Fairy Tail.
Freed appeared at the guild's main entrance, battered and bruised, carrying Laxus on his back, Evergreen and Bickslow under his arms, and holding Yajima in his hand.
Freed shouted loudly, "Save... save... please save them!!!"
The guild members' expressions changed drastically upon seeing this scene.
"What happened?!"
"What's wrong with Laxus?!"
Makarov rushed over and saw that Laxus and the others had already fainted. Other members quickly took them from Freed.
"Quickly, go invite Porlyusica over!"
"I'll go!" Takeshi spoke up immediately.
Full Body Take Over: Gojo Satoru!
Takeshi quickly took over Gojo Satoru, transforming into his form in an instant.
Whoosh!
In the next moment, he used teleportation and disappeared.
"Quick! Move Laxus and the others to the infirmary!"
Everyone immediately went into action, carrying Laxus and his team into the infirmary. Almost as soon as they had brought them to the infirmary, Takeshi appeared in front of the guild with Porlyusica.
Porlyusica walked quickly into the guild, she knew that this was a moment of extreme crisis.
After a while, she finished her examination.
Makarov asked anxiously, "How are Laxus and the others? Are they still alive?"
"They are alive, but they have inhaled too many Magical Barrier Particles. This is a dangerous poison that is fatal even in small doses. It's hard to guarantee a full recovery, especially for Laxus. The contamination in his body is too severe, it's already a miracle he's still alive."
Hearing Porlyusica's words, the guild members all wore expressions of deep concern.
"Laxus... Laxus saved the entire town. If it weren't for Laxus, that town..."
Freed's face was full of pain as he explained why Laxus's contamination was so severe.
Makarov nodded and said, "I know. It's also thanks to you that everyone was brought back."
"The town was saved because of Laxus. The town... is it okay?"
"Yes. The town is safe and sound."
Makarov told a lie. He had already received news that the city had turned into Hell. Over a hundred people were dead, and the death toll was still rising sharply.
"That's good."
Hearing this, Freed finally fainted. Even in unconsciousness, his face still bore an expression of pain, as if he were fighting a painful nightmare.
"This is too much!" Lucy's tears wouldn't stop falling.
Natsu clenched his fists tightly.
"Porlyusica, is there any way to treat Laxus and the others?" Takeshi asked.
"Well... since the enemy's body contains this substance, they likely have the corresponding antibodies. If we can get their blood and bring it back, maybe we can create a vaccine." Porlyusica said after some thought.
"The enemy's blood? I understand. I will get their blood as soon as possible." Takeshi said.
Gray asked, "Wait, Takeshi, you don't know where they are. Where are you going to find them?"
Takeshi said, "Their target is the Council Members. As long as we go to where the Council Members are, they will show themselves."
"Right! I'm definitely going to catch them and take them all out!"
Hearing Takeshi say this, Natsu spoke up angrily.
Macao said, "But we don't know where those Council Members live."
The residences of Council Members were quite hidden. After all, as Magic Council Members, while their status was high, they had offended many people. Almost any Dark Guild would seek revenge if they knew a Council Member's address.
Suddenly, Loke's voice rang out. "If it's the Council Members' addresses, I happen to know a few."
"Loke?!"
"Why did you come out on your own again?"
Seeing Loke, Lucy couldn't help but complain. Among her Celestial Spirits, only Loke could open the gate himself, which made her, as his master, feel things were a bit too casual.
Loke said, "Because I had a bad feeling."
Wendy asked curiously, "Why does Loke-san know where the Council Members are?"
Loke whispered the reason into Wendy's ear, which made Wendy blush instantly. Everyone in the guild already knew the secret.
"Loke, tell me where the Council Members are."
"Okay."
Loke immediately listed the residences of the four Magic Council Members he knew.
Makarov immediately gathered everyone in the guild for a mobilization speech.
"The enemy is Tartaros, one corner of the Balam Alliance alongside Oración Seis and Grimoire Heart. However, we have already destroyed two of them, and Tartaros will be no exception. They will surely regret being foolish enough to make us their enemies."
"When a comrade is hurt, it's the same as being hurt ourselves. The blood our comrades shed is the blood flowing from our own bodies. Turn this injury, this pain, into the fighting spirit to crusade against the enemy."
"We do not act as incarnations of justice, we act according to our will. Betting on our bonds and our pride, we will eradicate the enemies of our family with all our might!"
"OHHHHHHHHHH!!!"
The guild members shouted.
The new members were also filled with indignation. Those who had recently joined the guild all admired the members of Fairy Tail. Their loyalty was not low at all, and they valued the honor of Fairy Tail greatly. If Fairy Tail was in trouble, they were in trouble.
Soon, the guild's elites were split into different teams.
Gajeel, Levy, Jet, and Droy formed one team.
Natsu, Lucy, and Wendy formed another.
Gray and Juvia formed a team.
And then Takeshi was a team by himself.
Others remained on standby at the guild. After all, Yajima was still at the guild, and Tartaros might not let them off.
As for Takeshi, Makarov had originally intended to assign him teammates, but Takeshi refused. This wasn't a standard mission, the matter was extremely urgent, and he would be much faster acting alone.
"Move out!"
With Makarov's command, all teams set off in their respective directions.
