Chapter 259: A complete joke!

[Strange fluctuations permeated from the palm Totomaru extended.]

[And, they surged toward the incoming flames.]

[Totomaru bit his teeth tightly.]

[His gaze stared at the rotating flames surging over.]

[Gajeel’s heart was also in his throat at this moment.]

[Anxiously watching the raging flames about to collide with his Iron Dragon Club.]

["Must... be successful!!"]

[Gajeel roared inwardly.]

[But! Reality is desperate!]

[The surging flames seemed to have received no obstruction, heading straight for Gajeel’s Iron Dragon Club!]

[BOOM————!!!]

[A violent explosion sounded.]

[A burning pain spread throughout Gajeel’s entire arm.]

[The Iron Dragon Club had completely disappeared.]

[Replacing it... was Gajeel’s blood-soaked arm.]

[Drip... drip...]

[Blood kept dripping onto the ground along his fingertips.]

[Gajeel’s face was as pale as dead ash.]

[He opened his mouth wide, but couldn't make any sound.]

[His head turned, and those trembling pupils stared fixedly at Totomaru.]

["Didn't you say..."]

[At this moment, Totomaru was also stunned on the spot.]

[That expression full of astonishment was clearly reflected in Gajeel’s eyes.]

["Didn't you say... you could control that guy’s flames? Why..."]

["I... I..."]

[Totomaru’s palms were cold.]

[His eyes even revealed a look of terror.]

[Just in the instant just now!]

[Just in the instant he was about to manipulate Black Natsu’s flames.]

[He seemed to have seen something indescribable in words, hidden in those flames.]

[Just one glance made him chill to the bone.]

[And what was even more outrageous.]

[I don't know if it was an illusion, but the moment his manipulation touched Black Natsu’s flames.]

[He could even feel that the depths of his soul were also invaded by those flames.]

[It was like... the feeling of flames burning on his own body along Totomaru’s magic power.]

[That scorching heat from the bottom of his heart made his cold sweat instantly soak through the clothes on his back.]

[Fortunately 060, at that instant, he gave up the unrealistic idea of manipulating Black Natsu’s flames.]

[Otherwise...]

["I will die..."]

[Totomaru swallowed a mouthful of saliva, pulled his hoarse throat, and spoke with difficulty.]

["Magic to manipulate flames? Don't dream, my flames are not something anyone can touch if they want to."]

[Seeming to have noticed everything Totomaru did.]

[A disdainful smile crossed the corner of Black Natsu’s mouth.]

[The voice spread accordingly.]

["Really can't... will die... definitely will die..."]

[Totomaru kept shaking his head, as if he hadn't noticed Gajeel’s gaze and Black Natsu’s words at all.]

[In his mind, he kept replaying the real experience of that scene just now.]

[That was a strange situation he had never encountered since he learned magic.]

["Hey! Damn, are you crazy?"]

[Gajeel’s face was ugly.]

[And in front, Sol let out a tragic whimper again,]

[Gajeel looked up accordingly; at this moment, Sol was being choked by the neck by Black Natsu.]

[That face, which looked somewhat wretched, had already been suffocated to a liver color.]

[The lifted feet were frantically shaking in mid-air involuntarily.]

[And in contrast, it was Black Natsu’s straight back.]

[Reflected by the burning fire piles all around, that figure was like an insurmountable high wall.]

[Seeing this, the fear that Gajeel had forcibly suppressed sprouted again.]

[His brain was almost in a state of crashing at this moment.]

[That overwhelming sense of despair seemed to want to drown Gajeel completely.]

[Too terrifying, this is simply not a monster that humans can defeat.]

[Gajeel didn't even bother to think about why Jose wanted to provoke a guild that existed with such monsters.]

[Now his whole mind was thinking about how to survive.]

[Abruptly, he remembered the... final trump card still lurking in the dark.]

[His hair stood on end instantly!]

[Gajeel realized... this was their last hope.]

["Aria... hurry up..."]

[His heart was roaring continuously.]

["If you don't act... we will all die here!!!"]

[Seeming to respond to Gajeel’s crazy roar inside.]

[Behind Black Natsu, who was choking Sol.]

[The calm space gradually appeared with ripples like water waves.]

[Immediately after, a fat man, dressed in a green robe and wearing a green top hat, appeared quietly out of thin air.]

[He didn't even have his feet touching the ground.]

[The whole person floated behind Black Natsu like a ghost.]

[The bandages that had been wrapped around his eyes had long been taken off.]

[As someone who had watched for so long, Aria naturally knew the strength and terror of this Black Natsu.]

[Therefore, the bandages used to suppress the massive magic power had to be taken off.]

[Must... use full strength to crush the guy in front of him.]

Outside the sky screen, Fairy Tail guild.

Makarov let out a low groan with a grave expression.]

["Aria..."]

[Erza: "I remember, back during the Phantom war, the Master fell for this guy’s trick, and all his magic power was drained."]

[Makarov: "Yes, at that time my attention was all on Jose, and I didn't notice Aria’s approach."]

[From this point, the members of Fairy Tail all knew that this was enough to prove how perverted Aria’s concealment ability was.]

[Mirajane: "And, Black Natsu’s current situation seems to be the same as the Master’s back then."]

["Will he crash here?"]

[Gray: "Shouldn't be, right? This guy was later killed in seconds by Erza’s sword."]

["No matter how you think about it, he can't beat Black Natsu, right?"]

[Erza: "In fact, the comparison of combat power cannot be looked at like this."]

["This Aria is definitely very strong, but his strength lies in this ability to sneak attack."]

["If it can succeed, then even an existence like the Master cannot resist."]

["But, if he reacts, this guy is not that strong."]

[Mavis: "So, in the end, it still depends on whether Black Natsu has precautions."]

[In the sky screen picture.]

[Aria floated toward Black Natsu like a ghost.]

[On his opened hands, two magic circles were constantly rotating.]

[Tears flowed down Aria’s eye sockets uncontrollably.]

[But, the corners of his mouth were hanging with an excited smile.]

["Too sad... too sad..."]

["Another powerful Black Mage is about to fall."]

[Aria licked his lips.]

[The fierceness in his eyes could not be erased no matter what.]

[He approached Black Natsu slowly like this.]

["It’s about to succeed... Death Domain Extinction!"]
