→Barian Emperor Onslaught
Once Yuma regain full consciousness, Astral explained what happened after he fainted and his friends' deaths, which devastated him. Astral then listen to Yuma and Kite arguing about avoiding Dueling against Shark and the other Barians, Astral chimed in the discussion, saying there a way - defeating [[Don Thousand]] directly. Judging everything that's going on, he figured that Don Thousand was recovering his power and are using the Barians as pawns, but everything should back to normal if they defeat him. In agreement, Astral materialized the [[Different Dimension Airship]] for him and Yuma to journey to the [[Barian World]], with Tori accompanying the duo.<ref name="ep126">{{episode|Yu-Gi-Oh! ZEXAL|126|ref}}</ref> On the ship, Astral comforted Yuma over his fight with Trey and Quinton. He told Yuma that even though he disagreed with them, they were just following that path they believed was right for them, which Yuma agreed with.<ref name="ep127">{{episode|Yu-Gi-Oh! ZEXAL|127|ref}}</ref> When a screen materialized on the deck, Astral was shocked to see the Arclight brothers Dueling [[Mizar]]. He listened as Quinton explained that Kite was going to moon to investigate the [[Legend of the Dragons of Light and Time]], which was connected to the [[Numeron Code]]. After Yuma broke down after watching the brothers' defeat, Astral encouraged him stand up because everyone placed their trust in him.<ref name="ep128">{{episode|Yu-Gi-Oh! ZEXAL|128|ref}}</ref>
Immediately after this, [[Alito]] attacked the airship with "[[Number C105: Battlin' Boxer Comet Cestus]]", knocking Astral, Yuma and Tori from it. While Dueling with Alito, Astral could sense Don Thousand's aura emanating from him. After Astral finally realized that Thousand created "[[The Seventh One]]", the Barian god appeared before Astral and Yuma. He revealed that their pursuit of the [[Mythyrian Number]]s had contributed to his release and blamed the Astral World for starting the war with Barians in the first place. Thousand then taunted Astral and Yuma, urging them to try and stop him before disappearing. Astral continued to study "[[Number C105: Battlin' Boxer Comet Cestus]]" during the Duel and figured out that Don Thousand's power made the "Number" stronger. Astral suggested to Yuma that the only way break Don Thousand's curse on Alito was to use "[[Number 54: Lion Heart]]", which holds Alito's true memories.<ref name="ep129">{{episode|Yu-Gi-Oh! ZEXAL|129|ref}}</ref> [[File:YumaAndAstralStillBickering.png|right|200px|thumb|Yuma comments that Astral is becoming like him.]] They discussed that [[Kazuma Tsukumo|Kazuma]] must have predicted they would have to fight the Emperors and that the [[Mythyrian Number]]s are the key to Don Thousand’s curse. Using "Lion Heart", they were able to free Alito from Don Thousand's influence, but his hatred for his past remained. Astral believed that Barians' souls should have gone to Astral World initially, but Don Thousand caused them to became Barians instead from artificial hatred. Astral told Yuma to destroy "Comet Cestus" with "Lion Heart", hoping to learn something from the battle. Using "[[Champion's Sacred Cloak]] to bypass [[Number 80: Rhapsody in Berserk]] effects, they destroyed "Comet Cestsu" and won the Duel, allowing Alito to see his true memories. Afterwards, Alito agreed to cooperated cooperate with them to defeat Don Thousand, who was inside of [[Vector]].<ref name="ep130">{{episode|Yu-Gi-Oh! ZEXAL|130|ref}}</ref> Back on the ship, they group continued to traveled to the Barian until they were attacked by [[Girag]] and his "[[Number 106: Giant Hand]]".<ref name="ep131">{{episode|Yu-Gi-Oh! ZEXAL|131|ref}}</ref>
They attempted to reason with Girag, but they could not get through Thousand's control. Astral determined they'll have to break Don Thousand's curse the same way Yuma did with Alito and Duel Girag. However, Alito insisted that he'll be the one to Duel Girag instead of them, which they relented.<ref name="ep132">{{episode|Yu-Gi-Oh! ZEXAL|132|ref}}</ref> Astral quietly watched as Alito managed to free Girag from Don Thousand's curse at the cost of his own life. When Vector appeared before them, Astral was shocked to find all what happened to the other Barians as Vector adsorbed Girag's, Alito's, and [[Ponta]]'s souls. Vector proclaimed that he will defeat Astral and Yuma to get the [[Numeron Code]] before flying off.<ref name="ep133">{{episode|Yu-Gi-Oh! ZEXAL|133|ref}}</ref> Back on the airship, Astral silently watched as Yuma cried in despair from all the lost lives when a screen appeared on deck. Astral told Yuma to stand up, saying still others searching for a new light - such as Kite, who was Dueling [[Mizar]] on the moon for the key to the Numeron Code.<ref name="ep134">{{episode|Yu-Gi-Oh! ZEXAL|134|ref}}</ref> As Kite was at a disadvantage, Astral and Yuma explained to Mizar that he doesn't have to fight them because Don Thousand tempered with his memories. They also informed him that all his allies were betrayed by Vector and their souls was absorbed. However, Mizar refused to listen to them as Kite told them to stay out of his way. At the end of the Duel, Astral witnessed Kite beat Mizar, but became too weak to move. Astral then sadly watched as Kite bid farewell before the screen the screen blurred out from Orbital 7's shutdown.<ref name="ep135">{{episode|Yu-Gi-Oh! ZEXAL|135|ref}}</ref>
