96. Chapter 96 Rhodes’ Rules
Chapter 96 Rhodes’ Rules
Natsu was overjoyed. He didn’t know since when, Laxus usually spent less and less time in the guild, and he couldn’t be found even if he wanted to.
Even if he came to the guild, he would always rest on the second floor by himself and ignored his challenge.
Today he finally caught him, and he agreed! ”Okay, let’s start, I’m excited!” Natsu turned and left.
Alba Green snapped her folding fan shut, pointed at Natsu’s back and asked: “What are you doing? Are you running away before it even starts? You really know how strong Laxus is, and you are just talking about the challenge, but you don’t dare to fight at all?”
”Ah?” Natsu turned around and asked with a puzzled look, “What are you talking about? If you want to duel, shouldn’t you go to the backyard?”
Bigusro asked puzzledly: “When did the guild have such a rule?”
His little puppets flew up and down, repeating: “When, when? Rules, rules…”
Ro De pressed his temple: “This person is so noisy, and the emblem is printed on his tongue…”
Mira said: “That is Bigusro’s spirit summoning magic. He can control those puppets to fight. Most people who meet him will be knocked down before they can get close to him.”
”Spirit summoning magic, Nabu also uses it, right?”
”Yes, but Nabu is ‘animal spirit possession’, Bigusro is ‘possession puppet’, although it is the same kind of magic, but the use method is completely different.”
Magic is free, you can choose the way you like to use it, Rhodes has a little more experience.
Hearing the word “rules”, Freed seemed to have triggered a keyword and said seriously: “If there are such rules, then we should abide by them, because rules are absolute.”
However, Natsu just did it subconsciously. Now he was confused and turned to look at others: “By the way, are there such rules in the guild?”
Two voices sounded at the same time: “How can there be such rules! (Of course there are!)”
The onlookers were immediately divided into two groups. One group always thought that fighting was something that could be fought wherever one wanted.
The other group thought that it didn’t matter where the fight took place, but challenges and duels should be held in the backyard.
They themselves couldn’t remember when they came up with this idea.
And the culprit of the incident, Mr. Luo, didn’t know it yet: “Is there such a rule?”
Mira smiled secretly: “Do you think that those who think there are such rules look familiar?”
Rod took a closer look, and well… they were all challenged by him.
Ah? The rules I set? “I’m just afraid of breaking things in the tavern…”
Some things always become the ‘rules’ that are inexplicably agreed upon, such as the bag-scissors-hammer, the palm and back of the hand, and the generals and soldiers…
“Are there more boring things in this guild?” Laxus felt troubled and threw back the coat he was wearing.
Fried naturally took the coat and put it on his arm, like a…
Rod rubbed his eyes and confirmed with Mira: “Fried, is he a man?”
“Of course.” Mira said, “But he is not good at socializing. He may only appear in the guild a little more often than Mistgang. No one knows him very well.”
Another weirdo, weird in every sense.
Laxus stretched out a hand and hooked it gently at Natsu: “Come on, Natsu, I don’t need such a spacious place to deal with you.”
”Don’t look down on me, I’ve become much stronger!” Natsu was too lazy to change his position and rushed forward directly, “Fire Dragon’s Iron Fist!”
Laxus stood still and grabbed Natsu’s wrist: “Oh? Are you really getting stronger?”
Jet was surprised: “You caught Natsu’s fist so easily!”
Troy said: “That’s Laxus.”
Levy was a little uneasy and leaned back, hitting the back of her head on the hard chest armor: “Eluza?”
A sense of security came up.
Eluza watched the battle seriously:
After Natsu’s fist was caught, he kicked immediately, and Laxus easily blocked it and threw Natsu away with his backhand.
Natsu flipped in the air, and after landing, he rushed forward again, punching and kicking continuously. Although all of them were blocked, Erza nodded with satisfaction: “Yeah, Natsu has really become stronger.”What’s so strong about him? Isn’t he completely suppressed?” Gray felt that the fight lasted so long not because Natsu was strong, but because Laxus didn’t take it seriously.
Happy ran to Cana and said, “I’ve changed my mind. I’ll bet on Laxus to win.”
Kana refused, “No, the bet is closed.”
”Why is this happening?” Happy had no choice but to turn around and said, “Come on, Natsu!”
Loki smiled and said, “Do you have to do this to cheer for Natsu?”
”Manly!”
Laxus once again repelled Natsu, with a hint of golden lightning on his arm, “It’s a bit disappointing if he’s only at this level.”
”Hee… He’s really strong!” Natsu laughed instead. He took a deep breath and said, “The roar of the fire dragon! ”
The crowd quickly retreated. They were all experienced wizards who watched the excitement and would not be affected by this.
But the floor and the tables and chairs were not so lucky. Some were burnt and some were blown away.
Rod felt distressed. This is why I have to fight outside.
Laxus stood there motionless, hugging his arms and letting the flames engulf him.
Natsu wiped the corner of his mouth and said excitedly: “How about this move? Laxus!”
Laxus waved his hand, and a trace of lightning flashed around him, and the flames disappeared: “Ah? What’s the matter?”
Then he dusted off his clothes: “Forget it, I’m tired of it. ”
A golden lightning bolt appeared out of nowhere, covering Natsu.
”Wa … ”
Natsu was hit hard in the abdomen, followed by his face, chest, back…
Fists and kicks with lightning kept falling on Natsu, leaving him powerless to fight back.
Bang! With the last blow, Natsu fell to the ground.
Laxus moved his neck a few times: “You, the only thing you can be praised for is your endurance. Are you still unwilling to admit defeat?”
”It’s… still early…” Natsu staggered to his feet again.
”You clingy guy, it’s about time you understand the difference in strength!”
Laxus raised his right fist, and amazing magic power burst out from his body, and lightning gathered on him.
Eruza felt bad and couldn’t help but want to stop him: “Laxus!”
But she was a step too late. The terrifying lightning enveloped Natsu, and the dazzling light made it difficult to see Natsu’s figure.
”Ahhhhh…”
”Natsu! “Happy was frightened this time, tears hung from the corners of his eyes.
But Natsu’s screams did not last long, instead the lightning quickly dimmed, and was finally sucked into Natsu’s mouth like a stream of water.
”What? !” Even Laxus couldn’t control himself and showed a surprised expression.
