"Place your bets! Place your bets!" Cana shouted.
Everyone in the Guild placed their bets.
Lucy took a look and found that most people were betting on Gildarts to win, with only a small minority betting on Takeshi.
The fact that so many people thought Gildarts would win made her look forward to what a spectacular match this would be.
The commotion from the Fairy Tail side attracted the attention of many citizens. Upon hearing that Takeshi and Gildarts were having a duel for the title of Fairy Tail's strongest Mage, they all quickly called their siblings, neighbors, and extended family members to come and watch.
Makarov came over and warned, "You two brats, hold back a little. There are many citizens here, don't destroy the city."
"Don't worry, Master. I know how to hold back." Gildarts said carelessly.
Takeshi nodded to Makarov and said, "I will be extra careful."
"Since you are both ready, then begin." Makarov announced the start.
Full Body Take Over: Gojo Satoru!
Takeshi chose to transform into Gojo Satoru. Gojo Satoru might not be the absolute strongest, but his skills were the most comprehensive. When facing opponents of unknown strength, even if he couldn't win, he wouldn't easily lose.
"Oh! Is this your Take Over Magic? Getting so handsome all of a sudden? Isn't that a bit unfair?" Gildarts watched Takeshi's transformation with great interest.
Takeshi used the Six Eyes to carefully observe Gildarts, and couldn't help but gasp sharply.
What a guy.
As expected of Fairy Tail's strongest Mage, Gildarts' Magic Power was immense.
Based on his comparison, Gildarts' Magic Power was at least 7.5 stars, close to eight stars.
"Come on. Let me see the strength of the Guild's current strongest." Gildarts beckoned Takeshi with his hand.
"Then I won't hold back."
Takeshi flashed forward, quickly rushing in front of Gildarts, powerful Cursed Energy gathering in his fist as he struck towards Gildarts.
Bang!
Gildarts raised his palm, and Takeshi's fist landed on it, being steadily blocked by Gildarts.
Takeshi quickly raised his foot and kicked towards Gildarts with incredible speed.
Gildarts quickly raised his palm to block.
Bang!
The immense force startled Gildarts.
Gildarts' eyes lit up.
This kid was certainly not simple. That last kick was fierce and had a tricky angle. He didn't look like a rookie at all. Rather, he seemed like a battle-hardened expert.
Whoosh!
Takeshi instantly moved above Gildarts' head and brought his foot down towards him.
While raising his arm to block, Gildarts stomped his right foot down.
Crack!
The ground beneath Gildarts' feet shattered into cubes, significantly cushioning the force of Takeshi's attack.
Gildarts tried to grab Takeshi's ankle, but when his palm reached the vicinity of Takeshi's ankle, he felt an invisible barrier, preventing him from touching Takeshi.
"Huh? What is this?"
Takeshi explained, "This is Infinity. Simply put, it allows a certain distance to be divided infinitely."
"I see. That truly is incredible magic."
"Gildarts-san, I'm going to get a little serious now. Please be careful."
Cursed Technique Lapse: Blue!
Takeshi aimed his palm at Gildarts and unleashed a Blue.
Boom!
Blue rushed towards Gildarts, carrying terrifying gravitational force.
"In that case, I'll get serious too."
Gildarts raised his palm and pressed towards Blue without dodging.
Swoosh!
Takeshi's Blue was disassembled into neat cubes, which then vanished.
Amazing!
While Takeshi was astonished by this sight, he also felt extremely excited.
As expected of Gildarts.
Even Sukuna wouldn't dare to directly take this move, yet Gildarts did.
At the same time, he sensed danger. Gildarts' Magic involved interference at the atomic level, similar to his Limitless. He wondered which was stronger.
Cursed Technique Reversal: Red!
Takeshi raised his right index finger, a small red sphere condensed above it, and he fired it towards Gildarts.
Seeing this, Gildarts increased his power slightly, raised his palm, and activated Crush Magic.
The Crush Magic collided with Red, crushing it.
Boom!
Gildarts' body slid backward a long distance.
"Gildarts was pushed back!"
Everyone in Fairy Tail was stunned to see Gildarts being pushed back.
Gildarts felt numbness in his palm. Although he had guessed the magic just now would be stronger, he hadn't expected the power to double, leaving him momentarily unable to react.
"That was amazing." Takeshi looked at Gildarts and exclaimed.
As someone who possessed Gojo Satoru's memories, he was perfectly clear of Satoru's battle with Sukuna.
Even Sukuna wouldn't dare to take that attack from Satoru lightly, meaning Gildarts' strength was actually above Sukuna's.
"You're the amazing one. That last attack was repulsion, right? Since you're so formidable, I don't need to hold back." Gildarts was excited at this moment.
Whoosh!
Gildarts appeared in front of Takeshi, his right hand clenched into a fist, striking towards Takeshi.
Takeshi raised his palm to block, and Gildarts' fist was stopped by an invisible layer of force.
"Crush!"
Gildarts let out a low shout, and Takeshi felt his Infinity instantly being broken through.
"What?!"
Takeshi was greatly shocked.
Compared to the Jujutsu Kaisen world where Infinity was virtually unbeatable, in the Fairy Tail world, Magic could actually break through his defense, though the speed of the breakthrough varied depending on the level of the Magic.
However, Gildarts' Magic broke through Infinity in an instant. No, it shouldn't be called a breakthrough, it should be called crush, shattering his Infinity.
Pfft!
Takeshi's arm suddenly burst open.
"Oh no! Suddenly my power..."
Gildarts' expression changed drastically.
With his Magic, he found it hard to hold back. He had just used his Magic, intending to break through Takeshi's defense, but he hadn't expected Takeshi's defense to be so strong, causing him to involuntarily increase his force.
"Takeshi!"
Everyone in Fairy Tail immediately became worried upon seeing this.
"Takeshi, I'm sorry, you..."
Takeshi waved his hand and said, "It's alright. I wanted to test how strong your Magic is."
"Why are you talking about that now? Get treatment immediately."
Wendy realized what had happened and said, "Takeshi-nii, I'll heal yo..."
Before Wendy could finish her sentence, she witnessed a miraculous and horrifying sight.
Takeshi's arm began to recover at a visible rate, returning to its original state in the blink of an eye.
