Beating Naked Mummy

Su Tan led Wendy and Carla deeper into the endless sea of trees. The vast expanse of the forest was overwhelming, and Su Tan knew he would have to search carefully, bit by bit. As they wandered, he took the opportunity to chat with Wendy.

"Brother Su Tan, you're so strong!" Wendy exclaimed, her eyes sparkling with admiration. She had witnessed Su Tan's immense power earlier when he single-handedly scared off Oracion Seis. To her, he seemed invincible.

Su Tan chuckled softly. "Wendy, your healing magic is just as impressive." He had requested that Wendy call him "brother," finding it endearing to be addressed so affectionately by someone as sweet and innocent as her.

Suddenly, Carla's sharp voice interrupted their conversation. "What's that?" she gasped, pointing ahead.

Wendy's eyes widened in shock. "The trees… they're black!"

Before them stood a cluster of trees, their bark as dark as night. Unlike the vibrant green foliage surrounding them, these trees appeared lifeless, as if drained of all vitality.

Before they could investigate further, two voices echoed from the shadows.

"You said it was influenced by 'Nirvana,' Brother Zato."

"Aha! Such terrifying magic has killed the earth, Gato."

"Who's there?!" Wendy cried, her voice trembling as she instinctively stepped closer to Su Tan.

From the trees and bushes around them, a large group of figures emerged, surrounding the trio. Wendy's heart raced as she realized they were vastly outnumbered.

"There are so many of them!" she whispered, her fear palpable.

Carla's body trembled. "I thought the enemy was just those six from Oracion Seis. Why are there so many?"

The two voices from earlier stepped forward, revealing their monkey-like appearances. They were almost indistinguishable from actual primates.

"You're surrounded!" one of them, Zato, declared with a sneer. "We're the Naked Mummy, under Oracion Seis. We've been ordered to hunt you down. Fairy Tail, huh? Last time we crossed paths with that brute Laxus, we took a beating. This time, we'll get our revenge!"

Su Tan's lips curled into a faint smile. "You've arrived just in time. Tell me, where are the rest of Oracion Seis?"

Zato scoffed. "Do you really think we'd tell you?"

"No problem," Su Tan replied calmly. "I'm sure you'll change your mind."

"You dare underestimate us?" Zato barked. "You'll regret messing with the Naked Mummy!"

As Su Tan and Wendy faced off against their attackers, the other teams from the Fairy Tail guild found themselves embroiled in battles of their own.

"Woooooo!!" Natsu roared, leaping high into the air and slamming into a crowd of enemies.

"Boom—!!"

"Ughhhhhh!"

"ICEMAKE – Lancers!" Gray shouted, summoning a barrage of ice javelins that rained down on their foes.

"Wow ah ah ah!" The enemies screamed as they were knocked to the ground.

"I'm here! Here!" Happy fluttered around, dodging attacks and taunting the enemies.

"Transformation: Sky Wheel Armor!" Erza's voice rang out as she summoned her armor. "Sword of Heavenly Wheel Dazzling!" A flurry of magical swords shot toward the dark guild members.

"Wow ah ah ah!" The enemies cried out in pain.

"Open! Taurus Gate! Taurus!" Lucy summoned her Celestial Spirit, who charged into battle with a roar.

"Alas—!! Lucy's body will be guarded by me!" Taurus declared, swinging his axe with devastating force.

Though Lucy wasn't the most powerful mage in Fairy Tail, her skills were nothing to scoff at. She held her own against the dark guild's grunts, proving her worth as a second-tier magician.

Meanwhile, the members of Blue Pegasus and Snake Scales clashed with their own adversaries.

"Kill them!!" Zato's voice rang out, snapping Su Tan's attention back to the immediate threat.

"Kill!!" The Naked Mummy members surged forward, their numbers overwhelming.

Carla's face paled. "Hey! There are too many of them! We should retreat!" She glanced at Wendy, her concern evident. Even if Su Tan was strong, taking on an entire guild was no small feat, and she feared for their safety.

"Retreat? That's too much trouble," Su Tan said, his voice calm but laced with confidence.

"Om—!!"

An invisible wave of tyrannical energy erupted from Su Tan, crackling through the air. The trees around them splintered and cracked under the pressure.

The charging enemies froze in their tracks, their eyes wide with terror. Then, one by one, they collapsed to the ground, unconscious. Some even foamed at the mouth.

"What… what just happened?!" Wendy stammered, her voice trembling.

Carla stared in disbelief. She had been ready to flee, but now their enemies lay defeated before them.

Su Tan's mastery of Conqueror's Haki was well-known within Fairy Tail. He was the guild's secret weapon in large-scale battles, capable of incapacitating entire groups with a single burst of his overwhelming aura.

"You… what did you do?!" Zato shouted, his voice shaking with fear.

"Hmm? You're still standing? Not bad," Su Tan said, his tone almost casual. "Now, tell me where Oracion Seis is."

"I'd never tell you!" Zato spat, though his bravado was clearly wavering.

"Om—!!"

Another wave of Conqueror's Haki surged forth, this time more concentrated. Zato was sent flying, crashing into a tree with a sickening thud.

"How about now?" Su Tan asked, his voice cold.

"I won't talk! Never!" Zato insisted, though his resolve was crumbling.

"Om—!!"

Zato was hurled into the air once more, his body slamming into the ground with a bone-rattling impact.

"Speak, or I'll end this," Su Tan said, his patience wearing thin.

Zato's defiance faltered. "I… I won't—"

Before he could finish, Su Tan raised his hand. A blade of Conqueror's Haki materialized above his palm, radiating an oppressive energy. The ground trembled, and cracks spread through the trees as the pressure intensified.

"Boom—!!"

The blade descended, shattering the tree behind Zato before it even made contact. The sheer force of the attack was enough to instill absolute terror in Zato's heart.

"I'll talk! I'll talk!!" he screamed, his voice breaking.

Su Tan lowered his hand, the blade dissipating into the air. "Good choice."
