"Fire Dragon's Iron Fist!"
Igneel's dragon claw gripped flames and struck Acnologia's head, which had transformed back into a black dragon, heavily.
This punch directly knocked Acnologia back, and Drake followed closely, flying out from under Igneel's wings.
"Fire Dragon's Iron Fist!"
Drake used the same move to knock Acnologia back even further.
Although they had never fought alongside each other against an enemy, the cooperation between the one human and one dragon was incredibly seamless.
The one human and one dragon opened their mouths at the same time and released the Fire Dragon's Roar. The two flames merged in midair and violently crashed into Acnologia's body.
Igneel's head swayed, and then the flames he spat out expanded a lot, directly overwhelming Drake's side.
Then Igneel gave Drake a look, the meaning of which was very clear, and was saying, "Is that all you've got?"
Drake narrowed his eyes. In this situation, even Igneel himself couldn't admit defeat.
So Drake straightened his chest, and the flames on his side also swelled up.
And with this father and son competing like they were playing around, the one who suffered was Acnologia.
His pained roar came from the exploding flames, but then black magic power pierced through the flames and shot out.
Drake and Igneel dodged to the left and right, but then jointly faced Acnologia, who had escaped from the flames.
Acnologia was struggling, but he was occasionally hit by Drake or Igneel, and was really in a sorry state.
The one human and one dragon took turns attacking. Igneel swatted Acnologia's head away with a claw, and Drake followed up with a Fire Dragon's Hook Claw to kick him towards the tail that Igneel had swung over.
Acnologia, who had been made dizzy by this series of combined attacks, roared, and used his erupting magic power to push both the human and the dragon away.
Looking at the dripping blood on the black dragon scales, Igneel wasn't happy, but instead said, "Fighting like this won't really win, Drake. It looks like we have to take a risk!"
Drake also understood this reality. Although he and Igneel had joined forces and gained the absolute upper hand, it wouldn't be easy to truly end the battle.
At least Drake and Igneel were both clear that if Acnologia wanted to escape, it would be difficult for them to keep him here.
But whether it was Igneel or Drake, how could they be willing to let him go when they clearly saw the hope of completely resolving everything!
Drake chuckled and said, "I've always believed in you, Igneel. You also believe in my efforts and growth over the years!"
Igneel said in a tone full of gratification, "I've never doubted it from the start! Then there's nothing more to say. Let's take care of him!"
Saying this, Igneel directly flapped his wings and flew towards Acnologia.
Drake didn't follow, but clasped his hands together in place, and the armguards on his arms transformed into light, gathering and extending in his hands.
The inherent spirit armor was a manifestation of the owner's soul, so its form would also undergo a change like recasting due to the owner's changes.
Drake's Evil Dragon and Dragon Slayer had undergone several evolutions with the transformation of his abilities, and the Martial Saint that had been summoned after Drake had gone all out had also transformed.
The dragon scale on the hilt was deeper and sharper, and even pulsed with Drake's breathing.
The divine dragon coiling around the base of the blade also seemed to come alive and began to bare its fangs and claws. The biggest change was still the blade. The blade, which was originally only the length of an arm, crazily extended to be more than half a person tall.
The flame-shaped on the blade seemed to really turn into jumping flames, giving the sharp blade a kind of magnificent feeling.
Acnologia suddenly had the feeling that his heart had been grabbed. Sensing the danger, he released all his magic power, and as he stood up, the texture on his wings lit up.
Acnologia's wings were wings that all other dragons didn't have, and now all the scale-like feathers on them were filled with magic power.
Then a large number of magic power were emitted from them, covering Igneel and Drake like a meteor shower.
Everyone thought that there was a reason why Acnologia could destroy the world. This wave of magic power was enough to flatten a large town at once.
But Drake didn't mean to dodge or block it. He only focused on accumulating magic power, wanting to decide the outcome of the battle with one strike.
He would do this of course because he knew that Igneel wouldn't let any attack hinder him.
Igneel was burning with flames all over his body, and directly charged up and scattered all the magic power with his body.
"Dragon Slayer Secret Art - Shiranui Style - Crimson Phoenix Sword!"
Igneel had once said that Dragon Slayer Secret Arts were just imitations of the moves that dragons possessed.
Drake also agreed with this point. This move was a Dragon Slayer Secret Art that Igneel had rarely personally taught to Drake and Natsu.
And this move could only fully unleash its power in the form of a giant dragon! This time, Igneel would show Drake the true power of the Crimson Phoenix Sword.
Like the burning sword of Surtur that destroyed the world in mythology, the flames that Igneel dragged up cut down all the magic power, and then crashed into Acnologia's body.
Even the Dragon King was sent flying high by Igneel's collision. Igneel took the opportunity to open his mouth full of fangs and directly bit Acnologia's neck, while using his claws to hold down his jet-black wings.
"Detestable dragon, let me go!"
Acnologia struggled frantically, and the claws, tail, and other movable parts attacked Igneel's body randomly.
A large number of wounds appeared on Igneel's body in just a few seconds, and broken scales and dragon blood were scattered like they were free.
But Igneel just suppressed Acnologia tightly and wouldn't let go.
Drake's vertical pupils turned blood red, and wisps of flame jumped up.
The divine dragon above the Martial Saint roared, and the flames wrapped around it would be compressed even more with each jump.
A ring of sonic booms exploded, and Drake launched a charge, leaving a terrifying trace where the space had been burned through by the blade that was dragging behind him.
"Dragon King, it's all over!"
Acnologia's dragon eyes widened. Even he could smell the scent of death on Drake, who was approaching.
He wanted to dodge and even escape, but Igneel's suppression made it impossible for him to make any response.
The Transparent World that he had learned from training in the Demon Slayer world entered a higher level at this moment.
Before, Drake could see that transparent world, but now he knew that he had only just entered the door.
In addition to seeing the transparent world, entering the realm called "no self" or "unity of heaven and man" was the true supreme realm.
Drake didn't have the excitement, satisfaction, or joy of about to kill his nemesis and change his destiny. His mood was surprisingly calm.
In his eyes, Acnologia's body gradually became illusory, and the scales, muscles, and bones all began to disappear, leaving only that black heart with strange texture.
Naturally, Drake adjusted his moves, turned the knife to hold it properly, and then thrust it out.
Like a hot knife cutting into butter, the blade with Dragon Slaying power pierced straight through Acnologia's body, and Drake saw the blade pierce through the black heart.
"It's over, Dragon King Acnologia!"
