On the vast sea, there existed a huge area of ice.
The frozen area was like an ice island.
And on that 'ice island', a frozen wave dozens of feet high and hundreds of meters wide stood upon it, like an iceberg.
Zooming in on that 'ice island', the Water Dragon God can be seen instantly transform from human form into a dragon.
The dragon's body was azure blue, with a pair of dragon wings on its back, and its size was exceptionally massive.
This Water Dragon God was even larger than the Black Dragon Acnologia that Erza, Wendy, and the others had seen on Tenrou Island.
Although larger size doesn't necessarily mean greater strength, this massive form exerted an exceptionally terrifying pressure on humans.
Seeing the Water Dragon God suddenly transform into a dragon, Erza's expression changed drastically.
She had been charging towards the Water Dragon God.
But upon seeing the Water Dragon God before her, she immediately stopped.
"Roar-"
The Water Dragon God violently flapped the dragon wings on his back, letting out a skyward roar.
Along with his roar, an ear-splitting sonic wave, mixed with violent air currents, spread out in all directions.
Under the impact of the sonic wave and air currents, the entire ice surface shook violently. Wendy, Erza, and Mirajane all covered their ears simultaneously.
At the same time, the frozen giant wave beside the Water Dragon God was shattered by his dragon wings.
For a moment, a large amount of broken ice, like falling rocks in the mountains, plummeted downward.
"Danger!"
Wendy and Mirajane, seeing a huge piece of ice falling towards Erza, their expressions changed dramatically, and they immediately shouted.
Although Wendy and Mirajane wanted to save Erza, there simply wasn't enough time or space to do so.
Just as the huge ice block was about to hit Erza, Kenichi's figure appeared beside Erza as if by teleportation, grabbed Erza, and swiftly retreated.
Boom-
The moment Kenichi carried Erza away from the ice surface, the icy debris smashed down where Erza had been standing.
Seeing Kenichi rescue Erza, Mirajane and Wendy both breathed a sigh of relief.
"Leave this guy to me. This dragon will be handled by me, the Dragon Slayer!"
Kenichi put Erza down from his arms, then looked at the Water Dragon God before him with a fighting spirit.
"Be careful then!" Erza said to Kenichi, then retreated to the side along with Wendy and Mirajane.
"Dragon Transformation!"
Facing the Water Dragon God, Kenichi didn't dare neglect and directly activated the Dragon Transformation attribute he had previously obtained from Elefseria.
Bzzzt-
As the Dragon Transformation attribute was activated, violent crimson flames instantly erupted around Kenichi's body.
Golden lightning flickered intermittently within the flames.
And Kenichi's right arm transformed into a dragon's claw, while dragon wings appeared on his back.
Although Kenichi couldn't achieve a complete Dragon Transformation yet, even a partial transformation significantly increased his power.
"What is this?!"
The Water Dragon God's envoy over there, seeing Kenichi take this form, her expression changed dramatically.
But the Water Dragon God laughed heartily.
"Interesting, interesting..."
While laughing, the Water Dragon God's massive dragon claw descended towards Kenichi below like a crushing force.
Whoosh-
Watching the dragon claw rapidly enlarge in his view, the partially transformed Kenichi moved his feet.
Bang-
The already melted ice under his feet instantly shattered.
And Kenichi's body, under the force of this powerful recoil, shot out explosively.
Boom-
Soon, the Water Dragon God's massive dragon claw landed where Kenichi had been.
At that moment, a terrifyingly loud noise reverberated through the air.
Along with this sound, violent air currents, mixed with a large amount of ice fragments, surged out in all directions.
The Water Dragon God's envoy and Erza's group were all affected by these violent air currents.
In this terrifying air current, Erza and the others were like a small boat in the ocean, likely to be swept away at any moment.
While resisting the air current, the Water Dragon God's envoy also showed a look of triumph.
"Before the Water Dragon God, any human will only be trampled like a small insect!"
As soon as the envoy's words fell, the partially transformed Kenichi, who had shot up into the sky, instantly turned into a stream of fiery light and charged towards the Water Dragon God.
Under the combined buffs of Heavenly Body Magic + Wendy's Enchantment Magic + Lightning Dragon Slayer Magic, the partially transformed Kenichi's speed reached an incredible level.
Before the Water Dragon God could react, Kenichi had already rushed to the space above Water Dragon God's head.
Kenichi didn't hesitate… the dragon fist wrapped in crimson flames and golden lightning, in a slam-dunk motion, directly and fiercely struck the Water Dragon God's head.
"Lightning Fire Dragon's Iron Fist!"
The moment Kenichi's fist struck the Water Dragon God's massive head, a loud noise sounded in the air.
The heavily struck Water Dragon God's massive head jerked downward.
And the ice surface under his feet, impacted by the tremendous force, instantly shattered and collapsed.
"Water Dragon God-sama!"
Seeing this human actually hit the Water Dragon God, the envoy over there was both shocked and furious.
She was shocked that this human could actually counterattack the Water Dragon God.
She was furious that this human had harmed the Water Dragon God.
While the envoy was in a mix of shock and anger, Kenichi's mood wasn't great either.
He hadn't held back in this strike, but the Water Dragon God didn't seem to suffer any substantial damage.
Although Kenichi's attack didn't injure the Water Dragon God, the Water Dragon God felt his dignity had been violated.
He roared angrily and frantically activated the terrifying magic power within his body.
"Roar-"
Accompanied by the Water Dragon God's dragon roar, the already battered ice surface completely shattered.
Then, massive water columns burst through the ice surface from the sea below.
"Human, the game ends here!"
The Water Dragon God roared in a deep voice, then opened his large mouth.
Bzzzt-
The several water columns that had broken through the ice surface converged above the Water Dragon God's head, forming a spinning water sphere.
"Oh no!"
Erza, seeing the water sphere containing immense magic power continuously expanding, her expression changed dramatically.
Without any hesitation, she immediately activated her magic power.
"Requip!"
In an instant, Erza changed into her Heaven's Wheel Armor, then, taking Wendy and Mirajane with her, shot directly up into the sky.
"Disappear!"
The Water Dragon God spat, and the water sphere containing terrifying magic power shot towards Kenichi like a shockwave.
