**[00:00] ---**
Previously on Fairy Tail:
**[00:02] ---**
Even before the qualifier, there was
something between us and Sabertooth,
**[00:07] ---**
but Natsu had to make it worse by
slugging it out with them at their inn.
**[00:12] ---**
They started somethin' right
when we were gettin' momentum...
**[00:15] ---**
Jeez. You never think ahead!
**[00:18] ---**
By the way, it's almost the fourth
day of the Grand Magic Games, right?
**[00:21] ---**
Wendy got a tie,
**[00:23] ---**
but Erza, Cana, and Laxus were awesome!
**[00:27] ---**
I wonder what the next
competition part will be.
**[00:29] ---**
I've kind of got a bad feeling about this...
**[02:07] ---**
Cheers!
**[02:08] ---**
Today felt great!
**[02:11] ---**
Aye!
**[02:12] ---**
This isn't the guild,
so don't break anything!
**[02:16] ---**
Did you see my true power out there?
**[02:18] ---**
That was a cheat, wasn't it?
**[02:20] ---**
Gray-sama, you were wonderful
today, as always!
**[02:23] ---**
I didn't do anything...
**[02:25] ---**
I feel bad. Even though
Erza-san had an easy victory,
**[02:28] ---**
I didn't win...
**[02:31] ---**
What are you saying?! You did a good job!
**[02:33] ---**
You surprised everyone.
**[02:35] ---**
Yeah! You were great, Wendy!
**[02:39] ---**
At any rate, you've got amazing
recuperative strength, Erza.
**[02:43] ---**
That's thanks to Wendy and Poluchka-san.
**[02:46] ---**
Even with their power,
Elfman hasn't recovered...
**[02:50] ---**
It's pathetic...
**[02:54] ---**
Dammit...
**[02:56] ---**
Somebody must be talkin'
about me being a Man...
**[03:04] ---**
Why is Ever sleepin' here?! Dammit!
**[03:10] ---**
I'm not... worried about you...
**[03:17] ---**
Don't tell me...
**[03:19] ---**
...this woman's been here...
**[03:25] ---**
...all this time...
**[03:30] ---**
Naval Battle!
**[03:34] ---**
Booze barrel surfing!
**[03:36] ---**
Aye, sir!
**[03:38] ---**
L-Look out!
**[03:39] ---**
Cut it out, Natsu!
**[03:42] ---**
What are you doin', jackass?!
**[03:45] ---**
You wanna do it, too?!
**[03:46] ---**
You're doin' it to the point
of gettin' motion sick?!
**[03:48] ---**
Alright! I'll do it!
**[03:51] ---**
Do your best, Gray-sama!
**[03:55] ---**
What the hell is with your clothes?!
**[03:57] ---**
In that case...
**[03:59] ---**
...I'm up next!
**[04:01] ---**
Yeesh! It's dangerous, I said!
**[04:02] ---**
Somebody, stop them!
**[04:05] ---**
Everyone, you're getting too excited!
**[04:07] ---**
Lu-chan, why don't you join in?
**[04:09] ---**
I'm wearing a skirt, after all...
**[04:12] ---**
I see someone over there who
wiped out wearing a skirt...
**[04:22] ---**
Even now, when I close my
eyes, I can picture it...
**[04:26] ---**
...Lu-chan...
**[04:27] ---**
Here you go, Lisanna!
**[04:29] ---**
Everyone reveling, singing...
**[04:32] ---**
...eating, dancing...
**[04:34] ---**
...on the jubilant third night.
**[04:47] ---**
Sting-kun...
**[04:48] ---**
Can't you sleep?
**[04:51] ---**
Lector...
**[04:55] ---**
I have a feeling that I'm going
to fight Natsu-san tomorrow.
**[04:59] ---**
I've been waiting for that day...
**[05:02] ---**
...for seven years...
**[05:05] ---**
I know you'll win, Sting-kun!
**[05:32] ---**
Both you and Kagura have been
acting weird since we got back.
**[05:36] ---**
Did something happen?
**[05:40] ---**
It's not important...
**[05:44] ---**
Why is Jellal with Fairy Tail?
**[05:48] ---**
Does Er-chan know this?
**[05:52] ---**
If there's something weighing on your mind,
**[05:55] ---**
tell me what it is.
**[05:57] ---**
After all, we're teammates.
**[06:00] ---**
Thank you. But I'm fine.
**[06:03] ---**
It has nothing to do with the matches.
**[06:08] ---**
H-Hey... Hey...
**[06:10] ---**
Let's definitely win this thing!
**[06:13] ---**
I love this guild,
**[06:16] ---**
so I want to work even harder for everyone!
**[06:45] ---**
Sergeant Yukino Agria.
**[06:47] ---**
Please pardon my unannounced visit.
**[06:50] ---**
While various feelings crossed each other,
**[06:53] ---**
the third night of the tournament wore on.
**[07:01] ---**
We were heading for that day.
**[07:05] ---**
We had four days...
**[07:08] ---**
...until that fateful day.
**[07:17] ---**
Day four of the Grand Magic Games!
**[07:20] ---**
In just a moment, today's
competition will begin!
**[07:24] ---**
The name of the competition is "Naval Battle"!
**[07:27] ---**
In other words, a sea battle!
**[07:31] ---**
Any player who leaves the
sphere of water is out!
**[07:35] ---**
The last person to remain
in the sphere is the winner!
**[07:39] ---**
However, when it gets
down to two people left,
**[07:42] ---**
a special rule will come into effect.
**[07:45] ---**
That's the five-minute rule!
**[07:48] ---**
When there are two players
left, they've got five minutes!
**[07:50] ---**
The one person who leaves the sphere
during that time will be in last place.
**[07:55] ---**
So it's basically a sumo match in water.
**[07:58] ---**
I can't wait! Thank you
very much for inviting me!
**[08:02] ---**
Our guest today is Rabian-san, leader
of the Scheherazade Theatrical Troupe.
**[08:08] ---**
All of the teams are entering the water.
**[08:10] ---**
Cheria from Lamia Scale!
**[08:13] ---**
I tied yesterday, but I'll
try even harder today!
**[08:18] ---**
Jenny from Blue Pegasus!
**[08:21] ---**
There's no way I'll lose this time!
**[08:26] ---**
From Mermaid Heel, Risley!
**[08:29] ---**
Better not underestimate a mermaid!
**[08:33] ---**
Juvia from Fairy Tail B has
also entered the water!
**[08:36] ---**
Juvia *is* the water.
**[08:38] ---**
This is Juvia's exclusive territory.
**[08:47] ---**
Sabertooth's Minerva has arrived.
**[08:52] ---**
There she is... Minerva!
Listen to those cheers!
**[08:56] ---**
Sabertooth certainly did choose
their top five strongest to compete.
**[09:00] ---**
Thank you very much!
**[09:03] ---**
And Lucy from Fairy Tail A!
**[09:07] ---**
I can't lose either!
**[09:09] ---**
I have to redeem myself after
blowing it on the first day!
**[09:13] ---**
What a gorgeous tapestry we've got before us!
**[09:16] ---**
All of the players are female
and they're wearing swimsuits!
**[09:19] ---**
Thank you very much! Thank you
very much! Thank you very much!
**[09:24] ---**
Um...
**[09:25] ---**
I'm here, too... and I'm wild.
**[09:29] ---**
A man?
**[09:30] ---**
You clucked your tongue at me?!
**[09:32] ---**
The rules are simple. If you
leave the water, you're out.
**[09:36] ---**
In just a moment, the
Naval Battle will begin!
**[09:47] ---**
Go get 'em, Lucy!
**[09:49] ---**
Since she's in water, she
can use Aquarius, right?
**[09:52] ---**
This is a good contest for her.
**[09:54] ---**
Yep!
**[09:55] ---**
I think this match is Juvia's to lose.
**[09:59] ---**
I dunno...
**[10:00] ---**
Lucy can use plenty of other
Celestial Spirits beyond Aquarius.
**[10:05] ---**
We probably shouldn't make
light of Mermaid Heel either.
**[10:08] ---**
After all, they do have
"mermaid" in their name.
**[10:11] ---**
That Minerva looks like
a tough customer, too...
**[10:15] ---**
Lu-chan, do your best!
**[10:19] ---**
And now, let the Naval Battle begin!
**[10:22] ---**
Sorry, everyone, but right off the bat...
**[10:25] ---**
Open! Gate of the Water Bearer!
**[10:28] ---**
Aquarius!
**[10:32] ---**
A Celestial Spirit!
**[10:34] ---**
They've got a mermaid, too,
huh? The more the merrier!
**[10:39] ---**
Water is my garden!
**[10:45] ---**
Wild!
**[10:47] ---**
Oh, no, you don't! Water Cyclone!
**[10:53] ---**
Aquarius and Juvia's attacks
are colliding head on!
**[10:57] ---**
We've got a highlight right away!
**[10:59] ---**
Wow! I wonder which of them is stronger?!
**[11:03] ---**
Good luck, Juvia!
**[11:05] ---**
After her, good luck to you, too, Lucy!
**[11:08] ---**
And then, just a little
bit of good luck to Jenny!
**[11:12] ---**
The way you cheer is a pain.
**[11:15] ---**
Well, who do you think is going to win?
**[11:18] ---**
It's not even worth asking.
**[11:20] ---**
You let Juvia into water,
nobody else stands a chance.
**[11:25] ---**
I haven't seen you for a while, Aquarius-san.
**[11:28] ---**
Just because we're acquainted,
don't think I'm gonna hold back.
**[11:31] ---**
You took the words out of my mouth.
**[11:32] ---**
Aquarius really is amazing, huh?
**[11:35] ---**
I mean, she's not even takin'
a licking from Juvia's power!
**[11:38] ---**
But by that same argument,
**[11:39] ---**
I get the feeling that Juvia-san's
amazing for not losing to Aquarius-san!
**[11:44] ---**
We're even?!
**[11:46] ---**
Juvia is going to win!
**[11:47] ---**
Juvia can't let Gray-sama see
her shameful in battle!
**[11:53] ---**
It seems Juvia is worried
about how you see her.
**[11:59] ---**
You must realize by now
how Juvia feels about you.
**[12:03] ---**
Why not give her a clear-cut response?
**[12:12] ---**
Juvia!
**[12:13] ---**
My romantic rival!
**[12:14] ---**
You've got me all wrong!
**[12:19] ---**
What kind of fight is this?!
**[12:21] ---**
The toughest opponents are
taking each other out.
**[12:24] ---**
In that case, while I've got the chance...
**[12:30] ---**
I'll start with one!
**[12:32] ---**
Wild!
**[12:36] ---**
Quatro Puppy is out!
**[12:38] ---**
He was sucker punched by Jenny!
**[12:41] ---**
But only Quatro Puppy feels bad about that!
**[12:45] ---**
This crowd only cares about the girls!
**[12:48] ---**
Thank you very much! Thank you
very much! Thank you very much!
**[12:52] ---**
What was the point of me
being in there anyway?
**[12:56] ---**
That woman's cheap tricks know no bounds.
**[13:00] ---**
That kind of fighting is Jenny all over.
**[13:03] ---**
You know, that wasn't a compliment...
**[13:06] ---**
I've gotta do my best, too!
**[13:16] ---**
Never underestimate the chubby!
**[13:22] ---**
We'll never get anywhere at this rate!
**[13:24] ---**
I'm going back for now!
**[13:26] ---**
Wha? Why?!
**[13:28] ---**
In water, you're the one
I can count on the most!
**[13:32] ---**
I've got a date!
**[13:33] ---**
Hey!
**[13:34] ---**
Oh, my!
**[13:36] ---**
The Celestial Spirit, Aquarius,
left to go on a date!
**[13:39] ---**
She is a girl...
**[13:41] ---**
Boring...
**[13:45] ---**
You're wide open!
**[13:47] ---**
This is my chance to take
out my romantic rival!
**[13:52] ---**
Virgo! Aries!
**[13:59] ---**
I'm sorry this is so fluffy!
**[14:04] ---**
I'm your sexy guard, Princess!
**[14:08] ---**
That was close...
**[14:11] ---**
Thank you very much!
**[14:14] ---**
No matter how many you bring
out, the result is the same!
**[14:17] ---**
Virgo, Aries, do your best!
**[14:20] ---**
I'm better on land than in the water...
**[14:25] ---**
...but I'll try my best!
**[14:31] ---**
I've gotta do my best to impress, too!
**[14:34] ---**
Then give me your best shot!
**[14:39] ---**
Don't forget about me either!
**[14:41] ---**
Cheria!
**[14:42] ---**
Fairy Tail's Wendy-tan!
**[14:45] ---**
It looks like she wants to
get in on the action, too!
**[14:47] ---**
Well, her match did end in a draw yesterday.
**[14:50] ---**
She's as good as saying, "This time for sure,
I want to beat Cheria with my own hands!"
**[14:55] ---**
I'm not thinking that at all!
**[14:58] ---**
I wanted to see Wendy-tan fight...
**[15:02] ---**
Thank you very much for
helping my troupe last time!
**[15:07] ---**
Fairy Tail A!
**[15:09] ---**
Why didn't you let Wendy-tan do this one?!
**[15:12] ---**
It's not too late! Switch her in!
**[15:15] ---**
Thank you very much.
**[15:16] ---**
Shut up!
**[15:18] ---**
Juiva is going to knock you all out at once!
**[15:20] ---**
Nobody can win against Juvia in the water!
**[15:25] ---**
Juvia learned this move when
Second Origin was released...
**[15:28] ---**
This new special technique!
**[15:30] ---**
Go forth, wings of love!
**[15:33] ---**
Gray-sama, love!
**[15:37] ---**
Knock it off!
**[15:53] ---**
Fluffy guard at full throttle!
**[15:56] ---**
Princess, hang on!
**[15:57] ---**
Would you believe it?! Juvia
has knocked out three at once!
**[16:04] ---**
In a water battle, Juvia is unbeatable!
**[16:09] ---**
I wasn't able to muster as much
power as I thought in the water...
**[16:13] ---**
You gave it your all, Cheria!
**[16:16] ---**
Did you feel something while
watching Juvia, Gray-sama?
**[16:25] ---**
He's totally turned off!
**[16:31] ---**
Juvia!
**[16:34] ---**
She was outstanding, but
unfortunately, she's out!
**[16:37] ---**
But even so, for third place,
**[16:39] ---**
her team gets six points!
**[16:41] ---**
That idiot...
**[16:43] ---**
She went out of the sphere.
**[16:44] ---**
Why? Was she not paying attention?
**[16:49] ---**
Our lady is a mischievous one.
**[16:51] ---**
With her magic, she should've been able to
get them all out of the sphere in an instant.
**[16:56] ---**
She's already won this.
**[17:01] ---**
Only Minerva and Lucy are left.
**[17:03] ---**
Lucy's Celestial Spirits
have gone home for now.
**[17:06] ---**
To avoid depleting her magic and
physical strength, most likely.
**[17:10] ---**
Alright! Who's gonna win this,
Sabertooth or Fairy Tail?!
**[17:18] ---**
The five-minute rule comes into play now!
**[17:21] ---**
The person who leaves the sphere in the
next five minutes will be in last place!
**[17:26] ---**
I wonder what this rule is for...
**[17:28] ---**
It's to keep the tension
high to the very end.
**[17:32] ---**
Thank you very much.
**[17:34] ---**
With my magic, I could have you
outside of here in a flash,
**[17:39] ---**
but that would spoil the fun.
**[17:43] ---**
Try to withstand this, Fairy Tail.
**[17:50] ---**
What is that?!
**[17:56] ---**
Heat?
**[17:57] ---**
In the water?!
**[18:00] ---**
Lucy!
**[18:01] ---**
What the hell kind of magic is that?!
**[18:07] ---**
Th-That time it was heavy...
**[18:10] ---**
Felt like lead...
**[18:12] ---**
If I don't get a Celestial Spirit out here...
**[18:16] ---**
Huh? Where are my keys?!
**[18:24] ---**
When did she...?!
**[18:34] ---**
If Lucy exits the sphere now,
she'll be in last place!
**[18:46] ---**
Oh?
**[18:54] ---**
It's hot again!
**[18:56] ---**
Feels like I'll get burned!
**[18:58] ---**
Lucy!
**[18:59] ---**
She can't use any magic with her keys stolen!
**[19:04] ---**
No matter what...
**[19:08] ---**
...kind of attack you throw at me...
**[19:13] ---**
...I'm gonna...
**[19:14] ---**
...take it!
**[19:19] ---**
Maybe it's about time for
me to put you outside?
**[19:24] ---**
If I lose now...
**[19:29] ---**
...I won't be able to face everyone...
**[19:32] ---**
...who got me here!
**[19:39] ---**
I can't betray everyone's feelings!
**[19:43] ---**
That's why...
**[19:45] ---**
...there's no way I'm gonna give up!
**[19:57] ---**
W-What's going on here?!
**[20:00] ---**
Minerva's attacks have stopped!
**[20:03] ---**
And just like that...
**[20:06] ---**
...the five minutes are up!
**[20:07] ---**
Yes!
**[20:09] ---**
All that's left is ranking them!
**[20:27] ---**
Lucy!
**[20:30] ---**
You're arrogant, Fairy Tail!
**[20:33] ---**
What do you know of us?!
**[20:37] ---**
We are this world's number one guild!
**[20:41] ---**
We're Sabertooth!
**[20:47] ---**
This time for sure she's going out...
**[20:50] ---**
She vanished?!
**[20:55] ---**
Lucy was going to be knocked
out of the sphere...
**[20:58] ---**
...but somehow, she's appeared
in front of Minerva!
**[20:59] ---**
Is it that woman's magic?!
**[21:01] ---**
Why would she bother bringing her back?
**[21:03] ---**
Does she intend to rough Lucy up?!
**[21:05] ---**
The match is already over!
**[21:08] ---**
And now a body blow!
**[21:10] ---**
Even without using magic,
Minerva has incredible power!
**[21:16] ---**
Please stop. Now you're just being cruel.
**[21:19] ---**
Thank you very much!
**[21:21] ---**
She's still in the water, so she's not down!
**[21:24] ---**
She's just taking a beating!
**[21:27] ---**
Stop!!
**[21:33] ---**
Sabertooth!
**[21:35] ---**
Do you know what it means to dis Sabertooth?
**[21:40] ---**
I'm going to teach you with her body!
**[21:43] ---**
Stop this! She'll destroy
the Celestial Spirit wizard!
**[21:47] ---**
Stop the competition!
**[21:50] ---**
The referee has stopped it!
**[21:53] ---**
The competition is over!
**[21:55] ---**
The winner is Minerva!
**[21:57] ---**
Sabertooth really is strong!
**[22:00] ---**
Lucy hasn't moved for a
while, but is she okay?!
**[22:06] ---**
Lucy!
**[22:19] ---**
Lucy!!
**[23:55] ---**
At last!
**[23:56] ---**
The identity of that weird rabbit is...
**[24:02] ---**
*That person?!*
**[24:03] ---**
Hey, Natsu, when is it you say
the words "I feel sick"?
**[24:07] ---**
Where's that question coming from?
**[24:09] ---**
Anyway, I guess I say it
when I have motion sickness.
**[24:10] ---**
What other situation?
**[24:12] ---**
Like when I eat too much?
**[24:13] ---**
Next time: The Perfume I Dedicate to You!
**[24:16] ---**
You don't use it with people?
**[24:18] ---**
Uh-uh.
**[24:19] ---**
I see... Then I've got a feeling
I can't put into words...
