NOTE: My Christmas gift to you all is another chapter.
In regard to the FT cast fighting Cumber, they're strong enough to not get killed by him not really trying. Cumber is a different breed, and you'll see in this chapter.
Gajeel, Levy, Juvia, Lily, and the rest will eventually appear. I'm keeping the cast small enough for my sake.
Enjoy and Review!
Chapter 3: Dragon King vs Evil Saiyan
PLANET: PRISON PLANET
AREA: "SLUMS"
"GAAAA!" Kogu screamed as he was blasted down into the ruined streets. The pirate swordsman struggled as he stood back up to his feet. A heated glare fixated on his features as Trunks landed a few feet away.
The Super Saiyan raised his blade up. "I told you before that I don't have time for this. I'm giving you one last chance to give up."
Kogu hissed with hatred. "I'll give up when you're rotting in hell!" He powered up, his skin turning bright green like Bojack's. "DIE!" The pirate swordsman rushed Trunks in a blitz of savage energy.
Trunks increased his power and clashed blades with Kogu, the two struggled for only a moment before the Saiyan's strength proved to be greater. Kogu's blade shattered like glass against Trunks' might, causing a gasp to escape the pirate's throat. The Saiyan's blade landed a diagonal slash through his torso.
Purple blood hissed through his skin, forcing the pirate to stagger backwards. "D-damn… you!" Blind in fury he attempted another rush only for Trunks' fist to ram its way through into his chest.
"This time stay dead!" Trunks yelled before unleashing a blast through the rest of Kogu's body. Life left the pirate's eyes as his body dropped to the ground. Trunks wiped the blood off of his blade and hands, turning his senses to the rest of the battlefield. He felt the Dragon Slayer was holding his own against his opponent, then he felt Cooler's power radiating loudly. "What the…? How did he get that strong!? It's almost like Dad's and Goku!" Trunks took off to see Cooler's battle for himself.
Natsu bashed Bido into another building with a hammer strike, the Dragon Slayer propelled himself downwards with flames blasting through his feet. When he landed in the building, Bido was waiting for him and swung his arm into Natsu's ribs, redirecting Natsu into a wall.
Bido raised both his hands, unleashing a torrent of KI blasts at the direction Natsu was thrown into. Each blast destroyed the gas tanks inside the building, engulfing the section in a burning sea of flames and explosions. Once he was done, Bido laughed happily at his assured victory over the Dragon Slayer.
That was until the surrounding fire began to converge onto a single point as if they were being sucked in by an unknown force. Bido's eyes widened once he saw Natsu standing unharmed, sucking in all of the city's fire. The Dragon Slayer burped loudly, rubbing his mouth. "Thanks, now I've got a fire in my belly." Natsu grinned devilishly. An aura of fire sparked around his body.
"It won't be enough, boy!" Bido roared, charging at Natsu.
Natsu's face shifted into a nasty scowl. "I've had enough of your face, pal! I'm ending this! Fire Dragon: Crushing Fang!" Natsu swiped his hand upwards, slashing Bido with an explosion of fire. The pirate was knocked upwards into the air, open for Natsu to propel himself after him. Two flames appeared in the Dragon Slayer's hands. "A flame in my left and a flame in my right, bring them both together for a Fire Dragon: BRILLIANT FLAME!" Natsu unleashed an overwhelmingly powerful explosion. Bido screamed as the flames burned his skin, the powerful fireball sent the pirate crashing back down to the ground in a loud explosion.
Natsu landed on his feet, chuckling as he observed his work. Bido was burnt to a crisp, defeated underneath some rubble. "How's that for a weakling!" Natsu huffed. At that moment another loud explosion rang in his ears. Looking over Natsu saw that another battle was still taking place. "Right, that Bojuice guy!" Natsu sped off to the explosions.
Cooler casually walked through every single KI blast that Bojack threw at him, not a single attack breaking past his aura. He swatted another one away, blitzing Bojack, and implanting his fist directly into the pirate's sternum. Bojack gasped for air, grabbing onto Cooler's arms for support. "Y-you…bastard." He coughed out blood.
Cooler's predator-like eyes gazed at him. "I should thank you."
"F-for w-what!?"
"For bringing me one step closer to my goal." Cooler raised up the Dragon Ball he stole from the pirate.
Bojack's eyes widened. "T-the Dragon Ball!? When did you-" He was cut off when Cooler's tail wrapped itself around his neck, choking him. The pirate clawed against the golden appendage that kept getting tighter and tighter by the second.
"That." Cooler placed his finger against Bojack's heart. "Is none of your concern." Without wasting a second a purple beam pierced through Bojack's heart, his limp body was tossed into the air by the tail and eradicated by a KI blast. Cooler held the Dragon Ball in his hands and turned back to base as his companions rejoined the battle.
"Hey! The hell happened to that Bojuice guy!?" Natsu yelled.
"Again, it's Bojack." Trunks landed next to him, turning back to base.
"Really? Why didn't you say so?"
"I did…" Trunks sighed.
Cooler turned to his companions. "If the two of you are done bickering, then let's get a move on. There are more Dragon Balls that need to be collected and I will not lose my chance because of you."
"And who the hell are you to give me orders!?" Natsu yelled.
"The one who actually knows about this Prison Planet and how to get off. So, unless you want to be trapped here, boy, I suggest you listen to me." Cooler hissed back.
Trunks stepped up with Natsu. "Look, I want to get off this planet too but we're not getting anywhere by just arguing. If you want my help, then you better explain what's going on."
"We don't have time for that! The more time we waste, then the-" Cooler's eyes widened. He turned his attention away from the two. "The hell!? How did I not feel that before!?"
Trunks was confused. "What are you-" That's when the power source invaded his senses as well. "T-that power!? Not only that, but I can sense Dad, Goku, and Mai over there as well! And some strange ones are with them!"
Natsu was the only one left out of the loop. "What do you mean!? What's going on!?"
Trunks answered his question. "There's a huge power source coming from that direction! Even from here it's so toxic! As if it could swallow the whole planet in poison!"
Cooler's thoughts raced at what could be causing it, but even worse were the implications that it could mean. "And where there are powerful beings, a Dragon Ball isn't far away." He turned to two. "You two! We're heading in that direction!" Cooler didn't wait for their response, blasting off towards the powerful KI.
Trunks turned to Natsu. "Can you fly, Natsu?"
"Not without Happy."
The Saiyan didn't know who that was but didn't bother asking. He grabbed Natsu and took off into the skies to follow Cooler.
PLANET: PRISON PLANET
AREA: "GREEN"
Wendy poured all of her focus onto healing the Saiyans and Erza, sweat pouring down her brow. The young Dragon Slayer stared confusingly at how slow her magic was working. While Vegeta was almost done, Goku and Erza were strangely taking a lot of her energy. "Why is it taking so long? Even with me having to split my attention between the three of them, Vegeta's body is healing perfectly fine." Wendy furrowed her brows. "Maybe it was that evil Ki? It must've done something to their bodies." Wendy stretched out her senses to feel both Goku and Erza's energy signatures. Eventually she found the sensation of poisonous black invading their bodies. "There! I'll just need some time to focus on getting rid of it then-"
BOOM!
"KYA!" Lucy crashed down across from them; wounds littered all over her body as the Celestial Spirit mage struggled to get off the ground. Lucy's Star Dress disappeared, reverting her back to her regular attire.
"LUCY!" Gray and Loke cried out after she had gotten hit. The Celestial Spirit attempted to run to his user, but an arm of evil KI grabbed Loke. "Gah!" He tried to break free from it, but the KI was too strong for him. The Lion Spirit gasped as the black KI started to invade his body, poisoning him.
"Ice-Make: Battle Axe!" Gray created an axe, using it to slice through the KI, freeing his friend from its grasp. "Loke! You okay!?" He knelt down to help the spirit up.
Loke struggled to stand even with Gray's help. "N-not too sure. That guy's energy is something else. It's not magic, but it's definitely not good for me or for any of the other spirits to get close to. Tell Lucy I'm sorry, but I need to get back to the Spirit World before this crap finishes infecting me."
"Don't worry, we'll handle it from here." Gray nodded his head as Loke disappeared in a flash of light. Turning around he saw that Cumber hadn't moved at all as if the Saiyan was bored with the fight. Gray gritted his teeth, pissed at being looked down on. "C'mon, big guy! I bet you're pretty hot in that straight jacket! Allow me to help you cool off! Ice-Make: Ice Geyser!" Slamming his hands into the ground, the earth freezes beneath Cumber's feet. A massive tower of ice spikes explodes underneath the Saiyan.
However, Cumber simply forced his KI to block each of the spikes, destroying them to pieces. The KI arms extended forward at lightning speed towards the ice mage, forcing Gray to put up his defenses. "Ice-Make: Wall!" A giant wall of ice blocked the KI from reaching him, unfortunately it was a momentary reprieve as the arms were too strong for the wall to hold up. "Dammit! Ice-Make: Rampart!" He acted quickly, summoning an even stronger wall of defense. It managed to hold out longer, but even then, Cumber's KI was too much for Gray's ice to keep back. The KI smashed its way through the wall and into Gray, bashing the ice mage across the field.
"GRAY!" Happy screamed as he watched Natsu's rival fall. He looked back at Cumber to see that the Evil Saiyan was approaching them. "Ah! He's coming!"
Vegeta cursed. "Dammit!" He powered back up to Blue, preparing to go back into battle. "I thought they'd last a little longer than that!" He looked down at Wendy. "How is Kakarot!?"
Wendy cursed under her breath. "That evil Ki must've messed with their bodies. It's taking even longer than it should to heal them, but I'm working on getting rid of it now!"
Vegeta clicked his tongue. "Whatever, just get it done!"
Carla glared at him. "No need to be rude! Wendy's doing her best!"
"Her best won't matter if this bastard ends up killing us all!" Vegeta yelled back.
Wendy turned to him. "You're not at 100% either! Sorry, but I don't know how long you'll last against him."
Vegeta glanced at her before looking back at Cumber. "As if being tired has ever stopped me from fighting. My pride doesn't allow me to make excuses like that." Vegeta declared. He was about to engage Cumber until he abruptly stopped, confusing everyone else.
"Vegeta?" Mai asked.
Vegeta smirked slightly. "It's about damn time."
"What are you-" Wendy stopped talking as a familiar scent entered her nose. The young Dragon Slayer gasped, smiling widely in excitement. "That scent! Guys it's-"
"FIRE DRAGON KING'S DESTRUCTION FIST!" A familiar roar entered the Fairy's ears. Looking up they saw a bright red comet crash down on Cumber. A massive explosion of fire decimated the ground around everyone, forcing Vegeta to put up a barrier to protect everyone else from the immense heat. The red flames sizzled and cracked as they died out, leaving mostly smoke left. When it vanished, the group saw that the grass had been incinerated by the large amounts of fire.
"My word… what could've done this!?" Mai gaped.
Happy squealed in delight. "Natsu! That was Natsu!"
"Only Natsu could cause destruction like this." Carla sighed, though she was grateful he had appeared.
"He's not the only one." Vegeta said, turning to Mai. The future woman was confused until she felt a masculine hand touch her shoulder, turning around she saw a familiar head of blue hair and face.
"Trunks!?" Mai shouted, relieved that he was alright.
"It's good to see you, Mai. You too, father." Trunks smiled at them both. Vegeta grunted, but that was 'Vegeta talk' meaning he was happy to see his son.
Cooler stood in the back, not wanting to be anywhere near the little reunion. His attention was primarily on Cumber and Natsu.
Trunks looked over and saw Wendy tending to Goku and Erza. "What the!? What happened to Goku!? And who are the rest of you!?"
Carla floated over to him. "We're mages of Fairy Tail."
"Fairy Tail? Then, you guys must be Natsu's friends." Trunks realized.
"You know Natsu?" Wendy asked.
"Yeah, we met each other when I first arrived here. Now we're working together to get off this Prison Planet. Seems that you guys were brought here by Fu too, then." Trunks said. "Not only that, but that guy over there… his KI is unbelievable."
"He's an Evil Saiyan." Vegeta revealed to him.
"Evil Saiyan?"
"I don't understand the point of it myself, but he's the reason Kakarot is hurt, along with their other friend." Vegeta explained. "Now enough with the chatter! Trunks, until Kakarot is back on his feet we're fighting him!"
"Got it!" Trunks exclaimed, turning Super Saiyan.
They turned their attention back to the impact, where the last of the dust settled. Natsu was seen, his fist pushed against Cumber's KI, the Evil Saiyan was unharmed by the violent attack.
"What!?" Natsu exclaimed, jumping back.
"Natsu!" He turned around to see Happy flying into his face.
"Happy!? What are you doing here!?" Natsu yelled, shocked.
"We were brought here to help save you! But we were tricked, and this evil sandwich guy showed up and attacked us!" Happy explained. Natsu allowed his partner's words to sink in, looking over to the group in the back. Besides Trunks, that blue guy, Wendy, and the Exceeds everyone else was hurt. Erza, some weird hair guy, Gray, and Lucy were all unconscious covered in wounds. Natsu's face grew furious at the sight before him, he turned back to Cumber, flames igniting around him.
"Happy, get back!" The Exceed listened. "I'm going to kick this guy's ass! No one hurts my friends and gets away with it! I'm all fired up now!" Natsu roared. The Dragon Slayer dashed forward to attack Cumber. "Fire Dragon: Iron Fist!" His attack didn't make a dent against the evil Ki. It tried to swipe at him, but the mage backflipped away.
"If that didn't work, then I'll just turn up the heat! Fire Dragon King Mode!" The flames around his body grew hotter and darker to emphasize his change in power. "Fire Dragon King: Brilliant Flame!" A monstrous sized ball of flame descended down on Cumber, clashing against the evil KI. Natsu gasped as his attack was bashed back towards him, blasting him away from Cumber. Before he could hit the ground, Trunks grabbed him by his jacket. "Trunks!"
"Don't fight him on your own! This guy's dangerous!" Trunks warned him.
"Yeah, but he hurt my friends! No way is he getting away with it!"
Vegeta powered past the two to attack Cumber, launching several KI blasts at the Evil Saiyan. Each one was bashed away before it could get near him. The Prince used it as a distraction to vanish and appear above the Saiyan to deliver a strong hammer strike, but Cumber simply forced a blast of Evil KI to push the Prince away.
Trunks was up next swinging his sword against the KI arms that tried to bash his skull in. Enhanced by his own KI, the blade swiftly sliced the arms apart. The half-Saiyan pushed forward to attack Cumber directly, but the arms reformed quickly slamming themselves against the future warrior harshly.
Natsu came up from behind Trunks, his fist burning with righteous fury. "Fire Dragon King's Destruction Fist!" Natsu tried again with the attack from before. Using the opening Trunks gave him to push past the KI that was protecting Cumber. "Gotcha-what!?" Natsu exclaimed once his flames cleared up. Cumber was nowhere to be seen, having disappeared from the spot he attacked. "Where the hell did, he go!?"
"Above you, you imbecile!" Vegeta shouted, flying towards the sky. Natsu looked up to see Cumber floating peacefully in the air, evil Ki swirling around him. Trunks got back to his feet, flying into the air as well.
"Ah, dammit! Happy!" Natsu called for his partner.
"Aye sir!" Happy grabbed Natsu and took them both airborne.
Wendy watched the fight briefly before turning back to her patients as Mai carried Lucy and Gray over to her. "I wish I could help them with the fight."
"You're doing all you can to help everyone heal, Wendy. I'm sure those three can handle it." Carla reassured her.
"She's right, until everyone else is back up, this is all we can do." Mai added.
"Ngrh…"
The women and Exceed flinched at the voice, looking down they saw Goku slowly waking back up. He slowly sat up, wincing slightly. "What's going on?"
"Goku!" Mai exclaimed, relieved.
"Mai? What happened?" He asked.
"You don't remember? That Cumber monster infected you and Erza with that KI of his." Carla explained.
"I see." Goku responded as he stood back up, shocking Wendy.
"W-wait! You're not fully healed yet!" Wendy exclaimed.
"It's fine, it'd be pretty boring sitting here while everyone else was fighting." Goku stretched his limbs.
"B-boring!?" Wendy sputtered.
"He's just like Natsu…" Carla wanted to cry.
"Are you sure?" Mai asked.
"Yup! As long as I don't overdo it, my body should be fine." Goku said. The Saiyan from Earth closed his eyes, relaxing his body, and allowing his God KI to surge forth. His hair and eyes turned from black to red. "Alright! Let's go!" He took off to the skies to join the battle.
The battle in the skies shook the planet, the Saiyans and Dragon attempting to bring down the evil Saiyan. Each of their attempts to get close for physical attacks were met with failure as the evil KI kept them at bay from Cumber. "I'm far from done, you Saiyan monstrosity!" Vegeta declared.
"Don't count me out either! I'm gonna burn ya to a crisp!" Natsu shouted.
Trunks put away his sword. "Father! Natsu! Let's hit him with all that we've got!" He suggested, raising his hands above his head.
"Oh yeah!"
"Tch. Fine! BIG BANG ATTACK!"
"FINISH BUSTER!"
"FIRE DRAGON KING: BRILLIANT FLAME!"
All three attacks meshed together into one massive ball of destruction and crashed right into Cumber, generating a massive explosion that was strong enough to send the three fighters flying backwards. They balanced themselves in the air as the shockwaves died out. "Oh yeah! That had to have gotten him!" Natsu grinned.
"Aye sir!" Happy agreed.
Vegeta hissed. "Fools! He's far from dead yet!" Vegeta's declaration held true as the dust cleared to reveal that Cumber was relatively unharmed from their assault. His clothes were torn in places and a few burn marks on his body, but other than that the Evil Saiyan was fine.
"The hell!? Just what is this guy!?" Natsu gasped, shocked.
Cumber's KI surged once more, shooting out at the three warriors to decimate them into nothing, but before it could land a fourth figure teleported in front of the attack and pushed out his hands. "HA!" Goku screamed, creating a barrier to block Cumber's KI.
"Kakarot!?"
"Goku!"
"Weird hair guy!"
Goku chuckled. "Weird hair guy? That's a new one." He laughed at the nickname before growing serious. He turned to Cumber, getting into a stance. "I don't know what it is you did to me before, but it won't happen again!" Goku declared.
Cumber didn't respond, his eyes burning at the image of Goku or more specifically, his red hair color. Suddenly his ravaged mind flashed back to a memory of a certain Saiyan with red hair overwhelming him in battle. The Evil Saiyan's anger exploded like an atomic bomb. "Red hair…! A SAIYAN WITH RED HAIR!" His KI erupted violently, destroying the restraints that were holding him back the entire time.
Everyone felt the savage bloodlust that Cumber was pulsating and just how much his power managed to grow after breaking out of his restraints. "Just what the hell is he!?" Vegeta gasped.
"RAAAAAAGH!" Cumber roared, blasting towards Goku like a raging bull. The Saiyan from Earth was forced to put up his own defenses before Cumber's massive fist blasted him back down into the ground. Cumber turned to the others next, swinging his massive arm into Natsu, the Dragon Slayer and Exceed went flying off into a nearby batch of boulders.
Trunks attempted to attack, but Cumber grabbed him by his face and grand slammed him into the dirt before kicking him in the ribs off to the side.
"HAAA!" Vegeta charged up two KI blasts and unleashed a volley at Cumber, who simply stood unphased by the onslaught. He simply flew back towards the Prince, appearing behind him, and flip kicking Vegeta down towards Goku. Cumber was about to blast the two Saiyans to oblivion, but someone else got in his way.
"Sky Dragon: Roar!" A powerful blast of wind stole his attention. Looking over he saw Wendy floating in the air, her Dragon Force activated, and Carla carrying her. "It didn't do anything…!" Wendy panicked.
Cumber changed his attention to Wendy, raising his hand, and launching a black KI blast at the young Dragon Slayer. The girl and Exceed's eyes went with fear and shock at the speed of the blast. "CARLA!" Wendy shouted.
"IT'S TOO FAST!" Carla responded. The two awaited the inevitable pain, but nothing came. Opening their eyes they saw Golden Cooler breathing heavily having had to put more energy than he would've liked into deflecting that attack. "W-who are you?"
"Curses…! I must rather let you all be killed, but I'm going to need extra hands to get that Dragon Ball! Child! You better be prepared for a fight!" Cooler hissed at Wendy.
Wendy glared at him before turning her attention to Cumber. "A Fairy Tail mage never runs away! Especially when their friends are in danger! I don't know why you want those Dragon Ball things, but I'll do my best!"
As the battle against Cumber raged in the skies, Mai rushed over to Goku and Vegeta, who were slowly getting up. "Goku! Vegeta!" Mai reached into her coat's breast pocket, pulling out several things. "Here."
Vegeta glanced at what was in her hands. It was a single pair of Potara Earrings and… "Senzu Beans!? You've had those the whole time!?" He yelled at her.
She looked down regretfully. "S-sorry. I didn't fully trust those mages yet and didn't want to risk wasting them. But there's no time for that now."
"W-where did you get these?" Goku asked.
"Supreme Kai gave them to me before we left. It's our only shot at beating that guy." Mai said. She watched as the two ate a Senzu Bean, getting back to full health. Then Goku took one and Vegeta begrudgingly took the other. The two Saiyans placed an earring onto one ear, the godly items glowed before merging the two Saiyans together in a bright light.
Natsu slowly sat up, holding Happy protectively in his arms. He grunted before his senses alerted him of another powerful entity emerging. He looked over and saw a bright light shooting into the sky. "W-what's that?" He asked, getting back onto his feet.
Trunks crawled onto his knees, breathing heavily. He felt the sensation of his father and Goku's KI merging together and smirked. "Fusion."
Lucy felt her body aching slightly, not as much as it did before. The Celestial Mage sat up, trying to get her senses back together. When she did, she noticed both Gray and Erza were lying next to her. "W-what's going on? What happened to that Cumber guy?" Lucy observed the battlefield and finally took notice of the pillar of light. "What the hell is that!?"
Wendy felt her body crying out in pain after Cumber's fist folded her over. The young girl heard Carla cry out her name before the cat was unceremoniously smacked away by Cumber. "C-Carla…" The Evil Saiyan's massive hand grabbed the top of her head and started squeezing it like a squishy ball. "G-GAAAAAA!" Wendy screamed loudly. Her voice was heard all over the battlefield. Cumber would've crushed her skull like a watermelon had he not felt the immensely strong presence teleport behind him. He dropped Wendy and turned to block the kick that pushed him away from the young girl.
The new arrival held the young Dragon Slayer in his arms, her eyes slowly opened to see the familiar head of spiky hair. "V-Vegeta?"
"Heh. Not quite." He answered. "Here, eat this." He placed a small green bean in her mouth, Wendy was confused until she ate the bean. Her eyes widened once all of her wounds and exhaustion were healed instantly.
"W-what!?" She gasped. She looked back at the new fighter. "J-just who are you?"
"Me? I'm the fusion of Vegeta and Kakarot. But you can just call me Vegito!" Vegito declared as he descended to the ground and placed Wendy on the grass. "And this is Vegito…BLUE!" He powered up, shaking the earth with his might, his hair changed from black to blue. The fused warrior smirked at Cumber, who was glaring down at him with scornful eyes. The two powerful Saiyans charged towards one another before engaging in a clash that shook the planet!
PLANET: PRISON PLANET
AREA: UNKNOWN
Fu was like a kid during Christmas as he observed the ground shaking battle from the monitor. "Not only has Cumber broken free from his restraints, but we also have the Potara Fusion! The merging of two minds and bodies of two people. Never thought I'd get to see so much here! This is the best!"
PLANET: PRISON PLANET
AREA: "GREEN"
Several people stood on a grassy hill, observing the heroes' battle against Cumber. The leader of the group chuckled as the fight's shockwaves could be felt from here. His companions weren't entirely on the same wavelength.
"Are you sure it's a good idea to let him run rampant like this?" A male asked. His black and white eyes stared at the conflict with slight uncertainty.
"Of course. It'll be better for us to let Cumber have his fun before initiating the plan. Though, once he's done feel free to grab him." The leader said.
"Understood." The male answered before vanishing in a portal of shadows.
The leader looked over at the female that was staring off into a different direction. "Are you regretting your choice of joining me?"
She turned back to him. "No."
"You feel bad over the death of your previous leader then?"
"Not in the slightest. The jackass killed me just to get at that brat and failed miserably. He can permanently rot in hell for all I care. It's the others that didn't deserve to sink with his ship." She mourned her previous comrades.
The leader grabbed her chin, turning her head to his. "Their deaths are tragic, yes. But they made their choices in the end and that's the consequence. Do not allow that to waver you from what our goal is. To correct this universe and every other one from the cruelty of the gods."
"Yes…" She responded with loyalty. "Master Hearts."
Chapter End
NOTE: Hey! I hope this chapter didn't feel TOO chaotic. It was pretty much everyone vs Cumber, and the Evil Saiyan beating the hell out of them. Yes, at the end that woman is Zangya. She has joined Hearts' gang in their quest of killing all gods.
Who was that other guy? I'll give you an obvious hint: White and Shadows
Natsu didn't kill Bido, but the guy will die anyway when the planet explodes.
Hopefully you guys enjoyed the fights. The Fairies will get more fair battles once we get off the Prison Planet. Cumber is literally a different breed.
I think we'll be on the Prison Planet for maybe one or two more chapters before we start engaging with Hearts.
Erza still being down and out is due to Cumber's KI messing with her magic energy since she doesn't have KI. That's why Goku got up faster. Erza will wake up soon.
Merry Christmas!
