Editing Nightshroud (section)

==== Nightshroud’s True Form ====
Nightshroud is not entirely destroyed and reappears in its true form. It creates a massive eclipse, merging its dark world with Earth and pulling all humans into the World of Darkness, leaving Jaden, Pharaoh the cat, and the spirit of Lyman Banner as the last remaining beings on Earth. In this final duel, Nightshroud challenges Jaden, viewing him as an anomaly due to his dual nature as a human and a spirit-bonded Duelist (referring to his bond with [[Yubel]]).

Nightshroud reveals its origins, explaining that it was born from the insecurities, fears, and guilt present in every human, which gave rise to the darkness it embodies. It argues that its world’s domination is inevitable, as humanity will destroy itself through its own flaws. Despite its powerful "Darkness," "Zero," and "Infinity" combo, Jaden counters with "Super Polymerization," fusing Yubel with "Elemental Hero Neos" to create "Neos Wiseman," turning the tide.

Nightshroud attempts to regain control with "Darkness Seed" and "Darkness Neosphere," but Jaden disables its combo using "Neo-Spacian Dark Panther" and inspires the trapped humans to reclaim their hope and bonds. Freed from the darkness, humanity’s collective spirit allows Jaden to defeat Nightshroud with "Elemental Hero Divine Neos." As Nightshroud is banished back to the World of Darkness, it vows to return as long as darkness exists within humans, but Jaden asserts that their bonds will always stand in its way.
