Eleven vs. Natsu

"Eleven! Let's duel!"

Eleven had just been chased downstairs by Makarov when he heard Natsu's loud voice, and then he remembered that he had indeed promised Natsu that he would fight him.

"Hey idiot, are you crazy?!" Gray, who was just glaring at Natsu, was also taken aback by Natsu's sudden outrageous move and couldn't help but remind him.

You should know that Eleven is known as Great Demon King. Although Gray is also very ambitious, he rarely dares to challenge Eleven -on-one. Only a reckless girl like Erza would go looking for trouble every day.

However, Natsu is clearly also that kind of hothead, the kind who can't stand not being beaten up!

"Let's have a showdown, Eleven!" Ignoring Gray's well-intentioned reminder, Natsu rolled up his sleeves and pounced on Eleven.

"Huh? Natsu, we just got back. Can't we rest for a couple of days?"

Eleven scratched his head in confusion, then used his Telekinesis to suspend Natsu, who was going all out, in mid-air, before turning to discuss the matter with him.

"No way! I'm going to challenge you to a duel right now, and I'm sure I'll beat you!"

Natsu, suspended in the air, was full of enthusiasm and confidence, constantly spouting wild words, seemingly completely unaware that he had actually been subdued by Eleven.

"Fine, let's go fight outside then. I'll just get yelled at by the old man again if we stay in the guild."

With a sigh, Eleven sensed Natsu's determination. Just like Erza, this matter wouldn't end until he was beaten half to death.

"Oh! Let's get started already, I can't wait!" Natsu exclaimed excitedly in mid-air.

The guild members, who had been bored all along, eagerly followed suit. Although Natsu had already lost before the battle even started and was being led around by Eleven like a balloon, they figured they might as well watch Eleven bully the newbies since they were bored anyway.

Especially Gray, that little bitch, he's even more impatient than Natsu, he can't wait to see Natsu get beaten up and lose his memory!

Finally, I'll have someone to beat up and lose my memory with! I'm so happy!

"Come on, Natsu, give it your all!" Eleven beckoned to Natsu, indicating that they could begin.

"Oh! Here I come! Take this, Fire Dragon's Iron Fist!"

Without hesitation, Natsu clashed his fists together in front of his chest, instantly igniting a raging fire. This fire was no ordinary flame; when attached to Natsu's fists, it added a touch of power to his seemingly ordinary attack.

However, no matter how special the flames were, they were useless. As Eleven watched Natsu rush over, he even had the leisure to yawn, slightly turn his body, and stretch out his leg.

Splat!

The aggressive Natsu and fell flat on his face before he could even touch Eleven's clothes, the flames on his fist hitting the ground and going out with a whoosh.

Under Eleven's Spiritual Power surveillance, Natsu's reckless fighting style was full of flaws, so it would be a miracle if it had any outstanding effect.

Eleven had initially held some hope for Natsu, after all, he was also a Dragon Slayer, and might be surprisingly strong.

However, the result was disappointing; not all Dragon Slayers are Laxus, as expected.

Natsu is only on par with Gray. No wonder they always dislike each other; they're just weaklings fighting.

"Natsu, you can't do this. You'll probably have a hard time even taking down Gray!" Eleven tilted his head and teased Natsu, who was lying on the ground.

"Hmph!" A cold snort came from among the onlookers.

Gray, who was just watching the drama unfold, was caught in the crossfire and immediately became annoyed. Lately, that Eleven had been using him as a unit of measurement for combat strength, always saying that everyone else could take on several Grays. What did that mean? That's incredibly disrespectful!

Despite his displeasure, Eleven's assessment of everyone was quite fair, leaving Gray unable to refute it. He could only express his dissatisfaction with a haughty snort all day long, but whether it was effective or not was no one's concern.

"Don't compare me to that underwear pervert! This isn't over yet, Fire Dragon's Claw!"

Natsu was lying on the ground, suddenly rolled over, and flames burst from his feet. He then executed a backflip kick, his scorching feet aimed straight for Eleven's chin.

Eleven wasn't surprised. His Telekinesis Shield blocked the heat wave from the flames, and he easily dodged Natsu's sneak attack by stepping back. He also reached out and grabbed Natsu's ankle before he could pull back his strength.

"Whoa! This fire is really hot!" Even with the protection of his Telekinesis, Eleven's hand holding Natsu's ankle still felt the scorching heat of the flames.

Left with no other choice, Eleven had to throw Natsu away again; the guy was too hot.

"Hehe!" Natsu, who had been thrown out, became smug again when he saw that his flames actually worked on Eleven. He ignited flames in his hands again, full of fighting spirit.

"Take this! Fire Dragon's Wing Attack!"

Two streams of flame were released from Natsu's arms, spreading out in the air like dragon wings, and lashing out at Eleven.

Natsu had his own plan in mind. Since he couldn't hit her in close combat anyway, and since fire was effective against Eleven, he might as well use a wide-area fire attack. Maybe he could win directly. How clever of me!

However, Eleven did not grant Natsu's wish. Now that he knew the temperature of the flames would affect him, Eleven naturally wouldn't let the flames get close. A large surge of Telekinesis erupted out, and with a sudden wave like a banana leaf fan, he directly extinguished Natsu's small, thin flame dragon wings.

"Uh..." Natsu was also a little stunned when he saw this.

Eleven, on the other hand, raised an eyebrow at Natsu in a very smug way, his face full of pride.

"Damn it, I won't lose!" Natsu yelled in anger.

"Fire Dragon's Horn!... Iron Fist!... Wing Attack!..."

Natsu roared and began circling around Eleven with all sorts of attacks. Eleven, being challenged by Natsu for the first time, was still excited and happy to play along for a while, parrying each move and managing to put up a good fight.

Grey, Elsa, and the others watching were green with envy. It had been a long time since Elvin had fought with them like this. He was always extremely impatient and rough, which was excessive!

A cloud of dust blew by, Natsu was once again flung away by Eleven, crashing heavily to the ground.

Seeing that Natsu couldn't stand up properly for a long time, Eleven's S-spirit couldn't be contained any longer, and he teased Natsu with a laugh, "Oh, Natsu, you're already done? Hehe, admit defeat, you're still a long way from beating me!"

"I didn't lose!" Upon hearing this, Natsu seemed to be provoked and once again shakily got up from the ground.

"Eleven, I will definitely defeat you, and Erza, Gray, Gildarts too!"

"I will defeat you all and become the strongest mage!"
