[HAPPY yelping]
This is freaking me out.
The Cube's reacting
to Face's rising power.
Damn it.
[FRANMALTH]
If you still want to att*ck me,
you'd better do it soon.
This continent will be free
of magic in three minutes!
We're down to three minutes?
Ya gotta b*at him
up quick, Natsu!
[FRANMALTH] How much is a
wizard worth without his magic?
I'd say nothing!
So this is how a
true demon fights.
[LISANNA] They look pretty
evenly matched from this angle.
[LISANNA yelps]
w*r isn't a
spectator sport, girlie.
[LUMMY laughing]
Have I met you before?
Nope, but between
that pretty face
and those ridiculous cat
ears, I hate you already.
[LISANNA]
Uh.
The beginning of the end.
Man shall rule
this world no more.
Face has been unleashed!
[laughing]
[growls]
[NATSU]
Huh?
[FRANMALTH laughing]
[NATSU] Oh yeah?
I've still got my magic.
[FRANMALTH]
Huh?
So do I.
What did I tell you?
I knew Carla could
figure it out!
That shaking. It stopped.
[KEYES]
Hmm.
[KYOKA] The era of magic you
once knew has come to an end!
And now, humanity is doomed!
Requip!
My magic power's
as strong as ever!
[KYOKA]
Impossible!
Everything's calmed down.
[BOTH gasp]
What the--? How could
this've happened?
[FRANMALTH crying]
[NATSU] It's simple, your
little plan didn't work.
It's horrible. We've failed.
I shudder to think how far
this blunder set us back.
It pains me.
Now let our friend go!
It's mind boggling,
this failure.
What is the cost?
What is the cost?
One hundred thousand
of your souls!
I'll start by
collecting your souls,
and those of all
your stupid friends,
and I won't stop until every
living thing in Earthland
has been made into
an empty shell!
[FRANMALTH laughing]
[NATSU]
How can I stop this freak?
We gotta do something, quick!
But what can we do?
He absorbed everything
we've thrown at him.
He even ate up your spirits.
Don't forget that I have all
of Hades' spells at my disposal.
A magic circle!
This is bad!
[FRANMALTH]
Your fate has been sealed!
Amaterasu Formula !
[KYOKA]
How can she still use magic?
Face should've wiped
it out of existence!
[KYOKA grunts]
Don't run, you coward!
[KYOKA]
I'm leaving this to you!
Exterminate the fairies!
[MINERVA (NEO)]
That's what I was born to do.
[ERZA gasps]
[MINERVA (NEO)]
I told you we'd meet again Erza.
I've been waiting for this day.
Minerva?
You can call me Neo-Minerva.
You've finally succumbed
to the darkness.
On the contrary, I've been
reborn by the darkness,
washed clean of my humanity.
Does that mean you've
become a demon?
[KYOKA] I was certain our plan
to use Face was foolproof.
Now we've no other choice.
We'll have to revive
Master E.N.D. by force.
[FRANMALTH laughing]
No way. I can't quit.
[LUCY grunts]
[groans]
Natsu.
[FRANMALTH]
Bang!
Does this pain bring
back old memories
of your dance with Hades?
Bang! Bang!
[grunting]
Hey, guys. Stay down.
I've got this!
Oh, I can't wait to discover
just how much wasting all
your strength will cost you!
And your friends!
Bang!
Natsu!
Hades had a wealth of spells!
And now so do I!
[FRANMALTH yells]
Let her go right now!
Bang! Bang! Bang!
[grunting]
Bang!
[NATSU yelps]
Don't think I forgot that
you owe me, kitty cat!
Bang!
[yelps]
I dunno know how much
more of this we can take.
[FRANMALTH]
Now that you're down,
it's time for me
to swallow your souls!
And your spells
will be mine as well!
No, please!
[FRANMALTH]
Connection!
[LUCY screaming]
[FRANMALTH]
You too, kitty!
[screaming]
Oh no! We're doomed!
Goodbye, guys!
He's draining all of my power!
You three will make
wonderful additions
to my vast collection of souls!
Just give up! It's over now!
--[FRANMALTH laughing]
--[GROUP screaming]
I'm never giving up!
[FRANMALTH]
Wha?
[NATSU] You ain't takin'
anything from me!
And you ain't takin'
anything from my friends!
I won't let you!
All your struggling
is pointless!
Guys! Please! You both
gotta stay strong!
We're gonna hold
on to our souls!
You hear me?
We're never lettin' go!
Deny it all you want,
but I'll still be getting
your souls in my belly!
[NATSU]
I'm keepin' mine!
[NATSU]
This isn't just for me.
It's for him. I owe
that much to Igneel.
I'm gonna see him
again someday!
That's ridiculous!
[BOTH groaning]
[NATSU]
You gotta think about
what're the most important
things in your life.
About what you'll never give up!
It's the only way
to hang on to your soul!
[HAPPY]
The most important things to me.
Carla and yummy fishies.
Carla and yummy fishies.
Carla, yummy fishies.
How much more time
will you waste
on this silly
sentimental blathering?
[LUCY] There's nothing more
important in this world
than my friends. My guild.
[LUCY]
And my Celestial Spirits.
I'll see you again, Igneel.
I swear! One day!
Carla, yummy fishies.
Carla and yummy fishies.
Carla and yummy fishies.
Carla and yummy fishies!
[LUCY] This monster
took Taurus and Aries.
I have to get them back home.
I won't give up until
I know they're safe.
[LUCY]
I owe it to them!
I have to protect
them no matter what!
Taurus. I close your gate!
Huh? Hey! What in
the hell is going on?!
No! It can't be!
[LUCY gasps]
[screaming]
I'm being torn apart!
This can't be happening to me!
No way.
Is Taurus actually taking
him to the Celestial World?
Curse you! Curse you all!
Taurus! Get out!
What happened?
It's working!
[gasps]
Taurus. I close your gate!
Huh? Hey! What in
the hell is going on?!
No! It can't be!
[LUCY gasps]
[screaming]
I'm being torn apart!
This can't be happening to me!
No way.
Is Taurus actually taking him
to the Celestial World?
Curse you! Curse you all!
Taurus! Get out!
What happened?
It's working!
Aries, I'm closing
your gate too!
Aries, get out now!
I'm so incredibly
sorry, Miss Lucy.
Now close Natsu's gate!
[FRANMALTH gasping]
[HAPPY]
Oh.
[NATSU]
Huh?
[FRANMALTH]
He's a Celestial Spirit, too?
[LUCY]
Heh.
Awesome fake out.
What a shame! Why did
I fall for that trick?
It's no use! Your magic won't
hurt me. You're finished!
[screaming]
[LUCY gasps]
[HAPPY]
Ahh.
[yelling]
[FRANMALTH groaning]
I suppose he can't
absorb that, huh?
Yeah, it's just a rock.
No soul in it.
[NATSU chuckles]
No! Not another one!
[NATSU yells]
[FRANMALTH groaning]
[NATSU yelling]
Please! Stop it!
It really hurts!
[NATSU yells]
[yelling]
[groaning]
Nice job.
[LUCY gasps]
What? Were all those
rocks still not enough?
[NATSU] I think those must be
the souls that were inside him.
[HAPPY]
Aye.
Hey, Lucy. When we were
thinking about important things,
what kinda stuff
were you focusing on?
I was thinking about
you guys, actually.
My guild mates and spirits.
Oh, yeah. That totally
sounds like you.
I could hear you over there.
You kept on chanting,
"Carla and yummy fishies,
Carla and yummy fishies."
[HAPPY chuckles nervously]
[VOICE]
It's not over yet.
[grunts]
[HADES] Using Face is not
the ultimate goal of Tartaros.
Makarov must unleash the light.
Now, before it's too late.
Okay... What was that?
I think it was
Master Hades' ghost.
Pretty sure it was his
soul being released.
[LUCY]
Unleash the light?
What does that even mean?
[HAPPY] We need to tell
Master. He'll understand.
[LUCY]
Well, the good news is
Wendy and Carla
stopped the Face.
We still don't know
where Mira is.
All I know is I've still
got some work to do,
and that's kickin'
demons' butts!
Okay. I'll go and tell
Master what's up.
Please be careful!
You too!
[FRANMALTH chuckles]
[FRANMALTH]
What a bunch of idiots.
They still don't understand that
they will never win against us.
We possess the power
of immortality.
Our lab is the most
valuable tool in the world,
and as long as we have that,
we can keep coming back.
Speaking of,
I suppose there's a vat with
my name on it waiting for me.
[FRANMALTH chuckles]
[yelling]
You okay, Mira?
I think you should be
more worried about yourself.
[LUMMY laughing]
Get off me, you
annoying little pest!
[SEILAH] What are you?
Explain yourself!
No mere human could be
immune to my Macro power!
Macro?
That must be the
name of the magic
that she used to control Elfman!
She uses curses, dummy!
Why would it work
on your brother,
but have no effect on you?
Macro is rather unique.
I can weave my victim's tales
for as long as I desire.
My previous servants are
available to me at all times,
to do whatever I ask of them.
[MIRAJANE]
No.
[SEILAH]
If it pleases me,
I could have him slit
his own throat, right now.
Don't you dare!
That runt!
Is that Ezel?
Hurry up! I don't wanna
wait around all day!
Revive me, so I can go gobble up
that squirt and her
smarty pants cat!
What's going on?
[EZEL]
Come on!
Get me back to normal
so I can settle the score.
First, I'm gonna take
that little windbag
and break her into
bite-sized pieces!
Then I'm gonna turn that little
kitty of hers into a hat!
[MIRAJANE] He's talking
about Wendy and Carla!
Did the two of them
actually b*at this guy?
But how? If they b*at him,
then how did he end up in here?
[EZEL]
Don't leave me hangin', Lummy!
[LUMMY yelps]
Hey, Seilah!
[SEILAH] I'll get to you as soon
as I deal with my own pests.
It won't be long.
Revive me right now and
you and I can double team 'em!
Revive him?
Oh, FYI, we're in our very own
respawn HQ, Hell's Core.
Badass name, huh?
We're like the
Underworld King's faves.
So he gave us the power
to come back to life.
Pretty handy whenever things get
a little too rough out there.
The only guild with immortality.
There's no way. That's nuts.
I don't believe
any of that stuff.
I'm afraid your mouth has
outpaced your brain. As usual.
Whoops, my bad!
I appreciate the info.
[MIRAJANE] It seems like
the first thing I should do
is start tearing up this room!
And what makes you
think you could do that?
Just watch me!
[gasps]
[FRANMALTH]
Ta-dah!
Hey, Lummy, I could use a little
pick me up right about now!
[yelps]
OMG! That cow's
wrecking my lab!
Go, Mira! Tear it up!
Oh please, noooo!
What? But how?
That's impossible!
Oh, is it, now? 'Cause
it seems possible to me!
I used my take over magic.
It let me control your
little tentacle demons.
This human can absorb demons?
That must be the problem.
Why I can't use my
Macro curse on her.
Frustrating isn't it?
I was hoping I'd be able
to absorb you too.
But for some reason,
it's just not happening.
It's kinda weird how you
and I seem to be having
the exact same problem.
No way.
Their powers just
cancel each other out.
So!
The winner will be decided by a
good old fashioned fist fight!
Some hand-to-hand
combat, huh?
Sounds like fun to me!
Sitri! Good idea, sis!
Use your ultimate demon form!
You've gotta be kidding me.
"Ultimate demon form" my butt!
You do realize who you're
dealing with, right?
Seilah here is the real deal.
A demon straight from the books
of our dark lord Zeref himself!
Obey my order.
That won't work.
[SEILAH]
Release my limiter!
She's controlling herself?
[BOTH gasp]
[BOTH screaming]
Careful. Please, Mira.
Oh no.
[laughing]
What did I tell ya?
Your sister never had a chance
when she decided to go up
against a legit demon.
Yeah, well, you just haven't
seen what Mira can do yet.
[LUMMY laughing]
Oh, give me a freaking break!
You should've just d*ed
before things got ugly.
And it is gonna get real ugly.
You won't believe the things
Tartaros is capable of.
It's almost game over.
For Fairy Tail, and every
other grody human out there.
We need to move
kinda slow, okay.
The ground is
pretty uneven here.
All right. Thank you.
Love. It's in the air!
[MELDY]
Would you knock it off?
So, what are we doing?
Don't ask me.
[ANGEL]
Are they just ignoring us?
[JELLAL]
Meldy, is there something wrong?
[MELDY]
No.
My feet hurt from
all this walking,
but I just need
to rest a minute.
[JELLAL] Your footsteps
were getting heavy.
[HOTEYE]
How glorious.
Love keeps us in tune
with others, yes?
Don't read more into it.
[RACER sighs]
Hey, guys, are you seriously
gonna follow these losers?
I'm sure as hell not.
It is a lot to take in.
Huh. Could we really k*ll Zeref?
Well, I think we should
start with k*lling Jellal.
I'm getting pretty sick
of hearing you complain.
What's your deal?
You don't actually
trust this scumbag
after all he's put
us through, do ya?
I dunno. Jury's still out.
The voices. They're
getting louder.
Say what?
I wouldn't even call 'em voices,
'cause they're not sayin'
anything I can understand.
It's just screams.
That's kinda creepy.
Well, what else?
Do you know what they're
all screaming about?
Got no idea, but I bet
if we stick with him,
we could find out about
all kinds of things.
Whatever this is, I just
gotta hear it for myself.
[LUCY] The fighting between
Fairy Tail and Tartaros
rages on.
Meanwhile, the
Oración Seis proves
they can keep a grudge
going for a long time.
But, as they travel next to
the man they can't forgive,
they run into a survivor
from Grimoire Heart.
You remember Rustyrose?
We all thought he'd d*ed
back on Tenrou Island,
but here he is again.
And he's got something
major to share with them.
Next Time: "Tartaros Chapter
Underworld King."
The underworld still has a lot
of surprises in store for us.
