Meanwhile, Chine began clearing the field: Flare Corona from Raven Tail, Obra, Sherry Blendy from Lamia Scale, Sherria Blendy, and Risley from Mermaid Heel.
The battle seemed to have turned into her personal showcase. With every swing of her sword, someone lost their ability to fight.
Moreover, anyone could see that Chine hadn't used her true strength at all.
Currently remaining on the field were Erza, Mirajane, Kagura, Minerva, Yukino, and the three lurkers: Lucy, Juvia, and Ikaruga.
Chine looked relaxed. "I'm a bit surprised you didn't all attack at once. Do you really intend to face me one-on-one?"
Minerva gave a light laugh. "Why would I give the prey I've set my sights on to someone else?"
She stepped forward elegantly with an arrogant expression. "Making an enemy of Sabertooth is your greatest mistake!"
Chine shook her head with a smile. "You aren't qualified to say that. In my perception, you are far inferior to that scarlet-haired girl."
"Of course, I don't mean to instigate anything; your strength isn't worth my instigation."
She was merely stating a fact. The only source of danger on the field came from Erza.
Minerva was furious. What she could least tolerate was being told she was inferior to others. She turned her gaze to Erza and said coldly, "Since she says I'm inferior to you, let's see who is stronger!"
Multi-colored crystal balls condensed in her hands, containing the power of space, and she charged forward instantly.
Erza naturally wouldn't avoid the fight. "Come!" she said confidently.
A magic circle expanded beneath her feet as she Requipped into her Flight Armor. Her speed surged instantly, and they collided in a violent explosion.
Both sides accelerated again, turning into two streaks of light that continuously crashed into each other.
Kagura looked at Yukino and said calmly, "Then let's have a match first!"
Yukino waved a golden key and whispered, "Open, Gate of the Scales: Libra!"
A golden magic circle expanded, and a dancing masked girl appeared, holding golden scales.
"Change Gravity!"
Libra gently swayed her scales, and the Gravity shifted its target. Kagura's body instantly sank, and the ground beneath her feet crumbled.
"Open, Gate of the Paired Fish: Pisces!"
Two giant loach-like flying fish swam through the sky. Their massive bodies immediately surrounded Kagura and began to ram into her.
Kagura's eyes narrowed slightly. Her figure moved rapidly, dodging instantly. Facing the repeated impacts of the flying fish, she was always able to evade with the slightest of movements.
Suddenly, Pisces attacked. With terrifying Gravity weighing her down, Kagura had no choice but to raise her sword to block, and she was sent flying high into the air.
Yukino waved her hand to guide them. "Libra, change the direction of Gravity to falling!"
"Understood!"
Libra swayed her scales. Kagura's body plummeted like a meteor while Pisces charged upward. If they collided, she would surely be severely injured!
However, at that moment, Kagura's gaze sharpened. A red magic circle suddenly expanded in the sky, illuminating the area, and a terrifying Gravity descended from above.
With a loud boom, the two giant fish were instantly pinned to the ground, along with Libra.
Seeing that her Celestial Spirits were unable to resist under this Gravity, Yukino withdrew them.
She took out a purple key and waved it. "Next, I will open The Thirteenth Gate: Ophiuchus, the Serpent Bearer!"
Purple magic power enveloped the area, and the sky turned as black as ink, filled with ominous power.
A massive black-and-purple Celestial Spirit gate expanded, and a winding giant serpent appeared, its enormous body surrounding everyone.
Seeing this, Erza and Minerva couldn't help but stop their battle. They looked up, their expressions filled with shock.
