[[Katsuya Jonouchi (manga)|Katsuya Jonouchi]] and [[Insector Haga (manga)|Insector Haga]] Dueled in the preliminary rounds of the [[Battle City (manga)|Battle City]] tournament.

Despite Haga fixing the Duel, by having the card "[[Parasite Paracide (manga)|Parasite Paracide]]" slipped into Jonouchi's Deck, Jonouchi managed to win.

[[File:D-107 Thief caught.jpg|thumb|left|200px|Jonouchi catches [[Haga's helper (manga)|Haga's helper]].]]
[[Insector Haga (manga)|Haga]] arranged for [[Haga's helper (manga)|a boy]] to steal [[Katsuya Jonouchi (manga)|Jonouchi]]'s [[Duel Disk]] and sneak two "[[Parasite Paracide (manga)|Parasite Paracide]]" cards into his Deck. When Jonouchi caught the boy, he lied about being a tournament Duelist, whose own Deck and Duel Disk had been stolen. Jonouchi bought the story and offered to Duel the alleged thief, so the boy left in order to fetch Haga.<ref name="d d 107">{{chapter|Yu-Gi-Oh! Duelist|107|ref}}</ref>

[[Sugoroku Mutou (manga)|Sugoroku Mutou]], who had been skeptical of the boy's story, suggested that Jonouchi check his Deck to make sure he had not stolen anything. Jonouchi felt that he was being too cynical and that people need to have more faith.<ref name="d d 107" />

The boy returned to Haga and reported that everything had gone according to plan. Instead of giving the boy a rare card, as he had promised, Haga gave him a common "[[Pillroach]]" and sprayed him in the face with bug killer when he protested.<ref name="d d 107" />

Haga advanced to face Jonouchi, hoping that defeating him would attract the attention of his friend, [[Yugi Mutou (manga)|Yugi Mutou]], whom Haga hoped to subsequently defeat in revenge for [[Duelist Kingdom (manga)|Duelist Kingdom]].<ref name="d d 107" />

Remembering what Haga did to Yugi's "[[Exodia]]" cards [[Journey to Duelist Kingdom|one the way]] to Duelist Kingdom, [[Anzu Mazaki (manga)|Anzu Mazaki]] tried to talk Jonouchi out of accepting the Duel, saying that Haga did not deserve the honor. However Jonouchi felt it was necessary for him to defeat Haga to serve karma for stealing the boy's Deck. Anzu was uncomfortable by the way Haga was laughing and warned Jonouchi that he could be up to something. Jonouchi insisted that only cowards run and that in this Duel he would be fighting for courage to give to his sister, [[Shizuka Kawai (manga)|Shizuka Kawai]].<ref name="d d 108">{{chapter|Yu-Gi-Oh! Duelist|108|ref}}</ref>

Each player wagered two [[Locator Card|Puzzle Cards]] and one rare card.<ref name="d d 108" /> Jonouchi and Haga's respective rare cards being "[[Time Wizard (manga)|Time Wizard]]" and "[[Insect Queen (manga)|Insect Queen]]".

===The Duel===
'''1st turn: Jonouchi'''

Jonouchi Summoned "[[Panther Warrior (manga)|Panther Warrior]]" and ended his turn.<ref name="d d 108" />

'''2nd turn: Haga'''

Haga [[Set]]<ref name="d d 108" /> "[[Insect Barrier (manga)|Insect Barrier]]"<ref name="d d 109">{{chapter|Yu-Gi-Oh! Duelist|109|ref}}</ref> and [[Summon]]ed "[[Skull-Mark Ladybug (manga)|Skull-Mark Ladybug]]" in [[Defense Position|Defense Mode]].<ref name="d d 108" />

'''3rd turn: Jonouchi'''

Jonouchi Summoned "[[Little-Winguard (manga)|Little Winguard]]".

"Panther Warrior" attacked and destroyed "Skull-Mark Ladybug", whose effect caused Haga to gain 500 [[LP|Life Points]] (Haga: 4000 → 4500 Life Points).<ref name="d d 108" />

'''4th turn: Haga'''

Haga Summoned "[[Pinch Hopper (manga)|Pinch Hopper]]" in Defense Mode.<ref name="d d 108" />

'''5th turn: Jonouchi'''

Jonouchi planned on [[Tribute Summon|sacrificing]] his two monsters to Summon "[[Jinzo (manga)|Jinzo]]". However in his [[Draw Phase]], he drew "[[Parasite Paracide (manga)|Parasite Paracide]]", a card the boy had slipped into his Deck.<ref name="d d 108" />

Jonouchi was forced to Summon "Parasite Paracide" due to its own effect. His monsters, "Panther Warrior" and "Little Winguard" became its hosts, causing them to become part-[[Insect]].<ref name="d d 108" />

As Jonouchi and his friends realized that Haga had gotten the boy to interfere with Jonouchi's Deck, Haga stated that a brilliant tactician starts his strategy before the battle begins.<ref name="d d 108" />

Jonouchi tried to continue with his original plan to Summon "Jinzo", but Haga explained that infected monsters cannot be sacrificed. Instead Jonouchi tried attacking with his monsters, but Haga [[activate]]d his face-down "[[Insect Barrier (manga)|Insect Barrier]]". With all his monsters treated as Insects, Jonouchi was left with no way of attacking.<ref name="d d 109" />

'''6th turn: Haga'''

Haga activated "[[Insecticide (manga)|Insecticide]]", [[destroy]]ing his own "Pinch Hopper". This activated its effect, allowing him to Summon "[[Insect Queen (manga)|Insect Queen]]" from his [[hand]]. The queen gained 400 ATK for every other Insect on the field ("Insect Queen": 2200 → 3400 ATK).<ref name="d d 109" />

"Insect Queen" attacked and destroyed "Little Winguard" (Jonouchi: 4000 → 2000 Life Points). As she destroyed a monster, she laid an egg, an "[[Insect Larva (manga)|Insect Larva]]" ("Insect Queen": 3400 → 2900 → 3400 ATK).<ref name="d d 109" />

[[File:Insect Queen lays an egg.png|thumb|left|250px|"[[Insect Queen (manga)|Insect Queen]]" lays [[Insect Larva (manga)|an egg]].]]

'''7th turn: Jonouchi'''

Since his monsters would be unable to attack and would make "Insect Queen" stronger, Jonouchi did not Summon anything and Set "[[Magical Arm Shield (manga)|Magic Arm Shield]]".<ref name="d d 109" />

As Jonouchi ended his turn, Sugoroku reminded him that he forgot to switch his current monsters to Defense Mode, but Haga said it was too late, as he had already declared the end of his turn. Jonouchi had done this on purpose, but acted as though he had made a mistake, in order to lead Haga on.<ref name="d d 109" />

'''8th turn: Haga'''

[[File:Jonouchi VS Haga - Infanticide.png|thumb|right|200px|"Insect Queen" inadvertently attacks her offspring.]]
Sugoroku calculated that if Haga attacked "Parasite Paracide" with "Insect Queen", Jonouchi would lose. Haga on the other hand, opted to attack "Panther Warrior" with "Insect Queen" and then attack the parasite with "Insect Larva", which would also result in Jonouchi losing, if successful.<ref name="d d 109" />

"Insect Queen" attacked "Panther Warrior", which Jonouchi had predicted, knowing Haga would leave his own card, the parasite until last. He explained that he had set the Trap "Magic Arm Shield" on "Panther Warrior" for that purpose and then activated it, causing "Insect Queen" to attack "Insect Larva" instead, destroying it (Haga: 4500 → 2300 Life Points, Insect Queen: 3400 → 2900 ATK).<ref name="d d 109" />

'''9th turn: Jonouchi'''

Jonouchi still had the dilemma of "Parasite Paracide" making anything he could Summon unable to attack and causing them to strengthen "Insect Queen". Haga remarked that the parasite could infect almost anything humanoid or animal, which should accommodate for the monsters in Jonouchi's Deck. Sugoroku was aware of at least one [[Warrior]] monster which could not be affected and wondered if it was in Jonouchi's Deck.<ref name="d d 110">{{chapter|Yu-Gi-Oh! Duelist|110|ref}}</ref>

Jonouchi switched his monsters to Defense Mode and ended his turn.<ref name="d d 110" />

'''10th turn: Haga'''

Haga Summoned "[[Soldier Ari (manga)|Soldier Ari]]" in Defense Mode ("Insect Queen": 2900 → 3400 ATK).<ref name="d d 110" />

"Insect Queen" attacked and destroyed "Panther Warrior" and laid another "Insect Larva" ("Insect Queen": 3400 → 2900 → 3400 ATK).<ref name="d d 110" />

'''11th turn: Jonouchi'''

[[File:Gearfried immune to the paracite.png|thumb|left|200px|"[[Gearfried the Iron Knight (manga)|Gearfried]]", immune to the parasite]]
Jonouchi drew "[[Gearfried the Iron Knight (manga)|Gearfried the Iron Knight]]" and said that he had found a weakness in Haga's Insect combo.<ref name="d d 110" />

He played "[[Graverobber (manga)|Graverobber]]" face-down and Summoned "Gearfried". "Parasite Paracide" tried to infect "Gearfried", but could not penetrate its iron. Uninfected "Gearfried" was not an Insect and therefore unaffected by "Insect Barrier".<ref name="d d 110" />

Haga's Larva were born in [[Attack Position|Attack Mode]], incapable of defending. "Insect Barrier" had been used to shield them. Having overcome the shield, Jonouchi used "Gearfried" to attack and destroy an "Insect Larva" to pick away at Haga's Life Points (Haga:  2300 → 1700 Life Points, "Insect Queen": 3400 → 2900 ATK).<ref name="d d 110" />

'''12th turn: Haga'''

[[File:Insect Queen sprayed.png|thumb|right|200px|"Insect Queen", destroyed by the stolen "[[Insecticide (manga)|Insecticide]]"]]
Haga asked if Jonouchi was prepared to pay the price for angering the queen and said that he would now show him the Deck's deadliest move, the "Queen Impact". He switched "Soldier Ari" to Attack Mode and activated "[[Multiplication of Ants (manga)|Multiplication of Ants]]", Summoning nine "[[Army Ant]]s" ("Insect Queen": 2900 → 6600 ATK).<ref name="d d 110" />

"Insect Queen" attacked "Gearfried", but Jonouchi activated "[[Graverobber (manga)|Graverobber]]", taking "[[Insecticide (manga)|Insecticide]]" from Haga's [[Graveyard]] and using it to destroy "Insect Queen".<ref name="d d 110" />

'''13th turn: Jonouchi'''

Jonouchi attacked Haga directly with "Gearfried" (Haga: 1700 → 0 Life Points).<ref name="d d 110" /><!-- Don't know what happened to Haga's other monsters -->

===Aftermath===
Haga asked how he could lose to an amateur like Jonouchi. Jonouchi replied that it is not that he is strong, but that Haga is just too weak. Per the ante, Jonouchi won "Insect Queen" and two Puzzle Cards.<ref name="d d 110" />
