Starting in One Piece, I'll Build the Strongest Fairy Tail!

"Let me introduce everyone. These are our guild's new comrades, Nami and Robin."

"And in the future, Luffy, Zoro, Sanji, Usopp, Chopper, and Brook will also become our guildmates."

Eden was loudly introducing the new members he had recruited into the Fairy Tail guild to everyone.

Yes, this was his achievement. It had to be recorded.

"Just stamp the mark right here."

Makarov, a smile on his face, had already produced the guild's stamp from somewhere. Without any nonsense, as if afraid these newcomers would run away...

With lightning speed, one after another, he stamped everyone with the unique mark of the Fairy Tail guild, a pattern resembling a freely soaring fairy.

Yes, due to its reputation, the Fairy Tail guild could hardly recruit any new members in the world of Earth Land. Even if they were lucky enough to get a few, they would be scared away by the Fairy Tail atmosphere.

There was no other way. Before Fairy Tail's infamous reputation spread in this brand-new other world, he'd take anyone he could trick into joining.

"Um, my agreement with Eden was that I would join Fairy Tail after I become the Pirate King."

Luffy stared at the stamp on the back of his hand, cold sweat beading on his forehead.

"Is that so?"

"So you don't want to become a giant, is that right?" Makarov said with a smile.

"I do!!"

Luffy's eyes lit up with a golden glint as he nodded vigorously.

"The secret to becoming a giant is..."

Makarov leaned down and whispered something in Luffy's ear.

"I see."

Luffy nodded forcefully upon hearing it. He said seriously, "As long as I join the Fairy Tail guild and protect my comrades and family from now on! I can become a giant who protects everything."

Yes, Luffy believed this without a doubt, to the point that even after he later awakened Nika, he still thought it was because of Makarov's good teaching back then.

Makarov was indeed skilled at tricking children, and at the same time, he had eyes that could see through people's hearts.

He could see with perfect clarity which people were beyond saving and which could still be saved.

"Luffy, how could you be fooled so easily?"

Zoro said, exasperated, as he looked at Luffy, who had already accepted the reality of joining Fairy Tail.

"I want to become a giant too!"

"Me too..."

Just as Zoro's voice fell, he heard Chopper and Usopp also give in.

"You guys..."

Zoro looked at Chopper and Usopp, falling silent. Considering Usopp had defeated the Ghost Princess Perona, he decided to say a few less words.

"Wherever Miss Nami is, I will be."

"By the way, my beautiful lady, may I ask your name?"

Sanji, with an unlit cigarette soaked by seawater dangling from his mouth, held a bouquet of roses and knelt on one knee before Lucy, asking.

"Lu-Lucy..."

Lucy was stunned for a moment, mistakenly thinking her spring had arrived and someone had finally realized her charm.

"Miss Lucy, you are truly beautiful beyond compare..."

Before Sanji could finish his sentence, his attention was captured by Cana.

Sanji turned, produced another bouquet of roses from nowhere, and knelt on one knee before Cana. "My lady, your beauty is likely unmatched even by the sun and moon. It has touched my heart in an instant. Please, you must tell me your name, won't you?!"

"Get lost!"

Before Cana could speak...

Gildarts, appearing out of nowhere, slapped Sanji into the sky, roaring, "Stay away from my daughter, you damn perverted brat."

"Hahaha."

"Someone finally sees this pervy cook for what he is."

"He totally deserved that."

Seeing this scene, Zoro suddenly felt that joining Fairy Tail might not be so bad after all.

"Hey! You are in a dangerous position right now."

Makarov, holding the stamp, came before Aramaki. His gaze was sharp as he said in a deep voice, "Right now, you're just like Laxus was back then. The slightest misstep, and you'll walk down the wrong path."

"Alright, old man."

"I'll keep a close eye on this guy," Laxus said, immediately turning into a bolt of lightning and appearing beside Aramaki, repeatedly vouching for him.

"What's the use of you watching him?"

"My meaning is, when the time comes, we'll have him go plant trees with old Warrod for a year to properly cultivate his character."

Makarov interrupted Laxus, explaining as he stamped the Fairy Tail mark on Aramaki.

"As for you..."

"Issho, this world is just like this!"

"Although there are many things you don't want to see! But whether it's good or evil, it's all a part of what makes up this world."

"It is because humanity has both good and evil that we can distinguish between beauty and ugliness."

Before stamping Issho, Makarov spoke with a slightly worried expression.

"It is because humanity has both good and evil that we can distinguish between beauty and ugliness?"

"That's right! This world is always contradictory, yet relative."

"Master Makarov, I have truly learned a lesson this time."

Issho bowed deeply to Makarov. As he joined the Fairy Tail guild, he felt sincere admiration for the old man before him.

"No wonder this guild could raise Wendy so well."

At this moment, Issho finally understood who had educated Wendy to be so outstanding.

That's right, the ones who raised Wendy so well were—the Sky Dragon Grandeeney, Lucy's ancestor Anna, and old man Roubaul, who founded the Cait Shelter guild for Wendy alone.

It wasn't until many years after joining Fairy Tail that Issho learned from a casual chat that Wendy had already been fully raised before she joined the guild.

Issho: "A miscalculation!"

Of course.

After getting new members, Makarov didn't forget the old ones.

"So, at present, our guild is still missing Panther Lily, Evergreen, Bickslow, Freed, Elfman, and Lisanna, a total of six people, correct?!"

Makarov scanned the surroundings, taking in the faces of all the Fairy Tail members present, and said in a deep voice.

Failing to gather all the members of a guild was his responsibility as the master.

"Speaking of which, Lucy, since your Celestial Spirits were able to find us to ask for help, shouldn't they also be able to find our scattered comrades?"

At this moment, Eden seemed to have thought of something and asked Lucy.

"That's right!"

With Eden's reminder, everyone present had their eyes light up.

"Please, I'm begging you, don't mention me asking you for help again."

"You guys didn't come to save me, did you? You were purely here to cause trouble..."

Lucy first subconsciously retorted to Eden before continuing, "But, I can indeed ask."

"Open, Gate of the Water Bearer! Aquarius!"

Lucy immediately summoned the gate of the Celestial Spirit Aquarius.

And then...

Smack!

After being summoned, Aquarius, without any extra movements, grabbed Lucy's head with one hand, gave it a 360-degree spin, and threatened viciously, "I believe I told you, didn't I? If you dare lose our keys again, I'll finish you?"

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry."

"I'm truly sorry."

Lucy apologized profusely.

"So, what do you want from me?" Aquarius asked, seeing Lucy's sincere apology.

"Right, Aquarius."

"Since you can travel all over the world to find our Fairy Tail guildmates for help when I'm in danger..."

"Then can you find all of our comrades scattered across the world at once?"

Lucy asked Aquarius her question.

"Can't do it."

Aquarius answered directly.

"Why?"

Lucy asked, confused.

"The Celestial Spirit King forbids it," Aquarius said with a shrug, helpless.

"Huh?"

"That detestable bearded old man, always making these useless, stinking rules."

Lucy was stunned for a moment, then said angrily, "But why? I need a reason."

"There's nothing to be done, Lucy."

"Rules are rules."

"Alright, Lucy! I'm going on a seaside vacation with my boyfriend. If there's nothing else, don't bother us..."

"Remember, it's a boyfriend~"

As Aquarius spoke, her form turned into specks of starlight and slowly dissipated.

"That's so infuriating!"

Lucy said through gritted teeth, watching Aquarius disappear.

"Anyway, it seems like it's not possible."

After all that, Lucy turned to everyone present and said helplessly.

"It seems there's no way now."

"We don't need to worry about Elfman and the Thunder Legion with Freed and the others..."

"But Lisanna's situation is still worrying!" Makarov said with a sigh.

"Lisanna."

The moment Mirajane heard her sister Lisanna's name, her gentle body began to tremble...

She had just found Lisanna, only to run into this kind of situation again. She was such a useless older sister.

It was also at this moment that Mirajane finally made up her mind.

She had to become stronger!

She could no longer hold back the S-Class mages of the Fairy Tail guild.

"It's not like there's no way!"

Just as everyone was at a loss...

An incredibly young voice echoed in everyone's ears.

"You are... the First Master?!"

In an instant, a small, angelic loli, about 1.4 meters tall, wearing a white dress and with bare feet, as cute as a pixie, slowly appeared before everyone.

The moment the girl appeared before the members of the Fairy Tail guild, although she didn't introduce herself...

Everyone just knew that the girl before them was the first master of the Fairy Tail guild—Mavis.

"Originally, I planned to use one of Fairy Tail's Three Great Magics, Fairy Sphere, to protect everyone along with Tenrou Island and get through this crisis."

Mavis paused here, looked at Eden not far away, and then said with a smile, "But it turns out that was unnecessary! Our guild's children are a hundred times more outstanding than I imagined!"

"On this point, Makarov, you've done a great job. The Fairy Tail of today is the perfected version of Fairy Tail that I envisioned."

Mavis praised Makarov without reservation.

Although in terms of magical power, Makarov might not compare to the magical geniuses Mavis and Precht...

But on the level of a guild master, it could be boldly said that even the First and Second Masters combined couldn't compare to Makarov alone.

"First Master."

Makarov couldn't take the praise at all. Hearing the First Master say that, he was moved to the verge of tears.

"Also."

"According to my calculations, it would have taken seven years to completely unseal Fairy Sphere. But because the new members are all too outstanding..."

"Plus, with the rapid progress of Eden, Laxus, and Erza, it only took me half a month to undo the Fairy Sphere~"

Mavis said softly to everyone with a smile on her face.

"Could it be..."

The moment Mavis finished speaking, all the members of the Fairy Tail guild present revealed expressions of shock...

If they weren't mistaken, their world's cutest Master Mavis had probably brought that thing here.

"Voom!"

As an endless light shone from behind Mavis, she smiled and said, "It is that 'could it be'."

"Boom!"

With a deafening roar...

A massive island slowly rose from beneath the sea, lifted by a brilliant magic circle that lit up from below.

The moment Tenrou Island appeared before their eyes, the mages of Fairy Tail, who had been drifting in the world of pirates, finally had a true home.

"Ah..."

"It's huge!"

"I can feel an endless torrent of life force."

Aramaki said, gazing at the great tree before him.

"Don't get any ideas about this tree, or I'll kill you, kid."

"Though I'd like to say that, I no longer have the power."

Just as Aramaki was shocked by the immense life force of the Tenrou Tree, a dark shadow suddenly appeared before everyone, threatening him.

"You are... the Second Master?!"

The moment the black shadow appeared, all the comrades of the Fairy Tail guild, including Makarov, prepared for battle.

"Stop staring, I'm already dead."

Yes, the black shadow was indeed the corrupted second master of the Fairy Tail guild, Precht. He was clad in a black robe, his gaze sweeping over the face of every Fairy Tail member as he said in a deep voice, "My physical body was destroyed by Acnologia's roar! I barely managed to form a remnant soul, lingering in this world under the protection of the Tenrou Tree."

"But the irony is..."

"Even after I've done so many wrong things, unforgivable things?!"

"Does the Tenrou Tree still consider me a member of the Fairy Tail guild?"

As Precht said this, his gaze toward the Tenrou Tree behind him carried a hint of sorrow.

Then, Precht looked at Makarov and the other Fairy Tail members who had defeated him on Tenrou Island...

Finally, Precht's gaze fell upon Aramaki and Issho, the two new members.

"However!"

"Since I am still clinging to life in this world, there are some things that must be done."

"The energy within you two newcomers is powerful, but your way of using it is crude! Let me teach you the true way to use energy~"

Precht said confidently.

Yes, at the Admiral level, take Kuzan and Sakazuki for example, the two could fight for ten days and ten nights without food or drink, and the aftershocks of their battle could even destroy an entire island's ecosystem...

What was most terrifying was that their battle permanently changed the landscape of an area. It made one half of a normal island constantly spew magma, while the other half had snow constantly falling from the sky. If calculated carefully, the energy involved was an astronomical figure.

But their fighting style was very ordinary.

It was still just simply spewing magma or ice.

And Precht was confident that he could quickly teach Issho and Aramaki the correct way to use energy, allowing their strength to increase to a certain extent.

Only then would their Fairy Tail have a hope of gaining two more people who could contend with the mid-to-high-level 'pieces' of the Alvarez Empire.

Only then could they protect Fairy Tail, and protect the world's cutest First Master, Mavis.

As for how to deal with that... child he had abandoned back then?

Precht's brow furrowed into a knot. He still hadn't figured it out. He just wanted to travel back in time and give his past self a huge slap.

"By the way, First Master."

"What was the method you mentioned earlier that could help us find our comrades?!"

The mages of Fairy Tail couldn't be bothered with the Second Master talking to himself and instead asked the little angel, the First Master.

"Hey! Don't ignore me!"

Precht's soul roared, but unfortunately, he was only a remnant soul, not the Black Wizard who was once the closest to the abyss of magic in the entire world.

"With the Tenrou Tree, finding our comrades will be much easier."

"As long as you are thinking of your comrades, your comrades are surely thinking of you too."

As First Master Mavis spoke, a ball of light appeared in her hand, which she then dispersed onto every member of the Fairy Tail guild, saying softly, "Everyone, think hard about the comrade you miss the most in your heart."

"Lisanna, Elfman, Freed..."

First was Mirajane. Although her younger brother and sister were currently wandering outside, her heart was still with the other members of the Fairy Tail guild. They were all guildmates, all family.

"Freed, Evergreen, Bickslow, Lisanna..."

Laxus was naturally the same, his heart was also with all his comrades.

"Panther Lily, Lisanna, Elfman, Freed, Evergreen, Bickslow!"

As for the other members of the Fairy Tail guild, they were naturally the same.

"Voom!"

Under the combined efforts of all the Fairy Tail mages, Mavis's magic finally took effect.

Next, these lights would guide everyone present to the whereabouts of the six remaining comrades of the Fairy Tail guild in this world.

"Voom!"

First, what appeared before everyone's eyes was a deep sea!

At the very bottom of that vast ocean, there seemed to be an island.

This first image flashed before everyone's eyes so quickly that they saw almost nothing. No one knew what the hint from the First Master's magic meant.

"Fish-Man Island!"

Issho and Aramaki spoke at almost the same time.

"Fish-Man Island?!"

Mirajane's brow furrowed in confusion.

"An island located ten thousand meters below the deep sea," Issho explained.

"Understood!"

"The comrade stranded on Fish-Man Island will be left for Eden to find."

Upon hearing that Fish-Man Island was ten thousand meters below the sea, they didn't hesitate and immediately assigned the task to Eden.

"Huh?"

Eden looked helpless.

"Voom!"

Just then, a second image appeared before them. It was a giant beast of unknown size!

A colossal beast that could walk through the sea, its oppressive presence could be felt by everyone even through the magic.

"It's probably... Zunesha."

"A giant life form that has lived for an unknown amount of time, able to walk freely on the sea, rumored to be over fifty thousand meters tall."

"By the way, because it's always moving, no one knows its exact location."

Aramaki shared the legends he knew about Zunesha.

"If it's on the sea, let's have Eden find it!"

After some discussion, the group tossed the task to Eden.

"Huh?"

Eden was dumbfounded.

"Voom!"

Then came the third image.

In the image was a group of women.

"Please let me go for this one!"

As the fleeting image passed...

Gildarts, Eden, Laxus, and even Master Makarov all stood up from their seats, volunteering for the task.

"Master, you're too old to go," Eden said, looking at Makarov.

"Nonsense! I am in the prime of my youth," Makarov said, straightening his back.

"This place is simply perfect for me," Gildarts said with his arms crossed, his face full of seriousness and determination.

"Gildarts..."

Cana immediately put Gildarts in a chokehold.

As for Natsu and Gray, they were too slow to get up and had already lost their right to choose.

"Heh?!"

"You males... I really don't know what to say," Carla sneered, a flash of disdain in her eyes.

"I suddenly feel like I've seen these scenes before."

"A dead memory has revived and is attacking me again."

As for Wendy, she suddenly felt that the scene before her was familiar, as if she had already witnessed the true colors of these guys back on Tenrou Island.

Yes, back then, Wendy, who possessed healing abilities, was utterly defeated in front of Erza, who knew nothing about medicine.
