Chapter 239

Frozen Spirit is the two hundred and thirty-ninth chapter of Hiro Mashima's Fairy Tail.

Full Summary
Gray decides to use Iced Shell to defeat Hades. He remembers that it is a magic that takes the life of the user but states that he is prepared for it. However when Ultear thanks him for it, he claims that he's not doing it for her or for Ur but for the Fairy Tail Guild.

Back at camp, Natsu, Lucy, Wendy and the cats see the defeated Gajeel, Mirajane, Evergreen, Elfman as well as the defeated enemy Rustyrose. Wendy tries to use her magic to heal her friends but the cats advise her to rest for a while since she has already used up a lot of her magic. Freed and Bickslow review the situation while Pantherlily tells them that the Grimoire Heart Battleship is located to the east. Levy suggests splitting into an attack team and a defense team to take them on.

Elsewhere, Ultear meets with Meredy, who acknowledges the body of Zeref. Ultear tell her that they will leave the island but Meredy protests, saying that she hasn't found Gray yet. Ultear reveals that she told Gray that Hades killed her father and that Ur infiltrated the guild for revenge and learned Iced Shell since no other magic seemed to be able to defeat Hades. Ultear also told Gray that despite being Ur's daughter, she was unable to learn the spell, which she says is the only one which can beat Hades. Ultear also told Gray that she intents to leave the island and seal Zeref so that Hades can't find him.

Back to the present, Ultear tells Meredy that Gray is not their enemy, but their trump card. Ultear begins to laugh at Gray for believing her made up story and also states that if everything goes right, she can get rid of both Hades and Gray, allowing herself to claim Zeref. When Ultear turns to leave, she sees Juvia's unconscious body and decides to kill her but her strike is blocked by Gray who states that he never believed Ultear's story.

Gray tells Ultear that whatever Ur's will is, he has his own will and so he will never use Iced Shell since he wants to live with his comrades. The two do battle and Ultear states that Gray is no match for her since she's the head of the Seven Kin of Purgatory. However, Gray uses his magic to knock her down.
