[[Seto Kaiba]] is the already waiting at the scene with his brother [[Mokuba Kaiba|Mokuba]]. [[Yugi Muto|Yugi]] and his group arrive, the members are [[Tristan Taylor]], [[Serenity Wheeler]], [[Téa Gardner]], [[Duke Devlin]], [[Joey Wheeler]] and [[Mai Valentine]]. Yugi, Joey and Mai qualify for finals. [[Marik Ishtar]] arrives and qualifies for the finals, and Joey is suspicious about his true identity but Marik quickly hypnotizes Tea to convince both Yugi and Joey of his false alias (He later remarks that he can take control of Tea anytime). At this time, [[Ryo Bakura]] arrives and also qualifies for the finals. Yugi is suspicious that [[Yami Bakura]] might have re-surfaced and Marik is surprised that he qualified despite only joining a day ago. [[Odion Ishtar]] comes in at this point, creating a commotion as Yugi, Kaiba and Joey recognize him as Marik, and Odion even identifies himself as Marik. All three swear to defeat him. However, in order to keep this illusion, Marik has given Odion the [[Millennium Rod]], but he seems to still hold some hypnosis powers.

At this time, Mokuba introduces the Battle Ship, a huge airship where the finals will take place.

Kaiba orders the airship to leave, but at the last minute [[Ishizu Ishtar]] arrives with a mask over her face to conceal her identity. The Battle Ship takes off at this point.

After obtaining 6 Locator Cards, the semi-finalists arrive at the Battle City finals secret location.

Summary[edit]

Seto Kaiba is waiting with his brother Mokuba for the Battle City finalists to arrive. The first three finalists, Yugi Muto, Joey Wheeler and Mai Valentine arrive with their friends, Tristan Taylor, Serenity Wheeler, Téa Gardner and Duke Devlin. Marik Ishtar, the next finalist, arrives but is still using his disguise of Namu. Joey is suspicious about his true motives, but eventually dismisses it. Bakura arrives even though he is still injured and announces he is also a finalist, baffling everyone. Odion comes in at this point, creating a commotion as Yugi, Kaiba and Joey recognize him as Marik, and Odion continues to identify himself as Marik, another finalist.

Bakura reveals his 6 Locator Cards.

Mokuba introduces Kaiba Craft 3, a huge airship where the finals will take place. The airship lands and all the contestants enter, although Yugi's friends are initially not allowed as they are not finalists but Mokuba persuades Kaiba to let them on.
