"Sea King Armor!" came a sharp shout.
Erza quickly changed into a mermaid outfit, her ears turning into fin-like shapes, and her body was green with unique armor adorned with fins.
At this moment, her Magic Power created a strong affinity with water molecules, bringing all the moisture in the surrounding air under her control.
Each attack was accompanied by a large amount of water element, forming a powerful offensive.
"Water?" Ajeel was taken aback at first, but then he was slightly surprised to see Erza Requip so quickly.
After all, the previous attack had not yet ended, and in the next moment, Erza's appearance and Magic Power elements had completely changed, and the transition was seamless and perfectly connected.
This precise control over Magic Power is truly astonishing.
"This kind of thing is useless against me!" Ajeel sneered, leaped into the air, and easily dodged Erza's attack.
He clenched his fist, and a large amount of sand instantly surged into the surrounding environment, absorbing all the water that Erza had summoned.
"What? Is the Magic Power being restricted?" Erza frowned. With her keen senses, she noticed that the sand was continuously absorbing the Magic Power escaping from the air.
"Turn into layers of sand and wither away~" Ajeel's gaze sharpened, and he said with a cold laugh.
Haha~
As she exerted force, more and more sand gathered around her, surging wildly towards Erza.
Erza stopped struggling, and with a flick of her wrist, the Demon Sword Red Tassel appeared in her hand, her gaze unusually sharp.
However, Ajeel was caught up in his maniacal laughter and didn't notice.
Those who landed in the distance saw this scene and shouted, "Mr. Ichiya!" Among them, Hibiki noticed Erza's condition and called out anxiously.
However, Yi Ye calmly replied, "I know, but we need to deal with the enemy in front of us first!" After saying that, he threw a punch without hesitation, the powerful force of which directly knocked back the attacking Karim.
Faced with the enemy's attack, Yi Ye remained resolute and showed no sign of backing down.
At that moment, Karim waved his hand, and a black substance surged rapidly towards the night, saying firmly, "Team Ajeel, Karim, begin the mission!"
He leaped up and dodged the attack. "Fight seriously! Leave that one to Erza, she's the Titania!"
Despite the dire situation, they believed that Fairy Tail could defeat the enemy and protect the city.
On the other side
"Oh~ someone from Fairy Tail?"
Brandish μ sat on a tree stump in a Borderlands forest, slightly raised his eyelids to see the person who had come, and said softly.
Indeed, war is a troublesome affair. She wouldn't have come if the Emperor hadn't given the order.
"I... I've been assigned to one of the Holy Shield?" Lucy's eyes narrowed, and she immediately assumed a fighting stance, but her body began to tremble slightly.
Although her strength has greatly improved, she is still no match for an existence that surpasses one of the Ten Wizard Saints, and that immense, overwhelming Magic Power.
Moreover, it's no longer a matter of the level of Magic Power.
The instinctive trembling in my body was still somewhat uncontrollable.
"Lucy ~ Don't worry! I'm here!" Cana slowly walked in front of Lucy, tied her hair back into a single ponytail, and then countless cards flew and swirled around her waist.
He shielded Lucy from that terrifying pressure.
"Brandish, we have to do something, or we'll have a hard time explaining ourselves!"
"We must produce some results, don't you think, Brandish?"
Marin waved his hands around Brandish.
Although it was very obsequious, he still dutifully offered his advice.
As a subordinate, he had to work hard, otherwise, if Lord Consul Invel found out, he wouldn't get away with it.
"No, I'm tired. I want to eat Starry Night Ice Cream now..." Brandish sat lazily on the tree stump, her eyes filled with longing for food, as if she no longer had the energy to fight.
Hearing how her subordinates addressed her, Cana's heart skipped a beat.
I was instantly reminded of the woman Zorn had once mentioned, the one who could change the shape and size of any object.
Her spirits lifted, and she focused all her attention on Brandish, clutching a card tightly in her hand, ready to strike at any moment.
At the same time, Lucy took a deep breath, tried to calm herself down, and gripped the key at her waist tightly.
However, her action caught Brandish's attention.
"Hmm~" Brandish softly.
Then her gaze fell on Lucy, and her eyes inadvertently caught sight of the golden keys.
"Celestial Spirit Mage?" Brandish μ's lips curled up slightly, a barely perceptible glint flashing in his eyes.
Wave~
Brandish snapped his fingers.
"Watch out!" Cana shouted, her finger instantly producing a card that enveloped the two of them in Defensive Magic.
However, the two were still shocked by what they saw.
The once vast forest has completely vanished.
No... it didn't disappear, it just shrank.
All that remained on the ground were tiny, toothpick-like objects, densely packed together.
Seeing this eerie scene, a sense of unease welled up in the hearts of the two.
They had heard about the abilities of each of the Twelve Holy Shields, and their terrifying Magic Power, yet they could easily shrink the entire forest.
That's truly terrifying.
Brandish, however, appeared quite calm, seemingly confident in his Magic.
"Even with that shield of light formed from some unknown substance protecting you two, you're still like ants to me!"
As he spoke, he pulled a very small tree from the ground, and in the blink of an eye, it became like a feather duster. He stood up and dusted off his cloak.
Lucy and Cana stared intently at Brandish.
"This woman is indeed... It seems it's time." Cana's gaze sharpened, then she waved her hand, and countless cards gradually gathered together, the light of Magic Power beginning to echo throughout the space.
"In that case, I'll use all my strength too!" Cana took a deep breath.
As she finished speaking, the card's Magic Power light intensified, rushing towards Cana.
"I've been accumulating Magic Power for this day, and I've even specially treated all the cards so they can absorb the Magic Power I release every day. It's all to prepare for the day when I encounter an invincible enemy."
Cana's eyes were resolute, bathed in light, and her voice revealed boundless determination.
"There's one more!"
"Armament Haki fully unleashed!"
Cana a loud shout, all the Magic Power contained within the card rushed towards Cana's body, and Armament Haki enveloped her entire being.
Her body was covered in dark purple patterns, and her aura instantly soared to its peak.
The sheer power she carried shattered the ground, causing Lucy to hastily retreat, staring at Cana in shock, her eyes filled with disbelief.
Like a Valkyrie.
"Oh, interesting! Well then, playing a game with you guys wouldn't hurt!" Brandish he looked at Cana's expression.
It's rare to encounter such a formidable opponent outside the empire, one that she has to take seriously.
So she decided to personally take to the field and fight him, treating it as a bit of fun in a troublesome situation.
"Lucy, I'll leave that one to you." Cana smiled and turned to Lucy, while slowly withdrawing her terrifying aura into her body.
This scene made Brandish's gaze freeze again, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but turn up slightly. Because Cana's control over her power was so precise, she realized that the Woman in front of her was no ordinary person.
"Okay, I'll take care of it!" Lucy gripped the key tightly and replied firmly!
"Marin, you should have some fun with that Celestial Spirit Mage!" Brandish gave the order directly.
Upon hearing this, Marin immediately sprang to his feet, saluted respectfully, and replied, "Hi!"
