Chapter 340: Can you do it? If not, I will replace you
The Phantom Lord's mobile fortress shook violently under the assault.
Elfman, Cana, and Loke had braced themselves in advance, but most of the Phantom squad stationed beneath the massive magic cannon stumbled and fell as the floor tilted under them.
"Perfect timing!" Cana shouted, flinging a handful of cards. Flames, wind, and lightning burst forth in rapid succession, engulfing the narrow corridor under the cannon's barrel.
The open passage quickly turned into a blazing inferno. Screams erupted from the Phantom members caught in the blast, some were burned, some blown back, and others turned to flee in a panic.
"Bad idea to run blindly," Loke warned, flashing the golden ring on his finger. A radiant beam of light burst forth, forcing several enemies to shield their eyes in pain.
"MEN fight with their fists!" Elfman roared as he activated Beast Soul: The Beast King, barreling forward with devastating strength. His right fist sent a Phantom mage flying through the corridor; his left sweep knocked three more into the wall like they were nothing but trash bags.
The three Fairy Tail wizards seized the opening and stormed through the gate beneath the cannon.
"Natsu, let's go!" Gray shouted from below, already charging forward.
"Nah, our way's faster!" Natsu grinned through the nausea. "Happy, full speed ahead!"
"Aye, sir!" Happy grabbed Natsu and soared straight for the cannon's barrel, wings fluttering as they closed the gap.
"Tch... This idiot..." Gray knew what Natsu was planning the moment he veered off-course. Who else would think charging the front of the enemy's cannon was a good idea?
