Episode 86

"Unyielding Resolve" (怯まぬ決意  Hirumanu Ketsui) is the eighty-sixth episode of the Yu-Gi-Oh! ARC-V anime.

Synopsis
As Serena is on her way to the underground labor facility, a group of Security attacks her and forcibly restrains her. Reira then appears, equipped with a Duel Disk, in order to rescue Serena from her predicament.

Reira Akaba vs. Security
At the start, two Security members control one copy of "Goyo Catapult" (CG Star 6/800/2800) and all three have 4000 LP each. Reira joins the Duel at this point, taking the 2000 LP intrusion penalty (Reira: 4000 → 2000 LP).

 Turn 4: Reira 

Reira Normal Summons "Film Magician" (CG Star 1/0/0).

 Turn 5: Security #1 

Security #1 Normal Summons "Jutte Lord" (CG Star 4/1600/1200). As it was Normal or Special Summoned, its effect activates, letting him Special Summon a "Jutte" monster from his hand. He Special Summons "Jutte Knight" (CG Star 2/700/900). Security #1 tunes the Level 4 "Jutte Lord" with the Level 2 Tuner monster "Jutte Knight" to Synchro Summon "Goyo Catapult" (CG Star 6/800/2800) in Attack Position. He then activates its effect, letting him send a monster from his hand to the Graveyard to inflict 600 damage once per turn. He sends "Sasumata Gardna" (Reira: 2000 → 1400 LP).

 Turn 6: Security #2 

Security #2 activates the effect of his own "Goyo Catapult", sending the "Sasumata Gardna" in his hand to the Graveyard to inflict 600 damage (Reira: 1400 → 800 LP).

 Turn 7: Security #3 

Security #2 activates the effect of his own "Goyo Catapult", sending the "Hell Security" in his hand to the Graveyard to inflict 600 damage (Reira: 800 → 200 LP).

 Turn 8: Reira 

Reira draws "CC One-Eyed Past Eye" He activates "Past Loop of Nightmare", which lets him Release a monster once per turn. He Releases "Film Magician". Reira's hand contains "Montage Fusion", "Past Tuning", "Past Overlay", and "Fusion Cancel". Reira Normal Summons "CC One-Eyed Past Eye" (CG Star 3/1400/1000). He then activates the Continuous Magic Card "Montage Fusion", allowing him to Fusion Summon a Fusion Monster from his Extra Deck as long as both him and his opponent control the required Fusion Material Monsters by using only his monster as a Material. Since Security #1 controls an EARTH monster, he fuses his "CC One-Eyed Past Eye" to Fusion Summon "CCC Rock Sword the Embodiment of Valiant Fused Arms" (CG Star 6/2400/???) in Attack Position. "Rock Sword" attacks and destroys Security #1's "Goyo Catapult", with its effect increasing its ATK by the ATK of all other EARTH monsters on the field ("Rock Sword" 2400 → 4800; Security #1: 4000 → 0 LP). As he Released a monster with "Past Loop of Nightmare" this turn, Reira activates its other effect, letting him Release a monster that was Fusion, Synchro or Xyz Summoned using ""CC One-Eyed Past Eye" as a Material and to Special Summon "One-Eyed" from his Graveyard. He Releases "Rock Sword" to Special Summon "One-Eyed" (CG Star 3/1400/1000). As he controls "One-Eyed", Reira activates the Quick-Play Magic Card, "Past Tuning", letting him change the Level of an opponent's monster, depending on what its current Level is. He targets Security #2's "Goyo Defender", whose Level is 6, so it is changed to 3. Then, he may treat "Past Tuning" as a monster with the same Type, Attribute, Level, ATK, and DEF as the targeted monster and treat "One-Eyed" as a Tuner monster with its effects negated. Finally, he may Synchro Summon a monster using "One-Eyed" and "Past Tuning" as the Materials, but the Summoned monster will be destroyed during the End Phase. He tunes the Level 3 "Past Tuning" with the Level 3 "One-Eyed" to Synchro Summon "CCC Rock Shooter the Embodiment of Tuned Attacks" (CG Star 6/2200/???) in Attack Position. He activates the effect of "Rock Shooter", letting him decrease an opponent's monster's ATK by 1000 once per turn(Security #2's "Goyo Catapult" 800 → 0). "Rock Shooter" attacks and destroys Security 2's "Goyo Catapult", with its effect increasing its ATK equal to the total Levels of all EARTH monsters currently on the field x 200, except itself ("Rock Shooter" 2200 → 4000, Security #2: 4000 → 0 LP). Reira Releases "Rock Shooter" using the effect of "Past Loop of Nightmare", Special Summoning "One-Eyed" (CG Star 3/1400/1000) from his Graveyard. As he controls "One-Eyed", he activates the Quick-Play Magic Card "Past Overlay", letting him change an opponent's monster Level depending on its current Level. He targets the Level 6 "Goyo Defender", changing it to Level 6. Then, he may treat "Past Overlay" and "One-Eyed" as monsters with the same Type, Level, Attribute, ATK and DEF as the target with their effects negated. Finally, he may Xyz Summon a monster using "One-Eyed" as "Past Overlay" as the Materials, but the Summoned monster will be destroyed during the End Phase. Reira overlays his two Level 6 monsters to Xyz Summon "CCC Rock Armor the Embodiment of Heavy Armor" (Rank Star 6/2500/2000/2 ORU) in Attack Position. He activates the effect of "Rock Armor", detaching an Overlay Unit to increase the ATK of "Rock Armor" by half of the combined DEF of all EARTH monsters on the field "Rock Armor": 2500 → 4900). "Rock Armor" attacks and destroys "Goyo Defender" (Security #3: 4000 → 0 LP).
