That's your reasoning? You can't be serious. Do I honestly have to remind you who it is we are referring to? Makarov isn't Natsu, Lucy, or even Erza. He's a seasoned Mage that has been alive a long, long time. So he lost seven years... and? Did you think seven years of being frozen in time would negate the power he had already amassed.
