Natsu's standard punch has always been named "Fire Dragon's Iron Fist".

nice chapter i knew he would not get pawned like people said natsu has gotten powerful he can use both fire and lightning looks like with not tiring out

[hoeru]

Good chapter. Minerva as hot and strong as expected, I'm only sorry for her not being a Godslayer as I predicted... ^_^ For now, I find her "Yin Yang" magic pretty interesting.

And wait! Is that a fish scale in Happy's paws?!

Happy is tied up so that's a rope...

Do you see any scratches on Gemma as they were on Natsu for that one attack from Gemma? Gemma seemed cleary stonger than Natsu to me. It wouldn't make much sense anyways if Gemma was a weak numbskull.

"Tekken" already meant "Iron Fist". If Natsu were to deal hits based on iron element, it would be called sth. like "Tetsuenryuu no ..." ("Iron Fire ...)".

havent posted anything in a long time but it is really good to see natsu be serious, you know that when he's serious stuff is going to go down. I really like the chapter and it looks like the arc is headed in a new direction.

Title of the chapter was a little misleading, but at least Natsu actually attacked Gemma. Before everyone starts saying how "weak" Gemma is, please remember that not a single one of those hits Natsu landed did jack squat, and that Minerva said Natsu would've gotten owned, after blocking Natsu's attack perfectly. Chapter was kinda short.....it was cool though. Was hoping to see one attack from Gemma. Got to admit though, Mashima's pretty good at making old people look badass.

So will dobengal and the 'extras' of sabretooth need to get naked and get leave the guild since they were beaten by a single guy ? if they did , most probably half of the guild have to leave haha

[liductan]

It wouldn't matter if they left, clearly only about members make up the guild anyway. Everyone else appears to fodders, then again who knows...

Very good chapter. It's sad that Happy got caught at the entrance, would've been great to see a full blown fight. Also funny to see that Sting and Rogue and the other two were actually sweating at Natsu's confidence and his beat down with Gemma. Let's face it, they are only in Gemma's guild because he's strong. Otherwise, they wouldn't be so uptight when he gives them commands or humiliates a guild member. The fact that Natsu just destroyed a top 10 guild member and violated Gemma can only mean they seriously underestimated him and that's the reason the top 4 got all nervous.

Minerva pulled a fast one, but she didn't seem that intimidated by Natsu. Could she be #1 of the top 5? Very interesting developments!

what if Gildarts is there with FT and trained the same way as Natsu and Co.

I was nervous at how the chapter would come out. Now that I saw it, I was amazed. I was expecting Natsu to be pawned but then Minerva and Happy happened. It's such an epic chapter. I loved the way Natsu picked up Happy and left the guild leaving this impact on them and you just got to love the Sting's expression. So epic. It was so short, I felt like there should be more.

I can't see Gemma being someone as an enemy to be fought by fairy tail as a main villain in this arc. I just feel as though something big is going to happen in the tournament that will change Sabertooth by the end of the arc.

The next chapter's title is "Pandemonium" which is quite misleading seeing there are many ways to view it. But according to the one who invented the word who was English poet John Milton (1608-1674) in his poem "Paradise Lost"; Pandemonium is what he calls the "capital" or center of hell, Pandemonium is where Satan and his peers live.

I can only think of the implication of what will happen if Arcadios gets the gate to be opened and that's still chapters away. There is also Raven tail. Among the three candidates for villains in the chapter, Raven tail has yet to show what their intentions are by showing up. Mavis has suspicions and Makarov once said that he left fairy tail possessing a very important information about fairy tail. As for Sabertooth, I see them as the most honest one seeing as their priority is strength, Laxus' once ideal guild for fairy tail but then again there may be a deeper story into that which I hope to be revealed soon.

Good chapter. Minerva is interesting enough. Natsu's barrage was rather impressive even if it appears as though he only managed to annoy Gemma at best. Sting & Rogue's reactions were relatively surprising considering that its typical for Fairy Tail to be considered by their opponents to be trash. Natsu's departure from Sabertooth was well done. Looking forward to the next chapter.

It was nice to see Natsu shine this chapter, since it's been a long time since he's kicked ass without an 11th hour powerup.
Looks like Minerva uses some kind of Magatama magic. She also seemed totally unfazed by Natsu, while the other Sabertooth team members were totally rattled. I wonder if that means that she's the Gildartz of the guild?
The way that Natsu gave up the fight for Happy speaks volumes, especially in the White Dragon Slayer's reaction. I definitely think this feed into some kind of change of character for Sting.

Man I loved this week's chapter. Natsu really fired himself up and went at it. Dobengal getting pwned was hilarious and Natsu's new Iron Fist is awesome. Can't wait to see all the Lightning Fire techniques Natsu has now.

Looking forward to day 3 of the tournament. Minerva vs Erza anyone?
