Kebula stumbled to his feet.
"No... how can I fall here... I still need to prove... that I am the strongest Dragon Slayer Mage... I still need to defeat that... Moen... and thoroughly humiliate that piece of trash, traitor, Jellal..."
Kobra mumbled something under his breath, but he could barely stand and was swaying unsteadily. Kobra never expected that the first opponent he had chosen would be so powerful.
"You can't even beat me, yet you dare to say such things? You've got quite the ambition, haven't you?"
Natsu grinned and gave Cobra a thumbs-up in praise.
Hearing the "poison dragon's" boastful words, Natsu wasn't angry at all; on the contrary, he thought the guy was quite courageous.
Becoming the strongest "Dragon Slayer Mage" requires passing Laxus's challenge and defeating Moen, which is practically a pipe dream.
Natsu is currently in a clear-headed state. He was beaten up by Moen a few days ago, and he has a very clear understanding of himself. There is still some time before his next episode.
"Crunch!"
Kobra gritted his teeth so hard they made a grinding sound. The way he looked at Natsu was as if he were the one who could breathe fire, and the anger in his eyes seemed to want to set Natsu on fire.
Natsu's sincere praise sounded like mockery to him, after all, this "fire dragon" wasn't even an "S-class mage" from "Fairy Tail"! He was at least a level below that Moen!
At this moment, he no longer believed his "divine ears." He only felt that Natsu was really good at pretending, and even pretended to be genuinely praising him.
This is what stubborn and obstinate people are like. They only want to see what they want to see and hear what they want to hear. Even when the truth is right in front of them, they can find all sorts of reasons to convince themselves that the truth in front of them is a scam.
"Natsu the Fire Dragon, huh? You're not badly known. I'll have a go at you!"
Lisa couldn't stand it any longer. He quickly jumped forward and stood in front of the injured Cobra, and then casually pulled Cobra's pet snake, Chuberios, back a little.
Qubelios returned to Kebra's side in a miserable state. The two exchanged a glance, and for a moment, the atmosphere was bleak and desolate.
"And who are you?"
Looking at Liza, who was dressed in a racing uniform, Natsu asked, his eyes blazing with fighting spirit, showing no fear whatsoever.
So what if there are four people on the other side? Do they think Fairy Tail has no one on their side?
At this moment, reinforcements from Fairy Tail also arrived.
Gray, Freed, Lucy, Emerald, Erza, and Mirajane rushed over to support Natsu the moment the battle broke out. They were all members of an elite squad and were not far away, so they didn't waste any time.
Just as Moen had predicted, these Oración Seis members would not stand for it and would not slink away. Instead, they would fight them. All Moen had to do was wait and lure these guys hiding in the shadows out.
"There are three people left. How are we, the six of us, going to divide it?"
Looking at the remaining three, Dark Night, Angel, and Hote, Gray asked, meaning he also wanted to face one opponent each, but that would mean three of them would be left without a bye.
"I!"
"I!"
Lucy and Emerald both raised their hands and shook their heads, immediately giving up the opportunity.
This is a battlefield, so Erza and Mirajane will definitely have to take action because they are both strong. Gray is also highly motivated and full of fighting spirit, so it's obvious who should go up among the six.
"I want to choose one!"
Freed was not to be outdone. He also wanted to fight one of the "Oración Seis" and make a name for the "Thunder Gods". He looked at Natsu, who had already defeated one opponent. Now it was time to give up this one!
"ha?"
Natsu's eyes widened in confusion. Why should he give up the person who approached him? He wouldn't.
In fact, it wasn't just the elite squad present at this moment; many of the Fairy Tail crew members had already gathered.
Those subordinate dark guilds were really no match for them. The Fairy Tail crew members were putting a lot of effort into this battlefield. Gajeel, Juvia, Abrams, and Biggles were all nearby, ready to take over at any time.
It's fair to say that the members of "Fairy Tail" are truly confident, and no one is afraid of the infamous reputation of the "Oracion Generals".
"You actually got selected?"
Gray, Lucy, and the others' actions and words clearly provoked the Oración Seis. Angel was so angry that she laughed. She took out the key and waved her hand, opening the "Scorpio Gate".
"Come forth! Scorpio Celestial Spirit Scapio!"
As magic surged, Scorpio appeared. He was a stylish man dressed in a hip-hop style, with half red and half white hair, wearing a red sleeveless coat, bandages on his arms and legs, and a huge steel scorpion tail behind him, the tip of which looked like a cannon muzzle.
Scapio made his entrance with a rather odd pose, which Moen commented was "not flamboyant enough, not as..."
oJo stands."
"Boss, what did you call me for?"
Scapio asked, his tone somewhat impatient, because he was on a date. No one would be happy to be called out to work during a date, but since he had signed a contract, Scapio had no choice but to leave his girlfriend behind and come over in the spirit of the contract.
"Scarpio, take them down!"
"6
Angel gave the order: the Scorpio celestial spirit was quite powerful in attack, making it her main offensive celestial spirit. The other celestial spirit, the Aries celestial spirit, was mainly for defense. She didn't have many celestial spirits, but the combination of celestial spirits was quite good.
"Yes, Boss!"
Scarpio agreed and was about to launch an attack.
"I am the one who connects the path to the Protoss Realm; you, answer my call and pass through the gate. Open, Gate of Aquarius!"
In response, Lucy directly opened the "Aquarius Gate" and summoned the Aquarius Celestial Spirit Aquaria. She was summoned by the water created by Juvia's battle around her. Water is a prerequisite for summoning Aquarius, but it doesn't matter if there isn't much water.
"Idiot Lucy! Why did you summon me?!"
As soon as Aquarius appeared, she immediately started talking in a fit of anger. She was clearly furious because she had just been on a date with her boyfriend, but he was suddenly called to work!
Being left out by someone naturally made Aquarius unhappy. Although it wasn't entirely incomprehensible, Aquarius was still very angry that Lucy had suffered an undeserved misfortune.
"Aquarius, look over there."
Lucy chuckled and pointed to Scorpio, the Scorpio celestial spirit, on the other side.
Aquarius turned around and, upon seeing Scarpio, her expression changed instantly, becoming gentle instead of fierce.
"Scarpio? What are you doing here?"
Aquarius asked gently, which made Lucy's eyes widen in surprise, and she couldn't help but wonder if she had summoned a fake Aquarius.
There's no way around it, the difference in treatment is just too great. When facing her, and when facing others, Aquarius always acts like a sadist, where is there any trace of the gentleness she has now?
"Aquarius, it's... work."
Scapio was quite surprised to see Aquarius summoned by Lucy. He scratched his head, smiled and replied, then walked directly towards Aquarius, showing no desire to fight.
"Let's go back together and continue our date."
Scapio reached out his hand as he approached Aquarius. He had thought it through clearly; taking Aquarius back wouldn't be a breach of the contract, since he had directly taken away a major force of the enemy. Aquarius's strength was undeniable; she was undoubtedly the strongest in terms of area-of-effect damage among the "Zodiac Zodiac Spirits."
"Okay, I'll do as you say."
Aquarius laughed too. She immediately understood Scarpio's thoughts and even why Lucy had summoned her.
Lucy knew about Scapio's situation, of course. Aquarius was always very gentle in front of Scapio, but she also had resentment and jealousy. She would sometimes complain to Lucy about these things. Their relationship was indeed very complicated.
Aquarius glanced at Lucy with a warning in her eyes, warning Lucy not to say anything carelessly, or she would kill Lucy.
Scarpio also looked at Lucy, matching the girl with the little contractor that Aquarius often mentioned. In fact, Aquarius cared a lot about and cherished her relationship with Lucy, but she expressed it in a different way.
Both the "Aquarius Gate" and the "Scorpio Gate" opened, and the celestial couple left together, leaving the two celestial mages behind.

'
This amazing maneuver caught everyone off guard, but Lucy had already achieved her goal. Even without the Aquarius Celestial Spirit, she still had several powerful Celestial Spirits, and she herself was also capable of fighting. But what about her opponent? Could they also possess several Golden Keys?
"I never expected that there would be a Celestial Spirit Mage among the Oración Seis."
Emerald looked surprised. How could a "traditional Celestial Spirit Mage" become a "Six Seals General"? If they were all at this level, then the title of "Six Seals General" really wasn't very prestigious.
After all, Lucy has six keys to the Zodiac. Even if the other six are in the hands of this "Oracle Seis", they are just so-so and definitely not as strong as Lucy.
Emerald didn't believe anyone could compare to Lucy in terms of talent for "traditional Celestial Magic," after all, Lucy could summon the "Celestial King."
Moreover, among the zodiac spirits, the Leo, with the strongest individual strength, and the Aquarius, with the strongest area-of-effect attack, are both in Lucy's hands. How could this "Oracles" possibly defeat Lucy?
"Come forth, Leo, the Leo Celestial Spirit!"
Lucy, with a "plan in motion" expression, immediately summoned Leo Leo. She wanted to see how this "Oración Seis" would deal with it.
"Come forth, Aries Celestial Aries!"
Angel's expression was grim, but she was not yet out of the woods. Most importantly, she still had a killer move she hadn't used yet, a move specifically designed to target Celestial Spirit Mages.
"Buzz!"
A surge of magical energy appeared, and a figure materialized.
Aries, a familiar name, is the Aries Celestial Spirit, one of the twelve zodiac signs. Of course, the main reason why everyone in "Fairy Tail" feels familiar with her is because of her previous contractor, the Leo Celestial Spirit Leo.
Their story is intertwined. Everyone already knew when Kallen died. Although they didn't know at the time that Rocky was Leo, they remembered the story even more vividly after they found out. Seeing Aries here really surprised everyone.
But upon closer reflection, it doesn't seem so strange. Karen Lilika was killed and the Celestial Key was stolen. The person who killed her was certainly not a kind soul; he was one of the Oración Seis. It seems quite reasonable.
"Aries!"
Leo was summoned and was clearly the most surprised when he saw Aries; he had not expected this at all.
Although they can see each other in the Celestial Realm, they cannot reveal their contractor status due to the contract. Even Scapio and Aquarius, who are a couple, are unaware of each other's situation, let alone the extremely introverted Aries.
Aries has pink hair with a pair of small sheep horns on her head. She wears a white cotton bodycon dress that reveals her cleavage, and her face shows a shy expression, making her look like an innocent young girl.
"Leo...I'm sorry..."
"
Upon seeing Leo, Aries's first words were an apology.
The girl's face was full of apology. Now that everyone had met in the real world and both contractors were present, there was no need to keep things to herself anymore.
Why are you apologizing? The person who should be apologizing is...
'
Hearing Aries say "I'm sorry," Leo became somewhat agitated, but he didn't finish his sentence. After all, she was already dead, and there was no point in saying anything more. He turned his gaze to Angel.
"You're the one who killed Karen?"
Looking at Angel, Leo asked with a serious expression.
When Leo asked him the question, Angel was taken aback for a moment, but then immediately understood.
"Kallen? Oh~ you wouldn't be talking about Aries's previous contractor, would you? The one who couldn't even summon a Celestial Spirit?"
Angel smiled, as if she were talking about a pitiful creature. In fact, Karen had left a deep impression on her, after all, Karen had given her a key to the Zodiac, which she obtained without much effort.
At first, she was quite surprised. Karen was clearly a Celestial Spirit Mage, but she couldn't summon a Celestial Spirit. Later, she realized that she had failed to "double open the gate".
"It really was you..."
""
Angel's answer made Leo clench his fists. The murderer who killed Kallen... had finally appeared. Although the mistake could not be undone, he could at least avenge Kallen.
"He's just a useless Celestial Spirit Mage who can't even do a double door."
Angel continued her sharp critique, which was a bit too harsh. Emerald and Lucy exchanged a glance. Luckily, they could now "double-open the door," otherwise they would have been dragged in with the insults.
"Prepare to die!"
Enraged, Leo charged forward, aiming straight for Angel.
Regardless of whether Karen was a waste or a genius, she is now dead and has paid a heavy price for her actions. As one of the factors that caused Karen's death, Leo naturally cannot tolerate the murderer spouting nonsense here.
