Chapter 100

【PS: A little trivia — a two-star Xuanwozhang Sect has even stronger Rinnegan abilities. A one-star Xuanwozhang Sect is the canon's power level; a two-star Xuanwozhang Sect is the ideal power level.

The ideal power level means Xuanwozhang Sect truly became the savior as Jiraiya had envisioned — not only was his body at peak condition, his control over the Rinnegan had reached a new level, and he had also learned Sage Toad Mode at Mount Myoboku.】

"Aaaaaaaah."

"I can't see anything."

At the instant of the explosion, Natsu directly covered his own eyes, shouting noisily beside him.

But very soon Natsu stood up from the ground looking a little strange, saying: "Huh, my body doesn't feel as heavy as before, it feels really light."

"Can you be serious for once?"

"It should be that Mr. who blocked the pressure and the aftershock we were facing on our side."

Gray looked at Natsu, who hadn't been the least bit proper since just now, with some helplessness, and said: "If it weren't for this Mr., I'm afraid our fate wouldn't have ended up anywhere good."

Saying so, Gray wiped a handful of cold sweat from his forehead.

There was no helping it — the scene before his eyes was really a bit too terrifying. Gray really found it hard to imagine what would have happened if Aizen Sousuke hadn't had a free hand to put a shield over their side.

If they had had to face the aftershock of this attack themselves, just what kind of fate would it have been.

"Mm, that's right."

"The gap in strength is really far too wide."

After hearing Gray's voice, Erza also said with a somewhat solemn expression: "This kind of terrifying, beyond-imagination power — even among the Ten Wizard Saints, it would absolutely rank in the top three."

"Moreover, it seems a formidable figure has appeared on the other side as well."

While saying so, Erza narrowed her eyes and shifted her gaze to the other side — Konan's position.

On the figure beside Konan, wearing the same uniform, with those eerie eyes.

'What strange eyes.'

'Just one glance, and it feels as if even my thoughts and soul are about to freeze.'

Looking at this figure with the eerie eyes, Erza's expression grew somewhat solemn.

The aftershocks of the battle quickly subsided.

Neither Aizen Sousuke nor Xuanwozhang Sect made any further moves.

And there was no need to keep fighting — that was about enough. Fighting back and forth, the energy spent all along was Lin Cheng's side's. Even though Lin Cheng's side had just harvested the ability of a full blast of Magical Spirit Power, it still couldn't stand being wasted like this.

To be honest, if Lin Cheng didn't feel that he absolutely couldn't beat Zeref right now, he would want to sneak into the Fairy Tail guild and steal Fairy Heart — the magic symbolizing infinite energy, Lumen · Stella, and Mavis herself.

"Truly unexpectedly unexpected."

Aizen Sousuke glanced at Erza and the others not far away who were watching the battle with rapt attention, the corners of his mouth curving slightly upward, and laughed: "I didn't expect the leader of the Akatsuki organization, Mr. Xuanwozhang Sect himself, to actually make a move personally."

"It seems this Mr. Jellal is highly valued by you all."

Saying so, Aizen Sousuke cast an interested glance at Jellal.

At this moment, Jellal, having just experienced the great terror between life and death, was still a bit dazed, not having come back to his senses.

"I am also very surprised."

"I didn't expect Mr. Aizen Sousuke, a Shinigami, to actually reach his hand into the present world."

After hearing Aizen Sousuke's words, Xuanwozhang Sect's Rinnegan swept the surroundings once, then fixed on Aizen Sousuke, and said lightly: "It seems Hueco Mundo has been rather well-behaved lately, leaving you all a bit too idle."

"Hahahaha, it's not possible to be that busy all year round either."

"Besides, hasn't Mr. Xuanwozhang Sect also appeared in the present world?"

After hearing Xuanwozhang Sect's reply, Aizen Sousuke also laughed lightly twice and said: "Don't make it sound as if I'm something special. I heard the Dazuisi Sect of the Monu Sect has also started becoming active in the present world."

"And the Four Emperors — Mr. Ace and Mr. Blackbeard of the Whitebeard Pirates can't stand the loneliness either."

"However, since Mr. Xuanwozhang Sect has decided to protect this Mr. Jellal, then let it be."

Having said that, Aizen Sousuke spread his hands.

After Xuanwozhang Sect appeared, Aizen Sousuke had once again become that initial appearance — gentle, harmless.

"That would be for the best."

Xuanwozhang Sect nodded slightly, glanced at Konan beside him, and said: "Let's go back."

The instant Xuanwozhang Sect's words fell, the space where Xuanwozhang Sect stood directly became distorted.

As the space kept twisting, under Erza and the others' uncertain gazes, the background of the space where Xuanwozhang Sect stood changed in an instant — no longer the empty Gao Ta, but an island on a lake.

On the island there was a village, with light rain pattering down.

For some unknown reason.

Clearly it was a scene that looked extremely beautiful, yet it always gave people a feeling of being unable to breathe.
