Anime Deck:

Elemental Hero: Jade uses an **"Elemental Hero" Deck**, which focuses on Warrior-Type monsters themed after superheroes. So far, she has been featured in the second most Duels next to Alexis out of all characters in the Yu-Gi-Oh franchise. The majority of Jade's "Elemental Hero" monsters lack power, but she supported them with a variety of Spell and Trap Cards to unleash effective combos. Jade relied largely on Fusion, as almost all of the "Elemental Heroes" introduced in the anime can fuse with each other, giving Jade's Deck many options in almost any situation. he further relies on recycling "Polymerization" to her hand and reviving or retrieving "Elemental Hero" monsters from the Graveyard. Jade's trademark "Elemental Hero" is "Elemental Hero Flame Wingman", which can be further fused into "Elemental Hero Shining Flare Wingman".

Neos: In her second year, after her second Duel with Aster, Jaden's Deck is left blank to his eyes due to Sartorius' powers. With the inability to use his old "Hero" Deck, Jaden received a new one that included the "Neo-Spacians", cards he created as a child for a KaibaCorp contest. The highlight of Jaden's new Deck is "Elemental Hero Neos", which can initiate Contact Fusion with the "Neo-Spacians" to summon Fusion Monsters without the need for "Polymerization". Jaden also includes support for the "Neo-Spacians" and "Neos", such as "Neo Space", to prevent the new fusions she Summons from returning to the Fusion Deck at the End Phase through their effects. he combines this Deck with his old one.

Evil Hero: While under the control of The Supreme King, Jaden used an **"Evil Hero" Deck**, consisting of more powerful, sinister Fiend-Type incarnations of his trademark heroes, such as "Evil Hero Inferno Wing" to "Flame Wingman", Summoned through the usage of "Dark Fusion". Compared to Jaden's normal Deck which relies on combos and often chance of the draw, his "Evil HERO" Deck relies on the brute force supplied by his monsters, which are immune to Spell and Trap cards when Summoned by "Dark Fusion". Jaden also uses "Super Polymerization" to use his opponent's monsters as Fusion Materials.

History: Jaden Yuki is the tritagonist of *Yu-Gi-Oh! GX* as well as the Fourth Protagonist of Yu-Gi-Oh! World Championship and the "reincarnation"/descendant of The Supreme King including Alexis Kaiba's Apprentice. At the end of the third season, he fused his soul with Yubel, his favorite card from childhood, with the use of "Super Polymerization" to purge her from the influence of The Light of Destruction. he is headstrong, optimistic, fun loving, and a talented Duelist who loves Dueling as much as he cares for his friends. he attended Duel Academy and was put in the Slifer Red Dorm, the dorm with the least privileges, due to his poor grades in the entrance exam. As time goes on, he becomes the academy's weakest Duelist by Alexis defeating him three times and saving the world and the academy from many threats such as the evil Kagemaru, The Light of Destruction possessed Sartorius and the malicious spirit Nightshroud. After three years, he graduates from Duel Academy and pursued his own journey to improve himself. he met Yusei Fudo during the journey when they teamed up with an alternate 1996 Yugi Muto to defeat Paradox who came from an apocalyptic future to undo the destruction. years later at 2023 Jaden reunited with Alexis after never seeing each other for 14 years and Jaden confessed his love to Alexis that day only to get rejected by the married woman who revealed she and Aster Phoenix are married and have a daughter known as Bella Phoenix. Jaden was through a lot of difficult challenges, chapters, fighting, tensions and more obstacles in his life for years during his career as a Pro Duelist and as someone who didn't do well in romantic relationships by having 4 failed relationships with Leo, Blair, Past Alexis from 2007 and Maya Kaiba the daughter of Mokuba Kaiba. since her transition and change including new life, Jade loves Jesse who's single since Alexis and Aster are married. Jade confessed as Jaden before her transition her love to Jesse and he rejected her because he is not interested. however at July 10 during lunch Jade and Jesse almost kissed but Jesse delayed the kiss by feeling not ready to do it yet in appropriate situation with people and that he should have relationship with her when they have a private talk. Jade is also mentored by Alexis as an Apprentice to achieve great heights and scores as a top racer. Jade is considered to be the sixth most powerful of all time next to her comrades as she won 11 Championships and she never lost a Finals match thoughout her career at all. Jade also is the first ever transgender duelist and racer in history as she was formely Jaden. her transition from male to female inspired some traumatized men to transition into women to move on from tragedies and all bad things that happened to them. Jade moves on from her former self by becoming a much more serious person and independent woman. she also is similar to Alexis since the new life begun for her and she's one of the greatest of all time. Jade's also a fashion model in the fashion world alongside Alexis duo to their beauties. at November 12 Jade teleported into Sonic's World duo to recovering her memories by the Supreme King but for tragic reason, the teleportation and landing suddenly transformed Jade into a Fox along with her female gender to male which caused her transition to be undone. no longer being who he's meant to be by his tragic chaotic transformation and teleportation, Jade was forced to change his name to Jaden again and he started to cry after screaming at Jesse in front of him. an emotional reunion happened with both Jesse and Jaden running at each other and then kissing to which both Gay Emperors kept holding each other during their most emotional kiss after Jesse decided to become Gay duo to not wanting to break Jaden emotionally as he is done with women because of his dark other birthright. Alexis and her friends, husband and daughter also reunited with Jaden who revealed he was trapped for two months at a World named "Digimon" where as a female he met a gay couple by the names of Tai and Matt who were casual friends with him by playing video games until he left without saying goodbye duo to having enough. Jesse also revealed to Alexis and Aster that he and Jaden are officially a gay couple to which the married couple told the gay couple to just be who they are without judging themselves and not stressing themselves too much. Jaden later at December 28 won his twelve Championship in a restarted Sixth Grand Prix Heroes Cup and won his first championship in career by unleashing Heat Supreme King Mode after the first contest of the Sixth Grand Prix Heroes Cup was a failure by Zane and Storm's tie per votes but the Championship celebration was cancelled by Jaden sleeping at his and Jesse's bed by extreme fatigue after collapsing at his celebration by his full power of winning the Finals after struggling and losing each race during the two contests to which after collapsing Jaden got rescued by his lover Jesse. with Heat Mode, in a process similar to Captain Marvel\Carol Danvers, Jaden and the Supreme King's energies and staminas are consumed as raw materials to produce a new type of nuclear energy and power full of heat and fire. the increase in energy was enough to shock and exhaust Aster, Zane and Bella who noted it being crazy and flaming. when in use, it dramatically boosts Jaden's reflexes, speed and power to such extremes that he even surpasses his own capabilities, allowing him to achieve the Heat Super Speed. the Supreme King notes that because all power is connected, contact with an opponent will exhaust them and catch them offguard. As powerful as Heat Mode is, it is extremely dangerous if used for too long or recklessly. Doing so will gradually drain Jaden's strength and stamina. Because of the extreme risk, Jaden must not make any unnecessary movements, nor act on any stray thoughts, focusing on only the most calculated of moves to keep Heat Mode stable. Even more, over-usage of this form comes at another risk at The Supreme King's stamina and strength altogether, effectively exhausting him. Upon reaching the exhaustion point, The Supreme King's entire being will be tired with fatigue, weakening Jaden along with his capacities. However, the Heat mode does not endanger Jaden and the Supreme King's lives but rather cost them heavy fatigue. his nerfing until March 15 however was due to his hyperactivity of unleashing Heat Mode at February 15 too recklessly and too long by goofing around and cheating in a survival game against Super Shadow and Super Knuckles including additional nerfing at May 22 until June 12 by three straight Heat and Supernova clashes with Jack Atlas in a day as both Jaden and Jack intentionally goofed around to determine who is the stronger fireman which ended up in Jaden's victories. since getting their powers back at June 12, Jaden and Jack use their Heat and Supernova Modes more carefully as they're both aware of all reckless decisions they made. at July 25 after messing up the chance of letting Jesse get married with him in a gay wedding by running away from everyone in embarrassment after taking out his blonde wig and white dress, Jaden hanged out alone all by himself at Metal City where Alexis found him and was forced to use Supreme Queen one last time on him to transition and transform him into a brown haired female swallow so the past will be left behind because of too much pain and trauma including Jaden questioning his own existence and where his path is. after getting what she desired back, Jade changed her name again and put her past and Jaden Yuki memories behind her to forget them as she chose to move on and become as strong as her mentor Alexis while chasing more championships and seeking to become the new greatest of all time to try to defeat Halldor in August 17's Heroes Cup. after Alexis teleported back home, she contacted Jesse where Jaden is causing him to teleport to the city only to find his lover now a swallow and woman. putting their pasts behind them to move on, Jade and Jesse got married alone without everyone as they desired to be alone in their personal second wedding.

Jesse eventually at August 1 witnessed Jade barely defeating Halldor at Sand Ruins Finals in the newest shocking, clutchest and most greatest moment since Alexis and Aster's clutch Game seven with Super Shadow and Super Amy at the Tag Ace Playoffs Finals. after incredible duels against Halldor, Jade won her thirteenth championship and ended the second ultimate Champion's dynasty and reign. the championship celebration was the second most emotional championship celebration in history next to Alexis and Aster as Jade was crying with tears and her husband Jesse comforted her and cheered her up before they kissed passionately to excite the fans even further. Dragan and Jet attended the celebration but Jasmine and all other competitors left with frustration for losing five straight times. however Halldor also didn't attend the celebration as he refused out of being shocked and stunned for barely losing his dynasty and barely losing to Jade yet he disrespected with unsportsmanship for not attending despite not being frustrated after enjoying a fierce tournament. despite Halldor's flaw, Jade successfully rebuilded her legacy with her former classic glory fully restored surpassing her husband Jesse and comrade Thor in championships making Alexis' mentoring and wisdom much more successful than any other mentor.

at August 31 the Heroes Cup proved to be a much stronger and serious contest as Jade during her 29th birthday celebration this time clashed with Burning Blaze in spectacular duels at the skies but Super Silver also clashed with them in historic showdowns: at Megalo Station, Blaze defeated Jade, lost to her back at Botanical Kingdom, defeated her back at Meteortech Premises, lost with her twice in a row to Silver for 2-2 tie at Aquatic Capital and Gigan Rocks and lost instantly with Silver to Jade at Crimson Crater causing the contest to start over by Blaze, Jade and Silver tied 2-2-2-2 after the defending champion refused to lose to Aster's Apprentice and defeated him instantly with intense high pressure comeback to try again and start over to make sure to win a fourteenth title this time. after the contest started over, Jade lost to Blaze again at Megalo Station and then instantly lost to her at Botanical Kingdom and Meteortech Premises after struggling by getting stuck and messing up a gravity drift causing Blaze to secure 3-0 lead and put Jade in an extreme risk on the verge of elimination. tired of this, Jade instantly defeated Blaze back at Aquatic Capital to force 3-1 deficit. at Gigan Rocks after spectacular sky showdown with Silver, Jade barely lost to Blaze in two seconds in a gravity drift sky clash after almost securing a second straight victory for 3-2 deficit and lastly at Crimson Crater, Jade instantly lost much worse to Blaze by finishing eighth and last place by struggling and getting stuck including falling in abyss everytime a gravity drift is messed up, officially failing to defend her title and fail the chance of a third started over contest by 3-3 tie causing Burning Blaze to win her third championship 5-1 instead and become the defending champion once more since defeating Super Shadow at October 2026 in the Third Grand Prix Heroes Cup. Super Silver finished as second place and runner up by losing to his girlfriend and Jade finished third place. after the competition ended, Burning Blaze, Super Silver and Jade landed from the skies at Sand Ruins arena where Blaze celebrated her third championship with her boyfriend Silver and rivals Alexis, Zane, Aster, Jack, Jet, Super Knuckles, Jesse and Super Shadow. however despite attending her friend and rival's celebration, Jade became emotionally haunted by her failure and defeat as she refused to enjoy by staring at the arena's pillar and walls out of trauma and pain for losing and failing to win a fourteenth title. minutes later duo to too much pain, Jade left the celebration of Blaze and began hanging out alone by herself outside at the desert plains while staring at the pyramids causing Aster to notice her and follow her. looking for a compromise, Aster talked with Jade about her failure and defeat but they both also argued by Jade refusing to compete again at September 17 at the sixteenth Heroes Cup out of blaming herself for her failure and consider herself "weak and wasted" causing Aster in response to scold her and motivate Jade about deserving her own justice and deciding to make sure she'll get the justice she deserves of defeating Burning Blaze in a rematch by unleashing Supreme King to full focus just like how Alexis' husband defeated her in a rematch with payback by unleashing Destiny King after losing before in a tough contest which motivated Jesse's wife and Alexis' sister as she realized she still has a chance of defeating Blaze and rebuild the legacy again if Supreme King and Clear Mind will be unleashed as a "cursed power to stop the arch rival from restoring her previous glory of two consecutive championships." after getting compromises, Jade and Aster returned to the arena and attended Blaze's championship celebration again where Alexis, Zane, Jack, Jet, Knuckles, Jesse, Shadow and Blaze asked them why they left causing Aster to reply to her he and Jade had a small tension that they had to solve in a compromise by how haunted she was by her defeat making Blaze comforting Jade and telling her in front of everyone they'll have a proper rematch at the 16th Grand Prix to determine who is the stronger woman and that she should not blame herself or doubt herself for the defeat that can make her stronger as the Supreme King causing Jade to accept the terms and tell Blaze they'll settle a rematch at September 17 to decide which of them is stronger and the next ultimate Heroes Cup champion since Dragan and Halldor.

at September 17 the Sixteenth Grand Prix Heroes Cup proved to be much worse than before as after two ultimate races at Gigan Device and Nightside Rush by beating each other back and forth with Heat Mode and Pyrokinesis unleashed, at Snowy Kingdom after fantastic first lap, Jade and Burning Blaze got stuck in the snowy plains and hills after getting exhausted by Heat and Pyrokinesis draining their energy and stamina to which they finished seventh and eighth place by losing instantly to Jet with the worst performances yet they also engaged in a fist fight of intense tension and argument about their lacking of performance and focus. the tensions worsened further as after finishing third and fourth place at Meteortech Sparkworks by losing to Jet again, Blaze and Jade lost two more embarassing straight races instantly to Jet at Tempest Waterway and Security Corridors by getting stuck and struggling with absurd performances, failing to keep the ultimate rematch and breaking the promises of passionate duels of fire and full speed while Silver finished second place yet Blaze and Jade violently engaged in a nasty fist fight again at the start of their finals race where Blaze intentionally fire punched Jade and fatally knocked her out by frustration before leaving her behind in crevice to finish seventh place in 3 laps to which Jade finished eighth and last place 20 minutes later after Jet defeated Silver again and won his third championship, becoming the defending champion once more since January 28's Seventh Heroes Cup. Blaze also failed to defend her title since losing to Aster in a rematch after defeating him the first time yet her and Jade's rematch proved to be each other's biggest failure as they got tired by wasting their energy and getting drained by their ultimate transformations of Pyrokinesis and Heat Mode as costs. after achieving his task once more, Jet and Super Silver landed from the sky at Sand Ruins' arena where Jet celebrated his third championship with his fans roaring to him MVP Chants and cheering for him to which Alexis and her friends, husband and daughter attended the celebration to respect Jet but Jade and Burning Blaze returned home with frustration and piss off after their worst tournament in their careers and after returning home Blaze and Jade engaged in a fist fight again, this time by throwing pillows at each other while talking trash with intense tension and anger for their failure. sensing what is going on, Alexis was forced to leave the celebration by teleporting back home where she angrily stopped Jade and Blaze from fighting and ruthlessly criticized and blamed them from their failures and dumbest plays of wasting their energies by reckless decisions. impatient for her sister and arch rival, Alexis took matters too seriously by punishing Jade and Blaze and forbidding them from competing in the 16th Babylon Cup including each month's next tournament duo to the reckless decisions angering Blaze and Jade even further.

at September 24 days after the second League season begun, Alexis and her friends, husband and daughter including Thor, Sif and Love celebrated with Akiza and Yusei their third marriage anniversary to which they all ate a lot of fancy food in historic party. however Jade and Burning Blaze were too distant and cold towards them by ignoring them and not caring by frustration and piss off since their rematch failure. when Mindy mocked Jade and Blaze about their failures and made puns and jokes on them, the two insulted her in response with dirty rude language yet Blaze and Jade both engaged violently in a pillow fight after talking trash to each other again after insulting Jasmine's fiance angering and scaring Akiza who begged Alexis to stop the two from fighting to which she replied to her she's going to deal with them yet Thor grabbed his hammer Mjolnir and started walking slowly to the fight but was stopped by Alexis who forced him to stay behind to eat with Sif and Love as she is the responsible one to deal with the conflict causing the God of Thunder to put Mjolnir back at the table and keep eating with everyone ignoring the situation per Alexis' request. keeping her patience out worse, Alexis stopped Jade and Blaze from fighting again yet argued with them when the two didn't listen to her. however Alexis decided it's her responsibility to bring an end to the new beef by arranging a personal tournament and battles to one more championship like her and Zane's beef cup score settling to which she revealed her intention to her sister and arch rival who calmed down by getting excited by the idea. deciding to make the punishment more effective however, Alexis called Broder from long distance to talk with her. Alexis gave Broder a mission to transform Burning Blaze into a swallow with Loki's magic once the tournament for her and Jade is arranged by the League front office to which Broder got delighted and made a deal with Alexis they'll make the new punishment effective once September 26's new beef tournament is arranged. this caused Blaze to get annoyed further as she was forced to not say anything while she is aware Broder will turn her into a swallow like Jade, Jasmine, Wave and Alexis as new punishment for her failures and violence once September 26's tournament for her and Jade will be arranged per Alexis' request to the League front office. however Blaze will be a swallow only at the tournament once she competes against Jade in a third rematch and once the tournament is ending with a championship victory, she'll get transformed back to her normal original self and shape by Broder once the punishments will expire except the first punishment of being banned from each month's Grand Prix tournaments. later at nine PM after celebrating with Yusei and Akiza their third anniversary, Alexis and her friends, husband, sister and daughter teleported back home to Sonic's World after bidding farewell to the retired legends. when she returned home after everyone returned to each room to sleep, Alexis sent a letter of permission request to the League front office based on her interest of arranging for Jade and Burning Blaze their own personal tournament to make them settle one final score in battles to one more championship and end their beef, violence and conflict and after sending her letter, Alexis returned to her room to sleep with her husband Aster. at September 25 at eight PM after dinner, Broder revealed to Burning Blaze and Jade the news about Alexis' request permission approved by the League as she successfully along with the managers and front office arranged for her sister and arch rival a personal tournament and competition for September 26 nine AM since her and Zane's beef cup that settled their final score of their history. this delighted Blaze and Jade as they talked trash again and claimed one of them wins the personal championship made for them yet Broder punished Blaze per Alexis' order and command by transforming the champion from a cat into a swallow thanks to using Loki's magic of shapeshifting angering Blaze until she realized her transformation and punishment is for the tournament only and that she'll return back to her normal self once the contest is over and once either she or Jade win the championship.

at September 26 the WomenBeef Cup proved to be Jade and Burning Blaze's strongest and most aggressive contest by far as they both violently clashed in fist fights three different races at Metal City, Egg Factory and Sand Ruins. at Metal City and Splash Canyon, Blaze barely lost to Jade two straight times by misplaying and at Egg Factory, Green Cave and Sand Ruins, Blaze defeated Jade back three straight races after aggressive violent duels except the jungle and barely won her fourth championship after Jade made a fatal mistake of not quickly dashing to the finish line and not defeating Blaze when she had the chance, a catastrophic mistake unrelated to her dueling skills and abilities. after getting her mission accomplished, Blaze celebrated her fourth championship alone at the arena with her fans roaring for her MVP Chants after she forced Alexis and everyone per phone calls to not attend at all by how much she wants to remain alone to reflect on what she was through that helped her reach her success. however both Jade and Blaze refused to become best friends again for unclear reasons as they decided to leave each other alone with huge disrespect and no redemption or sportsmanship to which Jade returned home with frustration and piss off for losing a third consecutive time and a second time to Blaze who celebrated her fourth title alone. two hours later, Broder arrived at the arena, used Loki and transformed Blaze back into her normal original self as the punishment expired but she and Jade are still banned from competing at each Grand Prix each month until Alexis decides to bring them back when appropriate for her. after celebrating her fourth title alone, Burning Blaze left the desert to Snowy Kingdom where Super Silver waited for her to which they both embraced and kissed passionately before hanging out together in a romantic date to celebrate Blaze's victory of her final championship. hours later since the WomenBeef Cup was over, Jade gets harshly criticized by duelists and people since she failed three times and lost three straight tournaments and two times to Burning Blaze. however Alexis' sister and apprentice gets also nicknamed harshly as "the biggest new insult and fake Alexis" duelists expressed their opinions about Jade and her failures in interviews. as she is harshly in mental trauma and emotional state since losing three straight tournaments, Jade also doesn't talk at all to her husband Jesse causing him to not talk to her at all by just comforting her about pain before the two embrace, hug and kiss even if Aster and Alexis both give Jesse advices to flow with the situation. however despite her and her husband's love, Jade from September 18 to September 31 suffered continuous losing streaks by losing instantly many times.

eventually at October 29 in Tournament 36 weeks after leaving Sonic's World, after defeating Zane and Sheppard in historic fifth tournament semifinal rematch of the two arch rivals, Alexis and Jade dueled their father Seto Kaiba and idol Pharaoh Atem\Yami Yugi in an historic Finals match that was Alexis, her father and Atem's Finals rematch since Thor and after historic duel since Battle City, Alexis and Jade barely defeated Kaiba and Atem to defend their titles and win together with their team their 28th championship and seventh three peat in franchise history with Alexis winning her thirty championship and securing her seventh three peat, Aster winning his eleventh, Crow winning his twelve, Chazz winning his sixth, Bastion winning his seventh, Yugi winning his seventh surpassing Atem, Bella winning her fifth, Jack winning his seventeenth and Jade winning her third finally redeeming herself and putting her catastrophic dumbest decision against Blaze behind her to move on and become as strong as her mentor. during the championship celebration, Alexis and Aster kissed passionately exciting the fans. since nine and fifty until one the Avengers of Love celebrated their 28th championship with their fans in another historic stylish parade as they're officially the greatest superteam of all time since the Avengers. since one and fifty until four, the team at each respective home relaxed and watched TV. since four and half until five and half, they ate lunch before relaxing and watching TV again.

at January 13 2028, Zane with his All Star Team defeated Alexis and her All Star Team and won the All Star Championship in the Duel Puzzle Contest to which Zane won his third championship, Bella won her sixth, Jade won her fifteenth, Halldor won his fifth and Joey won his first title. for the first time in his career, Zane defeated Alexis only once in the Duel Puzzle Contest after losing to her seven straight tournaments in three years.

year later at April 23 2029 at the World of Pokemon, during a deep conversation with Barry who was rejected by his one-sided crush Lucas, Alexis revealed to Barry, Jaden and Jesse's gay romantic relationship as they are officially together and dating according to a recent contact from Zane at midday exciting Barry to discover another tale about Alexis' gay friends and previous arch rivals she defeated in the Chicago Pro Circuit's First League Season games. as a result of Alexis' explanations, Jaden and Jesse at their own respective world are officially dating.

at June 11 in his 32th birthday, Jesse suffered his worst embarrassing celebration of his life by getting swept with Jaden by Zane and Cassandra 20 straight times for Zane's 260 continuous wins the best record in Cyber Style franchise history. in a postgame interview hours later since getting swept with Jaden who joined him in the postgame interview, Jesse expressed his embarrassment and shame about his and his boyfriend's worst losing streak against Zane and his team and fiance, Bastion and his team and wife and Kaiba and his team and son since the third Chicago Pro Circuit season started at May with Zane being the ultimate undefeated greatest duelist since Alexis before him. furthermore, Jaden replied to the next reporter by explaining him about all aspects of failure and success including Alexis' legacy and rare tournament losses yet Jaden also claimed he and Jesse will come back stronger next year at 2030 to try to build good dueling habits in their relationship and that this time Zane and his team and fiance are winning including Bastion and his team and wife, Mindy and Jasmine and Crowler and her team and son while all other worst teams including Marik's team keep losing instantly by dumbest plays and messed up combos. at July 12 after too much days of arguing and bickering with Jesse in their gay romantic relationship, Jaden decided to announce to the public he and Jesse will retire and reunite with Alexis, Aster and Bella offworld in April 1 2030 once the Sixth World Championship Playoffs will end next year causing Zane and everyone else to not care out of considering the gay couple too embarrassing.

at August 1 for the first time in history, Jaden and Jesse clashed with Zane in their first Finals match together, making Alexis proud at her apprentice and friend while she watched them on TV with confidence after teaching them strong lessons for the better, to which Bella also watched with her mother the match yet her father Aster was taking a shower and shaving his beard. Zane and Jaden then greeted each other about getting their game on properly this time, getting confident in their fight to determine the best duelist shall win the championship. in the historic Finals, for minutes, Cassandra and Zane strongly fought with Jaden and Jesse in intense high pressure fighting which excited and hyped the fans to extremes to yell and cheer louder. in the closer, after critically alongside Jesse damaging Zane and Cassandra directly, Jaden secured comeback with Wildedge in his final turn, attacked Zane directly with the sword to defeat him and win the most meaningful fourth championship, only to get countered and blocked by Zane stopping the attack with Mirror Force destroying Wildedge in response, causing Cassandra to barely save Zane in the closer and defeat Jaden and Jesse directly with fatal Cyber Twin Dragon 5600 ATK Power Bond after Yuki missed his greatest killshot, compared to Zane missing his greatest killshot to get defeated by Alexis in their Battle City GX Chessmatch. after defeating Jaden and Jesse in epic battle, Cyber Style won their twentytwo championship in franchise history and succeed to defend the title again with the ultimate dynasty greater than Alexis' Avengers of Love dynasty. despite almost losing in his second greatest finals, Zane won his twentythree championship, Cassandra won her eighteenth, Alyssa won her nineteenth and Sheppard won his fifth.

at October 7 since their losing streaks worsened sixth straight time, Leon was too much pissed off at his team in the locker room in their timeout discussion meeting since getting embarrassed by Zane and his team and fiance easily. Leon then insulted his leaders with dirty words, demanded Yugi and Kaiba to trade him to one of the teams, either Bastion's or Zane's in exchange for a duelist, yet Kaiba and Yugi disagreed with the demand, trying to convince Leon to stick around, only to get cursed back in response. the team then argued about their blowouts, worsening their broken chemistry. after arguing in drama, Kaiba and Yugi hours later at evening since their rough conversation decided to trade Leon to Jaden and Jesse in exchange for Alexis. after accepting the trade offer, Alexis rejoined her previous team, husband, daughter, brother, cousin and father, not telling them anything since she got chosen back as leader by her father passing the leadership to her, to which Alexis will never leave her main team again, with Jaden and Jesse with their own leadership having a chance to mentor Leon and help him win as their own Apprentice, yet Jaden was chosen as the leader instead after defeating his boyfriend Jesse in a rock paper scissor coin toss.

Biography:

Childhood: Born at August 31 1999 Jaden Yuki is the child of two unnamed parents. he also has the power to communicate with spirits since his birth. As a child, Jaden loved *Duel Monsters*. His favorite card was "Yubel," which was a gift from his father. Both his parents were rarely at home, as they were busy working. As a result, Jaden spent many of his days playing Duel Monsters with neighborhood children. However, whenever Jaden played "Yubel", something horrible would happen to his opponent. One of them, Osamu, fell into a coma. The spirit of the "Yubel" card was overly protective of Jaden, and punished his opponents. After that incident, no one wished to Duel Jaden, as they feared for their safety.

Around this time, Jaden entered a card design contest held by KaibaCorp, and won with his monster designs, which included the "Neo-Spacians" and "Dandylion." As part of the project, the cards he designed were launched into space, with the hopes that the cards would be imbued with space waves. Jaden requested that his "Yubel" card be sent up in a separate capsule, in the hopes that the space waves would pacify the malicious spirit of the card. Soon after, Jaden began having nightmares, where he would see Yubel burning in flames. Worried, his parents arranged for him to have a medical procedure performed on him, which rendered his memories of Yubel dormant.

Duel Academy:

at 2004 Jaden overslept on the morning that he is scheduled to take his entrance exam in order to enroll in The Academy. As he rushed through the streets to make it to the test center in time, he bumped into Yugi Muto, dropping his cards in the process. Yugi asked Jaden if he was a Duelist and gave him a "Winged Kuriboh" card, telling Jaden that he felt that "the card belongs with him." When he arrived, the head teacher at Duel Academy, Dr. Crowler, was hesitant to allow Jaden to take his exam, but a phone call from his superior, Chancellor Sheppard changed his mind. Crowler Dueled Jaden himself, and disregarded the rule that he is to use an exam Deck, instead using his personal Deck. Jaden is impressed by Crowler's "Ancient Gear Golem," but is able to hold off its attack with "Winged Kuriboh," whose spirit he is capable of seeing and communicating with, something that most people would not be able to do. He proceeds to win the Duel using "Elemental Hero Flame Wingman" and "Skyscraper," with him citing the former as his favorite card.

Jaden is accepted into Duel Academy and is placed in the Slifer Red dorm, which is the lowest-ranked of the three dorms. Jaden's roommates were Syrus Truesdale and Chumley Huffington. Jaden would then get himself in a confrontation with Chazz Princeton, an Obelisk Blue student who had witnessed Crowler's defeat to Jaden. Believing his victory to be a fluke, Chazz challenged Jaden to a Duel, which is interrupted midway through. Though Chazz believed he would have won, Jaden had just drawn a card that would win him the Duel. Dr. Crowler, eager to exact his revenge on Jaden, began plans to get him expelled. He placed a fake love note in Jaden's gym locker, on which he had forged the signature of Alexis Rhodes, one of the top female students. Syrus found the note instead of Jaden, and rowed across the lake to the girls dorm. Jaden instantly lost to Alexis however in a duel and failed to save Syrus from being expelled but after her victory, Alexis chose to not expel them and keep them because of their potential to improve for the better much to Crowler's anger. Jaden got trained by Alexis as an Apprentice and he became the best duelist of Slifer\Osiris Red and The owner of Duel Academy's card shop, Ms. Dorothy, gifted Jaden with some rare cards after he helped her push her van up the hill when it stalled. In Duel Academy's promotion exams, Jaden had his rematch with Chazz, who had been supplied powerful cards by Dr. Crowler. Jaden's use of "Transcendent Wings" to evolve "Winged Kuriboh" to level ten won him the Duel, and he is therefore allowed to move up to the Ra Yellow dorm but he declined the opportunity.

Crowler's crusade against Jaden continued, with him sending Titan, a self-proclaimed "Shadow Duelist" to defeat Jaden. Titan used illusions to make it appear he had the ability to start Shadow Duels. Jaden was skeptical throughout the whole Duel, and is proven correct - it was a sham. They Duel in the Abandoned Dorm, and the spirits of the dorm are angered by Titan. A real Shadow Duel actually did begin - with Jaden still refusing to believe in it until the Duel's end, when he is saved by Winged Kuriboh. Due to their trespass at the Abandoned Dorm, both Jaden and Syrus were nearly expelled. They got a chance to stay by participating in a Tag Duel. Should they win, their records would be cleared. Jaden Dueled Syrus as practice for the latter, and Jaden defeated him. Finding that Syrus had confidence problems, he is then told by Alexis that they stem from Syrus' relationship with his older brother, Zane, who is known as the best Duelist at the academy. Determined to help Syrus and to see how he ranks against the best, Jaden challenged Zane to a Duel. Though the latter compliments Jaden's abilities, Jaden suffers his second loss since arriving at the academy and losing instantly to Alexis, losing to Zane's "Cyber End Dragon." Despite this, it is enough to spur Syrus' confidence. The two were unable to function as a team in their Duel against the Paradox Brothers at first, but pulled things together in the end, allowing them to stay at the academy.

Jaden developed a friendship and rivalry with Bastion Misawa. Both had expressed desire to Duel one another since witnessing their respective entrance exams. After Bastion's victory with a Duel against Chazz, he was offered a promotion to Obelisk Blue but declines, stating he will not enter it until he becomes the best student in the freshman class. To do so, he believes he needs to defeat Jaden or Alexis. However, he does not wish to Duel them right away, as he wished to develop a Deck specifically to counter Jaden's or Alexis'. Jaden stayed at Duel Academy during winter break, finding himself in a life-threatening Duel with the spirit of the "Jinzo" card. Jaden felt real pain as his Life Points decreased, and his body parts fade as he is attacked. Though he wins, he gets his first taste of a Shadow Duel, though he does not realize this until a later date. Jaden then found himself in a Duel over the affections of Alexis against the captain of Duel Academy's tennis team, Harrington Rosewood. Harrington gets an early lead during the Duel with his "Ace" cards. After Jaden deals major damage to him via direct attacks, he then activates "Deuce" and almost wins with its effect, but Jaden was able to save himself win the Duel, becoming Alexis' fiancee as per the terms that Harrington set. However, he has no clue what fiancee means. Alexis calls him an idiot in response and explains to him what marriage and engagement mean much to Jaden's confusion.

Jaden got an opportunity to Duel against the Deck of Yugi Muto when the said Deck went on tour at Duel Academy. A copycat Duelist named Dimitri stole the Deck and Jaden Dueled him to get it back. He found himself in awe of Yugi's monsters, and was excited when he defeated "Dark Magician" with "Elemental Hero Bladedge". However, Dimitri Summoned "Dark Magician of Chaos," which devastates Jaden. He hung on, and successfully defeated Dimitri with "Flame Wingman," recovering the Deck. Jaden is nominated by Zane to be the academy's representative against North Academy, with Chancellor Sheppard accepting it. Crowler nominated Bastion in response, and he proposed the two of them Duel in order to decide who the representative would be. Bastion claims that he's nearly finished his Deck that will counter Jaden's strategy. Jaden gained an early advantage in the Duel, but is set back when Bastion negated "Polymerization" with "Cursed Seal of the Forbidden Spell", preventing Jaden from Fusion Summoning in the usual way. Jaden is forced to play defensively as Bastion's "Water Dragon" and "Hyozanryu" destroyed his monsters. Jaden unveiled a new "Elemental Hero" - "Wildheart." Using it and and "Cyclone Boomerang," Jaden won the Duel via effect damage. Bastion then promised to create another Deck to challenge Jaden again someday. Jaden found his rivalry with Chazz renewed when the latter returned to Duel Academy as the representative of North Academy. Jaden overheard an outburst of Chazz's, in which he expressed dislike for the burden his brothers put on him to win. Chazz unveils new "Armed Dragon" cards which prove to be more effective against Jaden than his previous Decks had been. Jaden is surprised to discover that Chazz has gained a Spirit Partner in Ojama Yellow and that Chazz can see Duel Spirits as well. Jaden won using a strategy involving "Hero Kid." Chazz's brothers berate him after the Duel, and Jaden steps in to defend him. Chazz decided to remain at Duel Academy afterward.

The Slifer Red dorm head and alchemy professor, Lyman Banner, held a hike and picnic to the ruins that exist on the island. Jaden, Syrus, Chumley and Alexis attended. While there, they appear to be transported to the past, to a time when the ruins were still in use. Jaden's friends were captured, but Jaden himself is saved by Yasmin. He eventually ends up in a Duel against Gravekeeper's Chief, in which he and his friends will be buried alive if he loses. He found that the pain he experiences from losing Life Points to be real. Jaden narrowly defeated the Chief by using the effect of his "Elemental Hero Necroshade" to Summon "Elemental Hero Bladedge". The Chief gifted Jaden with one half of a Shadow Charm pendent after the Duel, stating that it should help protect him in any further Shadow Duels he may participate in. The group is returned to their own time.

Chancellor Sheppard selected Jaden as one of the seven Duelists to hold the Spirit Keys. These keys unseal the Spirit Gates, behind which the Sacred Beast cards are sealed. The legend goes that if the cards are released, a catastrophe will occur. A group of individuals known as the Shadow Riders will arrive and attempt to steal the keys. Jaden believed he will be targeted first, believing himself to be the strongest target. Alexis also believed Jaden will be first, as his Slifer Red uniform marks him as a weaker Duelist. In attempting to warn Jaden of this, she is transported to the volcano with Jaden, where the first Shadow Rider, Nightshroud, awaits. As it turns out, he targeted Jaden for neither of the previously given reasons - he did so because he owns the other half of the Shadow Charm pendent, which pointed him in Jaden's direction. Syrus and Chumley are taken hostage, so Jaden accepted the Shadow Duel, in which the loser's soul will be sealed in a card. Nightshroud gained an early advantage by combining "Red-Eyes Black Dragon" and "Inferno Fire Blast". Jaden made a comeback, but Nightshroud unveils "Red-Eyes Darkness Dragon". Jaden narrowly avoided defeat by Summoning "Elemental Hero Wildedge". Nightshroud's soul was sealed in the card, but he remains barely conscious, as Nightshroud was controlling someone else - the brother of Alexis, Atticus Rhodes.

Left weak from his Duel with Nightshroud, Jaden watched from the sidelines as Dr. Crowler is defeated by the second Shadow Rider, the vampire known as Camula, having his soul sealed in a doll in the process. He then also witnessed Zane who meets the same fate when Camula threatens Syrus' soul. Enraged by the fall of his friends, Jaden challenged Camula after Atticus informed him that his complete Shadow Charm may be able to negate the power of Camula's and prevent souls from being stolen during the Duel. This turned out to be true, as Camula is forced to use her own soul as a cost in the activation of "Illusion Gate," rather than a spectator's as she had against Zane. Jaden was able to defeat her with "Elemental Hero Shining Flare Wingman," who gains ATK for each fallen "Elemental Hero" in the Graveyard. With this, Camula's soul was taken by "Illusion Gate" and the souls of Crowler and Zane were restored.

Jaden began having nightmares regarding losing Shadow Duels, knowing that great harm could come to his friends. While trying to relax at the hot springs, he, Syrus, Chumley and Chazz are pulled through a portal to an underground cave. They are confronted by Kaibaman, causing Jaden to question if the latter is a Shadow Rider. He refused to answer, instead wishing to Duel, stating that Jaden seemed to have lost his fighting spirit. Kaibaman used the same Deck as Seto Kaiba, and Jaden is ultimately defeated. However, he realized that he still had fun during the Duel and Kaibaman taught him that if he is scared of defeat, he will cease to grow as a Duelist. Jaden is present when Bastion is defeated by the third Shadow Rider, Tania, who takes him as her "husband" afterwards. Jaden overcame her "Amazoness" monsters using "Wildheart" and the effect of her own Field Spell Card, "Amazoness Arena". Jaden ends up mistaking a submarine captain named Admiral for the next Shadow Rider and though Jaden defeats him, Admiral kidnapped him, hoping to make him the top student at his planned underwater Duel Academy. Jaden stole an escape boat in order to get away, but did not make it back to Duel Academy until three days later.

Jaden's next opponent was Abidos the Third, an ancient pharaoh revived by the Shadow Riders who was once known as the "God of Duels." Jaden defeated him with fewer problems than expected, and Abidos realized that his servants had always let him win. Abidos is impressed by Jaden's Dueling and returns to the afterlife, with Jaden promising to meet him there when he dies so that they can Duel again. Alexis and Chazz successfully defeated Shadow Riders Titan and Don Zaloog, respectively. After that, only one Shadow Rider remaining. During this time, Professor Banner disappeared, and Chazz is defeated by the final Shadow Rider after Alexis defeated and instantly destroyed a clone Shadow Rider. Jaden confronts the rider in the basement of the Abandoned Dorm. He eventually revealed himself as Professor Banner. He stated that Jaden must prove himself as the "ultimate alchemist", comparing Jaden's process of using "Polymerization" to fuse monsters to be similar to alchemic processes. Banner explained that he came down with an illness after traveling the world in the name of alchemy, and was forced to entrust his soul to a homunculus in order to survive. Wishing to pay back the one who funded his research, he aimed to obtain the Sacred Beasts. Banner is eventually defeated when Jaden countered the latter's removed from play strategy with "Elemental Hero Electrum." Banner left his Emerald Tablet Shadow Charm to Jaden, warning him of the impending disaster that the Sacred Beasts will bring about.

After Chazz's Duel against Alexis, Jaden witnessed the Spirit Gates open, without the aide of the Spirit Keys, which Chazz currently had. The keys led them to the gates, at which point the keys disappeared into the seven pillars surrounding the area. The ground quaked, and a black box rose from the center of the gates, inside of which was a smaller, box that contains the Sacred Beasts. The true mastermind of the ploy revealed himself - Kagemaru, the elderly Chairman of Duel Academy. He intends to use the powers of the Beasts to restore his own youth. He specifically challenged Alexis to a Duel in favor of rest of the gathered students and teachers. Jaden found "Sabatiel - The Philosopher's Stone" inside the Emerald Tablet, and places it in his Deck but he is annoyed Alexis duels instead of him. From within a life support tube supported by a spider-walker, Kagemaru Duels Alexis. Kagemaru Summoned "Uria, Lord of Searing Flames" and "Hamon, Lord of Striking Thunder," which drove Alexis into a corner. With two Beasts present, they began to absorb energy from card spirits around the world, which was then used to restore Kagemaru's youth. He appears a young man once more, and continued the Duel. Using a series of Spell and Trap Cards, Alexis destroyed both of the Beasts with "Mirror Force." Kagemaru was able to revive them, however, and further Summoned the third Beast - "Raviel, Lord of Phantasms." Alexis used the "Megamorth" card to her advantage because of 100 life points, and was able to pentuple the ATK of "Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon" to win the Duel. The power absorbed is returned to the Duel Spirits, and Kagemaru became elderly once more. He begged for forgiveness, and Alexis easily gave it to him, while motivating him to try to stand on his own. Kagemaru however collapsed after his back strained much to Alexis' surprise.

Jaden was present at Chumley's Duel with Dr. Crowler, and supported his friend before he departed to become a card designer for Industrial Illusions. Jaden is then chosen by Zane to be the latter's final opponent before his graduation, in a match that the whole school will attend. Jaden accepted the Duel. Knowing that Zane was a powerful opponent, Jaden attempted to think his way through the Duel, which backfired as he misplayed his cards and failed to enjoy himself as he usually would.. Zane gains an advantage by constantly fusing and splitting his "Cyber End Dragon". Zane snapped Jaden out of his rut, and the latter began to Duel with his heart once more, rather than his head. In this way, Jaden became the opponent that Zane had wanted him to be. Both Duelists were able to counter the strategies of the other, and Duel ultimately ended in a DRAW as the crowd applauded the spectacle.

Jaden has begun his second year at Duel Academy. Unaware of new student Aster Phoenix's status, Jaden Duels him, eager to teach a new student about Dueling. During the Duel, Ms. Dorothy reveals that Aster constructed the Deck out of eight packs of cards he purchased that morning. Jaden attempts to give him advice, which Aster pretends to take. Aster is not impressed by Jaden, and leaves after being defeated. Later, after the Duel, Syrus Truesdale realizes who Aster really was, and Jaden is eager to have a rematch with Aster when the latter is using his true Deck.

A few days later, Syrus and Jaden are walking through the woods. The duo got caught sleeping in class, so Crowler is making them deliver 14 new Duel Disks to students who had lost theirs. Jaden wonders why so many people were losing their Disks, and Syrus explains it's because of a bully that is challenging them to Duels and then taking them. Syrus had lost to this bully as well, so Jaden decides it's time to confront this guy and get the disks back. They run to river, and standing on the bridge is the bully,Tyranno Hassleberry, the same Ra Yellow student that was picking on Crowler and Bonaparte when he arrived at the school. He tries to intimidate Jaden with his strength, but Jaden just shrugs it off and challenges him to a Duel. Hassleberry also has a bunch of other Ra Yellows who support him like an army troop. They and Syrus watch the Duel, and Jaden states that if he wins, Hassleberry has to give all the Duel Disks he stole back. Although Hassleberry fights admirably, he still loses to Jaden's combo of fusing "Elemental Hero Avian" and "Elemental Hero Wildheart" with "Polymerization" to Fusion Summon "Elemental Hero Wild Wingman" and in the end, using "De-Fusion" to separate them back. After the Duel, Hassleberry agrees to give back the Duel Disks. Later that night, Hassleberry moves to the Slifer dorm, having decided to live in the dorm because he feels that he could learn a lot about Dueling from Jaden.

Sometime later, Jaden has just recently finished a Duel with Bastion Misawa in the Duel Arena, using "Elemental Hero Shining Flare Wingman" to destroy "Water Dragon" to get the win. That night, the group gathers inside the Slifer Red dorm to watch Zane Truesdale's next Pro League match. Finding out that Zane's opponent will be Aster Phoenix, Jaden is eager to see what Aster's actual Deck consists of. To everyone's surprise including Zane's, Aster reveals that his Deck has an "Elemental Hero" theme, similar to Jaden's. However, when Aster fuses Elemental Heroes "Avian" and "Burstinatrix", he does not Fusion Summon "Elemental Hero Flame Wingman", but "Elemental Hero Phoenix Enforcer". To his friends' amazement, Jaden was unaware that this Fusion Monster even existed. Aster counters nearly every move Zane makes and even causes him to take damage from "Power Bond". The Duel ultimately ends with Aster the winner, much to the shock of all of Duel Academy.

Aster Phoenix holds a press conference after his defeat of Zane Truesdale in the Pro League. He issues a challenge to Alexis Rhodes, knowing that she plays "Blue-Eyes". He states he'll be coming to Duel Academy tomorrow. Aster meets with his manager, Sartorius. Aster doesn't seem to have any real interest in Dueling Jaden or Alexis, but is doing so once more on Sartorius' advice. Aster arrives that night by skysurfing. Aster thwarts the escape of a man who was robbing Duel Academy's card shop. He appears to be looking for a certain card and when he does not find it, he tosses the man's cards causally on the ground. The Duel begins and Aster Summons "Shining Phoenix Enforcer" while Alexis Summons " Cyber Angel Dakini". Aster drove Alexis into a critical situation by destroying Dakini until getting defeated two turns later after Alexis secured victory with Blue-Eyes White Dragon revived by Call of the Haunted after Aster used Smashing Ground previous turn after Burst Stream of Destruction destroyed Shining Phoenix Enforcer. against Jaden, Aster uses a strange Field Spell Card called "Clock Tower Prison", which appears to turn its hands each turn and do nothing else. Aster plays "D - Time" and Special Summons "Destiny Hero - Doom Lord", a monster that no one in the crowd is familiar with. Its effect removes "Shining Flare Wingman" from play.

Aster unveils his "Destiny Heroes" and Jaden's "Elemental Heroes" can't seem to compete. Despite the "Destiny Heroes" relatively low attack points, their effects push Jaden into a corner, as Aster uses "Misfortune" to deal damage while continuing to place Clock Counters on "Clock Tower Prison". On the turn that the fourth Clock Counter is placed, Jaden would be able to deal enough damage to win. However, "Clock Tower Prison" renders Aster immune to damage when it has enough Counters. Jaden plays "Fusion Gate" and because "Clock Tower Prison" was destroyed, Aster can Summon his ultimate monster - "Destiny Hero - Dreadmaster", whose ATK are equal to the sum of the attack points of the other "Destiny Heroes" on the Field.

Aster explains his past since explaining to Alexis. His father was a card designer for Industrial Illusions, who designed the "Destiny Heroes" himself. One day, Aster came home to find his father dead. The person who did it also took one of the "Destiny Hero" cards, which was known to be the most powerful among them. Aster's vigilante activity is centered around stopping crime to find the person who killed his father, as he would be able to identify them by their possession of the stolen card. His "Dreadmaster" negates the effect of Jaden's "Elemental Hero Thunder Giant" and wins Aster the Duel with its attack. Jaden falls to the ground, his cards flying about, and they turn blank as he falls.

After Jaden Yuki's loss to Aster Phoenix, he claims he can't see his cards and they're blank. However this appears to be how Jaden sees his Deck as everyone else sees nothing wrong with his cards. Everyone, Syrus Truesdale the most, is worried about it. Jaden ultimately decided to leave Duel Academy but days before he left, Alexis helped him to sleep by putting him in bed after carrying him in her own hands.

Later, Jaden Yuki is stranded in a boat when a comet hits. Afterwards, he is transported into Neo Space, a Duel Monsters Spirit World that represents and protects the delicate balance between Light and Darkness. Within this Limbo, Jaden ends up on a planet called Dolphina (which apparently is an uncharted planet neighboring Jupiter), where he is greeted by a dolphin-like creature named "Aquos" (who is later revealed to be the spirit of "Neo-Spacian Aqua Dolphin"), who explains that "the Gentle Darkness" is in danger of being obliterated by a mysterious "Dark Light", and only Jaden Yuki or Alexis Rhodes are able to fight off this entity and save the universe.

Just then, an unusual Duel Robot sent by this "Dark Light" arrives, and Jaden must defeat it in a Duel, using cards salvaged from a satellite. He's shocked when he can see the cards he's holding, and even more shocked when he discovers that the cards were contained within a KaibaCorp satellite, which was carrying cards he'd designed for a global contest held by Seto Kaiba a few years ago, and Jaden figures out that he was the winner.

After winning the Duel, Jaden rediscovers his love for Dueling and regains his resolve, and then sets out to return to Duel Academy and stop this mysterious "Light", however while Jaden finds himself back on Duel Academy, he finds that he is in a forest that is far from where the school building actually is. As his friends deal with the problems around them, Jaden is still trying to find his way back to the Duel Academy building. He complains that he is hungry and wants some curry right now. The rivalry between Syrus Truesdale and Tyranno Hassleberry intensifies, even with Jaden absent. At the suggestion of Alexis Rhodes, the two decide to Duel to decide who Jaden's true "best friend" ("aniki" or "little brother" in the Japanese version). Jaden himself is close to getting back, and is climbing the cliff face on the opposite end of the island. Sometime later, Syrus and Hassleberry are eating in the Slifer Red dorm, and the dinner is Jaden Yuki's favorite - fried shrimp. They eat the shrimp that was intended for Jaden, as he isn't there, and hope that wherever he is, he's not starving. Jaden is still wandering through the forest at the point, and comments that he suddenly tastes fried shrimp, which only makes him hungrier. Wheeler the monkey is also in the forest, pushing a large cart of discarded furniture. He finds Jaden, who has collapsed from hunger. He wakes him up, and Jaden hallucinates that the cart of furniture is really "Ancient Gear Golem". Jaden then has a flashback to his Duel with Dr. Crowler in episode 1.

After that, Jaden sees Wheeler hitting his cart with his fist, and imagines that he's Bastion Misawa, thus having a flashback to his Duel with him in episode 22. After this, he imagines that Wheeler is actually Chazz Princeton and has flashbacks to their Duel in episode episode 4. After this, he proceeds to imagine that the monkey is Zane Truesdale and flashes back to episode 8. After that's over, Wheeler throws a bucket of water at Jaden, and this finally wakes him up fully. He also gives him a bunch of bananas to eat. Jaden thanks him, and heads off to continue his trip back to Duel Academy. However, he ends up going the wrong way, this despite the fact that Duel Academy is visible through the trees in the direction he doesn't take. There is also a sign in that direction pointing towards Duel Academy. Jaden's stupidity actually causes the *inanimate roadsign* to sweat drop and face fault.

A few days later, Jaden finally makes it back to Duel Academy and is lead by a light into a cave. He meets another "Neo-Spacian" there, and then hurries to the Academy. He takes Alexis' place in the Duel, and his rematch with Aster begins. Aster uses his "Destiny Heroes" again, and Jaden unveils Contact Fusion, which the "Neo-Spacians" can use to fuse with "Elemental Hero Neos" without "Polymerization". However, even he was unaware that this results in the Fusion Monster returning to the Fusion Deck at the End Phase, and is reduced to 200 Life Points via direct attacks as a result. Aster is confident he will win since Jaden has no clue on how to use his new cards, but Jaden refuses to give up and notes to himself, he still has a lot to learn about his new Deck as "Elemental Hero Aqua Neos" went back to his Fusion Deck on the End Phase without his knowledge. The two Duelists continually counter the moves of the other, revealing more and more of their new Decks. Aster soon gets out "Destiny Hero - Dogma". Jaden saves himself from an attack that would end the Duel, but now both players are down to a few Life Points. Jaden is still confident he can continue, but Aster doesn't believe so, claiming there is no monster in Jaden's Deck that can help him. Jaden states that may have been the case with his old Deck, but it won't be with his new one. He decides to prove so by showing Aster a brand new hero in his Deck. Jaden then plays "Neo Space", which lets his "Neos" Fusion Monsters remain on the field past the End Phase, and Summons "Elemental Hero Flare Neos". Jaden attacks, but Aster quickly plays "D - Shield" to save himself. Aster then proceeds to switch his "Dogma" into Attack Position and equip it with "Heavy Storm Blade". Aster attacks which surprises everyone, however doing so activates the effect of "Heavy Storm Blade", destroying every Spell and Trap on the field besides "Heavy Storm Blade". This weakens "Flare Neos" and "Dogma" then attacks it. However the attack doesn't go through and soon enough "Heavy Storm Blade" begins to crack (which shocks Aster). Jaden reveals that the set card Aster destroyed with "Heavy Storm Blade" was "Spell Calling" which allowed Jaden to set two face-down cards after it was destroyed. As such the attack backfires on Aster, destroying "Dogma" and winning Jaden the Duel. Due to Jaden's victory, the Slifer Red Dorm remains safe. Aster congratulates Jaden for his victory and Jaden states he won't count their first Duel as official to make things even for both of them, but Aster doesn't mind and leaves.

A few days after Jaden's defeat of Aster Phoenix, two of Alexis’s friends come to see her. They tell her, Jaden, Syrus, and Hassleberry about Chazz and the trouble he is causing at the dorm. When they get there, the entire dorm is painted white to represent the Society of Light. Chazz is standing at the front steps, along with the other Obelisks that he turned into members by beating them in a Duel. Atticus is there and he warns them about how Chazz has become a stronger Duelist since he joined the Society. Chazz explains that the Society is run by Sartorius, who Jaden remembered to be Aster Phoenix’s manager. Chazz says that Sartorius is more than that; Sartorius can help people see the light and that soon the whole world will see. Jaden cluelessly believes that they were exposed to lots of white paint fumes which causes Chazz and his groupees to react in shock and embarrassment. He angrily states that they are the crazy ones. Jaden wanted to challenge Chazz, but Alexis decides to do it because she feels it is right that she defend the Obelisks. Chazz and Alexis get ready to Duel in the arena, along with Jaden and the others and the new members of the Society. the Society got disbanded after Alexis defeated Chazz and restored all Obelisks back to normal much to Jaden's dismay and Atticus' joy.

A few days later, Jaden Yuki is forced into a Duel against Professional Duelist and Society of Light member Howard X Miller, who the English version calls Sartorius' lawyer. X plays a Mill Deck, and his strategy revolves around destroying his opponent's Deck and causing them to lose when they can't draw a card. Jaden ultimately thwarts X's strategy using "Neo-Spacian Glow Moss" and ironically wins the Duel when X himself can't draw a card.

Sartorius, Aster's manager, challenges Hassleberry to a Duel, while promising to set Chazz back to normal should Hassleberry win. The Duel goes quite evenly, with both players being reduced to only a few hundred Life Points in a few turns. Sartorius wins by using "Reversal of Fate" to change the effects of his "Arcana Force" monsters. Despite his loss, Hassleberry is not converted to the disbanded Society of Light, much to Sartorius' shock. Hassleberry explains that in the past, he had excavated some Dinosaur fossils. His leg had been injured, and so the bone had been replaced by the fossilized Dinosaur bone he had uncovered. He claims that this "Dinosaur DNA" is what grants him immunity to the powers of Sartorius. A few days later, its revealed that Sartorius has officially enrolled at Duel Academy as a student.

Duel Academy organizes a field trip sometime after Sartorius' enrollment at the academy. Dr. Crowler and Vice-Chancellor Bonaparte about where they will take the students. Sartorius and the large contingent of Obelisk Blue students enter the room after he brainwashed them. Sartorius wants to pick where they go, and he has most of the student population backing up his choice. Jaden enters the office while accompanied by Hassleberry, Alexis, Bastion and Syrus. Jaden states he also has a place to recommend for the school trip, but the Society members order him to get lost until he is smart enough to join them yet they call Alexis a killer. Jaden states he has equal chance of choosing as he is currently the #2 student in the school while Alexis is the #1 student in the school that defeated him. It's determined that Jaden will Duel a Society member, with the winner being permitted to choose the trip destination (Sartorius also mentions if Jaden loses then he has to promise to join the Society of Light Alexis disbanded). Sartorius chooses Princess Rose to represent the Society of Light. She claims she can see Duel Spirits and that hers are three frog princes, referencing well-known fairy tales. Jaden ultimately wins the Duel, and announces that the field trip will be to Domino City, the site of the Battle City tournament.

Duel Academy's students arrive at Domino City for their field trip. Jaden, Syrus and Hassleberry purchase guidebooks to visit the city's landmarks while Alexis is spending time with her brother Atticus together by defeating many students to disband the Society again. They visit the pier where Yugi Muto Dueled Joey Wheeler, while the latter was controlled by Marik Ishtar's Millennium Rod. They later arrive at Solomon Muto's Kame Game shop. They introduce themselves to Solomon, and upon explaining that they are from Duel Academy, he allows them to come inside, explaining that Yugi is probably off on another journey (in the dub, he says that Yugi "went to the market to get some olives three years ago"). He offers to be their tour guide for the rest of the day, and he takes them to the sites where Yugi Dueled Seeker and Strings. He lags behind as they continue to their next destination, and is kidnapped. Jaden locates Solomon and also meets up with Aster. Seeing the hologram of Hassleberry's "Dark Tyranno" on top of a building, they determine that he and Syrus must be there. Frost then finds Jaden, and wishes to take him to see Sarina, who Aster recognizes as Sartorius' younger sister.

Jaden arrives at the hotel where the Obelisk Blue/Society of Light students are staying, and is kicked out, along with Atticus. The Slifer Red students are forced to stay at an outdoor camp, and are only supplied food when Solomon brings them some. Blaze and T-Bone, two more of Sarina's enforcers, end up in the same camp as Jaden, though they don't realize who he is. They appear to get along just fine, and Jaden shares the food with them. They reveal that they themselves had once tried to enter Duel Academy, but failed the entrance exam. Despite this, they challenge Jaden to a Duel, still not aware who he is. T-Bone and Jaden are about to start their Duel when Sarina absorbs the soul of Blaze into one of her mirror cards while still back in her hideout. She tells T-Bone not to fail her, and forcibly places the "Monarch" cards of Blaze, Frost and Thunder into T-Bone's Deck. T-Bone uses the combined power of the "Monarchs" to Summon "Demiurge Ema", but ultimately loses when Jaden powers up "Elemental Hero Neos" using several Spell Cards. Sarina seals T-Bone's soul in a mirror as well, and reveals she's locked Syrus and Hassleberry in virtual pods. She states she'll be waiting at Kaiba Land for Jaden and Aster Phoenix.

After making their way to Kaiba Land and the Virtual World Facility within, Jaden and Aster are suddenly transported onto a digital plane, where they are reunited with Hassleberry (who has taken the form of a bandanna-wearing dinosaur) and Syrus (in the form of a "Vehicroid" resembling a Volkswagen Beetle), and also discover that the members of the Light Brigade are trapped here. Then, Sarina appears, explaining that she is acting under the orders of her brother, Sartorius, who wishes to discover the identity of the destined Duelist who is to be his final opponent, and Sarina is to Duel either Jaden or Aster to find the answer, but if Sarina's opponent loses, he must join Sartorius and the Society of Light. Jaden accepts the challenge, but convinces Sarina into a Tag-Team Duel. Sarina agrees, and splits herself in two for the face-off against Jaden and Aster. Aster is reluctant to accept, but decides that he must win to learn the truth about the death of his father and the fate of an "Ultimate Destiny Hero" monster.

The Sarinas take an early advantage in the Duel, due to the fact that Aster refuses to cooperate with Jaden, while Jaden's moves are more about luck than strategy. Furthermore, the full moon behind Sarina's "Full Moon Mirror" seems to wane into a new moon with every monster that is destroyed, and once "Full Moon Mirror" gains its tenth Full Moon Counter, Sarina declares that the true test has now begun.

Sarina 1 unveils her strongest monster: By Tributing "Magic Mirror Spirit Asogi" and "Magic Mirror Spirit Nayuta" she Summons "Dark Creator" to the field and multiplies her monster tenfold, thanks to a Field Spell Card called "Infinite Fiend Mirror". After stating that only the Chosen Duelist can destroy her army of "Dark Creator" monsters, she attacks, but Jaden and Aster barely manage to survive her onslaught, because of Aster's "Elemental Recharge". However, as Sarina ends her turn without a direct attack, Jaden comes to realize that "Dark Creator" and the "Dark Creator Tokens" that were recently summoned cannot attack directly. Even though Aster manages to launch a counterattack with "Destiny Hero - Dasher", Sarina's "Dark Creator" has another surprise: it cannot be destroyed by battle. However, Jaden is able to use the effect of "Dasher" in the Graveyard to Special Summon his newest "Neo-Spacian" monster, "Dark Panther", and use it in a combo that brings out "Elemental Hero Dark Neos". "Dark Neos" is able to negate the effects of "Dark Creator", which, after "Dark Creator" is destroyed, undoes the effects of "Infinite Fiend Mirror". After the Duel, Sarina urges Jaden, Alexis and Aster to save her brother from the control of the light.

When Chancellor Sheppard returns and announces the Genex Tournament, Jaden is excited and Syrus thinks that with any luck, Jaden will Duel many professionals. Sheppard specifies that the entire island will be the Duel arena and that each participant will receive one Genex Medallion. Participants must Duel at least once per day and are not permitted to decline the first person who challenges them each day. The winner will obtain all Genex Medallions owned by the loser. The final two medallion-holders will compete in the final match. Sheppard announces that the best veteran Duelists that he met in his travels will be arriving here shortly. He urges all of the students to do their best as he wishes the first Genex Champion to be from Duel Academy. He says there's a very special prize planned for the winner. Jaden leaps up, yelling for them to leave all the winning to him. Syrus comments that past history suggests the prize may be a kiss from Ms. Dorothy. Jaden looks around and Dorothy winks at him.

After Sheppard dismisses them, the students discuss the new development. Syrus says he heard a rumor that the number of medallions one collects will affect your grade, with Aster and Alexis saying they don't care about that. Hassleberry muses that its all about survival. Jaden says he's fired up and asks if anyone wants to Duel now. Aster walks off with Alexis together, saying he'll watch with her to see how things develop for now. Jaden asks if he's trying to be a downer and turns to Hassleberry for a Duel. Hassleberry points out that he if he loses his first medallion, he'll be eliminated right away, then turns to Syrus and says he wants to take out the weakest competitor first anyway. Syrus turns to find himself surrounded by most of the school, who all see him as the weakest Duelist there. Syrus runs away and everyone present except Jaden give chase. Jaden wonders when the rest of the worldwide Duelists are getting here.

Later, Jaden is fishing at the harbor. He yawns, saying he's bored. He wonders if any outside Duelists have arrived yet, but hasn't seen any boats. Syrus and Hassleberry run up to him and Jaden asks why they look so happy. Syrus says he knew running away wasn't going to do any good, so he started by defeating a freshman red student and Hassleberry says he did the same with a second-year yellow. They both proudly show their newly-won Genex Medallions. Syrus asks why Hassleberry has to be such a show-off and the latter responds by asking if he wants to Duel now to settle it. Syrus declines, saying it's only the first challenge he's obligated to take, claiming he's tired. Hassleberry asks how many students Jaden defeated, who responds by saying none, since he was hoping to have his first opponent to be someone from outside Duel Academy. He's been sitting here waiting, but no one has shown up. Syrus wonders if they're really coming. They hear a noise overhead as Prince Ojin's plane comes into view. It lands on top of the warehouse. The three rush to meet it. Hassleberry muses that he must be pretty important to arrive in such a large plane. Syrus sees the insignia on the side of the plane, saying it's the royal crest of the Misgarth Kingdom.

Jaden asks what that is and Syrus asks if Jaden never watches the news. Syrus says it's a small, isolated country, but they've launched SORA, a laser satellite that could burn the world down. He says he did hear that their first prince is a big fan of *Duel Monsters* though. He had announced on TV that he had passed his test to become a professional Duelist. Jaden says that now he know who his first opponent is. Jaden runs towards the plane, where Ojin is about to descend from with three bodyguards and Linda. Ojin tells his bodyguards to relax - the kid appears to be a challenger. Jaden is about to challenge Ojin when Sartorius appears, zapping Jaden with energy by touching his shoulder. Sartorius offers Jaden his apologies and says that Ojin's existence is unrelated to his destiny, as Chazz and Alexis arrives behind him. Sartorius declares that because of that, he will be Ojin's opponent. Jaden asks who decided that and Sartorius responds that the heavens did. Jaden asks him to hold on and Sartorius approaches Ojin, asking for a Duel. Jaden points out that he was the one who found him first and asks to Duel instead. Ojin asks which one of them is connected to the "D" cards. Jaden asks if he means the "Destiny Heroes" and Sartorius says that that would be him. Ojin concludes that Sartorius will be his opponent then. Sartorius says he is delighted and grateful. Jaden asks how Sartorius is linked to the "Destiny Heroes", insisting that that would be Aster. Sartorius wins easily without even using one turn and he obtains the controls to Misgarth's satellite. Jaden wonders what kind of Duels are in store for the rest of the tournament.

The Genex Tournament is in full swing, but Jaden and his friends are in a slump—especially Jaden, since no challengers have approached him for a Duel. Meanwhile, Maximillion Pegasus and Chumley Huffington have arrived at Duel Academy from Industrial Illusions, searching for a stolen copy of the strongest Egyptian God Card, "The Winged Dragon of Ra". It is later discovered that a man named Franz has stolen the card, and then sneaked his way into the Genex Tournament. When Franz finds them, he challenges Pegasus to a Duel, stating that the winner will claim the stolen card. However, it's Jaden who ends up Dueling Franz, and must ultimately find a way to free "Ra" from a confining Field Spell that forces Ra to use its powers against its will. Following Franz's defeat, Pegasus explains to him that everyone can learn a lot from defeats and mistakes, while revealing the spot where his Millennium Eye once rested (before being stolen by Yami Bakura). When Pegasus offers Franz back his position in Industrial Illusions, Franz readily accepts, and returns to Industrial Illusions with Pegasus and Chumley.

Later, Jaden Duels Orlando as part of the Genex Tournament. Orlando is a Kabuki stage actor and Professional Cosplay Duelist. Jaden defeats Orlando and reminds him Dueling is more about fun than it is about performing.

A while later, Jaden is challenged to a Duel by Lucien Grimley from North Academy, who is revealed to be able to use the power of "The Grim Reaper" to win his Duels, in exchange for his soul. During the Duel, Jaden manages to survive Lucien's One Turn Kill strategy, as Lucien's ace card, "Slash Draw", can destroy all of Jaden's cards and damage Jaden for every card he controls. Jaden later discovers that Lucien had lost faith in his Decklong ago and sold his soul to "The Grim Reaper", if the monster spirit helped Lucien win all his Duels. After the two battle through Lucien soon sees that he had always loved his Deck and seeing Jaden's faith in his Deck he throws the Grim Reaper card to fight on his own. He switches his arm to avoid using the power of the Grim Reaper. In the end, Lucien loses the Duel, but not before regaining faith in himself, which results in him breaking his deal with "The Grim Reaper" and deciding to Duel of his own free will.

One night, the good Sartorius appears from a beam of light and gives Jaden a small black case, telling him to protect it and not to return it to him. He then uses his mind control powers on Jaden so that he doesn't give whatever is in the case back to him, which turns out to be one of the keys to SORA.

Meanwhile, Syrus is in the hospital, recovering from his Duel with his brother Zane, when he and Jaden hear an announcement over the P.A. system that Jaden has to take a physics pop quiz. Being the test-hater that he is, Jaden is reluctant to go through with it. However, the "announcement" was merely a recording of Dr. Crowler's voice, played back over the P.A. system by Prince Ojin. And when Jaden enters the classroom, he discovers that he is alone, until Dr. Eisenstein appears on the stage before him. Dr. Eisenstein uses his logical Dueling knowledge to overpower Jaden, balancing the power of his monsters, Spells and Traps to deal significant damage to Jaden. But Jaden, who believes that he'll keep drawing the cards he needs, manages to come out on top with a strong counterattack. Upon defeat, Eisenstein is convinced that faith in chance can help win a Duel. With Hassleberry and Crowler waiting outside watching, Jaden is happy to report that he passed his pop quiz. Then Crowler reminds him that no one is giving classes or tests while the Genex Tournament is still in progress. Jaden realizes that he was tricked into Dueling Eisenstein.

Due to Alexis' victories over Chazz Princeton (freed from Sartorius's influence) and Jaden's victory over Dr. Eisenstein, including Aster Phoenix's victory over The D (killed in the explosion of his yacht), the Light of Destruction steps up its plans to destroy Earth. It fragments once again from Sartorius's body and possesses Prince Ojin, who challenges Jaden to a Duel for control of his key to SORA. While Jaden manages to survive Ojin's One Turn Kill and rally his "Elemental Heroes" to destroy one of Ojin's "Satellite Cannons", the Prince merely shrugs this off as a minor setback and reveals the most powerful monster his Deck can produce—the "Satellite Laser Balsam", a "Satellite" monster with a Piercing effect, and one that would gain 3000 attack points with each of Ojin's passing turns. But even this is not enough to win Ojin the Duel, as Jaden is able to mount a comeback with "Change of Hero - Reflector Ray".

Unfortunately, although Ojin has been defeated, the Light of Destruction (still possessing Sartorius) has not abandoned its goal. Now, it decides to target Aster and claim his key, in an ultimate attempt to claim both, gain full control of SORA, and make the world "see the light".

After defeating The D and escaping with "Destiny Hero - Plasma" and his life, Aster Phoenix heads to the Society of Light's dormitory, intending to save Sartorius from The Light, by challenging The Light, to a Duel Aster wagers his key. Aster makes a dramatic turnaround and attempts to win the Duel with "Plasma", but is ultimately defeated as The Light of Destruction unleashes "Arcana Force EX - The Light Ruler". Jaden, angered by this heartless victory, challenges Sartorius, with the fate of the entire world at stake. Sartorius places Aster's unconscious form on one hand of the goddess statue and his Satellite Key on the other. The statue acts as a set of scales. Unless Jaden Yuki places his own key on the hand, the scale will be imbalanced and Aster will fall into the pit of lava below. Sartorius activates the statue, and the hand holding Aster beings to lower. If Jaden hands over the key, Sartorius will have access to the Satellite and be able to brainwash the whole world (destroy the world in the Japanese version). It's Aster's life against the world's. Jaden chooses to throw his key onto the other hand, and so the scale tips back into balance, saving Aster for now.

Elemental Hero Neos manifests before Jaden and explains that the source of every battle is a confrontation between light and dark. Neos says Jaden is the only one with the power of "gentle power of the Darkness of Justice" to save the world from The Light of Destruction. Jaden challenges Sartorius to a Duel for the satellite keys. Sartoruis states he has no reason to Duel Jaden, since he's already given up his key. Sartorius sends a beam of light at the keys to retrieve them, but the beam is blocked by a multicolored beam from space. Neos is protecting the keys. This forces Sartorius to Duel Jaden for them. Jaden gains an early advantage, reducing Sartorius to 300 Life Points with "Shining Flare Wingman". However, Sartorius activates "Light Barrier" which surrounds the field, suppressing Neos' power. Sartorius retrieves the keys and influences Prince Ojin once more, giving him the keys and telling him to run an activate the satellite. With the keys gone, the hand holding Aster lowers towards the lava. Hassleberry runs in and barely manages to save Aster's life. Ojin rushes off to activate the satellite, and Hassleberry chases after him with Linda, leaving Syrus Truesdale to tend to Aster and support Jaden. Sartorius' "Light Barrier" card negates the effects of all non-Arcana Force monsters, allows Sartorius to choose which effect all such monsters get, and add the ATK of any monsters that either player destroys to their Life Points. During the Duel, Jaden has a vision of his own future, with himself standing in a desert. He's attacked by a shadowy armored figure, but this gives him confidence, as this future implies that the world is not destroyed, and that he wins against Sartorius, despite the fact that this implies a bleak future for him. When Jaden summons "Elemental Hero Neos", it tells him that if he wins the Duel, he may be able to stop the satellite. Jaden manages to destroy "Light Barrier", allowing Neos to leave the area. After attacking directly with "Elemental Hero Glow Neos", its Duel Spirit leaves with that of Hassleberry to destroy the satellite.

When Jaden summons "Elemental Hero Grand Neos" Satorious destroys it with Bottomless Trap Hole leaving the hero wide open for direct attack. Jaden then lost to Satorious after failing to save the universe and then Alexis arrived and dueled Satorious to which she drove him into a corner. Sarina is able to stop the satellite from firing at Blue-Eyes White Night Dragon and Blue-Eyes White Dragon, and this allows them to demolish it completely. Alexis defeats Sartorius by a fatal direct attack after destroying Arcana Force the Light Ruler with "Smashing Ground" and The Light of Destruction leaves the latter's body. Sartorius reveals that The Light of Destruction took his fortune-telling abilities with it when it exited his body. He therefore allows his tarot cards to blow away in the wind. After that, a KaibaCorphelicopter shows up, with Sarina aboard, alive and well. later Jaden dueled Alexis in a rematch to which he lost a second time yet Alexis accidentally cheated by using from her deck Pot of Greed to draw Smashing Ground and an unidentified card to which a day later she apologized for her cheating yet Jaden assured her everything's fine and that he had no chance of defeating her because of his bad luck issues.

#### the Second Ultimate Hero Jesse Andersen:

During the third year, Jaden is pursued by the spirit of his favorite card in childhood, Yubel, which was given to him by his father (in both versions he doesn't remember who Yubel is until it reveals its physical form). With his parents always working and away from home, Jaden turned to Dueling friends to pass the time, but the sadness associated with his inability to play "Yubel" properly led the Duel Monster to hospitalize a young Duelist named Osamu and scare away the rest of his companions with other misfortunes. During this time, he develops a close friendship with North Academy champion Jesse Anderson, as the two found they had much in common.

Duel Academy is transported to an alternate dimension where *Duel Monsters* can take physical form, and Jesse ultimately appears to sacrifice himself to grant the rest of the school passage back to their own world. Depressed at the loss of Jesse, and blaming himself for it Jaden willingly attempts to go back to the alternate dimension, taking a group of his insistent friends with him, though they end up in another, desperate dimension. However, Jaden's guilt for Jesse's situation soon leads to an obsession. He begins to think only of finding and saving Jesse and begins to disregard what his actions may make befall his other friends. Because of this, his friends Tyranno Hassleberry, Chazz and Atticus Rhodes all get captured and sacrificed by Brron, Mad King of Dark World in order to create the "Super Polymerization" card. When Jaden finally wins against Brron, Syrus, Axel Brodie and Jim Crocodile Cook arrive. Witnessing the others being sacrificed because of Jaden's obsession to rescue Jesse causes them to abandon him, leaving him alone.

Under Control by The Supreme King, Atrocities, Getting Saved By The Supreme Queen controlling Alexis:

Afterwards, Jaden feels guilty at himself for allowing the sacrifices to happen. A strange figure called the Supreme King enters, influencing his reincarnation to become evil and saying he will never be able to redeem himself for his actions. With all his friends gone, Jaden unwillingly accepts it along with the incomplete "Super Polymerization" card and at that time, the Supreme King possesses him. While under the Supreme King's control, Jaden commits many atrocities that include unrepentant slaughter of Duelists in order to complete the "Super Polymerization" and the oppression of several villages. However, as the Supreme King performs these actions, Jaden himself is left in doubt about what he needs in order to be complete not only as a Duelist, but as a person. Unfortunately, he turns to the Supreme King for this advice, who only tells him that one can only overcome evil by becoming evil. the Supreme King had two duels by killing Jim first and then killing Axel next at the top of the castle when Zane and Aster instantly defeated and killed dark army soldiers by combos of Cyber End Dragon and Destiny Hero Plasma. after killing Axel by securing the victory with Evil Hero Malicious Fiend by destroying Volcanic Doomfire after fusing the fiend token with Malicious Edge by Super Polymerzation, The Supreme King got confronted by The Supreme Queen to a duel of the fates who possesses Alexis as the second most powerful evil and darkness. the Supreme Queen proved to be the Supreme King's most fearless enemy yet as she didn't flinch when losing life points from 4000 to 1500 by Evil Hero Infernal Wing destroying Snow Fairy and inflicting damage equal to her ATK yet the Supreme Queen outsmarted the Supreme King by saving Blue-Eyes White Dragon equipped to Call of the Haunted by negating Bottomless Trap Hole and paying half of her life points catching the Supreme King offguard and intimidated as after securing her masterplan, Alexis secured the final blow by a direct attack of her Blue-Eyes White Dragon after destroying Infernal Wing by Blue-Eyes White Night Dragon blasting it, defeated the Supreme King and saved Jaden by using Jim's Eye of Orichalcoum in a massive explosion of lightning. after saving Jaden and freeing him, Alexis teleported away and returned home to Duel Academy where she hanged out in a shore alone and the Supreme King's army got also defeated by Alexis' victory. Jaden is then freed from his possession, but is deeply tormented by the atrocities he committed during his possession, and he thus starts refusing to use his Fusion Monsters, as "Polymerization" and other cards that include Fusion Summoning remind him of the things he did while possessed, since the Supreme King mainly used Fusion Monsters.

Zane tries to Duel Jaden to snap him out of his guilty mindset and get him focused on stopping Yubel, but he only continues doubting himself more and feeling worse. Then Jesse reappears, though he is possessed by Yubel. Learning that his friend is being controlled, Jaden puts his problems aside for the time being so that he can save Jesse. However, when Jaden finally Duels Yubel to save Jesse, it is revealed that Yubel actually removed Jesse's soul from his body and placed him inside the "Rainbow Dark Dragon" before taking over. Jaden manages to exorcise Yubel out of Jesse, but in one foul swoop, it snatches the "Super Polymerization" card from Jaden and then forces him into a Duel. Before the final clash, Jaden finds out that Yubel's power was previously augmented by the Light of Destruction while it was still stranded in space. Although he feels guilty because his actions led to Yubel's exposure, the sheer atrocity and shamelessness of its actions prevents Jaden from feeling any sympathy towards the deranged spirit.

However, near the end of the Duel, Jaden is told the truth between his connections with Yubel: Instead of just being a part of him, Jaden is the next Supreme King, the reincarnation of a young prince of an unknown kingdom from long ago, who was once friends with a human Yubel. As the Supreme King contained the enigmatic power of a being called the Supreme King that is needed to defeat the Light of Destruction, he needed a guardian to protect him until he was old enough to control and wisely use his power; Yubel chose herself for the role, and was transformed into the Duel Monster it eventually became, its effect allowing for the perfect defense against anyone who tried to harm Jaden. Despite the great burden and sacrifice, the young Supreme King promised to give his love (friendship in the dub) only to Yubel, which was why Yubel became Jaden's favorite card as a kid, and why Yubel was so obsessed and jealous with him and his friends.

Finally realizing the truth behind all his troubles, Jaden - after bidding adieu to his friends - allowed Yubel to gain a hold of "Super Polymerization," chaining "Spiritual Fusion" to choose their souls as the fusion materials instead of all twelve dimensions as Yubel was expecting, and purging Yubel of the Light of Destruction's influence. Vowing to never stop caring for each other, Yubel and Jaden are bound together for all time. Jaden supposedly left to battle of the light waves of chaos, and fulfil the mission Yubel was given in the past. After Jaden's disappearance and everyone else being returned back to Duel Academy, Syrus, Hassleberry, Atticus, Chazz, and Alexis were talking about Jaden. After the talk, Syrus sees a shooting star and wishes Jaden to be back, which happened as the "star" crashed at Duel Academy, and was revealed that it was Jaden, with the abilities of both the Supreme King and Yubel under his control.

Darkness:

After the events that happened in season 3, Jaden has became very withdrawn and independent (though his cheerful personality was still here). Syrus is now in the Obelisk Blue dorm, and he is the only remaining student at Slifer Red. He now spends most of his time alone, feeling too distanced from his friends after what had happened. He decides to leave Duel Academy, not wishing to put his friends in danger (he had come to believe that things that put his friends in danger happened because of him being around). However, both Sartorius and Kagemaru attempt to convince him otherwise, believing that he is needed on the island to prevent a growing danger in the near future. This seems to be well-advised, as before their meeting, Jaden already confronts a mysterious Obelisk Blue student by name of Yusuke Fujiwara, who can hypnotize people and set fires with his eyes, as well as the mysterious entity Trueman, who seems to want both Jaden and Fujiwara dead. Both of these entities noticed Jaden showing Yubel's power and commented that he is not a regular human.

Jaden failed to regain his love for Dueling while teaming with Alexis in a Tag Duel. While Dueling alongside her, he also argued with her in intense tension which caused him to quit the Tournament and force Alexis and Aster to become tag partners after their romantic duel and win the Tournament instantly instead.

Eventually, Jaden learns that the person that everyone thought was Fujiwara was actually the spirit of one of his cards, Honest, and that Fujiwara doesn't even appear to be on earth. Although Jaden doesn't know what Trueman's intentions are, he has found that the enigmatic dark entity pulls people into the world of Darkness. He realizes this too late, having been distracted by Trueman's actions in Domino City, thus giving the real Nightshroud, using Yusuke Fujiwara's body as a vessel, to attack the students at Duel Academy, only arriving in time to see Nightshroud possessed Fujiwara defeat the last student, Atticus Rhodes. Along the way, Jaden meets Jesse in Domino City, but mistakes him for Trueman after Sartorius infected his "Polymerization" card. After a Duel they fail to finish, Jaden realizes it is Jesse and not Trueman he's Dueling and the two of them return to Duel Academy together. Both are then challenged to a triple Duel with Nightshroud, with only Jaden remaining the winner after he purges Nightshroud from Fujiwara. However, Alexis Duels the bodiless Nightshroud in a final Duel with the world at stake. The Duel was intense straight from the start; with Alexis defending herself and her life points by summoning in defense position 15 Dragons. Alexis finally defeats Nightshroud by summoning "Blue-Eyes Shining Dragon" to defeat Nightshroud's "Darkness Neosphere."

after everything back to normal, Jaden challenged Alexis to a final graduation duel to determine who's the top duelist of the school to which she relunctaly agreed. Jaden made dumbest plays however by wasting all his cards in the start to which Alexis defeated him instantly with OTK by unleashing the full potential of her Blue-Eyes deck. before her instant win, Alexis revealed her origins to Jaden she's the daughter of Seto Kaiba and she has purpose of trying to become the new legend and Queen of Games to succeed Yugi Muto because she's the most powerful duelist in the world shocking Jaden and everyone else. after he instantly lost a third straight time, Jaden regained back his love for dueling thanks to a conversation with Alexis and they became friends again by hand shaking with respect as they also both wished each other they'll meet again someday. After the graduation ceremony and dueling Alexis, later at midnight, Jaden decides to leave Duel Academy quietly two hours after the Graduation Party ended as he refused to come by his emotional mental state of depression; however, he is brought to the room that contains Yugi's Deck by Winged Kuriboh. Yugi appears there, and after the Winged Kuriboh card glows with a bright light, Jaden finds himself in Domino City in the past, bumping into a younger Yugi who still holds the Millennium Puzzle and defeated Alexis before she and Jesse began their journey together in a cruise all the way from Japan to Chicago overseas. Jaden challenges his hero to a Duel, and as he shuffles the Deck he senses the presence of the Egyptian Gods in Yugi's Deck. The Duel then begins, with Yugi eventually Summoning "Dark Magician" and Jaden Summoning "Elemental Hero Neos", their ace monsters, which battle it out. After a long battle, Yami Yugi finally takes over Yugi's body and welcomes Jaden, and Summons "Slifer the Sky Dragon". Jaden's face lights up, and he finally realizes Dueling really is fun. He then sends "Elemental Hero Neos" to attack "Slifer The Sky Dragon" and the Duel comes to an abrupt end with Jaden, Yami and Yugi all smiling but Jaden lost the duel as he had no chance of winning but two hours before he dueled, Alexis almost defeated Yugi and delayed her Blue-Eyes White Night Dragon's finishing blow out of respect and inspiration to learn to accept a fair and square defeat because of how undefeated she was in her four years and that she should have fun if there's an enjoyable duel that lifts her spirit up. the duel resulting in Yugi's second victory then pans to Jaden in a desert. Jaden then turns around and looks at the sky, and thanks Yugi for reminding him that he has a long way to go, and Dueling is fun, and shouts his very last "Gotcha!" towards the sun. His bag rustles, and he opens it to find Pharaoh and Banner inside. Inside Pharaoh's collar he finds a letter from his friends each with their own message for him except Alexis who didn't send a message duo to being on a journey together with Aster to Chicago. After reading it, Jaden, Banner, Pharaoh, and presumably Yubel decide to travel together, and thus Jaden runs off towards the sunset, off to start a new adventure.

Bonds Beyond Time:

Jaden is known to have traveled to Venice in *Yu-Gi-Oh! 3D Bonds Beyond Time* before being attacked by Paradox. He is relentlessly attacked further by "Cyber End Dragon." "Rainbow Dragon" and "Stardust Dragon" and despite the extra protection offered from Summoning "Elemental Hero Neos," he was nearly overwhelmed by all their attacks. He only survives due to the intervention of Yusei Fudo and the Crimson Dragon, the latter of which takes the final blows for him. He then explains to Yusei that he heard from Jesse and Zane about getting their cards stolen from Paradox and came down to Venice to stop him. They then use the Crimson Dragon to travel back to the days of Yugi Muto, only to find they were too late to stop Paradox from killing Pegasus. They return thirty minutes earlier after recruiting Yugi to their cause, with Yubel scaring off the patrons just before Paradox would appear to Duel them. Though only having one turn in the Duel, Jaden shows his mastery of fusion as he Summons a new Fusion Monster, "Elemental Hero Neos Knight," by fusing his "Neos" with Yusei's "Junk Gardna" and destroying Paradox's "Malefic Cyber End Dragon" and "Malefic Rainbow Dragon". He shows his characteristic excitement when seeing Yusei's Duel Runner during their first meeting and when Yusei Synchro Summons "Junk Gardna" during his first turn. He and Yami Yugi also manage to convince Yusei not to forfeit after he loses faith in their victory after the Summoning of "Malefic Truth Dragon". He and Yami Yugi are able to give "Stardust Dragon" the power to defeat "Malefic Truth Dragon" and defeat Paradox. Following their victory, all the damage Paradox caused to the timeline is repaired and the three return to their respective timelines with Yusei promising to protect the future and meet him and Yugi again.

Reuniting with Alexis and getting Rejected:

later Alexis strolled and suddenly she found Jaden strolling as well. she reunited with him emotionally after many years but got extremely worried and shocked at him duo to his dissapearance. Alexis revealed to Jaden all what happened since he left and that her brother Atticus has a Girlfriend named Sarrah while Zane dominates at the Pro League with Chancellor Sheppard after forming a special tag team of their own named Cyber Style. Jaden and Alexis then hanged out more and talked at a cafe where they both drank water. after that they both left together to Alexis' home where Jaden reunited with Atticus. however Alexis keeps her relationship and marriage with Aster as secret so no one will know how they are meant for each other. eventually Alexis and Jaden conversed privately about their pasts and how they first got interested in each other and developed feelings. Jaden confessed to Alexis his love but she rejected him by revealing her and Aster's relationship and marriage and daughter Bella.

Jaden became heartbroken by this but let go of his emotions and became happy for Alexis. he then showed her a box with Red Ring and he told her that he wanted to propose to her marriage since learning what the word fiance means until he realized that she ended up with his best friend. Alexis explained to Jaden that she can't marry him cause she loves Aster and she and him are meant for each other and already have a daughter. Jaden then exited the house after handshake with Alexis and got bumped into Aster who returned from the Pro League. the reunion was exciting but Jaden explained to Aster that Alexis revealed to him the relationship and that he failed to propose to her marriage after learning what fiance means. Aster cheered Jaden up by telling him that he'll find the right girl someday to which he accepted but lets go of his love life until that day. Jaden and Aster then parted ways, before Jaden and Jesse formed a tag team known as I Can See Spirits based on their friendship and bond and became professional duelists at the Pro League.

Resurrecting Pharaoh Atem:

    the next day Alexis and her Friends including her husband Aster met Legendary Duelists Yugi Joey Pegasus and Kaiba at a friendly party. Still Desperate to see Pharaoh Again outside of soul Yugi wants him to come back by his side which Kaiba responded it's impossible. however Jaden thought with a brilliant strategy to bring Pharaoh back from the dead to become alive and a real living thing like Yugi by opening the Millenium Puzzle at the Temple again and convince him to come back. Alexis and her friends including the Legendary Duelists traveled to Egypt but it took them a lot of time to arrive. they found the Temple where Pharaoh went to the afterlife. to make sure the collapsed Temple will be fully open Kaiba called during the flight workers of his company to pick all rubbles and rocks from the Temple so it can be open.

after hour of picking up rubbles and rocks, Alexis and her friends officialy entered the Temple where the Ceremonial Duel occurred. however the Temple is extremely dark since the collapse of many years ago and Alexis and her friends activated lights in their cellphones to see in the dark. they found the door to the afterlife and they all discussed about how can they bring Pharaoh back from the dead. Jaden suggested that since the Millenium Items are gone they should dig up the underground to find the sealed items and place them in their places on the door and open it so Pharaoh could return to life.

Kaiba then gave everyone dig equipments and they all began digging the underground of the collapsed temple. after 50 minutes of digging they finally obtained all 7 Millenium Items. Yugi then placed all 7 Items in their places on the Door and suddenly the Door began to open where Pharaoh's voice and presence began to hear. Yugi begged Pharaoh to come back cause the Ceremonial Duel was a mistake for his entire purpose. Pharaoh thought about agreeing or disagreeing but realized that it doesn't matter if he's still alive cause his Egyptian Family will always be in his heart. Pharaoh accepted the offer and the King came back from the afterlife and got ressurrected for eternity by true fate. Yugi and Pharaoh reunited emotionally and Jaden met Pharaoh for the first time.

Celebrating Atem's Return:

Jaden's Brilliant Idea proved to be a huge success and Pharaoh's return proved to be extremely exciting for the entire world. Alexis and her friends then after harsh flight from Egypt back to United States North America relaxed for 5 hours. after relaxation Alexis and her friends began celebrating in a restaruant for Pharaoh and the celebration was exciting and wild. Jaden then decided to De-Fuse him and Yubel cause he wants her and him to forever be friends even if they're seperated from each other again and the Supreme King and Guardian will be seperate too but will always be together no matter what and Jaden told Yubel that he dreams to be in the Pro League and she should become a professional too to compete against Zane. Yubel accepted this cause of her happiness and she and Jaden defused and everyone's expressions shocked. Jaden and Yubel then hugged and announced that they dream to become pro duelists at the Pro League cause they choose their own paths. during the party everybody raised toasts.

after historic party Alexis and her friends returned to their homes to sleep. the next day Jaden and Yubel became pro duelists at the Pro League but Jaden began forming a tag team with Jesse and named it I Can See Spirits! Yubel formed with Marcel D.D. Invitation but realized she and him need new cards. she and Marcel got offered for a job at the underground of Duel Academy to discover hidden treasures for selling markets and they both accepted. Yubel and Marcel then began working at the underground of Duel Academy and suddenly during work the sealed Sacred Beasts began calling to them. suddenly the three beats exited their seals and became cards once more but this time they're not harming anything and instead became friendly. two Sacred Beasts Raviel and Uria chose Marcel and Hamon chose Yubel. Yubel and Marcel then began wielding their power but with friendship and trust. Yubel then showed Jaden her Sacred Beast card causing him to get pissed but she calmed him down that they're not harmful anymore. days later at midnight Alexis met Thor who crashed from the sky and space out of nowhere.

    Jaden and Jesse are currently dating since starting over their gay romantic relationship at May 2029.

Powers and Abilities:

Supreme King: Jade has an ability called the The Gentle Darkness inside her soul, which gives her the power to see and hear Duel Monster spirits and control them. This is the main power that is used by the Supreme King. In the fourth season, Jade can use it to materialize Duel Monsters and their powers. After the events in the Dimension World arc, Jade now has the power of Yubel and the Supreme King inside her. When she materializes her Duel Monsters, she can make them even stronger. Yubel's power allows her to sense people's thoughts and emotions, see visions of the future, and protects her from other supernatural powers, like hypnosis and Nightshroud's influence. Yubel's powers also let her quickly figure out that Honest was masquerading as Fujiwara. Jade's eyes take the same color as Yubel's or the Supreme King when manifesting either of their abilities. when she was fused with Yubel years ago, Nightshroud described Jade as not a human being, but a strange blend between a human and a Duel Monster spirit and refered to her as a "foreign object". Jade managed to unlock more abilities of her powers however years later the more she matured and grown up. she can use the Supreme King to instantly recover herself from any injury or nearby death situations, manipulate the weather to create Harsh Sunlight and Heat for Sunny Days and Hot Weather, Boost Speed to it's full limit by Blue Fire Boost to help her win a race in a case she loses and also gain the ability to have enhanced reflexes and fly into the skies what Alexis, Jesse and Aster have with their past lives' powers of the Supreme Queen, Rainbow King and Destiny King. however Alexis is much stronger than Jade in terms of powers as she can manipulate the weather for Storms and Thunder while Jesse can manipulate the weather for Rainbows and Rainbow the World with all colors and Aster can manipulate the weather for Rainfall to help lakes and oceans get much more water which also helps the world ecologically.
