Greiger managed to summon Earthbound Immortal - Chacu Challhua and hope to use it against on his duel against Crow. But the latter has more trick up his sleeve.

The Turbo Duel
The Turbo Duel between Crow and Greiger continues inside the geoglyph with Yusei as the witness. Crow thinks that Dark Flat Top is huge, but says that bigger doesn’t necessarily merans its better. Greiger reply that, unfortunely, there are no monsters like that in his deck and the effect of Dark Sea Rescue he sent to the Graveyard allow him to draw 2 cards. Then, he draws a card.

Next, he activates Dark Flat Top’s effect, in which it can Special Summon one Flying Fortress SKY FIRE from his Graveyard, once per turn. Crow is shocked by this revelation. Yusei thinks if Crow doesn’t found a way to beat Dark Flat Top now, Flying Fortress SKY Fire will be invincible. The mechanical giant returns with 3000 ATK.

Greiger also activates Flying Fortress SKY FIRE’s effect, in which once per turn, by sending one card from his hand to the Graveyard, it will destroy one card on his opponent’s field. The card he discarded is the Spell Card, Star Blast and the monster he destroyed is Blackwing Armor Master. After that, he send Flying Fortress SKY FIRE to attack Blackwing - Gale the Whirlwind directly. The mechanical giant destroyed the little bird and the impact of the attack made Crow loses control of his Duel Runner and send him to the ground. Yusei is worried for his friend. Crow’s Life Points goes to 900.

Crow’s Determination
Greiger says the match is over and that Crow couldn’t possibly continue dueling in this condition. Yusei want to help Crow, but his friend tells him to stay back and the duel isn’t over yet. Yusei and Greiger are surprised by Crow’s determination. The young man says that until he can defeat the Dark Signers, he won’t surrender. Or else, the children he took care will never find peace.

Crow managed to get his Duel Runner Black Bird started again and got back on his Duel Runner. Greiger is surprised that the young man’s Duel Runner is still functionning. Crow tells the new Dark Signer that neither he or Black Bird are ready to give up. The Turbo Duel restart.

Greiger’s Memory
Greiger thinks that if Crow intend on venting out his anger over losing his children, then they share the same wishes. During the ride, he remembers the days he spent in his village, in which it was poor and similar to Satellite and, just like Crow, he learned everything thanks to Duel Monsters and tried to pass everything down to his siblings and the children. Until the devastation that destroyed his village took away his siblings, saying that dream now will never come true.

Back to the Turbo Duel
Greiger places a card face-down and end his turn. Crow feels a little hurt, thinks that two or three of his ribs are busted and feels that that his whole body is weak. But, it was no time to be complaining.

It’s Crow’s turn and he draws a card. Both duelists’ SPC goes to 5. Crow remembers that Flying Fortress SKY FIRE has the ability to destroy monsters when they are summoned. If he summoned a monster withour a plan and take any unwarranted damage, he won’t last this time. Yusei thinks Crow is injured in that last fall. Crow decide to end his turn.

It’s Greiger’s turn and his draws a card. Both duelists’ SPC goes to 6. The new Dark Signer says to the young man that it appears that Crow have run out of options. Crow reply that they’ll see about that and that he has 2 cards face-down on his field, in which one of the 2 cards will wipe out all of Greiger’s monsters. Ghreiger is intrigued by it and Crow tells to choose carefully. Greiger thinks even if Crow is telling the truth, he still have his next move and that his victory shall not falter. While thinking about it, he’s looking at the Effect Monster card, Dark Sea Float.

He discarded the card and activates his mechanical giant’s effect and the card he’ll destroy is one of Crow’s face-down cards. The destroyed card was the Trap Card, Fake Feathers. Crow says that Greiger has guessed wrong and that if he attack him now, his monsters will get wiped out. Greiger refused to listen to Crow, thinking this is all bluff and that the young man’s field is already devoid of monsters. If Crow take a direct attack, he’ll lose this duel. He also says that Crow is doing nothing more than bluffing in desperation. The young man dare the new Dark Signer to just try him.

Greiger thinks this duel is already over and send Flying Fortress SKY FIRE to attack Crow directly. Crow says that was the moment he was waiting for. He activates the Trap Card, Blackwing - Back Flash, in which when they are five or more Blackwing in his Graveyard and when he received a direct attack, this card will destroy all monsters on his opponent’s field. Both Flying Fortress SKY FIRE and Dark Flat Top are destroyed by Blackwing - Back Flash’s effect.Greiger is shocked by this turn of events.

Crow tells Greiger that his one card just made his mightiest fleet fall. Greiger concluded that the young man was telling the truth and Crow reply that he never lied in his life and that Greiger’s doubt saved his skin.

Greiger laughs and says it’s not as though he didn’t believe him at all and that the effect of Dark Sea Float he sent to the Graveyard allows him to draw one card. He draws a card and put it face-down. He says that Crow followed right into his plan. He activates the Trap Card, The Impure Earth, in which during the turn two or more monsters with a level of five or higher are destroyed, it will Special Summon an Earthbound Immortal from his hand, deck or Graveyard. Crow cannot believe what Greiger just said and Yusei is very worried by it. The shell-like device appears and suck all the souls from the site where Greiger’s village was destroyed. After that, Earthbound Immortal - Chacu Challhua appears with 2900 ATK. Crow is impressed by the size of the Earthbound Immortal.

Yusei warn Crow to be careful. It’s Crow’s turn and he draws a card. Both duelists’ SPC goes to 7. Crow remembers that the new Dark Signer has 1800 Life Points and that right now, he can’t summon a monster to stand up to the ATK of the Earthbound Immortal. He summoned Blackwing - Foehn the Steel Chain with 500 ATK. Greiger says that a monster with 500 ATK won’t do any good against Chacu Challhua. But Crow says that the card won’t be attacking the Earthbound Immortal, but Greiger, because this monster can attack the opponent player directly. The ninja birdman attack the new Dark Signer directly and Greiger’s Life Points goes to 1300. Greiger says that by doing that, Crow will be attacked by Chacu Challhua, crushing him to bits. Crow reply that they’ll see.

Something strange is happening to Chacu Challhua, which make Greiger wonders what is happening. Crow explain that when Foehn sucessfully attacks directly, it switches an Attack Position monster into Defense Position and prevents it from changing its battle position until next turn. Chacu Challhua goes into Defense Position with 1600 DEF. Croiw says that no matter how powerful the monster is, it’s no big deal if it can’t attack. Yusei is impressed by Crow’s move. Crow places a card face-down and end his turn.

It’s Greiger’s turn and he draws a card. Both duelists’ SPC goes to 8. He tells Crow that he made a big misconception and that an Earthbound Immortal leaves no dark corners. He activates Chacu Challhua’s effect. In which when this card doesn’t attack, it can inflict damage equal to half its DEF to the opponent player. The effect nearly made Crow lose control of his Duel Runner and Crow’s Life Points goes to 100. Next, Greiger summon Dark Sea Rescue with 0 ATK and activatres the Continuous Trap Card, Basara, in which once per turn, release one monster on his field, destroying a monster on the field with a level higher than that monster. Plus, the controller of the destroyed monster receives 800 points of damage. He sacrifices Dark Sea Rescue to destroyed Blackwing - Foehn the Steel Chain. Yusei fears that if Crow receives that damage, he will lose.
