Later, as Lucy regains her consciousness, she witnesses Natsu tied to a chair right in front of her, unconscious. Tied up and unable to use her [[Magic]] herself, Lucy is a target of Dimaria's hatred for what happened to Brandish, intending to torture Lucy before killing her.

For the anime-only fight that takes place during the Daphne arc, see Natsu Dragneel vs. Gray Fullbuster (Daphne arc).

Natsu Dragneel vs. Gray Fullbuster is a fight fought between the Fairy Tail Mages Natsu Dragneel and Gray Fullbuster.

Prologue

Angered Gray approaches Invel

Gray intending to crush Invel

The war rages on, and Natsu, Gray, Lucy, Juvia and Happy continue fighting the enemy soldiers. Natsu's flames are, however, suddenly frozen as Invel makes his appearance.[1] With everyone frozen solid but Gray, a fight between him and Invel ensues, with the former showcasing his Ice Devil Slayer Magic, much to the Spriggan's surprise. That is when Natsu and others break free from Invel's ice. Although, before anything can happen, Brandish appears in form of a giant, and takes everyone but Gray and Juvia away. Invel uses this to his advantage, and binds the two together with Ice Lock, forcing them to kill each other.[2] Eventually, Juvia is thought to die from giving her blood to Gray in order to save him, subsequently enraging Gray to chase after Invel.[3] After brutally beating him, though, he learns that E.N.D. is none other than his friend, Natsu.[4]

Meanwhile, Lucy attempts to reason with Brandish, but to no avail, as she enlarges Natsu's tumor back and then proceeds to fight Lucy. This is stopped by Dimaria, who appears to call out Brandish on faking the fight and takes her down for being a traitor. She then moves to Lucy, blaming her for this turn of events.[5]

E.N.D. encounters Gray

Later, as Lucy regains her consciousness, she witnesses Natsu tied to a chair right in front of her, unconscious. Tied up and unable to use her Magic herself, Lucy is a target of Dimaria's hatred for what happened to Brandish, intending to torture Lucy before killing her. After a series of time-stops, which appear rather as teleportation to Lucy, she threatens both Natsu and Lucy, until she returns to the latter, preparing to gauge Lucy's eyes out. This causes Lucy to lose her consciousness yet again. Waking up shortly afterwards, Lucy finds herself on the ground, covered by blood. Looking around herself, she witnesses a scene of destruction, with its focal point being a shocked and beaten up Dimaria crashed into a wall. The culprit is revealed to be Natsu, as Dimaria mumbles about a monster that is capable of ignoring her ability: E.N.D. It is revealed by Porlyusica that the tumor is not what they thought to be, and Brandish enlarging it yet again caused something to awaken within Natsu. In the meantime, Natsu is seen rampaging near the repositioned guild building. As he searches for Zeref, he burns any and all enemies that stand in his way, until it is Gray who bars his way.[6]

Upon seeing Gray, all Natsu does is asking him to let him go, with Zeref being the only thing he's thinking about. Gray attempts to talk to him, wanting to confirm if Natsu really is E.N.D. However, Natsu talks about nothing but killing Zeref. Disappointed, Gray takes this as a confirmation of Invel's words, beginning to imagine how his greatest rival is also his greatest enemy, responsible for all the darkness in his life. Reassuring Natsu that this is the end, Gray activates his Devil Slayer Magic, promising to kill him here and now.[7]
