"It's alright, it's just that you guys are too weak."
Seeing the opponent, Takeshi suddenly remembered that Oración Seis still had a Guild Master.
Zero's Magic Power is quite high, probably a little over Seven Stars, which is even higher than Jura's.
Zero laughed. "Hahahahahaha! That's true. Brain has been working on this for so many years only to gather such trash and waste. But no matter how useless they are, they are still members of my Guild, and as the Guild Master, I must stand up for them."
Takeshi raised an eyebrow and said, "You just want to fight, don't you? We are enemies anyway, so there's no need for so many excuses. The desire to kill us is practically overflowing from your eyes."
"Haha! Was I seen through? That's right. I just want to destroy. Destroy everything, no matter what!" Zero shouted, raising his palm.
Dark Rondo!
"Look out!"
Jura issued a warning.
Boom!
A large number of ghosts erupted from the ground.
"Ahhhhhh!"
Everyone was affected, unable to dodge in time.
Zero put his right hand behind his back, joined his left index and middle fingers, and unleashed a high-speed rotating dark energy beam.
Dark Capriccio!
Iron Rock Wall!
Jura quickly tried to block it.
Boom... Boom...
The Iron Rock Wall instantly shattered.
"What?!"
Jura couldn't believe it.
Before, he could easily block Brain's magic, but now he couldn't resist it. What was going on with Brain?
Jura immediately changed the direction of the Iron Rock Wall, altering the attack's trajectory.
"Hah!"
Zero waved his hand, and the magic that Jura had diverted surprisingly changed direction again and struck Jura.
"Ahhhh!"
Jura cried out in pain, his body sent flying.
"Don't think I'm the same as Brain."
"Vanish!"
Zero waved his hand again.
The magic circled around, aiming to pierce Jura's body.
Erza immediately drew her sword and rushed forward to block.
Crack!
The magic beam shattered.
Just as Zero prepared to attack again—
Swish!
An energy javelin slashed onto Zero's magic.
Boom!
The attack was directly struck and sent flying.
Boom... Boom...
The dark magic pierced through all the nearby buildings.
Zero stopped and looked at Takeshi. From Brain's memories, he had already learned the details about this brat.
This brat's achievements were astonishing. He had defeated two Wizard Saints, the Celestial Spirit King, and was even capable of teleporting away the Magic Council's Ultimate Weapon, Etherion.
Coupled with Takeshi's performance during his previous fight against Oración Seis, even Zero had to treat him with caution.
Takeshi said, "Erza, you guys leave first. I'll handle this guy. Also, everyone, stay far away from here."
Erza shook her head. "Takeshi, he is only one person. We should fight him together."
If Takeshi were in peak condition, Erza wouldn't mind letting him face the opponent alone, but Takeshi had been fighting for too long and had been using Take Over Magic for too long, his Magic Power consumption was too high.
"That's right. His Magic Power is terrifying, even surpassing mine." Jura said.
He couldn't allow Takeshi to face such a dangerous person alone.
"Exactly. Working together, we can definitely take him down." Lucy said.
"Ugh!"
Natsu, fighting off the nausea from Motion Sickness, still wanted to fight.
Since the previous battle had just ended, Happy's Magic Power was also depleted, so he could only throw Natsu onto Nirvana.
Takeshi smiled and said, "Alright, everyone, it's just one person we're dealing with. We don't need this many people. If it weren't for the people on Nirvana just now, I would have already set out to destroy Nirvana."
Erza froze for a moment, then realized something. "Takeshi... you intend to..."
Takeshi nodded. "Just as you thought. As for Magic Power, you don't need to worry. I have enough to deal with this guy. Having you here would actually hinder me."
"Well... alright."
Seeing Takeshi's insistence, the group had no choice but to agree.
Jura helped Lyon up. "Takeshi-san, please be extra careful."
Erza helped Gray up. "Takeshi, we're leaving him to you."
Lucy supported Natsu. "Go for it, Takeshi. Take him down."
"Aye!"
"Don't worry!"
The group quickly left.
Their Magic Power was almost fully depleted, and they had all sustained serious injuries. If they stayed here, they would only get in the way.
Zero looked at Takeshi, grinning sinisterly, and said, "Everyone who was getting in the way is gone. It's time to get serious now."
Takeshi shook his head. "They are not people who get in the way, they are my companions. Perhaps their current strength isn't enough, but they are all striving to become stronger. Don't underestimate them. In the future, they will be incredibly strong, perhaps even stronger than me."
The power level in Fairy Tail is very high. Whether it's the physical stats or the rule-level magics, it's no worse than the Big Three.
Natsu and his team are the Protagonist Group, and everyone's strength will increase significantly in the late stage.
His current strength is considerably higher than Natsu's, but that gap will constantly shrink over time. Perhaps later, his strength might not even match Natsu's. After all, Natsu is the true protagonist of this world. Therefore, he naturally wouldn't underestimate Natsu and the others.
"Heh heh. You are too humble."
Zero didn't believe Takeshi's words. In his eyes, those guys were no different from trash.
Takeshi spread his hands and said, "I'm telling the truth, but whether you believe it or not is up to you."
Zero curled his lips into a cruel smile and said, "Don't worry. They won't become stronger than you. After I deal with you, I will make them disappear from this world, so they can keep you company."
Zero Slash!
Zero unleashed Dark Capriccio from his hand, wielding it like a whip.
Boom!
Takeshi swung the energy javelin and blocked it.
"And there's more."
Zero used the same type of magic with his other hand and swung it at Takeshi again. In response, Takeshi swung the energy javelin and knocked it away.
The two spells then constantly weaved through the ground and surrounding buildings, attacking Takeshi.
Takeshi either dodged or used the javelin to strike them away and change their direction.
Sonído!
Takeshi's body flashed instantly, appearing in mid-air, his index finger pointed at Zero below.
Cero Oscuras!
Whoosh!
The Cero Oscuras rapidly lunged toward Zero below.
"Hah!"
Zero waved both hands, and two Dark Capriccios met the Cero Oscuras together.
Boom!
The collision of the two different energies caused a violent explosion to erupt in mid-air.
Dark Gravity!
Zero aimed both hands at Takeshi.
Takeshi felt a powerful gravitational pull, and the Reishi support points beneath his feet shattered, his body rushing toward Zero.
Takeshi flapped his wings to adjust his position, and the javelin in his hand slashed toward Zero.
Zero raised his palm.
Dark Rondo!
The gathered magic went straight toward the javelin.
Boom!
