Yu-Gi-Oh! - Episode 016

Episode Summary
The episode starts with Maximillion Pegasus in his executive office talking to The Big Five about their deal to take over KaibaCorp. Seto Kaiba, meanwhile, is flying to Duelist Kingdom in his helicopter to save Mokuba. Yugi and Bakura notice that Bakura's Millennium Ring can point to the direction of other Millennium Items and that is has been honing in on Pegasus' Millennium Eye. Everyone is deep asleep, except for Yugi, who is thinking about what lies ahead of him. Just then, Seto's helicopter arrives and wakes everyone up. Seto steps off and Yugi gives him back his Deck. He goes to leave, but Yugi asks to join him since they are both headed towards Pegasus' Castle. Words are exchanged between them that make Joey very angry about Seto's attitude. He grabs Seto and challenges him, but Seto knocks him to the ground. When Joey gets up, the two insult each other to the point where they face off in a Duel using Seto's new Duel Disk system. Joey is repeatedly pounded by Seto's Rabid Horseman until he Summons Red-Eyes B. Dragon to destroy it. However, Seto Summons Blue-Eyes White Dragon, destroying Red-Eyes and winning the Duel. He then explains to the group about Pegasus' mysterious powers. Sometime ago at the Intercontinental Tournament in New York City, Seto was one of Pegasus' guests of honor. In the final round, Pegasus was dueling a man named Bandit Keith. Pegasus just played with Keith, then wrote something on a piece of paper and called a kid from the audience. Keith protested that asking for help is illegal. However, Pegasus says he doesn't need help. A child could beat him and he will prove it. He tells the kid to follow the instructions and he'll win. Keith Summons Garnecia Elefantis. The kid follows the instructions and Summons Flying Elephant in Attack Position, which for some unknown reason, defeats Keith. Seto is clearly surprised by this. Yugi says something like this happened to him when he first faced Pegasus. Yugi and Seto may not agree on most things, but they both know that Pegasus must be stopped. Seto leaves the group and heads for the Castle, unaware that Pegasus is watching him with his Millennium Eye.
