The invisible magic flowed into Rabbit Maru's body along with the dark arrow, instantly erupting within him.
*Pfft! Pfft! Pfft!*
Dozens of wounds appeared simultaneously on Rabbit Maru's limbs and internal organs, spraying blood. Rabbit Maru's eyes gradually lost focus, and he collapsed to the ground, unable to get up.
This ruthless method sent chills down everyone's spine. Looking at the expressions of the Fairy Tail members below, Joseph finally felt a sense of satisfaction and said smugly:
"Rabbit Maru won't die for now. I'll take him back and torture him properly, so that everyone will know that there's only one fate for betraying me, Joseph."
"That is the state of being unable to live and unable to die!"
No sooner had he finished speaking than a voice quickly echoed, "Lord Joseph is wise! We admire you! Thor swears to follow you to the death!"
Thor's flattery pleased Joseph, making him feel a sense of satisfaction towards this good-for-nothing who had been defeated by Fairy Tail.
A sycophant is fine to have around for amusement.
"In that case, Thor, go and bring me the Rabbit Balls."
Upon receiving Joseph's order, Thor's face was filled with ecstatic joy. He understood that his guild master no longer cared about his previous defeat, and he instantly became smug, striding towards Rabbit Maru's location.
With Joseph's instant kill of Rabbit Maru as a precedent, Thor didn't believe anyone would dare to stop him, and no one would dare to offend the great man known as the "Ten Saints".
However, Fairy Tail is not a guild that fears power.
Just as Thor was about to grab Rabbit Maru, a hand burning with purple flames pressed down on his shoulder.
"Sorry, but I found this young man quite pleasing to the eye, and I was even thinking of asking him to instruct my son in fire magic." Macao pushed Thor aside and shielded Rabbit Maru behind him.
Thor staggered a few steps before regaining his balance. He couldn't understand why Macao, who had just been an enemy of Tutu Maru, was now trying to stop him from taking the person away.
Thor, remembering the task Joseph had given him, hardened his expression and decided to forcibly take Rabbit Maru away.
However, the next moment, Thor was startled by the gazes coming from all directions. It was the Fairy Tail members staring at him. Thor knew that if he dared to make any move against Marcao, he would only be met with a group beating from Fairy Tail.
If I don't follow Joseph's orders, I will definitely be punished when I return.
But if they forcibly take Tsubasa Maru away, I will die right now.
Thor was sweating profusely, caught in a dilemma.
"Damn trash!"
Looking at the scene below, Joseph was so angry that he even swore. However, seeing how united Fairy Tail was, Joseph thought of something, and the anger on his face immediately turned into a sinister smile.
At Joseph's command, the Magic Cluster Cannon Jupiter rotated its muzzle and aimed at the city.
"Fairy Tail, if you dare to resist, Magnolia will suffer."
"mean!"
"Shameless!"
"Joseph, you son of a bitch!"
"..."
When they saw that Joseph was threatening them with the lives of the city and its inhabitants, the Fairy Tail members were furious but helpless.
Mira, the only one who could block Jupiter's cannon, was already seriously injured and could no longer even activate the [Receive] spell.
Joseph laughed heartily and commanded his men to launch another attack on Fairy Tail.
The steel figure then questioned Joseph, "Wait, Master, defeating Fairy Tail like this isn't a fair victory..."
"Gajeel! Are you questioning me?"
"Don't forget, when you were scavenging for food like a dog on the roadside, who took you in and gave you a bite to eat?"
Joseph was already in a bad mood because of the betrayal of Rabbit Maru, so he spoke coldly to Gajeel, who was hesitant: "Gajeel, if you are really that moral, then listen to me obediently. That's called repaying a debt of gratitude!"
"If you understand, why aren't you doing your job?!"
Gajeel's expression shifted, but he ultimately chose to obey Joseph's orders, looking at Nob, who stood fearlessly in front of him.
Fairy Tail...what a great guild.
Unfortunately... we're not on the same path.
The Iron Dragon Sword slashed down diagonally, leaving a trail of bright red blood on Nob's body.
Seeing Gajeel make his move, the other mages of Phantom Lord no longer hesitated and launched an attack on Fairy Tail. Because Joseph threatened the lives of the residents of Magnolia, the Fairy Tail members dared not fight back and could only passively take the beating.
The fairies fell one by one, and Thor turned to Kana and Warren, ready to wash away the humiliation he had just suffered on them.
Mira is also a key target. If we can take down Fairy Tail's S-class mage, even though it would be taking advantage of someone in distress, we can still get Joseph's reward.
Elfman desperately shielded Mira with his body; he couldn't let these people hurt his sister. Even though he was beaten black and blue, Elfman still supported himself and stood in front of his sister.
Mira was extremely anxious about her companions' suffering, but there was nothing she could do at the moment. The faint rumble of thunder in the sky was like a drumbeat, striking her heart again and again.
etc!
It's a sunny day today, where did the thunder come from?
Suddenly realizing something, Mira's face lit up with a joyful smile, and she shouted at the top of her lungs, "The energy source for the magic cluster cannon is in that castle!"
"Mira's out of her mind? Isn't that obvious?"
Thor mocked as he manipulated the sand and stones to torment Kana, leaving countless tiny wounds on the drunken girl's body with small, sharp pebbles.
Seeing Cana struggling to hold on, Thor boasted smugly, "Our 'Phantom MK-2' castle is built with magical materials and has top-notch defense. Only S-rank combatants can take it down..."
Before he could finish speaking, a thunderclap suddenly sounded in the sky.
Thunder on a sunny day?
Just as Thor looked up in confusion, Cana's fist was already upon him. Covered in Armament Haki, the fist, imbued with Cana's anger, slammed Thor to the ground.
Thor covered his swollen right cheek, his voice tinged with panic, "You actually dared to fight back! Don't you care about Magnolia's safety?!"
Kana smiled nonchalantly, "Do you know that Magnolia has a special kind of weather?"
Before Thor could even understand, a thick bolt of golden lightning, accompanied by a sharp, ear-piercing roar, suddenly pierced through the walls of the magical castle "Ghost MK-2".
A deafening roar!
Thor's boasted "Spectre MK-2" was ripped open, and golden lightning blasted an energy magic crystal into dust with unstoppable force.
With one of the four energy crystals destroyed, the magic-gathering cluster cannon Jupiter aimed at the city immediately ceased operation.
Joseph's face was grim. It wasn't that he was incapable of stopping the lightning from destroying the magic castle, but a threatening presence had arrived.
A figure appeared atop the castle amidst the lightning. He was arrogant, with short blond hair and a black overcoat, surrounded by crackling bolts of electricity.
This is the unique weather pattern of Magnolia.
Sunny turning to Laxus.
