Train Station Hijacked

"You know what we Dark Guilds call people like you? Flies!"

"Take my Fly Fist!"

Natsu, sick from the Train ride, could not muster even a bit of strength. Kagayama pinned him to the floor and relentlessly battered him.

"Hey, hey, fight back already. Are all you Legal Guild people this weak?!"

Just then, the Train suddenly screeched to a halt. Caught off guard, the two of them were flung away.

"Boom!"

Natsu slowly got to his feet.

"Huh? We stopped?"

Having recovered, Natsu glared furiously at Kagayama.

"You bastard, die!"

"Iron Fist of the Fire Dragon!"

Seeing that the Train had stopped and that the previously feeble Natsu had suddenly come alive, Kagayama hurriedly cast his magic. Several black shadows appeared before him.

Kagayama watched in terror as Natsu charged toward him.

"Boom!!"

Natsu's furious punch broke through the shadowy defense and smashed into Kagayama's face, sending him flying into the next carriage.

A Flute with a skull on it flew out from Kagayama's body.

"Whooo~ whooo~ whooo~"

"Dear passengers, due to receiving incorrect information, this Train will be departing again shortly."

Natsu glanced at the Flute. The moment he heard that the Train was about to leave, he hurriedly grabbed his luggage and flipped himself out of the carriage.

Ye Yang and the others came speeding over in the Magic Carriage and soon spotted the Train they had just ridden.

"Great, we caught up!"

Just then, a figure leaped straight out of a window. The speeding vehicle had no time to brake and sent the figure flying.

Lucy panicked. "Oh no, oh no! We got into an accident! He isn't dead, is he?!"

Gray took a closer look and saw someone lying on the ground with his soul practically coming out of his mouth.

"Isn't that Natsu?!"

The moment Erza saw that it was Natsu, she ran over to him in concern.

"How could you sleep in a place like this? Do you have any idea how worried we were?!"

Lucy =_= "Didn't you just send him flying? A normal person would already be dead."

Erza then picked Natsu up and slammed him against her chest.

"Bang!"

"So hard!"

Seeing that Natsu was fine, Erza immediately resumed her stern expression.

"Alright, since Natsu is fine, let's continue!"

Rubbing his head, Natsu said, "What do you mean, fine? On the Train, some bastard from Iron something Forest kept pestering me."

The moment Erza heard that, she punched Natsu, who had just gotten up, back onto the ground.

"You idiot! Eisenwald is our target this time! Were you even listening to me in the carriage?!"

Lucy =_=: "Didn't you knock him out in the carriage?"

She then quietly asked Ye Yang, "Is Erza always like this?"

"Yes, so you should be more careful in the future."

"Got it."

Erza then began asking Natsu about the details of what had happened on the Train.

Natsu thought for a long time.

"I remember now. When I sent that bastard flying, I think a Flute fell out of him."

Erza asked in confusion, "A Flute?"

"What kind of Flute was it?"

"Emmmm, I think it was a Three-Eyed Skull Flute," Natsu recalled.

Upon hearing Natsu's description, everyone but Ye Yang looked confused. They had no similar impression in their minds at all.

Just then, Lucy suddenly remembered something.

"Lullaby, Curse Song—it's a death magic!"

Erza hurriedly asked, "Lucy, you know about this thing?!"

"Yeah! I saw the Flute Natsu described in that book I mentioned before. It's an extremely terrifying area-of-effect magic. As long as someone blows the Flute, everyone who hears it will be killed!"

Erza said angrily, "Damn it! What exactly is that Jellal bastard planning to do with this magic?!"

"The Train has already left. We have no choice but to keep chasing it!"

"Ye Yang, you're the fastest one here. Go intercept them!"

"Alright, got it."

"Whoosh!"

Ye Yang flashed with golden light and vanished from the spot.

Erza and the others continued speeding along in the Magic Carriage.

By then, the outside of Kuruki Train Station had already been surrounded by the military.

When Ye Yang appeared in front of them in a flash of golden light, the soldiers mistook it for an enemy attack and immediately swarmed forward to surround him.

"I'm a mage from Fairy Tail. I'm here to deal with this trouble."

The squad captain broke out in a cold sweat the instant he saw Ye Yang.

"You idiots, lower your weapons already!"

Upon hearing the captain's order, the soldiers lowered their weapons and retreated.

He had taken part in the Dark Guild Purge several years ago. Although they had only handled the cleanup afterward, Ye Yang's face had long been deeply imprinted in their minds.

He was also listed as the one person they absolutely must not provoke.

The squad captain then walked up to Ye Yang, trembling.

"Lord... Lord Ye Yang, d-do you have any instructions?"

Ye Yang looked curiously at the man he had never met before.

"You know me?"

"Yes, yes, though you probably don't know me."

"I saw you during that purge operation."

Ye Yang immediately understood.

"Haha, it's fine, it's fine. No need to be so nervous. I'm just here to deal with the people inside."

Upon hearing that, the squad captain immediately had his men open a path.

"This way, sir. Is there anything else you need us to do?"

"You're too polite. My companions will be arriving later too. Just let them in when they get here."

"Yes!"

The squad captain watched Ye Yang's departing figure with reverence.

He then ordered, "Pass this on. Move the perimeter back another 50... no! 500 meters."

At that moment, the squad's adjutant stepped out.

"Why, Captain? If we spread the perimeter too far, those people could easily escape!"

"Bang!"

"What the hell do you know, kid? Do you know who that man was?!"

The adjutant was baffled from the blow. "Yeah, who was that brat?"

"Smack!"

"What brat? Call him General!!"

"With your attitude, you'll be an adjutant for the rest of your life."

The adjutant looked proudly at his captain. "That's right, I'll be your adjutant for the rest of my life!"

"Bang!"

"Who wants you to be my adjutant for the rest of my life?! Get lost."

"That man is the Kingdom's Great General!"

"Shura!"

Upon hearing the name Shura, the adjutant did not recognize it at first. He kept muttering to himself.

"Shura? Great General? I feel like I've heard of Shura somewhere, but we've never even seen the Kingdom's Great General..."

"Emmm... Holy shit, it's him! He's that mysterious Great General?!!"

"You finally figured it out."

"Then, Captain, can we get off work early?"

"Bang!"

"You're a smart one, kid. I could tell from the day you were born."

"Isn't that because you trained me so well, sir?"

"Hahahaha, sure, sure."
