Nagumo picks up his monster "Wild Spider" to get ready for the next round. He understands that if he doesn't pay attention to the game, he will get hurt, but now it's Yugi's turn, he says. Yugi explains again that the game consists of three sets, first to win two wins and that Yugi has now claimed the first set. Nagumo reminds Yugi that he too is a gamer and can play seriously if he has too. He hates to say it, but agrees to play fair.

The next panel includs a set of rules of Monster Fighter for the readers in case any of them hadn't read the previous chapter recently.

The next panel gives details on Nagumo's monster, "Wild Spider". Its weak point is its face, its special attack is "Spider Death Trap". A hexagon displays its strengths on a scale of 0 to 3. Kick strength, guard strength and endurance are at 3. Power and punch strength are at 2. Speed is at 1.

The next panel gives details on Yugi's monster, "Killer Emaada". Its weak point is its side. Its secret attack is space cannon. Its punch strength and power are at 3. Kick strength, guard and speed are at 2. Endurance is at 1.

Nagumo claims to have learned to fight on the street as reflected by his Monster Fighter strategy; judging distance, skills and techniques as well as psyching his opponent out. Because of this he claims there is no way he could lose to a kid like Yugi, who has never been in a fight.

The second round starts. Nagumo calls out all his moves as he executes them and Yugi blocks. Nagumo yells "left hook" and Yugi gets "Killer Emaada" to put out its right hand ready to block. However "Wild Spider" barely moves its left arm and quickly pulls it back before Nagumo launches an attack with its right hand. Yugi realizes the left hook was a feint and doesn't have time to block the real attack. However Yugi switches off the power on his fighter, causing "Killer Emaada" to flop forward, avoiding the punch. Yugi promptly switches the power back on to continue the fight.

Yugi announces a middle kick. "Killer Emaada" raises its leg and Nagumo gets "Wild Spider" to block. However Yugi used the feint strategy too and "Killer Emaada's" leg quickly moves from mid-body to high and kicks "Wild Spider" in the head, which is its weak point. Nagumo's grip starts to vibrate, indicating he can't move his monster for two seconds. He knows that all Yugi needs to do now is pull his finishing move trigger to win. Nagumo refuses to lose to Yugi, so he quickly kicks him in the side, outside of the game, preventing Yugi from initiating his finishing move.

Nagumo laughs that this is how he fights and the tables have now turned. "Wild Spider" has unfrozen and Nagumo gets it to crouch and duck under "Killer Emaada". "Wild Spider" quickly raises its head, throwing "Killer Emaada" into the air. Nagumo calls it a fly in a spider's web and has "Wild Spider" use its open air combo, "Spider Death Trap", where it launches an array of punches at "Killer Emaada". Due to the nature of the Shadow Game, Yugi feels the pain his monster would be taking.
