The Strongest Team is the 8th episode of the Fairy Tail anime. It first aired on November 30, 2009.

Natsu Dragneel and Erigor finish their fight with Natsu gaining victory. Kageyama decides to continue their plan, but by some unusual circumstances, Lullaby ends up coming to life in its demon form, which Natsu and his comrades end up fighting.

Summary

The flute’s origins are explained, and its powers to kill anyone who hears the sound of it. Also, that the battle deciding its fate is reaching its conclusion.

Erigor'sdefeat

Erigor defeated

Erigor is boasting about the power of his wind and Natsu is left powerless before it. The fight continues until Erigor comes out defeated by Fire Dragon's Sword Horn. In moments, Lucy Heartfilia, Erza Scarlet and Gray Fullbuster arrive. They congratulate Natsu on his victory, but their happiness is cut short when Kageyama steals their car and the flute, heading toward the Guild Master's regular meeting spot. They are left speechless by his act, but soon chase after him.

Kageyama starts to play

Kageyama about to play Lullaby

While near the Meeting Hall, Kageyama contemplates his decision to use the flute. Behind him, Makarov is reading Sorcerer Magazine, and after being caught reading it, tries to talk his way out of the shame. Kageyama doesn’t seem to care and instead makes up a ruse to make Makarov listen to the flute. Moments before he plays, he is reminded of his past accomplices who encourage the plan "Lullaby", but then Lucy’s and Gray’s words of rebuke make him stop. Some distance away, Natsu and the others have arrived, and are ready to attack, but master Bob stops them. He flirts with Natsu and Gray, while Lucy is disappointed that this figure is actually the head of Blue Pegasus. Master Goldmine, who is also there, believes in Makarov to solve the situation.

Lullaby

Lullaby's true form

Makarov takes control. He talks to Kageyama about the weak nature of a human being, about the reason of creating guilds, about the relationships nakamas form together, and the fact that playing that flute will not change anything. Kageyama drops the flute and surrenders. While the group and Makarov reunite, the flute shows its true form, one of a gargantuan wooden demon. It destroys a mountain, makes the army flee and vows to eat every soul, but Natsu, Gray and Erza fight it and defeat it. With this, Lullaby is reverted into the flute form, now eternally broken.

FT running away

Fairy Tail running away

Everyone is amazed at Erza’s, Gray's and Natsu’s strength, and call them “The Strongest Team”. But after the smoke clears, the Guild Meeting Hall is revealed to be destroyed, which changes everyone's opinion about them and making Fairy Tail flee from the scene.
