Whilst preparing to leave for New Domino , Blitz , Tank , Nervin and Rally all say their goodbyes to Yusei , with Rally also giving Yusei the " Turbo Booster " card as a good luck charm to help him blast through the pipeline . Yusei thanks him and tells them he ' ll be back before speeding off down the abandoned subway , with Rally shouting " good luck " as he races off . Yusei exits the abandoned subway by shooting out of a crevasse in the road above . Detecting Yusei ' s presence on a monitor , Hanson , a Sector Security clerk alerts Trudge to his whereabouts to which Trudge races off to his Duel Runner , telling the clerk to keep track of Yusei before vowing to crush Yusei to bits . In the meantime , Rally , Blitz , Tank and Nervin race toward a rooftop and monitor Yusei via a tracker on a laptop . Trudge manages to catch up to Yusei and smashes into his Duel Runner in an attempt to slow him down . However Yusei speeds off , smashing through a barrier and then jumps over another gateway with Trudge following in haste , ordering the clerk to open the gate for him . After the two enter a secluded and clear pathway within the factory , Trudge states that it ' ll be a perfect place for him to test his new deck before imposing " Speed World " on Yusei ' s Duel Runner , forcing him into duel mode . As the duel begins , Trudge takes the first move , Normal Summon ing " Gate Blocker " in Defense Position . It appears in front of Yusei ' s Duel Runner , slowing him down . Trudge then sets one card and allows Yusei to take his move . As Yusei begins his move , his Speed Counter s don ' t increase which shocks him . Trudge explains that it ' s due to the ability of his " Gate Blocker " card . Yusei then thinks of the reason why he ' s attempting to escape then Normal Summons " Speed Warrior " . Trudge mocks Yusei for summoning something that can ' t damage his " Gate Blocker " . Yusei then remembers Rally and Special Summon s " Turbo Booster " . He then orders " Speed Warrior " to attack " Gate Blocker " , using " Turbo Booster ' s " ability to destroy it , taking 200 damage in the process . Yusei then thanks Rally for the help he ' s provided before driving down into the Pipeline . Trudge mocks Yusei ' s plan before activating " Broken Blocker " which allows him to Special Summon two more " Gate Blockers " from his deck as one was destroyed . Yusei then sets 2 cards and ends his turn . Blitz argues with Rally about how Yusei may not be able to make it as Trudge is slowing him down from the simulation practice . Trudge then Normal Summons " Gonogo " and proceeds to attack and destroy " Speed Warrior " . He tells Yusei he has no chance of escape as he ' s blocked on both sides . Yusei then takes his turn , Normal Summoning " Junk Synchron " . He then activates his set " Graceful Revival " , reviving " Speed Warrior " . He then tunes them both to Synchro Summon " Junk Warrior " . Yusei ' s friends cheer as Yusei summoned his ace . Yusei then destroys " Gonogo " with " Junk Warrior " . Trudge mocks Yusei ' s efforts . He then draws and Normal Summons his " Jutte Fighter " which shocks Yusei as he owns a Tuner Monster . Trudge insults Yusei for thinking he ' s the only one who can Synchro Summon . He then tunes one of his " Gate Blockers " with " Jutte Fighter " to Synchro Summon " Goyo Guardian " . " Goyo Guardian " proceeds to attack and destroy " Junk Warrior " with Trudge using it ' s effect to revive " Junk Warrior " on his own field . He then piles on the pressure by activating two " Speed Spell - Sonic Buster " to inflict two intervals of 1400 Effect damage to Yusei . Trudge then mocks Yusei from being from Satellite again , stating that he has no hope for escape . Yusei then says " All you ever say is ' scum ' over and over again , don ' t you know any other words ? " , then Normal Summoning " Nitro Synchron " . Trudge wonders what Yusei is up to as he has no other Synchro Material Monster s to which Yusei then activates " Speed Spell - Dash Pilfer " . Trudge is shocked as Yusei shouldn ' t be able to activate it as he has no Speed Counters due to " Gate Blocker " , however he looks at his Duel Runner monitor and sees that Yusei has 4 . He then looks at Yusei ' s Graveyard and sees that he had used " Slip Stream " when Trudge activated " Speed Spell - Sonic Buster " . Trudge then sees the exit to the Pipeline and realises Yusei ' s intentions . Trudge speeds up in an attempt to catch up to Yusei , but Yusei tunes his " Nitro Synchron " with " Junk Warrior " to Synchro Summon " Nitro Warrior " . Yusei then explains that as he activated a Spell Card this turn , " Nitro Warrior " gains 1000 ATK . It then proceeds to punch " Goyo Guardian " , destroying it and inflicting 1000 damage to Trudge . Yusei then explains the secondary effect of " Nitro Warrior " , switching " Gate Blocker " to Attack Position and forcing it to battle with " Nitro Warrior " , winning Yusei the duel . As Yusei wins , the timer goes to 0 , meaning that trash will flow through the Pipeline . Yusei then uses several Duel Runner tactics to avoid the debris and manages to skid under the escape gate before it closes , leaving Trudge to be crushed by the debris behind him . Blitz , Nervin , Tank and Rally watch the laptop anxiously as the marker indicating Yusei ' s location isn ' t beeping . They wonder if he got through , and then notice it beeping again .
