Fairy Tail 356 reveals who E.N.D. really is, it seems that the 9 Demons Gates from Tartarus have a leader, their name being E.N.D. who seems to be giving out the order. The Mage Council as well as the members of the council have all been annihilated, or it seems as Doranbolt was luckily able to escape, he mad way to Cobra who revealed that the 9 Demon Gates are not humans but in fact all demons from the Book of Zeref. Fairy Tail finds this out, Doranbolt has little patient and wants to get as much information from Cobra as possible.

Fairy Tail 356 as Silver returns to their Tartarus base, mentioning that he doesn’t believe that this is what he calls home. At the Magic Congress, Era. They discuss how Fairy Tail won the Grand Magic tournament, they mention if they should keep hosting the tournament. Gran Doma, the chairman tells everyone that their conversation will be about Tartarus, they mentions that in the past 7 days, many of their friendly guilds have been wiped out.

They are unsure if they should happy or troubled by this. If this was done by them alone, it could be bad in the long run. They mention that Crime Sorciere could have also had a hand in this. They mention that it could be Fairy Tail, however Org mentions that they shouldn’t jump into blaming Fairy Tail. Org also mentions if it could be Tartarus who did this themselves. Org begins to mention that they should just be trying to strengthen their units by taking out the weaklings.

Gran Doma mentions that their enemy still remains unknown, however if they were all to fall apart, bad things would surely follow. At this time they should begin taking their strongest arm and standing with it. Someone walks in telling them that something bad has happened and it’s no time for a meeting. Out of nowhere, Intruders have entered and have begun destroying everything from the inside out. Going as far as to destroy the whole building in a large explosion.

Doranbolt wakes up to notice that Lahar and the others have died! Most of the council members have died, Org seems to still be alive when a man shows up, he is like a large cat with a tail, he mentions that all the senate members must die and thus he begins his hands to explode. Org tells Doranbolt to escape, he mentions that he cannot, however Org mentions that if he doesn’t they’ll lose everything.

This monster introduces himself as the Jackal in which he’s one of the Nine Demon Gates, he mentions for them to remember his name in hell as the man who massacred the entire senate. Org shouts at Doranbolt to live on and carry out his own sense of justice, he dies. At Fairy Tail, they’re all having fun and drinking alcohol. Erza reports to Makarov about Minerva. It’s mentions that Sting is not the master of Sabertooth, they should tell Sting and the council.

Juvia has created bread in which she calls it Gray-bread in which Gray thinks that he walked into a trap. Elfman quickly  digs in and begins eating them. Juvia begins to cry because Elfman had the first bite. Gray mentions that because she went through all this trouble to make them, he’s going to try them, to which he doesn’t seem to like it. Levy begins reading something in which it involves E.N.D., she mentions that it’s on another level compared to Deliora and Lullaby, they begin to speculate different things about demons and such.

Natsu mentions that he’s ready to bust up Tartarus, Gajeel is also ready to kick some ass. Lucy mentions that they don’t enough to know to just go knocking on their door. They don’t even know the type of people they have. It could also lead to where Igneel and the other dragons are. They receive news and quickly know that something is going on.

The Council has been ruined, to which some seem to still be alive, while Doranbolt has gone down somewhere and reached Cobra there. Cobra mentions that he knew that he’d show up soon enough. Cobra mentions that he hasn’t heard anything except all the explosions. Doranbolt mentions for him to tell him everything about Tartaros.

Cobra quickly mentions that he demands the release of all six of them. Doranbolt mentions that he doesn’t have the authority when Cobra asks for him to talk to the higher-ups. Doranbolt mentions that the higher-ups are all dead. Cobra is shocked and says that they really did go all out. Doranbolt appears behind him and mentions that he’s impatient and wants him to tell him everything he knows. Cobra mentions that he’s not going to tell him anything except for one thing.

We see Kyouka appear behind Silver, Kyouka mentions that she’s surprised that he showed up in his Human form. Another member mentions that Jackal and Tempesta are out on missions when Kyouka mentions that the operations have already begun. When they all get together to now show the humans the power of the underworld, in which the the hell brought forth by the Nine Demon Gates will be shown. Cobra reveals that none of them are humans, they’re all demons from the book of Zeref, and their Master is E.N.D., the strongest Demon out of Zeref’s Library of Works! Fairy Tail 356 ends here.

What an intense chapter, everything is going so quickly and Fairy Tail seem to be very weak compared to how the Nine Members of Tartarus are. It seems like they’re nothing but ants who are going to get crushed. However it’s going to be great to see and learn more about where the dragons and such are at this point. We’ll have to see what happens in next week’s Fairy Tail 357, titled “The Nine Demon Gates”.
