bopdog111: And now here is where Ace's training begins.

Ulrich362: Well after seeing if Kaiba can create the DigiWorld for him.

bopdog111: Let's find out shall we?

Ulrich362: We shall. Enjoy the chapter.

Disclaimer: We don't own Yu-Gi-Oh! ARC-V, and Yu-Gi-Oh! VRAINS but we own the OCs!


It was a few days after Ace had been sick and while he recovered Yuki, Gale, and Kelly managed to convince Kaiba to make the DigiWorld in his Virtual World after some persuasion from Wendy, Bruno, and Snow. Kaiba was typing hard at work for it.

"Have you rested since they asked this favor?" Serenity asked walking up to him with Naomi.

"I had plenty of breaks." Kaiba told her simply.

Serenity frowned. "Your daughter and I are worried about you."

Kaiba turned to her, "Of course, Serenity. It's nearly finished."

She nodded.

"Daddy, come home." Naomi said sadly.

"I'll be back soon Naomi." Kaiba told his daughter.

She looked down sadly. "Ok..."

"It'll be okay Naomi." Mokuba smiled walking over, "Seto's nearly finished."

She smiled.


Meanwhile at the Akaba residence...

Ring Ring.

Ray answered, "Hello?"

"Ray, it's Julia."

"What's up Julia?" Ray asked.

"Well with all the insanity Double Iris and I never actually had our date. Could you see if dinner tomorrow night works?" Julia requested. "My treat."

"Okay I'll tell him." Ray smiled.

"Thanks." Julia smiled hanging up.

Dawn walked up, "Mom, are you, and the baby doing okay?"

"Of course." Ray smiled.

Dawn smiled, "What do you think it will be?"

"I don't know." Ray admitted only to smile. "What do you want Ace?"

"I don't know." Ace answered looking up from his cards.

Dawn hugged him. "Feeling better?"

"Yeah." Ace smiled to her hugging her back.

Ray smiled at that. She then felt a kick. Ray smiled placing a hand on her stomach. Ace noticed and put his cards away before hugging her. Ray hugged him back. Zarc walked in with Black Fang.

"Hey Dad, Black Fang." Dawn smiled.

"Hi Dawn. How are you guys?" Black Fang asked.

"Ace is feeling better." Ray smiled while kneeling next to Ace since she can't pick him up.

Ace swallowed nervously. Dawn patted his back with a smile.

"Big sis... I'm scared." Ace admitted.

"It's okay to be scared." Dawn smiled.

Ace shook his head. "I'm excited too, but..."

Ace looked down nervously.

"Can you keep a secret big sis?"

Dawn looked curious. Ace frowned before shaking his head. Dawn took him upstairs for them to talk. Ace was sitting on his bed and frowned. "I... can I tell you after the big important duel big sis?"

"What is it?" Dawn asked him.

"I'll tell you after, I promise." Ace said.

Dawn nodded as they walked back down to where Blue Frost was playing with Snow.

"Peek a boo!" Blue Frost smiled.

Snow giggled happily and started clapping. Blue Frost chuckled before pouring water in front of Snow from his place at the high chair where his tray is before concentrating as the water morphed into a small dancer made of water, and started to dance to entertain Snow. Seeing that Snow giggled before touching the water and turning it into a snowball.

"Oh Snow." Blue Frost laughed seeing that.

He smiled happily before blinking and closing his eyes while pointing at the snowball causing it to start shaking. Blue Frost looks curious seeing this. Snow opened his eyes and looked at her as the snowball slowly started changing before it collapsed and he started to cry. Blue Frost took him off the high chair, and rocked him, "It's okay."

That's when she looked and saw in the pile of snow what looked like it was trying to be a face. Curious she looked closer. It was hard to make out the details but she realized Snow was trying to make her face but wasn't able to. Blue Frost smiled hugging her son before closing her eyes where the snow formed into Snow. Seeing that Snow smiled.

"Big sis... is it time to go?" Ace asked her.

"Yeah. Come on Snow." Blue Frost smiled.

Snow giggled as she picked him up and they all left to head to the Ritual Dimension, and KaibaCorp. They walked, and soon they see Mokuba, Zigfried, and Serenity holding Naomi were there.

"Hi guys." Dawn smiled.

"Right on time." Mokuba smiled.

"Is everybody already there?" Ace asked.

"Their waiting." Serenity smiled.

Zarc nodded and they walked inside. They see everyone but Kaiba was there.

"Where's Kaiba?" Ray asked.

"He's running simulations in case their are glitches, viruses, or bugs." Leon answered.

"That makes sense." Ray nodded. "Well, ready Acey?"

He swallowed nervously before nodding. At that Kaiba walked out saying, "I finished the tests. It's ready for Ace."

"Thank you." Ace smiled.

Kaiba only nodded as several pods opened. Everyone got into the pods. They closed as Kaiba went to a large computer screen to work, and for them to see.

Soon their consciousness entered the Virtual World which they can see is DigiWorld.


Ace's eyes widened seeing it before he ran to a river and gently ran his fingers through the water. It felt as though it's real. He smiled happily.

"Welcome to the DigiWorld everyone."

Hearing that the girls, Yusaku, and Ace turned over.

Sitting on a nearby tree branch was Renamon before she jumped down and several other Digimon from Ace's deck and more appeared as a male angel with a staff stepped forward.

"It's a pleasure to meet you all face to face."

"You all are..." Dawn trailed off in shock.

"Here in the DigiWorld we can manifest. Though it's like I told Ace before, he doesn't have one Duel Spirit. He has a world of them." Renamon explained calmly. "He heard us."

"So that's why he asked Kaiba to make DigiWorld a part of the Virtual World." Kelly realized.

Ace blushed but nodded before taking a breath and turning to his sisters. "How will the match work? I..."

He blushed a little more and looked down.

"I want to duel you so Mr. Yusaku can see what to help me with and then we can play with everybody."

"Like we duel?" Stacy smiled to the girls.

They nodded as Terri said, "You take the first turn, and when one of our turns is over it's your turn again."

Ace nodded. "Ok, but... before we start can I do something?"

"What is it?" Alex asked him.

Ace smiled before hugging them one by one. "I love you all."

They all smiled hugging him back. After that Ace walked to take his position opposite them though Dawn noticed he was trembling slightly.

"Ace?" Dawn asked seeing that.

Ace looked at her in confusion. "What's wrong big sis?"

"You were shaking." Dawn answered.

Ace looked down. "I'm ok."

Dawn walked to him. Ace looked at her in confusion.

"Are you okay?" Dawn asked him.

Ace nodded. Dawn patted his shoulder. Ace closed his eyes before getting ready. "I go first?"

They all nodded as Yusaku sat down on a log to spectate.

"Let's Duel!" Ace, Dawn, Stacy, Lilly, Terri, Alex, and Kelly all called together.

"Extra Deck summoning from Deck with a Pendulum Monster?" Lilly asked amazed.

Ace nodded. "Um... big sis Terri what's it called again?"

"Xyz." Terri smiled.

"I meant like big sis Alex has to tune." Ace admitted.

"Oh it's Synchro." Terri told him.

"He's talking about Overlaying." Yusaku told them.

"Oh yeah... thank you Mr. Yusaku." Ace smiled.

Terri blushed hearing that.

"I play Skullmeramon's special ability. I use an Overlay Unit to destroy one monster on the field that isn't a Fire Monster. I pick... Luster Pendulum." (ORU: 3 - 2)

The Xyz Digimon fired flames that destroyed Luster Pendulum. Yusaku looked curious seeing Ace talking with his Xyz Monster.

"This helps my team by changing my card's scales!" Stacy called.

Friendship Magician: (Pendulum Scale: 5 + 1 = 6)

Smile Magician: (Pendulum Scale: 3 - 1 = 2)

"Wow." Ace whispered. "You're super strong big sis."

Ace swallowed nervously.

"And now Smile Magician allows me to add a Spell to my hand." Stacy smiled adding the card, "Then 1 face-down. During the end of this turn since I summoned Majester Paladin, I can add a Pendulum Monster to my hand."

Ace 2nd Turn:

Ace drew his card. "Ok, I play this down and now Skullmeramon attacks Majester Paladin."

Skullmeramon turned to him.

"Huh?" Ace asked in confusion before his eyes widened. "Oh... I don't attack."

Yusaku seeing that asked, "Ace?"

"Yes Mr. Yusaku?" Ace asked.

"You can talk to your monsters, and from them being Cyberse that's a special connection. Answer this do you feel the pulses of the Cyberse?" Yusaku asked him.

"Huh?" Ace asked. "I don't think so."

"It meant feeling a special power from Cyberse monsters." Yusaku told him.

"He can't do that, his connection is to us alone." Renamon explained.

"Well then that's another reason for me to train him. By feeling the pulses of the Cyberse he'll have abilities that experienced Cyberse Users have. He needs to master those skills to be strong with them." Yusaku told him.

Ace hearing that frowned and looked down. Dawn frowned hugging him.

"Should I just stop?" Ace asked her.

"No." Dawn told him. "It's okay if you don't. Not everyone has that kind of gift."

Ace nodded only to pause and look at his monster before smiling. "I end my turn."

"Your passing?" Alex asked seeing that.

"I played a card facedown." Ace said pointing to it.

Skullmeramon shattered.

"Then Smile Magician allows me to add a Spell to my hand." Terri said adding a Spell, "Now Drident attack!"

Drident charged in at Ace. Ace closed his eyes as the attack approached before suddenly opening them. "I play one of ZeedMillenniummon's Pendulum Abilities!"

"Huh?" Terri asked hearing that.

His facedown card shattered. At that Drident stopped inches from Ace as he grinned before retreating back. Ace let out a sigh of relief at that.

"Saffira... she isn't big sis Kelly's ace but I think she's pretty." Ace admitted before pausing and smiling.

"I destroy Duskmon so your turn's over big sis and I get Gatomon back." Ace said.

His Ritual Shattered as Kelly's Duel Disk assigned End Phase.

"A Ritual that summons back a monster when destroyed huh?" Alex asked seeing that, "But that means you can't use King Drasil's ability again."

"I know." Ace nodded.

"Which one now?" Renaming inquired.

"Okay Ace your card ended my turn." Kelly said to him, "But since it's my End Phase since I Ritual Summoned, Saffria, I can draw 2 cards, and discard 1."

"I'm sorry big sis, but I had too." Ace apologized.

"Ok big..." Ace started before suddenly pausing. "Huh, really? But I... ok. I destroy Angewomon and make it the Draw Phase again."

Confused Alex watched as Ace's Synchro shattered, "Well since it's the Draw Phase again, I can draw another card."

'What's his goal?' Yusaku thought curiously.

Alex drew before saying, "Okay appear the Circuit of Crystron!"

The Circuit appeared in place.

"A Link Summon?" Ace asked.

"The Summoning conditions are two monsters at least one is a Tuner!" Alex called as the two flew to the Bottom-Right, and Bottom-Left Arrows, "Link Summon! Link 2, Crystron Glassfiber!"

Ace's eyes widened suddenly. "Oh no!"

"Now I activate her ability! I discard a card to destroy a card on your field. And my choice is your Scale 13 monster!" Alex called as Coral Dragon charged on at ZeedMillenniummon.

Ace cried out as his monster was destroyed.

"And I activate my face-down, Xyz Reborn!" Alex called.

"Stay calm Ace, you've almost won." said a small green worm.

Hearing that Yusaku looked curious, 'Are they sure he can't feel the pulses of the Cyberse...?'

"Now Glassfiber, Coral Dragon, Doom Chimera Dragon attack!" Alex called as all three monsters charged in making 4900 battle damage.

"Fuse?" Lilly asked hearing that.

Ace nodded. "I don't know what to summon but they say if I do I can win."

He looked over the Digimon Group after saying that. Suddenly Ace's eyes widened. "Huh? Really?"

"Ace?" Alex asked seeing that.

"I Fuse Lobomon with KendoGarurumon in order to Fusion Summon BeoWolfmon in attack mode." Ace said.

Ace closed his eyes in defeat but had a smile on his face.

"Go!" Lilly cried as the four monsters charged in.

The attacks hit as Ace was knocked back.

(Ace: 14200)

"That's it big sis... finish me off." Ace said. "I know I lose this time."

As the monsters faded Ace blushed.

"Um... do you get stronger when you're protecting people?" Ace asked.

They all walked to him hugging him as Alex smiled, "Yes."

Ace looked happy. "Yay, that means I can protect Bruno, and Wendy, and my baby brother or sister, and Snow, and everybody else too."

Suddenly he turned bright red.

"And... Sandy."

All of the girls giggled at that as Yusaku walked over. Ace turned to him. "Sorry Mr. Yusaku, I don't know what the Cyberse Pulse is."

"Well I think I seen signs that you do feel pulses." Yusaku told him, "And that from seeing that duel, I can tell several things we can work on."

Ace nodded.

"Yusaku, are you familiar with the term Spirit Partner?" asked a Gatomon.

"I heard that several people had the gift." Yusaku answered.

"It's like I told Ace before, every single Digimon is his Spirit Partner. Cyberse or not." Renamon told him.

Yusaku nodded before what appeared behind him was a blue, and white dragon looking cybernetic roaring.

"Is that your ace?" Alex asked.

"Yes, and one of my partners Firewall Dragon." Yusaku answered looking up at the Dragon, "And I have others as well several you might remember."

At that Decode Talker, Quantum Dragon, eXceed Dragon, Cyberse Magician, and a purple, and gold dragon all appeared.

"This is my Fusion Monster, Cyberse Clock Dragon." Yusaku introduced as the purple dragon growled softly, "And these two are my greatest monsters. Meet Accesscode Talker!"

At that a white, and black Code Talker appeared wielding a golden lance.

"And finally Firewall Dragon Darkfluid!" Yusaku added as a black, purple, and green lined dragon with brown armor, and purple eyes appeared roaring.

They looked at the monsters in surprise.

"Wow." Ace whispered.

"One day Ace you, and your Digimon spirits will be just as strong as these creatures." Yusaku told him, "And Extended is a part of it."

At that Extended Decode Talker which is a two sword wielding Decode Talker with yellow, and purple armor appeared behind Ace. Ace looked at the monster before closing his eyes and taking the card. "Then Mr. Yusaku... one day Extended Decode Talker and I will surpass you."

"Until then I'll train you." Yusaku said offering his hand for Ace to shake.

Ace smiled taking it. At that Yusaku activated his Duel Disk, "Ready for your first lesson?"

Ace blinked in surprise before nodding. "Yeah."

At that they activated their Duel Disks as their Code Talkers settled behind them.

"TIME TO DUEL!" the two declared.
