The One Who Opened the Gate!

At the Eclipse Gate

"There's no need for you to hide. Come out!"

Arcadios looked toward the bushes nearby. He had sensed Natsu and the others' presence!

Natsu and the others leaped out from the bushes, including Future Lucy.

"You can't open that gate!"

Lucy looked at the gate that was already activating and shouted anxiously!

"We're saving this country!"

"But we haven't found the dragons yet, have we?! We can wait until we find them before opening it!"

Future Lucy desperately tried to stop them, but the soldiers blocked her.

"Fairy Tail?!"

Hisui stared at the scene in shock. She had never expected Fairy Tail to appear here!

"I'm truly sorry, but the situation is urgent. If we wait until the dragons are found, it will be too late. We can only bring out the weapon first!"

She explained to everyone.

"But what if there isn't a weapon behind the Eclipse Gate?!"

"Impossible! The person who came from the future had no reason to lie to me! Besides, Qian Guang and I reached an agreement on this matter!"

As she spoke, Hisui pointed toward Qian Guang on the rooftop behind her. Qian Guang was still smiling and waving at them.

"What?!"

Panic appeared in Future Lucy's eyes. She had returned to the past because Qian Guang had told her, "Don't open the Eclipse Gate!"

And now...

"What the hell is going on, Qian Guang?!"

Lucy was thrown into confusion as well and shouted in Qian Guang's direction, but a hand stopped her from moving forward.

"That's a fake!"

Natsu's expression twisted viciously.

At the same time, Wendy wore an angry expression for once. "There's no trace of Master's scent here! That's nothing more than an illusion!"

"What?!" Arcadios and Dutton looked at Hisui in shock, unable to believe it.
