Episode Summary The
Genex tournament is in full swing, but
Jaden and his friends are in a slump—
Jaden more than
Syrus and
Hassleberry , since no challengers have approached him for a Duel. Meanwhile,
Pegasus and
Chumley have arrived on
Duel Academy Island from
Industrial Illusions , searching for a stolen copy of the strongest
Egyptian God Card , "
The Winged Dragon of Ra ". It is later discovered that a man named
Franz has stolen the card, and has sneaked his way into the
Genex tournament . When
Franz finds them, he challenges
Pegasus to a Duel, stating that the winner will claim the stolen card. However, it's
Jaden who ends up dueling
Franz , and must ultimately find a way to free
Ra from a confining
Field Spell that forces it to use its powers against its will.

Jaden's Turn
Franz's Turn
Summons his "Ra's Disciple " (1100/600) in Attack Position and activates its effect: When it's summoned, Franz can add up to 2 more of the same card from his Deck to his hand
Activates "Trap Booster " and discards a card. Now, any Trap Card can be activated from his hand. He chooses to activate "Ultimate Offering ". With the effect of this Trap , Franz can Normal Summon 1 additional monster for the cost of 500 Life Points per monster . Paying 1000 Life Points (Franz: 3000 LP), he summons his 2 other "Disciples " from his hand.
Paying an additional 500 Life Points (Franz: 2500 LP), Franz tributes his 3 "Disciples " and chants the ancient spell that can summon "The Winged Dragon of Ra " (????/????), who appears in Attack Position .
Activates "Ra's " first effect ; its ATK and DEF are both equal to the total ATK and DEF of the tributed monsters (3300/1800)
Pegasus tries to warn Franz that "Ra " will not obey him, but Franz boasts that he can control "Ra " and proves it by activating his Field Spell , "Mound of the Bound Creator ". With this Field Spell now in play, all Level 10 Monsters can attack, regardless of any conditions or restrictions.
"Ra " attacks and destroys "Necroid Shaman " (Jaden: 2600 LP). Now, Franz can activate his "Bound Creator's " effect . Since "Ra ", a Level 10 Monster , destroyed a monster Jaden controlled, Jaden takes 400 extra points of damage . (Jaden: 2200 LP)
Jaden's Turn

Jaden's Turn
Franz's Turn
Jaden's Turn
Activates the Field Spell "Skyscraper 2 - Hero City ". With a new Field Spell now in play, "Mound of the Bound Creator " is automatically destroyed .
"Skyscraper 2 " allows Jaden to summon 1 "Elemental Hero " monster from his Graveyard —as long as it was destroyed in battle first—once during every one of his turns. He re-summons his "Neos " from his Graveyard in Attack Position . (2500/2000)
He also summons "Neo-Spacian Glow Moss " (300/900) in Attack Position and attacks with it, activating its effect : When it battles during the Battle Phase , Franz must draw 1 card from his Deck and show it to Jaden . "Glow Moss's " effect depends on the card he draws.
The top card of Franz's Deck is "Monster Reborn ", a Spell Card , which means "Glow Moss " can attack Franz directly , but Franz activates the inverse properties of "Ra's " "Point-to-Point Transfer " effect: He activates "De-Fusion ", which separates him from "Ra ", drops its ATK and DEF to 0, and increases his Life Points by the same amount of ATK that he drained from "Ra ". (Franz: 4500 LP)
On this note, Jaden must replay his battle and target "Ra " with "Glow Moss ", who destroys it. (Franz: 4200 LP)
Then, "Neos " attacks Franz directly . (Franz: 1700 LP)
After that attack, Jaden activates "Necro Illusion ". Since a monster Franz controlled was destroyed in battle and sent to the Graveyard , Jaden can re-summon it to the field under his control. He re-summons "The Winged Dragon of Ra " (????/????) and activates its "Point-to-Point Transfer " effect : He pays 899 of his 900 leftover Life Points (Jaden: 1 LP) and then tributes his "Neos " and "Glow Moss ". The combined ATK and DEF of all the Tributed monsters and the Life Points Jaden paid automatically become "Ra's " ATK and DEF (3699/3799). (However, unlike Franz , Jaden does not fuse himself with "Ra " for some unknown reason.)
"Ra " attacks Franz directly (Franz: 0 LP), and Jaden wins the Duel and Franz's 3 Genex medals.
