"It seems he wasn't very resilient; he's already dead."
Feeling Azuma's presence vanish, Adam immediately stopped the continuous attack of his Senju and dispelled his Wood Release.
If he kept fighting, he was afraid he would sink the entire Tenrou Island, which would be a bit awkward.
He came here mainly to save people, not to cause trouble.
Although Azuma controlled Tenrou Island with magic and could merge into the trees of Tenrou Island to avoid attacks, he couldn't move at high speed using the trees.
Therefore, as long as he launched a wide-area, covering attack, it would be easy to include him.
"Who exactly are you?"
At this moment, even the usually carefree Happy realized that the Natsu standing here now seemed to have a big problem.
The terrifying magic just now was something Natsu couldn't possibly unleash, not to mention the previous healing, flying, and teleportation.
"I am indeed not Natsu. You can think of it as Natsu using his Take Over magic to receive me into his body, and then I'm helping him fight.
In an hour, Natsu will regain control of his body, and he will tell you the reason then."
Adam walked in front of the group and applied the Light-Heavy Rock Jutsu to each of them.
"Now, let's go find everyone else first."
Mirajane, Lisanna, and Wendy felt their bodies lighten, and they actually flew directly into the air with Adam's momentum.
The three cats also spread their wings and followed closely.
They didn't press further, because they could feel Adam's goodwill, and indeed, they needed to find everyone first and figure out how to repel Grimoire Heart's invasion.
"It's Elfman and Evergreen."
Soon, they discovered the second battlefield: Mirajane's brother, Elfman, who also used Take Over magic, and Evergreen, of the Thunder God Tribe, who used petrification magic.
The two were being brutally beaten by Rustyrose of Grimoire Heart, who used the Lost magic, Arc of Embodiment.
"Wait for me here."
Adam teleported in front of the Guardian Beast that was about to finish off Elfman and Evergreen, kicked it to pieces, and then threw a ki blast at Rustyrose.
"Golden Shield!"
Seeing this, Rustyrose immediately manifested a golden shield that could withstand anything and held it in front of him.
He didn't know why Natsu appeared here, and even defeated his Guardian Beast in one blow, but he wasn't worried, because he had even stronger Embodiment magic he hadn't used yet.
"Boom!"
The next second, Rustyrose and his golden shield turned to dust in the terrifying explosion of the ki blast.
Although Adam only threw a seemingly small ki blast, its actual power was enough to blow the entire Tenrou Island sky-high.
However, Adam's control over his ki was extremely strong now, so he confined the power of the ki blast to an extremely small area.
Even if Rustyrose had manifested a hundred golden shields, he couldn't have blocked this ki blast.
"Continue."
He picked up the stunned Elfman and Evergreen, teleported back into the air, and similarly applied the Light-Heavy Rock Jutsu to them, and they continued on their way.
Afterward, they encountered Lucy's Celestial Spirit Loki and Zoldyul, who used the Lost magic Human Subordination. Adam teleported over and directly used the power of his Rinnegan to extract Zoldyul's soul from within the Celestial Spirit Capricorn.
The team gained two more members.
Next, guided by the Celestial Spirit Loki, they found Lucy.
At this time, Lucy was being pursued by Kain Hikaru, one of the Seven Kin of Purgatory.
Kain Hikaru used the Lost magic, Ushi no Koku Mairi. As long as he got a strand of an enemy's hair and put it on his doll, he could manipulate the enemy by manipulating the doll.
He could also change his own body by changing the attributes of the doll.
At the same time, he himself possessed an extraordinarily powerful body and close-combat skills.
However, that was only relative to the normal mages of this World.
"Off you go!"
Adam directly flashed in front of Lucy, then just raised his foot and kicked Kain Hikaru flying.
And it wasn't just a normal kick; it was the kind of kick that sent him flying directly off Tenrou Island, then turning into a black dot and disappearing. He probably wouldn't land again until he was on another continent.
"Natsu!"
Seeing Adam appear, Lucy, whose clothes were half-torn from the beating, immediately rushed over excitedly.
Adam dodged aside, and by the way, restored Lucy's clothes to their original state.
"Spectacular."
However, he still couldn't help but let out a sigh of admiration inwardly.
He reached out, pulled Lucy, and teleported her into the air. After applying the Light-Heavy Rock Jutsu to her and handing her over to Mirajane, they continued on their way.
Along the way, they picked up the other two members of the Thunder God Tribe.
Finally, they found the dying Makarov Dreyar, the Third Master of Fairy Tail, on a beach below a cliff.
"No, Master's injuries are too severe, and there's a lot of dark magic interfering in his body. My current magic level can't heal him."
Wendy, who was mainly responsible for healing, checked Makarov and then turned to look at Adam.
Happy, Carla, and Panther Lily, the three cats, also looked at Adam.
Others didn't know, but the injuries on the four of them at the very beginning were healed by Adam.
"Let me do it!"
Adam didn't delay either. He stepped forward and began to use Medical Ninjutsu on the unconscious Makarov.
As for the dark magic, he directly expelled it with Yang Release.
In just a few seconds, Makarov opened his eyes, his body completely restored to health.
Lucy and the others widened their eyes at the sight.
Although they had already understood Natsu's current situation, seeing Natsu heal the Master, whom even Wendy couldn't heal, with healing magic still felt unbelievable.
"That's what happened!"
After Makarov woke up, everyone immediately chattered, explaining everything that had happened.
This included what they had learned from the Seven Kin of Purgatory about Hades's true objective for this operation, as well as Natsu's changes.
After some thought, Makarov instructed everyone:
"We absolutely cannot let Hades achieve his goal. We'll split into two groups. You all go and meet up with the others to stop Grimoire Heart's mages from capturing the Black Mage Zeref. I'll go to Grimoire Heart's magic airship to intercept Hades."
"No need for so much trouble. You all stay here and wait a bit. I can go deal with Hades."
Adam checked the time; there was still half an hour until the template loading finished.
Now, five of the Seven Kin of Purgatory had already been dealt with by him. The remaining Ultear and Meredy could be left to Gray and Juvia to reform.
As for Zeref, because it involved the gods of this World and his time was limited, he didn't plan to engage him for now; he could just let him leave on his own.
Anyway, whatever Great magic World Hades wanted to create was simply impossible to achieve.
Now, he would go directly to deal with Hades, extract his soul and memories, and then, before time ran out, eliminate the Black Dragon that would destroy the World. Then everything would be taken care of.
