The guilds' strongest wizards continue attacking the dragons to no effect. Despite killing their dragon guardians at their behest once before, Sting and Rogue realize that they have no experience of killing other dragons. Meanwhile, Future Rogue tells Natsu that he plans to use the seven dragons against Acnologia and become the new Dragon King. Realizing only Dragon Slayer magic can harm the dragons, the Fire Dragon Slayer calls out to the Dragon Slayers in the city to fight against them. At Jellal's request, Doranbalt releases the Dragon Slayer Cobra from detainment to even out the numbers between dragons and Dragon Slayers.
