Erza's gaze turned to the center of the battlefield.
She seemed to recall the events at the Tower of Heaven.
At that time, Finn had concentrated all of his flames into his sword, successfully withstanding the impact of the Magic Barrier.
And this time was remarkably similar to that time.
"A technique that seals the flames within the sword?" Gildarts murmured.
"Extremely compressed to achieve greater attack power?" Laxus said, stating his understanding.
Erza nodded after recalling the events.
"That's probably it, but the power will be much more terrifying."
"Like…"
Erza racked her brains, trying to think of a descriptive word.
"One swing! And it's all over!" Erza finally said slowly.
"!!!"
Hearing Erza's description, everyone was shocked.
"Just how terrifying is this power to be described like that?" Gajeel's eyes widened.
"That's the power that could completely erase the Magic Barrier!" Erza's eyes were fixed on Finn, with a hint of anticipation in them.
"You have to win… Finn!" she whispered.
"That's not right!" Makarov said, frowning.
Makarov's exclamation attracted everyone's attention.
"Master Grandpa, is Erza wrong?" Wendy asked, confused.
Makarov raised his hand. His aged hand now seemed somewhat dry.
"Moisture is being lost little by little…" he said slowly after a moment of silence.
Hearing Makarov's words, Lucy's eyes widened.
"That's right, I was wondering why my throat felt so dry…"
As if realizing something, Gildarts touched the corner of his mouth.
Even Gildarts, a powerful mage, had cracked lips.
"Could it be… that we're also being affected by the extremely high temperature?" Gildarts said, stating his guess.
"It's probably more than that…" Makarov's gaze turned to the vast, boundless sea.
Wherever his gaze fell, he could see dense bubbles on the surface of the sea.
It was as if…
The entire sea was about to boil…
"Finn…" Mirajane didn't think much about it.
She just looked at Finn with a worried expression.
She clasped her hands tightly to her chest, as if trying to calm her overly anxious heart.

At the same time, in the Fairy Tail guild.
Macao was loudly boasting to Wakaba next to him.
Feeling a strange dryness in his mouth, Macao raised his glass, wanting to drink some beer to relieve it.
But in the next moment, his eyes widened.
"Where's my beer?" Macao looked at his son, Romeo.
Only he, Wakaba, and Romeo were at his table.
Wakaba was sitting across from him, so he couldn't have stolen his beer. That only left Romeo.
Thinking that Romeo was underage and was already stealing beer, he became enraged.
If he didn't discipline him properly, he might end up like Cana…
Thinking this, Macao became angry.
"Romeo! Where's the beer from my glass?" Macao said sternly.
Romeo looked confused.
"Dad, I don't know."
Seeing Romeo like this, Macao wanted to show his fatherly authority.
But in the next moment, Wakaba's exclamation rang out.
The same thing had happened to him. The beer in Wakaba's glass had also disappeared inexplicably.
Next, the same words were heard throughout the guild.
And Juvia, as a waitress, was at a loss. Many people had just had their drinks refilled, but why had they disappeared so mysteriously?
Unable to figure it out, Juvia could only appease everyone, turning and heading towards the bar.
She was going to get some more beer.
But in the next moment, Juvia's exclamation came from the bar.
All the beer stored in the countless barrels behind the bar had disappeared.
Macao looked shocked, his gaze unconsciously drifting towards the vase on the bar.
At this moment, there wasn't a single drop of water in the vase.
This meant that it wasn't just beer…
All the water seemed to have disappeared in an instant.
And outside the guild, the residents were suddenly complaining. Everyone was wondering why the water they used for daily life had disappeared.
"What… is going on?!" Macao murmured softly.

Looking at the ordinary Finn before it, Acnologia tilted its head.
Its white eyes stared at Finn.
It seemed to be surprised that the power Finn had called 'a power I didn't want to use'
Was so ordinary?
But Finn didn't hesitate. He gripped Ryūjin Jakka tightly in one hand.
He stepped on the ground, and his figure instantly appeared before Acnologia.
Ryūjin Jakka was swung down violently.
Acnologia followed suit, swinging its massive claws towards Finn.
The giant claws brought an incredibly terrifying sound of tearing through the air.
The power that seemed to be able to shake the earth with a wave of its arm was in stark contrast to Finn's ordinary sword swing.
But in the next moment, intense pain shot from the claws to Acnologia's brain.
And its massive claws passed over Finn's head.
It hadn't touched a single hair on Finn's head.
This was absolutely impossible. Its claws had been swinging towards Finn along the ground.
With that kind of movement, it shouldn't have missed unless it had lifted its hand.
Even Acnologia was stunned by this situation.
It looked at its palm, finally understanding why it hadn't hit Finn.
Because only three fingers remained on its claws. The other two had mysteriously disappeared.
And just now, Finn had dodged its attack by passing through the gap between the two fingers.
At this moment, Acnologia's gaze towards Finn changed.
The Dragon King, who had always looked at humans with a mocking gaze, as if they were ants, showed an expression of shock for the first time.
"That sword!!" A huge voice, like a human's, rang out from Acnologia's mouth.
Its gaze turned to the charred longsword in Finn's hand.
It seemed to understand something.
"Heh, I didn't think you could talk," Finn said with a chuckle.
He didn't say anything more, swinging Ryūjin Jakka towards Acnologia again.
Having witnessed this power, Acnologia didn't dare to take Finn's attack head-on.
It immediately flapped its massive wings, its entire body flying into the sky.
It narrowly dodged Finn's attack.
But the moment Finn's sword tip grazed the ground.
BOOM—!!!
A huge roar echoed in everyone's ears.
The earth in front of Ryūjin Jakka's tip instantly turned into nothingness.
A huge abyss appeared before Finn, extending into the sea. Even the sea seemed to have been completely split in two.
Even the bottom of the sea was revealed.
The walls of the abyss were charred black.
