Before he finished speaking, he raised a finger and lightly hooked it.
The five puppets scattered in all directions, opened their mouths with a click, and green magic bullets rained down on Juvia.
-- Shameless.
--Because she is looked down upon by the guild.
Bickslow's harsh words instantly tore a hole in her heart, which was gradually being healed by the warmth of the guild. Her mind was shaken for a moment, and her face turned extremely pale.
Although... at the beginning, it was really because of Gray that people paid attention to this place.
However, during this period of getting along, Juvia has grown to like Fairy Tail more and more.
Everyone is so considerate of their companions, and they are so noisy and happy every day.
Even if it's raining outside, as soon as you step into the guild's door, it's still as warm as a sunny day inside.
She originally thought that through hard work, she had gotten closer to everyone...
'People in the guild... have they always viewed Juvia like this...Juvia is indeed an unpopular alien...'
At some point, a small dark cloud floated over her head again.
The shaken Juvia stood there blankly, her eyes full of confusion and sadness. Facing the magic bullets falling overwhelmingly, she even forgot to dodge!
"Juvia! Get out of the way!!"
Lucy looked at Juvia, who was completely stunned, and was extremely anxious. She had no time to think, and rushed over, swooping down and hugging Juvia tightly. The two of them rolled on the ground in embarrassment for several times.
Boom boom boom!!
The dense explosion almost hit their heels, and the air waves set off made their clothes rustle.
"Are you crazy?! Why are you so stupid at this time!!"
Lucy got up from the ground in disgrace and yelled at Juvia frantically.
Then Lucy pulled Juvia up.
Then, under Juvia's stunned gaze, Lucy pressed Juvia's shoulders firmly with both hands and looked directly into her wavering eyes:
"Juvia is our companion!"
"You are already a member of Fairy Tail!"
"Don't start doubting yourself just because of some trash talk from someone! Give me more confidence!!"
Juvia opened his mouth wide and stared blankly at the blond girl with fiery eyes who was clearly regarded as his "love rival" but was desperately protecting him at this moment.
Lucy's words were like a ray of sunshine shining into her heart.
The dark clouds above her head disappeared in the blink of an eye, her eyes couldn't help but feel moist, and her lips trembled slightly. "Miss Lucy... thank you..."
However, after being moved for only a second, she blushed slightly again, turned her head and whispered:
"... However, one code equals another, you are still Juvia's love rival."
"I told you no!!"
However, the excited Lucy did not notice that a puppet next to Bickslow had used the thick smoke produced by the explosion to cover up and quietly walked around the blind spot of her vision!
"Lucy!! Be careful with the key!!" Happy in the distance noticed something strange and shouted in horror.
"What?!" Lucy was startled and subconsciously reached out to touch his waist.
But it was too late, she only felt a lightness on her waist, and her outstretched hand came up empty.
When I looked down, I saw that the key bag that had been hanging there was gone.
The puppet was holding the strap of the key bag in its mouth and flying into the sky.
"Stole it! Stole it!"
"My key!!"
"Haha!" Bickslow laughed loudly and proudly, "Celestial Spirit Mage Without the key, wouldn't it become a useless waste?! I don't see how you can still fight!"
"Damn it! Give me my keys back!!" Lucy jumped up in anger.
"Lucy, you and Juvia be careful! Let's go get the key back!"
Happy flapped its wings and turned into a blue light and rushed straight over. The puppet was so frightened that it made a sharp turn, and the cat and the puppet immediately started a chase in the air.
On the ground, Lucy took a deep breath, reached out and took off the whip from his waist, his eyes became sharp again:
"Don't think that I have no fighting power without the key!"
"Juvia, let's go together!"
"Okay! Let's work together to deal with this annoying guy!" Juvia agreed loudly and happily.
The two of them, one on the left and one on the right, worked together to attack Bickslow on the roof.
Bickslow snorted coldly when he saw this, and directed the puppet to shoot out dense magic bullets.
"Water Stream Slash!" Juvia danced with his hands, controlling countless streams of water to break the flying magic bullets one by one, and exploded in the air.
"Take advantage of the moment!" Lucy saw the opportunity and rushed forward with a kick. The long whip whipped out arcs, forcing Bickslow to retreat continuously.
For a moment, Bickslow, who originally had the upper hand, was suppressed by the tacit cooperation of the two Girl.
At the same time, good news came from the air. Happy dived and snatched the key bag back from the little puppet's mouth. "Lucy, the key is back!"
It circled in the air and threw the key bag to Lucy below.
Seeing the situation take a turn for the worse, Bickslow's face darkened.
He retreated to the other end of the warehouse roof and gritted his teeth. "It seems that I have underestimated you women... then don't blame me for taking it seriously!"
As he spoke, he raised his hands and prepared to lift off the mask that had been covering his face.
Seeing this, Happy in the air suddenly remembered something, his pupils shrank suddenly, and he shouted, "No! Close your eyes quickly! Don't look into his eyes!!"
Although Lucy and Juvia were puzzled, they immediately closed their eyes out of trust in their companions.
Lucy relied on his hearing to alert the surroundings, and at the same time shouted to Happy, "Happy! What's going on?!"
Happy avoided Bickslow's sight and flew to their side, explaining loudly:
"Thunder God Tribe's three people all have their own magic eyes! Bickslow's 'Figure Eyes' can turn the people who look at him into puppets that he can control! You must not look at him!"
However, being unable to visually capture their opponent's actions put them at a huge disadvantage.
Bickslow's strange laughter echoed around, five puppets shuttled back and forth in the air, and magic bullets were shot from all directions.
The two lost their vision and could only be beaten passively. Their clothes were quickly scratched in several places.
"For the sake of Laxus, please leave here!" Bickslow gathered the five puppets into a circle, and the powerful magic power gathered in it, gradually turning into a huge magic bullet.
The two felt a huge magic power suddenly condensed in front of them, and knew that the other party was about to launch a powerful attack.
Juvia gritted his teeth and instantly transformed into a huge transparent water ball, tightly wrapping Lucy and Happy in it, intending to bear all the damage alone.
"Miss Lucy recognized Juvia as Fairy Tail's companion... You will never be allowed to harm Juvia's companion in front of Juvia!!"
"Juvia!? What are you going to do!?" Feeling protected by the water flow, Lucy asked in panic.
Happy was so anxious that he gritted his teeth:
"Damn it, you can't look him in the eyes. You can't avoid it or fight back!"
"... It would be great if Blanc were here. If only he had his powerful magic that clears the area in an instant and blasts away the surroundings without any difference!"
Lucy Hearing the word "clear the scene", an idea flashed in his mind.
She felt the flowing water around her and raised the corners of her mouth. "Happy, I have an idea!"
Lucy fumbled for the key bag in the water, took out a Gold Key, inserted it into Juvia's body that turned into water without hesitation, and said loudly:
"Turn it on! Gate of Aquarius--Aquarius!!"
Juvia exclaimed, "You actually... used Juvia's body as a medium to summon Celestial Spirit?!"
"As long as there is water, I can summon the most powerful Celestial Spirit, Aquarius!" Lucy closed his eyes with a confident smile on his face, "This is all thanks to you, Juvia!"
As the golden magic circle bloomed in the water, Aquarius appeared.
Then Lucy pointed forward proudly. "Aquarius, knock that guy down for me!!"
As soon as she appeared, a big blue vein popped up on her forehead, and she stared at Lucy: "It's so noisy!! You stinky girls! Call me out in such a mess again!!"
In his rage, Aquarius waved the water bottle in his hand without distinguishing between friend and foe, and set off a tsunami towards everyone present.
Happy, who was caught in the torrent, couldn't help crying and complained, "Aquarius... we are boys~"
