Fairy Tail: I Can Analyze Everything Chapter 72 72: One-Punch Lucy

Along with Lucy's roar, a staggering amount of golden magic power suddenly erupted from her body.

The entire room was instantly filled with dazzling golden light.

Beside her, Taurus felt a violent resonance from the depths of his soul; it was a fusion based on the deep bond between a Celestial Spirit Wizard and their Celestial Spirit.

"Ohhh! Since it is Miss Lucy's request..."

"To protect this perfect body..."

"I am willing to give my all!!!"

"Moo—!!!"

Amidst the roar, Taurus's body began to decompose, turning into a sky full of brilliant stardust with a 'bang'.

"Taurus: Final Form - Celestial Spirit armor!!!"

Countless golden streams of light, like rivers flowing into the sea, instantly rged into Lucy's body.

When the light dissipated.

The originally sowhat revealing denim bikini had disappeared.

In its place was a set of extrely gorgeous golden battle armor covering her entire body!

The shoulder pads were shaped like mighty bull horns, an ancient star chart representing Taurus was engraved on the chest, a golden battle skirt fluttered under the surging magic power, and a golden cape made of pure energy trailed behind her!

At this mont, Lucy was no longer that weak Celestial Spirit Wizard.

She was a Valkyrie clad in golden Celestial Spirit armor, an Arbiter from the Zodiac!

"Whew..."

Lucy slowly raised her hands, looking at her fists covered in golden gauntlets, feeling the power surging through her body like a tsunami.

She clenched her fists tightly.

Crack!

The crisp sound of air being crushed rang out.

'Is this... my own power?'

A surge of unprecedented confidence welled up in Lucy's heart.

This feeling made her feel that she was finally no longer a burden who could only hide behind everyone, but had truly caught up to their footsteps.

In mid-air.

Fukuro, who was about to take a bite of Natsu, stiffly turned his head.

His owl face was now filled with terror and shock.

"Th-This... how is this possible?!"

Fukuro's voice cracked, and his eyes nearly popped out.

"A re Celestial Spirit Wizard... how could they have this level of magic power?!"

"Nothing is impossible."

Lucy slowly raised her head.

At this mont, her eyes seed to be burning with two golden suns.

She stomped her foot.

Boom!

A deep pit instantly exploded in the ground, with spiderweb-like cracks spreading wildly.

The next instant—

Swish!

Lucy had already appeared in front of Fukuro.

Fast!

So fast that even her afterimage still remained in place, not having ti to dissipate.

"You just said... you were going to eat Natsu?"

Lucy's voice was as cold as ice, but her fist ignited with brilliant golden light.

"Don't look down on us Fairy Tail Wizards!!!"

No fancy techniques.

No dazzling magic circles.

Only a simple, unadorned punch carrying pure power capable of crushing mountains!

Bam—!!!

The dull sound of flesh impacting flesh echoed through the tower.

A terrifying fist print instantly dented Fukuro's abdon, his eyeballs bulged, and he was sent flying as if hit head-on by a high-speed truck!

"Pfft—!!!"

Blood sprayed wildly, drawing an arc in the air.

"Guaaaaaah!!!"

Accompanied by a shrill scream, Fukuro turned into a backward-flying teor, crashing straight through the outer wall of the Tower of Heaven!

A one-hit instant kill!!!

Rumble—

Outside the large hole, a wild wind whistled in.

Lucy remained suspended in mid-air in her punching posture, her golden cape dancing wildly in the wind.

She withdrew her fist, gave it a light blow, and then wrinkled her nose smugly.

"Humph! I told you, when this young lady gets angry... even I'm afraid of myself!"

...

Sowhere inside the tower.

Ron, who was drawing a magic circle, paused slightly.

He looked up in the direction where the power had just erupted, a aningful smirk curling at the corners of his mouth.

"Ho, that commotion... looks like she used it."

"A pity I'm not on the scene; I really wanted to see Lucy's expression when she shouted that line with my own eyes."

"That must have been very soci... very exciting, right?"

Ron couldn't help but recall the scene during the special training.

In the Magnolia Forest.

"Um... Ron, do I really have to add this sentence?"

Lucy's face was bright red, so embarrassed her toes were curling.

"'Burn, my Cosmo' or whatever... it feels so chuunibyou, so embarrassing!"

"Of course!"

Ron crossed his arms, a hint of mischief flashing in his heterochromatic eyes, though his expression remained solemn.

"Lucy, you must understand, magic is a power of the heart."

"This incantation isn't just sothing to shout randomly."

"It is the bridge of communication between you and the Celestial Spirits, the fuse that ignites the power of the soul!"

Ron was talking nonsense with a straight face.

"Only by shouting with such montum can you make the Celestial Spirit feel your determination in an instant, thereby achieving a perfect possession-style fusion!"

"B-But why 'Cosmo'?" Lucy was still struggling. "Shouldn't it be 'magic power' or 'bonds'?"

"Oh, such details aren't important!"

Ron waved his hand, wearing a "you're too young" expression.

"What matters is the feeling! The montum! Understand?"

"In short... if you want to beco strong, go crazy first!"

Saying this, Ron's expression turned serious as he cautioned.

"However, although this move is powerful, the side effects are also obvious."

"Right now, you can only support one strike. After one strike, you will fall into a state of extre weakness, and at that ti, you'll be at the rcy of others."

"So, unless it's absolutely necessary, never use it lightly."

"This is... a life-risking trump card."

"...That big scamr Ron... the incantation is embarrassing, but this power... is truly undeniable."

Just as this thought flashed through Lucy's mind.

The Celestial Spirit armor on her body instantly dissipated, changing back to her original attire.

"Eh?"

Lucy was stunned, and then a strong sense of weakness swept through her entire body.

What's worse... she was still in mid-air!

"W-Wait!!"

Lucy looked down in terror.

"H-Help, ahhhhh!!"

The feeling of weightlessness hit her instantly, and she fell straight down like a kite with a broken string.

"Aye! Lucy!"

Happy tried to fly up in a panic to catch her.

The next second.

A dark shadow swept through the air.

Snap.

The expected pain did not co.

Lucy felt herself fall into a warm and solid embrace.

She opened her eyes in confusion.

What t her eyes was that familiar face.

"I saw it just now, Lucy."

Natsu caught Lucy steadily and grinned.

"That punch... was really amazing!"

"I didn't expect you to have beco so strong now!"

Hearing this, Lucy's originally pale cheeks turned slightly red.

She turned her head away, snorted, and forced her chin up.

"O-Of course! I am a Wizard of Fairy Tail!"

...

anwhile.

On the path leading to the top of the tower, petals were falling in profusion.

Even though it was inside a closed high tower, eerie cherry blossom petals were drifting down.

Da, da, da.

The crisp sound of wooden clogs echoed in the empty corridor, each step seeming to tread on one's heartstrings.

A woman wearing a loose white kimono with a slightly open collar and a black collar around her neck blocked Erza's path.

She had cherry-blossom-colored long hair, a faint smile on her lips, and held a red long sword horizontally in her hand.

"Hello."

Ikaruga bowed slightly, her voice soft and lodious.

"This one is nad Ikaruga; I have been waiting here for a long ti."

"Please guide !"

Erza stopped abruptly, her whole body tensed, instinctively sensing danger.

"Ikaruga, is it?"

A long sword suddenly appeared in Erza's hand, her gaze sharp:

"I have no quarrel with you. Get out of the way!!"

"This one is no re unrelated passerby."

Ikaruga chuckled behind her hand, but a cold, sharp glint flashed in her eyes.

Shiing—!

As soon as she spoke, the blade light arrived.

Erza didn't even see the other's movent of drawing the blade before the armor on her body instantly shattered.

"So fast!"

Erza's pupils constricted.

"Hehehe..."

Ikaruga chuckled behind her hand.

"If you wish to see Lord Jellal, you must defeat this one first!"
