Rachel already probably know by know what’s going to happen next. She already probably know that the next room to the final planetary gear is going to be the same one. But it wasn’t to be expected to see a change in scenery. Question was, what will happen if the last room is shut down? What will happen next? Hopefully they’ll just magically get out the Ark Cradle and end this crazy thing.
Was this really worth it all for the people of Neo Domino City? Yusei didn’t know yet but humans were greedy and corrupted. He doesn’t know this nor think of it yet. But is it really worth saving everyone? He was too kind of a person. Saving everyone and sending the evil forces back. That’s Yusei for you. He’s a legend in the future but will later discover this when they talk to Z-one.
For now they arrive in the room. The place is same as always. The place filled with the same surge of energy, the same scenery, and later Yusei will have to face someone. It wasn’t all the easy to just head in the room and shut down the planetary gear, no, it wasn’t that easy at all. It was to be expected that someone would try and stop them.
Came out from was Vizor. The duelist was happy to see him. Did he shut down the planetary gear yet? No? Then why is he here? He removed his glasses. Behind those shade was a person Yusei knew and loved like he was his own brother. It was Bruno. What was he doing here? He was Vizor all along? So many question to be answered.
“B-Bruno! You’re Vizor?!”
He didn’t say a word yet. He only raised up his duel disk and showing that this planetary gear won’t shut down unless Yusei or someone beat Vizor, no Bruno in a duel. But Yusei couldn’t do that. Bruno was like a brother to him. A fellow mechanic. Why would he do something like this? Do they have to really settle things with a duel?
“Bruno…why?”
Still, he didn’t say a word. Bruno got on his duel runner and was ready for a riding duel. Yusei knew his intention. If it’s a riding duel he want then a riding duel he’ll get. Yusei did the same. He put on his helmet and get ready to duel Bruno. He was ignoring the purple head scientist because he knew Bruno and treat him as if he was better. But he wasn’t the one to play favorite.
When they start to ride, something happened. The scenery of the planetary room was changed. They was like in this outer space place. Behind both the turbo duelist was something dark, it was a black hole. They all was in a outer space place, even Rachel. She was watching from the side line like the last time. She was floating off the riding duel’s road.
This duel was as simple as that. If the person was to lose, they end up in the black hole behind them. Each damage bring the person closer and closer to the black hole. But Yusei didn’t want this. It means that if Yusei win, he’s going to lose Bruno, forever. But if Yusei was going to lose, he’s going to be gone forever. Like Sherry said, Yusei was going to die here in the Ark Cradle.
If the duelist did end up gone, who will continue the operation? Rachel was no fighter nor duelist. She’s going to lose easily and can’t do anything but wait till she die along with Neo Domino City. But Yusei’s going to win. Bruno would wanted him to win. But sadly, he’s not going to lose easily nor give up the match to Yusei. It was about to begin, another duel. Riding duel, accelerate!
There are many problems involved with time travel and dimensional shifting. The whole structure of reality is like a river, its flow dividing infinitely from its starting point to the various possible ends that it can have, therefore making it particularly hard to pinpoint the exact place and moment that one wants to reach. There are so many conflicting variables, such an absurd amount of possibilities to fail and get lost in the middle of nowhere, that it’s no wonder that world-jumping is a less likely occurrence to happen than most other phenomena. That, however, is just of secondary importance to Rachel, whose expertise is entirely devoted to such a convoluted field of studies.
The problems for her start once she has already plunged herself deep into a situation after having selected her destination. As intruders from a completely different place, people like her end up being involved with all sorts of events that more often than not they will have absolutely no knowledge of prior to their arrival. Relationships, wars, technologic level, social structure: from a macrosopic to a microsopic perspective, they are no better than babies in a vast majority of the cases. Holographic duels between monsters printed on cards, sent into the battlefield by persons riding in motorcycles and sporting hairdos that defy all logic weren’t even the worst of it, oddly enough.
Simply said, she had no idea of who this Vizor, or Bruno, or whatever other monicker he had, was, nor about his relationship with Yuusei or with all of this. She lacked knowledge about the reasons of all these people, for that matter: what use was there exactly to crashing a whole structure, whose purpose she wasn’t even sure about, on a city from the past? If she had to guess, Rachel would have said that this was the most ludicrous experiment about time paradoxes she had ever laid her eyes upon. Or maybe, it was some kind of messed up way to pass time in whatever the future of this timeline enticed: just casually destroying their past as a hobby, you know. There are enough factors of conflicting mindsets when travelling in other dimensions that you stop caring pretty soon about the implications of what you would perceive as ‘crazy-ass madness’.
Imagine then how much involvement she had with this whole mess. There she was, clinging to her life - or rather, Yuusei’s stomach, who was closely related to keeping her life intact either way - and suddenly she was floating in empty space, watching as two guys battled with motorcycles that could presumably run on black matter, lacking any kind of road. Oh, and the giant swirling mess of suck-o-matic in the middle of it all.
Par of the course, basically.
“Are you kidding me.”
It had to be said in favor of it all, however, that at the very least Rachel could now have a moment’s respite from having her ears hammered from the sound of an engine pounding against her whole body. All in all, this was an improvement, if she kept in mind that this whole battlefield was just an illusion. Because there was no way that, amidst this chaos, she suddenly could breathe with a lack of an atmosphere or a planet or anything which wouldn’t have destroyed her normally.
“Yuusei, be sure to kick his bottom too!” she shouted, wondering if sound would be carried, before realizing that she could still hear the motorcycles running. Then again, he wouldn’t have heard it anyway because of said engines plus the helmet, but trying wouldn’t hurt. Cheering was a common practice to improve the morale in conflicts, from what her social studies told her, so she might as well tried that much. It wasn’t as if she could deactivate a black hole which may or may have not existed in the first place.
Hopefully, Yuusei wouldn’t get the both of them offed while she was sitting across nothingness with her arms crossed and musing about the meaning of cheering.
The two turbo duelist engage in a Turbo Duel and the setting suddenly changes to outer space with the two of them racing along a white path. The opponent says that this is a very fitting scene for his final time facing the protagonist. He explains that this is a Death Course. The two of them are racing near a star, which the loser will be sucked into upon losing and neither of them will be able to leave until that happens.
The two turbo duelist race along the track for a while, dodging flames that leap by them. Antiomy says that the loser shall be swallowed by the flames and the only means of escape is to win the Duel.
The two turbo duelist race along the track for a while, dodging flames that leap by them. Antiomy says that the loser shall be swallowed by the flames and the only means of escape is to win the Duel.
Waves of flames splash over the track and the protagonist barely manages to avoid being hit. Antinomy calls back to Yusei and says that if something this small is enough to throw him off, he will be swallowed by the flames before they finish the Duel.
Yusei’s turn begins, but he does nothing. Antinomy asks why he is hesitating and recalls how the turbo duelist had said he was going to defeat any enemy standing in his way, regardless of who they are. Yusei suggests that the same may not apply if they are his friend. Annoyed, Antinomy reminds Yusei that if he doesn’t defeat him, he won’t be able to advance any further than this and won’t be able to save his friends. Yusei starts to worry. He rides up beside his opponent, who says that Yusei is incapable of leaving his feelings of a former friend out of it and that is both his greatest strength and weakness. He slams Delta Eagle against Yusei Go and demands that the turbo duelist show him his dueling.
Antinomy tells Yusei to watch closely as he performs a true “Clear Mind”. Yusei asks why Antinomy taught him how to Accel Synchro Summon. Antinomy explains that had he not, Yusei and Team 5D’s would not have been able to win the World Racing Grand Prix and it was that power, which helped them bring out the Ark Cradle in their battle with Aporia.
Antinomy states that Yusei’s heart is in disarray and in his current condition he has no hope of defeating Z-one, let alone defeating him. Yusei asks just who Z-one is, to which Antinomy replies that he is someone who will change the future of ruin. Antinomy calms down and tells Yusei about he met Z-one.
Antinomy says that soon afterwards all of Z-one’s friends died and just like the others, Z-one resurrected Antinomy as his servant to change the future. Yusei, who has not been told that Z-one looked like him, begins to ask something about Z-one. Before he can finish his question, Antinomy says that it is correct, Z-one is the lone survivor of mankind. Yusei thinks that that can’t be.
Antinomy explains that Aporia was split into three embodiments of despair and was resurrected as three separate personalities, as the controllers of Yliaster. Antinomy was given the mission to protect Yusei and aid in his growth. He admits to not thinking Yusei would progress this far and didn’t think that he himself would be the one to crush Yusei.
The turbo duelist asks if Antinomy considers him to be no more than a gear in his plans. Antinomy says that the Ark Cradle has surfaced and New Domino City is as good as confirmed, so the creation of a new future is all but assured. However the completion of that plan allows no room for Yusei to advance any further.
The mechanic demands that Antinomy not talk like that and points out that it wasn’t just him Antinomy deceived, but every one in Team 5D’s. He asks if Antinomy honestly sees hope in this future he is trying to create by sacrificing this world. He demands that Antinomy answer. Antinomy says that similar to how team 5D’s are connected by a strong bond, he Z-one and his friends have formed a strong bond within the pit of despair and his very mission is his pledge to Z-one.
The protagonist asks if that is what Antinomy really wants to do and calls him Bruno. He replies that his name is Antinomy, and Yusei vows to defeat him for the sake of the future and his friends.
Antinomy guesses Yusei has now gotten serious and Yusei vows to fight Antinomy past his limits. Antinomy says that while Yusei may have surpassed his own limits, he has only began to barely scratch the surface of the current situation, because as he regrets the limitations Yusei believes himself to have surpassed are not his true limitations. Yusei asks what he means by that and Antinomy replies that Accel Synchro Summons are meant as nothing more than an exhibit; A mere display of what lies beyond it. He says that he shall show Yusei and this is what lies far ahead and beyond of the surreal world of Yusei’s.
Yusei is surprised that Antinomy returned his Accel Synchro Monster to his Extra Deck, but Antinomy explains that this is the answer to what lies beyond Accel Synchro Summoning. Antinomy speeds up and Yusei asks what he’s about to do.
“The state of supremacy beyond the limits of your own being, Top Clear Mind”.
He enters a digital tunnel and tells Yusei to watch carefully.
“Limiter removal, Level max. Regulator, open. All clear! Infinite power. Piercing through time and space, open to a world unknown. Go! Delta Accel!”
This causes the star they are riding next to to condenses, explodes and turns into a black hole. Antinomy finishes his chant
“Come on, Tech Genus Halberd Cannon” as he Delta Accel Synchro Summons ”Tech Genus Halberd Cannon”
The turbo duelist observes the current state of the star and asks “What is…?” Antinomy asks if Yusei just saw that, a Synchro Summon using three Synchro Monsters. He says that this is a Synchro surpassing Accel Synchro and it is called Delta Accel Synchro.

“I find it hard that I could either be Jaden or you with this appearance.”
((Get your gay on!))
” People would just blame Jaden, many don’t know I exist.”
(Dimitri: ” I’m proud of you”)
“It’s like two side of the same coin. But yes, I think they’ll think it’s Jaden mostly. But what I should do about this situation? Probably should lay low till all this blows over.”
((No you, stop it!))
“I feel the same with Haou looking like me. Just make sure you’re able to take care of yourself looking like Aki.”
“Hey, what’s that supposed to mean!”
“Never mind. It’s nothing. I’m just looking out for my friends is all. You’ve gotten yourself in a lot of trouble in your time, right? Even trouble in school I bet.”

“Head trauma? I don’t think that’s good. But don’t you go doing things with my appearance.”
” I’m not a prankster, I have no intention on just go doing things with your appearance.”
(Maybe getting away with murder?)
“I find it hard that I could either be Jaden or you with this appearance.”
((Get your gay on!))
“It could be. But we can’t change what has already happen. We’ll have to wait until things are back or normal again.”
Nothing is normal around here.
She nodded, “I know, it’s just weird too see…well me on you…”
“I feel the same with Haou looking like me. Just make sure you’re able to take care of yourself looking like Aki.”

“Looks like it. But I say this might be an experience for me to understand what Jaden is going through.”
” If you want to understand Jaden you should try blunt force trauma in the head.”
(…Since when you got this sassy, Haou?)
“Head trauma? I don’t think that’s good. But don’t you go doing things with my appearance.”
