Chapter 36: Dragon Slayer Mystery Defeats Crocodile

"What is that? It's like a sandstorm tsunami!" Nami and Vivi were stunned.

"This kind of attack is unheard of! The desert truly gives an advantage to those who control sand," Vivi said, her face turning pale with anxiety.

"The unique environment of the desert amplifies the power of sand users. This attack is indeed formidable," Erza remarked, her expression serious.

"Erza, what about the president? Are he in danger?" Nami asked, her voice trembling.

"No, the president knows what he's doing. He has the speed to easily dodge such an attack," Juvia reassured,.

"It's fortunate that this is an uninhabited desert. If there were a city in the way, the president would have no choice but to face it head-on," Erza explained.

Despite the explanations provided by Erza and Mirajan, Nami and Vivi couldn't help but feel relieved. They believed that Su Yu would easily dodge the incoming sandstorm. However, reality proved to be different.

Contrary to their expectations, Su Yu chose not to evade the attack. He refused to back down, showing his determination as a true warrior. In his mind, stepping aside would be a sign of weakness.

With a resounding boom and rumble, Su Yu unleashed his full power. The Dragon Slayer magic surged within him, and the bright thunderbolts became an unstoppable force, resembling an immense ocean of power.

With a sharp roar, Crocodile shouted, "Become nothing but dry bones in this desert!" The massive desert tsunami surged towards Su Yu.

Su Yu stood on the ground without attempting to dodge or evade. His expression remained neutral, devoid of any joy or sadness. As he raised his hands, the sea of thunder around him surged and boiled with immense power.

"Dragon Slayer Profound Truth!!!"

The formidable Thunder Dragon Slayer Magic, a Lost Magic, erupted for the first time in the pirate world. The vast ocean of golden thunder clashed head-on with the majestic desert tsunami. The world seemed to fade in comparison to the sheer intensity of this clash. Time and space appeared to freeze at this moment.

A deafening roar reverberated as the collision shook the heavens. The most powerful and radiant thunder pierced through the loose desert tsunami. Countless electric serpents snaked through the gravel, indiscriminately attacking everything in their path.

While Logia ability users' elementalization grants them great defense, it is not invincible. Physical attacks can only disperse their elemental form. However, elemental attacks can indeed inflict damage. Even if Crocodile attempts to hide his body within the vast sea of sand, it proves futile. Su Yu's Dragon Slayer Profound Truth Thunder is targeted at the entire expanse of sand, leaving nowhere to hide.

"How?"

As the desert tsunami crumbled, a charred and injured figure was sent flying through the air, crashing onto the ground with a resounding thud. It lay there motionless, unable to rise again.

The battle had come to an end.

Shichibukai Crocodile, once a formidable opponent, had been defeated.

In a swift motion, Su Yu, now victorious, returned to Fairy Tail. He calmly picked up a teacup, feeling its warmth against his hand, and took a sip.

A profound silence engulfed the vast deck, holding its breath for the next moment to come.

"Oh, oh, oh! The president emerged victorious!" Nami cheered joyfully.

"It's incredible how the president chose to face him head-on. He truly possesses great determination and strength!" Erza exclaimed.

"It's only natural. After all, he is the president of our Fairy Tail family. His victory was expected!" Mirajane smiled.

As Juvia opened her arms, she was about to step forward to join in the celebration.

At that moment, a graceful figure rushed over and embraced Su Yu tightly.

"Thank you so much, President Su Yu. You've saved this country!" Vivi expressed her gratitude sincerely.

This time, Vivi's red lips left a distinct mark on Su Yu's face, not as a form of intimidation like in Whiskey Peak or as a means to provoke Juvia's helplessness.

Instead, it was a genuine expression of gratitude, as she willingly initiated a kiss to convey her thanks.

"Wow~"

Surprised by Vivi's unexpected and bold gesture, Nami, Erza, and Mirajan couldn't help but turn their heads simultaneously, directing their gaze towards Juvia.

"Why are you looking at me like that?" Juvia smiled softly, maintaining her composure despite the curious gazes directed at her.

It was only natural for Vivi to express her gratitude to Su Yu with a kiss on the cheek, but Juvia had already experienced a deep connection with the president.

She had shared intimate moments and experienced a bond that surpassed a simple gesture of appreciation.

The relationship between Juvia and Su Yu went beyond what others could comprehend.

As Juvia pondered the situation, a sense of superiority welled up within her.

"Juvia, do you really not mind?" Nami couldn't help but ask Juvia.

"It's alright, I'm already an adult! I'm not like you young girls!" Juvia replied with a confident smile on her face.

Nami: "..."

She always feel that Juvia's words, along with her expression, can be quite infuriating, but she can't help it. She doesn't want to completely surrender and compete on the same level as Juvia just to prove herself.

Just as Nami was lost in her thoughts, flashes of light flickered in the air.

"Hahahaha, Subarashii! It's truly Subarashii! This is incredible! It's an absolutely amazing battle! I'm certain that this will become major news that shakes the world!"

The loud laughter, filled with excitement and enthusiasm, caught the attention of Su Yu and his group.

Erza's gaze abruptly lifted, her sharp eyes fixed on the origin of the laughter.

"Is that... a bird?" Erza couldn't help but be puzzled.

"A bird that wears suits and leather shoes? And it can talk?" Mirajane tilted her head, looking adorable and confused.

Nami, Vivi, Juvia, and the others were also wide-eyed with astonishment, not knowing what to make of the bird-like man in a suit.

However, Su Yu, upon seeing the birdman, immediately recognized who he was, despite being unsure of why he was there. Nevertheless, he saw this as a great opportunity for Fairy Tail to become famous..

With a flutter of his wings, the birdman gracefully glided through the air and landed steadily on the deck of Fairy Tail.

"Ahem, it's a pleasure to meet all of you from Fairy Tail. I am Morgans, the president of World Economic News. I would like to request an interview with all of you!"
