Yuma and his friends, along with the other finalists, are invited to a special event for the World Duel Carnival. Yuma has trouble getting in when he forgets his invitation, but is allowed in by Nistro. During the events, many conversations are occur between the finalists, which include Kite, Shark, Quattro, Quinton, Nistro, and Dextra. As the party goes on, Mr. Heartland's speech is interrupted by the arrival of Vetrix, who tells him his intentions of crushing him and glances at both Yuma and Astral before disappearing. The party is soon plunged into chaos following Flip's attempt to sneak into the party himself. After the party, Yuma has a brief talk with Kite whilst Quinton hires a group of duelists known as the Triad of Terror to target Yuma.

The day of the WDC finals comes, with finalists set to duel on a Duel Coaster for the knockout phase. However, Yuma ends up leaving the Heart Piece required to start the Duel Coaster at home. Tori and the others manage to get the piece to Yuma, though Tori trips and ends up going on the Duel Coaster with Yuma. As the other duelists progress, Yuma is challenged to a 3-on-1 duel against the Triad of Terror.

As Yuma struggles against the combined attacks of the Triad of Terror, Anna appears and joins the fight against them. As Anna soon finds herself in danger, Nistro also appears on the scene to help them out, knocking out Coyote. Yuma then overlays his, Anna's and Nistro's monsters to summon One-Eyed Skill Gainer, defeating Jackal. As the leader, Wolfsbane, makes a desperate attack on Yuma, Anna intercepts the attack and is knocked out, allowing Yuma to knock Wolfsbane out before he collides with him.

As the duelists move onto a new area, Nistro challenges Quinton and Dextra tries to get as many life points as possible in order to face Vetrix whilst Yuma ends up losing more life points after carelessly running into traps. As Quinton prepares to defeat Nistro, Yuma, who had managed to regain some life points on a gamble trap card, steps in to protect Nistro before taking him to the same trap card so he can try to regain some life points too. As the duelists are dwindled down to the last eight, Dextra steps in to face against Vetrix in the Jungle Field.

The duel between Vetrix and Dextra begins, with Dextra seemingly having the advantage due to her increased life points and field advantage, instantly bringing out her Photon Butterfly Assassin and setting up a powerful spell combo. She recalls how she trained with Kite and eventually fell in love with him, wanting to protect him as he protected his little brother, Hart. As Yuma and Tori arrive to spectate the duel, Vetrix summons out his Number card, Number 8: Heraldic King Genom-Heritage, using its abilities to turn Dextra's combo against her before using his powers on her to make her lose her will to fight. Yuma manages to bring Dextra back to her senses, as she summons Photon Alexandra Queen in an attempt to bring the duel to a draw, but Vetrix manages to negate her attack and defeat her, using his powers to take away her memories of Kite. Before leaving, Vetrix tells Yuma that he will be ready for him. Yuma is determine to get Vetrix for what he has done.

Returning to the Duel Coaster, Yuma and Tori run into Orbital 7, who leads them to the Space Field where Kite and Quinton are duelling. Quinton summons out his Number, Number 9: Dyson Sphere, which Kite is unable to see or attack. As Yuma arrives on the scene, Quinton reveals how his father, Byron Arclight, joined Dr. Faker, revealed to be Kite's father, and Kazuma on an expedition to find a gate to a new world. However, Faker betrayed Kazuma and Byron in order to activate the gate, sending them to another world. It is then revealed that Byron eventually returned in the form of Vetrix, while Kazuma was trapped in Astral World. As the duel resumes, Kite summons Galaxy Eyes Photon Dragon whilst Quinton reveals Dyson Sphere's true form.

Quinton explains how, after becoming separated from his family, he met Kite and became his instructor, meaning he knows quite a lot about Kite's strategy. Quinton soon manages to destroy Galaxy Eyes and bring Kite's life points down to 100. Unwilling to give up, Kite manages to draw a spell card given to him by his father, allowing him to summon Neo Galaxy Eyes Photon Dragon and win the duel. After the duel Quinton asks Kite to help save his father, before leaving his Number behind and collapsing alongside Trey.

Yuma and Tori arrive at the Magma Field where Shark and Quattro have begun their duel. Shark summons his Aero Shark whilst Quattro defeats it with his Giant Grinder. Just then, Shark summons the Number card he got from Trey, Shark Drake, and defeats Giant Grinder. Just then, Vetrix appears, revealing his plan, which included having Quattro push Shark into a trap and hurt his sister, is for the sake of pushing Shark heart's into darkness so he can be controlled into taking down Faker. Not willing to accept that he is not chosen to take down Faker, Quattro summons Number 40: Gimmick Puppet of Strings, using it to repeatedly attack Shark whilst Yuma stands helpless, taunted by Vetrix.

As Shark becomes weak from Quattro's attack, Shark Drake once again attempts to put him under his influence, but Shark continues to reject him. As Quattro is shunned by Vetrix, he sacrifices Strings so he can bring out a new Number card, Number 88: Gimmick Puppet of Leo, which will guarantee his victory once its Overlay Units are used up. However, Vetrix manipulates Shark into giving into the darkness of the Number, gaining the power to evolve Shark Drake into Chaos Number 32: Shark Drake Veiss and defeat Quattro. After the duel, Quattro explains how a spell card he received from Vetrix ended up hurting Shark's sister, but he managed to save her life, apologizing for his actions before leaving.

Yuma finally arrives at the Dangerous Canyon Field to face Nistro although, after all the traps he had run into on the way, he only has 100 life points, not helped by the field magic which damages players for summoning and attacking with monsters. However, Nistro activates a trap which restores Yuma's life points so he can have a fair fight with him. The fight soon gets underway, with Yuma bringing out his Gagaga Cowboy and Nistro, annoyed with Yuma playing defensively, bringing out his Heroic Champion - Kusanagi. Realising that he has not been fighting at his all, Yuma decides to get more serious and the duel soon culminates in a showdown between Utopia and Heroic Champion - Excalibur which ends in Yuma's victory. After the duel, Nistro gives Yuma his Excalibur to take with him to the semi-finals.

As Yuma celebrates reaching the finals, he realises he has misplaced his deck within Heartland. As Yuma, Tori, and Bronk sneak into Heartland through the trash system, Vetrix manages to capture Shark and use his powers to brainwash him. As they reach Heartland Tower, Astral informs Yuma that Hart is somewhere in the building. Upon coming up against a Security Bot who poses a puzzle based challenge to them, Tori and Bronk take it on whilst Yuma and Astral push ahead. As Yuma and Astral go to see Hart, who is still unconscious from his encounter with Vetrix, Hart brings them into the world in his mind, asking them to help Kite. Just then, Dr. Faker appears before them, revealing his intention to gather Numbers in order to obtain a special power, before sending Yuma away, returning his deck. As the day of the WDC Semi-Finals come, Yuma is set to face off against Shark.
