Natsu is going to make light work of Bluenote, as he should. IIRC he was only able to keep Gildarts down because of the effects of the Tenroujima tree being destroyed by Azuma..(I think that was his name was) And when the tree was restored by Ultear, the effects wore off and Gildarts just completley destroyed this guy. So people shouldn't be too surprised if Natsu takes care of this guy in a chapter or two. That should be expected of him at this point.
No, it still shouldn't make sense. Bluenote is literally the 2nd in command in Grimmoire Heart. Regardless of his power comparison with Gildarts (the most OP wizard in FT aside from Zeref), at the very least he should still be stronger than the Seven Kin of Purgatory. Natsu got literally owned by Zancrow and would have lost if Makarov didn't intervene. Bluenote should also be stronger than Azuma who fought on par with Erza (who is much stronger than Natsu) and wouldn't have lost if not for Erza's nakama power.
It's safe to assume that Natsu would have lost if he had encountered Bluenote in Tenrou. It's ridiculous to say that Natsu should be able to catch up to Bluenote with just 1-2 years of training considering Bluenote himself has had 8-9 years time (during which Natsu slept on Tenrou) to get himself stronger. Even if we consider their training time to be the same, Natsu shouldn't be able to catch up to Bluenote yet unless he got some crazy fast power up since the difference between Natsu and Bluenote was already huge to begin with.
Who am I kidding though, villains rarely got stronger in shounen. Bluenote probably spent the last 8-9 years drinking booze, smoking, and totally not training at all.
Forgetting one teeny miny detail there. NATSU IS END! His growth would be anything but normal.
