Although Manabu's victory had won the matches for the local team, Manabu not being a UTS member convinced everyone to continue the Duels. Before they could, Chupataro broke through a wall and demanded to Rush Duel.<ref name=ep9>{{episode|Yu-Gi-Oh! GO RUSH!!|9|ref}}</ref> Manabu was shocked Chupataro had escaped the MIK Headquarters and ordered his capture after learning they couldn't contact HQ, though Chupataro threatened everyone in the room. Bochi was unable to stop Chupataro, having used up his power Dueling Manabu, so Yudias accepted Chupataro's challenge despite Manabu and Yuhi warning him they didn't know Chupataro's plans. Yudias gained a significant lead over Chupataro when the latter used [[Ewekai - Grudges from the Grave (anime)|a Trap]] to reduce the ATK of his monster just to draw "Magical Sheep Girl Meeeg-chan". To Manabu's shock, [[Earthdamar|a strange substance]] emerged from Chupataro's Duel Disk when he Summoned "Meeeg-chan", physically materializing her. Manabu then learned Mitsuko had orchestrated the escape of Chupataro and several other aliens, having been captured on purpose. [[Magical Sheep Girl Meeeg-chan (character)|Magical Sheep Girl Meeeg-chan]] destroyed Yudias' monsters and physically attacked him, so Manabu tried to stop the Duel, but Yudias continued after learning a monster physically materializing was not a rule violation. Meeeg-chan attacked Yudias again during his own turn, his monsters unable to protect him as they were still only [[Solid Vision]], but Yudias again insisted on Dueling fairly to win, succeeding in Summoning and powering up "Galactica Oblivion" to defeat Meeeg-chan, causing her to vanish. Manabu and the MIK agents had Chupataro and his Duel Disk taken away afterwards.<ref name=ep10>{{episode|Yu-Gi-Oh! GO RUSH!!|10|ref}}</ref>
Chupataro claimed to have been tricked by Zuwijo before losing consciousness, so Manabu and Nyandestar visited the UTS office Main Office to interrogate Yudias over his whereabouts. Yudias didn't answer and the Ohdo twins told Manabu to stop interrogating him as Yudias wouldn't lie, a statement Manabu admitted he knew to be true after Nyandestar's agreement. After Manabu complimented the Duel Rice Crackers [[London Kirishima]] had provided, Yudias asked what would happen to Zuwijo if MIK caught him, and Manabu explained Zuwijo's likely sentence of cryostasis, sharply declaring that he was doing all he could and asking of all Yudias could do was plead and beg before departing.<ref name="ep11">{{episode|Yu-Gi-Oh! GO RUSH!!|11|ref}}</ref> Despite Manabu's harshness, he structured his search to give the UTS group a small lead in their own efforts.<ref name="ep12">{{episode|Yu-Gi-Oh! GO RUSH!!|12|ref}}</ref> As they continued searching for Zuwijo, Manabu worried that Zuwijo had left the town and assured Nyandestar it wasn't her fault she had trouble tracking old aline traces. They were informed an alien had been detected and rushed to the location, but found [[Tell Kawai]] there. Kawai denied he was working with Zuwijo, claiming that he wanted to witness what concerned the future of all aliens on Earth, indicating Zuwijo was at [[Mutsuba Tower]].<ref name="ep11" />
Manabu and Nyandestar hurried to Mutsuba Tower, shocked to see the massive "[[Voidvelgr Hecatoncheir (anime)|Voidvelgr Hecatoncheir]]" towering above the Tower, but Zuwijo had already materialized it with the Earthdamar by the time they reached the roof, leaving MIK powerless to stop the Rush Duel. After Yuhi failed to create a new Earthdamar for Yudias, Nyandestar told Manabu the Duel was out of their hands and Manabu learned the power of Earthdamar depended on the Duelist using it. During the Duel Manabu learned Mutsuba Cable were broadcasting the match and tried to have it stopped, but Manya and Yuamu instead suggested using the opportunity to convince the townspeople it was special effects. Yudias destroyed "Hecatoncheir, but to Manabu's shock Zuwijo Summoned "[[Voidvelgr Requiem (anime)|Voidvelgr Requiem]]" and used the Earthdamar's "Egil Velgear Gyurudo" to clad himself with it after its power was spread across Mutsuba Town.<ref name="ep12" /> The Earthdamar's power partially materialized monsters from Duelists' Decks across the town, including Manabu's "[[Dynamo Might (anime)|Dynamo Might]]", and caused Yuhi to collapse. As Manabu tried to find the source of the phenomenon, Yuamu suggested he check the power source of Mutsuba Tower; to his shock, Manabu learned the tower was operating and Yuamu explained her belief Zuwijo was spreading the Earthdamar with Mutsuba Tower's radio transmitter. Manabu suggested stopping the Duel, but Yuamu revealed Yuhi's soul had been trapped inside "Voidvelgr Requiem" and worried doing so could be dangerous. [[Asaka Mutsuba]] then used her [[Heavy Cavalry]] to remove the Earthdamar from Mutsuba Tower, dematerializing most of the monsters. After Yuamu conveyed the unconscious Yuhi's request for Yudias to defeat Zuwijo, Yudias was able to do so by destroying "Requiem" with "Galactica Oblivion", freeing Yuhi's soul. Manabu immediately ordered his agents to capture Zuwijo, but Mitsuko fled with him before they could do so. Yuhi soon awoke, and admitted he didn't believe Zuwijo to be as bad as they thought given his restraint while clad in "Requiem", while Yudias believed Zuwijo to be hiding something.<ref name="ep13">{{episode|Yu-Gi-Oh!
