Noah directs everyone to the real exits in the virtual Domino City arcade. With the virtual world about to be destroyed, Gozaburo turns into a red monster and tries to escape in Kaiba's body. However, Kaiba persuades him to continue Dueling, promising his body if Gozaburo wins. Joey, Duke, Tristan, Téa, and Serenity escape to the real world. Tristan wakes up in his real body. At Noah's request, Yugi stays behind to find Kaiba. Noah gives him a shortcut to Kaiba and Gozaburo's Duel. Kaiba wins the Duel, but Gozaburo tries to take his body anyway in his red monster form. Yugi helps Kaiba escape the building and Noah gives them a new exit. As Kaiba and Yugi wake up in their pods in the real world, Noah, in Mokuba's body, climbs back inside a pod and reenters the virtual world. Noah gives Mokuba's body back and the two say goodbye as Noah sends Mokuba back to the real world. Kaiba wakes Mokuba and they, with Yugi, rush to board the blimp. In the virtual world, Gozaburo plans to upload his mind to another network, but Noah traps him as the place destructs. All of the gang escape the fortress in the blimp, although Yugi, Kaiba, and Mokuba barely make it. Noah and Gozaburo are destroyed with the virtual world when the missile hits the fortress; however, Gozaburo makes one last bid to escape in the form of a large flame. He fails to consume the blimp when Kaiba transforms the blimp into a jet so it can escape and disappears with the explosion. Watching the explosion from above, the gang say their farewells to Noah. Kaiba expresses his wish to put the past behind him and continue to KaibaCorp Island to let the Battle City finals commence.
