"Countdown to Defeat! The Terror of Deck Destruction" is the ninety-seventh episode in the Yu-Gi-Oh! ZEXAL anime. It first aired in Japan on March 31, 2013.
The Duels at "Sargasso the D.D. Battlefield" continue. To defeat Vector once and for all, Yuma and Astral attempt to use ZEXAL but Vector's words cause Astral to lose his trust in Yuma, turning them into Dark ZEXAL instead, while Shark and Kite are further driven back by "Sargasso".

Summary
 | This summary is currently incomplete. |
Having just reduced Yuma's Deck to three cards with "Vain Betrayer", Vector asks him why he shouldn't do his best - none of them will cross this field alive anyway, and all because Vector lured Yuma there. Yuma angrily curses Vector, who further asks him what he's hoping to accomplish when he can't even lay a hand on him. Yuma slumps as Vector points out that he's going to get revenge for him, isn't he? Both of their Life Points are shown, Yuma standing at 1600, Vector at 3800.
In the Different Dimension Airship, Caswell says that he can't believe that Ray was a Barian. Flip points out that Yuma knew the entire time and kept it from them, and Cathy wonders why he'd do something like that. Tori, meanwhile, just states that at this rate, Yuma and Astral will...
Yuma Sets a card and ends his turn, prompting Vector to remark that he'll take the effect of "Sargasso" that he promised him. Lightning strikes Yuma and Astral, reducing them to 1100 Life Points. Vector laughs at the sight, asking if this is what they call "tattered mind and soul?" He tells them that he'll hurt them even more before continuing to cackle.
Astral comments that they've learned the truth through Vector's trap, and he's completely toying with them. Yuma admits that this is his fault. Astral claims that it was also due to his carelessness - he intended to use their Barian card as a weapon without considering the risks involved. Yuma tells him to just say it already - if he hadn't talked with Ray, none of this would have happened. Astral can only utter Yuma's name before Vector agrees - it certainly wasn't a good idea to keep that secret from his partner, Astral. At Shark's field, Bronk mutters that Vector took advantage of Yuma's weakness. Rio adds that it's become a vulgar fight, while Shark and Kite remain silent. Vector continues, accusing Yuma of being a traitor for choosing their friendship over the one with his partner. Yuma protests that it was because he'd said it would protect Astral, but Vector remarks that he's just making excuses. As Yuma continues to lose his cool, Astral thinks that this isn't good - if this continues, he'll be lured into Vector's game completely. As he wonders what he should do, he feels an uneasiness that feels as if it's being generated by a fragment of darkness and wonders what it is.
Vector asks them what they're spacing out for, and begins his turn. He activates "Glorious Number", allowing him to Special Summon a "Number" from his Graveyard if he controls no monsters and draw a card. He Special Summons "Number 104: Masquerade", and comments that it's a pity after he's only just got "Utopia Ray V" out, it's all been a complete waste of time. Astral observes that Vector had even planned ahead to revive his "Number", and Yuma adds that if this keeps up, "Utopia Ray V" will be destroyed. Vector asks them why he'd do that, "Utopia Ray V" can't attack, use its effects, or even shield them, and as long as it's on the field, they'll continue to take the damage from "Sargasso." He tells them that they've gotta enjoy it thoroughly and continues to laugh madly. Instead of attacking, he uses "Masquerade's" effect, sending the "Spell Recycler" from the top of Yuma's Deck to the Graveyard, but preventing him from attacking with "Masquerade." He points out that they only have two cards left in their Deck, and when he loses the Duel, he'll sink into the darkness of "Sargasso." He wonders what will happen to Yuma's friends as well, causing Yuma to gasp in horror. On the Different Dimension Airship, Yuma's friends are horrified. Caswell asks in shock if this means they'll be buried in "Sargasso" forever. Cathy and Flip protest as well, but Tori just whispers Yuma's name. Vector comments that their frustrated expressions are great - now their worthless human friends will be reduced in number. Yuma is furious that Vector called them worthless, but Vector just Sets a card to end his turn.
Dumon tells Shark that he is coming at him - he activates the effect of "Number 102: Star Seraph Sentry", detaching an Overlay Unit to negate the effects of "Number 32: Shark Drake" and halve its ATK. "Star Seraph Sentry materializes and arrow of light and fires it from its bow, striking "Shark Drake" through the chest and reducing it to 1400 ATK. Dumon then declares his attack, and "Sentry" throws a spear of light as it attacks with "Lightning Cluster", destroying "Shark Drake" and reducing Shark to 1900 Life Points. Bronk yells his name. Mizar also attacks, destroying "Starliege Lord Galaxion" with "Number 107: Galaxy-Eyes Tachyon Dragon's" "Tachyon Spiral of Annihilation" and reducing Kite to 2000 Life Points. Orbital 7 calls out his master's name, and both Shark and Kite land in a crouch. Yuma sees them on two screens, and likewise yells out their names. Vector comments that it's pretty pitiful that those idiots followed Yuma around.
Shark activates a Trap, "Shark Revenge Splash", which allows him to revive "Number 32: Shark Drake", reduce its ATK by 1000, and then inflict the resulting ATK to Dumon as damage. "Shark Drake" launches its jaw-shaped energy blast and knocks Dumon backwards, reducing him to 2200 Life Points. Bronk and Rio cheer, but Dumon points out that Shark will take damage form "Sargasso", and Shark is hit by the lightning, reducing him to 1400 Life Points. Bronk is concerned, but Rio reassures him that Shark will tear through Dumon's flesh and crush his bones, and make a last second break through his tactics. Dumon Sets a card, ending his turn, and Shark begins his own turn. He uses "Shark Drake" as Xyz Material, performing a Chaos Xyz Evolution. His body glows purple as "Shark Drake" returns to its sealed form and enters the overlay network, and he declares that "the mightiest fangs awake from an abyss of pitch black darkness" as he summons "Number C32: Shark Drake Veiss". Bronks protests that he'll take "Sargasso's" effect again, and Shark is struck by lightning, lowering is Life Points to 900. Rio reassures him that that's fine, pointing out that when "Shark Drake Veiss" is summoned while Shark has more than 1000 Life Points, it's destroyed. By using the effect of "Sargasso", he was able to keep it on the field. Bronk is shocked that Shark planned that far, and Dumon praises Shark. He always knew that Shark was a man like this, and he makes him think of "that guy", commenting on Shark's savage way of speaking and a straightforward soul that can be felt head on, and conducting an honest and earnest Duel despite this. Shark just tells him to save the sleep-talk for his bed.
Kite begins his turn and activates "Triangle Evolve", allowing him to use a Level 5 or higher monster he controls as three materials for an Xyz Summon. He chooses "Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon", which splits into three copies and overlays them. Mizar notes the Xyz Summon and speculates what Kite is summoning. Kite brings out "Neo Galaxy-Eyes Photon Dragon", but he is struck by "Sargasso's" lightning and reduced to 1500 Life Points. Kite then states "Neo Galaxy Eyes" will lose 1000 ATK due to "Triangle Evolve". Mizar states that the battlefield has been set up, and he activates his Trap card, "Neutrino Dowsing"; when Kite Xyz Summons, he can detach an Overlay Unit from a "Galaxy-Eyes" monster on his field, and then send "Rank-Up-Magic Barian's Force" to the Graveyard to activate its effect; Ranking-Up "Tachyon Dragon" and Summoning a "Chaos Number." Mizar then Summons "Number C107: Neo Galaxy-Eyes Tachyon Dragon". This time the "Number's" sealed form appears, transforming into a golden, three headed form of "Number 107: Galaxy-Eyes Tachyon Dragon," with 4500 ATK. Kite grimly observes the "Chaos Number," remembering the last time it was Summoned; though the said Duel ended before he got the chance to see it. Mizar takes damage from "Sargasso" and states that the time has come for their true match.
Suddenly, the Different Dimension Ariship is dragged backwards. Vector explains that black holes periodically open in Sargasso and draw everything within reach inside them. He gives Yuma the choice of saving his friends and surrendering, or continuing the Duel and letting them be sucked in. Yuma is unable to choose, especially as he feels that he's repsonsible for dragging them into the situation. Tori contacts Yuma, and tells her not to worry about them and focus on the Duel, before taking command of the Airship, assisted by Orbital 7, and they begin to escape the singularity, cheered on by Yuma. After they have done so, Shark and Kite remind Yuma that they came to Sargasso of their own will, and tell Yuma to beat Vector. Apologizing to Astral, the duo attempt ZEXAL.
However, Vector reminds Astral that Yuma lied to him, trusting Ray over his own partner, and pointing out the tiny crack of darkness in Astral's heart. Despite their denial of such, the ZEXAL Morph is undone, and they are thrown aparrt. The darkness in Astral's emerges, and wraps around him in a similar manner to his possession by Number 96, before engulfing him as he screams in pain. The darkness bursts apart to reveal that Astral has taken on a darker, angrier colour scheme, and he moves in close to Yuma, chanting "ZEXAL" madly. Yuma can only ask Astral what is the matter for him before Astral surrounds them in darkness with a final cry of "ZEXAL!" Even Vector is shocked by the turn of events as the darkness clears, revealing ZEXAL standing before them, but with a darker colour scheme and a dark purple aura. The new fusion opens its eyes and looks at Vector.

He Special Summons "Number 104: Masquerade" (2700/1200) in Attack Position. Vector activates the effect of "Shining", sending the top card of Yuma's Deck ("Spell Recycler") to the Graveyard, though "Shining" may not attack this turn (Yuma's Deck: 3 → 2). Vector Sets a card.
Turn 5: Yuma
Yuma and Astral attempt ZEXAL Morph, but a few words from Vector stop the process and Astral turns dark. Astral forcefully uses ZEXAL with Yuma, re-intiating the process as Dark ZEXAL.
Duel continues in the next episode.

"Number 107: Galaxy-Eyes Tachyon Dragon" attacks and destroys "Starliege Lord Galaxion" (Kite 3000 → 2000).[Notes 1]
Turn 3: Kite
Kite activates "Triangle Evolve", targeting a Level 5 or higher monster he controls and letting him treat it as three Overlay Units for an Xyz Summon, though the Summoned Xyz Monster will lose 1000 ATK.

Battlefield" activates as he Summoned an Xyz Monster, inflicting 500 damage (Kite 2000 → 1500). Mizar activates his face-down "Neutrino Dowsing" as his opponent Special Summoned an Xyz Monster.

He targets "Tachyon Dragon" and sends "Rank-Up-Magic Barian's Force".

"Star Seraph Sentry" attacks and destroys "Shark Drake" (Shark 3000 → 1900). As a "Shark" monster was destroyed, Shark activates his face-down "Shark Revenge Splash", Special Summoning the destroyed monster with its ATK reduced by 1000 and inflicting damage to his opponent equal to the monster's current ATK. He Special Summons "Shark Drake" (2800 → 1800/2100) in Attack Position (Dumon 4000 → 2200) and the effect of "Sargasso the D.D.
