Qin Xiu and Nazhabi searched for nearly two days in the Devil's Grand Canyon before they found the Dream Grass, and the two of them returned to the union with their tired bodies.

"I swear I'll never do this again," Natsu shouted from the table.

"But there's 200,000 J in pay," Rebi said.

"yes, it doesn't matter if Natsu is paid so much, it's hard work," Marcao said.

"Ashu, come and fight," Natsu suddenly roared.

"I don't think he's tired at all, he's excited," Wakaba continued.

"It's better not to think like a normal person in Natsu's way of acting, or you'll have to complain to death," Gray said on the side.

"Woo, Dreamy Fish......" Harpy's voice came.

"Yo, I'm still sad for that dreamy fish," Mirajan said as she looked at Harpy who was lying limply on the table.

"Ah, it looks delicious," Harpy said.

"Let Natsu catch it for you next time you meet him," Mirajan said.

"Love, that's all it takes," Harpy nodded.

"Mira, Asho?" asked Natsu, jumping onto the bar.

"Ah Xiu, go back and rest, if he says he wants to compare, it will be compared tomorrow morning," Mirazhen said.

"Hehe, that's great, the first time I fought a sorcerer of flames that I couldn't eat, I was on fire," Natsu looked excited.

"Harpy, let's go" Natsu jumped off the bar and ran out of the union.

"Where is he going?" Macao asked, curious.

"Let's go for a big dinner," Wakaba said.

Early the next morning

At the gate of the trade union, a large group of people surrounded, this was the venue for Qin Xiu and Naz to compete.

"Ashu, come on," Natsu said, a thick flame began to burn in his hand.

"Hmm" Qin Xiu nodded and made a defensive gesture.

"I'm here, Fire Dragon's Iron Fist" Natsu roared, his right hand clenched into a fist and hit Qin Xiu with a thick flame.

Qin Xiu looked at Natsu's fist, his body turned to the side, dodged Natsu's fist, and instantly his left hand reached into Natsu's right arm and lifted it up, his right hand swept and hit Natsu's stomach, and his right hand quickly left, with the force of Natsu's rush, he raised his leg and kicked Natsu's stomach, and the two attacks were completed in less than 2 seconds, directly hurting Natsu and falling to the ground.

"Amazing, worthy of the mercenary's physical skills," Marcao shouted.

"It's much stronger than the average mercenary," Wakaba nodded.

"Ah Xiu is afraid that he is the strongest person in the union."

"In terms of pure physical skills, he is indeed the strongest in the union," Makanov nodded.

"Awesome"

"Shhh

"But that's good, it's really a fast attack speed, Ah Xiu, if you use physical skills alone, you can't win me, the roar of the fire dragon" Natsu said and suddenly shouted, and the huge dragon breath blew towards Qin Xiu.

When Qin Xiu saw this, he immediately flashed to the side, and at the same time, emerald green flames began to gather in his hands.

Seeing that the dragon's breath was dodged, Natsu stopped the eruption of the dragon's breath, and another fire dragon's iron fist rushed towards Qin Xiu, and the flames in Qin Xiu's hand also gathered, forming a small emerald green fireball with a diameter of thirty centimeters, and Qin Xiu's hand spread out a small fireball at the same time to hit Natsu's fist.

Two different flames erupted in the hands of the two, both of whom were simultaneously pushed backwards by the blast wave of the explosion.

"The explosion of flames has such a strong impact," Marcao said in surprise.

"Ah, Natsu's flame is the fire dragon's flame attack power, it's certain, but what kind of flame is Ah Xiu's emerald flame, is there also the attack power of the fire dragon's flame?" said Wakaba puzzled.

"Ashu's flame attack power is not high, but special," Makanov said, then pointed to the ground.

"There are still flames burning underground," Marcao looked at Qin Xiu's feet in surprise.

"It's Ah Xiu's, the emerald flame didn't go out immediately after splashing on the ground, but turned into the color of an ordinary flame and continued to burn," Mirazhen said on the side.

"It's attached to the nature. What is the property that makes a flame emerald green?" Makao said, reacting as he responded.

"Just like your purple flame, it doesn't go with the wind and doesn't go out," Wakaba said, looking at Macao.

"Hmm," Macao nodded.

"Fire Dragon's Iron Fist, Flame Elbow" Natsu's shout interrupted the words of several people, only to see Natsu attack Qin Xiu with two consecutive blows, these two blows were very tight Qin Xiu was surrounded by people from the trade union and couldn't retreat, so he had to use his right arm to catch Naz's two attacks, and at the moment of catching the attack, Qin Xiu felt that Natsu's flame was violently burning from his arm, and the emerald green flame at the burning place of his arm began to ignite automatically.

Qin Xiu's left hand quickly punched Natsu in the chest, and then Cui Yan burst out, knocking Natsu back a few steps directly.

"Is this Cui Yan's Iron Fist?" said Natsu, taking a few steps back and touching the pain in his chest.

"Sort of, because you can't condense flames and then come up with this method when you hit your fist, it's not an exaggeration to say that it's Cui Yan's iron fist, because I also came up with it after seeing your moves," Qin Xiu said.

"How can you do this, Makao, why don't you try this," Wakaba said

"Long-winded...... Marcao said dissatisfied.

"I'm going to be serious now, Ashu, I'm already completely burning," Natsu said excitedly with a fierce fire burning in his hand.

"Hmm" Qin Xiu nodded, his eyes also settled, and looked at Natsu.

The two quickly rushed towards each other, and soon exchanged several moves, and Martian Zi was also flying around.

"Twelve Kicks" Qin Xiu immediately lowered his body after dodging Natsu's attack, swept Natsu's feet, and quickly kicked Natsu's stomach at the moment when Natsu fell, kicked twice, and supported himself with one hand and continued to kick Natsu's stomach four times in a row, at this time his body was also fully propped up, and he kicked Natsu's chest twice, at this time Natsu had been kicked by Qin Xiu one meter six from the ground, Qin Xiu immediately turned around and stood up, immediately jumped up again, bent his right foot and pushed Natsu with his knee again, making Natsu pause in the air and continue to let Natsu's body continue to rise a little, Qin Xiu fell to the ground, Natsu fell to the ground as Qin Xiu did not continue to attack。

Natsu, who fell to the ground, hugged his stomach and looked at Qin Xiu, "Why do you keep kicking your stomach?"

"Because the stomach is soft, you won't get too hurt when you kick," Qin Xiu said.

"You almost kicked out breakfast," Natsu said.

"Aren't you all right," Qin Xiu said.

"If you kicked it all out, my breakfast would have been kicked out," Natsu yelled.

"Alright, Natsu, it's good that Ah Xiu didn't kick you in the stomach hard," Gray's voice rang out.

"yes, but being kicked so much and falling down in the stomach is not to cry out that it is uncomfortable, but to care about your breakfast, Natsu, you are really," Harpy's voice continued.

"Ah Xiu's kicks are not hard at all, how can it be uncomfortable," Natsu yelled.

"That, anyway, this is Ah Xiu's physical trick twelve consecutive kicks, it seems that he only attacked Natsu ten times," Rebi's voice continued.

"Lebby, you counted," Gray shouted.

"I was concerned about how I could kick twelve in a row, so I counted them," Rebi said.

"It seems that this is a competition, why did you start complaining," Markao said speechlessly.

"Axiu, I'm hungry after kicking me in the stomach so many times, what should I do now?" Natsu said.

"If you get kicked in the stomach, you'll be hungry," Gray said speechlessly.

Qin Xiu was speechless, except for the first two kicks, the remaining eight kicks were all used to kick Natsu into the air, and the last two kicks did not continue to attack considering that this was just a competition, but he didn't expect it to be like this now, and his mind suddenly moved to look at Natsu, "Then I invite you to eat flames" Then the cuiyan in his hand formed a ball of fire and threw it at Natsu.

Natsu didn't think much before taking a sip into his mouth, and when he did, he realized that he had been fooled.

"It's hot, it's hot, it's hot, Axiu, you're fooling" Natsu fanned his mouth with his hand and ran left and right.

"Soldiers don't get tired of cheating, watch the fist" Qin Xiu shouted, and his fist hit Natsu's stomach.

"Why is it stomach again" Natsu glanced at Qin Xiu and fell to the ground.

Qin Xiu watched Natsu fall and blew into his fist, "In order to alleviate your pain, so this time I exert myself"

"Ashu wins" Makanov, who saw Natsu fall, immediately announced the result.

"Eh, that's the result, Natsu is really it"

"So obviously deceived"

"Who told him not to eat the flame of Asho?"

Everyone started talking, but they were all laughing at Natsu for being stupid.

The competition between Qin Xiu and Natsu was over, and everyone began to disperse, Qin Xiu also entered the trade union, and when Natsu woke up, he was afraid that there would be another fight.

Natsu fell to the ground and fell asleep, so Qin Xiu was very speechless, so he could still fall asleep, but no one cared about him, everyone knew that Natsu was like this, after being knocked unconscious, he didn't call Natsu if he didn't sleep for a while, and Natsu woke up in an hour and started making a lot of noise at Qin Xiu.

"Ah Xiu, you are too much, you are actually cheating" Natsu looked at Qin Xiu and said dissatisfied.

"Didn't I say that soldiers are not tired of cheating," Qin Xiu said after taking a sip of juice.

"That's it, Natsu, you're too stupid," said Harpy, who was sitting next to Qin Xiu, as he ate the fish.

"Less verbose," Natsu shouted.

Qin Xiu wanted to speak and explain, but Makanov's shout made Qin Xiu stop: "Everyone, be quiet, I just received an urgent commission, the Hatfilia Consortium entrusted us to escort a bridge-building division, and the task reward is 1.5 million J."

"So many, just escorting a bridge builder?" Qin Xiu was startled.

"There must have been some danger that paid so much," Gray said.

"It seems that there are some people who are paying attention, but I don't know who it is, so I arranged for a few people to go with me," Makanov said.

"Grandpa, I'm going, let me go alone," Natsu shouted.

"Stupid, didn't you hear how many people were arranged? and didn't you fight Ashu?" Gray looked at Natsu.

"This commission sounds interesting, maybe there will be strong enemies coming, let me take them all down by myself" Natsu jumped to his feet, punching the air as he jumped.

"Maybe you'll fall into some trap and fall asleep," Gray said mercilessly.

"What do you mean by that, Gray, when I'm stupid?" Natsu looked at Gray angrily.

"Yo, I didn't expect your consciousness to be quite high," Gray looked at Natsu with disdain, and laughed at the corner of his mouth.

"Gray, do you want to fight. Natsu roared.

"Come on, whoever is afraid of whom," Gray yelled.

"You two calm me down" Makanov roared angrily, his arm instantly became larger, and he punched Natsu and Gray, causing the two to stop, Qin Xiu looked at the two who fell to the ground, and shook his head speechlessly.

"Everyone, be quiet, the specific situation is that the largest consortium in the kingdom, the Hatfilia family, entrusted us with the matter of the Io Mountains in the eastern part of the kingdom, and escorted the senior bridge-building technicians from Reed City to the Io Mountains, because the bridge-building matter violated the interests of some people, so our task is to protect the bridge-building personnel. Makanov said.

"There are also reliable sources that a union has taken over the task of killing the bridge builders, so those of you who are going to be careful of the personnel who will be on the escort mission next."

"Elusa Shukaletto"

Gray Verbotsta

Kana Arubellona

Naz Doranigel

"Elfman"

"At the same time, Qin Xiu, Lebi, Dolaire, and JET also followed," Makanov said.

"That's a lot of people," Natsu said.

"It does seem dangerous," Gray said.

"You'll leave in the afternoon, and you'll all go back and pack up," Makanov said.

Qin Xiu looked around and found that Elusa and they had walked out of the union, and it seemed that they had lost their luggage, so Qin Xiu also followed, walking in the direction of the house he rented.
