Chapter 509

Up to here.

The screen of the Dark World froze.

Immediately following, replacing it, was the screen with a white border, which gradually began to have color.

Makarov: "The war with Phantom Lord, huh…"

Macao: "Back then, we really suffered quite a bit."

Wakaba: "Mainly because that Jose from Phantom Lord was really too despicable, okay? All kinds of underhanded tricks emerged one after another, I really don't know how such a person became a Wizard Saint."

Lucy: "Come to think of it, the Phantom Lord incident was because of me, now thinking about it, I still feel a bit sorry for everyone."

Juvia: "What are you saying, last time we even attacked you, it should be us who are sorry to you."

Gajeel: "Yeah, can't deny it, I was indeed a bastard back then, sigh… hurt too many people."

Levy: "It's okay, we haven't cared about that matter for a long time."

Natsu: "Well said! I remember, it was during this war that I also beat Gajeel up!"

Gajeel: "Huh? After that battle, didn't you also fail to get up? What kind of beating me up is that?"

Natsu: "Doesn't matter, anyway, I won!"

Lucy: "Geez, what's the point of arguing about this at a time like this?"

Happy: "By the way, if Gajeel from the Dark World met Black Natsu, what would happen?"

Inside the Fairy Tail guild.

As soon as Happy's words came out.

Natsu and Gajeel, who were arguing, were both stunned.

Especially Gajeel, his eyes widened unconsciously.

As if thinking of some terrifying thing.

"By the way… I didn't seem to be that arrogant back then, right?"

He asked tentatively.

But, the answer he got was beyond his imagination.

Gray shook his head solemnly: "Should say… you were arrogant to the heavens back then."

Erza: "I remember, during the entire Phantom Lord war, the most conspicuous and arrogant one was you."

"Even more arrogant than Jose."

Gajeel: "Ah?? Is there such a thing?"

Everyone in the guild nodded in unison.

Immediately, Gajeel's heart turned to ash.

Panther Lily listened for a long time and finally figured out the situation, looking at Gajeel with some surprise.

"So, you used to be so annoying."

Gajeel struggled: "Didn't I say that was in the past?"

Panther Lily crossed his arms: "But, do you think you might be just as arrogant in the Dark World?"

Gajeel stopped talking.

Because the answer almost didn't need thinking.

Absolutely would be.

Panther Lily sighed gently: "I think, you on that side might be very miserable, but… shouldn't die."

"After all, didn't you and Black Natsu know each other when you were kids in that world?"

"You lost your memory, but Black Natsu didn't, therefore, I reckon he won't deal a fatal blow."

Gajeel's mouth twitched crazily: "I, the dignified Lord Gajeel, actually have to rely on others showing mercy to survive??"

Panther Lily: "Otherwise… what other way is there? After all… that is Black Natsu!"

As soon as this was said, Gajeel was instantly speechless.

【The white-bordered screen in the screen gradually became clear.】

【The beginning of the screen.】

【Is a messy basement.】

【This is the basement where the Fairy Tail guild usually piles up miscellaneous items.】

【Because the top has already been destroyed beyond recognition, therefore, Fairy Tail can only temporarily operate in the basement, at least until the top is finished being built.】

【Everyone can only shrink in this narrow basement.】

【Erza, Natsu, and others followed Mirajane down the stairs and arrived at the basement.】

【The narrow space was filled with the smell of alcohol.】

【Guild members were gathered together in twos and threes.】

【Drinking sullenly, forcibly suppressing their anger.】

【A dull atmosphere filled the entire guild.】

【Soon, the group arrived in front of Makarov.】

【Unexpectedly, Makarov seemed not to care at all.】

【Sitting on a wine barrel, drinking until he was dead drunk.】

【Upon seeing the returning group, he was even enthusiastically welcoming everyone's return.】

【And also indicated that he would punish Natsu and the others for taking on an S-Class mission without permission.】

【But, now, whether it was Natsu, Gray, or Lucy, none of them had any mind to pay attention to such things.】

【Natsu expressed very unhappily that he must find those guys from Phantom Lord to take revenge!】

【After all, for so many years, everyone also understood the Master of Phantom Lord, which was on par with their own guild.】

【The guild not only had S-Class mages, the Element 4, but also a more powerful Iron Dragon Slayer, Gajeel, and even the Master of that guild was a Wizard Saint like their own guild Master.】

【But, so what?】

【Destroying the Fairy Tail guild, they must pay the price!】

【Natsu's angry roar echoed throughout the entire basement.】

【But, Makarov shook his head and refused Natsu's proposal, and indicated that it was just the building that was destroyed.】

【No need to haggle with those guys.】

【Natsu was very angry.】

【But, Erza behind him understood what Makarov was worried about.】

【Fighting between guilds is prohibited.】

【Plus, at the current stage, Fairy Tail's reputation at the Council is not good.】

【Therefore, in order for Fairy Tail to continue, Makarov did not want to make this matter big.】
