Republicans began the Third Party System by crusading against slavery in 1856 while Greeley rang the charges against Grant's corruption in 1872.

The way to deal with crusaders was not to defend the status quo but to launch a counter-crusade, attacking the crusaders as crazy extremists. Thus Jefferson was attacked as an atheist, Jackson as a murderer and duelist, Fremont as a disunionist, and Bryan as an anarchist.

Following Zarc's defeat, taking care of the infant Riley became from absorbing the evil duelist's soul, Declan is the only member of the Standard Dimension based Lancers to retain his memories while orchestrating the Junior ARC League Championship together with Yusho to restore Yuya's memories in hopes that Yuya can save his sister from her self-imposed fate. When Yuya's duels across the dimensions failed to achieve the ideal response from Riley, Declan decides to duel Yuya as the latter's final test to become Professional Duelist, which resulted in his defeat. Declan uses a D/D deck, capable of Fusion, Synchro, and Xyz Summoning, and later develops his own Pendulum Monsters after studying Yuya's actions.
