Chapter 489: Galakal Island
This guy isn't alone?
No... this guy has an accomplice? Who is it?
Ultear looked at Kira in shock. After a few seconds, a bad guess came to his mind. His eyes suddenly widened. "No way?! Could it be..."
This shocked expression is great! Open your mouth a little wider...
Kira was very satisfied with Urrutia's expression, so he decided to add some drama to himself: "I am a businessman, so I always like to use the smallest cost to exchange for the greatest benefit, and the same method applies to the matter of war."
"Sending a small number of elite troops to fight the enemy's 'Twelve Shields' can save hundreds of thousands of people from a war, which is much better than Zeref's 'Human Extinction Plan'; starting a war on enemy territory can make the Kingdom of Fiore bear the brunt of the war... These are the same principle."
"Businessman? You are also called a businessman?"
Urrutia complained wildly, "Merchants are at most war speculators, using arms and food to make money, and the more ruthless ones even use the population, but in your case... you are clearly a big bad guy who is only looking for trouble in the world!!"
Eh? Really?
"I'm not, don't talk nonsense! How can a bad guy be as kind as me?!"
"You just said there are accomplices? They should be Disper and others, right?"
“That’s right!”
Kira admitted it without hesitation, "If the three of them act together, no one in the entire Western Continent can stop them unless they meet Zeref, August, or Irene."
This is indeed...
Urrutia sighed helplessly and asked again, "Does Gerard know?"
"I didn't tell him. With his personality, he might not get involved. He might even stop me. As for Preshito... he should be able to see that I have other plans, but he doesn't know the specific actions."
Hearing that Preshito didn't pretend to be blind, Urrutia immediately stopped the topic and couldn't help but complain: "Why do you people from Fairy Tail always have dangerous people..."
"Compared to Jellal, our danger level is relatively low!"
Kira did not comment on this. "Anyway, now that he is away, it is a good time for us to steal the house! While the first generation and that old guy Preshito are holding Auguste back, we should catch the remaining 'Twelve Shields' as quickly as possible. It would be best if we just go back and lock them up, so that we can rest assured in the future!"
"So, you have a way to deal with that Irene?"
"Uh... well..."
Irene is not Auguste, and does not attach much importance to the mother-daughter relationship between her and Erza, so Kira does not have a trump card like Mavis . She is not a person with clear goals or hobbies. She is considered the most difficult person to deal with among the "Twelve Shields", and it is likely that she can only be defeated by fighting.
After thinking for a moment, Kira could only reply awkwardly: "I'm not completely sure, I can only try my best. If it doesn't work..."
"Um?"
"Then I can only use the beauty trap!"
BANG!!
Kira was knocked to the ground by Urrutia again.
…
Between the two continents of Ishgar and Arakitasia, there are several islands of various sizes and shapes. It is not known whether they were left behind during the movement of the plates or formed by underwater volcanic eruptions.
These islands belong neither to Ishgar nor to Araquitasia, and are equivalent to the middle area between the two continents.
They are not under the jurisdiction of any kingdom. Although there are troops stationed there, there are not sufficiently complete laws. At the same time, because there are many tourists traveling between the two places, there are many merchants.
Among them, there is a small island called Galakal, which is a tourist destination.
At this moment, accompanied by a heavy muffled sound, a strangely shaped steel sailboat approached the shore. After dropping the anchor and the ladder, several familiar figures walked down from it.
"We're finally docked! Have we reached the Albareth Empire?" Natsu ran off the boat excitedly.
Although this ship would not make the Dragon Slayer feel dizzy, Natsu was still not used to riding in public transportation, and for him, that reaction had already affected him from the physical to the psychological.
"Idiot! How can it be so fast?"
Gray came up from behind and said, "It takes about 10 days to get from Ishgar to Aragitacia. We still have at least half the distance to go!"
Hearing this, Natsu and Happy's faces fell at the same time: "Huh?! It's going to take so long? Then why are we here?"
"Of course we're here to replenish supplies!"
The Thunder Gods came over together. Alba Green put her left hand on her waist and put her right hand directly in front of Natsu and Happy, accusing them unhappily, "Because of the sudden addition of you guys, the food we prepared in advance can't even last until the Western Continent. Of course, we can only stop here to replenish supplies!"
"You guys are still alive today, you should thank us!"
Natsu, Happy, and Gray all bowed and shouted sincerely, "Thank you for the hospitality!!"
The way these people acted like they had gotten something for nothing made Alba Green so angry that her chest ached.
On the other side, Erza, Lucy and Wendy were shopping together.
Handsome, sweet and pure, three different types of beautiful girls walked side by side in half-revealing and translucent swimsuits, looking at everything on the island curiously. Amidst their laughter and joy, their fair and heavy looks were fully displayed, and for a moment they became a beautiful landscape on the island.
The gazes that fell on Erza and the other two were like a hungry wolf seeing a fat sheep waiting to be slaughtered. One was agile, one was plump, and the other was a tender little lamb.
"What a nice view……"
“It’s perfect!”
“She’s simply a goddess!!”
Such a hot scene made a group of young and hot-blooded men feel overwhelmed. They were full of fantasies, their faces flushed, and they looked up, as if they would rush up to ask for the contact information the next moment and then start a thrilling love affair.
Unfortunately, Erza and the other two did not respond to the enthusiastic gazes of these men, but instead focused on shopping.
“Ohhhh!!”
"Come and look, Wendy, this looks delicious!!"
"Lucy-san, this is so cute!!"
"This dress seems to suit you very well, Erza!"
After landing, the group was divided into two teams: one team was responsible for replenishing food, water and other supplies on the ship; the other team was responsible for gathering intelligence on the Albares Empire on the island.
Among them, Natsu, Gray, Happy and Thunder God belong to the former; the rest belong to the latter, but in the end Laxus said he wanted to act alone and left first, so now only Erza, Lucy, Wendy and Charlu are left here.
It turned out that Laxus's choice was right.
If he followed these beautiful girls, the least he could do was to be looked down upon and hated by the crowd. The most important thing was that they might not be able to find out any information.
Erza and the other two ate, drank and had fun along the street for over an hour, and soon forgot about everyone else. If they hadn't been thinking about the comfort of the president and the others, they would have been addicted to the colorful world before them.
After an unknown amount of time, the three of them finally seemed tired of shopping, so they stopped their crazy shopping and walked to a dessert shop that looked very good, and lined up in a long line.
Star Dessert Shop, a very famous dessert shop on Galak Island.
I heard that this dessert shop was once listed as the "top 1 dessert" in a certain issue of a food magazine. It is very famous. Tourists from Ishgar and Alakitasia all praise this dessert shop.
The owner of the Starlight Dessert Shop is a bald, gentle-looking middle-aged man wearing square glasses and a short beard. He wears an open-chested floral shirt on the upper body and the common swimsuit pants on the lower body, revealing the thick leg hair on his calves, and a pair of flip-flops on his feet.
Although the store is small and can only seat three or four customers, it is extremely popular and there is a very long line. A quick glance shows that there are twenty or thirty people in front of the three people.
"Starlight... I wonder how delicious it is?"
"It must be great! I think everyone who has eaten it says it's good!"
"But there are still many people ahead of us. I wonder if there will be any left when it's our turn..."
"I can't wait..."
Erza looked very excited , with two cute blushes on her face.
