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

In an instant, the world changed color, and terrifying magical power began to dissipate.

Erza's adamantine armor was also crumbling inch by inch.

But Erza, true to form, actually withstood the magic cluster cannon, albeit at the cost of nearly losing her fighting ability.

[Although I was quite surprised that Fairy Tail actually had a mage like Erza who could withstand a magic cluster cannon.]

However, Joseph did not forget his purpose.

[It was immediately announced that the Magic Cluster Cannon would continue its reloading phase, and if Fairy Tail did not hand over Lucy within fifteen minutes, Jupiter would be released again.]

However, Fairy Tail's attitude was more resolute than expected!

"If we're going to betray our comrades, we'd rather die!"

This is Erza's response, and also the sentiment of all Fairy Tail members.

Joseph was enraged and immediately summoned thousands of magical soldiers.

[We want to completely destroy Fairy Tail.]

These magical soldiers possess the characteristic of immortality; simply put, as long as Joseph lives, the magical soldiers will continuously regenerate.

[And once touched by a magic soldier, their physical strength and magic power will be drained.]

[Ahead lay a vast array of magical soldiers, behind them lurked a cluster of magical cannons gathering their power.]

Fairy Tail seemed to have reached a dead end at this moment.

However, what guilds have in abundance are those who go against the tide.

The group decided to split up, with Natsu, Gray, Elfman, and the others going to destroy the magic cluster cannon.

[Kana and the other guild members stayed behind to protect the wounded, also taking care of them.]

As a key figure in this battle, Lucy was hidden away by Mirajane.

Although Lucy really wanted to fight alongside everyone.

However, she was forcibly taken away by Mirajane's sleep magic.

Meanwhile, Natsu and Happy encountered fire, one of the four elements, inside the Sharpening Knife Cluster Cannon.

This is a formidable opponent, but Natsu's combat talent is still very high.

[As the magic cluster cannon reached its final stage of firing, a deeper level of magical manipulation was achieved, destroying both the fire elemental bunny and Jupiter's core crystal.]

[This solved the immediate problem.]

Joseph, enraged by this, immediately activated the Magic Giant.

The so-called Magical Giant is actually the entire guild transformed into mechanical giants.

Furthermore, the giant is also wielding magic that is considered taboo even within the magical world: Purgatory Shatter.

Once completed, its power would be enough to raze half of Magnolia to the ground.

To stop the giant, Natsu, Gray, and the others decide to continue their journey deeper into Phantom Lord's guild to find a way to halt its advance.

The group split up and continued their journey.

Elfman first encountered his enemy, Thor, one of the four elements.

The two engaged in combat.

[Outside, Mirajane has used transformation magic to appear on the battlefield as Lucy and is demanding that Joseph stop.]

However, Joseph easily saw through this plan and arrested Mirajane in front of everyone.

[It was placed between the giant's fingers.]

This scene was clearly witnessed by Elfman, who was engaged in battle with Thor.

[Watching his sister about to be strangled to death.]

Elfman was on the verge of a breakdown.

[Those skilled at manipulating people and using this to suppress Elfman seized the opportunity to use sealing magic on Elfman, attempting to seal him within a stone.]

This seal seemed to transport Elfman back to his memories, back to the moment his sister, Lisanna, died.

Just like Mirajane right now!

Elfman could no longer bear the pain of losing a loved one.

And so, the long-dormant Beast King erupted.

The unprecedented immersion in his entire being gave Elfman unimaginable power.

[They defeated Thor without a doubt.]

They rescued their sister, but at the same time, they were surprised to find that the giants' movements slowed down after Thor's defeat.

Therefore, the two speculated that the giants' power source might originate from the four elements.

So, he informed the others.

Meanwhile, Gray also encountered Juvia, one of the four elements, the water element.

After a fierce battle, Gray emerged victorious.

Meanwhile, Natsu, who was wandering around inside the Phantom Troupe, was stopped by Aria, the leader of the Four Elements.

Natsu is having a hard time defeating the culprit who caused Makarov's magic to be depleted.

[In a very short time, it was already covered in wounds.]

[They even seized the opportunity to drain his magic power.]

At the last second, Erza arrived and kicked Aria away.

Perhaps out of wariness of Erza, Aria also used her full strength.

He ripped off his bandages, unleashing his immense magical power.

However, even when Erza is injured, she still shocks everyone when she gets serious!

With a single sword strike, he cleaved through Aria's deathly void.

[And, she instantly killed Aria!]

With this, all four elements have been defeated.

The shattering of Purgatory also ceased.

However, Lucy also encountered a major problem at the same time.

[Lucy and Lidasu's hiding place was discovered by Gajeel. Even Loki's timely arrival was to no avail; Lidasu and Loki were defeated instantly.]

Lucy has been arrested.

This news reached everyone's ears.

Joseph even boasted that he would annihilate the entire Fairy Tail clan.

To rescue Lucy, Natsu went to find Gajeel, but Erza, due to her severe injuries, stayed behind to rest.

However, Mirajane and the others found them quickly, but at the same time, the group that had just reunited also encountered Joseph.

Despair...begins to spread.

Natsu successfully located Gajeel, and the epic battle between the two Dragon Slayers began.

At the beginning, Natsu was on the defensive until Lucy, who was rescued by Happy, had a flash of inspiration and summoned the Celestial Spirit of Sagittarius, using arrows to create flames by shooting at the pipes.

[After Natsu replenished his stamina, he barely managed to defeat Gajeel.]

However, Natsu himself also lost his fighting ability.

At the same time, holy magic descended upon this battlefield.

[They even forced back Joseph's dark magic within the main hall, saving Erza and her companions.]

Feeling that familiar magic, countless people were involuntarily shocked.

That's Makarov's magic!

[The magic of Makarov, belonging to the Ten Wizard Saints!]

[It was magical energy collected by Mistongan, an S-rank mage from the same guild who rarely appears.]

Meanwhile, during this process, all the Phantom Lords' branches throughout the Kingdom of Fiore were wiped out one by one.

The culprits are Mistonhill and... Laxus!

Now, all that's left is Joseph, who will be facing off against Makarov.

The war has reached its final stage.

[The Ten Wizard Saints, a clash between the Ten Wizard Saints.]

This time, Makarov was not careless.

Makarov, unleashing his full firepower, terrified Joseph.

They were once on the defensive.

The difference in their perception of each other... was simply not on the same level.
