Messengers of Destruction . Team 5D ' s prepare to face up against Team Catastrophe , the leader of which , Nicolas , has been given a card of darkness by Primo . Team 5D ' s are later visited by Breo , and study the memory chips of Jean and Andre ' s Duel Runner s , revealing something had caused their wheels to suddenly lock up and crash , the same reason why Crow crashed . After studying a video Carly gave them , the Signers believe it to be linked to a monster called " Hook the Hidden Knight " . Akiza gets hit by the same phenomenon , and her Psychic powers fail , as she loses it , to save her from getting injured . Crow gets upset and wants to go beat up Team Catastrophe , but Yusei convinces him to settle it in their Duel . Despite his arm not being fully healed , Crow decides to take her place in their match against Team Catastrophe . The first round sees Crow against Hermann , who instantly summons " Hook the Hidden Knight " . As it uses its effect against Crow ' s attack , Crow notices a strange hook aim for his wheel and barely manages to avoid it . It becomes clear to the others that this isn ' t a normal card . Yusei wonders just who Team Catastrophe is . Crow continues to evade the monsters shadow attacks , and manages to defeat it using " Black - Winged Dragon " and " Gravity Collapse " . Nicolas then takes over as the next Wheeler , claiming he still has one more card of darkness and then says to Jack that " Hook the Hidden Knight " wasn ' t his only card of darkness , shocking the gang . He activates it in an attempt to finish off Jack , but is surprised that the card is damaging him as well , but Primo says he ' s served his purpose . Jack manages to save himself and Nicolas by using " Power Giant s " effect . The explosion sends Nicolas ' s Duel Runner against a wall and blows up . Because they cannot pass their Duel runner on to their third person , they ' re defeated , resulting in Team 5D ' s victory . Sherry , who was watching the Duel try to see Nicolas ' s Deck , as she believes she has a lead to Iliaster , but the card she wants to look at vanishes . Meanwhile Primo sends out an army of Ghost , telling them to descend the City into chaos . Ghost Onslaught . The Ghosts invade the WRGP , Dueling people using Battle Royal rules . Those who lose crash . Primo watches , saying for them to draw the Circuit if they value their lives . Yusei and Jack learn about the Ghosts , and go Dueling the Ghosts , while Crow is talked into staying by Luna and Leo as he would just be a burden with his wounded shoulder . As Yusei , Sherry , and Elsworth deal with the Ghosts and defeat more , Primo has the remaining Ghosts all converge on them . Although they ' re able to ward them off at first with their Synchro monsters and Yusei using the Trap Card " Synchro Prominence " , Sherry and Elsworth are overpowered and defeated , leaving only Yusei to stand up to them . As Primo observes , he says the true hell begins now for Yusei and laughs . Yusei is afraid that if the Ghosts attacks continue he will lose . At this time Bruno gets back part of his memory by Iliasters god . Transforming back to his original self , he calls forth his Delta Eagle and heads over to Yusei . Arriving just in time , he uses " Buster Shotman " to remove the monsters the Ghosts played . After they escape the Ghosts , Primo decides to take care of Yusei personally , but Bruno hits his Duel Runner to make him lag behind . Bruno then tells Yusei that in order to get out of this crises , he must surpass his limitations and learn the way of Accel Synchro . He tells him to sharpen his heart , and reveals that the Momentum energy is living energy similar to a persons heart , and thus in a certain state one can control the Momentum . After conquering his fear of the Meklord Emperor , Yusei relaxes and enters Clear Mind , warping from the current location and re - appears outside the city where a Tablet awaits him . Yusei touches the tablet , and Z - one grants him " Shooting Star Dragon " stating all possibilities must be made equal . Meanwhile Bruno faces off against Primo , but midway in , more Ghosts intervene , just as Yusei comes back to challenge Primo . Primo is angered when Jakob and Lester warn him that Yusei obtained a new power and had a meeting with God . Primo then transforms and merges himself with his Duel Runner as they begin their Duel . As Primo starts breaking glass , Yusei imagines Zero Reverse and then tells him to stop and rams him repeatedly . He asks why he ' s doing something like this to the city . In response Primo calls him a fool , and that going against him is to go against Iliaster and " God " ( The three Emperors refer to Z - one as " God " ) . Yusei realizes his group is the one who tried to use Rex Goodwin and Roman Goodwin and bring destruction to the world . Primo responds Yusei was given a tablet and didn ' t even know that . He then laughs saying it seems God choosing Yusei was on a whim , so he ' ll crush him to his hearts content . Yusei readies his Deck and the two Duel with Primo ' s " Meklord Emperor Wisel " and Face - down " Divergence " already on the field . As the Duel progresses , Yusei wards off the Meklords effect to absorb his Synchros . Yusei eventually tries to use Clear Mind by tuning " Stardust Dragon " and " Formula Synchron " , but Primo ' s words block his concentration and it fails . Primo then absorbs Yusei ' s " Stardust Dragon " , leaving him in a dangerous situation . Yusei is frustrated at his Accel Synchro failing , but Bruno notes Yusei ' s mind was clouded which is why it failed . Yusei struggles to hold out against Primo for a while , until he uses " Rescue Warrior " to get back " Stardust Dragon " . Primo starts to cause a large tornado to go through the City , which causes havoc . Haluna gets sucked out of the building she and Akiza are in . Akiza wants to try using her powers , but decides not to rely on such things . Going outside , she manages to save the little girl , and realizes she no longer needs her Psychic Duelist powers . After some dialog between Yusei and Primo , Primo attempts to take " Stardust Dragon " again , but Yusei says " Stardust will not be taken again ! I won ' t allow such tragedys to repeat again . For that reason , I ' ll protect this city with my own two hands . " Yusei ' s Mark of the Dragon glows , as do the others . Yusei finally enters clear mind and performs Accel Synchro by using the bonds with his friends and the Marks , summoning " Shooting Star Dragon " . Lester says something troubling just showed up , but Jakob finds it interesting and says " So that ' s the card God bestowed upon you . Our Destiny predicted by God is getting away from us . If the power of the human ' s coming towards us , we must watch carefully " . Lester notes how great the Circuit is getting completed by this one Duel , but Jakob says this Duel alone won ' t be enough , for they must use the power of all the Signer s . Yusei defeats Primo by attacking multiple times with " Shooting Star Dragon " . Primo then breaks in half . Yusei goes over to him , but Jakob tells him he doesn ' t need the losers sympathe , as that ' s how a person of his calibre is . Upon seeing Lester , Yusei realizes he ' s the one who fought Leo and Luna . Lester says he was only testing them back then , and reveals that Lazar stole their Duel Engine program , which Yusei realizes that Primo then used them on the Ghosts . At this time Jack and Crow arrive . They learn that Iliaster is an organization that God created in order to guide the Earths history . Jakob says they existed since Ancient times . Sherry later shows up and asks if they were the ones who murdered her parents . Jakob says he can ' t remember the people who vanished for the sake of guiding history . Sherry trys to take him out with her Duel Runner , but Jakob catches it with one hand , saying she can ' t kill him with something like that . Elsworth trys to fight them , but is easily beaten . Jakob reveals that there is an unavoidable future because of Dr Fudo creating the Momentum . He also reveals they tried to use Roman to destroy it , but it turned out to be wasted effort because it did not vanish from history . He reveals they then came to this time to destroy New Domino City . Yusei asks what he means , but Jakob says if he wants to know the whole truth to enter the WRGP , as they will also enter . Jakob then obtains his tablet , gaining " Meklord Emperor Granel " and then leaves after briefly playing it for the gang to see . As the gang talk later , Yusei makes up his mind to settle things with the 3 Emperors in the WRGP . Journey to Nazca . Later Greiger has a dream of Jack being defeated by his own power . Jack is troubled and wonders if he can beat the Emperors with the way he currently is , to which Yusei says there is ( Greiger contacted them ) . Sometime after they arrive 3 days later , Greiger talks about his Dark Signer crime , but Yusei tells him not to blame himself . Greiger then reveals that after the war between the Signer and Dark Signers , the Earthbound Immortals were re - sealed , and they built a temple to pacify them . He also says lately animals have been dying and people were spreading Rumors that it ' s the work of the Crimson Devil . He thinks this is just the collection of an entity that is slowly leaking from the ground , and feels something is coming back to the land . Yusei asks if there ' s relation between it and Iliaster . Worried , Jack begins to wonder if it is possible that the Earthbound Immortal s could return . Greiger says he doesn ' t know , but laments he may not be able to seal everything . Greiger says he then had that dream about Jack being destroyed by his own power , and feels this isn ' t chance because he feels the same way he did when he was took over by an Earthbound Immortal . Greiger then has him Duel Max when Jack says power is his only way . As they Duel , Jack notices some cards that were not in Max ' s Deck ( he also notices something dwells in him ) , and is overpowered by Max ' s strategy . Jack is upset and Greiger apologizes , saying he hoped Jack would find another method of fighting . Jack says he ' s not throwing away power and leaves on his Duel Runner . As Jack ponders the Duel , he arrives at a small village . Seeing only an old man , he asks what happened , to which the man responds that it is the work of the Crimson Devil . Jack questions if this is the village Greiger was talking about and asks where the other villagers are . The old man says they all fled the village . Jack then hears an evil laugh and follows it . After getting back to the old man , Jack demands to know what he is . The old man ( whom is took over by Familiar of Red Nova ) tells him he is the Crimson Devil ' s faithful servant . He tells Jack to ask what it wants and he ' ll grant it . Jack states he wants overwhelming power that nobody can overcome . In response the Familiar tells him to come to the shrine and then leaves the old man . Meanwhile Yusei questions why Greiger let Max Duel Jack . Greiger says he doesn ' t know why , and a bit later he realizes he had been used . Jack goes to the shrine and vanishes , and Max shortly informs Greiger and Yusei of it . They notice a hidden corridor which Greiger states they did not build . Jack meets the Familiar and demands to know where the Crimson Devil is . The Familiar says he ' s been locked away for a while and has waited for Jack all this time . Jack demands power , to which the Familiar tells him on the condition they first perform a contracted ritual . He tells Jack if he wins , the Crimson Devil will grant him overwhelming power . Jack accepts and asks what the ritual is . The Familiar tells him it ' s of course a Duel . Jack once more says he wants power , and is then hypnotized by the Crimson Devil into saying " Begin the ritual " . The Duel begins just as Yusei , Greiger and Max arrive . Yusei attempts to run over to Jack , but the Familiar collapses the area so that he has no way to get to Jack , who ' s standing on a rock in the middle . He also blasts their exit so they can ' t escape . Yusei calls out to Jack who regains control only to see Yusei blasted against the wall by Familiar . Greiger apologizes to Jack , saying he and Max have both been used by the Crimson Devil to bring him to this country . Familiar although found out , states the ritual has already started . Jack says that ' s invalid , but the Familiar won ' t allow it , and once again reminds Jack he ' ll gain power if he wins , but if Familiar wins , Jack ' s body will become the Crimson Devils . Jack is surprised , while the Familiar says by taking on his flesh , the Crimson Devil will revive from 10 , 000 years of slumber . After a bit more talk , the Duel begins . As the Familiar blocks his power strategy , Jack realizes that the Familiar was the one controlling Max . Eventually the gang notice a red snake energy figure below Jack . Greiger remembers and says the Crimson Devil is an Earthbound Immortal . He states it is an Earthbound Immortal that was sealed away 5000 additional years before the other Earthbound Immortals . It fought the Crimson Dragon to exhaustion and was sealed in a hieroglyph , and that it is called Scar - Red Nova . The Familiar says that ' s right , an Earthbound Immortal not even the Dark Signers could use is his master . Jack begins to feel afraid . Outside , a sky geoglyph of the Immortal appears along with Dark purple flames . As the Duel continued , Scar - Red Nova kept getting stronger and was starting to brake free from its imprisonment . It tried to blow Jack off the rock , but Jack hanged on and got back up . Greiger notes how there was a Legendary Signer 10 , 000 years ago when the Crimson Dragon and its servants fought Scar - Red Nova . Using Burning Soul , he sealed the Earthbound Immortal away . Jack eventually begun to use a alternate strategy , so effective that it brought down the Familiar ' s Life Points to 200 . Although the Familiar tried to turn it around and even tried to kill Jack with falling debris , the Crimson Dragon appeared and stopped it . As it stayed next to Jack , Jack obtained Burning soul and sealed Scar - Red Nova into a card . Performing Double Tuning with " Red Dragon Archfiend " , Jack Synchro Summoned " Red Nova Dragon " . Using it , Jack wins the Duel and Familiar is crushed by a Statue . The Crimson Dragon gets them out in time and then leaves . Later Yusei and Jack leave . Yusei thinks for Jack to enter into their team , it must be the Crimson Dragon ' s doing . Jack says for him to use Burning soul , he must use Scar - Red Nova ' s power . He then holds up his new card while Yusei does the same , and each announces their ability , Clear Mind and Burning Soul . Jack states with these two new powers , they must stop Iliaster ' s ambition . Mystery relate to Lazar . Jack is upset that his favorite Ramen ran out at a shop , and gets into an argument with Crow . Shortly after they notice someone take cup Ramen from an old lady , but someone else comes out and stops him with a rope , knocking him off his Duel Runner . The old lady gives him a Cup Ramen to show her gratefulness , but instead the person takes them all and runs . The gang believes that person was Lazar . Following him they try to trap him and Yusei asks if he can tell them what he knows about Iliaster . However Lazar escapes from them . Jack comes up with a plan to lure him out again . Meanwhile Lazar has his Wife and Son eat Cup Ramen . Later the gang put their plan into motion by hosting a Red Demons noodle Duel contest , which works and they try to trap Lazar again . Although he gets away , Yusei , Jack , Crow and Bruno track him thanks to the transmitter Yusei planted on him before he fully escaped . Lazar refuses to tell them anything , so Crow suggests a Duel in which if Lazar wins they ' ll leave him alone , but if Crow wins he has to tell them what he knows about Iliaster . Lazar agrees and they Duel . Although Lazar fights back by trying to seal his Synchro Summoning , Crow fights back with " Blackwing - Aurora the Northern Lights " . A bit after this , Lazar ' s son and Wife show up , which surprises Crow that he has a family . Lazar says although it may not look like it , he is a respectful member of society , which Jack refutes due to him stealing Cup Ramen . Lazar tells him to can it and resumes the Duel . He turns the tables by " Jester Queen s " effects and attacks him directly 4 times , bringing Crow down to 800 Life Points . As Lazar ' s son praises him , Lazar says he will not let himself be caught by them or Iliaster . This angers Crow who thinks he ' s just running away for his own life , and says what Lazar doesn ' t understand is that he ' ll fight Iliaster no matter what . Lazar eventually says he fights not just for his life , but for his family ' s too , surprising Crow . Crow then holds back finishing him off with " Blackwing - Abrolhos the Megaquake " s effect , which gives Lazar another turn . Despite this Lazar ultimately sees his Face - down " Blackwing - Boobytrap " card by using " Jester ' s Panic " , but even knowing the effect he lets himself lose by destroying it . Although his son is upset , Lazar tells him not to cry , as he lost this fight so he could protect them . Lazar then walks over to Crow and the others , saying he ' ll tell them about Iliaster . Lazar at first tries to put it off , but Sherry loses her patience and Yusei convinces him to tell them . But after he tells them , they ' re still left with questions . They reveal that Iliaster intends to destroy the Momentum and New Domino City , which surprises Lazar . Lazar recalls that someone made an appointment with the 3 directors a while back and takes the gang to the database so they can gain it and learn who made the call . To get the password , one must complete a Duel . Although Lazar tries , he fails and the Cup Ramen man reminds him the match has to be settled in one turn . Akiza decides to try next and wins , but another timed Duel comes up . Jack gives it a shot , inflicting 3200 points of damage to the opponent , but he still loses since he couldn ' t settle the Duel in that turn . Jack argues with Crow , but Yusei says Jack didn ' t make any mistakes , it was just his timing . He uses Speed World 2 once to inflict 1600 damage due to having 2 Speed Spells in hand . Instead of activating Speed World 2 again , he focuses on boosting Jester Queen ' s points . After attacking he wins , and Lazar unlocks the data . What comes up on the screen is Momentum Express . Momentum Express infiltration . With Rick s help , they infiltrate the place and meet Clark . Sherry thinks she ' s met him before , but he says they haven ' t . They learn of a machine Infinity , which Clark ' s company is currently studying . In the machine , the planetary particles start to run at high speed to create a dimensional distortion , then creates a wormhole that is used to transfer material . As Yusei test Rides in a tube , Sherry and Bruno hack and try to learn the workings of the company . After needing an Access key to see what ' s behind a door they saw before , they go to Clark ' s office and get it , but they notice Clark coming . Yusei stalls for time by challenging Clark to a Concentration Duel in which the winner gets all the cards remaining on the table . Meanwhile Sherry and Bruno download all their data and try to escape . Yusei detects Clark ' s cheating , and after defeating him points out he knew where cards were based on his glasses reflecting them . Clark admits he ' s been beat , calling him Fudo Yusei , which Yusei asks how he knew his name . Clark tells him he knew who they were from the start by his company examining their finger prints and faces to find out who they were . Yusei thinks he is involved with Iliaster , but Clark states his friends are more important than that and presses a button to trigger an alarm . Yusei arrives to Sherry and Bruno , and they hide in a shuttle . It locks them in , and as the machine starts to warp the shuttle , Clark says Yusei will now disappear in between two periods . Bruno detects they ' re going to be sucked into a wormhole and says they have no idea where it ' s going or where it will drop . At this time Clark appears on a view screen saying their names . Sherry asks how he knows her name , and Yusei says he knew their identity from start . After Clark says they fell easily for his trap , Sherry thinks the company is involved with Iliaster . She thinks he must know who killed Dr . LeBlanc . Clark says he ' s familiar with that name . He says LeBlanc was a good human being , but he asked far too many questions . Dr . LeBlanc created the cards to complete infinity , but he had to know the true way to use the device . He says " Simply put , Infinity is a device that connects all time periods . Iliaster will use Infinity for the Falsification of history . " Clark goes on to say it isn ' t known to the rest of the world , and as such Dr . LeBlanc was disposed of . Sherry says unforgivable , but he says because he told them this , they won ' t return safely . Also he tells them the shuttle has no control card , and eventually they will enter the wormhole and be swallowed by the dimensions . He leaves , as the shuttle starts to break down . Sherry uses the card her Father left her , and it works as a shuttle card . However the glass breaks , and even though Yusei tries to save Sherry , she is sucked out . They arrive at a mysterious place . Dr . Fudo appears to Yusei , saying he shouldn ' t get close to it , and says " That is the place which leads to the destruction of mankind and the last Momentum . " before vanishing and saying for Yusei to return to his world . Meanwhile Jakob is not pleased that Clark tried to eliminate Yusei . Clark says he knew of Iliaster ' s secrets , but Jakob says he still plays an important role to them . Clark asks what ' s so important about him , but Lester says it doesn ' t matter , because it looks like Yusei isn ' t dead . Jakob states since Clark appears to know too much himself , they can no longer ignore his location and require him to disappear . Primo arrives saying it was already done and he should disappear now . The wave is emitted , which affects everyone but Team Ragnarok and anyone near Team 5D ' s marks . Clark vanished , and Lester says Primo is back so quickly despite being so hurt , but Primo says he won ' t die so easily from a Duel with Yusei . Team Ragnarok holds out their Polar God s , noting they had protected them from the wave . Meanwhile Team 5D ' s and Lazar head near the ocean , where a shuttle appears on the water , which Yusei and Bruno come out of . Crow thinks the mark was leading them to Yusei , but Jack says that isn ' t the case and points to an object in the sky . Leo and Lazar are unable to see it because they don ' t have marks . Later they learn that Sherry ' s team was replaced with Tean New World consisting of Jakob , Primo and Lester . Yusei explains Iliaster performed a Falsification of History to manipulate the past so the present is changed . Akiza wonders if Iliaster had such power why didn ' t they get rid of them , and Yusei guesses they may play an important role to them . Trudge and Mina arrive telling them the WRGP might be canceled , but eventually Lazar reveals himself . After leaving he takes over as directer and says the WRGP will continue . Yusei says they will try to find clues on Sherry . Elsworth says it shames him he didn ' t acknowledge Yusei until the end and leaves . Meanwhile Sherry wakes up in a white space . She believe she sees her father , but the person says it is just her heart showing him as such . Sherry asks who he is and he says he is one who knows the truth . He tells her if she desires to know the truth he can show it to her , but once she sees it her fate will change greatly . Sherry says she doesn ' t care and wants to know this truth he speaks of . Yusei ponders about his father and makes a realization . Team Taiyo saga . As Yusei , Jack and Crow practice , Leo reads a magazine at a store on Team Ragnarok and their Polar Gods . After he leaves , he runs into Yoshizo Hayashi of Team Taiyo and hurts his knee . As such , Taro takes him to his apartment . He treats his knee , and Leo then learns they come from the east side of the country to join the WRGP , and want to test how strong the guys here are . When Leo learns they made it to the finals , he says he ' s part of Team 5D ' s , shocking Taro and Yoshizo , but Jinbei isn ' t impressed . After the say their Duel Runner got crashed by the Ghosts , Leo offers to have Yusei repair it , but Jinbei gets angry which causes Leo to leave . He goes to Yusei still , and asks if he could repair their Duel Runner , which Yusei and Bruno agree to . When they get there , Jinbei stops them , and after some suasion from Taro , he allows them to help . Meanwhile Akiza informs Jack and Crow of a exhibition Duel with Team Ragnarok , which they agree to go have a look . Yoshizo asks Yusei for an autograph , however he is reprimanded by Jinbei for showing them their Deck . Team Ragnarok arrives near the WRGP , and for the exhibition Duel , Jack is picked by Dragan as an opponent . They Duel , with Jack bringing out " Red Dragon Archfiend " on the second turn and brings Dragan ' s points to 2200 . However Dragan Synchro Summons " Polar God - Thor " and it starts to resonate with Jack ' s monster . As the two clash , the Duel is called off due to the increasing cracking above everyone . Akiza and Crow are amazed at the Polar God . Yusei and Bruno fix Team Taiyo ' s Duel Runner , and promise to meet in the WRGP . The WRGP begins again , and for their first match , they ' re pited against Team Taiyo , who Leo didn ' t think they ' d have to face so soon . Team 5D ' s and Team Taiyo begin their Duel . Taro thinks back to the past and how he wanted to enter the WRGP with Yoshizo and Jinbei . Although Jinbei thinks they won ' t win against people like them , he agrees to it . Taro and Yoshizo buy a Duel Runner from someone and try to fix it . Taro ' s Father gives him a better Duel Runner and says it ' s bad if he doesn ' t say anything , and says he showed it to him because he thought he ' d go off somewhere . Taro says he won ' t come back , as he plans to enter the WRGP and stay there and wants to know whether it ' s possible to far . Taro and Yoshizo fix the Duel Runner and the engine starts up . But Jinbei says it ' s too bad it ' ll go to waste and throws cards near them . He says those are the junk cards he collected , and says with these cards they ' ll never win . Taro disagrees , saying you can Duel with any cards and picks them up while Jinbei sighs . As they sit down looking at the cards , Jinbei gets upset and leaves saying for them the WRGP is impossible . However Taro finds a card that will make it possible for them to Duel . As Jack and Yoshizo Duel , Yoshizo is able to block Jack ' s attacks with " Scrum Force " and " Holding - Hands Majin " . Jack eventually brakes his defense with " Fiendish Chain " , negating " Holding - Hands Majin " s effect and destroys it . As Taro and Jinbei talk , Yusei wonders if they have another strategy . Yoshizo tries to fight back with Speed World 2 ' s effect , but Jack counters it with " Crimson Hell Flare " , resulting in Yoshizo ' s loss . Jinbei now faces Jack and plays another " Holding Hands Majin " . This annoys the crowd and some protest he used the same card again and for him to try withstanding the Duel farther . However Jack detects by Jinbei ' s eyes that he ' s stalling for time . Crow asks if they plan on using the same card forever . However Yusei says he ' s selling something in there way of fighting and says he doesn ' t think they came here with the intention of losing . Luna and Leo wonder what secret they can expect when their Deck consists of mostly normal cards . Yusei wonders what Team Taiyo is trying to do . Yoshizo panics at the protesting crowd , but Taro says " It doesn ' t matter . Our battle will decide us . We have to believe in the way we fight in order to fight . " Jinbei thinks back to the past when he got upset saying with the crap cards they have , they can ' t win and runs out of the house thinking the town is useless to him , and that he ' s going to the city to find the strongest cards out there . As he walks in the sunlight , he thinks back to when Taro said " So , we can create a Deck with all the cards we collected . But , if you believe in your friends , then the power that you believe in will create miracles . That ' s the strategy I have " Jinbei doesn ' t see the point , and then notices someone having car trouble . He fixes it up , and the man brings him to a house . After he fixes an air conditioner , he notices a rare card ( which is " Trishula , Dragon of the Ice Barrier " ) and realizes they ' re from the city . During the night as they ride in the car , they accidentally bump into a motorcycle , which in turn enrages a bunch of Biker guys and they give chase . Although the person he helped fix the car leaves the other two people behind , Jinbei goes back for them and tries to reason with the Biker gang , but to no avail . Taro and Yoshizo act as Sector Security in order to make them leave , but the leader finds them as they escape with Jinbei on their Duel Runner . Sometime after they escape , Jinbei holds up " Key Mace " saying it is their hope . Around this time Taro says they will be called Team Taiyo saying " It rises with a bright and intense light everyday " . He once more says they ' re Team Taiyo and the 3 laugh together . Back at the present , Jack eventually tries to take himself out with Jinbei using " Overgain " and " Shockwave " , but Jinbei manages to stay in the game . After Jack tells Crow to not let them repeat their turns , Crow takes on Jinbei . He defeats him which leaves only Taro of Team Taiyo left . However seeing Jinbei and Yoshizo still confident , Jack thinks that faith should be reversed . Yusei notes for 16 turns they ' ve only used low level monsters and begins to think . Although Crow seems to have the upper hand , he becomes very nervous at seeing Taro enjoy the situation . Yusei finally realizes the card that requires the current situation , and says if that card appears , this Duel could end with them defeated . Team 5D ' s warn Crow with a pit sign that warns him of " Zushin the Sleeping Giant " . The crowd is confused until the MC clarifies Team Taiyo is planning to summon Zushin . He further adds a bit later that not a single Duelist in Duel monsters history has been able to summon it in an official game , and if it is called out , it will be a Duel Monsters miracle . The crowd starts to cheer on Team Taiyo , and even Halldor is impressed they got an audience to cheer for them . Crow tries to stop Taro from summoning it , but is unable to do so . After " Zushin the Sleeping Giant " is summoned , the crowd is amazed at witnessing it , and the MC says they ' re witnessing a Duel Monsters miracle that was brought on by an unknown Team , Team Taiyo . The crowd roar in excitement and keep cheering Team Taiyo on . Jinbei ' s father ( after bringing him inside a house to see Taro , Jinbei and Yoshizo on TV ) apologizes to Taro ' s father for what he said before . Taro ' s father says perhaps they kept them in the country too long and notes they ' re now shining so brightly . He thinks back to when Taro said he will come back after testing his true power . As he watched the TV , he hopes Taro will win . Taro destroys Crow ' s " Black - Winged Dragon " and finishes Crow off with " Power Throw " . Now Yusei is left to face Taro and quickly brings out " Stardust Dragon " . A crowd hold tons of " Zushin the Sleeping Giant " cards saying Zushin is unstoppable . Yusei manages to hold Taro back enough to Summon " Shooting Star Dragon " . Although he struggles against Taro ' s monster for a time , Yusei manages to defeat it using the card Crow left behind and " Explosive Breakout " . After the loss , Taro apologizes to Jinbei and Yoshizo , but they were happy they did their best . The crowd claps for them asking them to show them Zushin again . As Team 5D ' s congratulate Team Taiyo , the 3 Emperors of Iliaster watch , and Jakob says they will defeat Team 5D ' s to accomplish their goals . Team Ragnarok vs Team 5D ' s . Noticing the appearance of the Divine Temple in the sky , Yusei , Jack and Crow go over to investigate , where they run into Team Ragnarok ' s members , who all possess a Rune Eye , similar to the Mark of the Dragon . Halldor tells them about he got his Rune Eye and his Aesir , later recruiting Dragan and Broder , and uniting them with their powers . When Yusei realizes they entered the tournament to uncover the secret of Team New World , he suggests they join forces . Halldor says the Aesir ' s do not consider Team 5Ds their allies . Dragan then explains that three years ago , his father got hospitalized following a cave in . In order to pay for his hospital bills , Dragan had to follow Goodwin ' s orders and throw a match against Jack , along with his pride as a duelist . With both sides desiring to fight against Iliaster , the two teams decide to settle things in the semifinals . Jack gets the truth behind the fixed duels out of Lazar , who confirms what Dragan had told him . Jack becomes irritated as a result , so Yusei suggests he use the WRGP duel to regain his pride . In the match between Team 5D ' s and Team Ragnarok the next day , Jack and Dragan start off , and are surprised to find out that their starting hands are the same as their previous duel . Realizing the chance to do things properly , the two replicate their first turns from that match , this time , with Dragan being able to use his trap card , which Jack counters with his own . Dragan then brings out his Aesir , Thor , which manages to destroy Jack ' s " Red Dragon Archfiend " . As Dragan continues his attack , Jack starts to take real damage from Thor . However , Jack starts to make a comeback and summons " Red Nova Dragon " . However , Dragan activates a trap which weakens " Red Nova Dragon " , and protects Thor . Jack manages to pull off a tactic to return " Red Nova Dragon " to its full power , destroying Thor and defeating Dragan . However , before he loses , Dragan revives Thor and deals damage to Jack . Ragnarok ' s 2nd turbo duelist , Broder , takes over and uses Thor ' s special abilities to knock Jack out . Crow enters the fight , but his attacks prove ineffective against Broder ' s trap , and he takes a lot of damage from Thor ' s attacks . Noticing the support Crow gets from the children , Broder explains how he came across a similar group of children , expressing his desire to fight Iliaster in order to protect them . Having the same feelings as Broder , Crow brings out " Black - Winged Dragon " , but Broder brings out his Aesir , Loki , which destroys Crow ' s " Black - Winged Dragon " . With just 50 life points left , Crow ' s supporters almost get into danger while trying to cheer him on , reinvigorating Crow ' s resolve , and he soon manages to revive " Black - Winged Dragon " . Then , Crow activates a trap card from the Graveyard , which clashes with Broder ' s trap , knocking them both out . Yusei begins his round against Halldor , who quickly summons his Aesir , Odin . Yusei must now face the power of Halldor and all three Aesirs . As Yusei expresses his desire to defeat Iliaster and protect New Domino City , he gains the Mark of Crimson Dragon , and summons " Majestic Star Dragon " . However , Halldor manages to learn Yusei ' s strategy , and executes a successful counter . Halldor then activates a continuous trap card from his Graveyard , " Gjallarhorn " . Yusei faces not only all three Aesirs , but also a countdown from Halldor ' s trap card , Gjallarhorn , of which the end of the countdown means that the opponent takes damage equal to the combined attack points of all 3 Aesirs , at the cost of removing from play all 3 Aesirs in order to activate the effect , once the countdown has reached its end . At the End Phase of each of Halldor ' s turns , Gjallarhorn will gain 1 counter , and once it has 3 counters , its effects will activate . Which means that Yusei has only 3 turns to defeat Halldor . Yusei also had to face Halldor ' s increasing defense . However , Yusei summons " Shooting Star Dragon " and deals some damage , before using the trap , " Zero Force " , to reduce all 3 Aesirs ' attack points to 0 , resulting in Yusei taking 0 points of damage when the countdown reached its end . Now that all 3 of the " Nordic God " cards have been removed from play , Yusei then has " Shooting Star Dragon " attack Halldor directly , allowing Yusei to win .
