    Previously on Fairy Tail:
[00:03] ---
    Aye, sir!
[00:04] ---
    The S Class Wizard Advancement
    Exam has finally started!
[00:07] ---
    Both Erza and Mira passed this exam to
    become S Class Wizards, didn't they?
[00:11] ---
    I'm all fired up!
[00:13] ---
    And the first test finished, but...
[00:15] ---
    It was hard right off the bat.
[00:17] ---
    So, what was the second test again?
[00:19] ---
    It was searching for the
    founding Master, Mavis's grave.
[00:23] ---
    But a weirdo went and barged in on us!
[00:26] ---
    You're gettin' in the way
    of the exam, damn you!
[02:11] ---
    By the way, Erza-san... What
    kind of magic does Mest-san use?
[02:15] ---
    Ah yes, I suppose you aren't yet aware.
[02:18] ---
    Mest uses... Uh, that! You know...
[02:22] ---
    You don't know either, Erza-san?
[02:26] ---
    What do you mean that Mest might
    not be a member of the guild?
[02:30] ---
    It was just a hunch at first.
    But the strange thing is,
[02:34] ---
    the more doubts I have, the more
    clear my knowledge of Mest becomes.
[02:39] ---
    Huh? I don't follow you in the slightest.
[02:44] ---
    It's unnatural.
[02:46] ---
    The knowledge I have of him, even
    though I just joined the guild...
[02:51] ---
    His name is Mest Gryder.
[02:54] ---
    He is the disciple of Mystogan, the Prince.
[02:57] ---
    He was chosen to take the S Class Exam
    last year, but unfortunately failed.
[03:03] ---
    That's all.
[03:04] ---
    Any other information on
    him is cloudy and vague...
[03:08] ---
    See why I told her not to
    partner with that weirdo!
[03:11] ---
    Anyway, we must hurry!
    Wendy might be in danger!
[03:15] ---
    I've never seen this kind of flower before!
[03:18] ---
    Mest-san, look!
[03:23] ---
    I want to know! I want to know what
    these strange flowers taste like!
[03:28] ---
    Please don't eat the flowers!
[03:32] ---
    Hey, Natsu... Aren't we heading to the top?
[03:36] ---
    I'd like to...
[03:38] ---
    But I ain't gonna be satisfied
    until I give that bastard
[03:41] ---
    who did this to Igneel's
    scarf a taste of my fist!
[03:43] ---
    So... You're gonna search for the grave
    while also searching for that guy?
[03:47] ---
    Just choose one or the other...
[03:49] ---
    I'm gonna do both at once, geez!
[03:52] ---
    That's Natsu for you, I guess.
[03:57] ---
    What are you people after?
[04:01] ---
    To hunt the fairies here!
SIGN    Thundering Roar
[04:09] ---
    Soul of Iron.
[04:14] ---
    What a racket!
[04:16] ---
    Magic from letters?
[04:18] ---
    It's the same magic as yours!
[04:20] ---
    Right, Levy?
[04:22] ---
    That magic is Eastern Solid Script!
[04:28] ---
    Gajeel!
[04:29] ---
    Gajeel, hey!
[04:30] ---
    He can't hear me?
[04:40] ---
    Eggs?
[04:43] ---
    Egg Buster!
[04:53] ---
    Damn it... I can't hear his
    steps with all the noise!
[05:02] ---
    Gajeel!
[05:04] ---
    Solid Script: Silent!
[05:13] ---
    The noise has gone back to normal!
[05:15] ---
    Did your writing cancel out mine?
[05:18] ---
    I heard that!
[05:19] ---
    There!
[05:25] ---
    Fire!
SIGN    Zuzazazazazazaza

    How dare you!

SIGN    Slash-Slash
[06:03] ---
    Man... This is messed up...
[06:12] ---
    Fire!
[06:14] ---
    There's too many!
[06:20] ---
    Levy!
[06:24] ---
    He's cutting my iron scales
    like they're nothing?!
SIGN    Go

[06:46] ---
    Crying Bite!
SIGN    Zan-zan-zan-zan-zan-zan-zan-zan-zan... Zan!
SIGN    Jaki
[06:59] ---
    Gajeel!
[07:05] ---
    Gajeel...
[07:06] ---
    If they're all as weak as these two,
[07:09] ---
    I bet we can finish them all off
    before the main force arrives.
[07:16] ---
    M-Main force, you say?
[07:19] ---
    Looks like he's still alive-peron.
[07:22] ---
    The main force is the full might
    of our Guild, Grimoire Heart!
[07:28] ---
    B-But...
[07:30] ---
    Levy, escape.
[07:33] ---
    This isn't just some war.
[07:35] ---
    It's gonna be way bigger than that.
[07:37] ---
    But, I...
[07:39] ---
    Go and tell everyone about
    this, on the double!
[07:43] ---
    I can handle these chumps fine on my own!
[07:49] ---
    You aren't getting away!
[07:53] ---
    Gajeel!
[07:53] ---
    What the hell are you doing? Hurry and go!
[07:59] ---
    Iron?
[08:02] ---
    Please, don't die.
[08:11] ---
    Damn you... Letting that woman get away.
[08:14] ---
    Whatever-peron... Just makes
    the hunt more fun-peron.
[08:22] ---
    An all-out war against Fairy Tail, is it?
[08:26] ---
    Y-You can stand?
[08:29] ---
    Reminds me of back then...
[08:33] ---
    I'll show you that picking a fight
    with Fairy Tail was a mistake!
[08:40] ---
    Yeah...
[08:43] ---
    You're gonna taste the same fear!
[08:49] ---
    The full force of Grimoire
    Heart is coming to attack!
[08:53] ---
    I don't know why...
[08:55] ---
    But I have to tell everyone!
[08:58] ---
    Something terrible is happening!
[09:10] ---
    Gajeel...
[09:14] ---
    Roar of the Iron Dragon!
SIGN    Block
[09:29] ---
    What the...
[09:30] ---
    Fool, look above you!
[09:33] ---
    Heavy Egg Rain!
SIGN    Shubabababababa
[09:49] ---
    You think my forged iron is going
    to lose to that rusty blade?!
[09:57] ---
    Take this!
[10:00] ---
    You're a pest!
SIGN    Stab-stab-stab-stab
[10:06] ---
    Stab!
[10:10] ---
    You're open!
[10:14] ---
    What?
[10:20] ---
    I-I can't lose.
[10:23] ---
    Damn you!
[10:25] ---
    I can't lose, damn it!
[10:37] ---
    Levy... Levy... Levy!
[10:44] ---
    Where did you get those injuries?
[10:47] ---
    Erza, Juvia...
[10:49] ---
    What happened?
[10:51] ---
    We've got trouble! Gajeel is...
[11:07] ---
    Making an enemy of Fairy Tail...
[11:11] ---
    These guys are the same as I was back then...
[11:16] ---
    Gajeel was once part of another guild.
[11:20] ---
    Its name was Phantom Lord.
[11:23] ---
    They kidnapped Lucy, and drove
    Fairy Tail into a corner,
[11:28] ---
    but were completely defeated
    and Phantom Lord was destroyed.
[11:33] ---
    Their various wizards all set out
    and went their separate ways, but...
[11:52] ---
    Yo!
[11:56] ---
    Master Makarov!
[12:01] ---
    What the hell are you here for?
[12:04] ---
    Whoa there...
[12:06] ---
    For a little talk.
[12:12] ---
    Juvia entered my guild the other day.
[12:16] ---
    She what?
[12:17] ---
    Yeah, and she's pretty worried about you.
[12:22] ---
    What the hell is that rain woman thinking?
[12:31] ---
    What are you going to do now?
[12:34] ---
    Beats me. I ain't decided.
[12:37] ---
    Well, I'll get by somehow.
[12:42] ---
    Can I ask you a question?
[12:45] ---
    What?
[12:47] ---
    What were you thinking when
    you picked a fight with us?
[12:54] ---
    What did Phantom Lord mean to you?
[12:59] ---
    What did the guild mean to you?
[13:02] ---
    What did being a wizard mean to you?
[13:08] ---
    That's more than one question.
[13:12] ---
    They're all the same.
[13:14] ---
    I'm asking what do you, yourself,
    think about who you are?
[13:21] ---
    Would you have taken people's
    lives if Jose had ordered you to?
[13:26] ---
    Are you that unquestioning?
[13:30] ---
    You see, that's no different
    than being a puppet.
[13:34] ---
    But I don't think you're
    as boring a man as that.
[13:39] ---
    Shut up already. Leave me alone.
[13:43] ---
    There's no need to throw
    yourself into the darkness.
[13:47] ---
    How about it? Wanna join my guild?
[13:50] ---
    You must be joking! Are you serious?!
[13:54] ---
    There are people in this
    world who prefer solitude.
[13:58] ---
    But there is no one who can withstand it.
[14:07] ---
    I'm the one who destroyed your guild!
[14:10] ---
    Let's put all that aside.
[14:13] ---
    And... I hurt your friends...
[14:21] ---
    That...
[14:23] ---
    ...I will never forgive, no matter what.
[14:27] ---
    But if I ignored a young man trying
    to throw himself into the darkness,
[14:32] ---
    it'd be myself I could never forgive.
[14:41] ---
    This isn't me saving you. I'm simply
    showing you the path to tomorrow.
[14:47] ---
    Will you go forward, or will you
    stop? It's up to you to decide.
[14:58] ---
    I...
[15:07] ---
    ...can't lose!
[15:10] ---
    I can't lose, damn it!
[15:17] ---
    I'm a Fairy Tail...
[15:22] ---
    ...Wizard!!
[15:26] ---
    My katana!
[15:28] ---
    My soul!
[15:41] ---
    Secret Dragon Slayer Art!
SIGN    Hi~
[15:59] ---
    Karma Demon:
[16:04] ---
    Iron God Sword!
[16:37] ---
    Gajeel!
[16:40] ---
    This is...
[16:42] ---
    Gajeel-kun?
[16:45] ---
    Gajeel! Hang in there, Gajeel!
[16:52] ---
    I told you I could handle 'em by myself...
[16:57] ---
    Gajeel...
[17:04] ---
    It's over!
[17:06] ---
    The main force will be here any moment!
[17:09] ---
    Wizards far out of my league are coming!
[17:13] ---
    The Seven Kin of Purgatory!
[17:19] ---
    Seven Kin?
[17:22] ---
    I'm halting the exam.
[17:26] ---
    All hands, deploy for battle!
[17:29] ---
    Condition red! Prepare to intercept!
[17:38] ---
    An enemy?
[17:41] ---
    On this island? That's not good.
[17:44] ---
    What's that?
[17:46] ---
    A red signal...
[17:48] ---
    An enemy.
[17:49] ---
    What about the exam? Hey...
[17:52] ---
    It's called off for now, with this.
[17:57] ---
    Is it that guy from before?
[18:00] ---
    That bastard!
[18:03] ---
    I wonder... That's a signal that
    means an enemy is coming to attack.
[18:07] ---
    They're closing in now.
[18:10] ---
    I don't know who or what they are,
[18:12] ---
    but they think they can pick a fight with us?
[18:14] ---
    I'll turn the tables on 'em!
[18:16] ---
    Aye, sir!
[18:18] ---
    Why now?
[18:21] ---
    This is my final exam! Even though
    I wish to drop out of the guild...
[18:27] ---
    You've got to be kidding me!
    I'm continuing the exam!
[18:32] ---
    Cana...
[18:33] ---
    Calm down, Cana.
[18:36] ---
    Everyone feels the same way.
[18:37] ---
    Gray! Loke!
[18:39] ---
    Why are the two of you here?
[18:42] ---
    We were foll...
[18:44] ---
    We just happened upon you!
[18:46] ---
    Anyway, who cares?
[18:48] ---
    An enemy is coming... This
    is no time for exams.
[18:54] ---
    Let's head to the emergency gathering area.
[18:57] ---
    We don't have enough information now.
[19:00] ---
    What's going to happen? Seriously...
[19:08] ---
    Erza-san, what should we do now?
[19:11] ---
    For now, let's search for Mest and Wendy.
[19:13] ---
    It's possible they're lost and
    don't know where the camp is.
[19:17] ---
    I'll take Gajeel to the camp.
[19:19] ---
    Right, handle that.
[19:21] ---
    A shrimp like you shouldn't push herself.
[19:24] ---
    You sure talk big for a
    guy who can't stand up.
[19:28] ---
    Man, this is messed up.
[19:31] ---
    Juvia wants to see Gray-sama very soon!
[19:36] ---
    Now then, let's hear what you're after.
[19:41] ---
    You think I'd talk to the likes of you?
[19:48] ---
    It's Zeref...
[19:50] ---
    The legendary Black Wizard Zeref!
[19:53] ---
    Zeref is here on this island!
[19:56] ---
    Impossible!
[19:57] ---
    Zeref lived hundreds of years ago...
[20:01] ---
    400 years, yes.
[20:02] ---
    I don't believe it! There's
    no way he's alive!
[20:07] ---
    After all, Jellal...
[20:14] ---
    He's alive! He's been alive
    these past 400 years!
[20:20] ---
    But Master Hades says that
    he's currently "sleeping".
[20:28] ---
    I can't believe what you're saying.
[20:33] ---
    When Zeref awakens,
[20:35] ---
    this world will be bathed in pure darkness!
[20:40] ---
    Don't be ridiculous! This
    is Fairy Tail holy ground!
[20:44] ---
    You're telling me you plan to run rampant
    on this divinely protected Fairy island?!
[20:50] ---
    Master Hade's personal
    guard will be here soon.
[20:53] ---
    You'd do well not to underestimate
    the 7 Kin of Purgatory!
[20:59] ---
    The wizard of time, Ultear!
[21:03] ---
    Rustyrose!
[21:05] ---
    Our boss, Caprico-sama!
[21:08] ---
    Kain Hikaru!
[21:11] ---
    Zancrow!
[21:14] ---
    Meldy!
[21:15] ---
    And the final one is
    already on this island...
[21:21] ---
    Say what?
[21:26] ---
    Mest-san, what does that
    signal flare mean again?
[21:32] ---
    Um...
[21:34] ---
    Huh?
[21:35] ---
    I want to know! I seriously want to know!
[21:39] ---
    You've forgotten too, Mest-san?
[21:41] ---
    And besides, Mest-san... You really
    shouldn't try to put everything in your mouth.
[21:42] ---
    This is bad... Should I make my
    move before the main forces come?
[21:47] ---
    Wendy!
[21:50] ---
    Carla! Lily?
[21:52] ---
    Get away from him right away!
[21:55] ---
    Mest! Who exactly are you?
[21:59] ---
    Who am I?
[22:02] ---
    I'm Mystogan's disciple, and...
[22:06] ---
    Mystogan would not have taken
    on a disciple in this world.
[22:10] ---
    You did well choosing to use a human
    who is no longer in this world,
[22:15] ---
    but your cover story was too weak,
    Mest. If that's your real name.
[22:19] ---
    Who are you?!
[23:56] ---
    Whoa, whoa! A bunch of guys
    I dunno are comin' here!
[24:00] ---
    That mark... Could they be Grimoire Heart?
[24:03] ---
    Why would a Dark Guild be here?
[24:05] ---
    Maybe this is also part of the S Class exam?
[24:07] ---
    Like a big festival, testing our strength?
[24:09] ---
    Pretty weird festival.
[24:10] ---
    And wait, we've gone from exams to festivals?
[24:14] ---
    Next time: Makarov's Charge.
[24:16] ---
    Oh, it's not a festival!
[24:18] ---
    Then I guess they're enemies.
[24:20] ---
    That means I can blast 'em, right?
[24:21] ---
    But try not to get blasted yourself, 'kay?
