The Witcher: The Journey to Transcendence from Marvel...

Chapter 135 MT

Gerald was unaware that he had been used as a pawn, and he still believed that all the chaos was the result of Wes's unauthorized actions.

"Indeed, you can't rely on anyone; you can only rely on yourself."

Just as Gerald was about to launch another attack, a familiar figure burst onto the battlefield.

"Natsu! Happy!" Erza exclaimed.

Happy struggled to carry Natsu to the top of the tower.

"I feel like this tower has gotten shorter." Natsu's intuition was as accurate as ever.

Happy, panting heavily with his tongue lolling out, said, "Natsu, you're overthinking it. I'm exhausted."

"Erza, I'm so glad you're alright."

Natsu grinned as he looked at his unharmed comrade, as if the crisis had never happened.

"Grey and Lucy, the others?" Erza asked with concern, worried about the safety of her other companions.

"Don't worry, with the Rain Woman's help, we'll land safely."

Natsu gave a thumbs-up, looking very confident.

Erza breathed a sigh of relief: "That's great."

Upon hearing that everyone was safe and sound, a long-lost smile finally appeared on her face.

This sense of relief didn't last long, because after reporting that he was safe, Natsu immediately turned to Wes and Gerald, full of fighting spirit: "From now on, I'll be your opponent."

"He recovered so quickly, what an interesting little guy."

Natsu's actions only fueled Wes' growing curiosity about him.

"One by one... Hmph... Hmph..." Gerald displayed a look of disdain. "I'll wipe you all out!!"

"Natsu, run!!"

Erza called out hastily, but she knew very well that Natsu was never one to give up easily.

"Erza became like this because of you, didn't she, Jellal?" Natsu angrily questioned Jellal.

"So what if I am? You think you can beat me?"

Jellal made no attempt to hide his contempt and began to mercilessly mock Natsu and his guild.

"you……"

Natsu clenched his fists, his anger almost bursting from his chest.

"The Roar of the Fire Dragon!!"

The flames swept in like a raging tornado, but in Gerald's eyes, it was all still ridiculous.

Wes, who was watching from the sidelines, seized this opportunity.

"The Sigh of the Wind".

A powerful gust of wind surged forth, but instead of extinguishing Natsu's flames, it amplified them, multiplying the power of Natsu's magic.

Faced with Wes's help, Gerald had no choice but to take it seriously.

"I don't need your help, you bastard!"

Natsu turned and glared at Wes, but Wes just glanced at him indifferently, too lazy to explain to this simple-minded guy.

As long as Natsu's power is utilized effectively, one's goals can be achieved.

After all, at this moment, they have a common enemy.

"Natsu, this is not the time to act rashly. We must stop Jellal's plan to revive Zeref!"

Erza tried to persuade her anxiously.

Upon hearing this, Natsu was stunned. "Resurrected??"

This was the first time he had ever heard of such a thing.

Seeing this, Erza had no choice but to give a brief explanation, revealing Jellal's true intentions to Natsu.

Natsu looked down at the magic crystal at his feet, seemingly only just noticing the change in his surroundings.

"I was wondering why this tower looked so different."

"Your reaction is too slow," Happy complained helplessly from the side.

Just then, Natsu noticed that Wes's clone was constantly breaking down the surrounding magic crystals, and a sudden inspiration flashed in his mind!

He's an enemy too; we can't let him get away with this.

Without hesitation, he smashed the magic crystal on the ground with a punch, then quickly picked up a piece and stuffed it directly into his mouth.

This action left Erza, who was standing nearby, dumbfounded.

Gerald emerged from the raging flames and witnessed the scene unfold.

"Are you an idiot? You swallowed the magic crystal, you might as well just wait to explode and die."

"Hmm~"

Natsu pounded his chest hard and forced himself to swallow the magic crystal.

"I am Igniel's child, how could I be stumped by a mere magic crystal?"

After saying that, he wiped his lips, "After eating it, I felt a continuous surge of energy!!"

Not a single mistake, not a single poem, not a single post, not a single piece of content, not a single look!

Just as Natsu said, his body began to emit a stronger light, and magic flowed within him, becoming a part of him.

Wes could also sense that Natsu's magical power was constantly increasing.

[While Dragon Slayer Magic can indeed restore mana and stamina by consuming objects of the same element, directly consuming a mana crystal seems a bit excessive.]

[His regenerative abilities and magic resistance are beyond what Dragon Slayer Magic can achieve. Zeref is truly amazing; he was able to create such a perfect creation.]

Wes couldn't help but admire Jelf's abilities.

He was able to create a life form like Natsu, which already touched upon the realm of "god".

Zeref's expertise in magical research far exceeded the imagination of ordinary people, and even Wes himself was ashamed of his own inferiority.

However, Wes was not discouraged by this. Instead, he had a clear goal: to surpass Jeff.

In the ensuing battle, Wes was entirely assisting Natsu in suppressing Jellal.

As he collected more and more magic crystals, the height of the Tower of Paradise continued to decrease.

On the vast, distant sea, the council ships, which were initially just faint black dots, are now clearly visible.

The massive fleet and the fluttering flags all proclaimed that Gerald's meticulously planned scheme had been completely thwarted.

All his efforts and plans were shattered like a fragile sand sculpture by the surging waves in the face of these approaching ships.

Gerald's emotions became increasingly manic as the plan failed.

The magic power emanating from his body raged out of control like a storm, growing stronger and more frenzied.

He unleashed his magic with reckless abandon, and the surrounding air trembled with his rage.

Natsu, however, showed no fear in the face of the powerful Jellal.

He faced the challenge head-on, and each counterattack was more ferocious than the last.

No matter how powerful the enemy, he would never back down.

His fists burned with intense heat, each swing like a burning meteor hurtling towards Gerald.

Wes, meanwhile, calmly restrained Jellal, skillfully using his magic to constantly interfere with Jellal's actions, preventing him from fully engaging Natsu.

Whenever Gerald angrily attacks Wes, Natsu seizes every opportunity to attack.

He was like a nimble cheetah, always ready to pounce on his prey.

[What a qualified tank.]

Natsu is both strong and resilient; his body seems to be made of steel, and he can withstand any attack from Jellal, no matter how fierce.

Most importantly, Natsu showed no fear when facing enemies stronger than himself, fighting with a completely reckless attitude.

His bravery and fearlessness successfully drew Gerald's attention to himself, forcing Gerald to focus most of his energy on dealing with his attacks.

Working with this guy feels pretty good.
