A pair of eyes, fixed on the center of the battle, shone with an unprecedented brightness!

The collisions are still ongoing.

The cracks in the earth are expanding rapidly.

An unimaginable gale was whipped up at the heart of their battle.

In less than a second, all the trees around the two were uprooted.

Makarov, having barely landed, hadn't even had time to regain his footing.

The onslaught of wind whipped its small body.

【"hateful……"】

[Watching Laxus being tossed about by the wind once more in the distance.]

Makarov frowned.

[With one hand, he grows gigantic and grabs Laxus, who is flying through the wind.]

[On one hand, it enlarged its entire body to enormous size.]

[An attempt to resist the terrifying shockwave erupting from the center of the battle.]

The cloaks of the gigantic Ten Wizard Saints fluttered wildly.

[Braving the fierce wind, Makarov could barely open his eyes.]

But he could hear hearty laughter emanating from the heart of the battle!

"Hahaha!! This is the feeling! It's been so long! So long since I've played like this!"

[At the heart of the battle, amidst the dramatic changes unfolding around them, Gildarts paid no heed to the commotion.]

At this moment! The strongest fairy's eyes were filled only with the boy before her.

[Amazing! Incredibly amazing!]

This is almost certainly the strongest opponent Gildarts has encountered in his decades as an S-class mage!

"Kildarts!!"

[Hakunazu's face was also filled with excitement!]

This strongest fairy is indeed not a fake.

He's incredibly strong! Incredibly strong!

Outside the sky.

Countless people were already dumbfounded!

Pairs of eyes were fixed intently on the scene in the sky.

Watching this battle for the strongest fairy.

Who would have thought that it was just an ordinary S-class mage promotion competition?

How could such a terrifying battle have broken out?

Gray: "Hey, hey, hey, is this Gildarts?"

Happy: "That's outrageous! Both sides are ridiculously outrageous!"

Eileen: "Both of them are freaks. That Gildarts is almost on par with the Twelve Shields, isn't he?"

Augustus: "Not only that! Gildarts, based on the strength he's shown, is definitely on par with most of the Twelve Shields!"

"You know, he got to this point without His Majesty's guidance."

Agil: "Then... according to August, doesn't that mean the Black Natsu in the picture is already comparable to the Twelve Shields?"

Timalia: "Wow!! Is this some kind of exaggeration?"

Eileen: "This is no exaggeration. If you take into account the elemental weaknesses... I might not even be able to beat him."

Brandish: "Even Lady Irene..."

Zeref: "This is Henna's true potential, but it's not even enough!"

"There are still many more treasures hidden within him that have not yet been discovered!"

A clash of fists ends in a draw.

The next moment, both of them were simultaneously thrown back two steps.

However, without the slightest hesitation, the two suddenly attacked again.

A clash of fists and feet, a battle of flesh against flesh!

The clash of magic against magic is about to begin.

[Rapid attacks, impeccable defense, and exhilarating combat are all on full display at this moment!]

【boom----!!】

[Another blow, and the two were forced back again.]

The raging flames had been waiting in Black Natsu's mouth for a long time, and in the instant they retreated...

[Gush forth!]

[The Fire Dragon's Roar!!!]

【roar----!!!】

The resounding dragon roar nearly terrified all the magical beasts on the island.

Countless creatures stared in terror into the depths from which the sound originated.

Their legs began to tremble as they fled.

Gildarts waved his hand, and a cross-shaped beam of light spun in front of him.

[The terrifying roar that last time engulfed the wyvern and shattered half a mountain peak with a single blow gradually crumbled into cubes under that light.]

Hennaz stopped roaring and exhaled a breath of stale air.

"That's truly a freakish ability."

"You're more surprising than a pervert, aren't you, kid?"

"Who would have thought that someone so young could possess such terrifying power within them?"

Gildarts wiped the sweat from his cheeks and burst into laughter.

"In this battle, I seemed to see the future."

"At the same time, I see your limitless potential! Kid!"

"There are far too many geniuses in this era, but I'm confident you can stand out from the crowd!"

"Thank you for the compliment!" Henna murmured softly.

[The conversation then shifted!]

"But that's not enough!"

【"Not enough?" Gildarts was stunned.】

"Yes, just getting 220 is nothing to be proud of; it's just being the top scorer among this group. I've heard of far more brilliant people who, at that time, destroyed everything."

[Henazu spoke in a low voice.]

"It destroyed everything I had, so until I grew strong enough to completely crush it!"

[Honatsu suddenly raised his head!]

"I will absolutely not stop!!!"

Kyldas seemed stunned by those bold words.

After a long pause, he burst out laughing, a loud laugh.

"I can feel your determination, Natsu!"

"As the examiner, there's absolutely no problem with passing you now."

"But I don't think you'll end this battle so easily, will you?"

Henna's chest heaved violently, but his expression was unusually excited.

He clenched his fist tightly towards Gildarts.

"Of course! Let's continue the duel, Gildarts!"

An even more immense magical power poured forth from Gildarts' body.

He clenched his fists in unison, staring directly at Henna.

"Listen carefully, zzz!"

"I don't know how grand your goal is, but to achieve it, you must become someone who can overcome all obstacles and relentlessly move forward!"

"Right now, I'm standing right in front of you!"

"Come and defeat me! Then, become a Super Mage!"
