At that very moment.
"Hmph!"
A cold snort rang out.
Immediately after, Kael felt a powerful force of gravity pressing down on his body.
This caused the Reishi foothold beneath his feet to give way.
Kael's figure plummeted rapidly toward the ground.
BOOM!!
Kael landed on the ground, smashing a giant crater into the earth.
"You bastard, don't meddle in my business!"
Jose barked at the newcomer.
"Hmph! It's because you were dilly-dallying. You haven't even finished off a single brat after all this time."
The newcomer spoke disdainfully. He had black hair tied in a long braid behind his head, and his face somewhat resembled a monkey. Wearing a white coat, he was the Deputy Commander of Grimoire Heart, Bluenote Stinger.
"Even Bluenote is taking action!"
The members of Grimoire Heart were somewhat surprised. They hadn't expected that to deal with Kael alone, Bluenote, Jose, and the Guild Master would all take action.
"That guy is dead for sure!"
No matter who this guy was, he certainly wouldn't be a match for Bluenote, Jose, and the Guild Master.
"Oh my! This is getting a bit troublesome!"
Seeing this, Kael immediately felt it was a bit of a problem. With his current strength, dealing with one ordinary Ten Wizard Saint-level guy was more than enough.
Dealing with two wasn't impossible, but dealing with three would be quite a lot of trouble.
After all, his magic power had only just barely reached the threshold of the Ten Wizard Saints.
Looking at the Spiritual Pressure of the three—their magic power, that is.
Bluenote's was the lowest, yet it was still close to 7 and a half stars.
This fellow Jose's magic power had increased significantly, already reaching 7 and a half stars.
This guy Hades had reached a terrifying 8 stars, similar to the old man.
"What is going on here?!!"
A familiar voice rang out, and Makarov walked out from the forest.
"Master! You're here!"
Kael turned his head to look at Makarov.
Makarov was also stunned for a moment seeing Kael in this state: "Kael, do you have a new transformation again?" It was the first time he had seen Kael's Take Over form of Gin Ichimaru.
"Yeah, I recently took over two more otherworldly heroic souls."
"Kael, what's going on?"
"It's a minor matter. Grimoire Heart is attacking, and I'm in the middle of dealing with them."
"Grimoire Heart?!"
Makarov's eyes widened. Grimoire Heart was the strongest Dark Guild. Why would these guys appear here?
"Makarov! It's been a long time!"
Hearing this voice, Makarov looked forward. A familiar face appeared, making his eyes widen in disbelief.
"Jose?!!"
After Jose disbanded the Phantom Lord guild, Makarov had specifically kept an eye on Jose's movements to prevent him from taking revenge, but he hadn't appeared since then.
"You... you actually joined a Dark Guild?!"
"Why, is there something wrong with that?"
"You are very strong. Having such powerful magic power at such a young age and even being ranked among the Ten Wizard Saints, if you could use your magic correctly and set a good example for the younger generation, you would surely promote the development of the magic world. Why did you join a Dark Guild?!"
Jose sneered: "Are you lecturing me? But since you've said it, I'll give you the answer. If Fairy Tail didn't exist, maybe I really would have done as you said. But because of you, and the existence of your damn Fairy Tail, you trampled my Phantom Lord under your feet. It's all your fault."
"So, to get revenge on Fairy Tail, I chose to join Grimoire Heart. Now I feel my choice was absolutely correct. My strength has become even greater, and now I can completely destroy you along with that damn Fairy Tail!! Hahahaha!!"
RUMBLE—————!
Terrifying magic power erupted from Makarov's body, and his size became giant.
"Just because of that, you want to destroy Fairy Tail? I will never allow you to do such a thing!"
"According to the trial procedures of Fairy Tail, I will give you a three-second countdown. Kneel and repent!"
Makarov clasped his hands together, and a dazzling orb of light condensed between his palms.
"One..."
Hades looked at Makarov releasing the magic and said calmly: "All enemies identified by the caster will be judged. Super-magic, Fairy Law, is it."
"Two..."
"Three!"
"This is the end. Fairy Law—"
Suddenly!
A voice rang out: "Stop it!"
Makarov looked up and saw Hades on the airship not far away, with dark light condensing in both hands. Although the light was different, the fluctuations of the magic couldn't be faked. It was the exact same magic as his Fairy Law.
"Grimoire Law!"
"This magic represents a deterrent; it shouldn't be used lightly. Even so, if you won't listen, it will be the worst result for both of us."
The magic in Makarov's hands dissipated. His eyes widened in disbelief: "How... how could this be... could it be..."
Hades looked at Makarov and said, "It's been a long time, brat."
"Master... Precht..."
Makarov finally recognized the other party's identity. It was the Second Guild Master of Fairy Tail, Master Precht, the very man who had passed the position of Fairy Tail's Master to him.
Hearing this, the members of Grimoire Heart were also somewhat surprised. Apparently, they weren't very clear about Master Hades's background. From what Makarov meant, Master Hades seemed to have once been the Guild Master of Fairy Tail.
"Why are you in a Dark Guild?"
Although Makarov was shocked, he quickly regained his senses and questioned Hades.
"How do you distinguish between appearance and essence, Makarov? Good and evil in this world are things that simply cannot be measured."
"But regardless of good or evil, the spirit of Fairy Tail will never change," Makarov said with a firm expression.
Hades laughed loudly: "Hahaha, you've become quite the smooth talker, brat from back then."
"Stop calling me brat. You and I are no longer family. However, I don't want to fight you either. Leave this place immediately."
On one hand, Makarov was concerned about the children of the guild, and on the other, he was thinking of their old bond. He didn't want to fight Hades.
"As for me, my heart aches just a little bit, knowing I have to destroy Fairy Tail with my own hands."
"I will never let you succeed!!"
"Do you want to resist me, brat?"
Hades said as he prepared to use a magic attack.
"Butō!"
Swish———!
A white laser shot toward Hades, and Hades hurriedly dodged.
"Eh? You dodged. What a shame!"
Hades looked at Kael with a gloomy expression: "Devious little brat."
