Hades simply stretched out one hand and completely blocked Natsu's flames. Hades, who was in the midst of the flames, was not harmed at all, and instead prepared to taunt Natsu.
You mean... the power of Fairy Tail?
"If that's all the power you have... it's still lacking..." Hades's mocking words were cut short as several more attacks came from behind.
He could clearly sense a sudden surge in the Magic Power of the people opposite him, and the attacks that followed were also quite fierce, drawing his attention to the girl on his left who was casting Enchantment Magic.
"Increase everyone's Magic attack power, defense power, and speed."
"Arms, armor, power!"
As Wendy cast her Magic, a blue Magic Circle passed through everyone, instantly boosting their Magic Power significantly.
"Lightning Dragon's Crushing Fist - Modified"
"Ice Make: Ice Sword - Modified"
Laxus and Gray used their swift speed to rush behind Hades, their fists and swords imbued with Armament Haki, attacking from the left and right respectively.
Hades immediately dodged the attacks to the left and right, as if his direction of evasion was being sensed.
Two ranged attacks from Freed and Bickslow blocked all his escape routes, and he immediately prepared to jump upwards to escape the attack range.
"Just what I've been waiting for! Haha!" Gajeel's voice came from above.
"A real man should forge ahead!" Beast King Elfman clenched his fists, covered them with Armament Haki, and raised them high.
"And me, open it! The Gate of the Celestial Bull — Taurus!"
Taurus also appeared above Gajeel and Elfman, raising his iron axe and striking down with the same force as Gajeel. With the amplification of strength, the three of them greatly increased their attack power.
Hades was taken aback by their perfect teamwork. He crossed his arms to block, but because he had no foothold, he was blasted into the bottom of the ship. Laxus and Gray's attacks followed.
It struck Hades squarely, and the iceberg appeared before everyone's eyes, crackling with electricity.
The crowd did not let their guard down; on the contrary, they became even more serious and cautious.
Suddenly, countless black Chains broke through the iceberg's blockade and grabbed directly at the group.
The crowd was startled and immediately scattered, nimbly dodging the chains' attacks. It should be noted that Zorn's Chains were even faster, and they had managed to dodge them once or twice before.
Not to mention such speed; with the help of Observation Haki, there's nowhere to hide.
"Fairy Machine Gun" Evergreen leaped into the air, swinging her arm to unleash a barrage of Magic Power concentrated needle-like projectiles that precisely struck the joints of the Chains.
"Evergreen!" Elfman caught Evergreen as she fell and placed her on his shoulder.
Surprisingly, such close cooperation did not cause them any damage.
"Clap clap!"
"So this is your teamwork? Barely acceptable, but it showed me your true abilities!"
Unfortunately, it's still not enough!
Hades emerged from the smoke, clapping his hands and expressing his admiration for Fairy Tail's battle, though he suddenly let out a sigh of regret.
"Now it's my turn to fight back!"
After Hades finished speaking, countless black energy spheres filled the space behind him and shot away instantly. At that moment, a clear, cold voice suddenly came from behind Hades.
"Really! Don't forget about me!" Cana suddenly appeared behind Hades.
A highly concentrated energy condensed on that jet-black, purplish fist, and a dangerous aura suddenly locked onto Hades.
"What? When?!" Hades exclaimed, immediately placing his right hand on the eyepatch over his right eye.
A punch landed squarely on Hades' waist, the booming sound echoing all around. The entire ship instantly shattered into pieces, causing a section of the coastline to collapse as well.
The dark Magic Power orbs were instantly Crash by the aftershocks.
Smoke billowed up.
The resulting storm allowed Natsu and his friends to use its force to escape the area.
After finishing her attack, Cana jumped away and landed steadily next to Laxus and the others.
"Haha, we did it!" Lucy and Wendy clapped and celebrated happily.
"Success?"
"People like to call their mistakes 'experience'! Being arrogant is a mistake in itself, let alone overestimating oneself by opposing Hades!"
"Those of you who have made mistakes will have no future!" Hades slowly stood up from the ground, wiped the blood from his mouth, his hair was now a mess, and his clothes were tattered, leaving only strips of cloth.
But his momentum grew stronger with each word, and he even shouted at the distant Tenrou Tree, "If you continue to watch the show, the consequences will be beyond your control!"
The roar carried an imposing aura that directly pressured everyone, while Laxus also unleashed powerful Magic Power to resist Hades's oppressive presence.
"This Magic Power..."
"Cana's attack was approved by Gildarts, how could it be..."
Lucy was the first to disbelieve it; she knew how terrifying that attack was, and the devastated surroundings also reflected the extent of Cana's attack.
Moreover, Hades' Magic Power was constantly increasing at this moment.
"You bunch of brats are truly remarkable! Makarov actually managed to raise such terrifying brats!"
"The last time I was beaten this badly was decades ago!"
"Demon Eye, open!"
His right eye snapped open instantly, the seal was completely broken, and all the dark Magic Power surged out, instantly shrouding the entire airship and the shore in darkness.
"Let me show you the abyss of Magic Way cultivation!"
After Hades finished speaking, he glanced deeply in the direction of the Tenrou Tree. Seeing that there was still no action, he snorted coldly and increased his Magic Power again, as if he would no longer hold back.
"What kind of pose is that?" Gray exclaimed in surprise as Hades suddenly struck a strange pose.
Black smoke slowly rose from the rubble on the ground.
"The Book of Zeref - Chapter 4, Section 12: The Hidden Magic - Divine Punishment"
As Hades chanted the incantation, countless demons emerged from the rubble, each glaring at the Fairy Tail members with powerful Magic Power and murderous intent.
Makarov, Tenrou Tree, was about to rush forward when a voice stopped him. "Guild Master, don't worry, with me here, no one can hurt them!"
"I'm all prepared! Don't worry."
After Zorn finished speaking, he immediately transmitted the image above the clouds to Makarov and several S-Class Mages' minds.
The golden dragon churning in the clouds was circling around the soon-to-be-formed Lightning Dragon, ready at any moment.
This terrifying Magic Power immediately startled several S-Class Mages, who looked at Zorn as if he were Monster.
The members of Fairy Tail huddled together, their eyes serious but without a trace of fear. They recalled their Guild Master's words, "With your comrades by your side, you have nothing to worry about, because we are never alone."
"Oh, so they actually have the guts to face it head-on. However, in the face of absolute power, everything else is insignificant!"
Hades said in a cold voice.
"Earth Demon, charge! Destroy everything in your path!" Hades immediately ordered.
A beam of energy condensed from the demon's mouth.
"Let's go too! This won't end here!"
"We are Fairy Tail!"
The crowd shouted, their emotions surging, and the Fairy Tail crest responded to them, radiating a hopeful light.
"This is all our Magic Power, gathered together, unleashing our full power!"
The group exchanged glances and nodded.
Lucy touched the keychain at her waist, gripping it tightly as she whispered, "Everyone, please, help me!"
The Celestial Spirit's light shone brightly, as if in response to Lucy.
"Eighty-Eight Celestial Stars..."
"Fire Dragon's Roar"
"The Iron Dragon's Roar"
"The Sky Dragon's Roar"
"S-Class Magic - Lightning Dragon's Strike" Laxus communicated with the Lightning Dragon in the sky.
"ICEMake - War God Spear"
How is this possible? How could these Magic be... Unison Raid... impossible...
Hades was incredulous, but he harbored a secret and glanced furtively at the wrecked airship behind him.
The Magic Power in my hands kept gathering, I possessed endless Magic Power, I would never lose.
Clearly, they intend to join forces with the demons to deal with the people before them.
What he didn't know was...
"Juvia, is this the place?"
"Yes, yes, this is it..."
Lisanna and Jubian had already quietly slipped into the ship with the current.
