==Summary==
[[Echo]] willingly steps forward to be sacrificed by [[Adrian Gecko|Adrian]] in order to release [[Exodia]]'s seal during the latter's [[Duel]] with [[Aster Phoenix|Aster]]. Aster questions how Adrian can claim to love Echo but still be wiling to sacrifice her. Adrian refuses to respond, and Exodia's hand appears and grabs Echo. Aster states he won't continue the Duel, but Adrian responds that they can't stop now - neither can leave until one of them loses. Adrian Summons "[[Exodius the Ultimate Forbidden Lord (anime)|Exodios the Ultimate Forbidden Lord]]" and Aster comments that it's "a different Exodia". This card actually makes it ''beneficial'' to [[send]] Exodia pieces to the [[Graveyard]] - if all five are sent there via it's effect, Adrian can declare an automatic win.
[[Jaden Yuki|Jaden]] comments that Adrian is just like him - they are both willing to risk everything to gain power. In the Japanese version, Aster specifically says that this isn't a sacrifice - it's murder. Adrian freely agrees with him - it is murder. Aster attempts to counter Adrian's strategy by playing cards that skip Adrian's [[Battle Phase]], which would prevent him from sending Exodia pieces to the Graveyard. However, Adrian ultimately wins by playing "[[Rage of the Forbidden One]]", [[negate|negating]] Aster's "[[Plasma Discharger]]". This allows him sacrifice Echo, win the Duel, and release Exodia - who becomes his servant. With Exodia's power, Adrian is free from [[Yubel (character)|Yubel]]'s, and thus the [[Devil Arm]] fades away and is replaced with his own.
<u>'''Turn 5: Adrian'''</u><br/>
Adrian has just activated the effect of "[[Ritual of the Ultimate Forbidden Lord]]" with [[Echo]] having agreed to offer her life force in exchange for the awakening of [[Exodia]]. Due to the effect of "[[Ritual of the Ultimate Forbidden Lord]]", Adrian returns "[[Exodia the Forbidden One (anime)|Exodia the Forbidden One]]" from his [[Graveyard]] to his [[Main Deck|Deck]], discards "[[Right Arm of the Forbidden One (anime)|Right Arm of the Forbidden One]]" and "[[Left Arm of the Forbidden One (anime)|Left Arm of the Forbidden One]]" from his hand, and [[Special Summon]]s "[[Exodius the Ultimate Forbidden Lord(anime)|Exodios the Ultimate Forbidden Lord]]" (?/0) in [[Attack Position]].
Since "Exodios" was Special Summoned through the effect of "Ritual of the Ultimate Forbidden Lord", a "[[Forbidden One]]" monster will return to Adrian's Deck if it was not sent to the Graveyard through the third effect of "Exodios the Ultimate Forbidden Lord".<ref group=Notes name=Exodius>In the ''TCG''/''OCG'', as "[[Ritual of the Ultimate Forbidden Lord]]" has, to date, not been released, "[[Exodius the Ultimate Forbidden Lord]]" requires one to return all [[monster]]s in their [[Graveyard]] to their [[Main Deck|Deck]].</ref>
Due to the fourth effect of "Exodios the Ultimate Forbidden Lord", it gains 1000 [[ATK]] for each differently named "[[Forbidden One]]" monster in Adrian's Graveyard. There are currently two ("Exodios": ? → 2000/0). In addition, if five differently named "[[Forbidden One]]" monsters are in Adrian's Graveyard and "Exodios the Ultimate Forbidden Lord" is present on Adrian's side of the field, Adrian can declare an automatic win.<ref group=Notes name=Exodius2>In the ''TCG''/''OCG'', "[[Exodius the Ultimate Forbidden Lord]]" gains 1000 [[ATK]] for each [[Normal Monster]] in the player's [[Graveyard]], not each "[[Forbidden One]]" card.</ref>
"Exodios" attacks "[[Destiny HERO Hero - Disk Commander(anime)|Destiny Hero - Disk Commander]]". Adrian activates the third effect of "Exodios" to send "[[Right Leg of the Forbidden One (anime)|Right Leg of the Forbidden One]]" from his hand to the Graveyard ("Exodios": 2000 → 3000/0). "Exodios" then destroys "[[Destiny HERO - Disk Commander|Destiny Hero - Disk Commander]]" (Aster 4000 → 1300).
<u>'''Turn 6: Aster'''</u><br/>
Aster draws "[[Destiny HERO Hero - Malicious(anime)|Destiny Hero - Malicious]]". He then [[Set|sets]] a card. Aster then activates the effect of "[[Destiny HERO Hero - Dunker(anime)|Destiny Hero - Dunker]]" by sending "Destiny Hero - Malicious" from his hand to the Graveyard (Adrian 1800 → 1300). Through the effect of "[[Destiny Hero - Diamond Dude (anime)|Destiny Hero - Diamond Dude]]", Aster then activates the effect of "[[Doctor D]]" from his Graveyard to Special Summon revive "[[Destiny HERO - Disk Commander|Destiny Hero - Disk Commander]]" from his Graveyard in Attack Position (300/300)in Attack Position. The effect of "Disk Commander" activates, letting Aster [[Draw a card|draw]] two cards.
Aster then [[Tribute|Tributes]] s "[[Destiny HERO - Diamond Dude|Destiny Hero - Diamond Dude]]", "[[Destiny HERO - Disk Commander|Disk Commander]]", and "[[Destiny HERO - Dunker|Dunker]]" in order to [[Special Summon]] "[[Destiny HERO Hero - Dogma(anime)|Destiny Hero - Dogma]]" (3400/2400) in Attack Position. "Destiny Hero - Dogma" attacks "Exodios the Ultimate Forbidden Lord". Due to the first effect of "Exodios", it is not destroyed (Adrian 1300 → 900).<ref group=Notes name=Exodius3>In the ''TCG''/''OCG'', "[[Exodius the Ultimate Forbidden Lord]]" does not have an effect that protects it from being destroyed, either [[destroyed by battle|by battle]] or by the effects of [[Effect Monster|Monster]]s, [[Spell Card|Spell]]s and [[Trap Card|Trap]]s.</ref>
<u>'''Turn 7: Adrian'''</u><br/>
Adrian draws. During Adrian's Standby Phase, the effect of "Destiny Hero - Dogma" activates, halving Adrian's Life Points (Adrian 900 → 450). "Exodios the Ultimate Forbidden Lord" attacks "Destiny Hero - Dogma". Adrian then activates the third effect of "Exodios" to send "[[Left Leg of the Forbidden One (anime)|Left Leg of the Forbidden One]]" from his hand to the Graveyard ("Exodios": 3000 → 4000/0). "Exodios" then destroys "Dogma" (Aster 1300 → 700).
<u>'''Turn 8: Aster'''</u><br/>
Aster draws "[[D - Mind (anime)|D - Mind]]" and subsequently activates it to Special Summon "[[Destiny HERO Hero - Departed(anime)|Destiny Hero - Departed]]" (1000/0) from his Deck in Attack Position as he controls no "[[Destiny HERO|Destiny Hero]]" monsters. Aster then [[Banish|removes from play]] "[[Destiny HERO Hero - Malicious(anime)|Destiny Hero - Malicious]]" from his Graveyard in order to Special Summon another "Destiny Hero - Malicious" from his Deck (800/800) in Attack Position. Aster then Normal Summons "[[D3 (anime)|D3]]" (0/0) in Attack Position. He then Tributes "D3", "Destiny Hero - Malicious", and "Destiny Hero - Departed" in order to Special Summon "[[Destiny HERO Hero - Plasma(anime)|Destiny Hero - Plasma]]" (1900/600) in Attack Position.
Aster then activates his face-down "[[Drain Time]]" and declares [[Battle Phase]] for its effect. Now both players must skip their next phase of Aster's choice. Aster then [[Set|sets]] a card.
<u>'''Turn 9: Adrian'''</u><br/>
Adrian draws. During Adrian's Standby Phase, Aster activates his face-down "[[Plasma Roar]]", which gains a [[Plasma Counter (counter)Plasma Counter]] due to "[[Destiny HERO - Plasma|Destiny Hero - Plasma]]"being present on Aster's field. Now if there are two or more [[Plasma Counter (counter)|Plasma Counter]]s placed on "Plasma Roar", Aster can send "Plasma Roar" to the Graveyard, destroy one monster on the field, and inflict half of that monster's ATK as [[Effect Damage|damage]] to Adrian. Adrian then Sets a card.
<u>'''Turn 10: Aster'''</u><br/>
Aster draws. During Aster's Standby Phase, the first effect of "[[Destiny HERO - Departed|Destiny Hero - Departed]]" activates, Special Summoning itself from Aster's Graveyard to Adrian's side of the field (1000/0) in Attack Position. "[[Destiny HERO - Plasma|Plasma]]" attacks "[[Destiny Hero - Departed|Departed]]", but Adrian activates his face-down "[[Defense Seal Wall]]" to negate the attack and end the Battle Phase as he controls "[[Exodius the Ultimate Forbidden Lord|Exodios the Ultimate Forbidden Lord]]".
Aster then activates the effect of "Destiny Hero - Plasma", [[Equip|equipping]] "Destiny Hero - Departed" onto it and increasing its ATK by half the ATK of "Destiny Hero - Departed" ("Plasma": 1900 → 2400/600) as well as granting "Plasma" all of the effects of "Destiny Hero - Departed".<ref group=Notes name=plasma>In the [[OCG]]/[[TCG]], "[[Destiny HERO - Plasma|Destiny Hero - Plasma]]" does not gain the effects of its [[equipped]] [[Monster Card|monster]].</ref> Aster Sets a card.
<u>'''Turn 11: Adrian'''</u><br/>
Adrian draws. During Adrian's [[Standby Phase]], "[[Plasma Roar]]" gains a second [[Plasma Counter (counter)|Plasma Counter]]. Aster plans to activate the final effect of "Plasma Roar" on his next turn to destroy "Destiny Hero - Plasma" and inflict half of the latter's ATK as damage to Adrian.
"Exodios the Ultimate Forbidden Lord" attacks "Destiny Hero - Plasma", but Aster activates his face-down "[[Plasma Discharger]]" to destroy "Destiny Hero - Departed" ("Destiny Hero - Plasma": 2400 → 1900/600) and end Adrian's Battle Phase, however Adrian activates "[[Rage of the Forbidden One]]" to negate the effect of "Plasma Discharger". Adrian then activates the third effect of "Exodios" to send "[[Exodia the Forbidden One]]" from his hand to the Graveyard ("Exodios": 4000 → 5000/0).
Since there are five differently named "[[Forbidden One]]" monsters in Adrian's Graveyard and "Exodios the Ultimate Forbidden Lord" is present on Adrian's side of the field, Adrian automatically wins the Duel (this is visualized by "Exodia", and not "Exodios" appearing to attack "Plasma").
