Explorer Wen Braun Nolando and Sandia Warrior Carl Gala
After four centuries, through their descendants, they finally met again.
For four hundred years, the Sandia had never once given up on reclaiming their homeland. Driven by a deep nostalgia for their lost lands, they also sought to ring the golden bell and fulfill the promise of their ancestors.
On the other side, the descendants of Nolando never abandoned their pursuit of the Golden Land. By the time of the Kulik generation, with the help of Fairy Tail, the Wen Braun family's long-cherished dream—spanning four centuries—was finally realized.
"Wahahaha, incredible! Truly incredible!"
Aside from those directly involved, the most excited person in the crowd was none other than the news king, Morgans.
Morgans had long known the legend of the notorious storyteller Nolando, circulated throughout the North Blue. Previously, he had dismissed it as mere childhood exaggerations, a lie spun by Nolando himself.
But… ever since learning that Sugisawa Yuuto had taken over this mission three days ago, he had been quietly anticipating something extraordinary.
Relying on his instincts as a professional journalist, he sent a request to Yuuto.
As expected, his intuition had not failed him.
Wen Braun Nolando was no braggart. Shandora—the Golden Land—was real. It had not sunk to the ocean floor but floated ten thousand meters above the sea. Sandia and Nolando, reunited after four centuries… all of it would shake the entire world.
And that was not all. The Golden City and the legendary Golden Clock Tower, spoken of in Nolando's tales… Morgans trembled with excitement just thinking of it.
"Old chief, old chief!" Aisha, the young Sandia girl, spoke eagerly. "Wendy and Xia Lulu said that if it's Fairy Tail, they can solve all the problems that have plagued us for years. They can even deal with Enel! Let's ask them!"
"But… is that really possible? Enel is incredibly dangerous. Everyone from Fairy Tail is our most important guest, and they even brought the descendants of Nolando. How can we risk them?" the old chief hesitated.
"Chief, don't hesitate! Fairy Tail and Chairman Yuuto are heroes of the sea," Wen Braun Kulik immediately stepped forward, explaining Fairy Tail's credentials and reputation in detail.
If Wendy's personal relationship were used to persuade the old chief, Sandia would still feel uneasy. But framing it as a formal commission made it a completely different matter. And as for the gold cost of entrusting the mission? It was trivial for the Sandia, causing no hesitation at all.
"Very well," the old chief decided, stepping forward.
"President Sugisawa Yuuto… although this may be sudden, please listen to this request. If possible… please help us get rid of Enel… and light the fire of Shandora!"
He bowed deeply, officially submitting the Sandia clan's request to Yuuto and Fairy Tail.
Gudong! Gudong! Gudong!
Every man, woman, and child in Sandia watched anxiously, waiting for his response.
"President~~~" Wendy's large, watery eyes looked at Yuuto with anticipation.
She had stayed here for three days and learned about Sandia's history from Aisha. The kind-hearted Wendy wanted to help, but her own strength was limited. If anyone could succeed, it was Chairman Yuuto. She believed in him firmly.
"Of course!" Yuuto grinned. "Sandia, I accept your commission. Mira, prepare the paperwork!"
This trip to Sky Island had always been Yuuto's ultimate goal—how could he refuse?
Soon, the power of attorney was completed, formally establishing Sandia's commission with Fairy Tail.
"The mission has been accepted. Old chief, warm the wine and wait a moment—we'll be back soon!" With a wave of his hand, Yuuto commanded them to set sail immediately.
The old chief and others were stunned by this confident, decisive gesture. When they recovered, Fairy Tail had already set sail, heading toward the Island of Gods, Apayado.
"Wei Bo… is Fairy Tail really reliable? How many enemies do they face? What powers do they have? And… everyone else is female!" Sandia warrior Mantis Kamakili muttered in doubt.
The next second, he felt a sharp pain in his calf—a severe kick from little Aisha.
"Stupid Kamakili! Wendy said her president is the strongest—just wait and see. Even Enel will be beaten to a pulp!" Aisha scolded, fuming.
"No matter what, we can't just sit here! Alert the warriors still active to prepare for the expedition!" War Ghost Webber ordered firmly.
Island of Gods, Giant Bean Vines, Second Floor of the Island Cloud
In the godly abode, Enel, a boy with large ears wearing a white turban, lay leisurely on a fur chair, gnawing a red apple.
"It's so noisy today… those Sandia fools really don't learn," he sneered cruelly.
Using the waves of his Thunder Fruit combined with Observation Haki, called Heart Net, Enel could monitor the entire Sky Island. Naturally, the voices from Cloud Shinobi Village did not escape his notice.
"Master Enel, shall I lead a team to destroy them?" asked the broad, heavyset God Soldier, Dashan.
"No… if they're all dead, how would I have fun? But…" Enel paused, his lips curling into a cruel grin. "The Sandia can linger a little… but those Qinghai intruders from this morning… Hehe. Inform the Four Priests—prepare to put the Qinghai people on trial!"
Enel's cruel laughter echoed across the Island of Gods.
