Changes

Afterward, while thinking about the duels he witnessed, Yuma carelessly runs into the "Cementery Bomb" trap reducing his lifepoints to 100. Finally after to the "[[Dangerous Canyon]]" field, Yuma began his duel against [[Gauche]]. Wanting a fair fight against Yuma, Gauche activates the trap, "[[Heroic Gift]]", that restores his life points back to 4000. However, still shaken up from seeing the other duels, Yuma plays a more defensive strategy, which disappoints Gauche. [[Astral]] tells win he can't win the way he's playing now and that Yuma is afraid, but Yuma rebuff him and continue playing his way. After Gauche told Yuma must come at him with his true Dueling, Yuma realized he must bet everything on this Duel. Returning to offensive style, Yuma began to Duel up to Gauche's expectations. Midway through the Duel, racks of the Duel Coaster abruptly end and they flung onto the ground below, and the field switched to "[[Battleground of the Setting Sun]]". Accepting Gauche's wish to finish the battle using their respective [[signature card|ace monster]]s,Yuma Summon "[[Number 39: Utopia]]" through the effect of Gauche's "[[Xyz Hot Blooded Battle!!]]". Using his "[[Double or Nothing!]]" combo, Yuma increased the ATK of "Utopia" and defeated "[[Heroic Champion - Excalibur]]", thus winning him the Duel. Yuma and Gauche exchanges worldwords, with the latter giving him "Excalibur" and wish Yuma luck in the finals.<ref name="ep59">{{episode|Yu-Gi-Oh! ZEXAL|59|ref}}</ref>
