【"Jellal! Are you even afraid of that guy yourself?"】

【Michello couldn't help but look at Jellal.】

【"It's not that I'm afraid of that guy, it's just..." Jellal paused here.】

【"I don't have the need to risk my life to protect everyone present, and fight Black Natsu. Regardless of the result, wouldn't I be the one at a loss?"】

【He smiled gently: "Besides, this matter was done unethically by you guys in the first place."】

【"If you had just turned a blind eye, wouldn't it have been fine? Why did you have to bring it up?"】

【"Jellal! Is this something you can say as a councilor?"】

【Jellal's statement made Crawford frown tightly.】

【To this, Jellal shrugged his shoulders: "Since you don't intend to adopt my proposal, then I won't say anything."】

【"Anyway, no matter what, I can protect my own safety, but everyone present... might not be so sure."】

【Crack crack...】

【The sound of gritting teeth echoed.】

【Crawford stared fixedly at Jellal, as well as Ultear and Yajima who defended Black Natsu earlier.】

【"I finally understand, your meaning... is to let our Magic Council! Bow down to a green kid??"】

【"Then where is the face of our Magic Council?!"】

【Seeming to get more excited as he spoke.】

【Crawford pointed his scepter to the side.】

【"Just that kid, could he really dare to openly defy us??"】

【"We are the leaders of the light magic world! 20 Not that kid! And certainly not Fairy Tail."】

【"Even that kid's Master has to bow down to us, what right does he have?"】

【Almost like venting, Crawford roared for a long time.】

【Only then did he take a deep breath and slam the scepter heavily on the ground.】

【The other councilors present couldn't help but look at each other.】

【Especially Ultear and Jellal.】

【Smiles flowed in both of their eyes.】

【Ultear crossed her arms and shook her head gently: "So, Chairman, what is your decision?"】

【"Arrest!"】

【Crawford gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice.】

【"Arrest that guy immediately, to uphold the authority of our Magic Council!"】

【"Pfft..." Ultear couldn't help but laugh out loud.】

【"Ultear!" Crawford roared!】

【"Fine, fine, fine, then, the key is I want to ask, who is going to arrest him?"】

【Ultear looked at Crawford with interest.】

【"Is there no one left in the Council?" Crawford said in a deep voice.】

【"It's not the first time arresting that guy."】

【"Last time... I remember, we arrested him, and also compensated a guild building, right?" Ultear looked at Crawford.】

【As if poked in a sore spot, Crawford's face turned pale.】

【Ultear's words continued.】

【"You need to understand one thing, the last time we were able to arrest Natsu, it was because he didn't mind coming to the Magic Council."】

【"He was originally planning to come and scam a new guild building."】

【"To put it bluntly, that's called giving us face, understand?"】

【"Otherwise, who could arrest him back?"】

【Ultear looked at Michello: "You?"】

【Michello was startled and quickly waved his hands and shook his head.】

【"How could it be me?"】

【Ultear looked at Crawford again: "Or, is it you, Chairman?"】

【Crawford opened his mouth, seeming to want to say something else.】

【But was immediately interrupted by Ultear.】

【"Also don't talk about sending the Magic Knight Corps or anything, do you really not understand the gold content of a powerful mage?"】

【"Those knight corps are purely going to send their heads."】

【"Wasn't the Lullaby incident last time shown clearly enough?"】

【"As for us... let alone Natsu, even if it's Makarov, if others turn against us, wouldn't it be a matter of one slap each to hit us."】

【"Let alone Natsu, who has a more explosive temper."】

【"By then, we'll all have to go see God together, and still be able to sit here and plan the development of the magic world?"】

【Smiling in disdain, Ultear spoke again: "Everyone, wake up. As ordinary people, you don't know how terrifying the existence at the top of the magic world is."】

【"Unless... you want to use Etherion to blast Natsu who is in the town?"】

【Everyone present fell silent.】

【Use Etherion? That's even more impossible.】

【Dare to use Etherion within the city limits because of arresting someone participating in a guild war?】

【It's no exaggeration to say that everyone present would have to go to jail!】

【Crawford, who was speechless, couldn't squeeze out a fart for a long time.】

【Finally, he could only sigh deeply: "Then, you say, what should we do?"】

【"What else can we do?" Ultear rolled her eyes.】

【"Regarding Phantom Lord attacking Fairy Tail guild, whatever you did then, just do the same now."】

【"Isn't it just a few Phantom Lord people dead? Anyway, their reputation isn't very good."】

【"Dead is dead, we just pretend we don't know, and wait until everything is over."】

【"Make some symbolic punishments, such as fines, writing self-criticism letters, etc., isn't this an old trick?"】

【Speaking of this, as if thinking of something, Ultear spoke again.】

【"By the way, these can't be aimed at Natsu. After all, with his personality, it's probably unrealistic to ask him to write a self-criticism for you. By then, if he doesn't write it, you won't be able to do anything to him."】

【"Losing face even more."】

【"Just go directly to Makarov. As for the crime, it's just poor discipline. Anyway, that old man is familiar with it, and he doesn't care."】

【"This way, everyone's face is preserved, and you continue to be your councilors and chairmen."】

【"Don't find trouble for yourself all day and put yourself on the fire to roast."】

Outside the screen.

Seeing this, Makarov immediately spat out a mouthful of old blood.

Makarov: "No! What do you mean??"

"How can this pot fall on my head??"

Mirajane: "Well, Master, calm down, calm down, that's you from another world, so why get angry?"

Makarov: "Is there a difference? What I care about is that bunch of guys in the Council."

"It's not just that world, take our world, when have they not come to punish me? Is it just because I'm easy to bully??"

"It makes me so angry!!"

Bob: "Since old Ma is so angry... why not just go directly to the Council and have a showdown!"

"Just like Black Natsu, use strength to make that bunch of guys shut up."
