Chapter 22: Training / The Magic Games

After the core members and Jin came back to Fairy Tail. They all celebrated and caught up with the guild members.

They found out that they were the weakest guild, and a new guild, that appeared while they were away, took over the strongest position. There name is Saber-tooth.

All while this was happening, Fairy Tail's reputation was sinking at a high rate....they were viewed as garbage compared to the other guilds.

They were all talking in the guild hall discussing who 'Saber-tooth' was:

Natsu: "Who's Saber-tooth again", he asked, obviously not listening the last time.

After someone explained to him that they were the best, and Fairy Tale was dead last. They needed to find a way to increase their magic power...and so they decided to have a training camp.

Natsu: " Hey Jin! are you gonna train with u~?", he asked with a smile.

The others were also curious and looked over at Jin.

"Hmm~, I'm gonna train by myself, thanks for asking though", he replied.

"Ah~, no worries, after I train I'm gonna beat you! So you better be ready!", Natsu proclaimed.

"Is that so~?, I'll be waiting then", Jin replied as he turned around leaving the guild.

Lucy: "I wonder what training Jin is gonna do", she asked.

Wendy: "Hmm~, me too, even without magic he's the strongest for beating Acnologia".

They rest nodded when they heard her comment, as they looked up in the air, seemingly remembering what happened that day.

SHIVER

They all felt cold when they remembered the face of ecstasy Jin and Acnologia had.

While everyone was training on the beach, Jin decided to train in areas with high intensities: whether the place was extremely cold or hot or the air pressure was immense.

There was 3 months till the Magic Games, but that wasn't only Jin's goal....he was preparing for the future as-well as the Games, as he began to wonder what the demon he was fighting earlier, was doing now..

<3 Months Later>

Jin has been training a-lot and has gained a higher resistance to temperature, he's also gotten stronger.

Right now he's on his way back to the guild, and is almost there...in the distance he can see that everyone else has arrived as they just walked in-side the guild hall. After a minute, he finally reached the door and opened it.

Right now Jin was wearing a ragged white-t shirt with light blue pants and a red jacket on his waist.

BANG!

Jin opened the door to see Makarov choosing the members who will be representing the guild.

Makarov: " The members going will be-", he stopped to see Jin at the door, when he saw him his smile brightened.

Jin: " I'm back".

Everyone turned to see Jin and were happy he was back. They knew with Jin's help they could win the Magic Games.

Makarov: "As I was saying~, the people representing the guild will be Natsu, Erza, Grey, Jin and Wendy~".

Jin chuckled as he seen Natsu getting excited, everyone was happy and was getting ready to go to Crocus, where The Grand Magic Games was gonna occur.

<>

Jin was with the others in the middle of the square as the Master was registering them in for the Games. When Makarov came back, people taunted Jin and the guild as they stated that , "Sabertooth was gonna win the competition".

Jin was getting annoyed and decided to ignore them.

Makarov then gave them the rule book after stating, "The competition was tomorrow".

Levy: " I checked every year's event and discovered there isn't really any consistency, they always change it".

Natsu: " Great! It's more fun that way, I just hope there's some kind of fight~", he said.

Levy: " To sum it up, there is 3 rules: (1). The master can't participate. (2). The members must all have the guild's emblem. (3). And the rules of the event won't be told until the competition. There's also a rule where you have to return to your inn at 12.

Erza: " A curfew huh?", she questioned wondering why there would be one.

Jin: " Well~, I'm gonna go bed...see you guys later".

The others ran away to explore the city, while Jin and Erza went towards their, 'hotel', 'The Honey-Bone Inn.

"6 Bed's huh~ don't mind if I do", Jin said before he jumped on-to one, sleeping instantly.

Erza: 'How can you go sleep so fast', she thought, shocked at him already snoring.

While Jin was already asleep, Erza was checking the room to ease her suspicions, of what was really going on.

Erza: " Nothing appears to be out of the ordinary", she said lowly trying not to wake up Jin.

<>

While Jin was asleep and Erza was thinking; Natsu, Lucy, Grey and Happy were walking and were surprised when they saw Juvia.

After telling them that the entire guild was going to cheer them on...Leon from Lamia Scale came and made a bet with Gray after stating that they would win.

Grey: " We happen to have two aces in the hole: Jin and Erza".

Leon: " I know Erza but who is Jin".

Grey : " You'll see~", he said mocking him.

<>

ZZZZZ!!!! ZZZZZ!!!

While Jin was snoring loudly, Erza was thinking about Jellal until Ichiya from Blue Pegasus came into the room, shocking Erza, to which she punched him..

BOOOOOM!!

Erza: " CAN'T YOU RESPECT MY PRIVACY!", she screamed.

As she sighed, 'The Trimens' form Blue Pegasus came, talking loudly to Erza.

<>

Jin was sleeping and since he loved a good fight...he was dreaming about one... he imagined being surrounded by millions and millions of 'strong' creatures all wanting to take his life.

ZZZ!!

He smiled in his sleep subconsciously...but when he heard people in the background he woke up and looked around the room..

After seeing 'The Trimen' in his room talking to Erza, whilst also ruining his dream he punched all of them out of the room...

BANG! BANG! BANG!

"Don't disturb my sleep", he said with veins on his head before turning to Erza.

"Isn't it late? where are the others~", he asked as he yawned.

" They aren't back yet~ Jin can I ask you something?".

"Go ahead", he replied.

"When you were fighting Acnologia...you looked like you were having fun....didn't you know it was dangerous?".

"Hehehe~, when I'm fighting my blood just boils~, i never feel more alive", he said with a smile on his face. " It's like finding something or someone you love and you always want to be with that person or do that action.... in my case it's fighting", he continued.

Erza looked at his face full of happiness, and then thought about Jellal, a smile came to her face.

"See~, your probably thinking about someone you like right? The feeling is the same but in my case it's excitement", he stated as his teeth was revealed as his smile widened.

The two talked for hours, until the others came late, to which Erza lectured them...

<>

After a couple of minutes, the preliminary rounds were revealed much to the shock of the others, as they discovered that there was actually 113 Guilds taking part...and they had to lessen it down to 8 Guilds.

A stair case was revealed and they were told to run up to the Labyrinth it connected to in the sky. With Wendy missing, Elf-man had to take her place for the round and was lucky enough to be allowed.

They ran up the stair case and finally got inside. When they got inside, they looked at the confusing environment. The area even moved itself....while they were inside, they noticed they weren't the only ones.

As a Guild called Twilight Ogre, ran up to them with a vendetta to settle against them.

Twilight Ogre Member 1: "You Fairy Tail punks are going down!".

Twilight Ogre Member 2: "Your gonna pay for the embarrassment we suffered".

Jin looked at them approaching and sighed.

There was five members...Natsu and the others were gonna attack but Jin stepped forward.

TAP TAP.

Twilight Ogre Member 1: " Who's this? I don't sense any magic in him~, does Fairy Tail bring in Homeless people nowadays".

Jin was amused, but couldn't be bothered fighting them seriously.

Since he was in One Piece, he always wanted to get Conqueror Haki but couldn't. But after learning Renewal Taekwondo and perfecting a-lot of its techniques, he remembered a technique that could make people unconscious by releasing a clap to generate reverberating air waves in order to knock out the opponent.

He had never used it before because he didn't see the need for it but decided to use it now.

While they were approaching, he spread his arms and lowered his knees, before swinging his arms before they clapped each-other.

CLAP!! OOOOOOO!!!

<Renewal Taekwondo : Air Pressure>

They all held their ears in agony before the fell to the floor.

The air pressure was directed to them only and didn't affect the guild-mates, as they watched in surprise, before focusing on their objective.

"That was too easy~", Jin said.

"Come on guys! we gotta find the exit and beat Sabertooth", said Erza

<>

The Sky Labyrinth was shifting, but somehow they made it to the exit and reached....8TH PLACE!!!

They were all shocked that they just made it, but still happy because it meant they could restore their glory.

<>

It was the next day and the Guild members were in the arena getting ready for the opening ceremony.

Everyone was wearing clothes with the Fairy Tail Insignia with a blue colour, except Gray, and Jin.

Jin was wearing a white-t shirt with the emblem of Fairy Tail because he couldn't be bothered to wear blue, before the event started he was asleep on the floor, dreaming about fighting someone strong..

<>

The arena was bustling, no-one could hear their own voice, it packed thousands and thousands as they all were excited for the Games.

The presenters were getting everything ready and the commentators were excited and couldn't wait for it too start.

Finally it was time for Fairy Tail to come out... Jin got up slowly as he walked in line with: Natsu, Grey, Erza and Elf-man, with his hands behind his head, seemingly unbothered compared to the others.

Commentator: " In eight place, we have an old-school bunch of wild wizards who want to take first place by force! It's Fairy TAIL!".

BOOOO!!!!

They were all booed at, much to the shock of them, but the guild in the stands all cheered for them.

The commentator introduced all the teams and kept on going until first place, while Blue Pegasus talked with Fairy Tail. When Raven Tail was introduced, Makarov was not happy, but it all fell to deaf ears.

Finally it was time for second place... during the whole time, Jin was asleep on the grounds.

Commentator: "And for Runner up, It seems that Fairy Tail has 2 teams...INTRODUCING FAIRY TAIL TEAM B!!".

Mirajane, Gajeel, Laxus, Mystogan(Jellal) and Juvia.

The guild in the stands all wondered which team would win because Natsu said "he wouldn't pull any punches", meaning he would go all out to win.

They all stared each-other down, but it was finally time..

Commentator: " AND NOW LAST, BUT CERTAINLY NOT LEAST, GIVE IT UP TO FIRST PLACE'S SABERTOOTH".

WOOOOOOO!!!!

The crowd went wild, and was eating the competition up when it didn't even begin.

<>

While they were walking on the stadium, in the middle of the grounds...Jin laid asleep facing towards the sun...

ZZZZ!!!! ZZZZZ!!!!

When Rocker from Quatro Cerberus saw Jin snoring as if the competition was boring he approached him and sent a kick his way, because he was annoyed that he was looking down on them.

<>

When the Fairy Tail members in the stands and on the grounds saw him try and kick Jin, they all thought:

'IDIOT!!'.

And they were right, because even in his sleep, Jin sensed something coming... as he rolled his body to the left, before springing up off the ground all in the matter of a second. He didn't waste any time, and opened his eyes slightly, before vanishing...

He emerged right in-front of Rocker, giving him no time to react, as he coated his leg with Haki, before jumping up and swinging his left leg towards Rocker's face on his right side.

<Renewal Front Hwechook + Haki>

BOOOOOM!!

The kick packed so much power, that the audience had their mouths open, simply and utterly shocked.

This all happened in a matter of seconds... as Rocker was flung into the stands...unconscious..

<>

Mavis watching from the stands was also shocked, "Makarov who is that... I don't sense any magic from him?".

Makarov then sighed looking at the scene, " His name is Jin... he doesn't use any magic".

<>

When members of Raven Tail saw this, they thought fighting Jin would be, 'fun', because they didn't know what was coming their way.

And members of Sabertooth looked at Jin with interest, thinking that he was quite strong....

Jin stood up and patted the dust off of him he got from sleeping on the floor, as he looked at the guild mates , "It still hasn't started?"...
