"By the way, there's another new member joining. Why don't you say hello to everyone?" President Makarov continued as everyone was happy about Juvia's joining. Then everyone followed his line of sight and saw the figure sitting in the corner, a very familiar person, the Iron Dragon Slayer, Gajeel.

"Gajeel, it's you?" Natsu was very surprised when he saw Gajeel.

"Why did we let this guy join the guild?" The same thing happened to Gray. Not just the two of them, but also Erza, Lucy and others were all very shocked by this. After all, the other party was different from Juvia. This guy was the one fighting on the front line when Fairy Tail and Phantom Flame were fighting.

"Wait a minute, I was the one who introduced Gajeel in." Seeing that Natsu and Gray looked like they were about to fight, Juvia spoke hurriedly.

"Juvia, I can accept it, but this guy is the culprit who destroyed the guild." Erza directly expressed her opinion. The initial destruction of Fairy Tail was done by Gajeel. He inserted several huge iron pillars into the Fairy Tail Guild.

"It doesn't matter. As the saying goes, yesterday's enemy is today's friend." said President Makarov.

"Well, I don't care at all." Levi expressed her opinion, but just because she didn't mind, it didn't mean that her two companions didn't mind. The two of them kept glaring at Gajeel.

"He's not strong enough and not as handsome as the other person. No wonder he can't catch up with Levy." Shen Fei glanced at Gajeel with a stern face, Levy who seemed a little restless, and the two companions beside her. He couldn't help but mutter in his heart, Gajeel and Levy had a child before they had their wedding.

"Lebi." Lucy immediately came to Lebi's side.

"Are you kidding me? There's no way I can work with this guy." Natsu ran to Gajeel and shouted.

"Don't worry, I don't want to work with you either. I just want to work. I didn't expect to work in the most annoying guild. It's so annoying." Gajeel stood up and confronted Natsu.

As a wizard, if he wants to make money, he naturally wants to join the Wizards Guild. Originally, with Gajeel's strength, he would be welcomed to join that guild, after all, he is powerful. However, with the introduction of Juvia and someone else, he still came to Fairy Tail.

"Gajeel is always alone, and Juvia can't just sit there and watch. Well, that doesn't mean that I like him." Juvia tried her best to explain Gajeel's situation to Gray.

"It is the mission of the older generation to guide young people who have gone astray back to the right path in life. I believe that their nature is not bad." President Makarov said again.

"I have no objection. This guy likes to eat metal. I wonder if he can eat vibranium." Shen Fei was the first to raise his hand to agree. He was naturally happy to see Gajeel joining him. At the same time, he was very curious about Gajeel's magic, swallowing metal. Vibranium is also a kind of metal. Can Gajeel swallow it? Will he become a vibranium man?

"Since it is the president's judgment, we will follow it, but I think we should keep a closer eye on him recently." Since President Makarov said so, Erza agreed. Of course, she was still a little worried about Gajeel.

"Okay." Makarov agreed to Erza's proposal. He still had confidence in Gajeel. Just like he said just now, Gajeel was just a young man who had gone astray.

"Now Fairy Tail has two Dragon Slayer Wizards." Shen Fei said immediately.

"Yes." After hearing Shen Fei's words, most of the others immediately shifted their attention from Gajeel himself to the magic he knew. After all, this was dragon-slaying magic.

"Next, I will sing a song to celebrate the two new members joining and the official opening of the new guild." The lights in the guild dimmed, and everyone's attention was attracted by Mirajane under the spotlight in front. She took her instrument and walked onto the newly built stage of the guild.

These guilds were rebuilt, the hall on the first floor was widened considerably, and a stage for performances was built in the front.

"It's your turn to perform, Mirajane."

"Miraje, Miraje."

Seeing that Mirajane was going to sing, most of the people in the guild immediately shouted excitedly. At this moment, they were like some star-chasing fans. However, it was not wrong to say so, Mirajane was still very famous in the magic world. After all, she was a frequent cover guest of the Weekly Magician.

Weekly Magician is a weekly magazine that tells stories about magicians, but in Shen Fei's opinion, it is a magazine that introduces the handsome men and beautiful women in the magic world.

"It's my turn next. This is a song I wrote myself, Best Friend." After Mirajane's performance ended, Gajeel changed his clothes and went on stage.

"That's too ugly. Get down." At first, some people had some expectations for Gajeel, but after he opened his mouth, the expectations were immediately dashed. Many people yelled at Gajeel to get down, but Gajeel completely ignored them.

"Come on, Gajeel." Under the leadership of Juvia, some people from Fairy Tail also cheered for Gajeel.

"I've never heard such an ugly song." Natsu yelled and threw the cup in his hand at Gajeel, who dodged it and glared at Natsu unwillingly, then the two of them started fighting like gangsters, and then Natsu's attack hit Elfman on the side, which led to a melee.

"My strawberry cake." Erza was not going to participate at first, but after someone's attack hit her strawberry cake, Erza also joined in.

"Hey." Shen Fei took his drink and hid behind the stage, then saw Lucy and Happy squatting beside the platform.

"Yeah." Shen Fei suddenly felt a beam of angry gaze sweeping over him, and then he turned his head and immediately saw the figure in a black cloak, Lacusas, standing by the gate of the guild. Just from his back, Shen Fei could tell that he was hiding anger.

"The Magunolia Harvest Festival is coming."

The guild was very quiet in the following days. Although Natsu, Lucy and the others were on missions, no special news was heard. However, Magunolia became lively. Many places on the streets began to be decorated because the annual harvest festival was approaching.

Magunolia's Harvest Festival was a festival held to celebrate the harvest when Magunolia was still just a small town. With the prosperity of Magunolia, this festival has not been forgotten but has become more and more lively every year. It is also a big event for Fairy Tail. After all, strictly speaking, it is Fairy Tail that has allowed this celebration to be passed down.

"Next begins the Miss Fairy Tail Contest, and my host is me, Max, the Sand Wizard." As the celebration approached, Fairy Tail's activities also began, and the rebuilt stage was immediately put to use.

"Natsu, you should not be interested in this kind of thing." Sitting in the first row of the audience, Gray looked at Natsu curiously. This was not the first time that Fairy Tail held the fairy lady selection contest. Natsu was never seen here in the past. Unfortunately, Gray who said this did not know that he was one of them and he would have stayed here in the past.

"Now, please welcome contestant number one, Kana, an exotic beauty with a stomach from another dimension." Following the announcement by the host, Kana came on stage, and then it was time for a magic show. Kana used card magic to demonstrate on-the-spot dressing and swimsuits, which immediately excited many of the audience below.

The next person to appear was Juvia, who was also in a swimsuit, but she kept calling Gray's name. Then it was Mirajane, who did not change into a swimsuit, but instead performed transformation magic, changing her face into other people in the guild, including Happy, Natsu, Gajeel and others.

This made some people in the audience very disappointed, but Lucy on the other side was very fortunate, because in this way, her chances of winning would be greater. The reason why Lucy worked so hard was naturally for the 500,000 yuan prize. She had been working hard to pay the rent, and she had her eyes on this 500,000 yuan.

"Now is beauty number eight, the Celestial Mage Lucy." After Erza, Levy and other female mages from Mannequin Tail came on stage, it was finally Lucy's turn.

"What I'm going to show you next is cheerleading with the stars." Lucy said as she took out the Lyra star key. Among the many stars, the image of Lyra Lila is undoubtedly quite cute.

"Wait a minute, the so-called Fairy Miss refers to me, and the winner is of course me, Alba Green." Just then, someone suddenly appeared and interrupted Lucy's plan.

"Okay, this boring plan can end now." Alba Green announced to the silent crowd below.

"Alba Green, why is she back?"

The appearance of Alba Green surprised everyone present. Alba Green's appearance was not bad, but her appearance made everyone silent because of the identity she represented. Since she was back, the Thunder Gods and Laxus might have returned as well.

"What are you doing? This competition is related to my livelihood." Lucy is really fighting for the rent.

"Lucy, be careful, don't look into her eyes." Gray, who was sitting in the first row, saw Alba Green take off her glasses and immediately shouted. But it was too late. The next moment Lucy was petrified. This is Alba Green's petrifying eyes. This person was born with the eyes that can petrify others.

"Everyone, run away." Seeing Alba Green really take action, Max immediately shouted loudly, and the next moment many audiences in the audience were scared and ran away. This Fairy Tail beauty pageant was not only watched by Fairy Tail people, but also many residents of Magunolia and foreign tourists.

"Albagreen, what are you going to do? Are you going to ruin the celebration? Quickly remove their magic." President Makarov shouted.

"Aren't there always entertainment programs at celebrations?" As Alba Green spoke, the curtain at the back of the stage rose up, and it could be seen that all the contestants, including Erza and Mirajane, were petrified.

"you."

boom.

Just when President Makarov was about to say something, there was a loud noise suddenly coming from above, and then a golden lightning appeared in front of everyone, and then the lightning turned into Laxus.

"Fairy Tail guys, the celebration has only just begun." Laxus spread his hands and laughed loudly.

"Laxus, Freed, and Bixro." At this time, the other members of Fairy Tail also discovered the other two members of the Thunder Gods.

"Laxus, what are you doing? Quickly break their magic." Makarov shouted loudly.

"Let's play, old man, and see how many people can survive before the magic parade begins." As Laxus spoke, several bolts of lightning fell on Erza and the others who were petrified.

"I will use these women as hostages to play a game, the Fairy Tail's strongest battle. The rules are simple, and the one who remains at the end is the winner." Laxus directly stated his purpose.

"Then shouldn't you release Erza and Mirajane? Without their participation in the strongest battle, even if the strongest is decided in the end, it won't be able to convince everyone." Shen Fei suddenly interrupted.

"Interesting, but there is no need. I will naturally prove that I am the strongest when the time comes." Laxus then looked at Shen Fei and said confidently.

"You didn't fall for it." Shen Fei was a little surprised that Laxus didn't fall for his provocation. He thought that based on Laxus's personality, he would immediately let Erza and Mirajane go and then fight them.

"Okay, I'm on fire, Laxus, I'm going to attack." Natsu said, waving his fist with flames, leaping up and rushing towards Laxus.

"Calm down, it hasn't officially started yet." A golden lightning bolt struck Natsu down as he jumped up.

"The battle scope is the entire Magunolia. As long as we are discovered, the battle can begin." Laxus then briefly explained the rules.

"Laxus, how long are you going to keep messing around?" President Makarov finally got angry, and his body began to swell up in an instant, turning into a giant.

"I told you, don't be anxious, just enjoy yourself from now on, the strongest battle of Fairy Tail has begun." Laxus said as her body burst into dazzling golden lightning, and the next moment she and the three members of the Thunder God Group disappeared from the guild.

"Sister, I will definitely find a way to save you." Elfman said and rushed out of the guild immediately.

"We must catch Laxus." The others also rushed out, and in a flash, there were not many people left in the Fairy Tail Guild.

"You bastard, let me stop you." After Laxus and the others left, Makarov returned to his original state and rushed towards the guild gate, but was blocked by an invisible wall.

"Old man, what's going on?" Gray, who followed Makarov but passed through without any hindrance, looked at the door in front of him in surprise.

"It's Fried's spell." Then the two of them immediately discovered the magic words that appeared above the guild gate, which read that people over eighty years old and stone statues were not allowed to pass.

"Grandpa, is there no way to resolve it?" Gray asked hurriedly.

"The rules of the jutsu are absolute. It looks like Laxus has been preparing for a long time."

The so-called ritual is actually a kind of magic barrier. It is difficult to use it in battle because it takes time to set up the ritual. However, if it is prepared in advance, even a Saint Ten like Makarov will be trapped in it.
