Original subtitles

So there are humans who say amusing things.

Beat me, the King of the Underworld?

Humans?

That's right!

Sabertooth's Twin Dragons, Sting and Rogue, came to help,

which allowed Erza and Minerva to escape the danger.

Those two, along with Happy, Lily, Lecter and Froche,

went looking for the control room so they could halt the activation of Face.

I think we cannot destroy them unless we use the true power of Etherious.

Now I'm serious!

Meanwhile, Natsu went into Lightning Fire Dragon Mode

and Gajeel went into Iron Shadow Dragon Mode to tackle Torafuzar and Tempester,

who turned into their Etherious forms to take on the Fairy Tail duo.

What's with these two?!

Crimson Lotus Exploding Lightning Blade!

Roar of the Iron Shadow Dragon!

I invite you to the Underworld's deep sea.

Plunge the world into darkness!

Due to Torafuzar's darkness attack,

Natsu, Lucy, and Juvia were incapacitated.

In the middle of battle,

Gajeel was in a bind when he ran out of air and was unable to breathe.

But then...

Outta the way!

Levy!

Get ahold of yourself! Levy!

You gave me air, didn't you?

Do it again!

Again...

Tartaros Arc: Steel

I... I didn't...

I just shared my air with you...

Whatever! Just do it now!

Give some to Salamander and the others, too!

I can't! I'm out of air...

...and besides, you just happened to be nearby, so I shared all of it with you...

Don't space out!

I'm talkin' magic! Make some air!

That's right. I should've used Air Magic from the beginning...

How embarrassing...

Solid Script! Air!

Sorry!

Air?!

Take care of Salamander and the others!

Right!

You saved me, Levy.

I can change my body's solidity.

I, Torafuzar, boast the strongest defensive power of all Nine Demon Gates.

Your iron can't break me.

M-My hand...

Covering your skin in iron

apparently slowed the absorption of the water's toxicity,

but now it seems the poison has spread throughout your body.

Time's up.

Soon, the poison will have spread through everyone,

murdering all who are submerged here.

I can produce air, but this water contains carbon.

If we keep absorbing it...

This is your limit.

Gajeel!

You again, Gajeel of Phantom Lord?

Good grief.

How many times has it been this year?

Wait, Gajeel.

You again?

I've told you again and again,

but you should leave Phantom.

I'm sick of hearin' it. Mind your own business.

Phantom's recent movements are intolerable.

At this rate...

Hey, old hag.

Are you givin' orders to Gajeel, the Iron Dragon Slayer?

I'll say it as many times as I have to.

I've seen plenty of youngsters like you,

and all of them have been lonely at heart.

Why, you...

I'm not telling you to live on the straight and narrow.

But find a way to live that has meaning.

Oh, I got meaning!

I'm goin' to war next.

Against those Fairy ass-wipes.

This is definitely the one we want! This, right here!

Look, Natsu! How many times do I have to tell you?

What are you talkin' about? This job's simple as a pimple!

"Looking for someone to teach me how to cook up delicious fish," right?

If you did it, the fish wouldn't be cooked, it'd be charred!

That's right! Number one!

When it comes to grilled fish, you need me there!

Actually, I like raw best, but...

Bull! You wanna have a showdown to see who can grill better, Happy?

Aye, sir! You took the words right out of my mouth!

Hey! Why does it have to come to this?!

Hey! You don't need to grill fish right here!

My fish is fired up!

This is the one thing I can't lose at!

Stop it! What is this low-level showdown?!

You've changed.

Gajeel.

Shut up, little girl.

You said it again!

We were too late.

It doesn't look like there was a struggle.

I suspect she was assassinated.

Dammit!

If only I'd gotten here a little earlier...

Gajeel...

A way to live that has meaning...

Old woman...

In the end, I never did get to have a decent conversation with you.

Even though you took an interest in me...

...even when I was a little snot...

...I couldn't repay your kindness!

I'll avenge you!

No...

I'll remember your words.

That's the best answer I've got right now.

You once told me...

You remind me a lot of my dead son.

That's unlucky!

Watch me from heaven, you old bag!

I'm not the iron jackass you knew!

I don't know if I'm livin' the kind of meaningful life you had in mind...

...but I wanna protect the people around me!

No... I will protect 'em!

That's the meaning...

...of my life!

It can't be! Mere iron can't get through my defense...

Wait... That isn't iron!

By absorbing the carbon particles floating in this sea of darkness...

Iron plus carbon...

Steel...

He's become steel?!

Steel Dragon Sword!

Don't forget... the song,

Salamander.

Crap...

Still one left...

Nuts...

You beat Torafuzar, but now you're out of magic?

Then your life ends here, human.

I remember.

I encountered you then...

I won't let anyone die! No one's dyin' here!

Laxus! Keep your mouth shut!

Laxus!

But you inhaled my anti-magic particles...

Again... I'm...

But that's fine. I'll just eliminate the obstacle in front of me.

Zoom.

Ignite.

Again... I'm...

Look out!

Bastard! How did you counteract the poison?!

Whirlwind.

You're the one who harmed my comrades...

You hurt Fairy Tail!

Then, just like that time...

Bring it.

Fine.

Boulder.

Boom.

Boulders.

Whirlwind.

Why doesn't he attack?

Don't tell me...

It can't be...

Are you really a human?

W-What does he mean?

That body is still full of anti-magic particles!

Even your internal organs must be falling apart.

Is that why you didn't attack me?

Now that you're on to me...

...I better take you out fast.

But this is as far as you get.

Whoosh!

Laxus!

Lukewarm flames.

These flames can't even burn me!

Bastard, how can you keep fighting when your body's like that?!

Because you scumbags hurt my guild!

He's strong...

Laxus!

In that instant...

Scum...

Too bad.

Surely no other human could fight like that with their body

pumped full of anti-magic particles.

However, I'm sure you've just about hit your limit.

You're out of your league, human.

I am one of the Nine Demon Gates of Tartaros,

the immortal Tempester!

Whirlwind!

Electric Current Underjaw!

I'm not going to lose to the same opponent twice.

That's my line.

Let's meet in hell, dead ones.

You hurt my family a second time...

I'm gonna crush you with these two hands.

Even though his body is worn away by anti-magic particles,

Laxus is kept strong by feelings for his comrades as he fights the enemy.

However, his opponent is the supposedly immortal Tempester.

Their battle heats up, with neither giving an inch.

Meanwhile, Erza and Kyoka confront each other again in front of the wrecked control room.

The life-and-death battle with the Nine Demon Gates finally enters its last phase.

Next time: Tartaros Arc: Final Duel.

Tartaros Arc: Final Duel

The beginning of the end.
