Chapter 436: The Black Natsu Tug-of-War!

【Black Natsu wanted to run, but the crowded people completely blocked all paths he could escape through.】

【And so, in the next moment.】

【A terrifying bear hug grabbed Black Natsu directly.】

【A fat cheek rubbed up and down against Black Natsu's body.】

【"Little Natsu! Since Makarov says you're a good-for-nothing in their guild, why don't you just come to our guild!"】

【Bob let go of Black Natsu, his eyes staring straight at him.】

【And he couldn't stop blinking.】

【It was extremely disgusting to look at.】

【Black Natsu resisted the urge to vomit.】

【Just as he was about to say something, Makarov couldn't sit still.】

【"Hey! You bastard Bob!! I'm still here, and you dare to poach the treasure of my guild right in front of me??"】

【Makarov was furious, his short legs bursting with speed that didn't belong to him.】

【In just a blink of an eye, he rushed in front of Bob.】

【His eyes glared straight at Bob.】

【"Ara ara~ but didn't Old Ma just say that such a genius is just a good-for-nothing in your guild?"】

【"With our friendship, Old Ma, you shouldn't mind letting such a good-for-nothing talent come to our guild, right?"】

【Gao Deman, watching the battle not far away, also had his eyes light up.】

【He immediately leaned in and nodded repeatedly.】

【"Yeah, yeah, Old Ma, we've had a life-and-death friendship for so many years; you wouldn't refuse such a small request, would you?"】

【Listening to the words of these two shameless guys, Makarov almost fainted from anger.】

【"Get out, get out, get out!! Both of you get out!"】

【"You have the nerve to talk about a life-and-death friendship; is a life-and-death friendship just for you to come and poach my members??"】

【"In any case, don't even think about this matter; I, Makarov, have been upright and honorable all my life, and I treat the children in the guild like my own children."】

【"No matter how good-for-nothing the child is, he is a member of Fairy Tail, he is my child! You guys get this thought out of your heads completely!"】

【Makarov spoke righteously.】

【However, it only earned him the disdainful looks of a group of guild masters.】

【You, Makarov, are upright and honorable???】

【Forget it, you just tricked everyone present, and you have the nerve to say such things!】

【However, the farce finally came to an end.】

【The banquet also drew to a close.】

【A few old guys got together and made up a few events and goals to use when facing reporter interviews later.】

【So they could say how difficult the discussions were and how complex the controversies were for this group of old guys to reach a conclusion.】

【After all, the routine meeting is always organized by the Council, funded by the Council, and is an activity held regularly for major guilds to propose and discuss any blueprints for the future development of the Magic World.】

【No matter what, they have to give the outside world an explanation, right?】

【Even though they played here—no, seriously discussed for a few days—they only came up with a suggestion to set up a public toilet near every guild.】

【A suggestion for the convenience of clients to use, etc.】

【But, at least it counts as having discussed something, right?】

Outside the screen.

Yajima: "Makarov!! So every routine meeting you guys were just doing these things??"

Doranbolt: "This... seems to count as using public funds for entertainment!!"

Ultear: "Pfft! When I was a councilor, I felt something was wrong."】

【"These guys, the funds applied for every routine meeting were shockingly high; so it turns out, after all that, it was all spent on your eating, drinking, and playing."】

Jellal: "More than just high; once I even received their application to change the routine meeting from once a year to once a month."】

【"It was rejected by me at the time."】

Makarov: "No, this wasn't my idea alone; Little Ya, why are you targeting me?!"】

【"Besides, didn't we discuss the subjugation of the Oración Seis before?"】

Second Seat of the Magic Council, Org: "That was an emergency council, a meeting specifically convened to solve the Oración Seis matter, so it doesn't count as a routine meeting."】

Makarov: "..."

【"Anyway, this isn't my pot alone; everyone participated!"】

Gao Deman: "Who said that? It has nothing to do with me; I'm just a small guild, what qualifications do I have to apply for funds? This was all Old Ma's own decision!"】

Bob: "Yes, yes, yes, it was all Old Ma's doing; it has nothing to do with us."】 ===== CHAPTER 437 =====
