Although the person had not yet appeared, through this voice, all the councilors present could feel the biting chill within the words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gran Doma’s face, which was already dark, turned several shades darker.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>During his tenure, the Magic Council had been forcibly intruded upon by people from another world twice; how would the outside world view him?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Incompetent?\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Or cowardly?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It must be said that Gran Doma could be considered the most aggrieved Council Chairman since the founding of the Magic Council.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although this time it was initiated by the Magic Council, Gran Doma did not believe he had done anything wrong.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No one can bully the Magic Council!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Summon Serena, Hyberion, and Warrod.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After speaking, Gran Doma took the first step and walked out of the council hall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After exchanging glances, the other councilors followed closely behind. This concerned the face of the entire Magic Council, and they absolutely would not allow anyone to trample on the dignity of the Magic Council!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>……\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In fact, there was no need for the Magic Council’s summons; the moment the owner of the voice appeared, Hyberion and Warrod had already arrived at the fastest speed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not only that, other Ten Wizard Saints and mages from major guilds were also arriving one after another, including Makarov, who had come for discussions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing the commotion outside and thinking it was an attack by people from another world, Makarov also arrived at the first opportunity. Upon arrival, he saw a man about thirty years old, wearing a purple shirt, dark shorts, and yellow short hair, standing in the plaza outside the Magic Council’s main hall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Around him, a large number of knights and mages had already surrounded him, but even so, the man remained calm, gazing ahead, his aura making people afraid to approach easily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What's going on? Why are you all here? And who is that guy?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the same time, Makarov noticed Natsu and the others not far from the man and immediately ran over to ask.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, perhaps due to being too excited, Natsu did not answer but instead said to Makarov with agitation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Old man, look, Ace is saved. Look, Ace’s companions are here!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ace’s companions?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing Natsu’s words, Makarov froze on the spot. Before he could react, Erza, who had followed along, stepped forward to add.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"They are companions from the Whitebeard Pirates of the Grand Line in the other world, just like Ace. I heard he is the First Division Commander of the Whitebeard Pirates.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Erza did not deliberately lower her voice, so everyone present heard her, which immediately caused a wave of exclamations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"A crew member of the Whitebeard Pirates, First Division Commander Marco?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How did they arrive so quickly? How did they get the news?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Judging by the situation, the other party seems to have come with ill intent.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If they are really prepared to make a move, then we have no choice, after all, the person is indeed in our hands.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But, are we just going to let them act so arrogantly over our heads?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>……\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Most of those qualified to stand here were guild masters; except for a portion who were negotiating with Makarov and the Council, the rest had rushed over upon receiving the news.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But unlike the friendly relationship between Fairy Tail and Ace, the vast majority of people present did not look kindly upon the people from the other world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Most felt resistance; as the true masters of this world, they naturally would not have a good impression of these outsiders.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Coupled with the fact that previous forces like the Witch Cult, the Akatsuki organization, and the World Government had caused huge disasters every time they appeared, they were naturally disgusted by these people from another world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although there were some 'good people' among them, such as Aizen helping them raid the Akatsuki organization, there was only one good person like Aizen after all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And judging from the descriptions, the other party might have been people from their world to begin with, only entering the Gotei 13 after becoming the dead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Therefore, with preconceived notions, they were naturally disgusted with this person who had just appeared, not to mention that forcibly breaking into the Magic Council was in itself a provocation to the entire magic world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It's really noisy. Is there no one who can come out and take charge?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The yellow-haired man, Marco, dug his ear and said impatiently when he heard these words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While he spoke, a look of contempt appeared on his face, as if the guild masters before him were just trash, completely ignored.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In an instant, as the words fell, the guild masters who had originally admired Marco for being undeterred despite being deep in enemy territory—partly out of respect for Makarov—also pulled long faces.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Admiration was one thing, but such an attitude was intolerable even for the most even-tempered people.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this, Makarov was suddenly furious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had spent a lot of effort and favors back and forth for this matter, all to get the Magic Council to release Ace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, Marco’s actions had rendered all his efforts completely wasted, and conversely, it had left him owing quite a few favors.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, Marco ignored all of this and just stepped forward, saying with a straight face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I am not here to negotiate with you, nor am I here to cause a scene or provoke. My purpose in coming is simply to take back my companion.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So, I will give you one chance now: before our Old Man finds out about this, hand over Ace.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boom—!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As soon as the words fell, the anger that had not yet dissipated rose again, and Makarov even gasped.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Good grief, are all the people of the Whitebeard Pirates this overbearing?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Previously, Ace dared to attack a councilor at the Magic Council headquarters, and now Marco, not to mention being deep in enemy territory, dared to speak like this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, Makarov didn't know what to say.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Conversely, he was actually quite interested in the \"Old Man\" Marco spoke of.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as the crowd was becoming angry because of Marco’s behavior, a figure walked out and interrupted their condemnation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Are you the so-called crew member of the Whitebeard Pirates?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at the man in front of him, Hyberion stepped forward and spoke slowly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And as Hyberion approached, the surrounding guards and mages retreated one after another, clearing a path in the middle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And with Hyberion’s appearance, everyone’s eyes were cast over; the Four Heavenly Kings of Ishgar were not so easy to see.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Especially the second-ranked Hyberion, even more so.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just by walking over without releasing magic power, the guild masters present could already feel the pressure from Hyberion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But to this, Marco remained calm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Are you the one in charge?\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1144,"2026-06-16T12:13:33.210Z","2026-06-16T12:23:18.059Z",1,"Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite","66f574160e357610ece29e5d5b02246f56645dac410d597fbb4715c1e92c5813","in-fairy-tail-apologies-i-am-the-mastermind-chapter-122","in-fairy-tail-apologies-i-am-the-mastermind-chapter-120",660,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fin-fairy-tail-apologies-i-am-the-mastermind-cover.jpg"]
