Summary[edit]

  • Joey is stuck in a large manor and accidentally destroys a wall when he kicks it. A hidden door takes him to the KaibaCorp blimp.
  • Inside the blimp he finds Mai's unconscious body, but it is actually Johnson in disguise.
  • Johnson turns the room into a courthouse and transforms into his Deck Master, "Judge Man". Joey chooses "Flame Swordsman" as his Deck Master.
  • Téa and Yugi wander through the Antarctic environment until they find a door. It leads to the room where Joey is Dueling Johnson.
  • Kaiba and Mokuba view another scene from their past. Seto had visited Gozaburo in his office at KaibaCorp and proposed a virtual game software to him, but it was thrown back at him since Gozaburo claimed he only cared about building weapons. After having Kaiba removed by security, Gozaburo stole the idea and used it to help build the Virtual World. This scene affected present-day Kaiba more strongly than any of the previous had.
