Follow the glow of the bond and gather before me again!
Legion Mate!
The bond with my mates can never be severed!
This is Soulmate Legion!
Soulmate Legion...
My loss, Kai.
Kai, you've changed a little.
I might have.
Aichi and my mates have changed me.
Kai, I have a promise of my own that I need to keep.
So I can't talk to you in detail about him.
However...
...I'll tell you just one thing.
You should try to go there.
Cardfight Club
All right.
Ishida, what are you doing?
Everyone's waiting downstairs.
Cardfight Club
That's...
The Cardfight Club Aichi formed.
D-Darn it!
That makes a total of more wins than losses for me.
Honestly, you're not strong enough to be the co-captain.
Just give up the post of co-captain to me.
I beat you twice last month!
I'm talking about the total.
Monthly tallies aren't global.
Those two are at it again.
Yep. But they look like they're having a good time.
Fight, you two!
Uh, I don't think that's right...
What's the point of egging them on to argue, Aichi?
Oh, yeah.
If this ain't here when Aichi gets back, he'll be disappointed, right?
Yeah.
The delinquent from last time!
And the boss lady!
Yo, Shingo.
Could you keep an eye on that, and see it doesn't come off?
We're goin' off to get our place back.
What's he talking about?
That punk wannabe...
"Cardfight Club"...
You're late!
Sorry.
Let's go!
Yeah!
The Place Where Aichi Will Return
Nice scenery!
Dummy. We're not here for sightseeing.
The air is so fresh!
So? Got our route?
Yeah.
We cross this bridge and turn right...
Um... We're not gonna use a bus or car?
You can if you want.
We're young, so it's a piece of cake!
We're young!
It's a mountain hike! Let's use transportation at least part of the way up!
Hey, Kai!
Look! There's a cable car!
Humans use tools!
Convenience is... Darn it.
It should be around here.
There!
There?!
So it seems.
Apparently, Ren leaked the information.
That's fine. It means I can exercise my skills.
Too bad.
What?
He already left.
Gaillard...
Yeah, this is it. We're in the right place.
But what is it?
Ren pointed this place out.
Which means there's a clue here.
To me, it just looks like people from long ago haphazardly arranged a bunch of rocks.
No. Several of the rocks on the ground have a different form.
Is this a Vanguard circle?
Who's he?!
Olivier Gaillard!
So you did come, Toshiki Kai.
Even after I warned you.
I told you to forget everything.
Sorry about that.
We don't know the meanin' of "givin' up"!
I'm Naoki Ishida, the co-captain of Miyaji Academy's Cardfight Club!
And I'm gonna kick your butt!
Ishida! I mean, co-captain...
Wait, Ishida. I'll...
No. I ain't handin' this one off.
I owe him one.
Kai, please!
I came here after swearin'
I'd take back the Cardfight Club... ...the place Aichi will return to!
Let me do this!
But...
Kai.
Please let Naoki take this one.
I'll fight either one of you.
I won't let anyone get near Aichi.
Naoki Ishida...
What color are your flames?
Holy blue flames that flicker for eternity, blaze forth and burn down everything!
Holy Prominence Prison!
This is his prison?
Blue flames...
That's right.
That's why they call me Blue Flames Gaillard.
Bring it on!
You fired me up, but I'm gonna make you regret it!
Flames get bigger by feeding on flames.
Become the prey of my flames!
Stand up...
...le Vanguard!
...Vanguard!
"Le"?
It's French.
French? That jerk! Tryin' to sound cool!
Brawler, Fighting Dracokid!
Genius Liberator, Ultimel!
Gold Paladin?!
I heard that, but he really uses the same clan as Aichi?
Yeah. He said something about it.
That he'd inherited Aichi's will.
Brother's...?!
Ride!
Menacing Brawler, Koumei!
Aichi's will? Don't give me that nonsense!
Whether it's nonsense or not, you can confirm it with your own eyes.
Ride! And call!
Attack!
Go, Polius!
No guard!
Suddenly 4 damage!
Is Ishida okay?
Ishida... Or Mr. Ishida to you...
He hasn't lost any of his enthusiasm.
R-Right...
Big Bang Slash Dragon!
Call!
Attack!
I ride Unbending Liberator, Kaletix!
Call!
His deck...
Is there something with the deck?
It's different from when I fought him.
He was using Aichi's deck then.
Then what's he using now?
If it was Aichi's own deck, then...
Attack!
What's wrong?
Are my serious blue flames too hot for you?
If you think I'm givin' up so easily, you got another thing comin'!
My turn! The strongest dragon!
Send evil guys flyin' with your dragon god fists!
Ride!
Brawler, Big Bang Knuckle Dragon!
Call!
Attack!
Eat this! Big Bang Knuckle Dragon!
Yeah!
Twin drive...
I got a heal trigger!
Skybeat Dragon!
Guard!
Darn it! 1 damage?
Looks like it's the end of the line.
Shut up! Don't act all confident!
'Cause I'm definitely gonna take Aichi back from you guys!
It seems you still don't realize the difference between my power and yours.
When I look at this, I think you won't be able to touch Aichi.
Stand, my avatar!
What?!
I ride Bluish Flame Liberator, Percival!
Call!
Percival attacks!
You will forget everything about Aichi!
Disappear, small light.
Quit flappin' your gums!
Blue Flame!
Guard!
Phallon!
Ishida!
I'll be darned if I lose!
The place for Aichi to come home to is waitin'!
What's wrong, President?
Cardfight Club
Suwabe, what is this?
That's some messy handwriting.
"Cardfight Club"?
It rings a bell for some reason...
Yes, it does, doesn't it?
But when it comes to unofficial clubs, the Student Council...
...has a responsibility to take it down.
D-Don't take it down!
Who are you?
Do you know something about this Cardfight Club?
The usually shy Aichi worked as hard as he could to form it, all on his own...
Then I joined... and Misaki... Shingo...
...and Kourin.
Aichi made that precious place!
I don't really understand.
But I feel like this is a really important place!
So, please! Don't take this paper down!
That's where Aichi should go home to!
Seek mate!
I'm comin' for you, Aichi!
You're gonna come home to our Cardfight Club!
Legion!
Legion skill activated!
Especial Counterblast!
And then Soulblast!
Aichi...
Aichi!
Go flyin'!
Legion mach attack!
Twin drive...
All of the front row units are attacking?!
I ain't done!
This ain't enough to satisfy my fists!
Koumei's skill!
One more time!
And now you got nothin'!
That's the way, Ishida!
Just 1 more damage!
The finishing blow! Skybeat Dragon!
Guard!
You don't know when to fold!
Go!
Guard!
Ishida...
Man... That guy totally protected himself!
I can't let you have Aichi.
He shouldn't be with you!
As long as there are people who try to take him away...
...we Quatre Knights will protect him with all our might!
Why, you...
We and Aichi are mates, tied together with a passionate bond!
Aichi should be with us!
You're wrong.
What?!
That place isn't suitable for Aichi.
What?!
Seek mate!
You who received the blessing of the great saint, line up here!
Legion!
Call!
Blue Flame!
Our place ain't suitable for him?!
Guard!
That's not true!
Brother Aichi is my brother and my teammate!
He was always with us!
He's the one guy we need!
Yeah.
No one can sever this bond.
You guys...
You guys stole Aichi from us!
Aichi will never go back to you.
Crush the disobedient enemy with your raised swords!
Legion attack!
I win.
We ain't gonna give up!
Never, not 'til we take Aichi back!
No one can rival the bond of the Quatre Knights.
Now, taste it... The taste of defeat!
Holy flames of this prison, become an inferno!
Here it comes! Judgment!
Ishida!
That was quite a fiery fight...
...Naoki Ishida.
But blue flames possess the true heat.
You were no match for me.
Ishida!
You okay, Ishida?
I'm going to shut down this place.
You people can't get close to Aichi.
Just give up.
Wait!
You gotta be kiddin' me!
I...
We ain't givin' up!
Ishida!
I see. I can understand why Neve respects you.
Hold on.
This showdown isn't over yet!
I'm...
Wait, Tokura.
Kai...
I'm next... Gaillard.
Tokura, please.
You're not in the same league.
What's that?!
It's not only the fight.
Mates? Friendship?
It's his destiny to surpass such things.
That's Aichi's burden!
Aichi's... What do you mean?
Anyway, you people are a nuisance to Aichi.
Liar!
That's impossible!
No matter what you say, we're going to beat you four and take Aichi back!
I'll fight him.
You?
No way... It can't be...
Blue Flames Gaillard is strong!
Rati was strong, too, but Gaillard is a real heavy hitter!
How strong are these guys?!
And what's Kourin doing here?
Appearing now, with this timing...
Don't tell me she...
Next time: The Announced Truth.
The Announced Truth
No matter who appears in front of me... of us... we'll beat them!
I have faith that'll lead to Aichi!
