After Crow and Yusei escape from Security....Yusei and Crow hide in safety but Yusei wanting to leave to avoid problems is challenged by Crow to a duel!

## Featured Duel: Yusei Fudo vs. Crow Hogan (ARC-V)

**Turn 1: Crow**

Crow draws. Since Crow control no cards, he Special Summons "Blackwing - Gust the Backblast" (900/1400) from his hand in Attack Position, via its own effect. As he now controls a "Blackwing" monster, he Special Summons "Blackwing - Oroshi the Squall" (400/600) from his hand in Attack Position via its own effect. Crow Special Summons it from his hand in Attack Position via its own effect. Crow tunes the Level 2 "Gust" with the Level 1 Tuner monster "Oroshi" to Synchro Summon "Assault Blackwing - Kuniyoshi the Fogbow" (1000/1000) in Attack Position. Crow activates the effect of "Kuniyoshi", letting him send a "Blackwing" monster from his hand to the Graveyard to inflict 300 damage to Gong. Crow sends "Jetstream the Blue Sky" (Yusei: 4000 → 3700 LP). Crow Normal Summons "Blackwing - Blizzard the Far North" (1300/1000). As "Blizzard" was Normal Summoned, Crow activates its effect, which lets him Special Summon a Level 4 or lower "Blackwing" monster from his Graveyard in Defense Position. He Special Summons "Jetstream" (100/800). Crow tunes the Level 1 "Jetstream" with the Level 2 "Blizzard" to Synchro Summon the Level 3 "Assault Blackwing - Kunisada the Fogbow" (1000/1000) in Attack Position. Crow activates the effect of "Kunisada", letting him return a Level 3 or lower "Blackwing" monster from the Graveyard to his hand to increase the ATK of all "Blackwing" Synchro Monsters he controls by the value of its ATK until the end of Gong’s next turn, but he cannot conduct his Battle Phase the turn that he activates this effect. He adds "Blizzard the Far North" ("Kuniyoshi": 1000 → 2300, "Kunisada": 1000 → 2300). He then equips "Kunisada" with "Charging Blade", increasing its ATK by 800 ("Kunisada": 2300 → 3100). Crow activates the effect of "Charging Blade", which lets him inflict damage to his opponent once per turn equal to the number of Synchro Materials used in the Summoning of the equipped Synchro Monster times 400 (Yusei: 3700 → 2900 LP).

**Turn 2: Yusei**

Yusei draws. Yusei Normal Summons "Road Synchron" (1600/800) in Attack Position. Yusei then activates "One for One" to send "Quillbolt Hedgehog" from his hand to the Graveyard and Special Summon "Tuningware" (100/300) from his hand in Attack Position. Yusei then activates the first effect of "Quillbolt Hedgehog" to revive itself (800/800) in Attack Position as a Tuner monster is present on Yusei's side of the field. Yusei then tunes "Quillbolt Hedgehog" and "Tuningware" (who is treated as a Level 2 monster through its first effect) with "Road Synchron" in order to Synchro Summon "Road Fighter" (3000/1500) in Attack Position. Since "Quillbolt Hedgehog" has left the field, it is removed from play due to its second effect. Since "Tuningware" was sent to the Graveyard for a Synchro Summon, its effect allows Yusei to draw a card. He then activates the effect of "Road Fighter" to Special Summon "Speed Warrior" (900/400) in Attack Position. Yusei then activates "Domino Effect". Now when a monster Crow controls is destroyed and sent to the Graveyard, Yusei can send any number of cards he controls to the Graveyard to destroy a number of monsters Crow controls equal to the number of cards sent. "Road Fighter" attacks and destroys "Kuniyoshi" (Crow: 4000 → 3300 LP). Yusei then activates the effect of "Domino Effect" to send "Speed Warrior" to the Graveyard and destroy "Kunisada". Yusei then Sets two cards.

**Turn 3: Crow**

Crow draws. Crow Normal Summons "Blizzard the Far North" (1300/0). He activates its effect to Special Summon "Gust" from his Graveyard (900/1400) in Attack Position. He Tributes "Blizzard" to Tribute Summon "Assault Blackwing - Kunai the Drizzle" (2100/600) in Attack Position. Since "Kunai" was Tribute Summoned by Tributing a "Blackwing" monster, it is treated as a Tuner monster. Crow tunes the Level 2 "Gust" with the Level 5 Tuner monster "Kunai" to Synchro Summon the Level 7 "Assault Blackwing - Raikiri the Rain Shower" (2600/2000) in Attack Position. Crow activates the effect of "Raikiri" to destroy cards Gong controls, up to the number of "Blackwing" monsters Crow controls. He destroys "Road Fighter". "Raikiri" attacks directly, but Yusei activates his face-down "Defense Draw" to reduce the Battle Damage he takes to 0 and draw one card.

**Turn 4: Yusei**

Yusei draws "Tuning" and subsequently activates it, adding "Junk Synchron" from his Deck to his hand and sending the top three cards of his Deck ("Speed Warrior", "Healing Wave Generator" and "Equip Shot") to the Graveyard due to "Junk Synchron" being Level 3. Yusei Normal Summons "Junk Synchron" (1300/500) in Attack Position. Yusei then activates the effect of "Junk Synchron" to Special Summon "Speed Warrior" (900/400) from his Graveyard in Defense Position. Yusei then activates his face-down "Graceful Revival" to Special Summon "Tuningware" (100/300) from his Graveyard in Attack Position. Yusei tunes "Tuningware" (who is treated as a Level 2 monster through its first effect) "Junk Synchron" to Synchro Summon "Junk Warrior" (2300/1300) in Attack Position. Due to the effect of "Junk Warrior", it gains ATK equal to the ATK of all Level 2 or below monsters Yusei controls ("Junk Warrior": 2300 → 3200 ATK). Since "Tuningware" was sent to the Graveyard for a Synchro Summon, its effect allows Yusei to draw a card. "Junk Warrior" attacks and destroys "Raikiri" (Crow: 3300 → 2700 LP). Crow then Sets a card.

**Turn 5: Crow**

Crow draws. As he controls no monsters, Crow Special Summons "Blackwing - Gofu the Vague Shadow" (0/0) from his hand in Attack Position via its own effect. As it was Special Summoned, its effect activates, letting Crow Special Summon two "Vague Shadow Token" (0/0 each) in Attack Position. Crow tunes the two Level 1 "Vague Shadow Token" with the Level 5 Tuner monster "Gofu" to Phantom Synchro "Assault Blackwing - Raikiri the Rain Shower" (2600/2000) from his Graveyard in Attack Position. Crow activates the effect of "Raikiri", letting him destroy a number of his opponent's cards per turn equal to the number of "Blackwing" monsters he controls. He destroys "Speed Warrior" ("Junk Warrior": 3200 → 2300/1300). "Raikiri" attacks "Junk Warrior", but Yusei activates his face-down "Card Defense" to negate the attack and draw one card by discarding "Shield Warrior".

**Turn 6: Yusei**

Yusei draws "Drill Synchron" and subsequently Normal Summons it (800/300) in Attack Position. Yusei then tunes "Junk Warrior" with "Drill Synchron" in order to Synchro Summon "Stardust Dragon" (2500/2000) in Attack Position. Yusei then activates the final effect of "Skill Successor" to remove it from play from his Graveyard and increase the ATK of "Stardust Dragon" by 800 ("Stardust Dragon": 2500 → 3300/2000). "Stardust Dragon" attacks and destroys "Raikiri" (Crow: 2700 → 2000 LP). Yusei then Sets two cards.

**Turn 7: Crow**

Crow draws. Crow Normal Summons "Blackwing - Tornado the Reverse Wind" (1000/1200). As his opponent controls a Special Summoned monster, Crow activates the effect of "Tornado", letting him Special Summon a Level 1 Tuner monster from his Graveyard. He Special Summons "Oroshi" (400/600) in Attack Position. Crow tunes the Level 4 "Tornado" with the Level 1 Tuner monster "Oroshi" to Synchro Summon "Assault Blackwing - Sohaya the Rain Storm" (1500/2000) in Attack Position. As it was Synchro Summoned, the effect of "Sohaya" activates, letting Crow Special Summon an "Assault Blackwing" monster from his Graveyard. He Special Summons "Raikiri" (2600/2000). As "Raikiri" was Synchro Summoned using a "Blackwing" monster, its effect treats it as a Tuner monster. Crow tunes the Level 5 "Sohaya" with the Level 7 Tuner monster "Raikiri" to Synchro Summon "Assault Blackwing - Onimaru the Divine Thunder" (3000/2000) in Attack Position. "Onimaru" attacks "Stardust Dragon", with the effect of "Onimaru" activating as it is declaring an attack, increasing its ATK by the number of times Crow Synchro Summoned this turn times 1000 ("Onimaru" 3000 → 5000).

At this moment, officers from Sector Security arrive and arrest everyone else present, except for the kids, so the Duel ends with no result.
