{{Chapter summary|The second stage of the [[D1 Grand Prix|D1GP]] goes on. [[Yusei Fudo (manga)|Yusei Fudo]], [[Leo (manga)|Leo]] and [[Luna (manga)|Luna]] keep advancing to the finals, and [[Rex Goodwin (manga)|Goodwin]] tasks the twins with testing Yusei's Duel Dragon's strength. While the fierce battles continue, [[Crow Hogan (manga)|Crow]] passes by a [[Duel Dragon]] [[Blank card]]. The card creates a dark aura, which takes his form - creating a [[Dark Crow Hogan|Dark Crow]]. Crow now has to face himself in a [[Duel]] in order to obtain his own Duel Dragon!}}
At the fifth [[Duel Zodiac]], [[Admire Derby]], with the [[Level|Level 8]] [[Star Ticket]], faces [[Adolf Mueller]], who has the [[Level|Level 3]] Ticket. Derby laughs, commenting that he bets he leaves Mueller in the dust. Mueller calmly replies that he'll show Derby that speed isn't everything in a [[Turbo Duel]]. At the tenth Duel Zodiac, [[Andre (manga)|Andre]] begins his second match against [[Ramon Kagura]], who vows revenge for losing to him at the eleventh Duel Zodiac, having not won a single Star Ticket yet. Andre, with the [[Level|Level 11]] Ticket, apologizes, but he's taking this Star Ticket too. The Double Unicorns are going to the final stage together. The scores stand as shown on the title caption.
At the second Duel Zodiac, [[Yusei Fudo (manga)|Yusei]] faces off against [[Jean (manga)|Jean]] with "[[Junk Defender (manga)|Junk Defender]]" and "[[Junk Dragonlet (manga)|Junk Dragonlet]]" on his field against Jean's 2800 [[ATK]] "[[Lightning Tricorn (manga)|Lightning Tricorn]]." Yusei, his [[Life Points]] at 700, draws, vowing to get the [[Level 2]] Star Ticket no matter what, drawing a card. Jean laughs, his own Life Points at 2000, commenting that Yusei's got spunk, but their strategy won't allow him to give this Star Ticket to Yusei. He thinks that Andre won't be happy if he doesn't have enough Star Tickets when they meet back up. Yusei Summons his [[Tuner monster]], "[[Screwturn, the Apprentice Warrior]]" and tunes the Level 2 "Screwturn" with the Level 3 "Junk Defender" to [[Synchro Summon]] his "[[Catapult Warrior (manga)|Catapult Warrior]]." Then he activates its effect, releasing "Junk Dragonlet" to inflict damage equal to its 2100 ATK to Jean, using "[[attack names|Dive Catapult]]" to fire "Junk Dragonlet" at Jean's [[Duel Runner]] and reduce his Life Points to zero. This nets Yusei the Level 2 Star Ticket. Jean offers him his, but Yusei explains that he only needs the one from this Duel Zodiac, Jean won his fair and square. Jean accepts that. Yusei thinks to himself that he has six Star Tickets now; if he gets the [[Level|Level 6]] Star Ticket, he'll have twelve, enough to get him through the Duel Gate. Telling Jean he's in a hurry, he hopes they'll Duel again, and drives off. Smiling Jean thinks that Yusei is strong, but his kindness may come back to bite him someday. Meanwhile, at the fourth Duel Zodiac, Tiger Eyes shakes in horror - the Star Ticket is gone from this Duel Zodiac as well, and he screams in frustration.
At the ruins of the Virtual Solid Sense Laboratory, [[Kalin Kessler (manga)|Kalin]] rests against a wall, smiling to himself, as he is listed as retired.
