"Erza, whom I once loved so deeply, offer your body for my ideals!"
Before anyone knew it, Jellal had appeared above the large ship.
Erza conjured two Daoist Swords and charged forward.
"Jellal, you damned bastard, lie down!"
"This magic is even stronger than Jose's; it's definitely at the level of the Ten Wizard Saints!"
George frowned immediately. He had guessed that Jellal would be strong, but he hadn't expected him to be even stronger Jose he had fought last time.
Last time they fought Jose, it took all the mages in the guild ganging up on him to win, and Natsu even had to take the Fiendfyre to deplete a lot of Joseph's magic power.
"Attack together!"
Erza alone was no match for him, so George spread his wings and charged forward, with Natsu, Gray, and Juvia close behind.
Simon and the others were injured and unable to help, so Lucy took out the Aquarius Celestial Spirit Key.
"You guys?"
A hint of disdain appeared on Zeref's face, and with a flash, he disappeared into the air.
"Meteor!"
"It didn't disappear, it just moved too fast."
George, with his extraordinary visual perception, saw Jellal enveloped in a layer of starlight, his speed increasing as if he were a shooting star.
First, they dodged Erza's strongest sword technique that would destroy Ikaruga, then each of them kicked Natsu and Gray down.
However, when he attacked Juvia managed to dodge by turning his body into water in time.
"Seven Star Sword!"
Seven stars appeared behind Jellal and slammed into Juvia, who had turned into water, with the force of thunder Juvia, who had dodged the physical attack, was directly knocked into the sea by this True Magic attack.
"Super Electromagnetic Cannon!"
A coin carrying a massive electric current shot towards Jellal's back.
The moment he saw Jellal's move, George also made his move.
"This kind of attack can't hurt me."
Jellal turned around and, with Riot Games enveloped in starlight, shattered the Railgun with a single punch, then transformed into a streak of light and charged towards George.
"A level four Railgun is still too weak for Ten Wizard Saints mage."
If it were Misaka Mikoto's three-times Supersonic Railgun, Jellal probably wouldn't dare to take it directly with his Riot Games.
"Change!"
Jellal was too fast, and apart from the Railgun, other True Magic had difficulty hitting him. So George's body directly emerged from Magic Circle, transforming from a palm-sized golden kitten into a giant cat ten meters tall.
"Electrical Stimulation!"
Not content with growing larger, he stimulated every cell in his body with Two Hundred Million Volts of electricity, raising his physical strength and speed to a whole new level.
"Get out of my way!"
The cat's paw, as big as a millstone and crackling with electricity, slammed down on Jellal, who was charging at him.
With fists and claws clashing, George ultimately prevailed, sending Jellal flying.
"Go!"
At the same time, he commanded blades to strangle Jellal, who had been knocked away.
When facing a Wizard of the Ten Wizard Saints Rank, you can't hold back at all; you have to go all out to have any chance of winning.
"Open, Gate of Aquarius, Aquarius!"
Below, on the high seas, Lucy also planted her Golden Celestial Spirit Keys in the ocean.
A blue Magic Circle rose, Merpeople Aquarius, holding a True Magic bottle, roared furiously, her veins bulging:
"You brat, you've interrupted my date again! You can all just die!"
With a terrifying burst of magical power comparable to that of a typical S-Class Mage, the water in the True Magic bottle carried a large amount of seawater, forming a tsunami that swept towards the falling Jellal.
"Huh?"
The terrible tsunami not only swept through Jellal, but also took the large ship carrying Natsu, Gray, Juvia, Lucy, and others who Enter Water with it.
It truly is an indiscriminate, large-scale attack.
"Giant Armor! Spear of Evil Banishing!"
Erza, having evaded Jellal's attack, donned the strongest Giant armor and unleashed her spear, designed to shatter all evil, at Jellal, who was being swept away by the sea.
"That's interesting. I'll play with you guys for a while."
Despite facing a multi-faceted attack that would be fatal to an ordinary S-Class Mage, Jellal did not show any sign of panic.
He crossed his arms, and a black Magic Circle immediately rose up.
"Fall into endless darkness, Darkness Paradise!"
A Black Hole seemed capable of swallowing everything appeared in an instant, swallowing up countless sharp blades, seawater, and Giant spears, before exploding with a deafening Black Hole.
The powerful Havok blasted George, Erza, Aquarius, Lucy, and many others away.
"Ice-Make, Grand Platform!"
White Magic Circle lit up in the seawater, and a huge ice platform immediately spread out on the surface of the sea, catching everyone who was shaken apart. It Gray had recovered and used ice True Magic.
"Damn, that's strong."
George returned to his normal size and landed on the ice, unable to resist swearing.
So many S-Class Mage ganged up on him, yet he broke through with a single True Magic. It was even more terrifying than Jose last time.
"Let me tell you a secret that will make you despair: the guild leader Jose, whom your entire guild worked so hard to defeat, is ranked lower than one of my Thought Body among the Ten Wizard Saints."
Oh, I forgot to tell you, the reason the Magic Council activated the Magic of the Spirit is because I created a manifestation of my Thought Body called Zikrain. You should have heard of that name before.
"Zikrain!"
George's pupils contracted upon hearing this.
Of course he knew the name; one of the renowned Ten Wizard Saints, the youngest of the Ten Wizard Saints, and also a member of the Magic Council Headquarters, but no photos of him had ever surfaced.
Unexpectedly, it was merely a Thought Body of Jellal.
Thought Body is a very profound True Magic that can only be learned by top-tier S-Class Mage. It is very difficult, but also very practical.
It can create a real Body Division, which can possess up to half of its own strength, and can be recalled at any time regardless of distance.
If Thought Body with only half the power is already ranked above Jose, then Jellal at his full power must be incredibly terrifying.
"Don't forget, people's abilities can improve!"
While Jellal was caught up in the villain's tendency to die from talking too much, George used Telepathy to notify Natsu to come over and began pouring Fiendfyre into his Barry.
After the battle with Phantom Lord, everyone's strength has increased, especially Natsu. Due to the extreme feeding of Fiendfyre, he seems to have unlocked some special power, and his body's ability to withstand Fiendfyre has been greatly enhanced.
"Oh, progress? Then I'll show you what a gap really is!"
Standing atop the floating Celestial Magic circle, Jellal laughed wildly, his magical power surging so violently that it distorted the surrounding air.
"True Celestial Magic - Star Collapse!"
A massive Magic Circle rose above his head, and a huge meteorite, trailing endless flames, crashed down upon everyone below.
A meteorite falling from the sky can easily turn a city to ashes with a single blow.
