Natsu then grabbed joes' arm and lunched his fire grip attack on joe and blasted him back a few feet to gain some breathing room. After the smoke cleared both Joe and Natsu stared at each other neither moving an inch just silence. Then out of nowhere both came fist to fist making connection one of white and one of dark you could see as a lightness in the Darkness was pushing against one another neither one wanted to give, Natsu began to keep pushing hard as he could against Joe, and Joe decide to push harder as well and the white and dark from their fists where getting bigger and bigger then finally exploded and sent both of them flying backwards as soon as they both recovered they shoot Towards each other in split second connecting their fists once more creating a /spanspan style="font-size: 16px;"shock wave/span/strongspan style="font-size: 12pt;"strong throughout the area making the tress bend to their strength and the ground giving out from the tremendous power from above it. Natsu was gritting his teeth again in the power struggle while looking into Joe's eyes and all he could see was a man who wasn't blood thirsty he was smiling ear to ear with excitement. Within an instance they began to throw fist after fist and kick after kick each one zipping by the other head and body. Natsu decided to go full out and picked up his pace throwing a right hook that was dodged and followed it up a roundhouse kick which barley missed Joe's chin, Nastu then followed his roundhouse with a kick straight up when he turned fully around Joe grabbed Natsu's foot and threw it downwards forcing Natsu's body to move towards him. Joe's throws an uppercut straight for Natsu's jaw, but while in midair Natsu spun his body to avoid the hit sadly joe anticipated the dodge and grabbed Natsu's Shirt and spawn him around and throwing him as hard as he can to the ground sending him a few feet away./strongem "I'm getting tired of this you better get ready because after this I'll annihilate everyone.''/em strongJoe began to form a black sphere in his palm, he then began to raise his gloved right hand up to the sky, the black sphere slowly getting bigger and bigger Until it looked like the moon was in his hands. Now the whole area looked as if it was surrounded in darkness from the looming shadow of the attack. Nastu got off the ground and looked and Joe and realized right now he must give everything he has right now./strong/span/span/p

The attacks were at a stalemate until joes sphere started moving forward a little by little but before it could move any further Natsus stream of fire then gained electric sparks around it and his attack got bigger gaining the ground that he lost and causing the attacks to explode sending a shock wave blowing trees apart in the area and destroying the living grass that was once there. After the dust had settled there stood joe still standing not a scratch on him as for Natsu he stood there gasping his whole body gassed as he stared at joe. All he could think is how is his brother still standing/strong/span/p

Natsu slowly raised his head and looked into Joe's eyes onyx looking into black, as joe stared in his eyes he seen a flicker of white in Natsu's eyes and before he knew it he was hunched over spitting out some blood flaying back into some trees, joe grabbed his stomach as from the pain he was feeling, if he didn't know any better it felt like a train ran through him. As he slowly got up, he looked over to Natsu and grinned ear to ear. "Now that's what I'm talking about." In front of him was Natsu covered in pure white fire from head to toe. Joes arm started to shake, but not in fear. He was excited his body felt like it was goanna explode if he didn't do anything. Natsu just looked at his fist and the rest of his body coming to realization that this is the power that Joe was talking about. He felt so strong and there was feeling he never had until now, and that was to destroy joe./strong/span/p

Joe then rose his power even higher as well with the grass and the trees around him started decaying. Then their power disappeared and in a flash both of them connected their fist and the ground beneath them broke and created a crater the shockwave that came of it blew some trees out from the ground afterwards fist started flaying at each other each one barley passing the other, they then started throwing kicks in as well making it even harder to dodge forcing the other to start blocking each blow, every block sounding like a plank smacking a bare stomach over an over both fighter not giving an inch with a smile plastered on both their faces just waiting for the other to mess style="mso-spacerun: yes;" /spanAs the two continued to fight their companions were just staring at them confused on what's happening span style="mso-spacerun: yes;" /spanErza, Lucy, and Gray were captivated not by the pure power they both have shown but by their recklessness and it scared them deeply gray was the first to wake up from his shock/strong/span/p

Erza had so Many questions wondering why Natsu and Joe were acting like this and how jellal knows what's going on and what he meant by being to late. But she put her puzzling mind to the side and looked and gray and Lucy to see if they were alright with the plan. The two nodded for confirmation and Erza nodded back standing up and looking jellal in the eyes and nodded as well. The 4 then ran deeper in the woods to gain ground and when they felt they were at a safe distance they climbed the tree to see the rest of the fight./strong/span/p

Joe tried a kick only for it to be grabbed by Natsu who then pulled him in and released a fire dragons iron fist right on joe's jaw sending him bouncing of the ground, Natsu then spun in a circle and threw joe and jump above him and then lit his left hand on fire first then his right and swung them in a circular motion and swung them down on joe looking like wings creating a huge explosion of fire burning everything in a medium radius slightly burning the tips of trees that were lucky to stay out of the blast radius. Natsu was panting heavy after that barrage of attacks watching as the dust parted. He then grew a small smirk as he seen joe's figure rise from the ground with a smile plastered from ear to ear with blood dripping down his head to the side of his face./strong em"you know too bad I don't know how to use this ice Magic, or this would be a different story.

The spectators were amazed with what was happening not knowing what to do. Then all off a sudden they felt a sense of fear their bodies telling them to flee but they wouldn't move, paralyzed by fear somehow. And once again in a flash jellal threw some hand signs and summoned a sphere around the four this caused gray to snap out of it and put and ice sphere around jellal for extra protection, Erza then transformed into her adamite armor and summoned her shield and stood In front of the two with Lucy running behind them. All four knowing it was too late to rune away. Then suddenly, the attacks from the two brothers exploded obliterating everything around them in a five-mile radius not a single tree was standing not a piece of grass was alive all that stood there was the brothers panting./strong "well looks like you survived this round. I guess 25 percent of my power isn't enough ha... ha..." strongand like that joe passed out on the ground Natsu not looking any better fell to his knees the white flames around him disappearing as he looked at joe's down figure wondering why he acted this way before himself falling into slumber from exhaustion as well. When Lucy opened her eyes she was scared shitless at what she was seeing not only was the area around here lifeless but jellal was on the ground panting like a dog gray was on the verge of passing out and Erza's shield slowly disappeared having her drop to her knees, which gave the other three time to look at their surroundings./strong/span/p
