He first appears in Satellite after Yusei duels and defeats Sect.

Sect, feeling pleased that Yusei now considers him as a rival, goes to the alter and performs the Sunset Salute. (This is a ritual where the duelist asks the Skeleton Knight for cards.) The factory transforms into a temple and the Skeleton Knight appears and quickly defeats Sect, claiming "A loser shouldn't ask me for my cards." Yusei duels and defeats the Skeleton Knight and after he asks for Yusei's name disappears. Sect later wakes up in a hospital with a powerful dark card. It overpowers him, leading him to join the Skeleton Knight's Crusade.{{Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's manga appearances|}}
