Chapter Summaries

The Five Elders unleashed a vast army of mutated beasts, insects, and Sea Kings against Marineford, forcing Bai Yu’s allies to prepare to hold them off while he faced the Elders. As the battle loomed, Sengoku warned Bai Yu not to get distracted, and Golden Lion offered to risk his life for him.

• Golden Lion laughed with Bai Yu, drank his farewell liquor, and challenged the Five Elders to bring on their tricks.
• Daps told Nusjuro that the World Government had used the siege to draw Bai Yu out, then ordered Killer to act.
• Killer opened spatial rifts and released immense numbers of mutated beasts and insects, while Sea Kings crowded the surrounding sea.
• Sengoku, Garp, Aokiji, Akainu, Whitebeard, and the others stepped forward to fight the monsters so Bai Yu could focus on the Five Elders.
• Golden Lion asked Bai Yu if he was confident and offered to risk his life for him.

Bai Yu faced the Five Elders’ overwhelming army of mutated beasts and Sea Kings and unleashed Fairy Melody, wiping out the attackers and the Five Elders. The battlefield was left with the warships, weapons, and PX Pacifistas, while everyone else realized how close they had come to being erased as well.

• Bai Yu told Sengoku and the others to retreat while he challenged the Five Elders’ human-wave assault alone.
• Daps ordered the frenzied beasts and Sea Kings to attack Bai Yu, and the enormous force charged toward him.
• Bai Yu converted his powers into magic and unleashed “Super Magic: Fairy Melody,” flooding the area with golden light.
• The golden light dissolved the beasts and Sea Kings and erased the resurrected ability users and the Five Elders.
• The light faded, revealing that only the ten warships, weapons, and PX Pacifistas remained; Whitebeard and the others were left shaken by the attack.

Bai Yu’s Fairy Melody wiped out the Five Elders and their forces, but left him completely drained. Imu stayed hidden, then revealed that she had used the battle to test Bai Yu and had no intention of attacking him yet.

• Bai Yu caught his bottle after Fairy Melody vanished the enemy forces and the Five Elders, while Whitebeard’s group stayed alert for Imu.
• With his strength exhausted and Imu nowhere in sight, Bai Yu fell into a crater, and Ace and Marco mistook his helplessness for a trick.
• Bai Yu called for Ace to help him up and concluded that his feigned weakness had frightened Imu into staying away.
• At Mary Geoise, the Five Elders knelt before Imu and Nusjuro urged her to attack Bai Yu while he was drained.
• Imu said she had spared the Five Elders to use them to test Bai Yu, and concluded that he likely did not know about the Rinnegan or divine power.

After Imu spared the Five Elders, he ordered them to master the Rinnegan while he waited for it to awaken fully. At Marine Headquarters, Bai Yu and the others maintained a cheerful front as they waited to see whether Imu would attack, and Nusjuro voiced a strange feeling about Imu.

• The Five Elders feared Bai Yu’s devastating attack, but Imu said he had achieved his goal and would awaken his Rinnegan in a few months.
• Imu ordered the Five Elders to master the Rinnegan and warned them not to repeat their past failure before disappearing.
• Daps saw Nusjuro hesitate and warned him against pursuing Bai Yu, but Nusjuro said Imu’s gaze had given him a strange feeling.
• Daps slapped Nusjuro and covered his mouth after the others reacted with alarm to his words about Imu.
• At Marine Headquarters, Whitebeard, Garp, Sengoku, and the others celebrated loudly while remaining ready to defend Bai Yu.
• Bai Yu told the group to stop wasting the liquor and felt relieved that Imu had not attacked during their wait.

After Imu chose not to attack, Bai Yu reassured the exhausted defenders and revealed that he could send four people into a Fairy Tail dungeon to gain new powers. Red-Haired and Ace volunteered to enter, and Bai Yu teased Ace about expecting special treatment.

• Bai Yu said Imu was still waiting and promised she might regret missing her chance to attack him.
• The exhausted defenders relaxed, and Bai Yu decided to help Whitebeard and the others gain new powers before Imu or the Five Elders could exploit their weakness.
• Red-Haired asked whether Bai Yu could grant them new power, and Bai Yu explained that the dungeon allowed up to four entrants and required them to clear it to earn rewards.
• Bai Yu summoned an ancient six-story dungeon tower, and Akainu stepped forward to lead the challenge.
• Red-Haired refused Lucky’s offer to go first and volunteered to test the dungeon himself.
• Ace also volunteered, and Bai Yu joked that Ace was hoping his sworn brother would help him cheat.

Bai Yu sent Akainu, Red-Haired Shanks, Ace, and Sabo into the ancient tower dungeon, then prepared to return to the Fairy Tail world with Tornado. He reassured the others that Imu was unlikely to act soon and left while cautioning Tornado not to reveal her strength.

• Bai Yu told Sabo to stop hiding and explained that the dungeon required speed, while warning the group he would not reveal more clues.
• Akainu led Red-Haired Shanks, Ace, and Sabo into the ancient tower, whose doors closed behind them.
• Bai Yu assured Sengoku that he would monitor the world and said Imu had already obtained the information she wanted.
• Sengoku gave Bai Yu a bottle of liquor, and Tornado asked to travel with him to see other worlds.
• Bai Yu agreed to take Tornado but told her not to reveal her strength, then used his power to transport them away.

Sabo, Ace, Red-Haired, and Akainu entered the Hokage Dungeon and received a mission to defeat Kinkaku and Ginkaku within twenty-four hours. They encountered the Third Raikage and the Gold and Silver Force, whose plans to attack Konoha exposed a rift between Ginkaku and the Raikage.

• Sabo, Ace, Red-Haired, and Akainu arrived in a forest, where Akainu warned the others to stay alert.
• The dungeon system assigned them the task of defeating Kinkaku and Ginkaku within twenty-four hours.
• Akainu sensed the Third Raikage, Kinkaku, Ginkaku, and dozens of Kumogakure shinobi approaching.
• Ginkaku urged the Third Raikage to kill the newcomers and seize Konoha, but the Raikage ordered his forces to capture them and avoid disrupting negotiations.
• Ace asked Sabo to assess their opponents, and Sabo identified the two brothers while judging the remaining shinobi to be no threat.

Ace, Akainu, Sabo, and Red-Haired fought the Third Raikage, Kinkaku, and Ginkaku, but the brothers turned on the Third Raikage and left him badly wounded. With the numbers shifted in their favor, Akainu led the group into an all-out attack on Kinkaku and Ginkaku.

• Ace bragged about his strength, but the Third Raikage struck him with a lightning-fast punch that sent him crashing through trees and rock.
• Ginkaku ambushed the Third Raikage and declared that he and Kinkaku planned to blame his death on Konoha and kill Tobirama Senju and Hashirama Senju.
• Kinkaku attacked the wounded Third Raikage, but Akainu blocked the Seven-Star Sword with an Armament Haki-coated punch.
• Ace, Sabo, and Red-Haired joined Akainu as he activated the Seventh Gate and Water Stream Rock Smashing Fist, and the group prepared to attack Kinkaku and Ginkaku.

Bai Yu and Tornado arrived in Edolas, where Fairy Tail’s familiar members had opposite personalities and Lisanna was quietly grieving her original world. The guild’s arrival ended with Lisanna noticing the visitors and the Fairy Tail mark.

• Lucy whipped a timid Natsu while Lisanna and Mira tried to calm the group after the dangerous escape.
• Mira comforted Lisanna, who concealed her longing for her original world, until Lisanna noticed Bai Yu, Tornado, and a familiar Fairy Tail mark.

Bai Yu revealed that he came from Earth Land and had arrived to take Lisanna home, convincing her by mentioning Happy. He then offered the Edolas guild a mysterious metal that could help them fight the Royal Army.

• Lisanna noticed that Bai Yu's Fairy Tail emblem was reversed like hers and wondered whether he was from Earth Land.
• Lisanna rushed into Bai Yu's arms, and he confirmed that he had come from Earth Land to take her home to Mira, Happy, and the others.

• Bai Yu introduced himself to Lucy and Mira and said he had promised Mira a birthday present, but Lisanna's return would be a better gift.
• Bai Yu gave a silver lump of metal to Edolas's Natsu and offered it as a way to help the guild protect themselves against the Royal Army.

Bai Yu gave Lucy an Iron Man Armor, impressing the Fairy Tail members in the alternate world before the system whisked him and his companions away. Back in Earth Land, Fairy Tail learned that Bai Yu had become the tenth-ranked Wizard Saint, making the guild home to two Wizard Saints.

• Lucy warned Bai Yu that the kingdom outlawed magic items and confiscated them, but Bai Yu let J.A.R.V.I.S. deploy the Iron Man Armor onto her.
• Lucy tested the armor's flight, missiles, and lasers, leaving the Fairy Tail members eager to get suits of their own, though Bai Yu declined to provide more.

• At the Magic Council, Makarov learned that Phantom Lord had been struck from the register and Bai Yu had inherited a Wizard Saint title, ranked tenth.
• The Ishgar Continent was stunned by the news that Fairy Tail now had two Wizard Saints, while Jura moved up to ninth place.

On Mira’s birthday, Laxus mocked her grief over Lisanna and provoked the guild by claiming no god could bring the dead back. Bai Yu suddenly appeared and promised to show Laxus the form of a god, while Laxus’s attempt to force the new Wizard Saint to reveal himself reached its climax.

• Makarov asked Mira about her birthday wish, knowing she still wished Lisanna could return.
• Laxus arrived and cruelly mocked Mira’s wish, then challenged her to deny it and apologize.

• Laxus declared that only a god could revive the dead, while the Thunder God Tribe laughed behind him.
• Makarov threatened to make Laxus apologize and unleashed his magic power.
• Bai Yu appeared, told Makarov to calm down, and promised to show Laxus the form of a god.

Bai Yu returned Lisanna to the Fairy Tail guild, reuniting her with Mira on Mira’s birthday and leaving the guild stunned by his apparent ability to travel between worlds.

• Bai Yu reminded Mira of Lisanna and silently asked the system to remove her restrictions.
• Mira transformed with Full Body Take Over: Satan Soul and blasted Laxus backward, shocking Freed with the scale of her power.

Mira, Erza, Natsu, Gray, and several other Fairy Tail members removed Bai Yu’s bracers and unleashed greatly increased magic power, overturning Laxus and Jose’s plans. Laxus revealed his Lightning Dragon Slayer power and charged at the little girl following Bai Yu, who was described as an even greater monster than him.

• Erza realized Bai Yu’s bracers had been suppressing their magic power and removed hers, breaking through her Second Origin.
• Natsu, Gray, Mira, Gajeel, Juvia, Lucy, Elfman, and Cana removed their bracers, and several of them also broke through their Second Origins.
• Laxus, Freed, his companions, Jose, and Makarov stared in disbelief as the guild’s strength surged and Laxus’s plans collapsed.
• Laxus roared at Bai Yu and revealed his Lightning Dragon Slayer Magic: Lightning Dragon Mode.
• Laxus dashed past Bai Yu and Makarov toward the little girl, and Bai Yu warned that she was an even greater monster than Laxus.

Tornado overwhelmed Laxus with her psychic power, leaving him badly injured after a single exchange. As Jose arrived with hundreds of dark guild members, Bai Yu warned Freed that choosing the wrong side could get him killed, and the confrontation remained unresolved.

• Jose gathered several hundred members of four dark guilds, and Makarov urged him to surrender before the Magic Council hunted him down.
• Jose recognized that events had turned out very differently from his plan to let Laxus and Fairy Tail exhaust each other before seizing the advantage.

• Laxus realized Fairy Law could kill anyone Bai Yu regarded as an enemy and tried to flee.

Bai Yu’s Fairy Melody defeated Jose and the fleeing dark guild members, while leaving Laxus alive but stripped of his magic power. Makarov welcomed Bai Yu as a true member of Fairy Tail and entrusted him with helping discipline Laxus, who fainted at the prospect.

• Freed, Erza, Mira, and the others rushed to save Laxus as Bai Yu’s Fairy Melody engulfed the battlefield.
• The Shades vanished, the dark guild members fell from the sky, and Jose plunged to the ground.
• Bai Yu told the rescuers that Laxus was alive and only pretending to be unconscious.
• Makarov thanked Bai Yu and said that casting Fairy Melody showed Fairy Tail had acknowledged him.
• Happy approached Laxus with a knitting needle, prompting Laxus to open his eyes and admit he was fine.
• Bai Yu gave Makarov a wrist guard and offered to discipline Laxus, who promptly passed out from anger and fear.

Bai Yu defeated Jose and stopped Laxus’s uprising, though he still could not complete the nightmare-level dungeon. As Magnolia’s Winter Festival began, he declined to join the celebration and left to bathe, telling Tornado to stay with the guild.

• Bai Yu received Phantom Sword Dance after slaying Jose, but he remained unsure how to complete the nightmare-level dungeon.
