[[Tokunosuke OmoteuraHyori (manga)|Tokunosuke]] defeats a [[Duelist]], who calls him despicable. Tokunosuke responds that the result can be brutal and that as they agreed, the man's Deck now belongs to Tokunosuke.  At [[Yuma Tsukumo(manga)|Yuma]]'s house, Yuma is in the bathroom, while [[Astral (manga)|Astral ]] floats outside the door. Yuma asks [[Astral]] why he's following him, with Astral telling him he's not so sure himself. Yuma is surprised it turned out this way, and reveals that Astral is known as the "Duelist's Spirit". He may be skilled, but Yuma does not want to rely on him. Yuma tells him to stop bugging him, with Astral saying he'd like to leave himself, but can't. [[File:Astral pokes his head through the door.png|thumb|150px|left|[[Astral (manga)|Astral]] pokes his head through the door.]]Astral muses that he may have an important mission to fulfill and that if they can obtain the "[[Number]]" cards, he may recover his memory. Yuma says that he's never heard of amnesiac spirit. Astral asks why he can't go inside the room with Yuma and Yuma claims that if someone sees a human "releasing energy", that human will die. Astral takes this as "observation 1" as he pokes his head through the door, but Yuma tells him not to remember that.  <div style="float: right">[[File:Todoroki talks about Yuma's talent.png|thumb|right|[[Takashi Todoroki (manga)|Takashi]] talks about [[Yuma Tsukumo (manga)|Yuma]]'s hidden talent.]]</div>Later, Yuma goes to school, and Astral asks what that place is.

Cathy grabs Yuma's arm, saying he must have won through his power of "[[Kattobingu|jetting]]". Kotori asks if Cathy isn't getting a little too close to Yuma and Cathy asks why she has a problem with that. Kotori and Cathy begin to yell at one another, as Yuma falls over. At that time, Tokunosuke, who was hidden, watching him, determines that his next target will be Yuma, and he believes something fishy must have happened for Yuma to beat Shark.  He later runs over to Yuma, asking him for his autograph. Yuma asks who he is, and Tokunosuke responds that he's in the neighboring class. In gratitude, Tokunosuke gives Yuma a "[[Baby Tiragon]]" card and Yuma is ecstatic to receive his own [[Xyz Monster]]. Tokunosuke tells him that this is proof of their friendship. As Yuma leaps in the air in excitement, Tokunosuke calls him a fool inside his mind, as he doesn't realize everything has an opposite side. Tokunosuke asks how Yuma beat Shark without an Xyz Monster. Yuma says he has one, but it isn't technically his. Tokunosuke determines that that must be Yuma's trump.
