Chapter 59: Down with the Mjölnir
In the E-Zone, were the Earthlanders with the aid of the Exceeds, Happy and Gil, fought the Golden Mjölnir in the new form of the E-Zone, made by Antolt´s Command Word.
Divided into each group to take the Golden Mjölnir down once and for all, each now had to face their foe again in their empowered states.
Natsu and Mira charged at Antolt, as each sent their respective attacks at them.
Mira had picked up structure using the enhanced strength of her Satan Soul, before throwing it at Antolt. Antolt, still having his stoic expression, cut it as then red texts appeared it, before it exploded into pieces.
"Harisakeru!" Antolt said, as the pieces went down the ground, and before him, stood Natsu as he charged with his Kuroryuken sword with black energy.
"Suitichi." Antolt said, and in a second, he was gone as Natsu then looked at where he had gone in confusion, before seeing him on top of one of the buildings.
"Clever little bastard, aren't ya." Natsu said, and Antolt simply responded to turn at him with silence.
"With Suiticihi, I managed to place the area with different marks across the area. Normally I can only use it once, and need to dispel it to use it for my other Spells." Antolt said, before looking at the Command Word he had. "But with Command Tact, it has been able to make me overcast these limits, as I don't need to expel other Spells for me to do so." Antolt thought, before then Mira flied towards him, but he managed to teleport himself using the Suiticihi Spell.
As Antolt had teleported himself to another part of his area, Mira and Natsu went to charge at him, albeit still far way, this time at the same time.
"Satan Blast!" Mira said, firing a beam of darkness at Antolt, which Natsu took a deep breath and fire a stream of darkness at him as well. "Abyss Dragon´s Roar!" Natsu said, as his and Mira´s attack went straight for him.
Antolt disappeared again like a flash, as he then moved to another spot on of the many tower-like structures of his area. When Natsu and Mira turned to him, he then pointed his Command Word at them. "Dammit, stop running away like a coward already!" Natsu said.

"On the contrary, it's you who should run." Antolt said, as his Command Word then glowed purple. "You shall now experience of what Command Word can do!" Antolt said, and the tower-like buildings like buildings then went to literally move as if the towers got a life on their own, stretching themselves far up into the air.
"Command Word: Anzen Domain!" Antolt said, as the towers, now as gigantic tentacles, went to attack Natsu and Mira, pointing his Command Word at them.
"Now, let's see you dodge this time. Command Word: Anzen Barrage!" Antolt said, as the large structure tentacles went at them.
Despite their sizes, the tentacles went to at them with great speed, Natsu and Mira. But rather than fleeing, they charged their attacks at the incoming towers.
"Dammit, once thing after another." Mira said, preparing her next attacks.
"Satanic Barrage!" Mira said, as she blasted several blasts at a rapid pace at the tentacles, which disintegrated upon impact.
Smoke and dust were everywhere, as she turned around for what to come next. Mira then turned to Antolt, who still stood on the tower.
"You gotta need more than size and numbers to take me down." Mira said. "Trust me, you haven't seen anything yet." Antolt said, as another structure appeared from behind Mira, this time taking in the form of a large, serpent-like face with a fang of sharp teeth, ready to bite her.
But before it could reach her, another blast came and blasted its head straight off. "Abyss Dragon´s Roar!" Natsu said, who was on one of the other towers, being shorter than the one Antolt was, and his breath he sent disintegrating the head to ashes.
"Thanks Natsu! Sorry, I lost focus." Mira said. "No problem, just make sure not to lose focus again." Natsu said. "Although I'm no position of saying that." Natsu thought, scratching his cheek with his finger.
At the same time, Antolt saw the scene with minor annoyance. "You really were fast enough to dodge that. How about this one?" Antolt said, as another serpent faced structure went to him.
"Anzen Domain: Hebi Hitokuchi!" Antolt said, as the serpent of stone went at Mira.
This time, Mira was prepared as she fired a dark beam right at the time when the stone serpent were right at her, and with its maws open, crushing it to pieces.
Antolt "tshed" in annoyance as a reaction, then raised his weapon in the air, which glow purple, and this time had ten stone serpents appeared to rise in the air. "Then how about this? Anzen Domain: Tasu Hebi Hitokuchi!" Antolt said, as the ten stone serpents came at Antolt´s enemies.
Mira simply flew towards them, while Natsu, using his Dark-Make to make wings of darkness to fly off to aid Mira.
"Don't leave me out this, Mira!" Natsu said, flying at great speed. "And don't you forgot about me neither, Edolas Freed!" Natsu said, as then was with Mira as the flied towards the incoming Stone Serpents.
Natsu slashed with his Kuroryuken sword, while Mira sent a powerful dark blast them, as they both destroyed to five Stone Serpents with ease.
Antolt sent more Stone Serpents at his enemies, and as they came at Natsu and Mira, Natsu right in front of Mira. "Mira, stand behind me!" Natsu said, and knowing him, Mira did as she was told.
As the numerous stone serpents came at him, he then began to repeatedly slash with his Kuroryuken sword for a moment, until he stopped.
"Abyss Blade: Stars of the Night!" Natsu said, as then the stone serpents were cut in thousands of brick like pieces.
Another stone serpent came right at them, and this time forced Natsu and Mira to separate from each other, landing on the neck of a different stone serpent from each other. As Natsu landed, his darkness wings dissolved.
"Don't even think I reached the limit of my power." Antolt said, his sword glowing once more.
"Command Word: Anzen Domain: Gansekisoo!" Antolt said, as the necks where Natsu and Mira had landed now began to have figures of stone rising from the ground, taking in the form of a large group of samurai-like warriors of stone, each having a katana as a weapon.
The samurai-like warriors of rock then went to charge at Natsu with their swords ready to attack, which Natsu in return cut them left to right with ease into pieces, as he charged towards Antolt.
At the same time, Mira was to fly off the neck of one of the giant stone serpents, but then several tentacles of stone rose to keep her at bay.
But before the stone tentacles could reach her, she used her claws to slice them into pieces, before she then went to charge at Antolt as well.
Whoever wins this fight, will leave an impact on Edolas´ future.

With Ur and Layla, the duo mothers dodged a powerful slash from the sword of the Fire Knight, causing flames to be erupted from the ground. Layla had her Aile Du Ciel sword ready, as she then turned to Neptune. "Neptune, dispel the flames!" Layla ordered. "Got it!" Neptune said, as he raised his trident in the air and swirled it around, before then pointed it towards the Fire Knight.
But to his shock, no water appeared on his trident, shocking Layla and Ur said well. "What´s happening? Why my powers aren't working?!" Neptune said.
"Seriously, do you never listen?" Shebadus said who sat on the shoulder of the Shadow Knight. "Now that Antolt-san has control over the area, your chances have gone to zero percent. The elements in this zone, Fire, Water, Air, Lightning, and Shadow, are in my control, thanks to Antolt-san´s Command Word." Shebadus said. "And with the Command Tacts abilities to change and control the area, merged with Katana´s Word´s powers to cause effects on the objects it's had it written on, it has truly made us invincible!" Shebadus thought in arrogance. '

Layla and Neptune´s expressions were in dismay. Layla´s Aiel Du Ciel was Wind Elemental Celestial Magic weaponry, and Neptune was a Celestial Spirit who used a Water Magic, things have clearly gone to the disadvantage for Layla and Neptune.
"Then what about ice?!" Ur said, running towards Shebadus, and made a bow of ice, before an ice arrow appeared, which she fired at Shebadus.
Much to Ur´s delight, the ice arrow went straight towards Shebadus, who didn't even look at her direction, but the ice arrow coming towards him was stopped by being grabbed by the Shadow Knights hand.
"Yes, it seems that only the elements the Knights possess can be controlled." Shebadus said in annoyance, before turning to Ur. "And did you honestly think you could strike me with a primitive attack like that?" Shebadus said.
At the time he said the line, Layla rushed to the legs of the Shadow Knight, preparing to strike, however, Shebadus saw it coming, as he had the Shadow Knight to swing its scythe, forcing Layla to dodge.
"Even if I cannot use Elemental Magic, I'm still gonna try to try to attack you psychically." Layla said, as she saw the Water Knight and the Lightning Knight charging at her once Layla had landed on the ground.
Neptune came in the scene, his trident ready in display, preparing to attack. "Even if you make me unable to control water, my brute strength is more than enough." Neptune said, but the Water Knight, pointed his spear at Neptune, encasing him in a water bubble. "Hah! You think you can drown me? I am Water Spirit!" Neptune said. "Oh, but can you handle the electricity then?" Shebadus said, as the Lightning Knight pointed his sword at Neptune, who was in the bubble.
However, before the Lightning Knight could fire off, Neptune then grow into size, growing into his Giant Form. "Then how about I take advantage in size then?" Neptune said, towering over Shebadus and his Elemental Knights.
(End of Bleach ost here)
"You really must be desperate to think you can take me and my Knights down with size alone." Shebadus said. "No, I'm not the only one you are fighting." Neptune said.
Ur sent another barrage of ice arrows at Shebadus, who simply had the Fire Knight to come and melt the ice away with its flames.
Ur was then forced to jump back as the Fire Knight began to repeatedly slam its fire sword on the ground, stabbing as it left holes filled with glowing, molten rock behind.
Eventually Ur was forced to make a round shield of ice to block the fire sword, as it melted once it touched the ice shield. However, Ur then went to make a long spear of ice to then try to counter its sword, which in turned caused the ice to melt again.
"It seems small amounts of ice won't do..." Ur said and jumped away once again, and while in the air, she crossed her hands. "...then how about this? Ice-Make: Bubble Cage!" Ur said, as she surrounded the Fire Knight in a large ice sphere.
Before the Fire Knight could melt the ice away, Ur used her Ice Magic to make the ice sphere thicker, which in turn would cause it take more to melt the ice sphere.
But as she did so, the Lightning Knight came into the scene and smashed with its hammer of lightning at Ur!
She was forced to make another shield of ice with one of her hands, as the other worked on keeping the Fire Knight in the ice Bubble. Despite using only one hand, the Ice Shield was big enough to cover her entire figure. But when the Lightning Hammer struck, the force of it sent her flying away, albeit with no injuries.
Once she landed on the ground, the Fire Knight broke free from the ice bubble.
The Knights of Lightning and Fire went to charge with its hammer and sword at Ur, who grit her teeth.
"I really am in a pinch here." Ur said, before she then jumped in to the air, made a pair of large great swords, each bigger than her person, to prepare her next attack.
"But I won't fall because of it. Ice-Make: Crescent Slash!" Ur said and sent several crescent shaped slashes of ice at the Elemental Knights.

At the same, Layla and Neptune were fighting against the Vine Knight and the Wind Knight. Neptune tried to smash the Wind Knight with his tentacles at it, which managed to dodge it with incredible speed.
Layla was facing the Vine Knight, who used to its dual sword to slash at Layla, who dodged them with ease.
The Vine Knight then began to sprout a mass of vine-like tentacles from its body, to then sent them at Layla to ensnare her.
However, even if Aile Du Ciel couldn't use its Wind Based Magic as of now, it was still a deadly weapon, as it managed to cute the Vine Tentacles to pieces, before then going straight the Vine Knight.
As she was right before, the Vine Knight tried to attack Layla with its sword, but was too late as she managed to cut it in half, from its left shoulder to down to its left hip.
Layla had a smile of victory on her face, but it was short lived as then the Vine Knight went to regenerate itself from the attack, as its vines managed to pull itself together.
"What?!" A shocked Layla said, as she then saw the Water Knight charge at her, forcing her dodge as she then landed on the ground and went beneath its legs to escape.
Layla watched the Vine regenerate itself, which Shebadus notice of it immediately. "You really think something like taking down an Element Knight?! Don't be ridiculous. The Elemental Knights are invincible, with no weakness whatsoever! Whatever you do, will only cause them to pull themselves back together!" Shebadus said.

Layla and Ur grit their teeth, as they, along with Neptune, were forced to fight with enemies that could regenerate themselves, showing to be way tougher than what they thought.
At the same time, Yukino and Lucy were once again facing off against the Edolas Counterpart of Evergreen, Trevoa.
(Play Bleach ost Senna here)
With Yukino and Lucy charging at them, they had had their Celestial Spirits Spirit Keys in their hands, prepared to summon their respective Spirit.
"Open! Gate of the Lion: Leo!"
"Open: Gate of the Heavenly Scales: Libra!"
Pair of bright lights were shining, as the Spirits they had summoned entered the battlefield.
Leo cuffed his sleeves while Libra simply stood with her stoic expression behind the face blanket.
"I guess we are in a fight again, Lucy?" Leo said. "Yeah, and don't underestimate her. Her Spicy Gloves can make things soft and elastic like rubber, and the other way around." Lucy said, turning her eyes on the chained Coco, who was chained on one of the floating blocks.
"Yeah, the other Spirits told me about her abilities, so I shall be careful." Leo said, before then running towards Trevoa, his hands covered in a sphere of light.
Before Trevoa could use her Magic, Leo´s hand stood before her face.
"Don't worry, this will only sting your eyes a bit. Brilliant Embrace!" Leo said, and then a bright, powerful light were emitted.
"This will only blind her for a while, but will give me an opportunity to strike her. With her blinded for a bit, I should be able to land a powerful strike to finish her off!" Leo said, and then was to punch her in the face with a light covered fist, but to his shock, his fist missed as she was not in the spot where she was supposed to be.
Before Leo could react, Trevoa then appeared behind Leo, holding a knife and prepared to stab him from behind. She was still blinded from Leo´s attack, but not as Leo tried to do, as Trevoa managed to cover her eyes cover it struck her.
And what Trevoa was about to stab Leo, Yukino had already taken noticed of it. "Not gonna let you! Libra! Decrease the gravity and send with her feet directed to one of the floating stone platforms, at great force!" Yukino ordered, and Libra as she was told.
Libra decreased the gravity around Trevoa, sending her at great speed towards one of the floating pillars, with her sent with her feet first.
"Good work! With her hands not being able touch it, due to the intense force, she cannot soften it!" Lucy said.
However, as Trevoa was sent at one of the square stone pillars, her hands glow and much to everyone's shock, when she touched the pillar, instead of breaking it into pieces, it extended and Trevoa sank into the softened stone.
"WHAT?!" Lucy shouted. "But her hands didn't touch it the stone first! What could have...?" Yukino said in confused, but then a realization both came to both her and Lucy.
"Could it be... that an enchantment for the Command Word?" Lucy said, as then Trevoa emerged from the softened stone slab, and then pointed her hands to them.
The ground beneath Lucy, Yukino, Leo and Libra began to move, with them then sinking into the ground like quick sand.
"This isn't good!" Lucy said. "Libra, decrease the gravity around immediately!" Yukino ordered, with Libra did as they were told.
Luckily, they were able to float to the air before it was too late for them, as they floating in the air, with them managing to keep a steady position, and Lucy then turned to Trevoa.
(End Bleach ost here)
"The Command Word must have enchanted your ability in some way, didn't it?" Lucy said. "Meaning that you now don't need to touch the objects directly to soften them, as you know can turned anything soft as long as you can aim your hands at them. Am I right?" Lucy said.
"I am so sorry, but you are very much right!" Trevoa said, bowing down in apology. "DON'T APOLOGIZE TO YOUR ENEMIES!" Lucy comically shouted, but then going back to business.
"But then, if we land on the floating platform, she may be able to trap us once in them." Yukino said. "True, meaning we must take her out soon as possible!" Leo said.
"I'm once again sorry, but I am not gonna let you do that, especially with the same trick twice!" Trevoa said, as she then pointed her hand to one of the blocks, with it turning into soft once, and this time extended towards the group.
"She can extend them as well?!" Lucy said as it went towards the group. "Even if I cannot shape it into spikes or make soldiers like Antolt-san, I can still shape it and have it harden when it reaches them." Trevoa thought.
"Yukino-sama, look out!" Libra said, as took the hit of the extending stone before her master. "LIBRA-SAMA!" Yukino screamed, as the attack forced Libra to return to the Celestial Spirit World. "I'm sorry, Yukino-sama..." Libra said as she dissolved, and due to Libra leaving, the gravity around Yukino, Lucy and Leo went back to normal, causing them to fall to the ground, which was far down to the ground.
"Lucy, Yukino, grab onto me!" Leo said, grabbing onto Lucy and Yukino, as the young Celestial Spirit wizard took out one of the other Celestial Spirit Keys, summoning another Celestial Spirit.
"Open: Gate of the Paired Fish: Pisces!" Yukino said, as golden light was shown, with the two pair of giant black and white eel-like fishes appeared.
"Good idea, Yukino-san!" Leo said, as he, Lucy and Yukino went to land on them, with Leo on the Son Fish, while Lucy and Yukino were on the Mother Fishes.
"Thank you Pisces-sama, and sorry to summon you for such a strange reason." Yukino said, with either the Son Pisces or Mother Pisces had any problems at her.
But their attention was once turned back on Trevoa, who was still standing on one of the stone platforms.
"But for now, let's focus on the enemy. With the odds against us, we must make sure to focus in order to win." Lucy said, and then turned to the chained Coco. "And make sure that we save her, regain the Key and stop all this madness." Leo and Yukino agreed, which then Pisces flew towards Trevoa, who used her Magic.
With Happy and Gil, they were still chased by Battalion, who attempted to devour them, but before he could do so, Happy then turned the blade of his sword into a large snake that struck the face of Battalion.
It didn't knock him out; only send him a bit far away.
"Wow, I don't wanna boast, but damn that was some power!" Happy said. "You can pamper yourself when we are out of this mess! Right now, we need to do something about that Monster of a Legion!" Gil said, as Battalion got up after being knocked away by Happy´s Kusanagi.
"Well, that thing won't be going down from my Kusanagi alone." Happy said and then turned to Gil.
"But didn't you say you have an idea?" Happy said. "Yes, and I need to you distract it for some time. Because what I am going to do, it's an all or nothing gamble. If we fail in this one, we won't have another chance." Gil said.
"Okay, then what I'm gonna do then?" Happy said. "I need to keep you distracted for long as you can. "Then, I when I fired this flare, you will run towards the direction it was sent, with the Legion coming after you, whatever you do, you must make sure Battalion doesn't fly. Do you understand? Because trust me, it's all part of the plan." Gil said. "Seems simple enough." Happy said, turning to Battallion. "Hopefully, I won't have already been eaten by the Legion till then." Happy said, and then flew towards Battalion.
"Hey, you reptile bastard!" Happy shouted, as Battalion turned to him. "Why won't you have a taste of this?" Happy said, and then the blade of the Kusanagi turned into a serpent, going towards Battalion.
Battalion managed to swat away the snake blade, before then charging at the flying blue cat. Happy, remembering what Gil just had told him, he tried to make sure that Battalion didn't choose after him, went to fly away as he was chased by Battalion.
Dodging bite after bite, using the Kusanagi in its default to block the jaws of Battalion. Using his wings, Happy flied faster to escape from Battalion, but made sure to keep him at a safe distance for Gil´s plan to work.
"Dammit, is Gil done or what...?" Happy said, and then saw a red flare going up to the air, signaling that Gil was done.
"It's about time!", and then went to fly beneath Battalions legs, who still chase after him.
As Happy with Battalion running after him, and soon enough, the ground beneath loudly exploded!
Happy turned to see that now a big, green smoke screen was covering the area where Battalion now stood on. As Battalion breathed in the smoke, he slowly lost consciousness and then fell down on the ground knocked out.
"What was that?" Happy said, landing on the ground as Gil stood with a proud grin in his face.
"That was my El Sleepo Gas Bomb: Extra Dose Edition. In the past, after I was banished from Extalia, I used these sleep gas bombs to knock out large Legions that came chasing after me. But knowing even bigger monsters would chase these; I made this one just in case for an emergency like this." Gil said.
"So, by planting one of these bombs underground, you had it explode like a mine beneath him." Happy said. "Exactly and now..." Gil said as he flied above Battalion, and then placed a bunch of small, white round across the black Legion, which then exploded and formed a white net to contain the black Legion in its track.
"Just in case. I never used this bomb before, meaning it can be either longer or shorter than the average. So that's why I need to keep safety proportions for this." Gil said.
"Alright, but let's keep moving." Happy said and then turned to the battles that were currently going on in the E-Zone.
"Happy, I don't want to sound and pessimistic, but I don't we can be of any aid in their battle. Even if I had a stronger version of that Sleepo Bomb I just used, I doubt it would work on enemy of them." Gil said. "Don't you worry about that, because knowing them, since the day I was born, I know they are able to handle this." Happy said, having faith in them.
With Layla and Ur fighting the attacking Elemental Knights, they dodged attack after attack the were send at
The slashed with its great sword, and despite its size, it was able to move it with great and rapid speed.
Ur made a pillar for it to slow it down, but it only made it slow down for a bit, much to her frustration.
The Vine Knight slashed with its swords at Layla, who tried to her best to block or dodge the attacks with her Aile Du Ciel Sword, albeit she was started to lose the steady ground.
At the same time, as much Neptune wanted to help her, he was busy fighting the Water Knight and the Lightning Knight.
The Lightning Knight sent several bolts of electricity from its hammer at Neptune, who blocked it with his arm, albeit it did some damage.
The Water Knight sent with tridents powerful stream of twirling water at Neptune, which he managed to block off as well.
"It's no use, whatever you throw at me, it won't be enough to budge me!" Neptune said.
"I see..." Shebadus said, his arms crossed. "Then maybe this will give you some budge." Shebadus said, then the Water Knight pointed its trident, while the Lightning Knight aimed its hammer. With their weapons charged with lightning and water, it was to first seem that they were gonna fire it at Neptune.
But then, in the last second, the Elemental Knights changed their directions and instead fired it at Layla instead, much to Neptune´s horror.
"LAYLA!" Neptune shouted, before he went to grab his blonde master. But as his arm reaches to her, with him distracted, they then fired their attacks of water and lightning, which they turned it back to Neptune.
With the lethal combination of lightning and water, it caused a great amount of damage to him, and in the next second, he was charred and covered with marks,
"NEPTUNE!" Layla screamed. "Don't... worry... Layla..." Neptune said weakly, trying to reach to his master, but then the Wind Knight flew towards him, and then used its axe to send a powerful wind slash at him, striking him in the chest!
"Layla, I'm sorry... but I don't think I can do more for now..." Neptune said, as he went to return to the Celestial Spirit World. "But I know you can handle this fight..." Neptune said with a smile, before completely dissolving into spirit particles.
Layla watched in horror, but then it turned into one of anger, as she turned her angry glare at Shebadus. "Well, well, well. With one Spirit out of the fight, it's now lesser allies for you." Shebadus said, as then the Wind Knight went to charge at Layla next.
"It's over! Finish her!" Shebadus commanded, as the Wind Knight went to attack Layla with its axe, raising it in the air and brought it down to strike her.
But Layla managed dodge it as she jumped into the air, with her face full of anger and then proceed to stab the Wind Knights face, right in the middle of the cross shaped hole!
After she stabbed, something strange happened. The Wind Knight had stopped to move completely, as it then stood still like a statue, as it then slowly began to dispersed, from its legs to its head, until it then begin to disperse as well.
Layla eyes widened, as her sword was now piercing a small, white sphere, big enough to be held in a ring between her index and thumb. It began to crack and fall into two, before disintegrating completely.
"What... happened...?" Layla said in confused and then landed on the ground.
Shebadus´ face had turned pale, as he had now seen that one of his Elemental Knights, had been taken down.
"Could it be... that these orbs are the weakness?" Layla said, and with a small grin on her face, she then turned to Ur.
"Ur! I found the Knights' weaknesses! They each have an orb within their bodies! Destroy the orbs and the Knights will go down!" Layla said.
Ur, grinning of hearing the weakness of the Knights, then to attack the Knight according to the information Layla had given her.
"Thanks a lot for the information, Layla." Ur said, turning to the Lightning Knight that was before her, dodging a smash from its hammer.
"We can now gain an advantage in this!" Ur grinned, as she saw the Lightning Knight before her.
At the same time, Lucy and Yukino, with the aid of Pisces and Leo, fought Trevoa as the brunette sent another attack at them.
With Lucy, Yukino and Leo abroad Pisces, they dodged the liquid stone coming.
"Dammit, there is no end to this!" Lucy said, as extension of softened stone came at them.
"This is getting out of hand! At this rate, we won't be able to make any progress!" Lucy said. "Then, I have an idea." Leo said, and then turned to Yukino.
"Yukino-san, I want you to fly us as far as you can, but don't get the wrong idea, as we won't escape. I have a plan that might work for this." Leo said. With Yukino nodding, she then ordered Pisces to do as they told, with them flying away from a safe distance.
As they were flying behind the floating pillars, Trevoa couldn't help but to get suspicions of her enemies' actions.
"Are they escaping? No, that couldn't be it. They must be planning a strategy of some kind, meaning that their next move could be something that could decide the turn of this battle." Trevoa thought.
She then had another barrage of attacks, taking in the form of liquid stone from the floating stone blocks at her enemies, whom barely dodged the attack.
"I cannot lose here. I am part of the Golden Mjölnir, and I cannot afford to bring them any shame by losing here!" Trevoa thought, as she then she saw Lucy, Leo and Yukino, who were riding on Pisces, as they all approached her.
Trevoa used her Magic to send another attack at them, as this time, it struck both the Mother and Son Pisces. As they fell down, they were both forced to return to the Celestial Spirit World, causing Lucy, Leo and Yukino to fall down to the ground.
"Now´s my chance!" Trevoa said, as she then to charge at them for another attack, using the softened ground beneath her to expend towards the group, and took out a pair of curved daggers for her to attack with.
Once Trevoa was right before the group, Leo´s hand once again was covered in a bright, golden light.
"I told you this before, you won't be able to blind me with it!" Trevoa said, before Leo went to punch her, which she blocked by crossing her hands, sending her back a bit.
The entire area was covered with a bright light in the form of a sphere, before it died down, with Lucy, Yukino and Leo falling down the ground with a crash.
Once on the ground, Trevoa went to take the opportunity to soften the ground like quick sand, keeping the trio from escaping.
Trevoa jumped to the ground, as she then used her Spicy Gloves to have Lucy, Yukino and Leo rose from the ground, as they all stood before her.
"It's sad that things had to come to this, and for that, I am sorry..." Trevoa said, taking out her daggers, preparing to kill Lucy and Yukino.
"...but that is to be expected in a battle. For whatever battle there is, for one to win, one must lose, even if it means someone's life." Trevoa said, as her blades were then right before their throats.
"Please remember that in the next life, okay?" Trevoa said, and Lucy went to speak next.
"Piri piri, don't worry, we won't." Yukino said, much to Trevoa´s confusion. But then, before Trevoa could do any further moves, another Yukino suddenly appeared from behind and kicked her in the head!
"WHAT?!" A confused and shocked Trevoa said, before she was sent a bit away, causing `Yukino´, Leo and Lucy to be free.
"What´s going on? Why there are two of you?!" Trevoa said, as `Yukino´ suddenly went at her, jumped over Trevoa, landing beside the other Yukino.
The two Yukino went to grab each of Trevoa's hands, preventing her from using her Spicy Gloves.
Leo went to charge his fists in light, as Lucy was beside her.
"As you are confused right now, I can understand, since you just meet. Meet Gemini, one of Yukino´s Celestial Spirits, who can transform into anyone!" Lucy said, as Trevoa was kept in bay by Yukino and Gemini Yukino.
"But how? I didn't see you summon any spirits at all..." Trevoa said, before remembering when Leo used his light to blind her.
"Don't tell me, back then..." Trevoa said, as Scorpio prepared for his attack. "Yes, back then, we make a strategy earlier, with Leo coming up the idea." Lucy said.
A bit earlier...
On Pisces, Leo was to tell him about his plan to Lucy and Yukino.
"By luring her towards us, I will use my powers to temporally blind her, but this time not to attack, but for something else."
"As you know, at your current level, you can only summon one Celestial Spirit at a time, which is why while I she is blinded, Yukino will take the chance to summon Gemini, transforming into her, while the real Yukino will go unnoticed and await for a perfect chance to attack." Leo explained.
"That's sounds like a plan." Yukino said. "Yeah, and but there is something to do it." Leo said and took a deep breath. "Because for this plan, Pisces must take a hit." Leo said, shocking both Lucy and Yukino.
They both want to shout in response but was afraid it would gain the attention of Trevoa, risking their victory.
"You are telling Pisces are to take a hit? What are you thinking?! Yukino and those two are right here as we speak." Lucy said, as she and Yukino was shocked after hearing what Leo had said.
"I know that you both wouldn't like the idea. But judging from the situation we are in right now, we pretty much don't a choice." Leo said, turning to the two large fishes. "And knowing Pisces, they are sure to understand." Leo said.
"He is right, Yukino-san." The Mother Pisces said. "Pisces-sama?" Yukino said. "In this situation, we pretty much don't have a choice here. If we don't take a risk right here and now, we won't be able to take Trevoa down." The Son Pisces explained.
"But..." Lucy said. "Lucy, don't worry. Remember, we won't die from this, and will instead teleport back to the Celestial Spirit world. We will be healed in no time there." Leo said.
"But I don't you to be treated like a distraction! Not this way!" Lucy said, and Leo grabbed her shoulders. "Lucy, look. As things are tensed up right now, you must take risks here and there! "As a wizard, whatever mission you are in, or whatever Magic you are using, you must know that there are times when they are needed to take risks! Things are not always fun and joy in being a wizard." Leo said.
"And I know that you are not either Karen or Angel! The same with you Yukino!" Leo said, turning to Yukino. "I know it, because I, Celestial Spirit, is the one who came up with the idea, not this! I know that if you or Yukino ever came up with this, you would never use that idea!" Leo said, with Lucy and Yukino was left silent for a moment, their eyes shadowed. "Please, come up with an idea! The answer must be right here and now!" Leo said.
And then, Yukino went to speak, as she and Lucy knew what to do. "Lucy-sama, we follow Leo-sama's plan, and we only got one shot at this, so we can't mess this one up!" Yukino said, so if we remember and do the plan clearly, victory can be within our reach!" Lucy said, as she and the others went with the plan.
Present...
"And with that, we managed to pull it off quite well. As your Spicy Gloves cannot affect living things, you're now within our grasp!" Lucy said and then turned to Leo.
"LEO! You know what to do!" Lucy said. "You got it!" Leo said, rushing towards Trevoa, and then began to rapidly send punches at her.
"Regulus Gatling!" Leo said, sending a rapid motion of fists covered in light at Trevoa, making sure that every single blow landed on her.
Both Yukinos hold onto her, making not to let her escape from the attack.
After a minute went by, Leo stopped, leaving Trevoa with bruises and marks.
"And that should do the job." Leo said, turning around and walked away. "You can let go now. I doubt she would be able to continue." Leo said.
Both Yukino's let her go, with Trevoa then falling with her back on the floor, beaten, bruised and defeated.
"To think, that I was the first to be defeated?" Trevoa thought, as Lucy and Yukino, with the latter turning to Leo, and Gemini, who turned back into their regular form. "Thanks for the aid, Leo-sama. Tell Pisces-sama back at your world that I am sorry, and I hope to make it up for it as soon as possible." Yukino said. "You´re welcome, and don't you worry about it. I will." Leo said, returning to his home world. "Piri piri, I am hoping we did a good job as well." Gemini said. "Don't worry, Gemini-sama, you did a good job too." Yukino said, as the Gemini returned to the Celestial Sprit World as well.
Lucy and Yukino turned to the defeated Trevoa, as tears was in her eyes.
"To think, I was the first one to be defeated. And by your low tactics, to add to the wound..." Trevoa said.
"You think that we enjoyed putting them throat that?" Lucy said, as her eyes were shadowed. "Then, you should understand the pain Yukino and I felt when we were using our Spirits like that." Lucy said, as tears threatened to come from her eyes, and the same to Yukino. "We would never come up with something like that, and only did it because Leo was the one suggesting it. If Yukino and I were the ones suggesting it, we would never call ourselves Celestial Spirit wizards, or even as human beings!" Lucy said, anger rose in her voice. "We did it because we had to, and unlike you, we hope to repay for what they did for us." Lucy said, before then walking towards where Coco was chained at alongside Yukino, before she turned to Trevoa one last time.
"Please keep that in mind. If you know what is right and wrong." Lucy said, before she and Yukino walked to Coco to free her. Evergreen Trevoa could only respond with silence, as she lay on the floor defeated.
Back with Ur and Layla vs Shebadus, Layla and Ur continued their fight against The Elemental Knights, with one of them taken down.
"To think that Trevoa was defeated so easily. No matter, we can also always take the enemies down with ease before they escape." Shebadus thought, watching Ur fight the Lightning Knight, while Layla was fighting the Wind Knight and the Water Knight.
As Ur charged at the Lightning, she went to create a large of sword of ice, jumped high in the air and went to slash the Lightning Knight´s head off. As its head was off, she went to cut off then vertically, hoping to destroy the sphere in it, but shockingly, it didn't, much to Ur´s shock.
"You really think I wouldn't be prepared for that?! As I can control the Knights, I can control where the sphere´s that in their bodies as well! Even if you know that the Spheres are their weak point, it's not use of taking either me or my Knights down!" Shebadus said.
"If that´s the case..." Ur said, landing on the ground, jumped away a bit crossed her arms and several spears of ice appeared around her.
"... then let's see where you put the sphere in! Ice-Make: Frozen Spear Barrage!" Ur said, as the ice spears went towards the Lightning Knight at a great speed.
Coming at a rapid speed, they made holes on the Lightning Knight, causing it to quickly regenerate itself from the attacks, and Ur, had her eyes focused, not only in attacking her enemy. Around herself and the Lightning Knight, a mist of ice was made around them.
"Knowing the regenerating rate, the sphere needs to be in a spot large enough for it being contained in, meaning that the sphere will be forced to move into one spot." Ur thought, examine the spots where the Lightning Knight was damage, with as it was suddenly only a small amount of its chest left, as its arms, legs, lower body and helmet was destroyed, as the chest was floating in the air, with its helmet slowly regenerating.
With that, Ur stopped her attack, and then created a single large spear of ice.
"Ice-Make: Frost Spear!" Ur said, before throwing it at the Lightning Knight, striking it in the chest!
However, the Lightning Knight was faster, as it had moved its sphere to its helmet as it was now completely regenerations. But before it could even regenerate its neck, another, smaller ice spear came from behind, and struck it in the back of its head!
Soon enough, more ice spears came at different direction, hitting several spots of the Lightning Knight´s helmet, as they all came from the ice mist.
Ur smirked at her work. "Using the mist of ice to be distracting it, and then use it to attack in different directions at once, with it thinking my Frost Spear was the move I was gonna finish it with." Ur thought.
"And with its space limited, and unable to grow due to the rapid shots, it should be able to end it right about..." Ur said, and one final spear of ice struck the helmet, this time striking the sphere that in it.
"...now." Ur thought, and then to walk away, before turning one last time to the remains of the Lightning, which was now disintegrating.
"I hope I gave you good taste of my Ice-Make: Cold Approach. After all, I had only one shot at this, and seeing how this ended, I am sure made a good bet here." Ur said, as the Lightning Knight was completely gone, and Ur turned to Layla, who fought the Water Knight, the Vine Knight and the Fire Knight.
"Dammit, to think another one of my Knights would be taken down!" Shebadus said, watching the scene with frustration.
"No matter, whatever they do, they cannot continue to fight to further." Shebadus said.
Ur came rushing towards the scene in hope of aiding Layla, but suddenly the Fire Knight made a wall of fire to prevent her from reaching Layla, much to her frustration.
"Well, it seems things got more complicated here." Ur said, seeing the Fire Knight rushing with its giant sword of fire at her.
At the same time, Layla saw that Ur had been separated from her with giant wall of flames, but Layla made sure that she didn't lose focus on fighting the Water Knight and the Vine Knight.
The Vine Knight sent its vine to the ground, before then taller, bigger ones appeared from the ground, taking the form of large, carnivorous fangs in the form of Flytraps.
The fanged plant beasts went to charge their fangs at her, who dodged them before they could bite her.
As more came towards her, she used her Aile Du Ciel to slice them to pieces, charging towards the Vine Knight. But before she could reach it, the Water Knight has several water tentacles sent towards her. Before they could reach her, she sliced the tentacles coming at her with her swords, as the Vine Knight then took the chance to slice her with its swords.
But before either Layla or any of the two Elemental Knights could do any attacks, the large flame wall suddenly had the Fire Knight burst through, with Ur pushing it through with a large, battering-ram like pole that a large, circular, flat platform on the front.
"Alright, managed to push through with this before it could melt!" Ur said, and then noticed as she was charging towards Layla, the Vine Knight and the Water Knight, with the Water Knight coming up front.
That gave her an idea.
"Layla, come here quickly as possible! I have an idea." Ur said, and as Layla turned to her, as the Fire Knight was coming as well, she got the idea quickly.
Layla had her feet put on the Vine Knight´s face, before then jumping over the Water Knight, which tried to catch, but she managed to cut its arms off, which it quickly generated.
Layla, on the ground, went to run towards Ur, who was pushing the Fire Knight towards her, as the Water Knight was chasing her.
Just when Layla was before the Fire Knight, she went to dive beneath it and Ur, causing the Fire Knight and Water Knight clash into each other!
With the Fire Knight being extinguished by the water, while the Water Knight was evaporated by the fire. With their body dispelled, leaving on the Spheres in the air, Layla and Ur wasted no time in attacking the two Spheres.
Ur slashed one Spheres with an ice sword, while Layla pierced the other with a sword. With the two Spheres destroyed, the two knights were no more.
Layla and Ur then turned to Edolas Bickslow, who was gritting his teeth as the reaming Elemental Knights were the Shadow Knight and the Vine Knight.
"You truly are becoming more and more of a pest here. Do you have any idea how hard it is to make these Spheres?!" Shebadus shouted said, as then the Vine Knight had its arms transformed into multiple vines to form into a pair of huge, before it slammed both of its arms onto the ground.
Ur and Layla were forced to dodged, as the Vine Knight then began to sprout more vines from its back, each having a Flytrap like fang on it, before they all went to towards them.
Ur froze the vines that came right at them, while Layla sliced them to pieces.
The Vine Knight then expended its head upwards, to prevent them from harming the sphere in its chest, and then, several spike like thrones began to energy from its arms and body, which Ur and Layla dodged.
On its neck, more fangs and vine-like tentacles were sent at Ur and Layla, as Layla cut them down with ease, before jumping up and was right the Vine Knight´s head, cutting the neck off.
The Vine Knight´s head tried to have its vines entangle Layla, but was stopped as they were struck by arrow of ice, fired from a ice bow by Ur.
With the head disintegrating, showing only the sphere, which was sliced in half, as the Vine Knight was no more.
Layla landed as Ur stood beside her, with the two looking at Shebadus, who was with his remaining Elemental Knight, the Shadow Knight.
Shebadus´ eyes were shadowed, as he was shaking in anger.
"You truly have pissed me off as of now... I truly thought it never had to come to this, but you now have pushed things too far!" Shebadus said, crossing his arms.
"Because as of now, your actions are to be paid with your lives!" Shebadus said, as his eyes then began to glow red, as then the Shadow Knight he was on, now began to change form, which was now a large mass of shadow, engulfing Shebadus completely.
Layla and Ur jumped back a bit, as they were gonna fight him, with the Shadow Mass then towered above them.
"The Shadow Helmet was the original of the Helmets of Nature, and the only one who can turn in this kind of form. See this as a last resort, and you should be thankful to witness it. Because the only one who managed to push me this far, was none other than Thorson-sama himself." Shebadus said, as he his new form took place.
The Shadow Knight was now three times bigger than it was before, as it was equal to that of a tower. It now had purple, muscular arms, with clawed and hands, as its black armor was now spikier, had purple, skull-like shoulder pads, a purple chest plate, a purple, skull-like helmet with four horns and three, horizontal lines on its face, all having red, glowing eyes. , its lower body was not consisting of several, black tentacles, and its size was now bigger and taller to be of it to the transformed Shadow Knight, as it now had a its enlarged blade purple, many times larger and thicker than it was before and now had smaller, scythe blade beneath it.
Shebadus then emerged from the top of its head, until he was now stomach level, as he spread his arms.
"Behold my ultimate form: Shadow Knight: Dark Executioner!" Shebadus gloated.
Rather than showing any expression of fear or hesitation, both Layla and Ur showed nothing but stoic expressions.
"Now then..." Shebadus said, having his scythe before his face. "Shall we see if you can deal with this?" Shebadus said, preparing to end their lives.
The Dark Executioner then slammed its tentacles on the ground, which Layla and Ur easily dodged as they jumped into the tentacles to then run towards the head, where Shebadus was at.
The Dark Executioner went to slash with its scythe at Ur and Layla, with the latter dodging, while the former created an ice shield to block the blade of the Scythe.
The force and size of the scythe´s blade caused the ice shield to break apart, sending her a bit away, and then grabbed by one of the tentacles, wrapping around her.
But before long, Layla came in, cutting the tentacle off as she freed Ur from it.
"Thanks Layla." Ur said. "Spare the thanks for later. We still need to take him down." Layla, which Ur nodded in agreement.
Then began to jump towards the top of the Dark Executioner, who sent the scythe at them, which they over it. Ur then went grab onto Layla, before then making a chain of ice to attach the blade.
They proceeded to swing towards Shebadus, only for them to be blocked by its giant, left hand.
Layla proceeded to slash it the giant hand, slicing it off, but as she did, a hundred smaller hands emerged from where its left hand was.
The hands began to entangle Ur and Layla, which Ur proceeds to freeze them before shattering them, freeing them both.
Ur and Layla then landed on the shoulders of the giant Dark Executioner, one shoulder for each of them, with Layla pointed her sword while Ur charged at her.
"Oi, oi, oi. Do you think you have the advantage now that you are this close to me?" The blue-haired man said.
"Trust me; if you don't want any trouble, you better give up the key." Layla said. "Oh, you mean this one?" Shebadus said, showing the large key that the two mothers were after. "But before you should, you should a good, better look." Shebadus said, and on the rod of the Key, were a familiar sphere that they just have discovered.
"That's right, I have merged The Dragon Chain Cannon Key, the very thing you need to save your friends from the Lacrima they are imprisoned in. Which is now merged with the Last core of my remaining Knight." Shebadus said, and then saw as that Ur and Layla´s eyes were shadowed, much to his amusement.
"Do you understand? If you take down the sphere, you may have completely defeated me, but that means you need to destroy the key as well. So, if you want to have things handled peacefully, all you need to do is..." Shebadus said, but before he could finish his sentence, something happened that completely shocked.
Ur jumped towards him, and when she was right before him, he froze him completely in a block of ice! Layla jumped up as well, slashing at him multiple times, before she stopped. "Aqua Shock!" Layla said, as the ice broke apart, and Shebadus gained several scars on his chest, and with that, the key that was merged with the Core was destroyed!
The Dark Executioner then began to disintegrate as Shebadus was falling down the ground.
As he landed on the ground, he began to lose consciousness, with Ur and Layla landing on the ground, their backs turned to them.
"You truly... have done it now... now that they Key is destroyed... your friends will never make... I hope you can live with that... do you really think it was worth it in order to defeat me...?" Shebadus said weakly.
Without any words, or turning around, Ur then had Ice-Make in one of her hands, before something appeared that made Shebadus widen his eyes in even more shock than before.
"Risking our friends in beating you? That's funny coming from someone like you." Layla said. "And even with the key destroyed, we can always make more keys for us to use." Ur said, as she now had made a complete ice replica of the Dragon Chain Cannon Key.
Shebadus began to lose coconsciousness, with thoughts going through his mind.
"Is this the limit of where my pride could reach? If so, I'm very sorry, Thorson-sama." Bickslow Shebadus thought before he was knocked out.
At the same time, where Natsu and Mira were fighting Antolt, standing on top of one of the tower-like structures, watching as Mira slashed the stone tentacles that came at her, while Natsu fought the army of the Stone Samurai charging at him.
"This is getting out of hand, both Trevoa and Shebadus have been taken down. It truly pains me that we have been pushed this way." Antolt thought.
(Play Bleach Ost Treachery here)
"But that won't matter! I shall make sure to take down these ingrates before I handle the rest of the enemies!" Antolt thought, raising his sword in the air. "And now that they have pushed us this far, I shall make sure to finish them with my ultimate technique!" Antolt thought, as then his sword fused with his left arm began to glow again.
"Mira, be careful! That guy must be planning on doing something big!" Natsu said, as he kicked another stone samurai to pieces. "Whatever it is, we must take him down now!" Mira said, as she slashed several stone tentacles coming at them.
Suddenly, the ground beneath began to move, as the stone samurai broke to pieces without Natsu touching them, and the stone tentacles around Mira went back to the ground.
The ground beneath them began to move as they were forced to jump away, and landed on one of the towers instead. But then, as soon the landed on them, the towers began to move as well, forced Mira to fly upwards, while Natsu off to one tower to another, as all towers began to shake and move beneath him.
He was eventually forced to make another of pair of dark wings using his Dark-Make, as he was flying in the air.
The stone came from the buildings and the structures that were generated earlier, as the rest the buildings formed a ring of structures, around the largest building, which were left off. It then began to surround Antolt, forming a sphere around. The sphere then became jet black in color, before grew bigger and bigger, which then began to change form as well.
It gained a second, large body, which was round like the one before, but twice as big. It gained eight, gigantic, pillar like legs that landed on the ground, and was felt through the entire E-Zone.
It gained eight, red eyes on the smaller sphere, before then grows a pair of fangs.
Natsu and Mira saw that before them, was a gigantic, spider-golem, black in colour as its red eyes stared at them. Each of its legs was big enough to easily crush a house, and as its fangs opened, showed Antolt, whose lower body was merged with it.
"You truly have done it now. You have yourself to blame for that." Antolt said, as the blade of his Command Word now glow red.
"Because of your actions, you are now gonna witness the ultimate form of Command Word: Anzen Domain: Shikkoku Kumonokami!" Antolt said, as it then raised two of its legs from the ground, which then grows spikes on them, before proceeding to stomp Mira and Natsu.
(End Bleach ost here)
But they easily dodged incoming legs, and Mira then began to charge a dark beam at the leg that missed her.
"You may have gained a extra boost in power and size, but at the cost of speed and agility!" Mira said, as she then fired the dark beam at the leg, but to her shock, it didn't make much damage as she thought it would, leaving only marks on it.
"What the...?" Mira said, and Antolt had a smirk of amusement on his face. "Well, don't tell me you didn't think that the stone only changed its color? Think again! I changed they were material to make it a fabric harder than steel!" Antolt said, as he then began to smack with it the legs once again at Mira.
However, before it could strike her, Natsu came in the way and took her out of the way just in time.
"I got you!" Natsu said. "Thanks Natsu." Mira said, before he let her go so, as they stood flying in the air, looking up to their enemy, Antolt.
"If we cannot damage the body, then we should go straight for the head!" Natsu said, as he then went fly towards him. "Natsu, wait!" Mira said, but it then deaf on his ears.
He charged his sword in dark smoke, preparing to slash Antolt, however, the fangs quickly closed as before Natsu could reach him.
Its eyes then began to fire beams of red light at Natsu, how dodged the beams, distracting him enough to for another one of the legs to come.
But Mira managed to push him out of the way before it could strike.
"Thanks Mira. Sorry that I got hasty." Natsu said. "No worries, now we´re even." Natsu said, before turning back to the giant black spider golem, that was containing Antolt.
"But with him in that thing, it would be sure hard for us to attack." Natsu said. "Then I need to go on all out on this!" Natsu said, before then charging with energy, and then was in his Take Over: Satan Soul: Lullaby.
"Let's see how he handles this then!" Natsu said, flying towards him, with Mira following him. "I shall take you as back up!" Mira said.
"Whatever you send at me, there you to take me down!" Antolt said through the giant spider´s face, before he then began to fire several beams from its eyes, which Mira and Natsu dodged.
As another of the spider legs came at him, Natsu took a deep breath and fired a powerful beam of dark purple notes at it.
"Lullaby´s Death Roar!" Natsu said, as the beam of notes came out of his mouth, and destroyed the giant spider leg, much to Antolts shock.
"What?! No one besides Thorson has been able to destroy the harder than steel material of Kumonokami! Just what kind of Magic do Earthlanders use?!" Antolt said, before then Mira sent a barrage of dark beams at him.
The beams barely made a dent on the eyes, before it kept him distracted from Natsu preparing his next attack.
"Lullaby´s Note First!" Natsu said, as his fist was covered with dark purple notes. But before he could reach his attack at him, several black tentacles emerge from the destroyed part of the spider leg, ensnaring Natsu in a ball of them.
But before even a second went by, a light came through, exploded and then freed Natsu, charging towards him.
He prepared his next attack, as Antotl then fired more beams from his eyes, which Natsu and Mira dodged, until Mira was struck by one of them!
"MIRA!" Natsu screamed, before he was struck by one of the legs, which sent him flying to one of the buildings with a crash.
"Natsu!" Mira screamed, before then several black tentacles came and ensnared her, keeping her in check.
Out of the building, Natsu came flying towards him, but before he could reach him, more tentacles came from another one of its broken legs, ensnaring him. As Natsu was ensnared, he returned to his default mode.
"Don't even think about moving. If you do, her life will come to an end." Antolt said, before then spider´s fang opened, and a platform was extended towards Mira.
Antolt rose from the spot he had been previously, before walking towards Mira, and had the blade of the Command Word.
"But as enemies to Thorson-sama, I shall make sure to finish the job, starting with her." Antolt said, much to Natsu´s horror.
"Stop! Don't you lay a hand on her!" Natsu screamed. "You are a fool. Everyone knows that in battle death is always seen as coming." Antolt said, the blade of the Command Word at Mira´s neck.
"It was because that you were the strength you had on the wrong motivation. Had you followed our motivation, this would have never happened." Antolt said, as he then prepared to kill Mira.
"You really have no mercy, Freed." Mira said. "Call it mercy or whatever. As an enemy, the best mercy they know is the end of their life." Antolt said, raising his sword.
But before he could strike him, another Natsu, in his Take Over: Satan Soul: Lullaby, came into the scene, and slashed Antolts left arm off.
"WHAT?!" A shocked Antolt said, before turning to the Natsu that was ensnared. "Impossible, how can there be..." Antolt said, and Natsu went to answer.
"In case you didn't know, I have a move I came up with back at my home. Dark-Make: Clone." Natsu said, before kicking Antolt away.
Antolt severed left arm fell down on the ground, as it had the Command Word on it. Antolt held the stump were his left arm was, as Natsu freed Mira from the tentacles by breaking them to pieces.
"Sorry if I made you worried for a bit." Natsu said. "Knowing you, you aren't that kind of guy." Mira said, before she and Natsu turned to Antolt.
"So back then, when you crashed into the building, you made that Dark-Make: Clone thingie?" Antolt said, as then Natsu and Mira began to charge at him.
"And know who else is gonna be crashing?" Natsu said, with his fist covered with dark purple notes.
"You! Lullaby´s Note Fist!" Natsu said, punching Antolt right in the chest, sending him crashing into the mouth of the giant spider golem!
Antolt broke though, before then coming out of the behind of the giant spider, break crashing onto the ground, leaving a long trail behind him.
The giant spider golem began to break apart into pieces, which Natsu and Mira flied off to, and then flied towards Antolt, who was bruised and battered.
Both Natsu and Mira undid their respective Satan Soul forms as they stood before Antolt.
"You were one heck of a tough opponent, I give you that." Natsu said. "But there's one thing that I don't understand." Mira said.
"Your Command Word had the power to change the entire area. Why didn't you use it to kill us in the first place?" Mira asked. "I agree. It's strange that have such a powerful item, but didn't use it that way." Natsu said.
Antolt took a deep breath, before speaking.
"The Golden Mjölnir is a fighting squad. If we had killed you just like that, then what honor would we have? Betraying Faust is something we can do, even our comrades but not going down without a fight is completely unacceptable." Antolt said.
"We have be the ones to betray our own comrades, but we aren't that kind of people to kill them just like that. If we want to kill our enemies, we do it in a fight." Antolt said.
"And we rather lose like this, than win with such cheating abilities." Antolt said.
"I see. But whatever logic you guys have, it won't stop us from saving our friends." Natsu said, turning around to leave with Mira.
"We´re done here. We cannot waste any more time here." Natsu said, as he and Mira left the scene.
Antolt, who was covered with injuries, and missing his left arm, looked up in the sky.
"So this is how long we, the Golden Mjölnir, can serve you, Thorson-sama? But then, knowing you, something like this won't be able to stop you. After all, your ambition knows no limits." Antolt said.
As Freed Antolt was defeated, Natsu and Mira met up with the others, being Ur, Layla, Lucy, Yukino, Gil and Happy.
"I guess you had a pretty tough time as well?" Natsu said.
"Yeah, we managed that take down that Evergreen clone, and save Coco as well." Lucy said, as she was carrying Coco.
"Gil and I managed to take down the large Black Legion. As of now, he is knocked out, but we should make a move before he wakes up." Happy said.
"Alright, then how about you two? Did things go well?" Mira asked.
"It sure did." Ur said, creating an ice replica of the Dragon Chain Cannon Key. "We may have destroyed the original key, but with Ur´s Ice-Make, we can sure create as many as we want." Layla said. "And with the original destroyed, and only us being able to create a new key, we have an advantage here." Ur said.
"I know you wouldn't do such a thing without a reason." Natsu said. "Then, without any further words, let's go!" Happy said, which the others agreed, as they proceeded to leave the E-Zone.
As they were the edge of the large circle, and with a opening to exit the E-Zone, Ur made a bridge of ice to them to walk on, as they left in their quest of saving their friends from a gruesome fate.
"Hang on everyone, we´re coming!" Natsu thought, with them running in the hallway.
