"Concerned Lucy"
What's wrong, Lucy?
Your face looks dejected.
Did you know? If you keep sighing, your soul will be taken.
Happy, that's wrong. It's tongue.
Could you please be normal for a second?!
It's about my novel.
I'm writing my next story, but...
I can't come up with any ideas.
Even though I've already asked the editor to extend the deadline by a week...
Editor?
Just send that person flying and extend it again.
I can't!
What kind of story is it?
It's an adventure mystery about a couple who face a large group of gigantic anteaters.
Maybe that is the reason why you can't think of any ideas.
Geez! That doesn't matter!
I want to focus, so leave!
Right! I got this for you.
A quest that's perfect for you right now.
(Subjugating Gigantic Anteaters) (Reward: 200,000 J)
Amazing! It really is perfect for her!
Why does that exist?
Wait, I'm not going!
I don't have time for this.
It's fine. Let's go!
You're not going to get ideas if you just sit here anyway.
What should I do?
It's true that I can't come up with ideas.
I've got it!
I need to takes notes before I forget!
- So she easily forgets if doesn't take notes. - Hey! Don't lick!
- So she easily forgets if doesn't take notes. - Natsu! Do something!
Lucy! We're in the middle of a quest! (Fairy Tail 100 Years Quest is starting)
I will never fall into despair in this world
Our real bond will open up a path for tomorrow
At night, I even forget to notice
The continuation of dreams I can't see
And the sounds of anxiety that everyone holds
Let's accept it all and make it come true
The time has passed at an impossible speed
While I recall it, the "present" is slipping away
I will never fall into despair in this world
Our real bond will open up a path for tomorrow
If you hold onto hope after coming this far
I'll seek the meaning of the promises we exchanged
For the "Story" of the future
We will retreat for today.
If you continue to pursue dragons,
then we will definitely meet again.
Please...
Please kill the Water Dragon God and end his suffering.
What is this sound?
(Lineage of Fire)
Is he pulling up the ocean with magic?
That's some power he has.
How are we supposed to fight him?
So this is a dragon god?
Here it comes!
This city... Ermina is going to be destroyed.
Water Dragon God's rage is going to destroy everything.
Happy!
Aye, sir!
Stop!
Natsu!
Fire Dragon King's...
Roar!
That can't be...
He blew out Natsu's flame?
Damn it!
Water pillars are coming again!
Same trick won't work twice!
Freeze!
I'll make the path.
Okay!
Let's go!
Yeah!
Natsu? Since when he...
I know you don't really want to do this.
You love this city, after all.
So I'm gonna stop you.
Dragon Slaying Ultimate Technique!
Crimson Lotus: Exploding Flame Blade!
Natsu's flames...
They were all extinguished?
What is that huge whirlpool?
Natsu! Get away from there!
Natsu!
It's sucking me in!
Natsu!
What the heck...
We're completely helpless.
Freeze!
Crap!
Freeze, damn it!
Natsu!
Natsu...
This one is mine, Water Dragon God.
You shall not have him.
What's with this hand?
It wants Natsu?
Does that thing know Natsu?
Let me go!
This magical energy...
I can sense it, too.
This presence...
...is a dragon!
A fire...
...dragon!
Could it possibly be...
...one of the Five Dragon Gods?
His scent...
Mercphobia. What happened to you?
It's not like you to go crazy like this.
It's the same...
...as Igneel.
Don't lose against something like him, Natsu.
Natsu!
Who are you?!
Fire magic is indeed weak against water magic.
We can't do anything about that.
But look at him.
That's not his real power.
He isn't even using half his power.
You're kidding!
He hasn't even been fighting seriously?
Impossible.
We can't win.
And yet you're losing against him? Pathetic!
You call yourself Igneel's son?
You know Igneel?
I'll help you out, just a little.
The power of fire is the power to burn everything.
Burn the whole world.
Live in the very flames of hell, Natsu.
What is this?
He's turning the city into a sea of fire.
First water, then fire? What kind of test is this?
No way!
Why you...
Burn! Burn! Burn everything to ashes!
You think burning the whole city is helping?
This is absurd!
Water Dragon God... He's saving us with his water.
He's truly our guardian deity.
They were just being attacked with water a little while ago.
Yet now they're a merry bunch.
He wasn't protecting the city, but protecting himself.
Even if my magic is at a disadvantage, there is a fire that can burn up water.
Like mine, for instance.
Just put out those flames! The city's going to-
You put them out.
If you're just standing still, Mercphobia will blow everything away.
This is my gift to you.
It won't last long, but it'll give you power just for a bit.
Isn't that right? Fire Dragon Slayer.
You put the fire out by eating them, so eat my flames.
Who's gonna eat your flames?
This is not the time for you to complain.
If you don't eat my flames, you won't be able to save this city.
You won't be able to beat Mercphobia either.
And I'm not going to fight Mercphobia.
Otherwise, you won't be able to grow stronger.
Just what are you after?
I want to fight you.
But only when you're stronger.
One against one, until one of us is reduced to ashes.
You realized I have the same scent as Igneel's, right?
I'm Ignia, the Fire Dragon God.
Igneel's biological son.
You're Igneel's son?
Don't screw with me! Igneel's son was-
I know.
He did treat you like his own son, but I'm his son by blood.
The biological son of Igneel, the Fire Dragon King.
Igneel was a pure dragon. He didn't transform into a human.
This kind of transformation is nothing to us, even the Water Dragon God has it.
Dragons don't normally form families.
After their eggs come out, the mother takes care of the rest.
They will never see their father again.
That's why when Igneel died for the future of humanity,
I didn't feel sad at all.
Four hundred years ago, we escaped from Aconologia and fled to Guiltina.
The five of us who survived stayed here as the Five Dragon Gods.
Our powers eventually surpassed even that of Acnologia whom we once feared.
I wanted to kill Acnologia with my own hands.
Not to get revenge for Igneel,
but to test my own strength.
Yet Acnologia lost to humans.
I was curious since I heard that the one who did it was Igneel's son.
In fact, you are so weak.
It took a group of Dragon Slayers, working together to defeat him.
The power of friendship is our strength.
No, that won't do.
Fight me one-on-one, someday.
But right now, it'd be no fun. So grow stronger.
Let's have a battle that will light the world on fire.
Don't worry.
If you don't want to, I will give you a reason.
I'm going to kill your precious friends one at a time.
You get stronger when you're angry, I see.
Use it against Mercphobia.
If you don't,
the Water Dragon God will kill your friends before I do.
We'll meet again, Natsu.
That bastard!
Natsu!
Are you okay?
Who was that?
What was he saying to you?
Do you know him, Natsu?
Not really.
We'll explain it later!
He said Natsu has to eat the flames!
That's right! Eat the flames to get you stronger.
But I don't wanna eat that bastard's flames!
This is not the time to choose the means!
Natsu, you have to use those flames for now!
I'm Igneel's biological son.
Hurry up! Look at what's happening here!
Damn it!
He looks like a bug.
A bug, huh...
I hate to admit it.
But these flames do smell like Igneel's.
I can feel the power!
I'm fired up!
Natsu!
Holy crap!
He threw that huge dragon!
Natsu, that's amazing!
Now, we don't know who the monster is anymore.
So this is the power of those flames.
Those flames sear the sea, scorch the sky and the land.
For the first time, I'm scared of Natsu's flames.
His body is swelling!
That is...
A roar! A big one!
Natsu!
The current Natsu can deal with it!
Water Dragon God...
Fire Dragon King's Brilliant Flame!
The water is vaporized!
Did he do it?
Not yet!
Let's go, everyone! I can't beat him alone!
We won against Acnologia because we did it together!
I can't fight without all of you for the rest of my life!
Fight me one-on-one.
Until I'm strong enough to beat that bastard...
Everyone! Please lend me your strength!
Since we already got the Dragon Slayer seal.
Yes, we will!
Aim the bottom of his body!
It will throw him off balance!
Yeah!
Take this!
Do it now, Natsu!
Fire Dragon King's...
Demolishing Strike!
Water Dragon God...
This was for the best.
Not yet.
His body's still here.
Natsu?
I must burn all of it.
Burn all of it to ashes.
Natsu, stop it!
Natsu!
It's... It's already over.
Natsu.
It's all right.
I'm here.
Over?
You and I are holding the ends of the same rope
Pulling with a strong force
Creating a tense connection, taut feeling
We've always helped each other out no matter when
But leaning on each other too much isn't good
It's time to let go
For both of us
Even if we part ways here
Our bond will never break, it's an invisible belief
From this point on, that will be something eternal
It's our story
O friend, this is where we say goodbye
We can't keep supporting each other forever
O friend, as if competing against each other
We grow stronger by standing on our own
