Fairy Tail 343

So yeah, everyone was super interested in this chapter because Mashima-Sensei was finally retaliated against Oba-Sensei from One Piece ragging on him all the time. On an unrelated note, this chapter is called Treasure-Hunter…

Anyway, it kicks off when the gang arrives at the village which has indeed been frozen over. But then, another twist, the people who live in the village are a little on the big side. Giants to be exact. See! They’re bloody massive!

Well this puts an interesting new spin on it. Gray looks up at one of the giants and remembers Deliora frozen in the ice, which makes him think of Ur and Ultear. 

Natsu then tries to burn the ice away but is unsuccessful. Gray touches the ice and observes that it is a magic he is unfamiliar with, yet it reminds him of someone else’s magic. Oooh, I wonder who that could be? 

However this is where the gang are set upon by these clowns. A gang of treasure hunters from Sylph Labyrinth, which they repeat a couple of times. Anyway, they are after the Eternal Flame. They fight with Fairy Tail verbally over them getting in each other’s way. The treasure hunters are revealed to have liquid Moon Drip with them. Remember, that thing Lyon was using to try and get Deliora out of his cage. 

Meanwhile, this is observed by a weird one eyed bug with bird wings, who turns out to be a spy for this… weird looking guy. 

He’s presumably someone from the new Dark guild enemy type thing. He doesn’t heed his companion’s warning about being wary of Fairy Tail. Apparently Mr Teeth Mask has been living under a rock and has never heard of FT.

However, it’s his friend who we’re interested in… She declares that the Underworld isn’t that bad a place to work in. Mr Teeth Mask calls her ‘newbie’ and tells her to come on. As she is revealed to be none other than… Minerva, who is all ‘Newbie? Pfft, it’s Milady!’ 

So her new guild is called Succubus Eye? Oooooh. Now this could be interesting…
