Chapter 711 Meeting
On the evening of July 4th, Kira and Laxus each took their team members to find a place to hold a meeting.
"What do you think of tomorrow's match?"
In the tavern, just as Kira finished speaking, Natsu's voice rang out: "I want to fight alone!!"
Singles... Do you think you're playing tennis? How about a singles number 3?
Kira complained inwardly and said calmly, "I think apart from Gray and Lucy, no one else can cooperate with you."
"Nonsense!" Natsu immediately refused to accept it, crossed his arms, and blew two streams of air from his nostrils. He retorted, "There are also Happy, Erza, and Wendy!"
Urrutia rested his chin on the table with one hand, and complained speechlessly: "Anyway, it's just the people in your team. Apart from them, you can't even cooperate with other people in your guild, such as Cana..."
Among the ten members, she was the most familiar with the guild "Fairy Tail", so she knew that the wizards of this guild were a group of lawless people, so she was a reckless person.
Kira didn't comment on Natsu's proposal, but continued to look at the others: "Who else wants to play one-on-one, or two-on-two? Just ask! I'm always clear about my leadership!"
Laquette was putting his hands together, muttering something, as if he was praying; Timaria was flirting with the waitress, laughing; Kana and Pacas were drinking, the two drunkards were having a great time; Richard was sitting at his seat with a smile on his face, chatting and laughing with McCara; Breya and Narubdinku had been sitting together since they entered the door, perhaps because they knew that their own guild was not in harmony with the people of Fairy Tail, the two of them did not jump too much, but just kept silent.
"I don't mind."
"You decide."
"You are the captain, you decide."
After hearing Kira's words, several wizards shook their heads repeatedly, their attitudes were very perfunctory, and it seemed that they had no ambition at all.
"Really? Can you guys be serious?"
Kira looked disappointed and pounded the table hard to draw everyone's attention back, "Don't you still want to have a big meal?"
"But... For something like this, can't we just rush in and do nothing?" Kana said drunkenly, holding up her wine glass.
"That's right! No matter how much we discuss here, it's useless. Anyway, when the fight starts tomorrow, those who can win will win, and those who can't win will win anyway!"
Dimalia let go of the waitress's hand and echoed, "Anyway, no matter who my opponent is, I can handle it in an instant!"
You two big-breasted, brainless guys!
" If discussion is really useless, there would be no such thing as deployment of troops in this world!"
In response to Kira's rebuttal, Dimalia just spread her hands indifferently: "That can't be helped. I'm not Inbel, I don't have the brains to come up with plans."
So Kira set his sights on the remaining people one by one...
"Kira, you know us in the Witch's Sin. Jellal and Eric have always been the brains of the guild, and I just follow their orders!"
Forget it, Richard is just a good guy and can't be relied upon.
"Kira, you know us 'Four Hounds'. We love nothing more than going all out. Our only specialties are our loud voices, our ability to drink, and our manliness! WILD FOUR!!!"
Hey, hey, hey... This isn't the only thing! You clearly mentioned three points! - They're all useless skills though...
"Kira, you know our 'Heart of the Dragon'. We are all orphans and have not received any systematic education. We are not familiar with these things..."
That's a half-decent answer...but who isn't an orphan?!
"If we know the opponent's lineup, can we better deal with it?"
Hmm? Finally someone who understands!
Kira looked over when he heard the voice and found that it was Breya who spoke. He nodded silently and thought: As expected of her who came from the Dark Guild, her insidiousness and cunningness are not comparable to those idiots in front of him!
"Tell me more about it?"
"It's still early now. We can send someone to lurk over there and find out their order of battle. In this way, wouldn't it be much easier to choose tomorrow's duel ?"
"That makes sense, but who should we send?"
…
On the other side, in another tavern, Laxus was also having a meeting with the team he had just assembled today.
Unlike the team led by Kira, this team has many smart people, such as Erza, Inbel, Jura, and even Laxus himself is not just a reckless man.
"Four two-on-two games require eight people in total. If we want to cooperate, the teammates need to have enough tacit understanding. So..."
"So the two of us are one of the groups, right?"
The ones who spoke were the twin sisters Siduo and Korai. Anyone with a discerning eye could see that it was a foregone conclusion that these two would team up for a doubles battle.
“That’s right!”
Laxus nodded. "As for the three one-on-one matches, I and Jura-san will play in two of them. This will ensure the maximum chance of winning. For the remaining one, do you have any suggestions?"
Compared to a double team that requires tacit understanding, a single player only needs to be strong enough. In Laxus's opinion, the two strongest people here are himself and Jura, so he directly decided on two single player battles.
As for the candidate for the final single-player battle, if we choose based on strength, we will have to choose one from Inbel, Agil, Erza, and Mira.
However, Laxus only knew that the Twelve Shields were very strong, comparable to the 'Holy Ten' in strength, but he was not sure who was stronger between them and Erza and Mira, so he did not make any rash judgment.
Inbel was the Archon in the Albares Empire and was one of those with a high IQ, so he immediately understood Laxus's idea. He glanced at Agil, then at Erza and Mira, raised his glasses with his hand, and said, "No matter from the perspective of magic or personality, Agil and I are not good at coordinated battles."
"In comparison, the two from 'Fairy Tail' have a tacit understanding far superior to the others present, and their strength is also very strong. If the two of you can form a double battle, your chances of winning should be very high."
"Then let either me or Ajir go out to fight alone. This will maximize our chances of winning."
Years of government affairs have given Inbel a temperament different from others. When he analyzes candidates for battle, he looks like a military strategist commanding a battlefield, and he looks very sophisticated.
"Team up with Mira? It sounds like fun..."
The number of times Erza and Mira were rivals in a year was much greater than the number of times they were teammates. Now that Inbel had proposed this, she began to think about it.
Beside her, Mira also nodded with a smile, obviously having no objection to this decision.
Looking at the reactions of the two, Inbel took advantage of the situation and planned, "In the opposing team, the strength of Captain Kira is unfathomable. I'm not trying to undermine my own prestige, but from the information I have collected so far, it is impossible for any of us to defeat him."
"Then there's Dimaria. Her magic is too special. We don't have a way to restrain the 'Sealing of Time', so we have no chance of winning against her."
"The last one is Lakaide. He is also a very powerful person in our...guild. His strength is even higher than that of Dimaria. Whether it is magic or close combat, he is not comparable to ordinary people. It is not easy to defeat him."
"These three people are the biggest obstacles to our winning the game!"
After Inbel finished speaking, the originally noisy atmosphere suddenly became quiet.
They knew that Kira was strong, and they also knew that Timaria was strong; but before that, they always thought that these two people in the opposing team should be the target of their own Laxus and Jura.
But now a Lacade suddenly appeared and said that his strength was not inferior to Timalia, which undoubtedly reduced the winning rate that they had originally calculated in their minds by dozens of points.
Erza frowned slightly, and the faces of all the members of Kira's team flashed in her mind one by one. After thinking for a moment, she asked: "Rakede... is he the white-haired monk?"
"It's him!"
Inbel nodded, but did not mention that Lacade was also a demon created by Zeref. There were too many people present and it would not be a good thing to say it out loud.
At this moment, Ajir suddenly interrupted the topic and said something funny: "Don't be fooled by Lacade's appearance, his magic is very interesting!"
interesting??
Everyone was stunned: Is this true or false? ?
