Black Clover: The Son of Fire Dragon Igneel
Chapter 707: SFDI - 707
Chapter 707: SFDI: Chapter 707
Drake felt terrifyingly strong at the moment... Normally, he wouldn’t have such an inflated thought, but at this moment, Drake truly possessed an invincible confidence.
The source of this confidence was his completely transformed magic power.
A month had passed since Fairy Tail’s disturbance on Egghead and disruption of the Buster Call. As expected, the World Government had not leaked the Egghead incident to the outside world.
However, major figures across the seas had noticed that CP agents had been excessively active lately, even to the point of madness.
The CP agents were, of course, searching for the missing Vegapunk and Fairy Tail. The Five Elders had issued a strict order, but in the past month, they hadn’t found even a shadow of them.
Since the activation of the Buster Call was also beyond Drake’s expectations, he had no plan for how to settle Vegapunk after leaving Egghead.
However, at worst, he could take Vegapunk to another world. The Five Elders wouldn’t be powerful enough to pursue him into another world.
But this proposal was rejected by Vegapunk himself.
Drake had initially thought Vegapunk would be interested in the knowledge of other worlds, but Vegapunk himself preferred to fulfill his dream within the One Piece world.
Finally, through Kuma’s introduction, Drake and Vegapunk contacted Monkey D. Dragon, the leader of the Revolutionary Army, and headed to his base on the White Earth Island of Baltigo.
Baltigo was a special island, its magnetic field unrecordable by Log Poses, requiring only Vivre Cards for navigation.
Due to its secrecy, Dragon used it as the Revolutionary Army’s base.
In the original story, because Koala and her group brought Burgess of the Blackbeard Pirates back with them upon returning from Dressrosa, Baltigo was subsequently destroyed by the Blackbeard Pirates.
However, the Blackbeard Pirates had long been wiped out by Drake, so Baltigo was still being managed by the Revolutionary Army.
Dragon welcomed them. To Drake’s surprise, Dragon’s attitude towards him was almost as welcoming as it was towards Vegapunk.
The Revolutionary Army needed strength to achieve its goal of overthrowing the World Government.
To bridge the power gap with the World Government, which had dominated the world for eight hundred years, Vegapunk was their only hope.
Dragon indeed showed corresponding respect and sincerity towards Vegapunk, but he showed the same towards Drake.
The reason was the two questions Drake had asked Sabo at the Gran Tesoro. Sabo had relayed them to Dragon.
Through those two questions, Dragon perceived that Drake had a clearer understanding of revolution than he, the leader of the Revolutionary Army.
"Compared to strength, ideology is also an important weapon!"
This was what Dragon said to Drake, and having such a thought was enough for Drake to give him a second look.
Therefore, while Vegapunk began his research as agreed, Drake also had many exchanges with Dragon.
There was still a lot of Beli left from the Gran Tesoro, so Vegapunk’s research funding was immediately secured.
As for research equipment, honestly, there was no one on the seas who could provide Vegapunk with the required instruments. The equipment on Egghead was all self-made by Vegapunk.
With ample funding and materials, all Vegapunk needed was time.
It had to be said that Vegapunk’s technological prowess was truly astonishing. In just one month, he had managed to analyze another world’s power system across different domains.
Of course, Vegapunk analyzed magic from an energy perspective. The core of magic lies in its "against one’s will" aspect, which Vegapunk admitted he could do nothing about.
However, even with the current results, Vegapunk had developed a method to enhance magic using the Mother Flame.
According to Vegapunk, the Mother Flame was an eternally burning flame he created by simulating the sun.
During its creation, he also utilized a considerable amount of restored ancient technology.
Drake didn’t read the dictionary-like research report Vegapunk gave him. He only knew that Vegapunk had created an instrument that allowed one to absorb the energy of the Mother Flame.
However, the absorption efficiency varied from person to person. For Drake, Natsu, and Vine, as Fire Dragon Slayers, the improvement was significant. Gray, the Ice Mage, however, could not accept the enhancement at all.
After bidding farewell to Vegapunk, Dragon, and the others, Drake first found the Whitebeard Pirates and sent Naruto Uzumaki back to the Naruto world.
Then, he brought a group of people back to the world of Fairy Tail.
However, as soon as he returned to the guild, a surprise appeared before Drake’s eyes.
A child, acting mature beyond his years, appeared before him, looking at him with a gratified gaze.
That magic power and aura... there was no mistake. During the time Drake and everyone else were traveling to other worlds, the Rebirth Cradle had completed the regeneration of Igneel’s body.
Igneel, the King of Dragons who raised Drake and Natsu... had successfully revived!
Natsu, who had been crying upon their reunion, became arrogant after a few words and started playing pranks on Igneel, who had reverted to a child’s form. He only became obedient after Drake punched him on the head.
After some playful banter, everyone calmed down.
Erza and the others recounted their experiences in other worlds to Mirajane and Laxus, while Drake had a long-overdue chat with Igneel.
Igneel, having reverted to a child’s body, was denied alcohol. He looked at his own small hands and sighed.
He glanced at Drake and said, "Your magic power... have you met Ignia?"
Drake nodded and said, "My ’brother’ has a temper quite unlike you, his father!"
Igneel said seriously, "Dragons have no concept of family; relationships between kin are extremely indifferent. Therefore, I don’t understand this son who shares my blood."
Drake put down his wine cup and asked, "Did something happen?"
Igneel replied, "When I first revived, Ignia communicated with me through our magical connection.
He told me he was going to hold a true Dragon King Festival and invited me to witness it at the City of Fire God. I don’t know what he intends to do, but it’s definitely something significant."
Drake couldn’t help but frown. It seemed that Acnologia’s defeat had also stirred Ignia. However, the "true Dragon King Festival" didn’t sound like a good thing.
Drake was more concerned about the City of Fire God. The last time he went to Gildarts to find Ignia, he met him amidst volcanoes.
If there truly was a City of Fire God, and it was Ignia’s base, then that previous meeting wasn’t Drake seeking him out, but Ignia arranging a meeting with Drake.
Drake rubbed his chin. It seemed he really had to meet this "brother" after all. There were some things he needed to discuss with him properly!
In their last battle, Drake had used magic tools to achieve his goal and escape. Now, Drake was fully confident he could fight him on equal footing with sheer strength.
