Fairy Tail Chapter 439 Discussion

Was it already mention that Mest was a FT member? I wasn't expecting him to be a double agent for FT and this revelation surprised me, but it seems it didn't surprise anyone else. So, did I miss something?

Well,Erza did make the Gray infiltration plan. But,eh, I think Avatar was going to find eventually that Gray was a mole. As that guy said,Gray had no reasons to worship Zeref,on the contrary. Plus,if Rogue and Minerva attacked his branch,he would be forced to blow his cover. Either that or operation purification was going to force him to destroy the branch he infiltrated,regardless of Natsu and Lucy's involvement or Rogue and Minerva's. Gray could not even find the main branch's location. At least Erza's plan succeeded in stopping operation purification.



Makarov,on the other hand,successfully sent a mole to infiltrate the heart of the council for 10 years. And he got everything he wanted from it. Plus,his mole was so efficient that it stopped the council from doing anything radical. When Lahar planned to inform the council about the events in sirious island,Mest stopped him and stole their lacrima. That prevented the council from using Etherion on it.



Well,Erza is just a placeholder. But yeah,Makarov is truly a great leader.

Mest must come down here often to see Mavis.

Probably because by the time he is back up the stairs he forgets what lumen historic is and probably everything else. That guy has memory issues

Yeah, he "forgets" about it.

If you look up "Earth Land" on the fairy tail wiki you can see the Ishgar map.



I would say it has, Zeref can teleport and Acnologia can fly at amazing speeds as a Dragon. For all we know, they probably spend more time in other continents.



Plus when Gildarts was first introduce, and said that he encountered Acnologia, Natsu was rushing to where Acnologia was last spotted by Gildarts, and Gildarts said "He might be gone, flying around the continent or world" or something like that.



Yeah i remember that, Plus Acnologia did take over the world in one timeline.Darklight0303 said:
Also for those who still think this development is out of left field. Go back and reread the fucking manga. The hints are there

This new development is sort of coming out of nowhere. Don't remember any countries other than Fiore ever get mentioned. Still finding it pretty interesting.



There were other countries mentioned, just not other continents.



Makes more sense for there to be other continents than there being none.



@Trentor, Ishgar is the continent Fiore is a country in Ishgar where there is 500 guilds total.



Yeah basically Fiore and the other named countries/kingdom that are on the Earthland map, that was known as Ishgar. And that was a continent.

I vaguely remember Ishgar getting mentioned but I think it probably has been a while.



Wondering if Zeref's influence has reached other continents or if they have people over there that have been cursed like Zeref has.



I would say...Fairy Tail will F*** them up..but seriously...I start to think that they might need Alliance of the Guilds, just like in Oracion Seis Arc, to get even close the Top people of the Arbaless.



if 1 of the War Gods of the Ishgar says that he is nothing compared to people outside of the continent...and he is one of TOP 4 of Wizard Saints...that should tell you just how freaking strong Arbaless Kingdom is.



and as for Zeref...well he is no going to be part of the Story for while...don't you remember...he and Acnologia are going to fight soon...and destroy half of the world when they do fight.

Interesting. I really hope we get the attempted invasion that was stopped 10 years ago. Maybe we can get some glimpses in FT zero too esp after the reveal last chap.



Anyway, cool knowing about Mest and Makarov.



Ofc the gang will sneak in this time to see what LH is :P It's gonna be relevant to the plot now so they have to know XD



So Natsu's actually a lolicon? Didn't expect his reaction to be like that after seeing a naked Mavis :3



Anyway, finally it's time to see the top 4 of the council in action. Since they'll probably need to protect their continent soon. Plz Mashima do this right. Ur amazing at building up arcs but always fall short :/ This has lots of potential

Maybe Lumen Histoire is some kind of nuke that can destroy a whole continent.

Well seems to me Erza was named guild master as an excuse all of Team Natsu can know about Lumen Historia, Natsu has no problem seeing Lucy naked, but seeing Mavis naked, that is too much, he had the reservation seeing Lisanna naked in the Tartarus, so violating Lucy dignity is okay, any other female no.



It was nice to see more detail on Mest's history, looks like he left Fairy Tail 2 years before Lucy joined and the series began. Does that mean he was in all those childhood flashbacks with his memory erased from everyone. I want to see all those flashbacks with Mest reinserted.



Seeing how Mest slowly began to become more council like by you guessed hating Fairy Tail was interesting, I don't know what did Fairy Tail do to get so hated by the council. Well they are all gone now so it doesn't matter anymore.



So now we have a global conflict great. is Alvarez this evil place or is this conflict is more gray, I am hoping it is more gray type of war like in real life.



Can anyone clarify when Veronica fits into this, that is part of Ishgal, so they would be allies or are they in Alvarez or neutral. Veronica is in the north so I think they are either neutral or part of Ishgal Perhaps Cream will make his manga debut, if his kingdom didn't kick him out. I am hoping we will see Cream again, I know he is a creep and I don't like him, but it would be fun seeing him again.



Now that we are world building, traveling far away, I predict this arc will be when we will see Wally and Shu again.

Gave this chapter a 5/5 because of it´s promise, the one thing Hiro has to do now is not drop the ball.



The continents actually werre mentioned on several occasions and I´d recomment people to read Fairy Tail Zero and Ice trail since they do reference the continents in those stories Gildarts is labelled as the strongest mage in the eastern continent while he fights on the western continent.



Apparently there´s not much of a difference in culture besides that slavery is accepted on the western continent. My asssumption is that besides the fight for Makarov there will be another clash of ideals.



According to the Wiki Zeref was cursed on the western continent.

[b]

Before all the people scream, that´s totally like HxH and dark continent, does seriously no one see the resemblence of Zeref and Hoheneim? After all those revelations it screams Full Metal Alchemist for me. Btw I´m not implying it´s a ripoff. I just say Zerefs story is very similar to Hohenheims.



While it resembles FMA, Zeref and Hohenheim's stories are different. Plus FMA is not the first story to ever have stuff like this (life and death research etc.). Didn't knew that Zeref was cursed on the western continent.
