"The Strongest of the P-Series!!" is the sixty-second chapter of the Yu-Gi-Oh! GX manga.

Jaden Yuki and Chazz Princeton continue their Duel with Tragoedia. Though they had an early advantage, Tragoedia makes a comeback, before he finally Summons his ace monster, "The Supremacy Sun".

Summary

Both Midori and Zane both arrive at the warehouse on the docks near Duel Academy's docks; both are surprised to see the other there. Midori asks what Zane is doing there, and he responds that he saw Syrus and Alexis running towards the location looking worried. He believes they went into the warehouse. Zane states that there's something off about the exchange matches this year, having heard that people have been losing consciousness due to to Dueling. Midori tells him to leave it to her, and instructs him to return his dorm. He responds that he'll see what is going on with his own eyes, believing Midori already knows. The two duck down to enter the warehouse in time to see Jaden's "Elemental Hero Gaia" attack Tragoedia directly. Syrus is excited, knowing that Jaden and Chazz will win if the attack hits. Tragoedia states that their bonus round is over and activates his face-down "Beacon from Duat", paying half his Life Points to destroy all monsters on the field. Jaden responds by activating his face-down "Element Intervention", removing "Gaia" from play for the duration of the turn to negate "Beacon from Duat".

Jaden declares that if "Gaia" failed, he'll attack with Chazz's "Light End Dragon instead. Tragoedia activates his face-down "Ruined Future", halving his Life Points again to destroy "Light End Dragon" and inflict effect damage to Jaden and Chazz equal to its ATK. Chazz activates his face-down "Dragon's Shimmering Scales", returning "Light End" to his hand and Special Summoning a Dragon-Type monster of the same Level from his hand - "Dark End Dragon". He states that light and darkness are two sides of the same coin. Chazz reveals that a monster Summoned with "Dragon's Shimmering Scales" cannot attack the turn it is Summoned. Jaden questions why Tragoedia would take all that damage on Chazz's previous turn when he had both of those Trap Cards Set. Jaden Sets "Hero Signal" and during the End Phase, "Gaia" returns to the field. Midori mutters that this Duel is a Shadow Duel and Zane questions what she means before seeing Atticus' unconscious body slumped against the nearby crates. No one had realized that Midori and Zane were there. Tragoedia states that humans really are like insects - they keep crawling in one after the other. Jaden tells Midori that he can't turn his back anymore, and she urges him to defeat Tragoedia.

Tragoedia questions if he'll be able to do that. He declares that since his Life Points are under 1000, he may Special Summon "The Boundless Dead" from his hand. Its ATK is equal to his opponent's Life Points minus 100, so it has 3900 ATK. Tragoedia activates "The World of True Darkness", which will negate all damage to both players, while Traogeida will gain Life Points equal to the damage that Jaden and Chazz would normally take. Though their Life Points will not decrease, they will feel real damage and pain from the Shadow Duel. "The Boundless Dead" attacks and destroys "Gaia" and Tragoedia's Life Points rise to 1800. Jaden activates his face-down "Hero Signal", Special Summoning "Elemental Hero Shadow Mist" from his Deck in Defense Position. Tragoedia activates "Prediction", which lets him declare one action during his opponent's Standby Phase. That action will be negated. He ends his turn and Chazz draws. Tragoedia declares that Chazz will use the effect of "Dark End Dragon" via "Prediction", so its effect is negated. Jaden is worried, as if they don't do something about "Prediction", Jaden's Fusion Summons would be canceled as well. Chazz Normal Summons "Reincarnation Dragon Samsara" in Defense Position and Sets a card. Tragoedia is surprised hat Chazz left "Dark End" in Attack Position, reiterating that the damage will become real. He states he'll give Chazz the pain he desires.

"The Boundless Dead" attacks "Dark End Dragon", but Chazz activates his face-down "Dragon's Devil Eyes". As he controls two Dragon-Type monsters, he destroys both "The True World of Darkness" and "Prediction". Their Life Points drop due to the attack, and "Dark End" is destroyed. With this decrease, the ATK of "The Boundless Dead" drops to the same amount - 2700. Tragoedia is impressed that Chazz would drop their Life Points to break through. Tragoedia activates "Lost Property of the Dead", which will increase his Life Points by 500 for each Spell and Trap Card in his Graveyard. With "Beacon from Duat", "Ruined Future", "The World of True Darkness" and "Prediction", he gains 2000 Life Points. Tragoedia Normal Summons "Ghost of a Thousand Eyes" in Defense Position and Sets a card. Jaden draws "Elemental Hero Ocean" and is pleased to see it. He activates "Polymerization", fusing "Ocean" with "Shadow Mist" to Fusion Summon "Elemental Hero Escuridão" in Attack Position. It gains 100 ATK for each "Elemental Hero" in Jaden's Graveyard. With "Knospe", "Woodsman", "Gaia", "Ocean" and "Shadow Mist" there, the ATK of "Escuridão" becomes 3000. Syrus exclaims that its ATK if higher than that of "The Boundless Dead". Jaden attacks with Dark Diffusion, destroying "The Boundless Dead". Tragoedia activates his face-down "Descendants of the Dead", Special Summoning two Level 3 or lower monsters as a Level 5 or higher monster was destroyed. He Special Summons two "Three-Eyed Ghosts" from his Deck in Defense Position. Jaden ends his turn.

Midori and Zane question where Tragoedia got these monsters from - they've not seen or heard of them anywhere before. Tragoedia responds that he created the Deck himself, solely for his own purposes. He stats that a Deck is the like the destiny of the Duelist that wields it and that he is in control of not only his own destiny, but that of all the insect-like humans as well. Chazz questions if that is Tragoedia's cure for his boredom. He responds that this Duel has provided a moment of fun for him that he's not had in a while. Jaden retorts that they'll end his destiny. Tragoedia tells him to try if they truly can. He activates the effect of one of his "Three-Eyed Ghosts", sending it to the Graveyard to add a monster from his Deck to his hand. He then Tributes his other "Three-Eyed Ghost" and his "Ghost of a Thousand Eyes" to Normal Summon "The Supremacy Sun" in Attack Position. Jaden is surprised to see another planet card. The effect of "Ghost of a Thousand Eyes" activates, letting Tragoedia Special Summon a Level 4 monster from his Deck. He chooses another "Ghost of a Thousand Eyes", which appears in Defense Position. The ATK of "The Supremacy Sun" is equal to that of "Escuridão". Tragoedia attacks using Solar Flare, destroying both monsters. He Sets a card to end his turn. Chazz draws and Summons "Red Wyrm" in Attack Position. Jaden thinks that Tragoedia's field has one Set card and one monster. He attempts to use the alternate function of his Academia Disk to check Tragoedia's Graveyard and find out what the effect of "The Supremacy Sun" is.

Jaden activates his face-down "Element Intervention", removing "Gaia" from play for the duration of the turn to negate "Beacon from Duat". Jaden attacks directly with Chazz's "Light End Dragon", but Tragoedia activates his face-down "Ruined Future", which would destroy "Light End Dragon" and inflict damage equal to half the ATK of "Light End Dragon" to Jaden and Chazz's Life Points by paying half his own (Tragoedia 100).

Jaden's turn
