He unlocks the canister and rips off his mechanical arm. A purple circle appears on his chest, purple lines start to form over his now muscular body, more of it starts to form on his face, and his sclerae turn pitch black, showing his status as a Dark Signer. Goodwin's jacket then tears as his muscles expand. To everyone's surprise, the Condor dark mark appears on his back. Goodwin adds Roman's old arm to his own body (This is skipped in the dub). As Rex sets down the capsule, he replies that the arm belonged to his brother Roman, prompting Yusei to ask why he has it. Jack remembers learning that Goodwin has a mechanical left arm, during the Fortune Cup, and asks if the arm in the capsule is his. The mark begins to glow, causing the Signers to feel pain through their own marks. He picks up the capsule containing Roman's arm, with a Mark of the Dragon. He has used the Crimson Dragon to bring the Signers here for the sake of that ritual. Yusei asks why the King is coming here and he tells Yusei that the stairway is the place for the Divine Ritual. He stares back at the King of the Netherworld coming in their direction, noting its progress. Goodwin finishes his sentence, replying ". Yusei asks if they have lost and says "The world.". Rex Goodwin, who has been waiting for them, appears at the top of the stairway, where he welcomes and congratulates the Signers for defeating the Dark Signers, although they were unable to close the Doors of the Netherworld. Akiza deduces that the Condor geoglyph they saw in Satellite was above Goodwin's residence, while Leo is surprised at how they got there in such short time. The Condor geoglyph glows just above the stairway. Jack recognizes it as the monument that Goodwin had inside his mansion. The gang and their Duel Runners are transported to Goodwin's island residence, where one of of the buildings has been smashed, as the Stairway to the Dragon Star has jutted out from underground, breaking through it. The Crimson Dragon sends a blast of light at the Signers and their companions. After a few cracks of thunder, some red light shines from the sky, making way for the Crimson Dragon. The other Signer marks begin to glow too. Leo wonders how can they stop a huge creature like this. Kuribon warns her that the king must not reach the Condor geoglyph. Luna's Mark of the Dragon begins to ache and Kuribon appears at her side. The Stairway piercing through the island. Trudge asks if this means it's the end of the world, but Mina replies that they're still here and the darkness hasn't completely taken over. Yusei infers that this creature must be the King of the Netherworld. Crow mentions how Roman had warned them that the King of the Netherworld would appear if they fail to seal the four towers before sunset. Everyone is terrified by the creature's presence. The dragon stands over Satellite, dripping sludge, and staring in the direction of the Condor lines. Two red glowing eyes appear near the top of the sludge as it takes the form of a giant dragon. Various thunderbolts strike the area around that crater above the former Dark Signers' lair and a dark filthy liquid makes its way out of the hole. The King of the Netherworld takes its form.
Yusei understands that the Doors to the Netherworld have completely opened. A mild earthquake breaks out right before some multi-colored light is emitted from the crater in the center of the B.A.D.
Crow meets Akiza for the first time, seeing that she won her Duel, but wonders what the current phenomenon is about. Jack and Crow catch up with the rest of the gang, Yusei, Akiza, Luna, Leo, Mina and Trudge, who are gazing up at the Condor. The Condor geoglyph has just formed in the sky, causing concern among Yusei and his friends. Summary King of the Netherworld's arrival
