Fairy Tail: The Fourth Master - Volume 1 Chapter 65
Gray watched as Rogue went back inside the guild, he gritted his teeth and clenched his fist, then he glance at every tenrou group and said,
“I’m going to find Porlyusica. I’m sure that she has something that can help us increase our strength.”
After that, Gray began to walk towards the forest where Porlyusica is living.
Lucy hesitates for a moment before she followed after him, Wendy, Carla, Gajeel, and Lily also decided to follow after him.
Erza, Mira, and Laxus decided to stay behind. They already knew that the old lady the lives in the woods hates humans, they will probably be kicked out or be chased by a broom if they went there.
They just decided to head back to the guild.
The guild was pretty rowdy today, so much more than normal. Strangely enough, there is no fight going on inside.
Natsu and Makarov were drinking at the bar, talking about some random stuffs, when Natsu noticed the group of three entering the guild, he suddenly remember something.
“Oh right!” he exclaimed, gaining the attention of everyone in the guild, “I have forgotten about it.” Then, he took out with a picture of chibi-Gildarts doing a peace-sign, with a word ‘Call’ at the top and ‘Gildarts’ at the bottom.
“Cana.” he called out, as the card mage put the barrel of beer she was drinking from and glance at Natsu with a hazy eyes.
“Catch.” He threw the card towards Cana, who raised her hand and caught the card and then look at it.
“Gildarts left this morning, he asks me to give you this.”
Cana observed it for a few seconds before tearing it apart, “I don’t need it.” Natsu just gave a wry smile, already expecting her to do that.
“Oh, and Laxus.” The lightning mage looks at Natsu with a raised eyebrow, “Your vacation is over, you can now return and do some jobs.”
“Huh?”
Natsu did not say anything more and drank a large mug of beer in one go. Then, he looked around the guild, his eyes stopping to five people for a few seconds longer.
He thought for a moment and nodded, “That could work.” he whispered under his breath, but Makarov managed to hear him.
“What ‘could work’?”
Natsu pondered whether he should tell him, he then motioned for him to come closer.
Makarov leaned his head as Natsu whispered some words to him, whatever it is, caused Makarov’s eyes widen and sparkled.
Makarov nodded and patted his shoulders, “Nice, nice, your learning fast my boy.”
Natsu grinned and glance at the five person he picked, “Mira, Laxus, Kagura, Alex, Ariel, meet me in my office.”
Without saying any more words, Natsu walked upstairs and entered his office.
Those whose name was mentioned looked confused, but went to his office nevertheless.
….
Master’s Office.
Natsu was sitting in his chair, with his left cheek resting on his left fist, his legs were folded, with his right leg resting on top of his left leg.
The only thing that is missing is beautiful women on his side and he will definitely look like a Demon King.
Mira was in awe, as she stared at him with a massive blush on her face, but she quickly tried to hide it with her usual smile.
She gotta admit, if the previous Natsu who usually smiles is handsome, then the Natsu now, who looks like an evil mastermind behind the scenes, is pretty hot.
Especially now since his hair turned into crimson, with two bangs at the side of his face, if Mira didn’t know any better, then perhaps she wouldn’t be able to recognize him.
“Alright. The five of you will participate in the upcoming Grand Magic Games.”
Mira and Laxus already expected this because Ultear and Rogue already told them, but the other three were a bit startled.
“Huh? Aren’t the tenrou group supposed to represent us in this years games?” Ariel asks with her eyebrow raised.
Alex grinned, and when he was about to open his mouth to speak, he saw Kagura clutching handle of her sword, causing him to swallow his words and remained silent.
“What about the others Natsu-sama?” Kagura asks, she was getting confused, from what she knew, only the tenrou group was going to participate and not them.
“They will also participate.”
“Huh? Isn’t five the maximum number of participants in every team?”
His words caused them to feel confused. However, Ariel suddenly laughed, gaining the attention of Kagura and co.
“Hahaha~! As expected of you master! Hahaha~!”
Kagura glance at her for moment, confused as to why she is laughing, but then, she suddenly thought of something as she let out smirk.
“Hee~ so that’s what you’re planning. Such a wicked yet pretty good plan you thought off, Natsu-sama.”
Natsu noticed that the others were still confused so he decided to explain it to them.
“You guys will be participating, and so are Erza, Gajeel, Gray, Lucy, and Wendy. In other words, we’ll have two teams, Fairy Tail A and Fairy Tail B.”
Natsu glance at the look of realization on everyone’s face as he stretch open his palm, and a small black flame dance around on top of his palm.
“We’ll have a one-two win. The Sabertooth has been the number two ever since we became the champion, but now, we’ll push them down to number three.”
Then, Natsu smirked and clenched his fist, as the ball of flames dissipates, “We’ll crush the everyone, and two of our teams will be crowned as the strongest in Fiore.”
“Fairy Tail will dominate the competition this year.”
Natsu then leaned back on his chair and put both of his hands at the back of his head to support it.
“What do you think?” He asks with a smile on his face.
“Fufu~ a complete dominance is it? It makes me excited just thinking about it.” Mira smiled, though this time, her smile is completely different from her usual one.
“Heh~! I always wanted to show to everyone, that our guild is the strongest, let’s do it.” Laxus smirked as lightning arcs danced around his body.
“Kuku~ finally, after two years of not participating, everyone will now once again witness the might of the Dark Emperor of Chaos!” Alex declared as he used his right hand to cover his right eye and lift his head up.
Kagura suppressed her urge to pull out her sword and cut him down to pieces, as she keep chanting, “..just this once…just this once…”
“Well~ well~ I haven’t participated last year, so I guess I’ll go all out this time around.” Ariel smiles and glance at Natsu, “You want to see Fairy Tail dominate the games, then dominate we shall.”
Natsu grinned, ‘-also, we will get an additional 10 million for the second place, that’s 40 million in total.’ he thought.
‘Damn, I’m becoming more and more like gramps, is this a master thing? No I doubt it, there’s no way that the first is like us.’
