While Kenichi was looking at Kagura, she seemed to sense something on the arena. She turned her body slightly and glanced in Kenichi's direction.
When Kagura's and Kenichi's gazes met, a faint blush quietly rose on her perpetually ice-cold, pretty face.
"Kagura!"
Just as Kagura and Kenichi were making eye contact, cheers came from Milianna and the others over there.
Hearing these cheers, she snapped out of her brief daze.
Her beautiful eyes flickered a few times, then she hurriedly turned around.
But just as Kagura turned, a rare, cheerful smile appeared on her pretty face.
"Kagura, well done!"
"You were so cool just now!"
When Kagura returned from the arena to Mermaid Heel's location, Milianna, Beth, and the other members of Mermaid Heel all came up to greet her, excitedly expressing their feelings.
While Milianna and Beth were talking, the live commentator on the announcer's stand loudly declared: "Next up is the third battle match of the day!"
"The combatants are... Fairy Tail B Team's Laxus vs. Sabertooth's Orga!"
As soon as the commentator said this, Kenichi's eyebrow raised, and his gaze fell upon Laxus and Orga.
"Orga, that guy who uses black lightning, right?"
Erza also followed Kenichi's gaze, looking at Sabertooth's Orga.
Orga had defeated his opponent in one move during the first day's competition.
So Erza had some impression of this Orga.
"Ooh~ Lightning vs. Lightning, this is quite interesting! Whose lightning is stronger?!"
Hearing Erza's words, Natsu clenched his fists, speaking excitedly.
"There's no need to ask, of course it's Laxus. Probably only Kenichi and Gildarts can defeat Laxus!"
Gray crossed his arms, looking at Laxus, who was walking towards the arena wearing his coat, and spoke as if it were obvious.
While Gray and Natsu were talking, Sting from Sabertooth also teased Orga: "Orga, you've met your match. That Laxus is also a Lightning Mage!"
"Lightning? Lightning Magic is useless before me!"
Orga glanced at the distant Laxus, then walked towards the arena.
"Heh heh, it seems this match will be another win for our guild, because Orga's lightning can even kill gods!"
Watching Orga's retreating back, the red Exceed standing on the railing said proudly.
"Frosch thinks so too!"
The green Exceed nearby chimed in.
Soon, under everyone's watchful eyes, Laxus and Orga walked to the center of the arena.
'Laxus vs Orga. I just hope Laxus doesn't instantly defeat Orga, at least wait until I collect Orga's Lightning God Slayer Magic attribute!'
Kenichi looked at Laxus and Orga in the arena, an interested smile curling on his lips as he thought to himself.
At that moment, the live commentator on the high platform loudly announced: "The match begins!"
Clang~
With the sound of a gong, Orga made the first move.
Orga brought his palms together.
Crackle crackle crackle-
Immediately, a sphere of lightning gathered at the front of his palms.
Once the lightning sphere grew to the size of a fist, a black shockwave swept towards Laxus.
"120mm Lightning Cannon!"
Watching the lightning shockwave sweep towards him, Laxus initially didn't plan to dodge.
After all, he was a Lightning Dragon Slayer.
Lightning Magic had no effect on him.
But suddenly, a feeling of danger arose in his heart.
This feeling was Laxus's instinctive reaction to danger, accumulated through years of battle.
Just as the lightning shockwave was about to hit Laxus, Laxus shifted his body slightly, directly avoiding the black lightning shockwave.
Bzzzt-
The next second, the black lightning shockwave struck the ground behind Laxus.
At that moment, a terrifyingly loud explosion sounded through the air.
The black lightning spread out in all directions along the ground.
"This lightning is...?"
Laxus opened his palm, and a wisp of black lightning, thin as a gossamer thread, appeared on his hand.
Sensing that this black lightning wasn't ordinary, Laxus's expression shifted slightly.
"Heh!"
Seeing the expression on Laxus's face, Orga grinned smugly.
"Good judgment!"
"If you had taken that move head-on just now, you'd be lying on the ground by now!"
"Because this lightning of mine can even kill gods!"
Orga clenched his fists tightly, shouting excitedly.
"God Slayer Magic!"
"No wonder it looks so familiar!"
"It's the same as that guy from Grimoire Heart!"
Hearing Orga's words, Natsu on the stands had a realization, immediately recalling Zancrow, whom he had fought on Tenrou Island.
That Zancrow used black flames.
And now, this Orga was using pitch-black lightning.
While Natsu was thinking, Laxus on the arena acted as if he hadn't heard Orga's words. He moved his feet, and his figure shot towards Orga like an arrow from a bow.
"Charging straight at me?!"
"Didn't you understand what I said?"
Orga grinned, then tightly clenched his fist, bulging with muscles.
The next moment, a black lightning coiled around his fist.
"Exploding Lightning Strike!"
Orga threw a fierce punch towards Laxus.
Facing Orga's punch, Laxus didn't retreat in the slightest, meeting it with a punch of his own.
"Lightning Dragon's Iron Fist!"
Bang-
The next second, Laxus's fist wrapped in golden lightning and Orga's fist wrapped in black lightning collided directly.
At that moment, a thunderous roar echoed through the air.
And Orga's body flew backwards like a cannonball, falling to the ground with the sound.
"What was that guy's name again?"
"Ah, forget it, can't remember."
Watching Orga fall, Laxus muttered to himself, then turned and walked away suavely.
"Participant Laxus wins!"
"Fairy Tail B Team gets 10 points!"
As soon as the commentator said this, the entire stadium instantly erupted.
"So strong!"
"He actually defeated Orga in one move! Wasn't Orga one of Sabertooth's top five?!"
"This is amazing, Fairy Tail!"
While the audience was cheering, Macao and the other members of Fairy Tail were also incredibly excited.
"As expected of Laxus!"
"Still ridiculously strong!"
While the Fairy Tail's members were cheering, the red Exceed over there wore an expression of utter disbelief.
"Orga was defeated instantly?"
"Just who is that man?"
"Are all the guys in Fairy Tail that strong?"
However, Sting was full of fighting spirit.
"This is pretty interesting, Fairy Tail?!"
While everyone was discussing fervently, Kenichi was collecting the attributes dropped during the fight between Laxus and Orga.
[Host, would you like to collect the Lightning God Slayer Magic attribute?]
'Collect!'
