I don't agree with the last statement.

Before Silver broke up their fight, Natsu was almost absorbed by Franmalth and only saved by Happy, so I'd say putting out more bodies that can disrupt the absorbtion is the way to victory here, not fighting all on his own.

Most likely Franmalth first attacked Taurus and Aries lacked the guts to go into close combat while Taurus was sucked in, or something like that.
