"Jose, you've colluded with a Dark Guild! This time, I won't let you off; you're courting death!"
Makarov looked at Jose, who was now completely engulfed in darkness, then turned to see the injured Guild Members valiantly resisting, and the destroyed streets, his anger immense.
The magic power throughout his body could no longer be suppressed; it erupted, and with a swift stride, he unleashed a punch towards Jose.
Jose's mind was still filled with wild thoughts at this moment.
Unaware, he was violently struck, sent flying like a cannonball, plunging straight towards the sea surface, skimming it and raising two walls of water, before finally extending two demonic wings from his back to slowly come to a stop.
"Makarov, let's see how long you can last!"
Jose's demonic wings vibrated, and he immediately accelerated towards Makarov.
"Dark Stream!"
Countless black-purple beams rushed towards Zorn and his group. Makarov quickly held his hands out horizontally: "Light Magic: Light Rain."
Similarly, countless golden beams shot out, clashing with the black-purple beams. The moment the two types of beams collided in the air, a huge energy shockwave was generated, violently raging around them.
The two Ten Wizard Saints immediately rushed at each other again, beginning a frantic battle, causing immense destruction to the surroundings.
And it was clear Jose had the upper hand, even speaking in a relaxed tone: "Jupiter can launch again in 15 minutes. I wonder who will stop it then, haha."
Zorn looked at Erza, who was sprawled on the ground beside him, unable to get up for a long time. Then he looked up at Jose Bora, who was still boasting above. He clenched his fists tightly, his heart sinking. It seemed his appearance had made the situation even more complicated.
After having just blocked three concentrated Jupiter Magic Cannon blasts, his magic power was greatly depleted, but he still needed to ensure Erza's safety first.
"Master, you might need to hold on for a while. I'll take Erza to Porlyusica for treatment first."
"Hmm, leave it to me. Zorn, the other Guild Members will be in your hands later."
Master Makarov was still furiously attacking Jose, not even turning his head, but his tone made Zorn and Erza feel uneasy.
Zorn slowly got up, walked to Erza's side, helped her up, and then spoke to the Master, who was fiercely battling Jose.
"I'm fine, I can still fight." Erza used the support to get up, her eyes glaring fiercely at Jose Bora, her voice very low.
"Don't push yourself. Go get treated first. I'll handle this with the Master."
"But..."
"Listen to me. Once you've recovered a bit, go help the other Guild Members. Those scumbags outside are yours to deal with."
Zorn's tone was very gentle, but when he mentioned the invaders outside, the temperature immediately dropped, and the killing intent in his eyes was very obvious.
"Okay, I understand." Erza looked at Zorn's murderous expression, then at the Master struggling in the sea, and finally agreed dejectedly.
Just as Zorn and Erza were about to use magic to teleport, Jose tried to rush over to stop them, but the Master blocked him.
As Zorn disappeared from his spot, he thought: "Good words can't convince a fated-to-die person. Third time's the charm, Jose, you will die today."
—Separator—
On the other side, Natsu and the others, following the previously discussed plan, entered the town under the leadership of Mirajane and Cana, fighting against the Phantom Lord Guild Members.
The town residents, led by other Guild Members, also evacuated the town area.
"Fire Dragon's Roar!"
"ICEMAKE: Iron Cavalry!"
"Smoke Magic: Smoke Assault!"
Suddenly, thick smoke billowed from various parts of the town. Although the Phantom Lord Guild Members were far weaker than the Fairy Tail Guild Members in terms of strength, their numbers were immense, making for a difficult and inseparable battle for a time.
"Boom~" A huge sound came from the direction of the Fairy Tail Guild in the distance.
The Fairy Tail Members all looked anxiously in that direction, but they bit their lips and endured, then turned to continue fighting fiercely, their attacks becoming more ruthless as they vented their injustice.
"Damn it, I'm going back to check! Happy!"
"Aye!"
After defeating an enemy, Natsu immediately wanted to run back, but just as he was about to turn, he was stopped by Gray and Lucy.
"Natsu, leave that to Zorn, the Master, and Erza!"
Gray's expression was also very worried at this moment, and he was equally anxious to go back and help, but they also had more important things to do, and trusting each other was the most important thing.
"That's right, Natsu! Our main goal is to deal with these enemies." Lucy tried hard to persuade Natsu from the side.
Just then, it inexplicably began to drizzle in this area. Natsu, Gray, and Lucy also looked around confusedly, wondering why only this area was raining.
"Pitter-patter."
"Tap-tap-tap~"
Juvia, expressionless, walked slowly, holding an umbrella.
"Who are you!"
Natsu, Gray, and Lucy immediately took up battle stances, solemnly watching Juvia approach.
"You're Lucy, right!" Juvia ignored Gray's question and didn't care about their hostility towards her at the moment, still asking the only female, Lucy, expressionlessly.
"Fire Dragon's Iron Fist!" Natsu directly lunged forward, unleashing a punch. Juvia paid no attention to the incoming Iron Fist, still waiting for Lucy's answer.
Natsu's attack passed right through half of Juvia's body, turning entirely into steam and dissipating, but Juvia remained unharmed.
"I, I am."
"Water Magic: Water Lock!" As soon as Lucy confirmed her identity, Juvia immediately extended her hand and released magic, gathering the rainwater to trap Lucy inside a sphere of water.
"Capture successful!" After saying this, Juvia restored herself using the rainwater.
"What?"
"Damn it, ICEMAKE: Lancer!"
Gray stood beside the water sphere, instantly releasing ICEMAKE. Countless spearheads rushed towards Juvia, obscuring vision, but they were equally ineffective, passing through her body without causing any damage.
"Physical attacks can't harm me at all!"
"Who said I was attacking you!"
Gray said calmly, slightly turning his body, only to realize Lucy was already gone.
"Now it's just you and me. Let's settle this." Gray slightly crouched, his hands together, cold air subtly spreading around him, his gaze fixed on Juvia.
Lucy was now being carried by Happy, flying into the sky, with Natsu following close behind.
However, at a corner, a sudden flame shot straight towards Happy in the sky.
Seeing this, Natsu immediately used the momentum to leap into the air, devouring the flame midway.
A samurai-like Totomaru appeared from the shadows, and the two exchanged glances, taking up battle stances.
Although Happy was worried, he still endured, carrying Lucy towards Porlyusica.
Other areas also saw clashes with their respective powerful opponents.
Elfman VS Zorn
