Chapter 162: Belief in Power!! Defeated Zeref
🕑 Added 2025-07-11 03:00:03 +0000 UTC【 “Thank you, world…” Just as the White Mage Zeref was about to cross the door, as if sensing something, he paused slightly and suddenly stopped!】
Behind him, Natsu, who was already dead, knelt up amidst raging flames, then slowly stood up and softly said, “The old man always told us, when we walk out that door, we must swear to come back, swear to live.” 】
【 。。。。。】
~Fairy Tail World, Earthland~
“He really revived. Could it be that Lucy has successfully filled in the missing words?”
“Well done, Lucy!!!”
The members of Fairy Tail were all cheering for Lucy! Then, they smiled in unison.
Makarov secretly wiped away tears as he looked at the revived Natsu, then stared at Natsu and shouted loudly,
“If you remember that sentence, then stop breaking the guild door every time you come back!! You bastard.”
【 The scene shifts to Lucy. The originally missing black and red words were filled in by Lucy, emitting a golden light.
“Amazing…” Gray was filled with surprise as he looked at Lucy, who had actually succeeded in completing the missing parts.
Happy even cheered directly, “Great, the words are back to normal.”
But Lucy, who had completed the words, froze there, tears flowing from her eyes, her arm trembling slightly. Accompanied by the sound of her heartbeat, red demonic flames spread from her arm to her face, eroding her body.
“Ah…” Lucy let out a painful scream, her whole body emitting high heat, her right hand turning crimson, and the quill pen falling from her hand!
“Lucy, pull yourself together.” Gray ran over to support her body, but just as he reached out to touch her, he felt a terrifying temperature, “So hot!!”
“It’s so hot… I feel something inside my body!!” Lucy held her arms, her body trembling constantly, sweat dripping from her face, and a flame-like tattoo wrapped around half of her body, causing her whole body to emit high heat.
“Demonic flames…” Gray had already understood at this point.
Lucy braced herself, covering her eyes with difficulty, and said with difficulty, “But this can be a clue, as long as we follow this magic power, we can save Natsu!”
Happy looked at Lucy with some worry, “Maybe it can rewrite the demon inside Natsu… but Lucy will…!”
Gray saw this and immediately squatted beside Lucy, constantly releasing ice magic from his right hand to cool Lucy down, which made her feel much better. Happy also shivered from the sudden cold!
“Let’s save Natsu together!” Gray looked at Lucy seriously, constantly emitting cold air from his hands!
Lucy nodded, and with her right hand, which had been eroded crimson by the demonic flames, she picked up the quill pen from the ground, raised it slightly while trembling, closed her eyes, and began to rewrite again. 】
【 。。。。。】
~Projection of All Worlds~
“I really envy their camaraderie. Enduring the pain of the flames, they still constantly try to rewrite Natsu’s fate.”
“But I didn’t expect Lucy to actually succeed. Natsu’s wounds disappeared, and he was truly resurrected.”
Everyone who watched this was filled with emotion.
They didn’t expect the people inside to be willing to sacrifice their lives for Natsu, not abandoning him because of his identity as a demon. Perhaps this is the bond of friendship…
【 “The wounds are gone?!” White Mage Zeref was also slightly surprised at this moment, then he realized, “That’s right! Where is the Book of END? Did someone rewrite it?”
“But humans cannot use demonic script, even if they can, that person will sooner or later be eroded and fall into darkness.”
Looking at Natsu stumbling to his feet, White Mage Zeref’s eyes were filled with only coldness, “Although your resurrection is a miracle, there won’t be a second time.”
“The life of the rewriter cannot hold on.” 】
【 。。。。。】
Type-Moon ~Type-Moon World, ██████ Worldline~
~Chaldea~
After seeing Zeref’s explanation, Da Vinci finally understood how much pain Lucy had endured to rewrite the words!
“She will actually be eroded and fall into darkness and even lose her life… Before, I thought it was just a backlash from the demonic flames in the book.”
But is this really good? According to Natsu’s personality, even if Natsu survives, what will he think and do once he knows that Lucy died to save him… It is the survivor who suffers the most in the world.
~Fairy Tail World, Earthland~
“Demonic script?! No wonder I couldn’t understand it.”
“But how did Lucy understand the words inside? And she can write…!”
After hearing Zeref’s words, everyone at the banquet was incredibly surprised. They had never heard that Lucy had this skill!
Looking at Lucy, who was enduring pain to save him, Natsu didn’t know what to say, and could only stammer out a random sentence.
“Lucy… don’t do this again… It’s too risky.”
Lucy was happy that her future self could help Natsu:
“Natsu… you have to believe in me, believe in your companions! We will definitely save you.”
【 “Remember, what are we fighting for!” Natsu gritted his teeth, clenched his fist tightly, and stepped forward with his right foot. This belief was re-ignited into raging flames on his body.
“Everything is for Fairy Tail! This belief is our last strength! And the strongest strength.”
Natsu’s flames of belief were easily blocked by White Zeref’s outstretched hand, and his other hand also wrapped around black magic power and attacked forward at will.
Natsu could only jump back to avoid it, and then a roar was again easily blocked by White Zeref at will!
Natsu’s flames would constantly increase with his emotions, and the two gradually fought back and forth, with red and black flames and blue and black light constantly intertwined.
Until the two gritted their teeth and collided head to head!
“How long are you going to hinder me?” White Zeref was a little impatient, but he was punched in the face by Natsu!
“Until we get back to the days when everyone laughed together.”
White Zeref condensed dark magic power in his right hand and punched back, saying sternly, “Am I not about to create such a world?”
Natsu was knocked back a few steps by this blow, slowly steadied himself, gritted his teeth and denied, “No, you only thought about yourself.”
“What you plan to do will negate this world.” After Natsu finished speaking, the Fairy Tail guild mark on his arm began to emit light, and raging flames erupted from his body.
“Burn, everything about me. Turn the power of the guild into flames.” Natsu roared up to the sky, and the entire screen turned crimson, filled with scorching flames.
“Ah!!!”
White Zeref saw this and slightly tilted his head, his pupils shrinking slightly, then slowly stretched out his hands, “My curse, anger, sorrow, turn all darkness into my power.”
As White Zeref walked forward, countless black magic flames gathered on him, then erupted, turning into endless power, and he said sternly, “Dark Explosion Array!!! Disappear! Natsu!”
“Fire Dragon King’s Crushing Fist!!!” Natsu roared, and his right hand wrapped in flames swung out violently, “This is the end! Zeref!”
The black flames and red flames fiercely contended with each other as the two collided with their fists, and then from the moment they touched, a dazzling white light rushed out of the guild! Forming a towering beam of light that even the guild members far away could see.
The unconscious First Master Mavis was also awakened by this fierce collision and looked over.
“Ah!!” With Natsu’s roar, the flames of the two were deadlocked, neither side gaining an advantage.
Suddenly, White Zeref’s pupils shrank. He felt the temperature coming from his hand and said in disbelief, “So hot!!”
“It’s being burned… my magic… my time is being burned.”
Natsu’s right hand also began to gradually turn black, as if it had been swallowed by his own flames!
Zeref saw this change, looked at Natsu’s desperate eyes, and stood there stunned: “Burning his own soul… this is Natsu’s flame! The guild’s flame…”
Then White Zeref was completely swallowed by Natsu’s flames, “Holy flames?!… No, it’s flames filled with violent emotions.”
He was sent flying out, rolled a few times, and then fell heavily on the ground, recovering from the White Zeref state to his previous state.
“My body can’t move… Is this…?!” Speaking of this, he couldn’t help but mock himself: “I can’t die, I will definitely recover soon.”
Natsu’s right hand could no longer see any intact skin; his entire right arm was pitch black as if it had suffered severe burns.
He spoke softly to Mavis, who was slowly standing up behind him, “You can take it from here! First, I’m tired, I really want to see Happy and the others!”
“Goodbye, big brother!” Natsu stretched out his left hand to say goodbye and then walked out of the guild. 】
【 。。。。。】
~Projection of All Worlds~
“Even if Zeref gave up this feeling in the end, Natsu still recognized him as his brother.”
“Actually, in the end, this was just a brother who went down the wrong path, and in the end was woken up by his younger brother!”
“But did he really win like this? Isn’t Zeref immortal? Perhaps he will really recover soon as he said.”
“But this is also the best ending. Zeref was defeated but not killed, so Natsu won’t die either! It’s a win-win situation.”
The people watching the video were deeply moved by Natsu’s final address to Zeref.
Zeref wanted to cut off their feelings, but Natsu did not deny their relationship in the end.
~Jujutsu Kaisen World, Future Timeline~
“Can I do that too?!”
Jogo was completely stunned after watching this. He didn’t expect flames to be able to reach such a level! Not only magic but even time was completely burned away.
What surprised him the most was that he could burn his own soul to increase the power of his flames.
~Akame ga Kill! World~
Esdeath sat on a high chair, crossing her legs, and supporting her face with one hand,
“My Mahapadma can freeze time and space for a short period of time, I’m afraid even this won’t be able to do anything to Natsu...”
She was no stranger to flame abilities, but she had never seen anyone who could achieve the extreme, just like she had taken ice to the extreme, able to freeze time and space.
It was a pity that such an existence was not in her world, otherwise she couldn’t help but want to challenge him.
~Type-Moon World, Kaleid liner Prisma Illya Worldline~
“Is Natsu’s hand okay?!”
Illya was a little worried that Natsu’s hand might be completely crippled? After all, according to Zeref, he burned his own soul.
“I don’t know, but this is the best ending.”
Miyu shook her head, looking at Natsu’s final farewell. She also missed her brother a little, I couldn’t say goodbye to him properly in the end.
Magical Ruby suddenly spoke:
“Zeref craves death… but this time he still couldn’t be killed, and the method he chose was also stopped by Natsu!”
“Because of the curse, will he have to continue to live alone in a desolate place forever in the future?”
Miyu was also a little sad:
“If that’s the case, it’s too pitiful.”
~Fairy Tail World, Earthland~
Magic King August was a little disbelieving:
“Your Majesty actually lost…”
In his eyes, he had never thought that Zeref would lose. Fortunately, his father and mother were still alive in the end!
At this moment, the demons of Tartaros were even more excited, looking at the Book of END in Mard Geer’s hand, feeling full of hope.
“Finally… As expected of the strongest demon END…! With him here, our long-cherished wish will also be fulfilled.”
Although they didn’t kill Zeref in the end, they also saw the opportunity to achieve their long-cherished wish. There was no doubt that Natsu was the key for them.
They must hurry and welcome back the true Guild Master of Tartaros, END Natsu!
On the other side, the guild members who saw Zeref fall to the ground in the end were first silent and then erupted with unprecedented cheers.
“Yoho!! Great job, Natsu…”
“I didn’t expect Natsu to actually defeat that Black Mage; this is simply a miracle.”
The other members of the guild hugged each other in pairs, celebrating this hard-won victory.
Looking at the cheering crowd, First Master Mavis felt a little sad in her heart. She looked at Zeref, who had fallen on the screen and tried to hold back the tears in her eyes.
“Zeref…”
Mavis murmured,
“In terms of strength alone, there is indeed an insurmountable gap; however, if there is a power that can overcome this gap, then that is… that is the power of .....”
“This is also the reason why you lost to Natsu… Zeref..”
Speaking of this, tears unconsciously flowed from Mavis’s eyes.
