After the Fairy Tail members left.
Ultear and Meredy had been sent to Porlyusica in the East Forest for treatment.
"Makarov… you really… brought out a very good guild…"
"It's just, you all must come back…" Porlyusica stood by the window, looking at the sky and silently praying. She also knew the whole story. She knew that Black Dragon Acnologia was not comparable to ordinary dragons.
That was the Dragon of Apocalypse, the King of Dragons.
Igneel, Grandeeney, Medalicana, will you appear this time?
"Ultear… they…" Meredy sat by the bed, equally at a loss. It was her first time seeing a dragon, and the fear that the Black Dragon brought her was still lingering in her heart.
In just an instant, her will and spirit had been shattered by that abyssal magic power. She knew that monster was not something humans could face.
Her hands tightly gripped Ultear's, but they still trembled uncontrollably.
"Don't worry… I believe in them." Ultear was equally awestruck at the time, but she believed in Zorn, she believed in Fairy Tail. She had deeply believed since that time.
...
An unknown island near Tenrou Island.
A golden magic circle appeared in this area. After the light dissipated, all the Fairy Tail members had successfully arrived. Everyone mobilized as soon as they heard they could teleport here.
"We can only go this far. Tenrou Island seems to be sealed by something, isolating magical perception…"
"Haa… haa…"
Cana braced herself with her hands on the ground, breathing heavily. Just this trip had exhausted her magic power.
"You…"
"This is…"
As soon as Cana looked up, she, like the rest of Fairy Tail, stared in disbelief at the colossal figure towering like a cloud in the distance.
Everyone's breathing seemed to stop as well.
"Holy Light Version: True Several Thousand Hands: Summit Buddha!"
A giant golden Buddha solidified in the sky, with countless massive hands appearing behind it. Its form was already several times larger than the Black Dragon.
It was towering five kilometers beyond Tenrou Island.
This kind of magic was also the first time they had seen it. Such astonishing magic made them unable to describe it at this moment; it had already exceeded their understanding.
Black Dragon Acnologia, who was still struggling desperately, also stopped moving at this moment, looking at the giant Buddha statue in front of him, wondering what he was thinking.
"This kid, to possess such terrifying strength, truly the new wave pushes the old!"
Looking at the Black Dragon being bound by giant chains, and that massive Buddha statue reaching into the clouds, this kind of magic could already be considered forbidden magic.
Master Makarov's heart was also greatly shaken at this moment. From the first day Zorn came to the guild, his strength grew stronger day by day. One day, he could no longer clearly see Zorn's true strength.
Up to now, as far as he knew, Zorn's strength had already surpassed the Ten Wizard Saints level. Perhaps God Serena, the strongest of the Ten Wizard Saints, was no longer Zorn's opponent.
Several S-Class Mages were also shocked. Gildarts, however, embraced Cana, gently comforting her.
And just as everyone was surprised, the motionless Black Dragon suddenly opened his mouth, and energy began to gather within it.
"Breath? Dragon's Roar!" Gajeel was the first to shout, pulling everyone's thoughts back.
"Zorn!" Cana murmured worriedly.
When the Fairy Tail members arrived, Zorn had already noticed.
He had indeed made a slight oversight, forgetting the defensive and escape magic cards he had given Cana earlier.
Zorn thought this to himself, but his hands didn't stop. He placed his hands in front of his chest to form a seal, and the countless giant hands of the Buddha statue behind him moved with him.
Protecting Zorn deeply behind its arms.
Countless Holy Shield defensive magic also unfolded.
The Black Dragon's breath, amidst a roar, a breath about ten meters wide, blasted towards Zorn, instantly shattering the first few Holy Shields until it collided with the defense of the Buddha statue's giant hands.
"Bang~ Boom~" A thunderous crash.
The violent explosion stirred up layers of giant waves that surged into the distance.
"Juvia!"
"Yes~ Gray-sama!"
Seeing the massive tidal wave rushing towards them, Gray was the first to act, shouting at Juvia and extending his hands, signaling Juvia to take them.
Juvia's heart stirred, and she quickly responded. The moment their hands clasped, their magic power instantly and harmoniously merged together.
"Combined Magic!"
A chill immediately spread from their bodies, freezing everything in its path.
Thanks to Juvia's magic power, the freezing range expanded several times with very little magic power output.
The giant tidal wave was successfully frozen into ice about ten meters in front of the Fairy Tail members.
Things were fine here, and the same was true for Zorn's side.
From a distance, it seemed Zorn had successfully defended against the Black Dragon's breath, but only Zorn knew that this attack from the Black Dragon was merely a test.
"That's truly impressive! By human standards, your strength on this continent can rank among the top few!"
"In that case, you should let me enjoy myself for a while!"
Black Dragon Acnologia suddenly opened his dragon mouth while still restrained, praising Zorn.
As if he had suddenly regained his senses.
The Black Dragon's gaze seemed to penetrate the Buddha statue's arm, and he continued to speak arrogantly to Zorn: "Unfortunately, you are the first person I have praised, but you will soon be buried here."
And in the distance, the Fairy Tail members were also very shocked.
"It spoke? The dragon spoke."
Some Fairy Tail members who didn't know much about dragons began to exclaim in surprise.
"Dragons possess high intelligence, and speaking human languages is common, even surpassing humans in some aspects, and they are extremely arrogant, unwilling to communicate with human ants!"
Not to mention, the Black Dragon was once a human.
"Now the Black Dragon is actually starting to praise Zorn, it's incredible!"
Gildarts explained, looking proudly at Zorn. These words also made everyone look at Zorn, suspended high in the sky, with admiration.
"Enjoy? Don't worry, I'll make you enjoy yourself to death right away, how about it!"
The Buddha statue's arms slowly opened, returning to its thousand-handed state. Zorn, glowing with golden light, also spoke arrogantly to the Black Dragon.
At least he couldn't lose in terms of aura. His current strength was finally making the Black Dragon take him seriously.
"Interesting, interesting!"
"Hmph!"
After Acnologia heard Zorn's words, his dragon eyes narrowed slightly, and the magic power on his body began to surge. Although he said it was interesting, he was clearly angry.
His magic power began to vibrate, and with a sudden jolt, his dragon body forcefully broke free from the chains' restraint. The ground also began to crack under his force, and the already cracked chains began to show gaps.
"Roar~"
With a furious roar and a flick of his tail, the chains restraining the Black Dragon were snapped. His dark wings unfurled, carrying the Black Dragon slowly into the sky, level with Zorn.
