Irene captures and tortures Mirajane until August orders her to regroup with the rest of the Spriggan 12, piercing Mirajane's heart with a beam of magic; Lisanna Strauss later finds Mirajane alive with her wound shrunken by Brandish. Meanwhile, Sorano pretends to be unfamiliar with Yukino out of guilt for her past crimes, but promises to reunite with her once she has atoned. Elsewhere, Dimaria is found by Larcade Dragneel, one of the 12 and Zeref's "secret weapon" against Acnologia. At the hill where Fairy Tail's guildhall is now located, Invel mentally enslaves Mavis with an ice collar that hinders her intellect. Zeref shows her Alvarez's entire military force that has assembled around the guild, including Historias of God Serena, Wall, and Bloodman. Natsu and his friends arrive and fight through Alvarez's army, but are impeded by God Serena's Historia, whose magic is negated by a returning Gildarts Clive.
