06x175 - Natsu vs. The Twin Dragons

[bunniefuu]

A showdown consisting of four
Dragon Slayers became a reality

during the team battle on Day 4
of the Grand Magic Games.

It was Natsu and Gajeel
versus Sting and Rogue.

At last, Fairy Tail's battle against
Sabertooth's Twin Dragons began,

with fellowship and pride on the line.

Fairy Tail, the light grasped by these hands

We won't let our dream
paradise end as a mere dream

When we meet someday,
I want to let my future self know

The future can sometimes be
cruel and shatter like a mirror

but we just need to pick up
its pieces without losing any

Even if the freezing darkness blocks our path

we'll never lose our hope

Fairy Tail, the light grasped by these hands

is filled with the power of our bonds

We've experienced tears of sadness

so we won't give in or waver

until we've reached that day we dreamed of

Quit annoying me!

Hey, you!

Th-This is...!

I can handle you myself.

Come on, both of you!

Oh, my!

Now Natsu Dragneel of Fairy Tail
has declared a 1-on-2 battle!

Are you fired up now?

Natsu vs. the Twin Dragons.

Get 'em, Natsu!

What happened to Gajeel?

You're wonderful, Gray, my darling!

Natsu is the one fighting, actually.

Rogue...

Sting! The fight's just begun!

Is that the one?!

It seems like Zeref, but somehow different...

They're in the stands again.

Jellal! Don't let the person get away this time!

I know!

I'm concerned about the
match too, but for now...!

You can handle us yourself?

Don't be stupid!

I've no business with you. Let me fight Gajeel.

You'll have to b*at me first, then.

The Dragon Force is the same
strength as the dragons'.

Nothing in this world can possibly be stronger!

Maybe yours isn't perfected, then?

Natsu...

I wonder how the match is going.

Natsu's team is gonna win,
of course. They're men!

I understand your concern, but you
need to focus on getting some rest

and recovering your strength and magic power.

But...

I'm sure Mr. Natsu will be just fine!

Gajeel, too.

They're both so tough

that you could hang a painting of
the word on their walls. You know?

You're right!

--Well said!
--Nice one, Charle! You're a real man!

I'm a girl, I'll have you know!

Good grief...

My power is perfect!

I used this same power...

...to k*ll Weisslogia!

You don't say?

In that case, I'll use this power...

...to fight for my friends you humiliated.

--Look out, Natsu!
--Behind you!

Shadow Dragon...

...Roar!

Fire Dragon Roar!

I'm not finished yet!

Frosch...

I... can keep going...!

Bring it on.

Man, that jerk sure looks happy.

It's not that the other two are weak.

But the stronger his opponents are,

the more Natsu is able to expand
his own power in response.

His opponents are formidable, too.

Their refusal to give up is remarkable.

They're all very impressive.

Truly astounding.

I had forgotten that he
may be slow in the head,

but he's quick-witted
when it comes to fighting.

A wonderful parfum, Natsu!

Damn! Just how strong is he?

--H-He's strong!
--That's Natsu for you!

So, where did Gajeel go?!

I'm scared to think about
when he comes back...

Whoa, is this for real?

I've no memory of the Dragon Force's
power being overwhelmed like this.

Power, huh...

Sting!

Please make me your student!

Huh?

I saw you fight earlier!

I want to be strong, too!

You mean...

You're not afraid of me?

I'm not afraid!

I... want to be strong!

A cat for a student, huh?

Well, whatever. Follow me.

Sting...

Sting!

Yeah!

This sensation...

Their magic power has changed again.

They've started to merge
their magic power together.

I never managed to get strong...

But I love seeing your
strength in action, Sting!

A Unison Raid!

With it, their minds, breathing,
and magic power become as one.

But...

Natsu! Dodge it!

You can do it, Rogue...

Sting is...

Sting is unstoppable!

There are some walls that
power alone can't topple.

Natsu?

Mr. Yajima! What is that?!

A Unison Raid. It's what
you might call fusion magic.

It's generally considered
to be such advanced magic

that you could spend your entire
life training and never master it.

This is the power of the Twin Dragons.

However...

Holy Shadow Dragon Flash Fang!

He's not moving! Does he intend to block it?!

Natsu.

Happy? Is something the matter?

Is he seein' you off? I'm goin' on ahead.

Not really.

Oh, okay. See you later, then!

I'm not going to say anything.

I'm not going to say anything!

Yeah. I understand you, partner.

It's Sabertooth, revered as
the mightiest guild in Fiore,

versus Fairy Tail, the mightiest
guild seven years ago!

Four dragons are duking
it out in their team battle!

One of them went off somewhere, though.

An intense battle between
Natsu and the Twin Dragons

is currently taking place beneath the arena!

It's gotten quiet.

No, I sense a strange tension in the air...

Do you, too?

Yeah. I think it might be...

Hey. How you feeling?

I'm okay. Is your match about to start?

Yeah. I'm gonna go win it for sure.

Natsu...

I believe in you.

I always have, since I first joined the guild.

Yeah! You can count on me!

Tension, my eye! You're pathetic!

You just have dull senses!

A married couple routine at a time like this?!

We're not a couple!

"No matter how far apart we are,
I'll always be watching over you..."

Just take a look.

You're surrounded by a great group of kids...

...Makarov.

There are some walls that
power alone can't topple.

But if there is a power that
can break through them...

Holy Shadow Dragon Flash Fang!

...it's the power of feelings.

Dragon Slayer Secret Art!

Flame Lotus: Exploding Flame Blade!

Oh, my!

It appears the fighters' major
techniques have connected,

resulting in an intense shock!

We're having technical difficulties
with the broadcast lacrimas!

Please stand by!

I don't sense any magic power...

Is the fight over?

Oh, my! Sorry for the delay!

It looks like the feed to the
lacrima-trons has been restored!

Natsu Dragneel...

Your power...

...knows no bounds...

Lector...

Natsu... is just too strong...

I-Incredible...

Natsu Dragneel is the one still standing!

A guild is where feelings are nurtured.

Fairy Tail has bested the Twin Dragons!

Fairy Tail wins!

They've taken the lead!

This marks the end of Day 4
of the Grand Magic Games!

The final round will take place in two
days' time, after a break tomorrow!

The final day will feature...

...a survival battle consisting of
every participating team member!

Which guild will win it all?!

You won't want to miss it!

I knew it would turn out this way!

I have to admit, they're impressive.

Our target for the final day has changed!

Bring it on!

Fairy Tail's goin' down!

I'm coming for you, Gray!

Laxus, grandson of Sir Makarov...

Erza...

Gajeel, huh?

Let's have some fun, Natsu.

Lector?

I can't believe they actually lost...

That was a fascinating match.

I've fully committed it to memory.

Now we can hold this
over them for a little while.

Assuming they have
"a little while", of course...

Th-This guy is...!

Saber's master!

The power of feelings, huh?

Sure... I'll let you have this win.

We're gonna keep winning after this anyway.

We don't need a lousy extra point or two.

Don't you dare sneer at one point, boy!

Let's fight again sometime!

An utter defeat.

If Gajeel is as strong of a fighter as Natsu...

I can't believe how cocky I must've been...

You did it, Natsu!

I gotta hurry and tell Lucy!

Good going, Natsu!

I guess!

I'll give you genuine praise for today, Natsu.

You're really something.

--You think?
--Don't be embarrassed.

Hard!

That was a great performance...

But what happened to Gajeel?

Oh, yeah, that jerk suddenly
ran off at some point!

Does he even know what "team battle" means?!

Have you seriously forgotten
what you did yourself?!

That's Natsu for you!

Get some rest tomorrow in preparation
for the final day's survival battle.

The final round, huh?

We're gonna finish things once and for all!

First we win! Then I'll fight you both!

Very well.

Man, you're really getting ahead of yourself.

--Welcome back!
--You're not gonna ask how it went?

I told you. I've always believed in you,
since I first joined the guild.

But this ain't the end.
It's just getting started.

Let's fight to win! Right?

Of course. We've come this far and all.

Yeah, we started in last place on the first day.

The crowd even booed us.

We suffered humiliation and frustration...

But now victory is one step away!

It's just like you said, Natsu!

"We're gonna make a comeback
from our 0 point start!"

"Let's save our tears for when we win!"

Yeah! "Let's climb the ranks!"

"We don't know the meaning of 'give up'!"

Let's win the 30 million Jewel!

That's not what this is about!

Let's win the title of Fiore's greatest!

Yeah!

A lot has happened since I joined the guild...

...but I really am glad to be a member!

This is what Fairy Tail is all about!

I'm right here, even in this maze of darkness

Let's call out to each other
and keep moving forward

This path may be devoid of landmarks

but I have a friend I can count on

Your eyes shine brightly

Brighter than light itself

We're the stars, and we each hold one tightly

as we keep walking

And when we hold our hands together,
we make a constellation

Let's shine, to the ends of our future

I believe

That damn Salamander...

He is so dead!

But where am I, anyway?

Is this beneath the coliseum?

Wh-What is this?

A dragon... graveyard?!

Jellal? What's your status?

Don't tell us they got away?

No. I'm following at a distance.

I plan to make a move
when no one else is around.

Understood.

I won't let you get away this time.

Your magic power is similar to Zeref's...

Just who are you?

Sabertooth has been defeated... by Sir Natsu.

You must feel very conflicted, Sergeant Yukino.

No. I have no lingering
attachments to that guild.

But I do find it hard to get
used to being called "Sergeant."

My apologies.

But given your participation
in the Eclipse Project,

you needed to be given a rank of some sort.

The Eclipse Project...

If my ability can be of use,
then I am prepared to give my all.

For Sir Arcadios as well,
who so kindly invited me to this post.

Wait, should I call him "Colonel" instead?

Don't worry about it.

I call him "Chief" myself,
and his old friends call him "Dio."

I see.

What a gauche gentleman he is, though.

He's trying to save the world,
yet no one pays him any attention.

Is something wrong, Charle?

No...

That premonition of the
castle crumbling again...

We did it, Lu!

Levy!

How are you two feeling?

We brought you some grub!

If we keep going like this,
we might just win it all!

Of course! There's no way
that lineup would ever lose!

Yeah! Especially after seeing today's fight!

I can't even imagine them losing!

Say, have you seen Gajeel at all?

Huh? Now that you mention it...

He's not back yet?

He's probably out eatin' iron or something.

He'll come back sooner or later!

You're right!

"That day, we were certain we could win.

The fighting on the final day
was really intense.

I wonder if you remember, Lu.

More than anything, though, July 7th...

...is the day the word 'fate'
spelled our defeat."

"They d*ed. Both of them.

Even though we loved them..."

"I can't put it into words, Lu.

I can't take it anymore...

Someone, please help...!"

Halt.

I'll reveal my identity if you reveal yours.

A girl?

It can't be!

We're the stars, and we each hold one tightly

as we keep walking

"Thanks everyone! See you another time!"

Thanks, everyone!

See you another time!
