For those who don't understand the chapter I will explain. Mashima used the bridge theory, but his explanation is bad.

The bridge theory : the Eclipse gate is present all time between X791 and X798, by destroying Eclipse the 7th July X791, Lucy hopes to destroy a part of the bridge which links this two years, and stopping Future Rogue's arrival, because one part of the bridge will be missing, and he will be unable to reach his destination. By doing this, Lucy thinks that all things related to Future Rogue ( the manipulation of Hisui, her opening of Eclipse, the arrival and manipulation of dragons, the destruction of Crocus and the numerous deaths ) will be cancelled as a domino effect.

if you use this theory, you will bne understand how complex this chapter was, Mashima trolled us
