Corvin's motion of sitting still caught the attention of Natsu and Gajeel again.
Natsu couldn't help but ask, "Kevin? What's wrong with you?"
"Take a rest." Ke Wen responded, "I will fight with their ghost ghost president later, so I need to recover first."
Natsu immediately believed it after hearing this, but still emphasized again, "Then you can't interfere in my battle!"
"Don't worry." Ke Wen waved his hand, "I will never interfere."
Natsu smiled with satisfaction, and then urged Gajeel again to quickly eat iron and recover.
Ke Wen lied again.
But it was because he remembered something.
In the original plot, Natsu was inspired and reminded by Erza, thus liberating some of the power hidden in his body, which greatly improved his strength.
Later, in the battle with Gajeel, Natsu was severely beaten by Gajeel, who was recovering from "eating iron" at any time due to lack of magic power.
In the end, Lucy, who was kidnapped, summoned the 'celestial spirit' and created flames to help Natsu recover some of his physical strength and magic power. Only then did Natsu and Gajeel fight to the death together.
Now, because of Ke Wen's intervention, the plot has changed.
Not only was Lucy not captured by Gajeel, but Erza was also placed on the coastline by Coven.
Therefore, Kewen estimated that Natsu was going to lose, so he found an excuse to stay.
He really wanted to restore the magic power completely and delay it so that the severe pain in his body could be alleviated as much as possible. In addition, he also had to take care of Natsu...
At this time, a crisp sound of 'click, click, click' sounded in the quiet hall.
Gajeel finally crawled to a pile of metal, grabbed the metal and stuffed it into his mouth, his hard teeth easily biting the metal into pieces.
As Gajeel swallowed the metal, the black scars on his body began to recover very obviously, and the magic power in his body gradually became active.
Not long after, Gajeel finally stood up from his sitting position, glanced angrily at Coven, and then looked at Natsu, who had been waiting for a long time.
Gajeel turned his head and spat out a mouthful of metal shards, and then quickly rushed towards Natsu without any warning against Corwin.
The battle started, and the two 'Dragon Slayers', one fire and one iron, started a fierce battle.
The fists wrapped in flames turned into hard metal fists. The attacks from both sides continued to fall on their opponents. The collision of 'bang bang bang' reverberated throughout the hall.
Natsu and Gajeel both released the magic power in their bodies. Their skins turned into dragons one after another, with dense dragon scale-like marks appearing. Their pupils also completely stood up and turned into dragon pupils.
After a while, the two of them flew upside down in a collision, and at the same time they took a deep breath.
"Roar!"
"Roar!"
Two dragon roars appeared, Natsu's mouth came out with the 'roar of the fire dragon', and Gajeel's mouth came out with the 'roar of the iron dragon'.
However, after all, the substantive ‘Iron Dragon’s Roar’ does more damage.
After the two roars collided, Gajeel's metal storm finally broke through Natsu's flame breath and knocked Natsu away.
The body was pushed backwards by the iron dragon's breath, and finally hit the wall, causing a large, broken crater to appear on the wall.
After the dragon's breath dissipated, Natsu struggled to get up with cuts all over his body, panting and showing an unbelievable look.
"Hmph!" Gajeel did not pursue the victory, but mocked with disdain, "It's disappointing, Fire Dragon, your flames are really delicate."
Patting his metal dragon scale arm, Gajeel said without interest, "After fighting for a long time, you can't even break through my dragon scale. You're too weak!"
"Damn it!" Natsu growled through gritted teeth unwillingly, "How could..."
"Natsu!"
Coven's voice suddenly sounded, causing Natsu to raise his head and Gajeel to turn around in caution.
Without looking at Gajeel, Coven stared at Natsu and said in a calm tone, "Is this the only level of your consciousness? You have been shouting about challenging this and challenging that all day long..."
Halfway through the words, Ke Wen sighed with a disappointed look, and then said, "With such weak strength, do you really think you can protect your companions and maintain the guild?"
Natsu lowered his head so that no one could see his face.
However, Ke Wen could sense that the magic power was surging fiercely in Natsu's body at this time.
Knowing that the last push was still needed, Ke Wen continued, "We are also a 'Dragon Slayer', so why is his strength so high? Not only is his magic power greater than yours, but the quality of his magic power is also stronger than yours.
"
"Could it be that..." Ke Wen finally gave the harsh medicine, "Is the fire dragon weaker than the iron dragon?"
"say no more!"
Natsu shouted loudly, and the magic power in his body began to dissipate, causing a high-temperature and distorted scene to appear around him.
However, the magic power in Natsu's body still has not fully exploded.
Seeing this, Ke Wen immediately said, "Or, Natsu, you usually neglect to exercise? Have you never thought about developing the power hidden in your body?"
Natsu was stunned for a moment, his eyes slightly blank.
After Gajeel listened to Coven's words, he couldn't help but look at Natsu again with some curiosity.
After all, as a 'same kind', Gajeel was also curious about what happened to Natsu. He was also taught by dragons, so how could he be so much weaker than him.
At this moment, in Ke Wen's perception, the magic power in Naz's body finally exploded.
boom--
Violent flames suddenly burst out of Natsu's body, automatically converging into the shape of a dragon with wings spread, completely covering Natsu's body in the flames.
His vision returned to focus, and Natsu looked at Gajeel expressionlessly, and said in a calm voice, "I'm sorry, I was indeed wrong before! Now, let you try my flame full of enlightenment again!"
"Hmph..." Gajeel showed a satisfied look and assumed an attacking posture with excitement, "Then let me break your false perceptions again!"
Click! Boom!
The two of them crushed the ground beneath their feet at the same time, and their bodies instantly collided with each other. They each raised their legs to sweep out, and they were locked in a stalemate in mid-air.
The collision of magic power, the collision of flame and metal, and the strong shock wave instantly erupted from the two people's connecting legs, setting off a huge air wave in the entire hall.
Bang bang bang!
A louder sound of fists and fists was heard, and the fists and kicks of the two people kept falling on their opponents. This time, Gajeel could not help but show a look of pain.
Next, after nearly five minutes of beating each other, both of them showed signs of weakness.
Their arms and legs had begun to tremble, and both of them were holding on with faith.
After a fist landed on their opponent's cheek, both of them tilted their heads back, then gritted their teeth and knocked their heads forward at the same time.
"Fire Dragon's——"
"Iron Dragon's——"
The two of them shouted in unison, "Sword horn——"
clang--
The crisp impact echoed in the hall.
Blood burst out from Natsu and Gajeel's foreheads, and they staggered back with erratic steps.
In the end, Natsu managed to steady himself after taking five or six steps back, while Gajeel tripped over a raised metal floor and sat on the ground with a 'bang'.
"Hahaha……"
Natsu was a little cross-eyed, staring at Gajeel's side and laughing loudly and announced, "Iron bitch bastard! I win this time!"
"You, what sweet dream are you dreaming about!"
Gajeel was also dizzy, his neck seemed unable to support his head, causing his head to sway.
After retorting, Gajeel's eyes suddenly moved down, focusing on the metal floor that tripped him.
Grinning, Gajeel stretched out his hand and pulled off the half-lifted floorboard, stuffed it into his mouth and swallowed it with a crunch.
Natsu was completely dumbfounded, and then shouted angrily, "Iron bitch bastard! You are so cunning! You are the only one who can eat!"
"Hehe..." Gajeel smirked and kept swallowing the metal floor, and quickly stood up while wiping the corners of his mouth.
Nearly half of his physical strength has been restored, and his magic power is abundant again.
Looking at Natsu who was very weak across from him, Gajeel raised his arm with a sinister expression, "Iron Dragon's..."
"Natsu!"
Kewen's voice suddenly sounded, causing Gajeel to shiver.
He was so focused on fighting Natsu before that he even forgot that there was another person around him.
He quickly turned his head and looked at Ke Wen warily.
However, just as he turned his head halfway, Gajeel suddenly noticed a ball of flame flying past him.
With a 'crunch', Gajeel's neck suddenly stopped, and he looked at Natsu again. The scene he saw made Gajeel gasp.
Natsu had already caught the flame and was stuffing the golden flame into his mouth.
While eating, Natsu said in surprise, "Kevin!!! What kind of flame are you!!! Why is it so delicious!!!"
The voice was so surprising that Natsu's words trembled slightly.
"That's divine fire."
Ke Wen said with a smile, "Isn't that flame pretty good?"
“More than good!”
Natsu finished eating the flames, stared at his raised hands, clenched his fists and shouted excitedly, "This flame is so powerful! I'm on fire!!!"
boom--
There was an even more violent explosion than before. Golden flames formed around Natsu, forming a nearly ten-meter-long flame dragon. It was looking down at Gajeel with its head raised, looking down at Gajeel very threateningly.
"What the hell!" Gajeel turned around in a state of collapse and yelled at Kowen, "Didn't you say you wouldn't interfere!?"
Ke Wen stood up slowly, patted the dust behind his butt and shrugged his shoulders, "It's just feeding, how can it be considered as intervening in the battle? Aren't you also eating iron?"
Ke Wen couldn't help but chuckle at his shamelessness, then turned around and walked up the stairs to the upper level.
Behind him, along with Gajeel's curses, Natsu's excited shouts soon sounded.
boom--
The strong shock wave appeared again, pushing Ke Wen's body and sending him to the end of the stairs...
