Master, Leave the Finishing Blow to Me
Of the Element 4 of the Phantom Lord, Aria, the wind element, is the most powerful, but Hughes is his natural counter.
Aria uses the wind magic "Depletion"; by manipulating the wind element, she directly targets the enemy's source of magic, thereby achieving magic depletion and spatial attacks.
Based on the magical properties of mana stripping and spatial attack, Aria created a deadly three-pronged attack.
The "Void Annihilation" technique used against Hughes was a magic-stripping move. This move was so dangerous that even a veteran of the "Ten Wizard Saints" like Makarov almost said goodbye to his beloved Hughes.
Unfortunately, it's useless against someone like Hughes who has no magic.
The second move of the three-pronged attack, "Air Domain Annihilation," is a spatial attack-like move that combines defensive and control effects.
Uh... Hughes ' Elementalization is easily dealt with.
As for Aria's strongest move, "Death Void Zero," it creates a wind-filled spatial domain that can devour life.
It sounds exaggerated, but a few years later, in the final battle between Fairy Tail and Phantom Lord, the Wind Space Domain was easily cut open by Erza's three swords despite her injury.
Hughes touched his Tekkai- like body, wondering if he should try showing off in a few years and stand still to take Aria's attack head-on?
Perfect-Level Tekkai can't be so useless that it can't withstand this attack!
Speaking of the Element 4 of the Phantom Lord, Hughes is most curious about the infatuated Juvia. It's currently X778, Juvia should have already accepted Jose's invitation to become the water element of the Element 4 that Phantom Lord.
Like Mira and Erza, Juvia is a genius Awakening magic on her own.
The Awakening Water Magic magic, which allows one to Elementalization. Wherever Juvia appears, it inevitably rains. This level of absurdity is comparable to how a Complete Awakening Logia Devil Fruit can alter the climate of an entire region.
"Boom! Boom!"
A violent flash of lightning interrupted Hughes's thoughts. Hughes looked closely and saw the earth trembling, and the entire Guild Alliance meeting place shaking violently.
Dark purple and golden magic raged wildly in the council hall, causing everyone present to flee in terror.
As expected of the Brotherhood Guild, even before fleeing, Bob and Goldmine didn't forget Hughes in the corner. "Hughes, hurry up and run! Makarov and Jose, those two ' Ten Wizard Saints,' are about to fight!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the massive Guild Alliance meeting venue creaked and shattered, billowing thick smoke.
Hughes was led to safety by Bob and Chairman Goldmine: "Young Hughes, remember not to get too close to them."
Hughes nodded to them, then looked around. Thunder flashed in the sky, and the earth cracked and shook. Was this the legendary battle of the "Ten Wizard Saints" that would cause the heavens and earth to change color?
That's truly a terrifying power!
In the distance, Jose, with his magic fully unleashed, had eyes that turned pitch black, and dark purple magic roared from his body, causing red Inazuma to surge in the void, seemingly about to shatter space itself.
Jose stretched out his right arm, spread his five fingers, and dark purple spheres gathered at the tips of his fingers.
In the blink of an eye, the dark purple sphere shot out from Jose's fingertips, transforming into several dark purple beams of light that relentlessly bombarded Makarov.
"Makarov, you old codger, you're out of touch with the times! The Ten Wizard Saints are so insignificant because of weak old fogies like you!"
Upon hearing Jose's words, Hughes paused slightly, even stopping his gossiping. His eyes blinked; was it now fashionable to put on a show before the fight even started?
So reckless, completely disregarding the consequences of a rollover?
Will Jose start slapping himself in his sleep from now on?
Makarov, Jose's opponent, calmly put down the barrel of wine in his hand, joined his middle and index fingers together, and with a slight wave, a golden stream of light flew out from the tips of his two fingers, dispersing all of Jose's dark purple beam of light.
Jose remained calm, raised his right arm, and a magic circle crackling with electric arcs instantly formed.
"Dark Rondo!"
A dark purple beam of light spiraled out from the magic circle, aimed directly at Makarov.
Dividing his attention, Jose extended his left palm, and a magic circle with a completely different pattern from the one on his right palm instantly formed. A giant dark purple ghost emerged from the magic circle.
The giant ghost opened its hideous maw and sped toward Makarov.
This is the Soul Devouring in Jose's Darkness Magic. Once touched by a giant ghost, the giant ghost can devour the soul and magic power of the person.
Makarov calmly responded, touching his thumbs and index fingers together to form a triangular space. The triangular space flickered and instantly shot out a golden beam of light, annihilating Jose's Dark Rondo and the giant ghost.
The golden beam of light continued unabated, relentlessly advancing until it leveled the hill behind Jose.
Jose's expression changed, his dark pupils widening in anger.
The onlookers were watching this rare "Ten Wizard Saints" battle with bated breath, while Hughes looked at the mountain behind Jose where thick smoke was rising, silently calculating how much Makarov would have to pay in compensation!
With such a large mountain and the entire Guild Alliance meeting venue, a few million J is definitely not enough.
It's unknown whether Makarov's expression was one of regret or helplessness when he received the compensation notice from the Magic Council.
Hughes, deep in thought, scratched his head with a strange expression.
As the saying goes, if the upper beam is crooked, the lower beam will be crooked too!
Therefore, the reason why Natsu and his companions would frequently destroy town buildings and hilltops during their missions was actually due to Makarov??
Hughes Satori and understood; if he ever caused any trouble in the future, he could just blame Makarov.
Hughes borrowed a Recording Magic Crystal from the guild leader he didn't know and recorded everything around him. This would be the evidence he would use to defend himself later.
The guild leader who lent Hughes the Recording Magic Crystal noticed that Hughes' attention was completely elsewhere and asked with concern, "Aren't you worried that Makarov will be defeated?"
Before Hughes could answer, President Bob, cupping his face in his hands, spoke gently, "Makarov didn't even use his signature Giant Magic, how could he have lost! Don't you think so, Hughes?"
Hughes's upturned lips slowly flattened, and he silently took a few steps back.
Damn it, just speak properly! What's with the half-closed eyes and the flying kiss?!
Hughes put his hands behind his back and took a few more steps back...
Chairman Bob's gaze was so intense, and for some reason, my buttocks started to ache slightly!
On the battlefield, seeing that his Darkness Magic was failing to subdue Makarov, a furious Jose immediately unleashed his strongest magic.
"Death Storm!"
With a furious roar, a large amount of dark purple magic gathered in Jose's hands, and a powerful dark shockwave, capable of destroying the world, shot straight at Makarov!
With a deafening roar, the ground along the way vanished, and the earth and rocks were obliterated.
Seeing this, Makarov lowered his head and sighed, as the golden magic circle slowly expanded beneath his feet.
"Hiss~ hiss"
The sound of clothes being stretched open reached everyone's ears, and the diminutive Makarov rapidly grew larger in the golden light.
Suddenly, a gigantic giant with bulging muscles appeared before everyone.
The terrifying magical power emanating from the giant was so overwhelming that it tore the ground apart simply by standing there.
Hughes saw Jose's throat move twice.
Jose, you still have a long way to go!
As the voice faded, golden light enveloped the giant fist. Makarov easily shattered Jose's ultimate move, Death Storm, with a single punch. Immediately, a giant finger emerged, its tip gleaming with dazzling golden light, instantly transforming into several golden beams that pierced straight at Jose.
"Guild Leader, leave the finishing blow to me, I'll carry the team!"
Behind the golden beam of light, Fire Fist that blotted out the sky followed closely behind; Hughes was already impatient.
