"Wait, in your eyes, is the position of Fairy Tail's Guild Master really that terrifying?!"
Makarov looked speechlessly at the group of brats in the guild and roared.
"What else could it be?!"
After the old master finished speaking, Eden and the others all chimed in, their faces filled with disgust, as if the position of Fairy Tail's Guild Master was a hot potato.
"..."
After a long silence, the old master roared angrily, "This is your last chance. If you miss this opportunity, I'll really hold this position until I die and never give you another chance."
"We couldn't ask for more!" Natsu, Gray, Erza, and Mirajane said in unison.
"Hey, hey, hey."
"Laxus, aren't you going to take this last chance to fight for it a little?!"
"I remember you once started a civil war just to take the position of Fairy Tail's Guild Master, didn't you?!"
Eden directly exposed Laxus's dark history and laughed.
"..."
Laxus was silent for a moment. He looked at Eden and lowered his voice, "Let's not talk about the past. I already know I was wrong."
"Hahahaha."
Laxus's words caused everyone to burst into laughter.
"..."
Laxus was suffering internally, a suffering he couldn't voice.
Laxus thought: "I was just too arrogant when I was young, that's why I became such a joke."
"Besides Laxus, do none of the rest of you have any desire to be the master?!" Makarov asked.
"No, no, no!"
"Actually, I don't have that desire either," Laxus said, shaking his head.
"If that's the case, then the next master can only be Laxus," Makarov said weakly.
"Wait, what?!"
"What do you mean, I'll be the one?" Laxus's eye twitched continuously as he spoke helplessly.
"In that case, all in favor of making Laxus the next Guild Master of Fairy Tail, raise your hands!" Makarov said, ignoring him.
"I raise my hand."
The moment Makarov's voice fell, all the Fairy Tail members present raised their hands.
"No, not a chance."
"Don't think you can fool me."
"I will absolutely not be the next master," Laxus said, shaking his head.
"Damn, it didn't work?!" the crowd said helplessly.
"How could you possibly fool me with that?!" Laxus roared.
"Then let's try another way. Let's play a game."
"The game is called 'Everyone Decides Who the Next Master Will Be'," Makarov said with a smile.
"I nominate Laxus," the old master continued to set up his grandson.
"I agree!"
As the old master finished speaking, everyone raised their hands.
"Seriously, do you guys find this funny?" Laxus retorted.
"It's alright, we think it's quite funny," the other members of Fairy Tail laughed in response.
"For something to be a joke, everyone has to find it funny," Laxus corrected their thinking.
"Why should we care if you find it funny?! As long as we're laughing, that's enough!" the fun-loving members of Fairy Tail said in unison.
"..."
Laxus gradually became withdrawn.
"Hahahaha."
As Laxus stopped smiling, smiles appeared on the faces of the other members of Fairy Tail.
"Alright, since the new Guild Master of Fairy Tail has been decided, let the party begin!" Makarov laughed heartily.
"OH!!!"
In an instant, the entire gathering became incredibly lively.
"Speaking of which, Borsalino, you've finally come back for a visit. Are you really not going to see your good friend Sakazuki?!"
During the party, Eden seemed to remember something and asked the man known as Kizaru beside him.
"Oh?!"
"That's true."
"It's been a long time since I've seen Sakazuki, Vegapunk, Kuma, Sentomaru, or Bonney," Borsalino said with a sigh, as if recalling something.
"Ten years have passed. Both Sentomaru and Bonney must be all grown up now."
Thinking this, Borsalino genuinely had the thought of going to see his old friends.
"Speaking of which, Kuzan, don't you want to get revenge on Sakazuki?!"
Just then, Eden looked at Kuzan and smiled. "With your current strength, you should be able to defeat Sakazuki easily, right?!"
"Forget it."
"If I went to get revenge on Sakazuki, it would just make me seem petty," Kuzan said, shaking his head.
With Kuzan's current strength, he could probably defeat Sakazuki in an instant.
But that seemed far too boring to him, so he wouldn't do it.
"Gurararara."
"By the way, why isn't my grandson Luffy back?!"
At that moment, Garp seemed to remember something and asked loudly.
"Luffy is on his own adventure," Eden replied.
"That's a real shame."
"I was hoping to see if that kid Luffy has gotten any stronger," Garp said, shaking his head with a helpless sigh.
"You're just itching for a fight and want to take it out on your grandson, aren't you?!"
The members of Fairy Tail immediately saw through Garp's intentions and called him out.
"You found me out?"
Garp was stunned for a moment, then immediately laughed awkwardly.
"I don't care!"
"Since you've already found me out, let's have a big fight!"
As Garp spoke, an astonishing Haki erupted from his body.
But that wasn't all. Garp then activated the Eight Inner Gates he had learned from Might Guy. At the same time, blue flames erupted from his body—the power of Marco's Phoenix Fruit, which Vegapunk had replicated and given to Garp.
"Wait, Garp, you ate a Devil Fruit too?"
Whitebeard Edward Newgate asked, looking at Garp who was covered in flames.
"When was a fruit ever such an inconvenience?!"
"I'll eat one if I want to!"
Garp looked at Newgate and laughed heartily.
"You rascal."
Newgate was impressed. He glared at Garp and sneered, "What an unprincipled fellow."
"Nonsense!"
"I never said I wouldn't eat a Devil Fruit."
"Anyway, let's get this party started!!!"
Garp launched the first attack, rushing in front of Newgate and throwing a punch.
Pfft.
Old White spat out a mouthful of blood and died on the spot.
"POPS!!!"
For a moment, the members of the Whitebeard Pirates looked at their dead father and let out unwilling roars.
Voom!
However, it wasn't over. The supposedly dead Whitebeard suddenly moved. His soul was pulled out by Eden and appeared before everyone in his prime.
Not only that, but the soul version of Whitebeard was no longer limited by stamina; he could use the power of the Quake-Quake Fruit without any restrictions.
"Gurararara!"
Whitebeard laughed heartily, concentrating the power of the Quake-Quake Fruit in his hand and smashing it towards Garp.
BOOM!
With a muffled thunder, the entire island began to shake.
"I give up."
"I really just came here to have a good drink with you all. I'm not interested in fighting."
Makarov looked at the fiercely battling Garp and Whitebeard and said speechlessly.
Well, back in the world of Earth Land, Makarov spent his days watching others fight. Now that he was in the One Piece world, he was still watching others fight. Did he come to this world for nothing?!
"Kurararara!"
"Ahahaha!"
Garp and Whitebeard laughed heartily, ignoring Makarov's attempts to stop them.
"My hands are itching too."
At that moment, Natsu looked at the battling Garp and Whitebeard and said excitedly, "I'm all fired up!"
"Natsu, don't cause any more trouble, will you?!"
Makarov looked at Natsu, who was about to join the fight, with beads of cold sweat on his forehead, trying to dissuade him.
"Words are useless!"
"Let's have a good fight!"
Natsu said, his body bursting into flames as he charged towards Garp and Whitebeard.
"Fire Dragon King's Demolition Fist!!"
Natsu let out a furious roar.
Endless flames erupted from within Natsu's body, the terrifying power directly evaporating a large swath of the sea.
"Hey, hey, hey!"
"No matter how you look at it, this is too exaggerated, isn't it?!"
The members of the Whitebeard Pirates looked at the power of Natsu's punch with expressions of disbelief.
At the same time.
Vegapunk observed that Natsu's punch had evaporated the sea surface by a depth of three meters.
This was even more exaggerated than when Imu's Mother Flame activated Uranus, causing the sea to rise by one meter.
"Has human power already surpassed the Ancient Weapons?!"
"Is this the power of the Fairy Tail guild? Is this the power of magic?" Vegapunk lamented.
To this, the other mages from the world of Earth Land replied, "Don't be ridiculous. This is just the power of the Fairy Tail guild. We don't have such strength."
On a certain island.
"Ace, didn't you say you wanted to compete with Natsu?!"
The members of the Whitebeard crew looked at Natsu's exaggerated punch and asked Ace.
"Hahaha."
Ace chuckled lightly. He looked at the evaporating sea and smiled, "I'd die."
"Indeed."
Everyone agreed with Ace's words.
After seeing the power of Natsu's punch, the members of the Whitebeard Pirates had completely extinguished any thoughts of competing with the Fairy Tail guild, as they had before.
There was no doubt that the strength of the Fairy Tail guild and their own was on a completely different level.
"How the hell are we supposed to fight that?" Ace complained.
"Ahahaha!"
"I'm invincible!"
Natsu placed his hands on his hips and laughed heartily.
"Damn it, Natsu, you're too arrogant."
Gray couldn't stand Natsu's arrogant appearance any longer. An astonishingly cold aura erupted from his body as he launched an attack on Natsu.
BOOM!
In an instant, the entire sea was frozen.
"Now this is a real Ice Age, isn't it?!" Ace complained as he watched the scene before him.
Gray's immense power was enough to affect the climate of the entire world.
"This is my power!" Gray smiled.
"Incredible!"
"So powerful!"
The members of the Whitebeard crew widened their eyes, finally having a clear understanding of the Fairy Tail guild's combat strength.
"This is just the beginning!"
However, the S-Class mages of Fairy Tail were not satisfied with Natsu and Gray's power.
"Let us show you the combat power of a Fairy Tail S-Class mage!"
As she spoke, Erza drew the Zanpakuto from her waist.
"Bankai!"
Erza roared, and a terrifying power erupted from within her. The immense force shook the entire planet, and the terrifying power formed a shockwave that reverberated throughout the solar system.
"Dragon Force, activate!"
Laxus laughed heartily, raising his magic power to its absolute limit, transforming into a giant thunder dragon and letting out a deafening roar.
"Take Over!"
Mirajane said, directly taking over a Demon Soul and transforming into a terrifying demon form.
BOOM!
In an instant, an endless torrent of magic power stirred up a massive tsunami on the sea, and the entire world seemed to be plunged into an apocalypse.
"This world is probably going to be destroyed, isn't it?!"
Whitebeard couldn't help but exclaim as he looked at the scene before him.
"No, no, no."
"Isn't that the line we're supposed to say to you?"
Sengoku glanced at Whitebeard and said weakly.
In this world full of islands, a quake-man like Whitebeard was already enough to destroy the world.
But the scale of destruction Fairy Tail was capable of was different.
Fairy Tail destroyed planets.
That was a little different from destroying islands and civilizations.
"My 'world destruction' is a reputation."
"For these guys from the Fairy Tail guild, destroying the world is a fact!" Whitebeard said.
"We never should have let these lunatics from the Fairy Tail guild come here," the God of the Sea said to himself.
"Lightning Dragon's Roar!!"
"Mahavairocana!"
"Heavenly King Uranus!"
"Fire Dragon King's Demolition Fist."
"Daiguren Hyōrinmaru."
BOOM!!
Under the battle of the Fairy Tail mages, heaven and earth were churned into chaos.
At this, Makarov, who had always claimed to be uninterested in fighting, took a deep breath. His body instantly grew, transforming into a ten-thousand-meter-tall giant. He swung his fist and roared, "Stop it, you brats!"
BOOM!
Under Makarov's fist, the island instantly vanished from everyone's sight.
Marine Headquarters.
Inhale, exhale.
Sakazuki smoked his cigar, an endless gloom hidden in his eyes.
"They all left?!" Sakazuki asked.
"They all left," a Marine replied.
"Not a single one left?!" Sakazuki asked again.
"Not a single one," the Marine soldier replied.
Sigh.
Sakazuki felt a wave of emotion. As soon as the Fairy Tail guild arrived, everyone in Marine Headquarters had left, leaving him all alone.
At this moment, Sakazuki truly understood what it meant to be a lone king.
Sakazuki thought: "Family, who can understand this?! The entire Marine Headquarters is filled with Fairy Tail spies! You tell me, how am I supposed to enforce justice?"
