Fairy Tail: This Healing Mage's hits hurt so much!

Sunshine spun halfway through the air, then precisely struck Stinger and Roger with the back of his foot, kicking them both to the ground.

The two fell from the sky and slammed their backs onto the arena, creating a human-shaped crater in the ground and sending debris flying.

【Azure Dragon's Roar - Holy Shadow】

He opened his mouth and spewed out a torrent of black and white liquid.

Two beams of light, one white and one black, surged from his mouth simultaneously, intertwined, and spiraled towards the ground.

The torrent, carrying unparalleled power, crashed down on the two of them.

The ground was pierced, rubble was blasted into the air, and smoke and dust billowed into the sky.

The immense power shattered even the arena floor.

The ground collapsed, creating a large hole with a diameter of more than ten meters, and rubble was still falling from the edges.

The abandoned mine shaft was revealed below.

The dark passage stretched into the distance, the mine cart tracks were faintly visible in the darkness, the rails were rusty, and the air was filled with a damp, musty smell.

Natsu lay on the edge of the pit and looked down.

He leaned half his body out, stuck his head into the hole, and blinked twice in the darkness.

"Stinger, Roger, are you still alive?!"

The sound echoed through the mine, hitting the walls and bouncing several times.

Sunburst landed lightly behind Natsu.

He glanced at Natsu's protruding buttocks, raised his foot, and kicked him down.

The sole of his foot landed on Natsu's buttocks, kicking him down.

"You can go down too."

"Damn Sunrise!!"

Natsu fell into the pit, his body tumbling through the air.

He was cursing and swearing, and his voice came up from the cave, each sentence louder than the last.

Riyao jumped down after him. He spread his arms and fell forward, free-falling.

"Wuhu!"

The Fairy Tail members all sighed.

They're still playing at this point.

Natsu saw the mine cart next to him and chuckled.

He gave it a strong push, and the mine cart slid along the rails, stopping precisely where the sun had fallen.

As Riyao fell into the mine cart, he collapsed the moment his body touched the bottom.

"you……"

Goodbye, Sunrise!

Natsu kicked the minecart, and it slid along the track into the unknown depths.

The wheels turned on the rails, making a clattering sound, growing farther and farther away until they disappeared into the darkness.

"Hahaha, now I can finally have a proper fight!"

Natsu turned around, flames erupting from his hands, the orange-red light reflecting on his face.

The Fairy Tail members facepalmed in unison.

Mirajane wasn't worried about anything going wrong with Sunrise.

She rested her hands on the railing, a faint smile playing on her lips.

Riyao sat in the mine cart, yawning, and squeezed out two tears from the corners of his eyes.

The Azure Dragon form had long since faded, and its horns and tail had all retracted.

He stretched, his joints making a cracking sound.

He should go down and trigger a plot point; if he can salvage the situation even a little, that's one thing.

I messed up the rhythm by interfering, so I'm trying to fix it now.

He crossed his legs and swung them a couple of times.

He'll have an excuse to beat up Natsu and vent his anger when he gets back.

That's a good enough reason.

From the stands of Saberbite Tiger, Minerva watched Sunrise disappear into the mine, and she sat back down on the sofa.

Riyao felt a bit creepy.

A chill ran down my back, goosebumps rose on my arms, and the hairs on my arms stood on end.

He shrank back and looked around. The only sounds in the mine tunnel were the clatter of the mine carts moving forward and his own breathing.

"This place is haunted?! Oh right, it really is haunted. There's a big fat green dragon, a jade fat dragon, hahaha, we'll make a good laugh at the jade later."

He laughed out loud, the sound echoing through the mine shaft before being swallowed by the darkness.

Stinger stood up and wiped his mouth.

I braced myself on my arms and stood up. I swayed a little when I stood up, but I managed to stay upright.

The bloodstains at the corner of his mouth were wiped away with the back of his hand.

"Mr. Natsu, you shouldn't have pushed Mr. Sunshine away. We haven't even used the power of the dragon yet."

Roger stood up and stood with Stinger.

The black light on his body had not completely dissipated; it flowed across his skin twice.

Dragon scales appeared on the faces of the two people.

White scales appeared on Stinger's face, while black scales appeared on Rogue's face. The scales protruded from under the skin and shimmered faintly in the dim mine tunnel.

The momentum surged several times over, and the air itself seemed to vibrate and buzz.

Stinger condensed a holy attribute light sphere, while Rogue condensed a dark attribute light sphere.

Two orbs of light, one white and one black, spun in their palms, growing brighter and brighter, dispelling most of the darkness in the mine tunnel.

The two pushed the light spheres to merge.

The spheres of light came together, and the moment their edges touched, they emitted a piercing hiss.

Light and darkness intertwined, repelling and attracting each other, making the air feel exceptionally heavy.

Everyone present could feel its domineering power.

The air pressure surging out of the crater caused the hair of the spectators in the stands to flutter backward.

The black and white sphere of light was continuously compressed, from the size of a basketball to the size of a fist. The light became increasingly dazzling, and cracks began to appear on its surface.

Natsu stood still, wanting to see what other tricks they could come up with.

He even considered trying a bite; his mouth opened slightly, and he licked his lips with his tongue, but then he held back.

【Holy Shadow Dragon Flash Fang】

Roger and Stinger both threw punches at the same time.

The two men unleashed their fists side by side, striking the ball of light simultaneously.

The sphere of light, a mixture of holy and dark energy, was fully activated.

The ball of light exploded, and a massive black and white torrent slammed into Natsu.

The black and white light intertwined, forming a thick shockwave with a diameter of over two meters, carving a deep trench in the ground wherever it passed.

The entire arena was enveloped in white light, making it impossible for anyone to see what was happening inside.

The white light was so bright that people couldn't open their eyes; some people shielded their eyes with their hands, but couldn't see anything through their fingers.

Taking advantage of the light, Mirajane quickly slipped into the mine.

She transformed into a blur, leaping off the edge of the pit and disappearing into the mine.

The light gradually faded.

Everyone present stared wide-eyed, their eyes practically bulging out of their sockets. Their mouths were agape, wide enough to fit a fist.

The person who was bitten by the sword was the most surprised.

Stinger and Rogue knew better than anyone the power of their combined attack.

Now it was caught by a single hand.

Natsu caught it with just one hand!

He tightened his grip, squeezing the remaining forcefully until it burst.

Black and white light exploded in the flames.

"My turn next!"

Thick, reddish-orange flames erupted from his body.

Flames surged from his body, covering his entire form; they were thick and viscous, and the temperature was so high that even the air itself seemed to distort.

They rushed toward Stinger and Roger.

He kicked a crater in the ground with his feet, and his whole body turned into a streak of fire, instantly rushing in front of the two.

Every punch and every kick was powerful and heavy.

The fist slammed into Stinger, sending him sliding backward.

The instep of his foot struck Roger, sending Roger flying sideways.

The two men managed to parry, crossing their arms in front of them, but their arms trembled with each blow they blocked.

Natsu moved closer to the two of them.

The Roar of the Fire Dragon

He opened his mouth and spewed out flames, the crimson-orange flames exploding from his mouth to form a pillar of fire that blasted the two of them away.

The two were engulfed by flames and sent flying, their bodies tumbling in the air, their clothes charred black.

【Dragon Slayer Secret Technique: Crimson Lotus Blazing Blade】

Flames erupted from his arms, and he clasped his hands together.

Flames gathered between their palms, forming a spiraling pillar of fire that engulfed the two of them.

Flames exploded, and crimson-orange flames shot into the sky.

【Dragon Slayer Secret Technique: Crimson Lotus Phoenix Sword】

The flames on Natsu's body surged, completely engulfing him and forming a giant phoenix phantom.

The phoenix spread its wings and let out a sharp cry, blasting Stinger and his companion away from mid-air once again, causing flames to explode on their bodies.

Flames exploded in mid-air, forming the words "Fairy Tail".

Everyone could see the large, burning characters.

Stinger and Rogue landed on the arena floor.

The two fell from the sky, landed on their backs, bounced once, and then remained still.

His clothes were burned to tatters, his body was blackened, and his hair was still smoking.

Natsu landed from the air, raised his right hand, and spread his five fingers.

Chabadi slammed his fist on the table and stood up.

He slammed his hand on the commentary table, and with a snap, the cup bounced.

"Match over! Fairy Tail wins!"

The Fairy Tail members cheered with joy.

Natsu raised his fists high.

The audience members stood up excitedly and shouted.

Cheers erupted from the stands, causing the arena to tremble slightly.
