Chapter 122

Solitary Thunder is the one hundred and twenty-second chapter of Hiro Mashima's Fairy Tail.

Full Summary
Erza summons her blades asking them to lend her their power. Meanwhile in the Cathedral, Laxus and Natsu continue their battle. Laxus thinks about the Thunder Palace and why his grandfather does not resign already. Natsu taunts Laxus and they both attack once more. Erza is trying to summon more blades but her magic is already greatly depleted. Suddenly, Warren uses his telepathy powers to explain to the other guild members about the Thunder Palace and that the girls have been saved. However, their harmony is cut short by the bickering of the guild members. Everyone is mad about their previous battles, winners and losers alike. Gray scolds them and tells them to take out the things in the sky but Erza explains that it has Body Link magic. But the guild members decided to attack even if it means risking their lives.

With Erza taking out 200 Lacrima crystals, and the others taking out the rest, the Thunder Palace is no more. The Body Link Magic hits and everyone is incapacitated. The civilians however, think that this is a show put on by the guild, so all is good. Laxus witnesses this and becomes furious. All his plans have failed, and Natsu lectures him on the fact that he cannot be master of a guild when he never even tried to be a part of it. This makes him snap, and he yells that he will become Master by force.
