Chapter 487

Before Hitsugaya Toushirou and Aizen could even begin to clash with each other,

countless sounds of explosions came from outside, and the residents of the entire Magnolia town began to flee in panic.

But as more and more rumbling sounds rang out, Fairy Tail's building also began to shake violently.

As if a massive earthquake had struck, quite a few mages lost their footing and tumbled to the ground.

"How could it be... Has the Alvarez Empire already attacked this fast?"

Makarov's face turned slightly pale as he looked toward the guild's main gate.

The dust and smoke from the explosions lingered outside, refusing to dissipate for a long time.

"As long as someone repels the Alvarez Empire, I am willing to hand over Fairy Heart!"

"But! If you try to take it by force, even if it costs this old man's life, I will detonate Fairy Heart on the spot."

"As people from another world, you should know very well what would happen once that thing is detonated."

"I'm afraid no one present would survive!"

Makarov's expression was solemn as he stepped in front of the group of children behind him.

His manner and words didn't look like a joke at all.

Hueco Mundo, the Monu Sect, the Spirit Seal, and the Seven Deadly Sins all fell silent.

Lin Cheng, who was controlling everything from afar, did not make any move; instead, the corner of his mouth curved into a smile.

If Makarov were truly pushed to the brink, he might really do something like that.

"No problem, then Captain Hitsugaya, shall we cease hostilities first?"

Aizen smiled faintly and looked at Hitsugaya Toushirou before him, as well as the other two factions.

Everyone tacitly agreed to this matter.

"Old man, don't forget what you promised."

"Otherwise..."

The corner of Lei Gu's mouth twitched slightly, and in a flash he took the other two Mingsi Sect members and left.

Immediately after, Aizen and Ichimaru Gin, along with Hitsugaya Toushirou and three other captains, also departed together using Shunpo.

All that remained were the two members of the Seven Deadly Sins.

"You two bastards, why aren't you leaving?"

Natsu looked at the two strangers still standing in place, a flash of hostility crossing his eyes.

Just as the flames in his hands were about to erupt, he was stopped by Makarov.

"You two must be Lord Meliodas and Lord Ban, I presume."

"During the wasteland war, this old man was impressed by the feats of you two."

Makarov had already confirmed their identities. Since they were also people of the Fiore Kingdom, his tone became a touch gentler.

But he still harbored some wariness toward these two.

Because he didn't understand whether these two had also come for Fairy Heart.

If they had come for Fairy Heart, they too would be extremely troublesome opponents to deal with.

"That's right, Mr. Makarov, we still hope you can hand Fairy Heart directly over to us."

Meliodas and Ban exchanged a glance, then looked directly at Makarov.

They stated the reason for their coming. Although no force was used, the invisible pressure still lingered within the guild hall.

Even Erza felt some hesitation. Although the two were riddled with openings everywhere, she still did not dare to strike first.
