Full Summary
Gray, Lucy (with the help of Gemini), Ichiya, Erza and Wendy are making their preparations to attack the Lacrima. Meanwhile Natsu and Zero are continuing their fight. Zero unleashes his Ultimate Attack; Genesis Zero, which calls forth shadowy beings from a pocket dimension called "Nil". These entities, referred to by Zero as People of the Nil engulf Natsu and trap him in the Nil Dimension from which they hail. But Natsu unleashes the true might of the Dragon Force, literally burning away a stunned Zero's Magic. Natsu then uses one of his Best Moves- "Secret Dragon Slayer Art: Hidden Fire Form: Blazing Phoenix Blade" and smashes Zero upwards, engulfing both of them in Flame. Both of them then crash in to Lacrima No. 01 at the same instant the others destroy their own Lacrima. Thereby finally stopping Nirvana once and for all!
