"A Creeping Threat! The Mysterious Visitor" is the one hundred and fifty-seventh episode of the Yu-Gi-Oh! GX anime. It first aired in Japan on October 17, 2007.

Having ended his conflict with Yubel, Jaden returns to Duel Academy in order to complete his third and final year there. Duel Disks cease to function properly, and a new enemy appears.

Summary

Jaden arrives back at Duel Academy. In a letter to his late brother, Syrus narrates recent events. Things have returned to normal. Jesse, Jim and Axel have all returned via boat to their original schools. Vice-Chancellor Bonaparte and Marcel leave Duel Academy to attempt to strengthen their relationship as father and son. Syrus reveals that he, Chazz and Blair were all promoted to Obelisk Blue. Hassleberry declined a promotion, seeing what dorm he is in as irrelevant.

At the Slifer Red dorm, Jaden is napping. The spirit of Professor Banner appears and pesters him, while Jaden questions why Banner's ghost has not yet passed on. Banner responds he's more comfortable this way. Pharaoh arrives with a package for Jaden, which contains a red cell phone. Activating it, the person on the other end of the line informs him of something, which Jaden seems intrigued by.

At the card shop, complaints are coming in about the holographic technology of the Duel Disks no longer working. Students begin attempting to return large amounts of cards, thinking they are defective. Chazz and Alexis arrive at Chancellor Sheppard's office. Sheppard reveals he's called both Industrial Illusions and KaibaCorp in regards to the cards and the Duel Disks, respectively. With their representatives coming, Sheppard assigns Chazz and Alexis to gather up all the cards that are not working. They state they themselves have not encountered problems.

On Duel Academy's roof, Chazz and Alexis meet with Syrus, Hassleberry and Yusuke Fujiwara. Syrus offers to take Hassleberry and gather the defective cards from the Ra Yellow dorm. Alexis goes to the Blue dorm, while Chazz and Fujiwara head towards Duel Academy's computer center. It's revealed that Jaden is the sole inhabit of the Red dorm at this point, implying everyone else was promoted. On their way to the Yellow dorm, Syrus asks Hassleberry who Fujiwara is, and the latter responds that he's been one of Syrus' best friends since his first year.

At the computer center, Chazz also questions who Fujiwara is. The latter's eyes glow red, and he states that they've been friends for three years. He suggests Chazz that go to help Alexis at the Blue dorm, letting him handle the computer system. Chazz agrees and leaves. Fujiwara discovers information about the Abandoned Dorm, and he thinks it could be the key to finding his "master". Alexis contacts him on his PDA and tells him to come to the conference room. Once there, Fujiwara sees a dark aura surrounding the cards, which the others cannot see. He suggests they burn the cards, and the others decline. That night, Fujiwara sneaks into the room where they cards are being held, and burns them.

The school's sprinkler system and a fire extinguisher wielded by Hassleberry put out the fire, but not before most of the cards are burned. Those that remain still exhibit a dark aura, which rises up and combines, and exits the school. No one appears to be able to see this dark aura but Fujiwara and Winged Kuriboh. The latter flies off to inform Jaden. Fujiwara arrives at the Abandoned Dorm, but is chased off by the dark aura. Jaden intervenes and tells the aura to show his true form. It comments that he didn't expect any humans to be able to see it. The form changes, and a dark-clothed figure appears, who activates a Duel Disk.

Jaden easily wins the Duel in two turns, and his opponent disappears, though he has never seen the man's "Dark Archetype" card before. His voice rings out and states that this is only the beginning, and that they will surely meet again. Jaden questions who Fujiwara is, and the latter's eyes glow red once more as he claims they've known each other for years. Jaden's own eyes change colors - to the same bichromatic style of Yubel and he claims Fujiwara's "cheap tricks" won't work on him.

Featured Duel: Jaden Yuki vs. Trueman

Turn 1: Trueman
Trueman Summons "Dark Archetype" (1400/400) in Attack Position and Sets a card.

Turn 2: Jaden
Jaden Sets a card and Activates "Polymerization", fusing "Elemental Hero Bubbleman" and "Elemental Hero Avian" to Fusion Summon "Elemental Hero Mariner" (1400/1000). He then Activates "De-Fusion", splitting "Mariner" into "Bubbleman" (800/1200) and "Avian" (1000/1000) andTributes both to Summon "Elemental Hero Neos" (2500/2000). He Attacks "Dark Archetype". Mr T. activates his face-down "Zero Gazer" to reduce "Dark Archetype's" ATK to 0 and draw a card (Trueman 1500). When destroyed in battle, "Dark Archetype" enables Trueman to Special Summon a monster from his Deck, with an ATK equal to the Battle Damage inflicted to him, but he must first discard, from his hand, monsters whose Levels total the Level of the summoned monster. He discards "Familiar Knight" and "Zure, Knight of Dark World" to Special Summon "Reign-Beaux, Overlord of Dark World" (2500/1800).

Turn 3: Trueman
Trueman Equips "Reign-Beaux" with "Axe of Despair", giving it 1000 more ATK (3500/1800) and attacks "Neos". Jaden activates his face-down "Hero Shield", protecting "Neos" from destruction, but Jaden still takes Battle Damage. He is then permitted to draw one card for every 1000 damage taken (Jaden 3000). He draws "Neo Space".

Turn 4: Jaden
Jaden Activates "Neo Space", giving "Neos" 500 more ATK (3000/2000) and equips "Neos" with "Neos Force", giving Neos 800 more ATK (3800/2000). He Attacks "Reign-Beaux" (Trueman 1200). Because of "Neos Force's" effect, Trueman takes damage equal to his destroyed monster's ATK (Trueman 0).
