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.
