Sorry, You Can't!
In the center of Alon Island, clusters of red and gold lightning and fire, like giant dragons, spewed golden Sea of Fire upon the pillar-like Threads of Sin.
The thunder and fire were fierce, like the end of the world; wherever they passed, even the dust vaporized in the scorching heat.
The hissing sound in the air was intermittent; it was the cracking of the Threads of Sin. Its incredibly hard body, which possessed super-strong elemental resistance, could not withstand the Unison Raid of Laxus and Hughes.
Unison Raid is a type of magic that can only be used by partners with extremely high trust and strong magical compatibility; its power is beyond imagination.
In the original work, Natsu and Gajeel, Juvia and Gray all used it together.
Unlike Laxus's shock, Hughes, who was not very familiar with Unison Raid, stared blankly at the lightning and fire before him.
"Damn, Laxus, you're actually pretty useful as a support!"
Upon hearing this, Laxus was shocked and immediately retreated, retorting, "There's no such thing as support in Unison Raid; we're both the main force."
He admitted that Hughes's flames were very powerful, and this Unison Raid was based on Hughes's flames, but his lightning was also very strong!
Without his lightning, do you think Hughes could use Unison Raid by himself?
Hughes didn't respond further; he didn't believe Laxus's words. He wasn't using magic, so how could he possibly perform Unison Raid attack with Laxus?
This move was purely a fluke, a complete coincidence.
The lightning and fire continued to scorch the Threads of Sin, crackling and popping, while Hughes, standing in the sky, stared intently ahead.
He dares not act rashly now, for fear of disrupting the balance between thunder and fire.
Within the Threads of Sin, scorching heat surged in through the mottled cracks on its surface, causing the person inside to sweat profusely and gasp for breath.
As Gar and the other three looked at the increasingly unrecognizable Gogirde ahead, their hearts were filled with unease and tension.
After transferring the immense magical power of the Threads of Sin to himself, Gogirde's appearance changed drastically. His skin turned pitch black, the whites of his eyes widened, and his pupils turned into blood-red dots.
His bulging muscles trembled from time to time; the magic emanating from his body was like an abyss.
He beckoned to Gar, Gar twisted smile vanished. Gar swallowed hard, trembling as he stepped forward. "Yes..."
A wicked smile appeared on Gogirde's lips. Before Gar could finish speaking, his thick, large hand swung diagonally and landed directly on Gar's face.
"Smack!"
Gar spun two and a half times in the air, then collapsed to the ground with a thud, seeing stars, his right cheek instantly swelling up like a ball.
"Gar, how are you!"
"Hehe, so... so good, even better than when the Threads of Sin hit my body before!"
Gadon and the other two:...
They often felt out of place in Gar because they weren't twisted enough...
"Haha, as long as it feels good. Since the Threads of Sin are useless, I'll do it myself."
Gogirde laughed heartily, but there was no smile on his face; instead, his expression was ferocious.
According to their second plan, the Threads of Sin would break through the limits of life after absorbing all the magic power of the entire Alon Island.
Its strength increases accordingly, and combined with its unique ability to inflict mental damage upon contact, it is enough to crush all enemies.
Meanwhile, Gogirde remained hidden within the Threads of Sin, slowly absorbing Threads of Sin immense magical power after Threads of Sin had eliminated all enemies. He absorbed and digested the power as he went, eventually transforming its Threads of Sin strength into his own.
Now, thanks to Hughes's actions, the entire plan has been thrown into chaos, forcing Gogirde hastily absorb the vast magical power of the Threads of Sin in a short period of time to rapidly enhance his strength.
Gogirde that with his physical condition, absorbing a huge amount of magic power in a short period of time would definitely cause trouble.
But he didn't care anymore; even if he died, he would drag the fire elemental kid outside down with him.
Who is Gogirde? He is the guild master of the Dark Guild, the Threads of Illusory Evil, a great figure who has traversed two countries and killed without hesitation.
He was humiliated twice in one day by two young lads. He was unwilling to accept it and vowed to drag them down with him, even if it meant his own death.
Gogirde's ferocious face showed a hint of madness. He stomped heavily on the ground, and the Threads of Sin, which was like a candle flickering in the wind, froze instantly before collapsing violently.
"Fire elemental brat, I'll kill you!" Gogirde roared.
Dark magic power was released endlessly from his body, surging in all directions, like the powerful impact of a meteorite hitting the ground, scattering the surrounding lightning and fire.
He didn't use any magical techniques; he simply used his powerful magic to annihilate the Unison Raid of Laxus and Hughes.
In mid-air, Hughes made several forced landings, Gogirde's powerful magic forced him to land.
After landing, Hughes gestured with his hand behind his back, indicating that Laxus should step back.
This kid is injured, and his magic power hasn't fully recovered yet. It's easy for him to get into trouble if he stays here.
As the saying goes, "Whitewashing weakens you by three points, while turning evil strengthens you by three times."
Gogirde's current dark, almost godlike appearance is clearly an enhanced version of his dark transformation, three times stronger.
And most importantly, Gogirde's Illusion Magic is impossible to defend against. In his current state, he could easily fall into the trap with a mere gesture or a few words.
Having Laxus retreat a bit, away from the battlefield, would not only reduce his unnecessary injuries but also provide Hughes with a reminder from the sidelines.
After all, those involved are often confused, while bystanders see things more clearly.
Laxus, who has not yet mastered Fairy Tail's strongest magic, the BGM Technique, has not yet been affected by its side effects and become a mindless reckless person. He nodded and quickly retreated.
Gogirde tossed his head aside. "You four go and deal with him, I'll handle this fire elemental brat myself!"
He stood still, his powerful magic continuously seeping into the ground.
If Hughes were still in the air, he would surely see a giant magic circle rapidly forming across the entire Alon Island.
"Hehe, okay, guild master!" Gar replied with a laugh, and an earth-yellow magic circle formed beneath his and Gadon's feet, and the two disappeared in an instant.
Hughes glanced at the ground, which was rapidly rising in an arc, extending in the direction Laxus had retreated.
Seeing this, Hughes's expression was somewhat strange. Why did every earth magic mage like to use this move?
Previously in the forest, the members of the Black Magic Cult who kidnapped Elfman and Lisanna used this technique to escape. Now, these two perverted men are using the same technique in front of him?
Hughes darted forward, appearing in the path of the Gar brothers. He stomped his leg heavily on the ground, and deep flames, originating from his foot, began to burn the earth.
Hughes used this very tactic to force the Black Magic Cult members out from underground.
Considering the strength of the enemy this time, Hughes bent down and slammed his flaming palms onto the ground, adding fuel to the fire and scorching the ground until it cracked and steam rose.
"A great opportunity!"
A black, furry claw attacked from behind Hughes' head. Its fist, as clenched as a boulder, swung in a perfect arc, aiming to smash down hard on Hughes' unsuspecting back of the head.
