Compared to the two fairies, Natsu is truly slaying a dragon!

His chest heaved, as if he were gulping in oxygen from the air.

Only after completely leaving the riverbed did Natsu toss the giant crocodile he was carrying onto the ground.

He let out a long sigh of relief and clapped his hands.

"Phew... now dinner's taken care of."

Chapter Twenty-Five: No, you call this eight years old?

And so, under the slightly stunned gazes of countless people.

Natsu carried the enormous creature, many times larger than himself, upstream towards the shelter he had chosen.

[Thump...]

[Leaving the crocodile's massive body aside, Natsu immediately set off towards the nearby woods.]

[Then, one by one, the towering trees that stood in the forest fell.]

[It became part of the building materials for Natsu's sanctuary.]

[We encountered a dense swarm of bees along the way; with a single breath, we wiped them all out and even harvested some delicious honey.]

[Then, before it got completely dark, they dragged several huge trees toward the flat ground.]

Everything seemed to be proceeding in an orderly manner.

It's hard to imagine that a child who looks to be under ten years old could act so maturely.

It was as if they had rehearsed it many times; even setting up a shelter was a piece of cake for them.

It was completely finished in less than an hour.

Although it looks a bit hastily made, it's just a place to rest, so we don't need to be too demanding. As long as we can stay there, it's fine.

After setting up the shelter, Natsu took a bottle filled with liquid from his shirt pocket.

"Igneel, please give me one more hand."

Natsu smiled, then poured the liquid from the bottle evenly around the outer edge of the shelter.

Only after all this was done did Natsu finally focus his attention on the enormous crocodile.

"Now it's time to eat."

Brian: "Something's not right, something's not right, is this kid really not even ten years old?"

Hades: "Speaking of which, it seems that we have never talked about how old Natsu was at this time, but judging from his physique and bone age, he should be around eight years old."

Eight years old?

Brian felt that his world had been severely impacted.

Brian: "You call this eight years old?"

"Your eight-year-old can build a shelter? Your eight-year-old can take on a swarm of crocodiles on his own?"

"Moreover, if I'm not mistaken, the bottle that the little kid was holding in the video just now should contain something related to fire dragons."

"It could be sweat, it could be urine, in any case, it should be a liquid with the aura of a fire dragon. He wants to imitate the beasts in the jungle, using the aura of a fire dragon to mark out his territory and prevent others from approaching rashly."

"This level of intelligence and alertness, is he really only eight years old?!"

"The Oración Seis I brought out of the Tower of Paradise were only teenagers back then, but they all looked like idiots. How could they possibly be so smart?"

Kebra: "..."

Angel: "Idiot??"

Walter: "I was smart back then, okay, as long as it was about money."

Lisa: "I feel insulted."

Dark Night: "Father? In your eyes, am I also mentally challenged?"

Natsu: "Anyway, no matter how you see it, I feel like I'm a stranger to the person from that other world."

"It's even more unfamiliar to me than I am in Edolas."

Lucy: "You're even more useless, Edolas."

Natsu: "...Are you praising me?"

Hades: "Pfft!! I still can't understand how someone with that kind of brain could have beaten me back then."

Gajeel: "By the way, what I'm more curious about is when the Metaricana of this world will appear? I'm really looking forward to that guy's arrival, so I can teach this Black Natsu a lesson."

Natsu: "Don't be happy. In this world, you might be getting taken care of by Igneel, just like we were back then."

Mavis: "You two should stop bickering. Speaking of which, I'm also a little curious. What's it like when this seemingly perfect Black Natsu faces a dragon?"

Stinger: "Is there even a need to guess? When humans face dragons, it's already quite an achievement if they don't wet themselves in fear, let alone Mr. Black Natsu when he was a child."

"If it were an adult Mr. Hennez, I believe he would be able to face a dragon head-on, but it's too early now."

Rector: "That's right. At this age, even Stinger couldn't slay a dragon. He would need to train for at least a few more years."

Stinger: "Me back then? Back then I was already able to fight against Perslogia."

Rector: "By the way, let me tell you something. Perslokia is the dragon who taught Sting Dragon Slayer Magic. He's a white dragon, and he's also the dragon that Sting killed!"

Rector's words were spoken.

A brief silence fell over the world channel.

Killed the dragon?

Inside the Fairy Tail guild, three Dragon Slayer mages looked at each other in bewilderment.

An expression of disbelief filled their faces.

"So, he killed his parents?" Natsu's eyes widened, seemingly unable to believe it.

It's important to know that even a ruthless person like Gajeel never considered killing his own family.

That said.

"How could Sting possibly do that?"

Within the World Channel.

Uru: "So, you killed the dragon that raised you and taught you the magic to slay dragons?"

Gerald: "Impossible, can that kind of creature really be killed?"

Ultear: "Putting aside whether it's possible or not, do you have a grudge against that white dragon?"

Rogue: "Don't ask any more questions. In short, we are real dragon slayer mages who have killed dragons. As for how we killed them and why we killed them, that's none of your business."

……

While everyone was arguing.

There was also some new activity in the scene.

Night has driven away day.

Countless glittering stars hung in the sky, casting a faint light upon the dark world.

Below, Natsu, who was grilling a crocodile, seemed to sense some kind of impending danger.

He suddenly stood up from his seat, his wary gaze fixed on the sky!

Natsu's actions weren't necessarily overly cautious.

[It took him less than ten seconds to stand up.]

The wind howling from the sky extinguished Natsu's campfire.

[And amidst the howling wind, there were also roars that could shake the very soul!]
