Don't give up, humans!

That big-ass face...

It pisses me off.

I can't believe we couldn't destroy it with Christine's cannons...

Ichiya-san, what should we do?

Never mind about the cannons. The ship's losing magic fast.

We're gonna drop!

Is this where it ends?

Move back.

Who's that?

There!

Evasive action!

What was that?!

A bird?

Grandine!

That's... a dragon.

What's it doing?

Anyway, let's hurry.

To Magnolia...

The Face marks are disappearing one after another!

Metallicana...

I sense Weisslogia... but he should be dead...

Skiadrum is here, too?

The unleashed dragons...

...are dancing in the sky over Ishgar.

It's a miracle...

Awesome...

You...

Not budging in the least...

Is the magic already gone?

I can't move...

That's it...

Kagura-chan! Look! Something's coming!

What is it?

That's...

...Grandine!

With just one blow!

What was that?!

A huge kitty-cat?

No. It may have been...

...a dragon!

None of my magic has an effect on it?!

My uselessness is pathetic!

Is this some kind of joke?

Is this a dream... or reality?!

What might! What destructive force!

A dragon is our savior?!

Tartaros Arc: Drops of Flame

I sense it...

Weisslogia...

What is it?!

Something's approaching!

It's a dragon!

Now there's even a dragon overhead?!

It's all over!

Retreat! Run!

Skiadrum...

The dragon...

...destroyed that thing!

What the hell is going on here?!

Um... What does this mean?

What's going on outside?!

Ichiya-san! Christina's magic is being replenished!

How about communications?

Messages are coming in from guilds all over!

"A dragon came flying in,

and is destroying Face!"

What does it mean?

Unbelievable! The Face units are going down, one after another!

How much will our loss be?! How much?!

Whoa...

Yes!

All the Faces are gone!

How?

I have no idea.

Neither does Fro!

Anyway...

Yes. Now magic...

...won't disappear from the world.

The dragons...

...destroyed those Face things across the continent.

I feel it! The magic is back!

Then it's over.

But...

...the power of human wizards...

...is still so small.

Dragons!

I never dreamed that dragons would save the continent.

We prevented END's resurrection.

We won.

This is bad!

Without the return of Master END, what's the probability of my survival? How much?

Defeat...

Weisslogia was...

...alive all this time?!

Skiadrum, Metallicana, and Grandine, too...

All of us were inside the Dragon Slayers' bodies.

Or to be more precise, we were lying dormant inside your bodies

through a secret art.

And when I felt that pulsating...

...that was you rising up inside of me?

That's right! Come to think of it, I didn't ask about that.

Why the hell were you inside my body?!

I don't remember eatin' you!

There are two reasons for that.

The first is him.

It was to prevent

Dragon Slayers from turning into dragons, like Acnologia.

You know, this other dragon, Zirconis, said something like that.

He was once human, huh?

Yes.

The other reason...

Igneel!

I'll tell you after I deal with him!

Get that book!

Igneel!

What did he just say?

Book?

This book, right?

The Book of END.

Gray...

I made a promise...

...to defeat END without fail.

Jackass...

To keep Dragon Slayers from transforming into dragons...

...you inhabited their bodies?

What is your aim?!

You feared END and now he is gone.

Leave the humans alone!

Feared?

The likes of a demon from the Books of Zeref?

Nonsense.

I am Acnologia, King of the Dragons!

You were once human, too!

I won't let you make Natsu and the others like you!

My desire is the destruction of everything.

Destruction! Destruction!

Natsu-san, Gray-san, both of you, stop it!

This is why Fairy Tail is...

It's gone!

Gray!

It wasn't me!

This is my book.

I'm taking it back.

It's an important book.

It's gone!

Gray!

It wasn't me!

This is my book.

I'm taking it back.

It's an important book.

Zeref!

That's...

Mard Geer...

You did well.

You were one step away from reviving END.

Now you can sleep.

Mard Geer...

...can bring about...

...whatever you desire...

No.

You can't.

You!

You created that demon yourself!

True.

But I had no more need of it.

I came here to settle things once and for all between us.

But Acnologia got in the way.

Will he end history once again?

Or will a miracle happen?

I don't know.

What are you talkin' about?

If you can survive these hopeless circumstances...

...then...

...I will give you even more despair.

That bastard...

He took the book!

Zeref...

Destruction...

Destruction!

Is this all the power you possess,

King of the Fire Dragons?

Well, I was asleep for a long time.

Natsu...

Igneel!

There is something I need to tell you while I have the chance.

There were two reasons we dragons lived inside

the bodies of you Dragon Slayers.

The first was as I said, to prevent you from turning into dragons

by creating antibodies.

Owing to that, there is almost no chance you will ever become dragons.

Natsu!

I never showed myself before under any circumstances

because I was busy making these antibodies.

And the other reason

was to defeat our negative legacy, Acnologia, ourselves.

We were waiting for an opportunity.

You can tell me all that later!

Wait, Igneel!

I'm comin' to help you!

You must stay away!

Acnologia is stronger than I expected.

You don't want to get involved in this.

Sure I do!

You an' me together, we'll be invincible!

I was waiting for this moment.

The moment I could kill Acnologia with my own claws!

Natsu...

Natsu!

Dad, I got it!

All right! Now get cooking.

You'll provide the fire, right?

What are you talking about? You can do that yourself!

Tch! What, again?

It's what you have to do if you wish to eat. So go ahead!

I did it! How's that?! Perfect, right?

All of the words are spelled wrong. Start over!

What, again?!

Quit griping and just do it!

Darn it! Fine, watch this! I'll get it perfect this time!

This feels great!

Hold on tight!

Dad, don't go crazy!

You're crying over a little height?

Here we go!

I... I didn't fall off! How was that?!

We're not done!

I'm still not gonna fall off!

Watch this, Dad!

Here I go!

Roar of the Fire Dragon!

How was that?!

You call that a roar? It wouldn't even cook a meal.

What's that?!

Watch.

Roar of the...

...Fire Dragon!

You shouldn't cut down mountains, Dad.

I guess that was a bit too much.

Awesome!

All right, I can do that, too!

Accumulate as much power as you can in your belly.

Then do it again and again.

Leave it to me!

Natsu...

I've been watching you grow up all this time.

You've gotten... so big.

The days I spent with you

were the happiest ones of my life.

You gave me the power to love.

Igneel!

The battle is over.

Fairy Tail pulled off a victory at the cost of many irreplaceable things.

In the newly battle-scarred wilderness,

while the dragons reveal the startling truth,

Natsu can't stop the tears from trickling down his face

as his father's unforgettable words become etched in his heart.
