With Fairy Tail as notoriously wild as ever, the Magic Council expresses its disapproval but is unable to force them to disband. Meanwhile, as Fairy Tail rebuilds, the suggestion that Makarov retires has him considering the possible candidates for his successor: his grandson Laxus, the reclusive Mystogan, and Erza. However, when he hears of the results of Erza and her group's latest mission, he reconsiders retiring.
