Fairy Tail: All Magic Converges in One Body

Shouts of battle, explosions, and the deafening roar of magic and spells clashing were deafening.

In the center of the battlefield, Maldo, the ruler of the Gates of Hades, the great demon known as the one closest to the strongest demon "END," appeared in a sorry state.

He had multiple wounds on his body, and his face no longer held the initial composure and cold-bloodedness. Faced with the fierce onslaught of Fairy Tail's elite troops, even unleashing all his magical power and activating his demonic transformation, he was unable to withstand it.

"Thunder Dragon Halberd!"

Laxus's thick lightning spear tore through the air. Maldo hurriedly dodged to the side, the lightning spear grazing his shoulder and exploding into a scorched crater in the ground.

Before he could catch his breath, Erza had already donned the Heavenly Wheel Armor, wielding the "Breaking Army" in her left hand and the "Greedy Wolf" in her right, her two Dragon Slayer weapons creating a dense barrage of blades that blocked all his escape routes.

The blades clashed against the hastily constructed magical barrier, producing a piercing screech and sparks flying. The instant the barrier cracked, a lithe demonic figure darted forward.

"Soul Exterminator!"

Mirajane, having received the soul of Satan, delivered a powerful punch that slammed into the barrier, shattering the already crumbling defenses completely.

Maldo grunted and was forced back several steps by the immense force.

"It's not over yet! Fire Dragon's Iron Fist!"

"Ice Forged - Ice Blade!"

Natsu and Gray stood on the left and right, respectively, their ice and fire clashing.

Mardo gathered magical power in both hands, one hand igniting with purple evil light to resist Natsu's flames, while the other hand sprouted black vines that wrapped around Gray's ice sword.

As the saying goes, two fists can't beat four hands.

Moreover, Maldo has countless opponents to contend with.

After forcibly pushing back the ice and fire duo, Gajeel's Iron Dragon Sword and Elfman's Beast King Fist struck again.

Under Cana's control, the Blue-Eyes White Dragon and the Red-Eyes Black Dragon unleashed powerful dragon breaths in mid-air. The Sagittarius Celestial Spirit, summoned by Lucy, also fired arrows.

Because there were too many people involved in the brawl, Levy and Juvia couldn't even squeeze in and could only cast spells from the outside to get some assists.

Fried even had time to work with Mystergan to write "spellbooks" to restrict some of Maldo's actions.

"hateful......"

Faced with a dazzling array of attacks, Maldo gritted his teeth and persevered, the ground beneath his feet crumbling inch by inch.

These despicable humans actually forced him, the King of the Underworld, to this extent. They deserve to die!

"Absorb the Netherworld Tree!"

With a roar from Maldo, his 'Absorption Spell' and 'Plant Spell' erupted simultaneously, and a giant demon tree capable of absorbing magic rose from the ground, greedily absorbing the incoming magic.

In just a short moment, the Netherworld Tree absorbed an excessive amount of magic power, turning into a bomb that could explode at any moment.

But the next second... Gildarts made his move.

The Underworld Tree, along with its internal magic and spell power, was instantly decomposed into a massive amount of magical particles that scattered into the air under the powerful and merciless super magic attack "Crush".

Chapter 244 Stealing Kills

"Everyone, charge!"

Gildarts' booming voice was like a battle horn. Everyone held back, unleashing their full magical power.

Erza's Dragon Slayer Twin Blades, imbued with the brilliance of the Holy Dragon Slayer, unleashed two incomparably sharp blade energies.

"Thunder Dragon Crushing Fist!" Laxus's fist was wrapped in raging lightning snakes.

Mirajane unleashed the concentrated dark magic in her palms, "Demon Burst!"

"Dragon Slayer Secret Technique: Shiranui Type - Crimson Phoenix Sword!"

"Ice and water combine to create hailstorm!"

"..."

Various streams of magic converged, transforming into a destructive energy storm that completely engulfed Maldo's figure.

boom--!!!

The deafening explosion leveled half a forest clearing, sending plumes of smoke and dust billowing into the sky.

As the smoke and dust slowly dissipated, a huge, charred crater was revealed in the center. Maldo knelt at the bottom of the crater, his body covered in charred wounds, blood trickling from the corner of his mouth, and his breath weak.

Despite enduring so many attacks, he was still able to keep his body upright. Hope, who was watching silently, would call Maldo the King of Endurance.

Completely unaware that he had acquired a new title, Maldo coughed violently, raised his head, and stared intently at the Fairy Tail members who were gradually approaching him with his purple eyes filled with resentment and malice.

"Cough... I never thought... I would be forced to this point..." he said hoarsely, his voice filled with disbelief.

The Fairy Tail members formed a semi-circle. Although they were all injured and exhausted from the continuous battles, their eyes remained sharp as they locked onto the enemy at the bottom of the pit.

"It's over, Hades."

Erza pointed her knife at Maldo, her voice icy, "Your plan to attack Tenrou Island has completely failed."

Maldo suddenly chuckled softly, the laughter growing louder and more manic. "The end? No, this is just the beginning! Hadesmon! Descend!"

A powerful surge of magical energy emanated from him and shot towards the sky, but what responded to Maldo was... a massive amount of monster flesh falling from a height of ten thousand meters.

One of his trump cards, the gigantic Hades Beast, was already dead beyond any doubt.

Like monster carcasses raining down on the distant sea, two figures descended from the sky, stepping on meteoric light, and landed steadily not far from Maldo.

It was Silver and Gerald who completely destroyed the headquarters of Tartaros.

The moment Maldo saw the two, he knew they had broken free from the control of the undead demons; Silver and Gerald, wielding the "Ice Annihilation," had joined forces...

This means that the Nine Ghost Gates and the Core of Hell are finished.

"You two bastards..." Maldo's voice trembled with anger.

Silver ignored him and instead met Gray's gaze with unspoken understanding. Although ten years had passed, blood ties were a strange thing.

At just one glance, the father and son, separated by life and death, recognized each other.

To Hope's disappointment, Gray had already used up his daily dose of tears after seeing Ullu. Besides, with so many people around, Gray wouldn't cry for the sake of his pride.

The father and son simply nodded to each other before turning their attention to Maldo.

"You...you...damned humans!"

Blood trickled from the corner of Maldo's mouth, his eyes blazed with murderous intent, and his magical power began to compress wildly.

Seeing that the enemy was about to unleash some kind of powerful spell, how could the group give him a chance to counterattack? But Maldo completed the spell faster than anyone could have imagined.

"Feel honored, for this is a spell I created to fulfill Lord Zeref's long-cherished wish!"

"Ultimate Spell: Memory of Death!"

It released a large amount of dark purple smoke, which contained many ghost-like entities. These were not ghosts, but rather the lingering resentment of humans that Maldo had slaughtered.

The moment it is touched, the spirit will be dragged into nothingness.

The demons were tools Zeref created for his own suicide, but even he himself couldn't break free from his immortality, so what could the demons do?

So, over these 400 years, in order to fulfill the creator's wish, Maldo took a different approach and developed a terrifying spell that could completely destroy the mind of the target.

The wide-ranging attacks seemed endless. Gildarts and the others were barely able to keep their composure and cope, but weaker companions like Lucy and Levy couldn't withstand them.

Even Silver, as a demon slayer, could not protect everyone from this massive spell.

Just then, a lazy voice came from the edge of the battlefield, "So many people fighting one and still haven't taken him down, looks like we need to step up our efforts."

Hope and Makarov appeared at the edge of the woods.

Because of Mirajane, everyone already knew that Hope had come to Sirius Island, so his appearance was not surprising.

Hope glanced at the battlefield, grinned, and said, "Gentlemen, I didn't get enough of beating Hades earlier, so how about... you let me have this guy?"

Makarov looked at Maldo, who was still fighting tenaciously under the siege. Although he wasn't worried, he still habitually reminded him, "Be careful. His spells are very strange. Don't be careless."

"Strange?"

Hope twisted his neck, and magnetic energy began to flow through his body, emitting a faint hum. "In the face of absolute power, no amount of weirdness will work."

With one step, the ground cracked, and his figure shot towards the center of the battlefield like a cannonball—

"I'm definitely going to take this head!"

"Magnetic field rotation! Eighty thousand horsepower!"

"Whale-Slaying Overlord Fist! Mouth!"

The phantom of the giant whale reappeared, sweeping away the ultimate spell that had been troubling everyone. Maldo suddenly turned his head and saw a figure tearing through the air at an astonishing speed, rapidly enlarging in his field of vision.

Before he could even fully condense his magical power, he was filled with damage by Hope's simple and unadorned punch.

"puff--!"

Maldo coughed up a mouthful of blood and flew backward uncontrollably, crashing through seven or eight giant trees before finally stopping at the seaside, carving a deep trench in the ground.

Immediately afterwards... Maldo's body exploded in all directions.

Before the fragments could even scatter, they were crushed into nothingness by the magnetic field.

The entire room fell silent for a moment.

The Fairy Tail members, including Natsu who was always challenging everyone and the arrogant Laxus, all instinctively widened their eyes.

I know Hope is strong, but this is... way too direct!

We'd been grinding the boss together for ages and still hadn't beaten it, and this guy just came along and annihilated us with a single punch, leaving not even ashes behind. What a frustrating experience...

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Hope waved his hand, having reduced the power by 20,000 horsepower to avoid a repeat of the previous incident where he destroyed Hades.

Unexpectedly, it was still crushed by Hades.

This is a bit awkward.

Chapter 245 The New S-Rank

With Mardo's scenes wrapped up, the two major dark guilds' plan to invade Tenrou Island completely failed. Not only did they fail to obtain Zeref and destroy Fairy Tail, they also lost everything.

"That's it?!"

Natsu was the first to jump up, pointing at Hope and shouting, "Hey! That guy is my opponent!"
