Chapter 538 We Will Always Be Friends, Right?

Go back to ten minutes ago.

Above the eastern battlefield of Fiore Kingdom.

The magic power turned into substantial wind pressure, constantly ravaging the ground, causing a large area of ​​cracks.

Count until the figures stand opposite each other.

On Jura's bright bald head, a drop of sweat oozes across his cheek and falls on the ground.

With his brows furrowed, he stared at the three people in front of him.

After conquering the lower Bosque country at a speed that exceeded everyone's imagination.

The three Twelve Shields even kept their troops in that country for faster action.

Therefore, Cai arrived at the border of Fiore Kingdom at dawn.

They had also anticipated the obstacles that would arise, and the reality was just as they thought.

Four holy ten wizards appeared in front of them.

"Is it you who attacked the Bosque country? Ishgar's traitor." Wolfheim, who was about the same height and size as Makarov, had his hands behind his back.

The eyes under the glasses stared at Selene, the god of the three people in front, with a slightly mocking tone.

But this mockery of Selene didn't take it seriously.

He raised his hands: "This is not my strength alone."

As he said that, he glanced at the two behind him and smiled slightly: "August, Jacob, this is everyone's strength!"

"Why defile the land that raised you? Selene!" Hyberion's face darkened.

"Haha… It's very simple." Selene raised his head high and said loudly:

"There's nothing wrong with going to a stronger place in order to become stronger!"

Jura's tightly wrinkled brows did not stretch at all, and she said in a deep voice:

"Is this the Selene of God, who ranks first among the Ten Sorcerers?"

"That's right." Warrod replied to Jura.

Glancing at the two behind Selene, he continued: "Behind him is the Magic King August who is said to have acquired all the magic of ancient and modern China and foreign countries!"

"as well as..."

Hyberion watched the other in a suit.

A man with a skull mark on his forehead.

"The genius of assassination magic, Jacob Lessio, one of the Twelve Shields."

Jacob looked at Jura eagerly, then reached out and touched his hairline.

He smiled slightly and said with emotion, "This bald head has a very nice hairstyle."

"Huh?" Jura was taken aback.

He seemed to feel that the guy was insulting him.

"Okay, the chat time is over, we are still rushing to Fairy Tail." Selene stood up.

Looking directly at the three of them, he stretched out his palm and hooked it.

"So, let's go to war everyone!"

boom—-! !

The roaring magic power spewed out, and the terrifying oppressive force even shattered the earth.

"This magic…" Jura's eyes widened instantly.

"Dragon Slayer!" Warrod murmured solemnly.

—————————

In a forest somewhere in the western part of Fiore Kingdom.

Natsu sat on the grass and looked at "Happy" who was cleaning the scars on his hands by the stream in front of him.

""Happy"…are your hands okay?" he asked softly.

There was remorse and remorse in his tone.

"Love, it's alright." "Happy" picked up the charred paws from the stream.

After the cooling of the water flow, there is no serious problem now.

Natsu breathed a sigh of relief.

Silently bowing his head, the scene fell into silence again.

Involuntarily, I recalled what had just happened in my mind.

Led by "Happy", Natsu went west to find the army of the Albarez Empire.

Originally came for Zeref, he decided to find a way to force Zeref out first.

So they launched an attack on the army of the Albarez Empire.

In the face of the raiding Natsu, these ordinary soldiers had no time to react.

In just a moment, thousands of people were defeated by Natsu.

And Zeref also appeared in front of him at the first time.

And that was exactly what Natsu wanted.

Without hesitation, Natsu released the secret weapon that had been hidden.

On his right arm, which was wrapped in bandages, there was the last power left by the Flame Dragon King Igneel to Natsu.

It was also the power that Natsu had spent ten months fully liberating.

Although once consumed, it will not recover.

But there is no doubt about the power of this force.

With this power, Natsu has achieved a level that rivals Zeref.

Do not.

It should be said that it is beyond the power of Zeref!

And this is exactly what Zeref has always wanted, he believes that with this power, Natsu will surely bring himself to death.

So Zeref had the army retreat ten kilometers, and it was up to him to get to know Natsu.

Understand the grievances that have lasted for four hundred years.

The battle began, and Natsu, possessing the power of the Fire Dragon King, completely suppressed Zeref.

It even pushed it into a corner.

Zeref is happier, and his tragedy may end today.

Seeing Natsu attacking with all his might, Zeref gave up his resistance.

Let Natsu's fist hit his body.

But the punch wounded Zeref.

But it didn't kill Zeref.

Faced with such a situation, Natsu was not discouraged.

Because the power remaining in his body was enough for him to strike the final blow.

He believed that one more time would kill Zeref.

Not just Natsu, but Zeref too.

Therefore, Zeref decides to tell Natsu the secret that has been stored in his heart for a long time at the last moment of his life.

Zeref's full name, Zeref Dragneel.

It's Natsu's older brother, both of them from four hundred years ago.

In that era when the dragon race was raging, both their parents and Natsu died under the dragon's flames.

Zeref at that time in order to resurrect his relatives.

Started the study of life and death, and successfully constructed the demon in the Book of Zeref.

A being named Etherious, that is, the Aether Demon.

And the most perfect living being is Natsu.

Full name: Etherious · Natsu · Dragneel!

END for short.

unbelievable!

Natsu couldn't believe such nonsense.

Are you END? What a joke, END is a demon that even Igneel can't destroy.

But Zeref also has an answer.

This is not destruction on a physical level, but because of love, there is no destruction.

At that time, Zeref gave Natsu to his friend, Igneel.

Let him teach Natsu dragon slaying magic.

During the time they spent together, Igneel developed feelings for Natsu, so he couldn't destroy him.

And after that, the dragons also drew up a plan.

Cultivate the Dragon Slayers, seal their powers in their bodies with the soul dragon technique, and then send the Dragon Slayers to the future.

0 · · Flowers · ·

To hit Acnologia.

As for why it was sent to the future, it was because in order to disarm the soul dragon technique, an extremely large amount of magical energy was required.

Therefore, it is necessary to go to the era of rich mana concentration.

In this project, the five selected people are Natsu, Gajeel, Wendy, Sting and Rogue.

Except for Natsu, everyone else is a helpless child.

And as Natsu's family, Zeref agreed with the plan.

Not because of Acnologia, but more because of the expectation that Natsu will become stronger in this era of abundant mana.

It is possible to destroy yourself.

So, the plan started.

The Eclipse Gate, created by Zeref, opened it with the help of a Celestial Spirit wizard named Anna.

But because of not knowing where to go to that future.

Therefore, the Anna family passed down the ancestral teachings, allowing future generations to open their doors in the era of high concentration of magic energy.

Finally, on July 7, X777, the door of the solar eclipse was opened by Lucy's mother, Layla, who was also a Celestial Spirit wizard.

Children who have crossed time, that is, on that day, left the dragon that raised them.

0 ...… 0

opened their own paths.

Still in disbelief after knowing everything, Natsu interrupted Zeref.

And angrily said that he would not believe any nonsense from Zeref.

But it all shattered the moment Zeref pierced the Book of END and Natsu was also hurt.

I am really END, the demon in the Book of Zeref…

Natsu was silent.

"If you kill me, then you, the demon in the Book of Zeref, will die too."

Zeref's words kept echoing in Natsu's mind.

Feeling the fading power of the Flame Dragon King, Natsu instantly firmed up his resolve.

He is not afraid of death!

Compared with his own death, he was more afraid of his companions dying because of his hesitation.

I'm here to fight Zeref.

He took a step, and sprinted towards Zeref.

With Igneel's final strength, Natsu swung the final blow at Zeref.

Zeref showed no sign of resistance, he just waited quietly for Natsu's final blow.

Waiting for the ultimate liberation of his contradictory life.

but...

Natsu was stopped.

"Happy" grabbed Natsu's collar tightly, even though Natsu was on fire at the moment.

Although the unbearable pain came from the hands.

But "Happy" still didn't let go, and even flew away with Natsu.

"Natsu is my friend…I will never let you die!"

"Absolutely not!"

The tearful words "Happy" seemed to wake Natsu completely.

The mind that had been swept away by anger became clear at this moment.

His thoughts returned, and Natsu, who had been thinking calmly for a long time, couldn't help but feel scared for his reckless actions just now.

I… almost lost my beloved comrades.

"Natsu…" "Happy" sitting by the stream slowly stood up.

"We'll always be friends, right…"

"Happy"'s voice trembled a little, as if he was afraid that Natsu would do such a disrespectful act of his own life again.

Natsu was stunned, then raised his head and looked at the blue cat.

He smiled slightly: "Ah…forever!" Nai.
