Yujiro Hanma from Fairy Tail

The next day at Fairy Tail, seven years had passed. The client already had a new guild to commission, and the new client didn't even know Fairy Tail. The main force of Fairy Tail had been back for nearly two weeks, and the guild had no missions to do.

Natsu lay on the table and shouted,"It's so boring. There are no missions to do, and the piggy bank is gone."

At this time, Marcus came over and said,"Natsu, do you want to fight me?"

Natsu and the others looked at Marcus in surprise. You know, Marcus used to be killed instantly.

Natsu said excitedly,"Okay, I'm just bored."

Then the two of them and the guild members walked to the open space outside the guild.

The two were ready, and the battle was about to start.

"Fire Dragon's Iron Fist!"Natsu's hands were wrapped in flames as he attacked Marcus.

"Sand wall!"

"Bang!"Natsu's fist didn't break Marcus's sand barrier at all.

Natsu was surprised and said,"What!!"

"The sand is rebelling!"

Marcus took advantage of Natsu's distraction and threw him away.

Natsu got up and looked at Marcus in disbelief.

"Is this true?! ?"

Natsu found that he was now evenly matched with Marcus, which he could not accept.

Marcus said:"We have not been idle in these seven years, and we have trained well. Although we can't compare with Laxus, we can still fight with you." In the past few years when everyone was away, there were only a few people left in the guild. In order to support the entire guild, they practiced hard, and they became the main force when the main force was not there!

Lucy and Wendy were very surprised and said:"Natsu can't beat Marcus! ?"

Natsu was dissatisfied and said:"Let's continue!"

""The roar of the fire dragon!" Natsu spewed out violent flames from his mouth and attacked Marcus again.

Marcus directly erected a sand barrier around Natsu, and the roar exploded directly beside Natsu.

"Unbelievable?! That Marcus actually suppressed Natsu directly"

"Dragon Slayer Secret Technique: Red Lotus Blade!"

Natsu's flames wrapped around his hands, forming two flaming blades, and his body quickly twisted to form a fire storm.

"Sand wall!"

"Boom!!!" Marcus's barrier was broken directly, and Marcus fell to the ground and said

"I surrender!"

"I say Natsu, we don't need to use this move when we're just sparring!"

Natsu looked at his hands in disbelief. He needed to use the Dragon Slayer Secret Technique to defeat Marcus. This gap was totally unacceptable to Natsu.

"So strong!"

"Natsu is still the same Natsu!"

Marcus said disappointedly:"I didn't expect that I still can't win after 7 years."

Wendy comforted:"Mr. Marcus is still very powerful."

Xia Lulu asked puzzledly:"You have such strength, why are you still bullied by a guild like Dusk Ghost?"

"This is very complicated, involving money, and it cannot be solved by force alone."

Gray looked at the dazed Natsu and said,"It seems that you also understand what the seven-year gap means to us, right?"

"Although their strength is not that far behind, they can no longer easily win compared to before."

The few who returned felt a huge gap, just like the last few people in the class suddenly jumped to the middle level when you were away. It's hard not to doubt life.

Marcus was only an upper-middle level in the guild before, Nazgre was considered a quasi-first-tier, Erza and Mirajane were first-tier, and super-first-tier monsters like Laxus and Gildarts, as well as inhuman strength like Ye, were simply excluded.

"really....Natsu was in a tough fight against Marcus."

"Marcus' level."

Marcus said sadly with tears in his eyes:"Were you really comforting me just now?!"

Happy thought:"Is there any way to increase magic power in one go!"

Soon, several people came to the residence of Fairy Tail's potion consultant Polushica and knocked on the door.

As soon as Polushica opened the door, several people chattered endlessly.

"Get out of here!!"

After saying that, Polucica closed the door.

"Ms. Polyusica, do you have any potion that can increase my strength a hundred times if I take it?"

Lucy complained,"How dare you ask?"

After seeing Polyusica, Wendy always felt that she was very familiar.

Xia Lulu saw Wendy in a daze and asked,"What’s wrong, Wendy?!"

Wendy shook her head and said,"Nothing"

""Squeak!" The door opened and Polucca waved a broom at the men.

"I hate humans! Get out of here! Go!!! Go!!! Go!!!"

""Aiya!!!" Seeing this, several people ran away

"Excuse me!!"

What's wrong with that old woman?!

"She is the old man's ex-girlfriend!"

Poliusica said angrily:"She is not a fool!!"

Several people fled back to the guild.

"That damn old woman doesn't need to give potions or hit people" Natsu complained. Lucy sighed,"In the end, there is still no way, how can we quickly become the number one wizard guild in Fiore again?"

Wendy said,"I didn't expect you to be so proactive, Lucy"

Lucy said helplessly,"Although the landlord didn't ask me for the rent for these seven years, I have to pay it later. Now the reputation of the guild means there are no tasks to do."

Gray suddenly thought,"Can't we just ask the strongest one!"

"That's right! Gray, you are so smart."

Then several people came to Ye with a smile.

Ye looked at them with malicious smiles and said,"What do you want to do?!"

Natsu said directly,"Hehe, we want to know how to become stronger."

Ye understood instantly.

"You have discovered what seven years means."

Everyone nodded.

Erza said,"So we came here to ask you if there is any way to become stronger."

Ye Yaoyao nodded,"No."

Everyone was disappointed and said,"How could this be?"

Ye said,"What are you thinking about? Strength is gained through practice bit by bit. Strength gained through evil ways is flashy and useless."

"I can only give you some suggestions."

"There are more ways to improve your strength than just improving your magic power!"

"what else!"

"You can also improve your skills, develop a variety of practical skills, and improve your body's strength. A strong body can accommodate more magic, but the training of magic cannot be stopped. Since magic can be restored, don't be reluctant to use it. Find a suitable place and use your magic to your heart's content. The more you use it, the deeper you understand your magic. When you reach a limit, your strength will have a qualitative leap."

Eluza said,"We thought wrong."

Ye said,"There are also ways to get stronger quickly."

Natsu was instantly excited and said,"Really?!!"

Ye said seriously,"But this method is not so simple. If you fail, your magic road will collapse. It will be very difficult to make further progress in the future."

Several people listened to what Ye said and showed solemn expressions.

Erza said,"Ye, you talk about it first."

Ye said slowly,"That is to break through your own life and death barrier!"

"Life and death level?!"

Erusa asked:"Is it the one that Laxus broke through during the guild civil war?!"

Ye nodded and said:"Yes! That's the one"

"When you break through the barrier of life and death, nothing will be able to shake you. At that time, your path to the path of magic will be unstoppable, and no obstacles can stop you from moving forward. This is what you must have to become a strong person."

"But it is extremely difficult to break through the barrier of life and death. Not many people can overcome the fear of death. Laxus's pride does not allow him to fail even if it means death. He forces himself to see through life and death. I think Laxus has now reached the level of the top ten saints."

"What!!"

"This is the only way I know of to get stronger in a short period of time."

"When you have this realization, I can help you break through."

After saying that, Ye waved his hand and left the guild, leaving behind a few solemn people.
