The fight between Aichi and Leon reaches its climax. After Leon uses the Ultimate Break of Glory Maelstrom to increase its power and prevent Aichi from guarding with grade 1 or higher units, Aichi attempts to guard with two grade 0 units. However, Leon drive checks a heal trigger, which gives Glory Maelstrom enough power to penetrate Aichi's defense. Aichi survives the attack thanks to his own heal trigger. Leon slowly grows weakened after absorbing Void's power as Aichi crossrides Platina Ezel and activates its Ultimate Break to overpower and finally defeat Leon.
Void leaves Leon's body, and Takuto opens the path to the planet Cray, declaring that Aichi's Gold Paladin clan is the rightful leader of Cray. Aichi holds up his deck, and with a reformed Leon's help, the Gold Paladins and Aqua Force units dispel Void's darkness from Cray and free the sealed Royal Paladin, Shadow Paladin, and Kagero clans. Aichi then faints and has a vision of Blaster Blade and the other Royal Paladins appearing before him. Takuto telepathically informs him that he is now able to use Royal Paladins again. While Aichi is glad to hear that, he does not want to part with Gold Paladins after fighting alongside them for so long. The Royal Paladins fade away, as Blaster Blade tells Aichi that they will forever be with him.
Everyone is then transported back to Earth. The next day, the finale of the VF Circuit takes place, and Team Q4 is crowned the winning team of the Circuit. Afterwards, Aichi and his friends return to their daily lives, with Aichi deciding to continue using Gold Paladins, now including a Gold Paladin version of his avatar card, Blaster Blade.
