They didn't hesitate; the gigantic fists continued to fall through the smoke and dust.
The booming sounds echoed incessantly.
"Why isn't Erza dodging!" Lucy cried out worriedly.
"Is it because her stamina is overdrawn?" Gray murmured.
"Sister Erza..." Wendy was also filled with worry.
Even Natsu, who had always believed in Erza, started to panic, "Erza! Get up..."
Before Natsu could finish his sentence, they saw inside the magic crystal screen.
The movements of the four giant monsters, who were swinging their fists at Erza, had stopped.
Flames seemed to be burning on their hands.
Roar roar~~ The monsters' voices no longer sounded like roars, but more like...
Miserable howls.
They kept flinging the flames in their hands, but the flames seemed as if they would never extinguish.
Under everyone's horrified gaze, the entire arms of the four A-rank monsters gradually turned to ash in the flames.
Immediately following, the terrifying temperature began to rise, and even the people spectating outside Hades instantly felt an incredibly scorching atmosphere.
Dazzling red light began to bloom within the massive cloud of smoke and dust that filled Hades.
"Solar Storm!!"
BOOM BOOM BOOM————!!!
Along with Erza's voice, a terrifying inferno erupted, and flames of ultra-high temperature intertwined, swirling out from the smoke and dust like a fiery tornado.
In the blink of an eye, it enveloped the four A-rank monsters.
The monsters' miserable howls were abruptly cut short.
Furthermore, the flames continued to spread wildly in all directions, and everything inside Hades began to collapse, shatter, and then be completely consumed the moment it touched the flames.
In a mere instant, a fiery tornado with a diameter of hundreds of meters completely engulfed the entire Hades.
And it continued to extend towards the sky.
It was as if it was going to completely ignite the sky itself.
The dazzling red light completely illuminated everyone's faces, which were filled with extreme horror.
"That kind of flame...!" Jura instantly turned his gaze towards Finn, who was beside him.
Finn's gaze was fixed on the screen of the magic crystal, and a smile slowly spread across his face.
"This is the upgraded version, you know!" he muttered softly.
The flames only lasted for a short while before dissipating completely.
The crowd all turned their gazes towards the center of the arena, but after seeing everything clearly, their already astonished expressions became even more horrified.
The gigantic Hades, which had originally stood towering in the center of the venue, had become tattered and ruined.
Faint flames still burned in many places.
Waves of thick smoke constantly rose from within the shattered castle.
What remained now bore no resemblance to its former self.
And at that moment, within the shattered Hades, a single figure stood in place.
It was a figure enveloped in crimson armor.
The armor's shoulder guards were like golden wings, and the front was crimson armor carved with golden patterns.
The cloak behind her fluttered in the wind, and the gilded lines on the cloak outlined the shape of a sunbird.
Erza also held a slender katana in her hand, and the patterns on the blade resembled burning flames.
At the hilt of the sword, the shape of the sun was engraved on top.
The Sun God Armor and the Sun God Blade!
"This is too amazing... that one attack just now completely destroyed Hades, just what kind of power is this!!" Chapati roared.
"What... is that!!" Natsu clutched his head, and sweat streamed down his face.
"That seemed like Finn's magic just now, but how can Erza use Finn's magic?" Gray asked in confusion.
After all, even Natsu, the Fire Dragon Slayer Mage, couldn't control Finn's flames.
"That's because of the armor!" Wendy explained at this time.
Having accompanied Finn and the others on their hundred-year quest, she had seen this armor many times.
"The Sun Armor! That was made by Brother Finn in collaboration with the kingdom's skilled craftsmen, using the Fiore Kingdom's top-tier materials!"
"So, the armor houses Finn's power?" Lucy said.
Wendy nodded slightly, "And that armor has been upgraded!"
In addition to being able to control those flames of near-destruction level, the upgraded Sun God Armor possessed a defense surpassing the Adamantine Armor.
As well as physical attacks surpassing the Purgatory Armor!
It was upgraded using extremely special materials found during the last year of the hundred-year quest, when Finn and the others were subjugating the Gold Dragon!
Also, because of the material upgrades, the flames that Erza could release were even more powerful than before.
"So amazing! That means the current Erza is equivalent to Finn!" Lucy exclaimed.
To this, Wendy shook her head, "While that's true, it still depends on the magic power of the user."
"And... there's a limit to the temperature that this armor can reach, but Brother Finn's flames have no limit."
"Even so, it's still amazing, after all, Finn's flames are very strong!" Gray said with emotion.
Regardless of how surprised Natsu and the others were.
Within the shattered Hades, Erza had already faced the last monster.
She raised her eyelids and looked at the small figure in front of her.
This was the monster that had appeared from the beginning, but because of its small body.
Erza hadn't had the energy to deal with it at that time.
"You're the S-rank monster, aren't you!" Erza said with certainty.
That small figure was like a black eyeball, with four chopstick-like legs.
And its scarlet pupils emitted a purple light at that moment.
Immediately following, its body began to swell.
That body, which was several times taller than the A-rank monsters, emanated a pressure that was countless times stronger than all the previous monsters.
"As I said before, this was an impossible feat, because when only the last S-rank monster remains on the field, its power is immediately tripled!"
The Pumpkin said slowly.
These words were transmitted to everyone's ears without any reservations.
They all opened their mouths in astonishment.
"I didn't expect there to be such a setting," Yajima said.
"An unexpected trump card, I see, that certainly fits the name Hades." Lahar also nodded repeatedly.
"Regardless, we've reached the final battlefield, let's see what will happen!"
Chapati shouted loudly.
————
Erza in the arena moved, and the cloak behind her fluttered as Erza ran.
Roar——!!
The S-rank monster roared furiously, and raised its gigantic right foot to stomp down on that tiny figure.
"ROAR OOOO!!!" Erza roared furiously.
Her body leaped up, dodging the monster's giant foot, and the blade in her hand erupted with the most violent flames to date.
The flames continued to spread around Erza.
As if they were embracing Erza, at this moment Erza leaped into the sky.
The katana in her hand suddenly slashed down on the S-rank monster's head.
In that instant, the flames behind Erza, (by Nuo Zhao's) seemed to burn into a gigantic flame giant.
The giant also swung down the fiery longsword in its hand.
BOOM————!!!
The gigantic roar seemed to spread throughout all of Crocus.
The already crumbling Hades completely collapsed and disintegrated under that one slash.
The billowing smoke and dust began to surge outwards, blowing the hat off the Pumpkin's head, who was stunned in place.
Clap clap clap————!!
"Fairy Tail!!"
"That's amazing!!!"
Thunderous applause suddenly resounded, and countless people stood up, roaring with their mouths wide open.
It was as if only in this way could they express the shock that had overwhelmed them.
Everyone in Fairy Tail embraced each other, and glistening tears fluttered down.
Their eyes were all fixed on that figure, holding the longsword high, standing proudly there.
