Synopsis
At the guild, Lucy is seen fixing Wendy's hair. After they are done, they compliment the peace, and how it is not going to last. Soon, Natsu comes along, sweeping, until suddenly he stops and screams at a sleeping Happy to help him.

They continue to bicker until Gray shows up and tells them to stop. Natsu says it's Happy's fault, but Happy goes to Carla, and chats with her. Max arrives with Warren, Vijeeter and Nab, and challenges Natsu. He is overpowering Natsu until Natsu uses Lightning Flame Dragon's Roar. It misses Max, but cuts a few stands of his hair, which makes Max surrender. Natsu asks the others if they want to fight, to which they all no, and he laughs but faints from exhaustion.

Wendy compliments Max, and Carla points out that they could have defeated Twilight Ogre. They said that the problem was not in the power, it was in the money. Later, Gray starts discussing about their magic power ability. Happy asks whether there is a way to boost their power. Natsu, Gray, Lucy, Happy, Wendy and Carla decide to go to Porlyusica for some help. Porlyusica shoos them away even though they plead for her help. Back at the guild, Makarov tells everyone that he is retiring and Gildarts will be the successor, but Mira hands him a letter. In the letter, Gildarts says he does not want to be the master, and the only two orders he will give are, for Laxus to return to the guild, and that Makarov would be the 6th master. Mira, then, gives Cana another letter, which contains a 'call Gildarts' card. She tears the card, saying she does not need it. Makarov says that he would be the master until he dies and calls out for booze.

Back at the forest, they are tired of running and start complaining about her. They notice that Wendy is crying and ask what is wrong. Wendy says that she felt a familiar feeling when she was with Porlyusica, like the one she felt when she was with Grandeeney, which shocks all of them. At the Guild, Max complains about Gildarts' words for the guild to be first place, though Erza says it is not bad to be ambitious. Then, they start talking about the other guilds who are strong and about how the Tenrou team's power froze during the time skip. Romeo gives an idea to Erza about how they can be number one quickly but the others say they should not join 'it'.

In the forest, they start discussing about Porlyusica and Grandeeney to which Lucy gives a good reason for Porlyusica not being Grandeeney. Suddenly, Porlyusica arrives and explains that she is not Grandeeney and that she does not know the location of the dragons. She tells them that she is the Edolas counterpart of Grandeeney. Natsu asks if the other dragons have their human counterparts in Earthland. Porlyusica says she does not know but she did talk to Grandeeney. She hands Wendy a book of spells written as Grandeeney directed and Wendy thanks her.

Back at the guild, Macao and Romeo are having an argument about joining 'it'. The group came back from the forest and ask why are they fighting. They vote who does not want to participate and all the guild members, except the Tenrou team and Romeo, vote for not going. Natsu asks to explain what 'it' is, and Romeo replies that it is an organization made to choose the no. 1 guild in Fiore called Grand Magic Games. Makarov is not sure about it, but when Romeo says that there is a reward for the winner, he quickly approves. As the Grand Magic Games are in three months time, Natsu says it is enough to train. So the Tenrou team is excited for it to start while the others think that it is a bad idea.
