"With this power, has the world been saved?" Princess Hisui stared blankly at the Eclipse Gate, which was sealed by chains, and couldn't help but ask in a daze.
She simply couldn't imagine that the man named Zorn before her possessed such immense power, capable of easily sealing the Eclipse Gate.
Zorn patted his body, shook off the dust, and turned to Lucy, who was still in a daze, smiling, "Next, we'll need the power of a Star Spirit Mage to fully close the gate!"
"Both Lucys, I'm counting on you!" Zorn looked at Lucy encouragingly, his eyes full of trust.
Hearing this, the Lucy from the present time snapped back to reality and quickly nodded in understanding.
She quickly pulled out the Zodiac keys from her pocket, gripping them tightly in her hand.
However, as she prepared to act, she suddenly froze.
It seemed she didn't know what to do.
She turned her head and saw her other smiling self standing beside her, her eyes revealing a familiar and kind feeling.
"This is great, we finally made it, the future has indeed changed!" Future Lucy held the hands of the present Lucy, and as she spoke, tears of joy streamed uncontrollably down her face.
"We're still missing two Zodiac keys, but that person has already arrived!" Zorn looked at the scene before him, a slight smile curving his lips.
Zorn's gaze turned to the distance, where a beautiful figure stood—it was the grown-up Yukino.
Yukino was tall and beautiful, with short white hair that fluttered in the wind, exuding a charming allure.
Zorn felt genuinely Happy.
"Everyone, I'm here to help too!" Yukino shouted loudly as she ran. Her voice was clear and melodious, full of vitality.
She quickly pulled a key from her waist, then raised it high and continued.
"Lucy, please take out your Zodiac keys, and with my key, let us seal the gate together!"
After Yukino finished speaking, she forcefully tossed the key into the air.
As she moved, the key traced a graceful arc in the air, shimmering with golden light.
Seeing this, Lucy didn't hesitate for a moment. She immediately took out the remaining ten Zodiac keys from her embrace and threw them into the air as well.
The twelve keys attracted each other in the air, as if drawn by a mysterious force, forming a perfect circle. They emitted dazzling light, illuminating the entire sky.
"Lucy?"
It was only when Yukino ran closer that she realized there were two Lucys, and a hint of surprise welled up in her heart.
"I'm sorry, Yukino, we'll explain the situation to you later!" Future Lucy said apologetically with a smile, holding both their hands.
As the magic power of the three Star Spirit Mages surged forth, it resonated strongly with the twelve keys in the sky.
One by one, Celestial Spirits appeared behind the three, and then, at their whispered requests, transformed into streaks of light that rushed towards the two gates, pushing with all their might to close the doors.
"Indeed, every time I see this, I feel that Celestial Spirit Magic is truly beautiful!"
Zorn sighed, moving his hand to slowly transform the chains into starlight elements, supplementing the Celestial Spirits.
This also surprised the twelve Celestial Spirits, who all glanced at Zorn, but Zorn waved his hand at them, his nonchalant attitude also noted by the Celestial Spirits.
They planned to go back and ask the Celestial Spirit King what was going on.
As the gate gradually closed, Lucy's heart slowly settled down.
Finally, the gate closed completely, emitting a dull thud.
Future Lucy sighed in relief, leaning against Yukino, tears glistening in her eyes.
She knew they had succeeded.
Princess Hisui also looked at Zorn with gratitude, her heart filled with admiration and thanks.
Zorn looked at the surrounding situation, his heart heavy, knowing that it was too early to rejoice, because there were still those dragons to deal with.
His gaze turned to the giant dragons in the sky and the town; they were still rampaging.
"Natsu, Mirajane, Wendy, Happy, Carla, Lily, next, let's see the power of us, Fairy Tail!" Zorn called out names one by one, causing those named to be stunned.
As if asking, 'Who are you?'
Mirajane walked in front of them, her sharp gaze as if returning to the feeling of Mirajane, the She-Devil.
"There will be plenty of time to explain the specific reasons later, but this mark should be enough to prove my identity!" Zorn said with a smile.
Then, he directly displayed the Fairy Tail mark in his hand to Everyone.
Looking at the Fairy Tail mark on Zorn's hand, the few of them exchanged glances, surprise evident in their eyes.
Just then.
The Emerald Dragon let out a rampant and disdainful laugh: "Hahaha, you humans look delicious!" Its voice echoed in the air, carrying provocation and threat.
Clearly, the giant dragons above wouldn't give them much time to react.
"That guy!"
"Is it the one from the Dragon Graveyard?"
"How could it be!"
"Your laugh is truly unpleasant!" While the few were still surprised, Zorn's body flashed with light, and the next second, he appeared before the Emerald Dragon, kicking it directly in the jaw.
The sharp laugh came to an abrupt halt, and the enormous body flew backward, tumbling several times before stabilizing itself by flapping its wings.
"Damn it!" But anger filled its heart.
To be, to be...
To be sent flying by a human.
Roar~ The air above shook with the Emerald Dragon's furious roar.
Zorn, however, took a deep breath, smiling as he looked at the Emerald Dragon in the sky, completely unbothered by its anger.
"Flash Dragon's Roar!" Zorn directly opened his mouth, and a light-speed roaring tornado, carrying countless light powers, rushed towards the Emerald Dragon, directly blasting into its mouth.
The Emerald Dragon's eyes widened, filled with disbelief and shock.
It seemed it hadn't yet recovered from the previous blow, unable to believe what was happening before its eyes.
It opened its mouth, spewing a cloud of green smoke, clearly having sustained significant damage.
However, Zorn did not stop his attack.
Immediately after, he clapped his hands together again, and in the sky and on the ground, two enormous magic circles appeared before Everyone.
On the ground, beneath the sky, countless giant chains suddenly shot out, like fierce golden dragons, firmly locking the Emerald Dragon's four limbs securely in the sky.
Roar~ Roar~
"Human, what in the..."
The Emerald Dragon let out a painful howl, its voice echoing throughout the entire plaza.
It tried to struggle, but the chains bound it tightly, preventing it from moving.
A triumphant smile appeared on Zorn's face; he knew his attack had achieved significant results. This type of attack was difficult for even Acnologia to break free from, let alone the Emerald Dragon.
"Flash Dragon's Strike!" A golden light flashed in Zorn's eyes, and as his words fell, a giant sword, radiating dazzling light, appeared directly above the Emerald Dragon's head in the sky, like a sword of judgment descending from heaven.
The sword's blade shimmered with sharp light, its keen edge pointing directly at the ground.
"There's an old saying that goes, 'killing the chicken to scare the monkeys'!" Zorn's tone was smiling, but his eyes revealed a sharp intensity that sent shivers down one's spine.
"Since you've already died once, dying again won't be a big deal, will it?"
Zorn's lips curled slightly upward with a hint of a smile, but this smile brought no warmth; instead, it instilled endless fear.
The sharp, judgmental look in his eyes seemed as if he was scrutinizing everything before him, preparing to deliver the most severe punishment.
That intense killing intent made Natsu and Mirajane nearby shiver involuntarily.
They looked at Zorn in astonishment, unable to believe such cold words could come from someone who had just been so gentle.
The Emerald Dragon felt an unprecedented danger at this moment.
It desperately tried to dodge, but it was too late.
The giant sword in Zorn's hand glittered with dazzling light, filled with Dragon Slayer Magic.
Without hesitation, Zorn raised his arm high and swung it down forcefully; with one strike, half of the sword's blade deeply embedded itself into the ground, and the blade trembled incessantly.
Warm dragon blood dripped from the golden hilt, splashing onto the ground and forming vivid red flowers.
As the great sword descended, the Emerald Dragon's body began to totter. Its once proud posture instantly collapsed, and it finally fell from the sky, crashing heavily onto the ground.
Dust flew, and the ground shook, as if the entire world trembled with this single blow.
The entire venue fell into a terrifying silence, as if time itself had frozen. Everyone's mouths hung open, unable to utter a sound, only staring blankly at the scene before them.
Just half a minute ago, the gate had just closed, but now a giant dragon had fallen.
Such an event completely surpassed Everyone's imagination, making it unbelievable.
Not only that, but both the giant dragons in the sky and those fighting people in the town now had their gazes firmly fixed on Zorn.
Intense killing intent flickered in their dragon eyes, no longer carrying any hint of jest.
The sight of this human involuntarily reminded them of the man who had once dealt a heavy blow to the dragon race—Acnologia.
"Human!!!"
Roar, roar, roar~
