[00:00] ---
    It's the battle part of day
    four of the Grand Magic Games!
[00:03] ---
    Due to the disqualification of Raven Tail,
[00:06] ---
    Fairy Tail's A and B teams have merged
    and are now in a tag team battle!
[00:10] ---
    Their opponents are Sabertooth!
[00:12] ---
    It's a dream showdown between
    four Dragon Slayers!
[00:16] ---
    Who will win, Fairy or Tiger?!
[01:50] ---
    Wh-What's this?!
[01:53] ---
    Sting and Rogue...
[01:55] ---
    The Twin Dragons of Fiore's
    strongest guild are on the ropes!
[02:00] ---
    He really is strong... But I'd
    be disappointed otherwise.
[02:03] ---
    Gajeel...
[02:05] ---
    Did you two really defeat
    dragons with power like that?
[02:09] ---
    Not defeat...
[02:12] ---
    I killed a dragon with this very hand.
[02:15] ---
    Wasn't it your parent?
[02:17] ---
    It's got nothin' to do with you.
[02:20] ---
    From now, I'm gonna show you
    the power that killed a dragon!
[02:24] ---
    White Drive...
[02:28] ---
    Shadow Drive.
[02:39] ---
    Sting and Rogue, the Twin
    Dragons of Sabertooth...
[02:43] ---
    Dragon Slayers, like Natsu and Gajeel...
[02:47] ---
    But their magic is still an unknown...
[02:49] ---
    Well, let's see what happens...
[02:53] ---
    I think they're done testing each other.
[02:56] ---
    From here on in, they're going to get
    serious, so let's really cheer them on!
[03:00] ---
    It's over, garbage guild.
[03:03] ---
    Sting...
[03:04] ---
    Yeah...
[03:06] ---
    Alright, the silent face-off continues...
[03:10] ---
    ...but the entire arena
    is filled with tension.
[03:13] ---
    Which side will make the first move?!
[03:20] ---
    Sabertooth's Sting makes his move!
[03:23] ---
    Fairy Tail's Natsu held it back!
[03:26] ---
    Receive Holy White Judgment!
[03:31] ---
    Salamander!
[03:38] ---
    Oh, my! It looks like Fairy Tail's Gajeel
    is at the mercy of Rogue's Shadow Drive!
[03:44] ---
    You can't get ahold of shadows.
[03:50] ---
    Take this!
[03:57] ---
    Don't get in my way!
[04:00] ---
    Squabbling in the middle of a match?!
    You guys sure have confidence!
[04:06] ---
    Their power has suddenly increased.
[04:08] ---
    Is that a kind of Dragon Slayer Magic?
[04:11] ---
    Take care of business, Natsu!
[04:14] ---
    What the hell?! You've gotten
    faster for some reason...
[04:17] ---
    Come on, come on, Natsu-san!
    You call that defense?!
[04:25] ---
    What on Earthland...?
[04:27] ---
    It's a magic amplification technique.
[04:29] ---
    On top of that, their combination
    skills are seamless.
[04:33] ---
    This isn't as thrilling as I thought it'd be.
[04:36] ---
    Compared to those two, it seems Fairy
    Tail's duo aren't in sync with each other.
[04:42] ---
    Go! You're in your assured victory pattern!
[04:46] ---
    Fro thinks so, too!
[04:51] ---
    Four Dragons!
[04:55] ---
    Sabertooth!
[05:03] ---
    The tone of the crowd's cheering has changed.
[05:06] ---
    Natsu-san and Gajeel-san...
[05:08] ---
    ...may be in trouble.
[05:11] ---
    It's only just begun. There's
    no need to be so anxious.
[05:17] ---
    I admired you for the longest time!
[05:21] ---
    And then I set my sights on surpassing you!
[05:25] ---
    Now is that time!
[05:28] ---
    Natsu!
[05:29] ---
    That attack just now...
[05:31] ---
    There's something different about
    it compared to previous attacks.
[05:35] ---
    What do you mean?
[05:37] ---
    And what the hell is that?! It
    looks like a Magic Circle...
[05:44] ---
    C-Can't...
[05:46] ---
    ...move!
[05:47] ---
    The Claw of the White
    Dragon is a holy attack.
[05:51] ---
    A body that's marked by its
    stigmata loses its freedom.
[05:56] ---
    And with this, I'll surpass you!
[06:04] ---
    The dragon that becomes
    shadow hides its form.
[06:09] ---
    It always takes down its prey!
[06:13] ---
    It always takes down...
[06:16] ---
    What is it?
[06:18] ---
    Yeah!
[06:20] ---
    That's the way, Gajeel!
[06:21] ---
    He caught him! Even though before,
    he wasn't even able to land a hit!
[06:25] ---
    Of course! After fighting for a
    while, Gajeel gets used to it.
[06:30] ---
    Natsu can do the same thing with ease!
[06:32] ---
    Get 'im, Natsu!
[06:42] ---
    How can you move?!
[06:46] ---
    You burned off the stigmata!
[06:49] ---
    Not too shabby...
[06:52] ---
    But you've got a ways to go.
[06:55] ---
    He burned it off... That
    guy knows no bounds...
[06:59] ---
    "Only the Salamander could do
    that..." I guess I should say...
[07:02] ---
    Don't get too stuck on yourselves, brats.
[07:06] ---
    And don't make light of Fairy Tail!
[07:12] ---
    Just like that! Go! Go!
[07:14] ---
    That was great, Gajeel!
[07:16] ---
    I-I can't breathe... Calm down, Levy!
[07:20] ---
    Oh, my! The course of the
    battle has just shifted again!
[07:26] ---
    You guys really are the best.
[07:32] ---
    We have to give this our all and then some.
[07:36] ---
    The Fist of the White Dragon even
    reduces flames to smithereens.
[07:41] ---
    What is that magic?! The
    pressure is incredible!
[07:45] ---
    I don't like this... I think it might be...
[07:47] ---
    S-So bright! Yajima-san, what is this?!
[07:51] ---
    Sting-kun is concentrating his
    magic into a single point.
[07:56] ---
    Here I go, Natsu-san!
[07:59] ---
    Dragon Slayer Arcana!
[08:01] ---
    Holy Nova!
[08:23] ---
    Whoa! What's this?!
[08:25] ---
    He stopped that tremendous
    attack with one hand!
[08:31] ---
    I-I don't believe it...
[08:33] ---
    Huh?
[08:37] ---
    No way...
[08:38] ---
    I have no memory of that
    skill ever being blocked.
[08:41] ---
    I see...
[08:43] ---
    Now it makes sense why he would
    storm into our inn on his own.
[08:47] ---
    I wonder what I could have seen
    if I hadn't stopped him then...
[08:53] ---
    Sting-kun...
[08:55] ---
    Yajima-san, what do you make of this?!
[08:57] ---
    Gajeel!
[09:06] ---
    Rogue...
[09:10] ---
    So three months of training and Second Origin
[09:14] ---
    made these two this strong, eh?
[09:20] ---
    They belong to totally different ranks.
[09:29] ---
    Even I can pick up on it.
[09:31] ---
    The way they're cheering
    has changed again, right?
[09:34] ---
    Yes.
[09:37] ---
    Lucy, you were awake?
[09:38] ---
    Yeah. I just can't sleep.
[09:43] ---
    Natsu and Gajeel will win, won't they?
[09:47] ---
    Wh-Who could have foreseen this development?!
[09:52] ---
    The Twin Dragons of Sabertooth,
    helpless before Fairy Tail!
[09:57] ---
    Will the match end like this?!
[10:03] ---
    Like hell it'll end...
[10:05] ---
    Yeah...
[10:06] ---
    I knew this wasn't gonna be
    an easy wall to get over...
[10:16] ---
    Sting-kun...
[10:19] ---
    I know, Lector...
[10:24] ---
    We made a promise, right?
[10:32] ---
    I'm not gonna lose.
[10:40] ---
    I can't lose...
[10:42] ---
    For Lector's sake...
[10:47] ---
    What the hell is this magic?!
[10:50] ---
    They're...
[10:52] ---
    Wh-What is this...?
[10:54] ---
    Tremble at the true power
    of the Third Generation.
[10:58] ---
    Impossible! They can activate
    it with their own will?!
[11:03] ---
    Dragon Force...
[11:05] ---
    Natsu kinda looked like that
    at the Tower of Heaven...
[11:09] ---
    Yeah. Except...
[11:12] ---
    ...he gained the power
    then by eating Etherion.
[11:16] ---
    And that time with Zero too, he unleashed
    that power by eating all of my magic.
[11:22] ---
    But they're able to release the
    power of the Dragon by willing it?!
[11:30] ---
    This is the Third Generation
    of Dragon Slayers.
[11:35] ---
    Rogue, hang back.
[11:40] ---
    I can take both of them on by myself.
[11:58] ---
    U-Until just a minute ago,
    Sabertooth was being dominated!
[12:03] ---
    Unbelievably, he's challenged both of them!
[12:06] ---
    That's how much confidence he has, huh?
[12:09] ---
    That's right!
[12:10] ---
    Sting-kun and Rogue-kun have Dragon Force.
[12:14] ---
    There's no way they can lose!
[12:16] ---
    I was worried for nothing!
[12:19] ---
    Fro forgot about Dragon Force, too!
[12:22] ---
    I haven't seen it yet, but
    is it really all that?
[12:27] ---
    Yeah. At this rate, the
    odds are against them.
[12:30] ---
    It's gotten quiet...
[12:32] ---
    Maybe they're finished?
[12:34] ---
    No. It begins here...
[12:36] ---
    Shall I check it out?
[12:38] ---
    No, you don't have to.
[12:41] ---
    I'm sure Natsu and Gajeel will be fine.
[12:51] ---
    They're lookin' down on us...
[12:53] ---
    But this feeling...
[12:55] ---
    He's strong.
[13:15] ---
    I-It's different...
[13:16] ---
    Totally different from before!
[13:18] ---
    Natsu-nii...
[13:26] ---
    Holy Breath of the White Dragon!
[13:36] ---
    W-What is it?!
[13:38] ---
    We can feel the magic at this distance?!
[13:41] ---
    That's because it's a battle
    between Dragon Slayers.
[13:44] ---
    The cost is going to be heavy.
[13:47] ---
    Natsu...
[13:49] ---
    Gajeel...
[13:55] ---
    Oh, dear! What is going on here?!
[13:58] ---
    The floor of the arena is...
[14:00] ---
    ...crumbling?!
[14:02] ---
    That was one fierce breath...
[14:05] ---
    What incredible force...
[14:07] ---
    Is this the power of the Third
    Generation Dragon Slayers?!
[14:12] ---
    Gajeel!
[14:14] ---
    Natsu!
[14:16] ---
    It seems the battlefield is
    moving underneath the arena,
[14:20] ---
    but the match will continue!
[14:22] ---
    Everyone, please enjoy it on Lacrima-Vision!
[14:27] ---
    I'm just getting started!
[14:34] ---
    Sword Horn of the Fire Dragon!
[14:39] ---
    Roar of the Iron Dragon!
[14:53] ---
    The light of the White Dragon
    purifies all things...
[14:58] ---
    Holy Ray!
[15:06] ---
    Light?!
[15:08] ---
    Holy attribute magic...
[15:21] ---
    Fly.
[15:25] ---
    Natsu can't guard against him?!
[15:28] ---
    What happened to that confident
    mood from just before?!
[15:48] ---
    Sting-kun really is strong, huh?
[15:51] ---
    Fro thinks so, too!
[15:54] ---
    Lector... I made you a promise...
[15:59] ---
    ...so I'm definitely gonna win!
[16:10] ---
    Were you bullied again, Lector?
[16:14] ---
    After all... nobody believes me!
[16:18] ---
    I told them you beat a dragon, Sting-kun!
[16:21] ---
    I'm not lying about it!
[16:26] ---
    I know.
[16:28] ---
    Never mind jerks like that.
[16:30] ---
    I can't! They were saying bad
    things about you, Sting-kun!
[16:35] ---
    I don't care.
[16:37] ---
    I... I...
[16:41] ---
    I hate it when people say
    bad things about my friend!
[16:48] ---
    Okay.
[16:50] ---
    Then I'll prove you're not a liar.
[16:56] ---
    There may not be any more dragons, but there
    is somebody called "Salamander", right?
[17:02] ---
    One day, I'll beat him,
    right in front of everybody.
[17:08] ---
    I promise.
[17:26] ---
    Are you watching this, Lector?!
[17:29] ---
    I'm watching, Sting-kun!
[17:35] ---
    It's become quiet again...
[17:38] ---
    Could those tremors from before mean...?
[17:42] ---
    It's alright. I mean, it's those two...
[17:47] ---
    Right?
[17:49] ---
    Natsu... Gajeel...
[17:53] ---
    Times change.
[17:56] ---
    The span of seven years has allowed us
    to develop into true Dragon Slayers.
[18:03] ---
    The time of the old generation is over.
[18:07] ---
    Yeah.
[18:09] ---
    Uh-oh! They're not even twitching!
[18:13] ---
    It's been a breathless seesaw battle,
[18:16] ---
    but has Fairy Tail finally run out of steam?!
[18:20] ---
    Natsu...
[18:22] ---
    Gajeel...
[18:23] ---
    What's wrong?! Get up!
[18:25] ---
    You're stronger than this!
[18:28] ---
    Even Natsu and Gajeel can't beat them?!
[18:30] ---
    Damn, this sticks in my craw...
[18:33] ---
    Natsu-nii! Stand up!
[18:39] ---
    But you really were strong,
[18:42] ---
    Natsu-san... Gajeel-san...
[18:46] ---
    Are both of them down?!
[18:49] ---
    Stand up, Natsu! Gajeel!
[18:51] ---
    You can hear our voices, can't you?!
[18:54] ---
    The guild's thoughts are one!
[18:59] ---
    They're one with you!
[19:03] ---
    Sting!
[19:04] ---
    Yeah... Sorry I took Gajeel-san down, too.
[19:09] ---
    But, y'know...
[19:10] ---
    ...I kept my promise.
[19:14] ---
    Don't be too hasty...
[19:19] ---
    Fairy Tail!
[19:26] ---
    Lucy-san! It feels like...
[19:29] ---
    That's them, alright. No matter how many
    times they fall, they always get up again.
[19:34] ---
    I don't know if that should
    be called tough or stubborn...
[19:37] ---
    Awesome! I knew they could do it!
[19:39] ---
    Look at that, Levy! Our voices reached 'em!
[19:43] ---
    They're standing!
[19:45] ---
    We'd be in a bind if they weren't.
[19:48] ---
    Ow...
[19:50] ---
    You're better than I thought.
[19:52] ---
    Incredibly, they're alive and kicking!
[19:55] ---
    But I saw through all of your habits.
[19:59] ---
    What?!
[20:01] ---
    No way... It can't be...
[20:04] ---
    This is a bad dream...
[20:08] ---
    Fro thinks so, too...
[20:11] ---
    Your attack timing... Your
    posture when you defend...
[20:15] ---
    Even the rhythm of your breathing...
[20:17] ---
    What?!
[20:18] ---
    That's ridiculous! I'm using Dragon Force!
[20:22] ---
    Yeah, and it packs a wallop!
    My body aches all over, dammit!
[20:27] ---
    Don't get rattled, Sting. He's bluffing.
[20:30] ---
    Bluffin', you say?
[20:32] ---
    You really think the Salamander can pull
    off a trick that requires usin' his brain?!
[20:35] ---
    Oh, shut up!
[20:38] ---
    For example, when you attack,
    your pivot foot is facing 11:00.
[20:42] ---
    Nah, it's 10:00.
[20:44] ---
    It's 11:00!
[20:45] ---
    I could let you slide with
    10:30, but not 11:00!
[20:50] ---
    I say it's 11:00! 23:00 is fine, too!
[20:53] ---
    That's going around 360 degrees!
[20:59] ---
    What are those two fools doing?!
[21:03] ---
    They've got energy to spare. And that means
    they've still got fight left in them.
[21:07] ---
    Arguing at a time like this...
[21:10] ---
    Yeesh, they make me wanna crawl in a hole...
[21:13] ---
    Oh, don't be like that. You
    and Natsu are two of a kind.
[21:18] ---
    When you look at me objectively,
    that's what you see?
[21:21] ---
    Clam it, already!
[21:23] ---
    Wha...?!
[21:25] ---
    Hey! You bastard!
[21:27] ---
    Wh-What is this?!
[21:32] ---
    Wh-What are you doing?
[21:35] ---
    Gajeel...
[21:37] ---
    I've totally gotta pay you
    back for lookin' down on us.
[21:45] ---
    I can take both of you on by myself.
[21:48] ---
    Go ahead, attack me at the same time!
[21:51] ---
    Oh, boy! Now Natsu Dragneel of Fairy Tail
[21:55] ---
    is challenging the two of them to a battle!
[22:00] ---
    You're fired up, ain'tcha?
[23:33] ---
    You'll pay for this, Salamander!
[23:37] ---
    I swear, later...
[23:55] ---
    Natsu, I trust you!
[23:57] ---
    Leave it to me. Keep believin'!
[23:59] ---
    You'd never betray me, would you?
[24:01] ---
    I thought this was about
    the match... Of course not!
[24:03] ---
    Natsu, you'd never do anything
    to make me sad, right?!
[24:06] ---
    I wouldn't let anybody make you sad, Happy!
[24:08] ---
    Listen... Somebody ate my fish!
[24:13] ---
    Next time: Natsu vs. the Twin Dragons!
[24:17] ---
    Happy... You gotta believe me...
[24:18] ---
    Natsu...
[24:19] ---
    I-I didn't know it was yours, Happy!
[24:22] ---
    Natsu!
