Erza followed closely behind, then suddenly stomped her foot, propelling herself into the air like an arrow, and let out a loud shout:
"Requip - Heaven's Wheel Armor!"
In an instant, a magnificent Heaven's Wheel Armor, shimmering with a mysterious light, covered her body.
Wearing this armor, Erza sped towards the shore at an astonishing speed.
Just as she passed by Irene, Erza glanced at her briefly, but after that one instant of eye contact, she pushed off again, stomping heavily in the air and accelerating forward like lightning.
Irene never even glanced at Erza once, yet the barely perceptible smile on her lips was clearly visible, as if that was enough.
The Belief in fighting for one's comrades truly moved her; the emotional embrace made her rediscover the feeling of being human.
Immediately afterwards, Irene turned her head and turned her gaze to the many dragons that were besieging Acnologia.
She gripped the Scepter tightly in both hands, then slammed it forcefully into the ground.
In an instant, an incomparably powerful red Magic Power shot straight into the sky like a volcanic eruption.
As Irene's incantation rang out:
"Additional - All-Attribute Enhancement!"
"Additional Magic Power!"
The dragons, led by Igneel, immediately felt the Magic Power within their bodies surge like a mighty river, flowing endlessly.
Their power was greatly enhanced, and they began to roar with extremely high energy.
With a series of roars, the dragons launched a fierce attack on Acnologia, who was surrounded in the center.
Suddenly, a deafening roar came.
A roar~
His agonizing screams, like the howls of a demon from the deepest hell, echoed around us, sending chills down our spines and making our scalps tingle.
With that terrifying roar, Acnologia crashed to the ground like a meteor.
The moment he made contact with the ground, the earth trembled violently, billowing dust and scattering debris.
"This is terrible! The world will be destroyed, whether it's dragons or humans!!" Acnologia roared.
The moment he struggled to his feet, bursts of indescribably powerful energy erupted from his body, instantly distorting and deforming the surrounding space.
Immediately afterwards, dazzling beams of light materialized out of thin air, containing earth-shattering power, and swept wildly towards the sky and in all directions.
Meanwhile, seeing this, August, on the other side, looked grave and slammed his Scepter into the ground without hesitation.
In an instant, a transparent light shield rose in front of everyone standing behind him. This light shield had the same properties as the protective shield that Zorn had cast earlier, and was extremely tough, capable of withstanding most attacks.
The light barrier rapidly expanded, enveloping everyone tightly and forming an impenetrable defensive line.
The already softened ground now seemed to come alive, stretching out countless enormous hands that gripped his body tightly.
Before he could react, August unleashed a powerful Gravity Field skill without any mercy.
With a low shout from August, an invisible pressure, like a mountain, pressed down on Acnologia.
With a loud "boom," most of Acnologia's body, which had just managed to break free, was instantly forced into the ground.
He struggled desperately, but the gravity was so strong that Acnologia was momentarily stunned by the blast.
But with a sudden flap of its wings and its Dragon Claws digging deep into the ground, it slowly rose to its feet.
"Oh~ No wonder he's known as the Dragon of the Apocalypse!" August raised an eyebrow, and red and black Magic Power surged forth, causing the Gravity Field to crash down once again.
Just then, seeing the critical situation, Larcade unhesitatingly clasped his hands together, chanted incantations, and unleashed his most proficient Desire Magic.
In an instant, a mysterious and powerful force erupted from his body, surging towards Acnologia like a torrent.
However, in just a moment, a thick layer of sweat appeared on Larcade's forehead, clearly indicating that casting this Magic was not an easy task for him.
Surprisingly, as the Desire Magic took effect, Acnologia, who had been struggling violently, gradually reduced the extent of his movements.
Anna, upon seeing this, couldn't help but exclaim in amazement:
"To think that such powerful Enchantment Magic could be cast on a dragon!"
"Moreover, this man unleashed a series of incredibly powerful Magic in one go!"
Anna stared at Irene and August, her heart filled with shock.
It seems they finally understood just how powerful Zorn was, holding his own against two opponents and relentlessly suppressing them.
Meanwhile, the dragons in the sky, including Igneel, once again gathered extremely high energy, aiming at Acnologia below. This time, they were determined to eliminate Acnologia.
In another Time Rift, there was a group of people including Zorn, Natsu, Gajeel, Wendy, Laxus, and Erik.
Their gazes were fixed on Acnologia ahead, and each of them burned with fierce fighting spirit.
"Oh? You actually dared to trespass here! That's quite courageous! But it seems I'll have to give you a proper explanation!!"
Acnologia's deep, hoarse voice, as if emanating from the deepest abyss, echoed continuously in this empty space, sending chills down one's spine.
"Why am I called the Dragon King?!" With this roar, Acnologia suddenly raised his head, and the intense killing intent emanating from his body instantly surged towards everyone like a surging tide.
"Tch~ Who cares about you!" Laxus scoffed dismissively, throwing a straight hook punch as he Teleportation in front of Acnologia and delivered the blow.
But it was grasped directly.
"Ha~ Let's go!!" Zorn shouted as he took Laxus's place, delivering another side kick to Acnologia's face.
"Oh~"
"Overall enhancement of all abilities! Bonus: God's Knight!!"
At the same time, the enormous dragon body outside raised its head and let out a deafening roar, instantly changing the color of the wind and clouds.
Acnologia perfectly fused the Time Power with the Dragon Slayer Power, and the energy rapidly spread in all directions.
An incredibly powerful energy was accumulating in his gaping maw, as if it were about to burst forth at any moment.
A deafening roar echoed through the heavens:
"Roar!" A shockwave, as black as ink yet mixed with dazzling white light, swept towards the five giant dragons in the sky with overwhelming force.
The five dragons opposite were not to be outdone. They roared in unison, and their five powers merged into an even stronger force to meet Acnologia's attack.
In an instant, the two collided violently, unleashing a deafening roar.
The powerful impact distorted the surrounding air, creating an extremely violent storm.
This storm was like a runaway beast, rampaging wildly in all directions, leaving behind a trail of sand and stones, and a scene of utter devastation.
