The MPF gauge crackled and then erupted in a blinding flash—revealing the final, impossible number:
9,964
Stadium and screens shook under the titanic explosion. Milliaanna, Natsu, Gray—all stared, mouths agape.
"Uncle… do you have to go that far?!" Gray whispered.
Orga's eyes narrowed. More than double my power…
Lahal of the Magic Council staggered. Outside mages can truly rival—no, surpass—our fiercest champions.
On Day 1, Jura's strength was doubted—defeated by the mysterious Su Yan. Today, the true might of the Ten Wizard Saints was laid bare. And beyond even that… only someone like Gildarts could match.
Master Makarov murmured, "Jura's only in his forties—and he's sidelined us all. Behind Su Yan, Erza, Mira… Gildarts truly stands alone."
