This chapter was first printed October 21 , 2012 in the 12 / 2012 issue of the " V - Jump " magazine . It was later reprinted in volume 5 of the . Summary . Leo repeats that Luna is trapped in the Duel Dragon ' s darkness , and begs him to save her . Yusei explains that the effect of his Quick - Play Spell Card " Spirit Battle " will cause the owner of the destroyed monster to take the ATK of the monster as damage . Luna realizes that they ' ll take 2100 damage , and their Life Points are at 2100 . Yusei tells the attack of his Dragon to echo in Luna ' s heart , and Leo closes his eyes , content , stating that finally , they ' ll be . . . as Luna grits her teeth in fury . " Stardust Spark Dragon ' s " " Shooting Blast " destroys " Ancient Pixie Dragon , " removing the Shadow Miasma from it , and reducing the twin ' s Life Points to zero . Luna , her skin returning to normal , drops her " Kuribon " doll and her storybook . Remembering that " someone special " gave it to her , and that it ' s her treasure , she leaps up and plants her foot on the seat of their Duel Runner , jumping after her book , to Leo and Yusei ' s horror . Leo brakes hard , crying out as he dives to catch Luna , tears falling from his eyes as it is revealed that Luna ' s own have returned to normal . The sun begins to set as Leo cries that he ' s so glad that Luna is back from the storybook world . Luna hugs him , telling him not to cry , as the book is fallen open on the page detailing the removal of the old woman ' s curse . The twins laugh and smile , as does Yusei . Later , he picks up the Level 6 Star Ticket - he now has a total of twelve stars . The twins , their hair tied up , thank him , Luna clutching her book . Yusei comments that that must be a really important book , and Luna smiles , explaining that Leo gave it to her , and it ' s her treasure . Leo laughs nervously . Yusei smiles at them , remembering the word " treasure . " He flashes back to his past , with Sect ' s goggles hanging on the wall of his home . Sect had asked him if he could call him " bro , " explaining that Yusei was tough and cool , so Sect wanted to be a Turbo Duelist like him someday . Yusei agreed , and he later witnessed Sect training hard . Then he remembers Sect ' s first Turbo Duel victory , driving past his defeated opponent with his " Great Poseidon Beetle . " The onlookers were quite surprised that Sect won , and he runs to Yusei , cheering that he got his first win . Yusei comments that all Sect ' s hard work paid off , and he gave him his goggles , which Yusei himself wore after winning his first Turbo Duel . Sect points out that they ' re really important , is it okay ? Yusei asks him what he ' s talking about , pointing out that Sect kept telling him he wanted them . He tells Sect that he did well , and he ' s a full - fledged Turbo Duelist now . Sect takes the goggles in his hands , tearing up , and puts the goggles on his helmet , stating that they ' re awesome , and he ' ll take good care of them . Back in the present , Leo admits that he doesn ' t think Yusei should go to the Duel Gate . The D1 Grand Prix isn ' t really a meet to find the world ' s best Turbo Duelist . Goodwin ' s using the Duelists in some kind of creepy ritual , including them . Yusei replies that even if he knows that , he has to go , kneeling down and placing his hands on Leo ' s shoulders . He reminds Leo of how he wanted to save Luna , and explains that there ' s a friend he needs to save too . He ' s waiting for him beyond the Duel Gate . Leo understands , doesn ' t he ? Leo begins to tear up again , and protests , but Luna interrupts him , and smiles at Yusei , wishing him safe travels , asking him to introduce them to his friend when he comes back . Yusei grins , promising to do so . He gets on his Duel Runner and speeds off . Leo asks Luna if she ' s sure it ' s okay to let him go . Anything could be waiting for him over there . Luna points out that even so , they can ' t stop him . Leo isn ' t convinced , but Luna reminds him that Yusei saved them . He ' ll bring back his friend too . Leo admits that he guesses she ' s right , Yusei keeps his promises . With 7 Star Tickets won , the twins have retired . At the twelfth Duel Zodiac , Crow ' s Mirror Match continues against the Dark Crow Hogan , with both Duelists on 900 Life Points . Crow has both " Blackwing Tamer - Obsidian Hawk Joe " and a new " Blackwing , " " Blackwing - Jul the New Moon " on his field , against the Dark Crow ' s own " Hawk Joe . " Crow comments that that Shadow Sense is something else . That , and he ' s fighting himself , talk about awkward . Laughing , the Dark Crow Summons his own Level 1 Tuner monster - " Blackwing - Jul the New Moon . " Crow isn ' t happy that Dark Crow is copying him again , and tells him to make his own moves already . The Dark Crow laughs , claiming Crow is howling over a possibility he can ' t reach , staring at the back of an opponent who ' s far ahead . Crow scoffs , like Dark Crow knows about him . But he does know , the Dark Crow claims ; he is him . He tells him to let him show Crow what he most wants to see . He tunes the Level 1 " Jul " with the Level 7 " Hawk Joe . " Crow is horrified - he doesn ' t have a Level 8 Synchro Monster . Reaching for the card in his chest , Dark Crow chants " Fly to us from the last days , cloaked in obsidian wind ! " as he Synchro Summon s " Black - Winged Dragon Black Feather . " As the darkened avian Duel Dragon appears , Crow is shocked ; that ' s what he wanted ? Dark Crow states that that ' s his Duel Dragon . Yusei speeds for the Duel Gate , thinking that in his Duel with Leo and Luna , " Stardust " saved them both from the darkness . He remembers Kalin ' s words ; the bond between Duel Dragon and Duelist is strong . The only way to seperate " Beelze " and Sect is through a Turbo Duel . He thinks that if he can destroy " Beelze " with " Stardust , " he ' ll be able to save Sect . Then he sees the Duel Gate up ahead . Tiger Eyes drives in , claiming that he ' s been waiting for him . Why mess with the Duel Zodiacs when he can just ambush guys who ' ve already got twelve stars . He tells Yusei that they ' re Dueling . The Duel ends with Yusei ' s " Gravity Warrior " destroying Tiger Eyes ' monster , reducing his Life Points from 700 to zero , and wrecking his Duel Runner with his Cross Sense . Tears filling his eyes , Tiger Eyes is flung from his Runner , protesting that it can ' t be . Yusei thinks that this flash of light that " Stardust " has given him will illuminate the road ahead , and he sees an image of Sect in the sky , thinking that he ' s on his way . At the Duel Gate , Admire Derby has arrived with the Level 3 , Level 5 , Level 8 , and Level 9 Star Tickets ( more then twice the number he needed ) , and he Sets them on his Duel Disk so that they total twelve , commenting that it ' s a pain . A voice declares that his Star Tickets are confirmed , and that he is the first . Duh , Derby comments . He remarks that there ' s no time limit on the second stage , which gives the first one through the Duel Gate an advantage in the final stage . The title of Duel Emperor , that pile of money , it ' s all going to be his . The Duel Gate opens ; a smaller door set into the larger one . Derby laughs that the big one ' s just for show , and he drives through . The door closes behind him , and he screams . In his control room , Goodwin , his jacket thrown over a chair , straps on a suit of armour with a cape . Victory and defeat , desire and resentment , all were for the fulfillment of his objection . He grins nastily , clenching his fist ; the energy generated by competition is the power necessary to revive the Ultimate God . He comments that the D1 Grand Prix has worked quite well as a woman in a white garb and corset steps out of the shadows behind him , her hair flowing over her face . Rex asks the " Duel Priestess Akiza Izinski " if she agrees . Featured Duels . Crow Hogan vs . Dark Crow Hogan . Duel is shown from an unspecified turn .
