Really? Come on!
[ERZA] However, my feelings
as a fellow member
of the guild are different.
We have no other choice but to
bring Makarov home, and quickly.
Which means,
only those in this room
will join the mission.
A small team works best.
We'll infiltrate Alvarez, rescue
our master, and make our escape.
This will not be an all-out w*r.
Hear me? We need focus.
That means we won't be starting
any unnecessary fights.
Am I clear?
Yeah, sure.
Let's do it you guys!
Gramps is counting on us!
[JURA] All the paperwork
looks to be in order.
Erza Scarlet as guild master.
Excellent choice, indeed.
So that means it's official now!
Fairy Tail is a guild again!
[JURA]
Mh-hm.
Let's hope that we'll have more
good news with Makarov's return.
[gasps]
Yeah.
This is bittersweet.
You've been a great
help to the council.
We will miss your
diligence and dedication.
[LEVY]
Aw, thank you.
Warrod, you seem to be
in a good mood today.
[WARROD]
Hmmm.
Well, I thought the guild
splitting up was a joke,
and this turn of events
proves my theory.
[WARROD]
If they can pull off Mest's plan
of rescuing Makarov,
that will make me truly happy.
[LEVY]
Warrod, sir.
Excuse me, but you're
spilling your water!
[WARROD]
Hmm?
Actually, I'm just taking a
moment to relieve myself.
Don't worry, I'm only
joking, of course.
[LEVY groans]
[WOLFHEIM] You think this is an
appropriate time for jokes?
These are dangerous times
that we're living in, old man.
Wolfheim, you're here, too?
I couldn't sense you at all.
Oh, wow.
He's one of the Four
Emperors of Ishgar, too.
It's always an appropriate
time for laughter.
In fact, hearing your name
always makes me guffaw.
[chuckles]
You know I'm only
playing around with you.
Well, I don't find it
the least bit funny!
Tensions are
continuing to escalate
between Ishgar and Alvarez,
and your idea of dealing with it
is watering plants and
cracking jokes, huh?
[LEVY whimpers]
Calm down, Wolfheim.
You'll scare our guest!
[HYBERION]
That's quite enough.
[chuckles]
[grunts]
[HYBERION] Our days of simply
acting as we please are over.
We are an august
body of leadership.
Our behavior needs to reflect
our position accordingly.
[LEVY] I can't believe
I'm in the same room
as three of the Four
Emperors of Ishgar.
As you said, tensions
are indeed running high.
But it is our duty
to bring the world
into an era of stability.
If a w*r erupted, our defeat
would be inevitable.
Which means the onus is upon us
to arrive at a
peaceful resolution.
You're saying the Alvarez
Empire is really that powerful?
I mean, we do have God
Serena fighting on our side!
God Serena shares our history.
Once a fellow Emperor of Ishgar,
and the highest ranking member
amongst the Wizard Saints.
In short, he's
rightly considered
to be the mightiest wizard
on the continent.
Yes, that's true.
So you should
understand my confusion
as to why he's not currently
a member of the Magic Council.
This makes me nervous.
Why is everyone so quiet?
I don't know.
I hope he hasn't been met
with some kind of misfortune.
[HYBERION] God Serena
has abandoned Ishgar.
He's traveled to Alakitasia and
sworn allegiance to Alvarez.
[BOTH gasp]
No! Really?
[HYBERION]
Their emperor, Spriggan,
has an elite personal guard,
the Spriggan .
Our former comrade
has joined their ranks.
[LEVY]
The Spriggan ? Wait.
[HYBERION]
It's quite troubling.
And would indicate that there
are eleven others on par
with the most powerful
wizard from our continent.
That is the kind of
might Alvarez wields.
[NATSU]
We had to take a boat?
How'd you think we'd
cross the ocean?
[NATSU] I dunno, can't
Mest, like, zap us over?
Too far for my direct line.
Hey, Wendy, you have a
tummy spell, don't ya?
[NATSU, LUCY]
Aw, man!
I'm so sorry.
But I recently started
to get motion sickness
just like you, Natsu.
[LUCY]
You poor thing!
Unfortunately, Wendy
can't use her Troia magic
when she's in this state.
You think a fishie
would help her?
[GRAY]
All right, fine.
Let me carry ya to your bunks.
[NATSU, WENDY groaning]
Happy to help.
Where did all your clothes go?!
[GRAY]
Dunno.
[LUCY]
Hey! Stay away from me!
[GRAY]
Come on, Lucy!
Would ya calm down?
Help me find my shirt!
What's on your mind, Erza?
Sorry. Suppose I should
call you "master."
Erza is fine with me.
I was thinking
about our situation.
Makarov went as far as
disbanding the guild
to keep us safe.
And all this time, he's been
hiding the Lumen Histoire
from an outside force.
But what's perplexing
is why he felt he had to go
to such extreme lengths.
Perhaps if I knew what the
Lumen Histoire actually is,
I could make sense of it.
Honestly, I'm as in
the dark as you are.
But I believe it's
some kind of w*apon.
I had heard a rumor about it.
That Gramps actually considered
activating it to stop the FACES.
I heard the same thing,
but for whatever reason,
he ultimately decided not to.
Are you saying that
if he did activate it,
it would be powerful enough to
counteract all of those FACES?
Crazy.
Maybe the biggest mystery...
is the first master's body.
Why is she in there,
and is she alive or dead?
Yes, it certainly is odd,
especially since
we've interacted
with projections of her
from time to time.
[GRAY] There're so many
unanswered questions.
Hopefully, Master Makarov will
shed more light on everything
once he's safe and sound.
[ERZA] How long will it
take us to get to Alvarez?
Let me think.
Sailing for ten days?
Then several more on land.
Quite a journey.
I'm worried about him as well,
but we can't be hasty.
We'll need to make a
stop on Caracol Island.
Stock up on provisions,
food and some other supplies.
A town not named after
a plant or flower.
That's one way to know
you're outside of Fiore.
[ERZA] Are you sure we really
have the time to make a stop?
[MEST]
I said we can't be hasty.
This kind of
infiltration mission
requires thorough preparation.
What do you mean by that?
Good intelligence.
We'll be meeting up with an
agent while we're there.
They'll tell us how we can
sneak into the Empire.
So you're positive that Laxus
is all the way out here?
Yep, according to my sources,
we should find him
and his toadies.
Wait, the Thunder Legion?
We know you came with us
to track down Evergreen.
What did I do to get stuck
on this team anyway?
It's not some kind
of punishment.
Gray and the others just
went off without us.
Yeah.
But I wonder if it
was necessary for us
to split up into teams.
They took on a mission to
infiltrate the enemy, correct?
That's exactly what
they should've done.
After all, we'd be
completely outclassed
in a fight with Alvarez.
There'd be no chance of us
even walking away from it.
[gasps]
That's true.
And I doubt an infiltration
mission will fare much better.
[LEVY]
Realistically speaking,
the odds of either option
working are close to nil.
That's the whole reason for
doing this in separate teams.
To tip those odds a little
more in our favor. You see?
So, do you wanna explain
why you left without me?
Huh.
You're just so tiny
that I assumed
you musta been stowin'
away in my bag.
That was my mistake, sorry.
Nothin' personal.
[LEVY]
Jeez! Stupid metal-brained jerk!
Are they flirting
with each other?
Well, if you're lonely,
I can throw some
attention your way.
Thank you. But I'll be fine.
Seriously, you guys.
This enemy's different.
They're super dangerous.
Don't even think of fighting
them, no matter what.
[MEST]
There it is. Caracol Island.
[GRAY] Great, let's get
ready to disembark.
[ERZA]
Wait.
Something's wrong.
[GRAY gasps]
That's the crest of
the Alvarez m*llitary!
What are they doin'
way out here?
That's a very good question.
Caracol isn't in
their territory!
It appears they're performing
an inspection at the harbor.
[GRAY growls]
How the hell are we gonna
get on that island now?
Sounds like they're tryin' to
catch a spy. That's not good.
From what I can tell,
they haven't been able
to catch him yet, though.
Huh?
Hold on. You can hear
them this far away?
[BOTH]
Oh, yeah, but just barely.
[BOTH retch]
So, what now?
We're gonna have to make contact
with our agent quickly,
while we can.
[SOLDIER A]
This is a restricted zone!
[SOLDIER B]
Everyone form a line!
[SOLDIER C] Be prepared
to show identification
and submit to a search before
entering or exiting the area!
What in the world
is this all about?
I don't know, but I
heard that there's a spy
running from the Empire,
and the m*llitary
tracked him out here.
A heck of a way to
start a vacation.
Natsu. Promise me you'll behave.
Yeah, yeah, I promise.
[SOLDIER A]
Next.
We're a couple of fun-loving
girls on a sightseeing vacay!
We'd love to sample some of
Caracol's famous Star Mangoes!
Yummy!
This'll be great! Right, Sis?
Oh, yeah!
Please don't blow our cover.
Yeah, our story has
to be believable.
[SOLDIER A] Hm? Is that a
guild crest on your hand?
Yes, sir, we're wizards!
From the Cait Shelter guild!
[ERZA]
Our disguise is perfect.
[WENDY]
This brings back memories!
[SOLDIER A]
Never heard of that one before.
[SOLDIER B]
Don't look at me,
I only know a handful of guilds
from Ishgar to begin with.
[SOLDIER A]
What should we do about this?
They told us to be especially
thorough with wizards.
[SOLDIER B]
I dunno.
But do you think the spy's
contacts would waltz in here
showing off their guild marks?
[SOLDIER C]
Good point.
[LUCY]
Excuse us.
[SOLDIERS]
Huh?
But would you let us
through, pretty please?
All I want is a Star Mango.
Would you deny me that pleasure?
[SOLDIERS gasp]
[SOLDIER A]
All right!
Let's see those ID's
and belongings!
[SOLDIERS]
You may pass!
[LUCY chuckles]
That worked out.
Putty in your hands.
Nicely done, ladies.
Seems my charm works
on human males, too.
Yeah, well.
I don't really think we had much
to do with what just happened.
I think your feline form
is much cuter anyway.
[GRAY] Man, this whole place
is practically crawlin'
with those Alvarez soldiers.
We need to be on
our best behavior.
Yeah. Don't do
anything stupid, Natsu.
Why is everybody pickin' on me?
Because you're the only
one who doesn't grasp
what infiltration
means, obviously.
I know what it means!
Like, bein' sneaky.
I think you're forgetting
something, Erza.
I am ninja.
[LITTLE KID A crying]
[BOTH]
Huh?
[LITTLE KID A] You better
gimme my daddy back!
[SOLDIER D]
Huh?
[NATSU]
Hm?
Where did you take him to?
Please! I want Daddy!
[SOLDIER D]
The little brat must get this
from his mouthy old man.
Stand down, Natsu.
It's hard to watch,
but we cannot interfere.
Please, mister! Bring
my daddy back, right now!
[SOLDIER E] Shut the
hell up or I'll k*ll you!
Did he thr*aten
that little boy?!
He's only a child!
[CROWD gasps]
[SOLDIER F]
What's going on here?
Don't worry, you're okay.
Man, we are so screwed.
Ninja Butt-Kicking Technique!
What the heck was that?
Those kids in swimsuits
b*at up the guards!
I can't believe my eyes.
[SOLDIER F] All right,
you. Stop right there!
[NATSU]
You talkin' to me?
We're never getting
off this island now!
Come on. We just have
to b*at them first.
I promise I'll find your daddy.
Wendy has an awesome
sense of smell,
so I'm sure she'll have no
problem sniffin' him out.
Mest. You go, too.
You sure?
[giggles]
[WENDY giggling]
[MEST]
She's an angel.
No way!
You're supposed to be
meeting up with the spy!
[MEST]
Uh.
Oh, yeah. You keep
the guards distracted.
Now that's teamwork!
[NATSU]
Ninja Multi-Team Technique!
Ninja!
Guys. Please be careful!
[NATSU]
All right!
We can't afford to go too crazy.
Yeah, I hear ya. I promise
I'll keep my cool.
Sounds like a plan.
[SOLDIER J]
Secure the perimeter!
[SOLDIER K]
Capture them!
[NATSU]
In your dreams!
[GRAY]
Well, that was easy.
I don't get why Gramps thought
these jokers were so scary.
One thing is certain.
They will be sending
out reinforcements.
Hey.
Ya think we should
ask these clowns
if they know where Gramps is?
Sounds like a total
waste of time to me.
They probably don't
know anything.
And we'd basically just
be telling the enemy
what our true goal is.
Listen up. We have
to stay alert.
[NATSU]
So good.
[LUCY]
There is a pretty big difference
between "staying alert"
and "stuffing your face."
[MERCHANT A]
Here ya go!
I appreciate the business,
but try not to cause
another scene, okay?
I am sorry about that.
I gotta say, man,
even with all this trouble,
seems like you're doin' well.
You must really know a
lot about running a shop.
That was definitely
not the first brawl
we've seen around here.
But I'm never gonna
let go of my dream!
Savin' up, and then,
Ishgar here I come!
Cool!
[MERCHANT A] You guys are
from there, aren't ya?
We are.
Mark my words.
The Star Mango is gonna be
a massive hit in Ishgar!
And my shop is gonna be
the number one place
to get it on the
whole continent!
Nice! Sounds delici--
Uh. I mean, delightful.
All I've got right now is this
one shabby little shack.
But I dream of a bunch
of shops in Ishgar.
I'm not gonna let this ruckus--
[screams]
What the--?!
The stand blew up!
[gasps]
[MARIN]
You are an A-plus!
Who are you?! What do you want?
Oh, that fire in your
eyes is delicious!
Yeah! A-plus-plus maybe!
My name is Marin Hollow.
I'm a member of the
Alvarez Imperial Army's
Brandish Division.
[NATSU growls]
[MERCHANT A]
My Star Mangoes.
All of my hopes and dreams...
Everything's in ruins.
[MERCHANT A]
Huh?
[LUCY]
Take that and run.
[GRAY]
Sorry, man.
I know it's not much,
but it should help a little.
I'll avenge your Star
Mangos! I promise you!
Now that's what I wanna hear!
You should get a gold star!
I've had enough
of your nonsense.
You'll pay dearly for
spoiling my sweets!
Requip!
[gasps]
[chuckles]
Smash him! Now!
[gasps]
I can't... Requip.
[MARIN]
No, you can't!
Because I am the
master of space!
What's that mean?
By Requipping,
it essentially means
that you're grabbing stuff from
a different pocket of space.
Too bad, because
all "space" magic
is completely
ineffective against me.
[LUCY]
In that case, take this!
Open Gate of the Archer!
Celestial spirit magic?
Sorry, but that's
space based, too.
No way.
Oh. There's one teeny
detail I should mention.
Anyone who happens to break
the "Law of Space"
in my presence...
Wait, what's going on?
This is scary!
There's no reason to
get all fussy, ladies.
I'm sending you to
my chillout space!
Lucy! Erza!
[gasps]
Where'd they go?!
You better tell me what you
did with them, right now!
Like I said, I sent those
lovelies over to relax
in my chillout space, 'kay?
Those girls are both
A-plus honeys,
so they should be
somewhere nice.
But the two of you...
are F-minus losers.
Dumbasses that just need to die!
What the hell did we
ever do to you, man?!
[MARIN]
He's with you scumbags, right?
Mest!
[growls]
[MARIN] This piece of
crap also tried to use
space magic around me.
Know what I think
of that? F-minus!
This loser makes me
wanna puke my guts out!
[NATSU yells]
[MARIN]
You'll have a hard time
touching a space magic
master like me!
[NATSU gasps]
I'm like the sheriff of space!
What the--? How?
I didn't see him.
[MARIN] You should know better
than to mess with a guy like me.
Because your kind
will never win!
[GRAY]
We are in deep trouble.
[BRANDISH]
That's enough playtime, Marin.
[GRAY] Whoa! Her power
level is freaking insane!
Brandish, my lady!
Oh, you are an A-plus-plus-plus!
I'd appreciate it if you
stopped with the bootlicking.
[LUCY] Brandish Mu, one of
the elite Spriggan ,
has a level of magic
power we've never seen.
If the others are
as strong as her,
that must be why Master Makarov
was so frightened before.
Meanwhile, in the capital of
the Alvarez Empire, Vistarion,
the people celebrate
the emperor's return
after a year-long expedition.
What did he find on
that lengthy journey?
Next time: "Emperor Spriggan."
So begins the encounter
with the "ugly fairy"
that rules the great darkness.
