"To the Aisha I have once deeply loved, give up your flesh for my ideals!"
At some point, Gerald had already appeared above the great ship.
Aisha also appeared with two magic swords and charged directly up.
"Gerald, you damned bastard, lie down!"
"This power is more potent than Joseph's, it's definitely at the level of the Holy Ten!"
George's brow immediately furrowed, he guessed that Gerald would be strong, but he didn't expect him to be stronger than the last time he fought Joseph.
Last time they fought against Joseph, it took the entire guild's force of all mage groups to win, and it was thanks to Natsu consuming Ferro Fire that they consumed a significant amount of magic from the opponent.
"All out together!"
Aisha alone was definitely no match, so George directly spread his wings and charged towards them, followed closely by Natsu, Gray, and Jubius.
Simon and others were injured and unable to help, Lucy was then took out the Aquarius Key of the star spirit.
"Just with you guys?"
Jellal's face showed a hint of disdain, and he vanished into thin air with a flash of his body.
"Meteor!"
"It's not about disappearing, but about the speed."
George, with his extraordinary visual perception, saw that Gerald was surrounded by a layer of starlight, and his speed seemed to be accelerated like a meteor.
He first dodged Aisha's strongest sword technique of burning doves, and then kicked Natsu and Gray down with a single blow of one foot.
However, when attacking Jubia, he was dodged in time as her body hydrated and slipped away.
"Seven-star sword!"
Seven stars appeared behind Gerald, striking the hydrated Jubia with a thunderous force. Having dodged the physical attack, Jubia was directly hit by this magical strike and plunged into the sea.
"Hyper electromagnetic cannon!"
A coin, carrying a huge amount of electricity, shot towards Gerald's back.
Having seen Gerald's actions in an instant, George also struck.
"This attack won't hurt me."
Jellal turned and punched with a fist wrapped in starlight, breaking the electromagnetic cannon with a single blow. Then he transformed into a streak and charged towards George.
"Fourth-level electromagnetic cannon is still too weak against a level 10 mage."
If it were Mika Yuuka's triple-sound-speed electromagnetic cannon, I'm sure Jellal wouldn't dare to face it with just his fist.
"Transform!"
Jellal's speed was too fast, so it was difficult for other magic to hit him, except the electromagnetic cannon. Therefore, George's body directly appeared with a magic circle, transforming from a small golden kitten to a giant cat that is ten meters tall.
"Electric shock!"
Not satisfied with just that, he increased even further, applying a voltage of two billion volts to stimulate every cell in his body, allowing his physical power and speed to increase to another level.
"Get away!"
The massive claws, the size of millstones, lashed out with lightning, smashing towards charging Jellal.
The claws collided, and in the end, George's power was superior, sending Jellal flying out forcefully.
"Go!"
At the same time, he directed one after another of his sharp knife pieces towards Jellar, who was being chased away by George.
Facing a level 10 mage, there can be no holding back. Only by giving it their all do they stand a chance of winning.
"Open up, Aquarius Gate, Akuia!"
Below the sea, Lucy also inserted her golden Key of the Star Spirit into the ocean.
A blue magical array appeared, Akuia, the mermaid, holding a magic bottle, shouted with veins throbbing in anger:
"You brat! Interrupting my date again, all of you should die for my mother!"
With magic power that is no less fearsome than that of a general S-level mage, the water in the bottle rose up, forming a tsunami with its waters carrying massive amounts of seawater towards Jellal who had fallen.
"Hmm..."
The terrifying tsunami just not only swept away Jellal, but also carried the large ship with Natsu, Gray, Jubius, and others who had fallen into the water together.
It's really a large-scale, indiscriminate attack.
"Titan's Armor! Demon-Slaying Spear!"
Aisha, who had avoided Jellal's attack, put on the strongest Giant's Armor and aimed the Demon-Slaying Spear at Jellar, who was being swept away by the sea.
"It's interesting. I'll have some fun with you guys."
In the face of this multifaceted attack that would certainly be fatal to a general S-level mage, Jellal's face showed no signs of panic.
Seeing him cross his hands, a black magic circle immediately appeared.
"Fall into the endless darkness, Dark Paradise!"
A black hole appeared instantaneously as if it could devour everything, absorbing all the sharp knife pieces, sea water, and giant spears. Then it suddenly burst open with a tremendous explosion.
The powerful shockwave sent George, Aisha, Akuia, Lucy, and many others flying.
"Ice Formation·Large Platform!"
The white magical array lit up in the water, and a large ice platform suddenly appeared on the sea surface, catching everyone who had been knocked away. It was Grey who had recovered and used his ice magic to create this scene.
"Damn, that's strong."
George returned to his normal size and landed on the ice layer, unable to hold back his curse.
So many S-level mages attacking, but one magic from the opponent completely broke through, even more terrifying than Joseph's last time.
"I'll tell you a secret that will make you despair. The Joseph you all fought together and finally defeated in the guild is not even as good as my one thought body in the rankings of the Holy Ten."
Oh, I forgot to tell you guys that the reason why the Council used magi from a mage forest was because I split off a thought body named Zeref. You should have heard of this name.”
"Zeref!"
George's pupils constricted upon hearing this.
He certainly knew the name; it belonged to one of the most famous level 10 magicians, the youngest level 10, and also a member of the Council. Just that no photos of him had ever been leaked.
Who would have thought that it was just one thought body of Jellal's?
A thought body is a very profound magic that no top S-level mage can learn. It's difficult to master, but also practical.
It can split off an actual clone, which can have up to half of the original's power and can be retrieved at any time, regardless of distance.
The thought body, even with only half of its original strength, is ranked higher than Joseph. Just imagine how powerful Jellal must be now that he's at full strength.
"Don't forget that a person's strength will continue to progress!"
Taking advantage of Jellal's rhythm of being a villain who dies too soon, George used telepathy to inform Natsu to come over and began to pour the Fire of Ferro into his mouth.
After the Ghost War, everyone's strength has grown, especially Natsu, as he seems to have unlocked some special power due to the extreme feeding of the Fire of Ferro, greatly strengthening his ability to withstand the flames.
"Oh, progress? I'll show you the difference!"
Standing on the floating celestial magic array, Jellal laughed heartily and wildly, his magical power went haywire, distorting the surrounding air.
"True Celestial Magic-Stellar Collapse!"
A huge magical array rose above his head, and a massive meteor fell from the sky, covered in endless flames, towards everyone below.
The meteor crashing down could easily turn an entire city into ashes with a single strike.
