While his true intentions were unclear to the Spirits, Zeman used the Minus Curse to take prisoners, who became trapped in stone tablets, resembling ''[[Duel Monsters]]'' cards, but with their [[Level]]s [[Negative Level|"minused"]]. He managed to take [[Ancient Fairy Dragon (character)|Ancient Fairy Dragon]], but was unable to completely minus her. He tried taking more prisoners in the hopes that this would allow him to minus her.

While true intentions were unclear to the Spirits, Zeman used the Minus Curse to take prisoners, who became trapped in stone slabs, resembling [[Duel Monsters]] cards, but with their [[level]]s [[Negative Level|"minused"]]. He managed to take "Ancient Fairy Dragon", but was unable to completely minus her. He tried taking more prisoners in the hopes that this would allow him to minus her.
 
 
[[Luna]], [[Torunka]] and [[Regulus (character)|Regulus]] infiltrated Zeman's castle under the disguise of a mage and her servant, who have captured Regulus. They make Zeman believe that the only way to minus Ancient Fairy completely is to release it first and then place the Curse on both her and Regulus. Zeman falls for the trick and frees Ancient Fairy Dragon.
 
 
 
After he realizes he has been tricked, Zeman orders his minions to capture Luna, Torunka and Regulus. During the chase, Regulus manages to attack and defeat Zeman, but not before he passes the control of the Minus Curse on to his true master: the [[Dark Signers|Dark Signer]] [[Devack]].

==Trivia==
 
* This character is probably based on [[wikipedia:Sun Wukong|Sun Wukong]] from the novel [[wikipedia:Journey to the West|Journey to the West]].
 
** Wukong's nickname is Monkey King, and he also wears a golden circlet which is similar to Zeman's one.
 
** Zeman's weapon is Cursed Needle/Minus Staff, it is probably based on the weapon of Wukong, [[wikipedia:Ruyi Jingu Bang|Ruyi Jingu Bang]]. This weapon is a magical staff that can be shrunk down to the size of a needle.
 
** Zeman uses a Deck titled "Apes of the Mountain". In the novel, Wukong and his monkey minions live in the [[wikipedia:Mount Huaguo|Flowers and Fruit Mountain]].
 
** In 5D anime, Luna and Torunka are riding a white Regulus to go to Zeman's castle. This is probably a reference to [[wikipedia:Tang Sanzang|Tang Sanzang]], who is riding a white horse when he meets Sun Wukong for the first time. Also, Torunka is the spirit of [[Dark Sage]], but after being affected by the Minus Curse, he appears as a child, while Tang Sanzang is actually a reincarnation of Golden Cicada, a disciple of the Buddha.
