Yuya and the other captured duelists are taken to a detention facility. Celina is taken elsewhere, while the others are put in a cell. They are reunited with Gong's group and learn about the harshness of prison life. Inmates use duel cards as currency to get preferential treatment. The prison's boss, Chojiro Tokumatsu, starts demanding Yuya and his friends' cards in exchange for giving them a luxury life in the facility. Yuya strongly objects to his demand. The clashing of their beliefs urges Chojiro to challenge Yuya to a duel. Chojiro brings out his Synchro Monster, Flower Cardian Lightshower, which deals damage to Yuya anytime he draws and activates a trap that blocks off Yuya's ability to Pendulum Summon.
