From now on, Space Magic is forbidden in this area!

"No, look!"

Gray was the first to notice the anomaly; he pointed to the massive, moving weapon in the distance, his expression grave.

"The areas damaged by Jiang Bai are already being repaired."

Upon hearing this, everyone looked over and indeed saw that the huge gap in the Nirvana Cannon was being covered by a black magical power.

Countless granulation-like tissues are growing and wriggling rapidly, attempting to fill the gap again.

"Indeed," Lyon said, his brow furrowed.

"And this self-repair speed is not slow at all."

At this moment, Brain, inside Nirvana, was suffering the most.

"Damn it!" He stared at the repair progress feedback from the magic crystal, his face turning ashen.

"If we let him continue to cause this destruction, even if Nirvana can repair itself, it won't last long!"

"Midnight!" he commanded his son beside him.

"Go stop that guy! We absolutely cannot let him sabotage anything anymore. We must hold out until Nirvana launches!"

"Yes, Father."

Midnight, who had been resting with his eyes closed, slowly opened them. He sat on his flying carpet, and his figure instantly disappeared from the control room.

Meanwhile, Jiang Bai had already brought Wendy and Carla to Erza and the others.

Is everyone alright?

"Wendy!" Lucy exclaimed in surprise when she saw Wendy.

Seeing the various injuries on everyone's bodies, Wendy immediately ran over, her hands glowing with a soft green light.

"Sky Dragon's Healing!"

Under Wendy's powerful healing magic, everyone's injuries healed at a visible speed, and they were soon back to normal. They just needed to wait for the consumed magic power to slowly replenish itself.

"Thank you, Wendy, I'm saved." Erza patted Wendy's head.

"Where's Natsu?" Jiang Bai looked around but couldn't find the pink-haired figure.

Erza pointed somewhat helplessly to the huge moving weapon in the distance. "He and Happy ran onto Nirvana."

That idiot!

Jiang Bai sighed, closed his eyes, and instantly locked his mental energy onto Natsu, who was lying on Nirvana's back due to motion sickness.

The next second, he raised his hand and gently grasped at the void.

Natsu and Happy appeared out of thin air in front of everyone, then fell to the ground with a "thud".

"Ugh~" Having just been teleported back, Natsu hadn't even figured out what was going on when he started gagging again.

Having resolved this minor problem, Jiang Bai was preparing to continue his unfinished "destructive" work, completely dismantling that obstructive giant target so he could quickly complete his mission and go home.

But at that moment, a strange spatial fluctuation suddenly appeared beside Lucy and the others, as if it were about to distort and tear that space apart.

Jiang Bai frowned, then with a backhand wave, another, even more powerful spatial force swept over, instantly smoothing out the fluctuation.

A figure appeared silently before everyone; it was Midnight riding a flying carpet.

"Great, you're all together now," Midnight said, looking at them with a lazy smile.

"That way, I won't have to run around to them one by one anymore."

"Jiang Bai, be careful!" Erza immediately stepped in front of Jiang Bai, her expression grave as she warned him.

"He uses Distortion Magic; he can distort space!"

"Space, huh..." Jiang Bai looked at the Midnight before him, a playful smile on his face.

"That's... awful."

Midnight clearly misunderstood Jiang Bai's meaning; he thought Jiang Bai that he himself would suffer a terrible fate.

After all, his Distortion Magic could ignore all physical defenses and even directly distort space itself to attack enemies.

While it cannot directly distort living beings, distorting their equipment or the surrounding space can still cause fatal damage.

In his view, Jiang Bai's so-called "Infinity" was utterly insignificant in front of him.

"Let me test your mettle," Midnight casually swung his hand, "Air Blade!"

The invisible wind blades flew towards Jiang Bai, but the moment they approached Jiang Bai's body, they were blocked by an invisible barrier and dissipated into nothingness.

"As expected, this level of attack is completely useless against you."

Midnight was not surprised at all; on the contrary, an expression of excitement appeared on his face.

"I hope you can catch the next move too."

"I said, are you mistaken about something?" Jiang Bai looked at him as if he were an idiot.

"Catch it? Do you think you can still use Space Magic in front of me?"

"Empty Town!"

As soon as the words were spoken, Erza and the others didn't feel anything special, except that the air around them seemed to have become a little heavier.

Midnight, who was preparing to launch an attack, froze completely with a smile.

"Nonsense," he suppressed his unease, pointed at Jiang Bai with one hand, and unleashed his most prized magic.

"Pain Spiral!"

This move can forcibly distort the space around the target into a spiral vortex, continuously squeezing and tearing the enemy until they are reduced to minced meat.

However, as he pointed his finger forward, the anticipated spatial distortion did not occur at all.

The surrounding space was as still as a stagnant pool.

"What's going on? Why didn't my magic activate?"

For the first time, a look of horror appeared on Midnight's face. He could feel his magic surging forth, and the spell had indeed been cast.

"No, it's magic that's been activated, but I... can't distort this space! What on earth did you do?!"

Midnight Ye asked incredulously.

Jiang Bai shrugged and said in a matter-of-fact tone, "It's nothing, I just suppressed this space."

"From this moment forward, Space Magic is prohibited in this area!"

"Of course, besides me."
