Natsu and his friends are eager to get back to their guild, so they rush headlong into the throng of enemies. Will they be able to make it through in "Fairy Tail" Chapter 496?
Looking back into Chapter 495, Natsu, Lucy, Erza, Gray, Juvia, and Happy were up at a hill, observing the Alvarez army below. Erza wanted to come up with a plan before going, but the others said they were ready. When Lucy commented that the First was probably at the Guild, Juvia surmised that Zeref was with her, to which Gray challenged Natsu on who between them would defeat Zeref. This reminded Happy of Zeref's warning: that if he gets killed, Natsu will also die.
The six of them rushed into the enemy lines and started their attack. The soldiers, however, decided to use their numbers to overpower the group. Before this could happen, however, the other members of the guild arrived, including Wendy and Carla, Elfman, Cana, Makarov, and others.
While things seemed to be doing well, dragons suddenly appeared and, with them, God Serena, the man considered to be the strongest wizard in Fiore prior to his decision to join the Alvarez Empire. He attacked with flame, but when Natsu devoured it, he attacked with sea water. The group seemed to be at a big disadvantage until the magic was broken by Gildarts.
What will happen now that Gildarts has arrived? According to Yibada, he tells the others to go ahead and that he will be the one to face the enemy. As they go on their way, the members of Spriggan 12 stop them. In this confrontation, Rogue and Minerva face Wahl and Bradman while Mirajane battles against Jacob. It is said that Elfman and Lisanna, in their fight against Ajeel, will show some of their transformations, and fans might even see their ultimate forms.
Gildarts, the report says, will be victorious in his fight against God Serena, and he will then go against some Spriggan members. Ultimately, he will face off against Acnologia.
Meanwhile, according to fans at Reddit, the group reaches an open road, and looking down it from a hill is Invel. Being a Ice Magic user, it is speculated that he will be facing against Gray.
Fans will have to wait for Chapter 496 of "Fairy Tail" to enjoy the action and magic as the mages try to fight their way back to their guild.
