Chapter 16 The Element 4, Juvia!
🕑 Added 2025-10-31 23:06:47 +0000 UTCIn the center of the hall at the Phantom Lord guild's location, the Fairy Tail’s members, led by Makarov, were gathered together.
The hall all around was a mess.
A large number of Phantom Lord’s members lay scattered on the ground.
Clearly, Fairy Tail had the upper hand in the fight against Phantom Lord.
Jose, who had just entered, scanned the hall and finally fixed his gaze on Makarov before him.
Seeing Makarov's furious expression, Jose looked quite pleased.
"Although there was a slight mishap with Gajeel, the objective was still achieved. Everything is proceeding according to plan. Now, as long as Juvia over there captures Lucy Heartfilia, I win this war!"
Jose thought to himself, then said to Makarov with a mocking tone: "Makarov, it's been six years since we..."
Before Jose could finish, Makarov threw a punch at him.
"Enough talk, let's fight!"
Although Makarov looked small and thin, his attacks were not weak at all.
In the blink of an eye, he charged in front of Jose.
But Jose's reaction wasn't slow either. The moment Makarov was about to hit him, he sidestepped slightly, directly avoiding Makarov's attack.
Makarov's fist landed on the ground where Jose had been standing.
Boom-
At that moment, a loud noise echoed through the air.
The ground was instantly shattered.
For a moment, a large amount of rock debris flew out in all directions.
"Makarov, a fight between Wizard Saints can shake the world. I just want to end our battle in a more peaceful way!"
‘A more peaceful way!’
Perhaps Makarov didn't understand what Jose meant by this, but Kenichi knew.
In the original work, Jose first had Juvia and Sol, two of the Element 4, capture Lucy, then used Lucy as a hostage.
When Makarov saw Lucy and wavered, Aria, the leader of the Element 4, rushed out and launched a surprise attack on Makarov.
Aria's magic could instantly drain an opponent's magical power.
After Makarov's magical power was drained, he collapsed.
And the fight between Jose and Makarov ended there.
With this in mind, Kenichi looked at Jose, who was constantly stalling for time, and a barely noticeable curve appeared at the corner of his mouth.
‘The Fairy Law attribute is a must-have for me. I can't let your plan succeed!’
With that, Kenichi activated the Spatial Magic attribute.
‘He's gone?’
Levy glanced towards where Kenichi had been, but Kenichi had already vanished.
...
On a street in Magnolia Town, Lucy was feeling depressed.
"Where did everyone go?"
Not long after Lucy spoke, a raindrop landed on her face.
"Is it raining?"
Lucy spread her palms and looked up at the sky.
The originally clear sky had suddenly started pouring rain.
Just then, Lucy saw a woman walking towards her on the street ahead, holding an umbrella.
The woman had wavy, ocean-blue hair, fair skin, and exquisite features.
But the gloomy expression on her pretty face gave people an uncomfortable feeling.
If Kenichi were here, he would definitely recognize this woman.
She was none other than Juvia, one of the Phantom Lord’s Element 4.
Lucy didn't know Juvia. She just glanced at her, then moved to the side of the street to make way for Juvia.
And Juvia acted as if she didn't see Lucy, just walking past.
However, not long after Juvia and Lucy passed each other-
A person suddenly emerged from the ground in front of Juvia.
This person was Sol, one of the Element 4.
"Juvia, this won't do. Your mission is to capture Lucy Heartfilia!"
As soon as Sol finished speaking, Lucy over there was startled.
"Huh? Capture me?!"
Lucy immediately turned to look at the two people behind her.
Juvia, realizing belatedly, then turned to look at Lucy and said in an emotionless tone: "This person is Lucy?"
"Correct!"
Sol struck a strange pose and answered Juvia.
"If it's Lucy, then Juvia will take action!"
After confirmation, Juvia looked at Lucy like a hunter locking onto prey.
Lucy was shocked.
She immediately reached into her backpack for her Celestial Spirit keys.
But upon feeling around, there was nothing inside.
At this moment, Lucy felt as if struck by lightning: ‘I forgot to bring the Celestial Spirit keys!’
"Wait..."
In her shock, Lucy blurted this out to Juvia.
Naturally, Juvia wouldn't listen to Lucy. She directly raised her arm and launched an attack on Lucy.
"Water Lock!"
As Juvia channeled her magical power, the puddles on the ground near Lucy gathered together as if alive and converged towards Lucy's location.
Before Lucy could react, the gathered water formed a spherical water prison.
And Lucy was trapped inside that water prison.
Lucy inside the water prison kept swinging her fists against the prison walls, but it remained motionless.
"Don't waste your energy. No one can break free from Juvia's magic!"
Juvia said emotionlessly to Lucy inside the water prison, then turned to leave.
"Mission accomplished!"
Sol beside Juvia posed his body into a [7] shape and said happily.
However, just as Juvia and Sol took a few steps with Lucy, a black-haired man suddenly appeared out of thin air, blocking their path.
Perhaps Juvia and Sol didn't recognize the person before them.
But Lucy inside the water prison did.
Seeing Kenichi appear, Lucy inside the water prison struggled violently.
She wanted to shout loudly, but couldn't make a sound in the water.
Sol, noticing Lucy's actions, instantly understood.
"Someone's getting in the way. Juvia, he's yours!"
Sol looked at Kenichi in front of him, took a few steps back, and said to Juvia.
"Juvia won't let you interfere!"
Juvia raised her fair hand and directly activated the Water Lock.
It seemed she intended to imprison Kenichi as well.
The moment water gathered at Kenichi's feet, a cold, piercing chill swept out from Kenichi's body.
In the blink of an eye, the water surrounding Kenichi completely froze.
