Yuyas großes Ziel ist es, an der Junior-ARC-Liga teilzunehmen und einen Sieg zu holen. Doch bevor er das erreichen kann, muss er noch gegen viele schwierige Gegner antreten. Einer davon ist der berühmte Koch Reed Pepper, der Yuya ganz schön einheizt …
After having to skip breakfast due to his mother attempted to make a complicated recipe, Yuya meets up with his first opponent, Michio Mokota, whilst Sora begins his attempt to defeat six opponents in a row and earn a spot in the Junior Youth Championship. As Yuya's duel begins, Yuya is put under pressure by both Michio's Royal Foodmate monsters and his own hunger. Yuya attempts to Pendulum Summon his monsters, but Michio uses his Foodmates' abilities to destroy them.
Per ottenere l'idoneità a partecipare al Junior Youth Championship, Yuya deve vincere quattro duelli ufficiali consecutivi. Finisce così per incontrare Reed Pepper, un giovane cuoco duellante molto popolare tra le casalinghe.
