Yu-Gi-Oh! ZEXAL - Episode 058

"Shark Reawakens! A New Chaos Number Appears" is the fifty-eighth episode of the Yu-Gi-Oh! ZEXAL anime. It first aired in Japan on June 4, 2012.

Featured Duel: Shark vs. IV
Duel continues from the previous episode.

Turn 5: Shark

Shark activates the "Different Dimension Trench" Continuous Spell Card, banishing the WATER-Attribute "Number 32: Shark Drake". It will return when "Different Dimension Trench" is destroyed. Shark Sets a monster.

Turn 6: IV

IV draws "Gimmick Puppet - Scissor Arm". He attacks the Set monster with "Number 40: Gimmick Puppet Heaven's String", while activating the effect of the equipped "Destiny Strings". He reveals the top card of his Deck and sends it to the Graveyard. The card is not shown, but it is not a monster, so his own attack is negated and his Battle Phase ends. He Normal Summons "Scissor Arm" (1200/600). He activates its effect, destroying an Equip Card he controls to double its Level. He destroys "Destiny Strings" and the Level of "Scissor Arm" is doubled to 8. He Tributes "Heaven's String" to Special Summon "Gimmick Puppet - Nightmare" (1000/2000) from his hand in Attack Position via its own effect. As it was an Xyz Monster that was Tributed for its Summon, it can be treated as two Overlay Units for an Xyz Summon. IV overlays his three Level 8 monsters to Xyz Summon "Number 88: Gimmick Puppet - Destiny Leo" (3200/???) in Attack Position. IV activates the effect of "Destiny Leo", detaching an Overlay Unit. Should the card have no Overlay Units, he will automatically win the Duel.

Turn 7: Shark

Shark Flip Summons "Deep Sweeper" (1600/???). He Tributes it with its own effect to destroy a face-up Continuous Spell Card. He destroys "Different Dimension Trench", so "Shark Drake" returns to the field in Attack Position (2800/2100). Shark performs a Chaos Xyz Evolution, overlaying "Shark Drake" to Xyz Summon "Number C32: Shark Drake Vice" (2800/2100) in Attack Position. Shark activates the effect of "Shark Drake Vice", detaching an Overlay Unit to banish a "Shark" monster from his Graveyard. "Destiny Leo" will lose ATK equal to that of the banished monster. He banishes "Submersible Carrier Aero Shark", so "Destiny Leo" loses 1900 ATK (3200 → 1300). "Shark Drake" attacks and destroys "Destiny Leo" (IV 1500 → 0).
