==Summary==
[[File:KaitoSlapsYuma.png|thumb|left|[[Kite Tenjo|Kite]] snaps [[Yuma Tsukumo|Yuma]] out of his anger by slapping him.]]After his Duel with [[Yuma Tsukumo|Yuma]], [[Vector]] has kidnapped [[Vector#As Ray Shadows|Ray Shadows]] and taken him to the [[Barian World]]. Yuma attempts to save him, only for the portal to close before he can reach it. He screams Ray's name several times in anger (in the dub, Yuma demands to know where Vector has taken Ray). [[Kite Tenjo|Kite]] flies in with [[Orbital 7]]'s jetpack function and lands behind Yuma. [[Tori Meadows|Tori]] asks what Kite is doing here. He asks Yuma what happened. Yuma tells Kite that Ray was taken by Vector, while [[Reginald Kastle|Shark]] arrives on the scene. Yuma holds on to Kite's collar and begs him to help him find Ray. Kite slaps snaps Yuma to the ground out of his anger by slapping him and tells him to calm down. Yuma says Kite's name (in the dub, Yuma apologizes to Kite). Meanwhile, in the [[Emperor's Key]], [[Astral]] reflects that Vector left "[[Number 66: Master Key Beetle (anime)|Master Key Beetle]]" with him and Yuma for a reason. The card glows with a bright light, and transforms into a key reminiscent of the sealed form of "Master Key Beetle". The key flies off and embeds itself into the cockpit of the [[Different Dimension Airship]]. Astral detects a light and looks up to find a map.
[[File:Yumaoffer95.png|thumb|Yuma massaging [[Kari Tsukumo|Kari]]'s shoulders.]]At Heartland Tower Yuma's house, Yuma devours his dinner at a fast pace. He comments that tonight's dinner is really delicious. [[Lillybot]] comes in and offers Yuma seconds, while referring to him as "idiot". [[Haru Tsukumo|Haru]] asks what gives and comments that Yuma is acting differently (an aerial view in the dub, Haru says that she makes this kind of Heartland before Heartland Tower itself is cut from dinner once a week). Yuma thanks her for everything (in the dub, Yuma agrees and says that it always tastes great), and asks [[Hart TenjoKari Tsukumo|HartKari]] watches out if she's busy for work (in the window before dub, he hears Kite coming asks her how she's doing). Surprised, Kari asks her brother what got into him (inthe dub, Kari asks Yuma since when did he care about her). Yuma gets up and starts massaging his sister's shoulders, much to her chagrin. He asks offers Haru a massage as well (in the dub, Yuma extends this offer to Lillybot). After dinner, Yuma looks over the "[[V (archetype)|V]]" cards that Ray gave to him if . He mentally makes a promise to Ray that he'll leave use them to fight save him. Astral appears out of the Barianskey. Kite confirms itFrantically, Yuma tries to hide the cards and says his name. Hart apologizes to Kite for doing itAstral tells him that the fight tomorrow will be fierce. Kite Yuma says that it isn't his fault, placing his hand on Hart's shoulder, he already knows and adds reiterates that he threw himself into the battle. He encourages Hart not to worry 'll save Ray and that he woncan't afford to lose, while also promising to return home. Hart nods and agrees with his brother.
Back at the airship, Yuma's friends reports that they are watching the spectacle from the airshipsailing smoothly. Tori mutters Bronk is in awe that Ray can't be dead. From about the Different Dimension tunnel (in the screendub, Yuma falls to his knees (Bronk comments that this is cut from the dubmost awesome ride he ever rode). Shark is also watching Yuma from where he is standing. Shark mutters YumaFlip comments on its quietness, while Caswell agrees (in the dub, Flip says that it's name. A voice calls out from behindsmooth sailing, asking about Sharkwhile Caswell is the one who comments on the quietness). The voice is revealed to be DumonAstral says that it's as he approaches Sharktoo quiet. Shark asks who he isTori says that she brought along snacks for the group to share. Dumon introduces himself as Yuma tells her that his grandma packed him a Duel lunch and says that they should eat (in the dub, Yuma says that Lillybot was the opponent one who will defeat Shark in a Duelpacked the lunch). An annoyed Shark asks if Dumon this is a field trip (picnic in the first Barian he'll get to defeat dub). Before Yuma can open his lunch, a siren sounds and adds that he'll engrave his name everything shakes, knocking everyone to Dumonthe floor. Kite asks what's mindup with these shocks. Rio confirms that several unidentified objects are coming at the airship. From another part She pulls up a screen and several Duel Monster spirits of "Sargasso[[Shadow Ghoul (character)|Shadow Ghoul]]", Kite is greeted by Mizar"[[Worm Drake (character)|Worm Drake]]", "[[Lord Poison (character)|Lord Poison]]", "[[Dark Jeroid (character)|Dark Jeroid]]" and "[[Berserk Dragon (character)|Berserk Dragon]]" appear on it. Mizar challenges Kite to a DuelYuma exclaims, putting the title of the true "Galaxy-EyesMonsters?!" master on Shark, Kite and Rio report that the linemonsters are coming at them in swarms. Orbital flies in Yuma asks Shark and Kite says that this is what he wantedto come with him, while Rio and Bronk offer to come along as well.
[[File:Yuma downfall95.png|thumb|left|Yuma screams Ray's name.]]Astral calls out to an unconscious Yuma, who awakens. Astral asks Yuma if he's okay. He confirms it and asks where they are. Astral says that he isn't sure, but it does not appear to be the Barian World. A voice from behind Astral declares that this is "Sargasso". Yuma turns around to find Vector standing in front of them. Vector welcomes him and Astral, saying that he had been waiting for them. Yuma says, "You're Vector!" Vector asks if Yuma had fun accepting the greeting his monsters gave him (in the dub, Vector calls it a "reception party"). Yuma deduces that Vector was the one who sent the monsters out. Astral asks where they are now (in the dub, Astral asks why Vector summoned them here) and Vector reiterates that they are in "Sargasso" and adds that this is the last place they'll ever see. Yuma demands Vector to let him see Ray. Chuckling, Vector asks Yuma if he wanted to see Ray that badly. He snaps his fingers and an unconscious Ray appears (in the dub, Vector adds that Ray is "resting"). Yuma mutters Ray's name, then yells it out. Yuma asks Vector what he did to Ray. Vector tauntingly says that Ray will not ever wake up, (in the dub, Vector reiterates that Ray is "resting", and that his rest will be an eternal one) as his eyes glow pink. This devastates Yuma, who shouts that Vector is lying. As Vector laughs in triumph, Yuma remembers [[Yu-Gi-Oh! ZEXAL - Episode 076|the first time that he met Ray]] after winning the [[World Duel Carnival]]. He also remembers [[Yu-Gi-Oh! ZEXAL - Episode 087|the time when Ray insisted on joining him]] during the Duel against [[Girag]] (Yuma's memories of Ray are cut from the dub). Yuma yells out Ray's name again in anguish. Yuma's friends are watching the spectacle from the airship. Tori mutters that Ray can't be dead. From the screen, Yuma falls to his knees (this is cut from the dub). Shark is also watching Yuma from where he is standing. Shark mutters Yuma's name. A voice calls out from behind, asking about Shark. The voice is revealed to be Dumon's as he approaches Shark. Shark asks who he is. Dumon introduces himself as the opponent who will defeat Shark in a Duel. Shark asks if Dumon is the first Barian he'll get to defeat and adds that he'll engrave his name to Dumon's mind. From another part of "Sargasso", Kite is greeted by Mizar. Mizar challenges Kite to a Duel, putting the title of the true "Galaxy-Eyes" master on the line. Orbital flies in and Kite says that this is what he wanted. Vector taunts Yuma again, telling him not to be so sad. He says that they'll get to see Ray again soon because they won't be leaving "Sargasso" alive. Teardrops fall from Yuma's face as he rises and declares that he'll never forgive Vector and that he'll defeat him. Yuma arms his [[D-Pad]] and well Shark and Kite do the same, with the latter initiating [[Photon Transformation]]. Mizar and Dumon throw off their cloaks and their D-Pads materialize. Vector keeps his cloak on as his D-Pad appears. Yuma and Shark don their Duel Gazers, while Kite's Duel Gazer tattoo appears around his eye. All six players yell, "Duel!" From the airship, Tori mutters Yuma's name. [[File:Astral warning95.png|thumb|Astral telling Yuma to calm down.]]Back at "Sargasso", Yuma goes first. He [[Normal Summon]]s "[[Goblindbergh (anime)|Goblindbergh]]" and [[activate]]s its effect to [[Special Summon]] a [[Level]] 4 or lower monster from his [[hand]]. He Special Summons "[[Ganbara Knight (anime)|Ganbara Knight]]", which emerges from the crate dropped by "Goblindbergh". Yuma [[Xyz Material|overlays]] his two Level 4 monsters to [[Xyz Summon]] "Number 39: Utopia". Vector comments that Yuma isn't very composed if he Summoned his ace monster on the first turn (in the dub, Vector sarcastically says that he'll get rid of "Utopia" right away). Yuma curses Vector in response. Astral warns Yuma that while he knows how Yuma feels, he must calm down. In Shark's Duel, Shark Normal Summons "[[Double Fin Shark (anime)|Double Fin Shark]]". He then Special Summons "[[Silent Angler (anime)|Silent Angler]]", as he [[control]]s a [[WATER]] monster. Shark continues with the effect of "Double Fin Shark"; it can be treated as two Overlay Units for an Xyz Summon. He overlays his three Level 4 monsters to Xyz Summon "Number 32: Shark Drake". Dumon simply watches Shark. At Kite's Duel, Kite Special Summons "[[Photon Thrasher (anime)|Photon Thrasher]]", as he controls no monsters. Next, he Normal Summons "[[Photon Delta Wing (anime)|Photon Delta Wing]]". Kite overlays his two Level 4 monsters to Xyz Summon "[[Starliege Lord Galaxion (anime)|Starliege Lord Galaxion]]". Mizar says Kite's name (in the dub, Mizar mutters, "Interesting..."). [[File:Sargasso effect.png|thumb|left|The effect of "[[Sargasso the Different Dimension Battlefield (anime)|Sargasso]]" activates.]]Vector calls Yuma a fool and activates the effect of the [[Field Spell Card]], "[[Sargasso the D.D. Different Dimension Battlefield(anime)|Sargasso the Different Dimension Battlefield]]". Yuma yells, "What?!" Thunderbolts rain down from the sky and strike down Yuma, Shark and Kite, inflicting 500 [[effect damage |damage]] to each of them. Yuma tries to get up and asks what kind of trick was that. Astral agrees with Yuma, asking, "Could this field be...?" (in the dub, Astral replies that this is something they may not be able to conquer){{clear}}
