"You can't defeat me!" Minerva said.
"Hehe...! Although I really dislike you, you are indeed very strong. That's what makes the battles more interesting." Natsu grinned and said.
Minerva frowned. "Interesting...? I don't find it interesting at all! If it weren't for you, we would have already won first place! Disappear!" Minerva shouted angrily.
He was chanting something that sounded like a spell. Upon seeing this, the First Generation exclaimed in surprise, "The Eighteen Demon Gods Magic!" A statue resembling a gate god then descended.
"Second Magic Source Activated!" Natsu shouted, and the flames around his body suddenly increased in intensity.
"Dragon Slayer Secret Art! Crimson Lotus Exploding Flame Blade!"
"Boom..." Both sides' magic exploded violently, light shot into the sky, and buildings that came into contact were shattered;
Gildarts and Jura exchanged wry smiles; they hadn't expected to be dragged into this.
When the light disappeared, it was Minerva collapsed, her face still showing disbelief. Fairy Tail A-Team's score instantly rose to 67 points.
Natsu wore a smug expression.
Natsu also saw Chen Fan and shouted loudly to Chen Fan, "Let's have a showdown!" Then he ran towards Chen Fan, but after only a couple of steps, he was knocked unconscious by something that suddenly fell from the sky, and he was eliminated.
At this moment, Lili also rushed over with Sting. When they saw the Koneko that had collided with Natsu and fainted, Sting quickly ran over and picked it up, tears streaming down his face. He kept thanking Chen Fan, leaving Chen Fan speechless. Oh well, never mind.
"Boom..." After five days of battle, the Grand Magic Games finally came to a conclusion, and this result was as expected by everyone. Of course, it was also the result of the performance of everyone in Fairy Tail in the first four days. The title of the strongest guild finally rightfully fell on Fairy Tail's head.
The Fairy Tail members cheered. Seven years had passed, and the title of strongest guild had returned to Fairy Tail. Perhaps they had predicted this result long ago, and thought they could accept it calmly after their success. But as expected, they couldn't remain calm and celebrated loudly. The members who had been in the guild for the past seven years were especially so. Although they hadn't achieved Makarov's dream of a three-peat, the first and second places belonged to Fairy Tail. He had witnessed the growth of these kids, and that was enough, truly enough.
Chapter 43 Dragon King Festival!!
The Grand Magic Games have just ended, and everyone is still feeling a bit unsatisfied. However, they are even more excited for next year. Those who did not achieve good results in the Preliminary Match have realized that it was not due to luck, but rather a lack of real strength. Seeing the performance of everyone in the tournament, they all have a goal to surpass and are determined to work hard towards that goal.
Fairy Tail was the biggest winner; all the guild members wore smiles as they celebrated at the bar. Although they had been having celebrations every day for the Tenten, this was the happiest one yet.
As Midnight, suddenly, groups of the Kingdom Army appeared, ordering the people living in the capital Crocas, to take their important belongings to the refuge area. All the mages were also summoned to the central square of Crocas.
Then King Thomas E. Fiore of the Kingdom of Fiore spoke up, "I am truly sorry to have brought everyone here so late, but for the future of this country, I have no choice but to do so. It is 10 p. m. now, and in two hours, on the seventh day of the seventh month, ten thousand dragons will fly here!"
"Ten thousand dragons..." Makarov exclaimed in surprise. Of course, Makarov wasn't the only one surprised; everyone in the central square was astonished, and the square became quite noisy.
"One Acnologia is already almost impossible to defeat...!"
"There are now ten thousand..."
"Although Acnologia is rather special."
"But only ten thousand... that's still a quantity..."
"A large-scale battle plan is currently underway within the castle— Eclipse Plan! The objective is to annihilate ten thousand dragons in one fell swoop!" the king announced.
Natsu, Gajeel, Gray were taken aback. They had heard of the 'Eclipse' plan, but it didn't seem to be the same as what the King had said.
The group exchanged glances. "What's going on?"
"But there are ten thousand dragons after all. We speculate that perhaps a few or even a few hundred have survived. Fellow members of the Mage Guild... please lend us your power! We hope to use everyone's strength to defeat the surviving dragons! That's it! Please save this country!" King Thomas E. Fiore bowed to all the mages and said.
"Oh... no problem."
"Leave it to us!"
