{{Chapter summaryAt the fifth [[Duel Zodiac]], [[Admire Derby]], with the [[Level|Level 8]] [[Star Ticket]], faces [[Adolf Mueller]], who has the [[Level|The Level 3]] Ticket. Derby laughs, commenting that he bets he leaves Mueller in the dust. Mueller calmly replies that he'll show Derby that speed isn't everything in a [[Turbo Duel]]. At the tenth Duel Zodiac, [[Andre (manga)|Andre]] begins his second stage of match against [[Ramon Kagura]], who vows revenge for losing to him at the eleventh Duel Zodiac, having not won a single Star Ticket yet. Andre, with the [[D1 Grand PrixLevel|D1GPLevel 11]] goes Ticket, apologizes, but he's taking this Star Ticket too. The Double Unicorns are going to the final stage together. The scores stand as shown onthe title caption.  At the second Duel Zodiac, [[Yusei Fudo (manga)|Yusei Fudo]], faces off against [[Jean (manga)|Jean]] with "[[Leo Junk Defender (manga)|LeoJunk Defender]] " and "[[Luna Junk Dragonlet (manga)|Junk Dragonlet]]" on his field against Jean's 2800 [[ATK]] "[[Lightning Tricorn (manga)|LunaLightning Tricorn]]." Yusei, his [[Life Points]] keep advancing at 700, draws, vowing to get the finals[[Level 2]] Star Ticket no matter what, drawing a card. Jean laughs, his own Life Points at 2000, commenting that Yusei's got spunk, but their strategy won't allow him to give this Star Ticket to Yusei. He thinks that Andre won't be happy if he doesn't have enough Star Tickets when they meet back up. Yusei Summons his [[Tuner monster]], "[[Screwturn, the Apprentice Warrior]]" and tunes the Level 2 "Screwturn" with the Level 3 "Junk Defender" to [[Tiger EyesSynchro Summon]] his "[[Catapult Warrior (manga)|Catapult Warrior]]." Then he activates its effect, releasing "Junk Dragonlet" to inflict damage equal to its 2100 ATK to Jean, using "[[attack names|Dive Catapult]]" to fire "Junk Dragonlet" at Jean's [[Duel Runner]]and reduce his Life Points to zero. This nets Yusei the Level 2 Star Ticket. Jean offers him his, but Yusei explains that he only needs the one from this Duel Zodiac, Jean won his fair and square. Jean accepts that. Yusei thinks to himself that he has six Star Tickets now; if he gets the [[Commander Koda#Manga BiographyLevel|Commander KodaLevel 6]] Star Ticket, he'll have twelve, enough to get him through the Duel Gate. Telling Jean he's in a hurry, he hopes they'll Duel again, and drives off. Smiling Jean thinks that Yusei is strong, but his kindness may come back to bite him someday. Meanwhile, at the fourth Duel Zodiac, Tiger Eyes shakes in horror - the Star Ticket is gone from this Duel Zodiac as well, and he screams in frustration.  At the ruins of the Virtual Solid Sense Laboratory, [[Kalin Kessler (manga)|Kalin Kessler]] retire from the tournamentrests against a wall, smiling to himself, as he is listed as retired. While  Near the fierce battle happenstwelfth Duel Zodiac, [[Crow Hogan (manga)|Crow]] passes by dodges steam geysers on [[Blackbird|his Duel Runner]], wondering if they really put a Duel Zodiac here. Getting that special Star Ticket is the fastest way to make up for his loss to Yusei, as he remembers Lazar stating that the "?" Star Ticket has as many Levels as the holder desires. Grinning, Crow thinks that all he has to do is say "12" to win, and he'll get it before the other guys catch on. Then he arrives, and sees the reason why [[Lazar (manga)|Lazar]] said ''"if"'' one can get to it - the Duel DragonZodiac is on the other side of a thin stone bridge. If he falls off, he's history. But a little obstacle like that isn't enough to scare the "Crowster" and he speeds across the bridge as it crumbles behind him. He sheepishly realizes that he's broken the road, and wonders how he'll get back. Suddenly, [[Kodou Kinomiya (manga)|Kodou]] collapses in front of him, weakly stating that he can't win against [[Blank cardDuel Dragon|him]], before falling unconscious, listed as "retired." As Crow asks Kodou if he's okay and what happened, a voice comments that he's the next Duelist. Crow turns to see a Duel Dragon card, Shadow Miasma pouring from it. The card creates a dark auraMiasma enlarges, which takes his form - creating a taking [[Dark Crow Hogan|Dark the form of Crow]]and his Duel Runner. The Dark Crow tells Crow now has to face himself Duel him. Crow realizes that it's both a [[Mirror Match]] and his Duel Dragon ceremony. He'll get two birds with one stone, that Duel Dragon card, and the Star Ticket. They declare a Duel (Diak).  At the seventh Duel Zodiac, [[Tetsu Trudge (manga)|Trudge]], with "[[Montage Dragon (manga)|Montage Dragon]]" on his field and 1900 Life Points remaining, declares that there's no way he's losing twice in the second stage. [[Leo (manga)|Leo]] grins, his Life Points at 3300. Behind him, [[Luna (manga)|Luna]] tells him to activate "[[Ancient Pixie Dragon (manga)|Ancient Pixie Dragon]]'s" effect, and Leo activates the [[Field Spell Card]] "[[Ancient Forest (manga)|Ancient Forest]]." Luna explains that when a Field Spell is in play, "Ancient Pixie Dragon" can destroy one card on the field. Trudge realizes in horror that they're going to destroy his monster, and "Ancient Pixie Dragon" destroys "Montage Dragon" with its "Spirit Burial" effect. Leo tells his "[[Power Tool Mecha Dragon (manga)|Power Tool Mecha Dragon]]" to go in for the kill with a direct attack, destroying Trudge's DuelRunner with "Full Metal Demolition" and reducing his Life Points to zero. Luna comments that he was far too weak, what a boring man, as Leo holds up the [[Level|Level 7]] in order Star Ticket proudly, while Trudge groans from the ground, forced out of the tournament.  Later, Luna is reading from her storybook as Leo calls their win easy, and wondering which Duel Zodiac they'll hit next. Luna just reads from her book "after being saved by the prince, the maiden went with him to see the king. They were both rewarded, and lived happily ever after." Luna smiles, repeating "happy?" before remembering that the prince saved the maiden, of course she was happy. She states that she has to obtain hurry and defeat the black magician, she's the only one who can. Leo sadly says his own sister's name. [[Rex Goodwin (manga)|Goodwin]] appears as a hologram, telling Luna that that's right. He smiles, thinking that they'll turn the page of her dream story, and tells her that the black magician now has the power to turn into a [[Stardust Spark Dragon|dragon]]. Only she can slay him. Luna asks if all she has to do is defeat Yusei Fudo and Goodwin confirms it. Now that he has a Duel Dragon!}}, Yusei is far more powerful. He's currently on his way to the sixth Duel Zodiac. Luna tells him "As you wish my king." Leo thinks that Luna's been acting weird ever since they Dueled Yusei, and he asks Goodwin if Luna will turn back to normal when they defeat Yusei. Goodwin asks if he's ever lied to them, and Leo replies that he hasn't. They've got a score to settle with Yusei, they've got to get their revenge. Goodwin smiles, commenting that that's the spirit, and he looks forward to watching them work. He disappears, and Leo thinks that he'll protect Luna by beating Yusei, while Luna, Miasma rolling off her, comments that Shadow power is dangerous.

MeanwhileIn his office, as Luna reads a fairy-tale book, "[[The Black Magician of Goodwin comments on the Forest]]", [[Rex Goodwin (manga)|Goodwin]] appears to her and Leo as a hologrambeautiful sibling love. Leo has noted Luna was acting weirdIt's better than he anticipated. Rex then tells them that they must defeat Their thoughts for one another strengthen the "black magician" from the fairy-taleDuel Dragon's power, and Luna realizes he is Yusei. Leo asks if that wonders what will bring Luna back to normal, and Goodwin confirms ithappen when they meet the warrior who battles for [[Sect Ijuin|his friend]]. However, GoodwinHe doesn's plans are only to test t know how powerful Yusei's Duel Dragon's strengthis, and but the twins will draw it out for thathim, he needed no matter what happens to use another them in the process.
