Curious about the whole "who is E.N.D" question even more now. A demon Igneel was unable to defeat......or couldn't bring himself to defeat. With the way Zeref phrased the quote "who will be the one to face me again, E.N.D or you (Natsu)" has me thinking that the reason why E.N.D wants face activated is because he wants to take out his master and rule supreme. It would make sense since if his power is above Igneel, he wouldn't need face to take over the country or the world since his power alone would get the job done. In order for him to face his master, he needs face activated to have an even playing field since Zerefs power is just too damn awesome and probably makes E.N.D look like nothing.
