People are fucking throwing around "Nakama" power lately when it isn't even happening. It makes those fans look dumb as shit. Hell it hasn't even really happened since the Erza Vs. Kyoka battle, and most of the other Tartaros fights were not like that.
You can't use Avatar arc as an example of nakama power either, since it was just to show off how strong Team Natsu had become after the timeskip and didn't involve anyone getting their ass kicked and then proceeding to one shot someone.
Right now it's clear all the members of Team Natsu (Team A) are stronger and have reserves of power they haven't had to dip into yet, but of course as soon as they do and manage to win a single fight in this arc, people will call out "NAKAMA POWER" like the idiots they are.
Not really as Nakama power, because Nakama power is only necessary vs OP enemies.
The beef everyone has with this Arc is the god oneshote .
Ib4 people keep bitching how this wasn´t a god and whatnot
YOU DO NOT DO THAT!
This panel is such a betrayel for manga and the arts, everything about it is wrong a deliberate missguide. If this was Jojo´s it would have written "MENACING" all over. This panel had the sole purpose of missguiding the audience in thinking that thing is "something" just to oneshot it.
This has nothing to do with Nakama power ups, people are just retarded and can´t phrase themselves, it´s just terrible writing, it´s the purposeful betrayel of expectations.Because of how manacing the war god appeared, he seemed like he was a powerful opponent. However, Natsu oneshotting it was not terrible writing. That panel wanted to make people think it was "something" because that would make the achievement of Natsu oneshotting it have more impact. Sure, he oneshot Bluenote, someone who he couldn't stand up to at all during the Tenrou arc. However, I honestly think him oneshotting Bluenote was that noteworthy because I believe Natsu was either on par, or stronger than Bluenote after the timeskip.
If you want to make an achievement look big, you make the obstacle for the achievement look like it's difficult. Then, when you get past the obstacle, it seems like it's a big achievement. In this case, the obstacle was fighting that menacing war god. It was made to look so menacing to make Natsu oneshotting it look like a bigger achievement.
Again, it's not terrible writing, it's a writing technique to make something seem bigger than it would otherwise. If Hiro made the war god seem less menacing, then Natsu oneshotting it would not showcase his new-found strength.

#2 - Natsu's upcoming Dragonize Transformation
Before anyone says that it's only a movie thing, hear me out. We know that if a Dragon Slayer uses their magic excessively, they can end up turning into a dragon themselves. It's not exactly stated to what extent, but it still poses a problem for them. The solution to stop that however, was revealed by Igneel after he emerged from within Natsu's bodies, and stated that they had been staying dormant within their bodies to act as antibodies to halt the process of Dragonification.
With Igneel now gone though, there's nothing stopping Natsu from turning into a Dragon. Logically, I can assume that it would take some time for the effects of the antibodies to wear off, but we've had a year time-skip so maybe it's worn off. This evidence for this theory is concrete and is backed up by Achnologia being able to return to a human despite excessively using his own Dragon Slayer Magic in the past.
Read the chapters again (specifically ch. 413).
Igneel stated that they wanted to stop the process of turning into dragons completely, wishing for Natsu and the others not to become like Acnologia. The effect is permanent. No antibodies being worn of.
Your theory would make all the effort they put into this task pointless. Like really, really pointless. Especially if such an effect would wore off after not even a single(!!) year.
Regarding your theory's backup:
1. Acnologia was the first slayer turning into a dragon. We don't know anything about the dragonification itself, other that it can be stopped and is triggered by using slayer-magic to much. If it is possible to turn into a dragon it can be possible to turn back into a human to.
2. Acnologia is over 400 years old. If such a possibility like in 1 exists, he would have had enough time to figure it out, granting him the power to switch between his two forms at will. Anyway... he would have had the time to find a way to look like human again.
After the theory with END, this is like the second theory where I have the urge to do a facepalm... (Sorry for these harsh words, but these are my true feelings)

lucy shitting orihime, nami and sakura....
Lucy>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>nami>orihime>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>sakura<<<<<<<<ahahahahahahahahLol Orihime? She's hopeless in fights. The only thing she's good at is patching them up.
hahahahaha I love this!!
Lucy this chapter reminded me of the Arrow card from CCS. I think Lucy's initial power was suppose to come from cards and not keys which gave her these dresses but that idea had already been done so Hiro had to change it.

What a wast of laxus i was hoping his entrance to be powerfuly epic or emotional
Now i am jsut dissapointed.
And how the hell did they even find them.
Exactly. If he wanted Laxus and Co to show up he should have had them hide in Alvarez keeping an eye on Gramps for the opportunity to intervene in case he was in danger. They were more suited for the stealth mission than Team A after all. Not wasting away with the morons at blue Pegasus.
Heck even having Zeref call Azir off would have been better than this crap since then questions would start rising as to why Zeref is so damn obsessed with Natsu that he'd:
A: kill Makarov and send Natsu his body
B: Let Natsu go so as to give him more despair once he gets home when Alvarez invades in force.
Seriously I was expecting something like this I guess. Laxus shows up at just the right moment to save their asses and then Gajeel explains how he found him an about the B team but I was expecting a more badass fight. Vs hades five on one team Natsu didn't do half as much damage as Laxus (Natsu Lightning flame dragon mode after doesn't count cuz that was cuz of laxus) and Laxus probably could have beat him or at least fought him long and hard enough for team exceed to destroy the heart like Natsu did. Now I'm pissed like in tarturous but worse cuz even then laxus got a full fight that at least show cased his power. Here he just zaps and leaves and the whole time team B(adass) just had fan service.

I rather not have them fight, since it seems too soon for a fight. Also they're on the enemy territory and they have more man power. Regarding the ship, it maybe can camouflage itself? Would seem 'cheap' but it's better than being there and not getting noticed by the empire.
Gotta wonder how tho since none of the blue Pegasus people showed any ability to camouflage. I doubt Mashima thought things through that thoroughly sadly. He made this plothole for himself when he decided to put the Raijinshu with Blue Pegassus for the lols and fanservice instead of having them hiding out in Alvarez keeping an eye on Makarov.
Team B did intend to go after Laxus, to find him. He usually explains this kinda stuff, it'll probably be something simple.

On an unrelated note Gray transformation looks baddass I wonder if you can make other tattoos or shapes with his whatever that's called. I also want to see natsu increased strength cuz we haven't really seen him go all out yet. AND FOR FUCKS SAKE WHERE IS THAT BADASS LAXUS AT THIS POINT IT SEEMS LIKE THE BADASS B TEAM IS JUST FAN SERVICE IN THIS ARC AND IM STARTING TO GET PISSED, THEY BETTER AT LEAST PUT GULDARTS IN A BADASS FIGHT THIS ARC TK MAKE IT UP.

No matter what the answer is, it doesn't change the fact that a title is a title and some old guy who was around for 3~ chapters being able to summon an "Actual God" is the dumbest thing ever.
First I didn´t ask you, second since you´re eager to answer, answer the question.
Doesn't matter who you asked. Plus like i said the answer is still irrelevant. but, a story is told with both pictures and words. Now what?
Still doesn't change the fact that:
A) Some old guy who was around for 3 chapters being able to summon a real god is borderline insanity.
B) The only people who should be disappointed are the ones who don't think point A is true.
C) Natsu one-shot it.
