Chapter 162

"Anyone who stands in my way will be eliminated!"

The old King inside the mechanical dragon roared madly, and then the magic-filled mechanical dragon opened its maw.

Hum—

At this moment, a pitch-black magic sphere appeared in the mechanical dragon's mouth.

As the magic power from the mechanical dragon's body continuously poured into the magic sphere.

The magic sphere grew larger at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"Disappear!"

Once the magic sphere grew to a certain point, a massive beam of magic power swept directly toward Ye Yu with the force of world-destruction.

At this moment, Ye Yu, who had already entered Lightning Flame Dragon Mode, moved.

Ye Yu moved his feet, and accompanied by a loud noise, the ground beneath him instantly collapsed and sank.

His body, like a shell fired from a cannon, blasted toward the location of the mechanical dragon with the force of thunder.

Ye Yu's speed was incredibly fast, and in the blink of an eye, he arrived in front of the mechanical dragon.

At this time, the magic beam that had just swept out was also rushing toward Ye Yu.

At this moment, the massive magic beam and Ye Yu, who was filled with lightning and flames, collided with a roar.

Facing the magic beam, Ye Yu did not hesitate at all and punched through it.

"Lightning Flame Dragon's Iron Fist!"

There was nothing fancy about Ye Yu's punch; it contained only endless power.

The moment he threw this punch, the entire space began to tremble.

Then, a terrifying shockwave instantly suppressed the incoming magic beam.

Following that, the terrifying lightning and flames, carrying the shockwave, landed on the mechanical dragon.

Boom—

At this moment, a terrifyingly loud noise echoed throughout the entire capital of Edolas.

Accompanied by this loud noise, the incredibly sturdy mechanical dragon shattered with a roar.

And Faust, the old King inside the mechanical dragon, was annihilated by the terrifying lightning and flames before he could even react.

From the moment Ye Yu in Lightning Flame Dragon Mode attacked to the moment the mechanical dragon shattered, it was but the blink of an eye.

Because everything happened so fast, Mirajane and Gajeel only saw Ye Yu's form, like a pillar of flame, instantly collide with the mechanical dragon.

Then a terrifying sound of impact echoed in the air.

At the same time this loud noise arrived, the mechanical dragon shattered, and the terrifying shockwave destroyed the ground in a fan-shaped area behind the mechanical dragon.

Furthermore, a long trench remained on the ground, as if it had been struck by a magic cannon.

"Is this Ye Yu's true strength?"

Gajeel looked at everything before him, his expression complex as he watched Ye Yu.

Originally, Gajeel had used Ye Yu as his goal.

He was prepared to definitely defeat Ye Yu the next time they fought.

But seeing this strike from Ye Yu.

Gajeel was shaken.

He wondered if he could block it if Ye Yu used this move against him.

The answer was certain.

Gajeel struggled to shift his gaze from the long trench to Ye Yu.

At this moment, in Gajeel's field of vision, Ye Yu was like a true dragon, awe-inspiring and invincible.

The loud noise caused by Ye Yu's punch echoed throughout the entire capital.

Erza and her group, who were returning to the capital, also heard it.

When Erza left the capital, she had gone with Hughes to the city of Syka to capture Fairy Tail members.

But upon returning, she was with Brother Na Zi, Hearing Wendi, Lucy, as well as Happy and Carla.

Clearly, just as Ye Yu had anticipated, the three Fairy Tail members Hughes had discovered were indeed Brother Na Zi, Hearing Wendi, and Lucy.

"What was that loud noise just now?"

Lucy and Hearing Wendi, riding on the forehead of the giant beast, were both startled after hearing the terrifyingly loud noise.

Beside them, Erza looked toward the capital in the distance, her brows furrowed, her face full of worry.

"That sound came from the palace!"

"Did something happen to Ye Yu and Mirajane?"

Having said this, she reminded Brother Na Zi, Hearing Wendi, and the others: "We need to speed up!"

With that, the giant beast's wings flapped violently, and its form accelerated rapidly, heading toward the direction of the palace.

Under such an accelerated sprint, Hearing Wendi and Lucy were fine.

But Brother Na Zi.

Brother Na Zi was originally prone to motion sickness.

Although he had improved slightly thanks to Hearing Wendi's healing.

But the moment the giant beast accelerated, he was once again like a pile of mud, lying on the beast's forehead, his face turning green.

Brother Na Zi pleaded for help from Hearing Wendi in a half-dead tone: "Hearing Wendi..."

"Troia's effect weakens with repeated use; there's nothing I can do now!"

Seeing Brother Na Zi's painful appearance, Hearing Wendi said with a sympathetic expression.

While Brother Na Zi and Hearing Wendi were talking, the giant beast had already entered the capital.

Soon, Erza and her group saw the situation at the palace in the distance.

Seeing the mess in front of the palace, Erza's beautiful face changed immediately.

"Something really did happen!"

Just as Erza was thinking this, Mirajane's voice suddenly came from the air.

"Erza!"

Hearing this voice, Erza looked up and saw Mirajane standing on a giant beast, waving at her.

After Erza and Mirajane reunited, Erza asked Mirajane: "Mirajane, what exactly happened here?"

"After you left, we had some situations here..."

Then Mirajane told Erza, Hearing Wendi, and the others what had happened during this time.

"So where is Ye Yu now?"

"He and Gajeel went inside the palace, saying they wanted to prevent Edolas from using Anima on Earth-land again!"

"Mirajane, let's go over there too!"

With that, the giant beast beneath Erza and Mirajane descended toward the ground below.

Brother Na Zi, who had just revived because the giant beast stopped, didn't even have time to be happy before he collapsed again.

"Ah~"

Seeing Brother Na Zi like this, Hearing Wendi was in a state of panic.

"Hearing Wendi, don't worry about him!"

"But..."

"He'll recover in a little while anyway!"

While Hearing Wendi and Carla were talking, Brother Na Zi called out to Happy.

After Happy understood, he took Brother Na Zi from the giant beast into the sky.

"It's really strange, why aren't you motion sick when Happy carries you?"

Hearing Wendi looked at the revived Brother Na Zi, tilting her little head in confusion.

"Happy isn't a vehicle, Happy is a companion!"

"Aye!"
