Chapter 316 - Chapter 316: The Appearance of Igneel and Other Dragons

"Hahahahahaha~" Acnologia laughed up to the sky, his laughter deafening, as if it would pierce through the clouds.

He was tightly gripping the dragon claw that had already recovered, his eyes gleaming with excitement and greed.

To be honest, he had to thank that final blow. It was precisely that crucial strike that allowed him to devour the power of the time rift, gain the power of time, and restore his arm.

But as for those guys from Fairy Tail, they possessed such terrifying strength that the collision of their attacks just happened to open the time rift. If not for that, his arm might have really been severed in that battle.

Such a severe injury was a heavy blow he had not encountered in hundreds of years.

For the hunter to be harmed by the prey was simply a great humiliation.

Thinking of this, the anger in Acnologia's heart was instantly ignited, burning fiercely and becoming increasingly uncontrollable.

"Unforgivable! Roar~" As Acnologia's laughter abruptly ceased, he suddenly let out a furious roar towards the sky.

This roar was like a thunderclap, shaking heaven and earth, and the endless anger contained within it seemed to materialize, forming a violent storm that swept towards the city below with overwhelming force.

Just then, Zorn reacted quickly.

He clasped his hands together.

In an instant, countless shimmering light shields appeared out of thin air, like a solid barrier, meticulously enveloping Everyone in the city, ensuring they would not be affected or harmed by the storm.

"Zorn, your injury…" Cana, standing by his side, asked with a worried expression. She stared intently at Zorn, her eyes full of concern.

Zorn smiled slightly and replied softly, "Don't worry, Cana, I haven't used too much power yet. There's no need to worry about this injury for now." After speaking, his gaze returned to the sky.

There, Acnologia was gradually falling into madness due to his rage.

At this moment, Ann, standing not far away, gazed at the out-of-control Acnologia in the sky and said thoughtfully:

"It seems that guy must have devoured the power of the time rift, otherwise he couldn't have become so powerful and violent."

While Everyone was still pondering.

A loud cry full of intense killing intent came from high in the sky:

"All Dragon Slayers must die!"

The roaring words had just fallen.

There was a whooshing sound, and countless transparent tentacles shot out like arrows from a bowstring.

They suddenly sprang from Acnologia's massive body, sweeping towards the Dragon Slayers with lightning speed and overwhelming force.

Zorn glanced at Sting and Rogue, two minors, and with a flash of his figure, he had already appeared in front of Sting and Rogue.

He was holding dragon cry tightly in his right hand, his arm raised high, and then with a forceful swing, an extremely sharp sword qi whistled out, directly striking the tentacles in the sky.

Along with a crisp snapping sound, some tentacles broke in response, but at the same time, another tentacle took the opportunity to quickly wrap around Zorn's body.

In an instant, an incredibly powerful force surged forth, firmly suppressing Zorn, rendering him unable to move.

However, besides Zorn, the other Dragon Slayers, including Laxus, Natsu, Gajeel, Wendy, and Erik, were not spared.

They were almost simultaneously tightly gripped by numerous tentacles and hoisted high into the air like puppets.

Despite this, not a trace of panic showed on any of their faces, and they didn't even make any attempt to resist.

The others standing by, though filled with worry and anxiety at this sight, knew that this was the only way to defeat the terrifying existence of Acnologia in one fell swoop.

The moment the tentacles appeared, Zorn had already transmitted a message to Everyone, telling them not to resist.

He knew that defeating Acnologia required a dual destruction, both mentally and physically.

At this moment, Meredy was closely following Mest, and under his guidance, the two instantly teleported to another place.

They bore a seemingly simple but crucial mission—to gather the magic power of the entire world.

And high in the sky, Acnologia laughed wildly: "Hahaha~ No one can escape my grasp!!!" When he saw Zorn also fall into his hands, his laughter became even more frenzied, as if he was completely immersed in the joy of victory.

However, he didn't notice anything unusual; his opponents didn't resist at all, which was extremely abnormal.

But at this moment, his thoughts had already been swallowed by the constantly expanding power, making him blind and arrogant.

Just then, a deafening roar suddenly erupted from Natsu's body: "Acnologia!!!" Immediately after, an incredibly scorching aura rose from Natsu's body like a volcanic eruption.

In an instant, it transformed into a majestic giant dragon in the sky, in no way inferior to the Fire Dragon King Igneel.

At the same time, all the giant dragons hidden within the bodies of Gajeel, Wendy, Sting, and Rogue also appeared at this moment. They rushed up into the clouds together, quickly gathered, forming a tight encirclement, firmly trapping Acnologia in the middle.

"This… what exactly is going on? How can there suddenly be dragons!!!" The other Guild Members who hadn't yet understood the situation were all dumbfounded at this moment, staring foolishly like wooden figures at the group of giant dragons that had appeared out of thin air.

Even the usually calm and composed Erza couldn't help but look up at the giant dragons in the sky at this moment. Her eyes first showed a hint of undisguised shock, but soon a flash of sudden realization flickered through them.

So that's how it is, cleverly using their own powerful strength to implant anti-dragonification factors into those children!

But in that case, their lives would not have much left....

Erza knew this well, and her heart was filled with the unreserved parental love of this sacrifice, which reminded her of her own feelings when she first became a parent.

Looking at Erza's small, adorable appearance, didn't she also have a mother's protective love?

Erza thought of this, gripping the staff tightly in her hand.

"Igneel?"

"Grandine?"

...

Upon seeing these familiar and majestic figures appear, the children who had been raised by dragons all instantly showed incredibly strong joy in their eyes.

They were so excited they couldn't control themselves, and bright smiles blossomed on their faces.

"Natsu, my good child, I have been silently watching you grow!" Igneel bared his large mouth, revealing sharp, pointed dragon teeth, praising Natsu wholeheartedly and without reservation.

His powerful and resonant voice seemed to travel through time, echoing in Everyone's ears.

The other dragons looked at the children with approval, nodding slightly in praise.

Natsu, Gajeel, and Wendy all wore proud smiles on their faces, standing tall with their heads held high, their gazes fixed firmly on Acnologia.

Then, like arrows released from a bowstring, filled with fighting spirit and courage, they plunged into the fray without hesitation, transforming into streaks of light.

Just then, Igneel also let out a deafening dragon roar:

"For the future of our children, it's time for us parents to do our best!!!" With this roar, he was the first to spread his wings and soar, charging like a lightning bolt directly towards the powerful enemy—Acnologia.

The other dragons, seeing this, were not to be outdone, following closely behind Igneel, forming a mighty and imposing force.

Meanwhile, Makarov stood in place, shouting loudly to the Everyone around him:

"Everyone, it's our turn too, quickly prepare the other necessary items!!!" His voice was like a grand bell, clearly reaching Everyone's ears.

"Oh!" Everyone shouted in unison, responding to Makarov's command.

Then, they moved their feet, like a sudden storm, rushing towards the distant coastline.
