Synopsis
Yūya arrives at the Duel Palace, where Jack is waiting, and shows his resolve to Jack. The final match of the Friendship Cup, Yūya vs Jack, is then carried out at the Duel Palace. Roger then sends his Security troops to the Duel Palace, and the Commons follow them. While the citizens of the City watch on, Jack and Yūya begin the Duel that they believe in!

Yūya Sakaki vs. Jack Atlas
At the start of the Duel, the Field Magic Card "Cross Over Accel" is activated, as per the rules of an Action Duel and a Riding Duel. It will allow the players to use Action Cards, but they may only have one in their hand at a time.

Turn 1: Jack

Jack Normal Summons "Red Sprinter". As there are no other monsters on the field, Jack activates its effect, letting him Special Summon a Level 3 or lower Tuner monster from his hand. He Special Summons "Red Resonator" in Attack Position. Jack tunes the Level 4 "Red Sprinter" with the Level 2 Tuner monster "Red Resonator" to Synchro Summon "Red Wyvern" in Attack Position. Jack Sets two cards.

Turn 2: Yūya

Yūya activates "Entermate Rubber Mutton" and "Entermate Bubbulldog" in his Pendulum Zones. Yūya Pendulum Summons "Timebreaker Magician" from his hand in Attack Position. As "Timebreaker Magician" was the only monster that was Pendulum Summoned, Yūya activates its effect, doubling its current ATK (1400 → 2800). Yūya Special Summons "Entermate Radish Horse" in Attack Position due to its effect. Yūya's hand contains "Antithesis Magician" and "Smile World". Yūya activates "Smile World", increasing the ATK of all monsters on the field by 100 for each monster currently on the field, until the end of the turn. "Red Wyvern" 2400 → 2700, "Timebreaker" 2800 → 3100, "Radish Horse" 500 → 800). "Timebreaker" attacks "Red Wyvern", but Jack activates his face-down "King's Synchro" as an opponent's monster attacked a Synchro Monster he controls. The attack is negated and Jack can use that Synchro Monster and a Tuner monster in his Graveyard for a Synchro Summon by banishing them. Jack tunes the Level 6 "Red Wyvern" with the Level 2 Tuner monster "Red Resonator" to Synchro Summon Red Daemon's Dragon Scarlight" in Attack Position. Five Duel Chasers join the Duel at this point, each of them controlling three copies of "Goyo Emperor" in Attack Position.

Turn 3: Duel Chasers

"Goyo Emperor" attacks "Radish Horse", but Yūya finds and activates the Action Card "Evasion", negating the attack. A second "Goyo Emperor" attacks "Radish Horse", but Jack activates his face-down "Connect Red" as he controls a "Red" monster and an attack was negated during this Battle Phase. The Battle Phase ends and all monsters his opponents control lose 500 ATK (Every "Goyo Emperor" 3300 → 2800, "Radish Horse" 500 → 0, "Timebreaker" 2800 → 2300).

Turn 4: Jack

Jack activates the effect of "Scarlight", letting him destroy all other Special Summoned monsters on the field with ATK less than or equal to its own and inflict damage to his opponents equal to the number of destroyed monsters times 500.

Duel continues in the next episode.
