Yugi and crew don't know whether to accept Noah's info or not given all that Noah had done but feel they have no other choice. Kaiba is still stuck dueling his stepfather and isn't able to take Exodia Necross down until he plays a key Trap Card that nearly costs himself the Duel. With Exodia Necross back to regular Exodia, Kaiba takes it down to win the Duel and now must escape. Most of the gang return to the airship but some are still missing and only just make it before the Virtual World crumbles. Gozaburo Kaiba isn't giving up and attacks them as they try to escape but Noah keeps him trapped within the arena.
