This chapter opens with a flashback to the beginning of the previous chapter, in which Nemo explains that he is going to fight a dragon, which is forbidden by the Guild. Nemo says that he will stop the fight, but that it might be a good idea to cut him loose so that he doesn't have to use the force again. The flashback then shifts to the present, where Nemo is talking to himself. He feels like his body is being "melted" by the force of the dragon's roar. He asks himself what he should eat first, and the answer is that he should cough. He then asks himself if he has gotten stronger. He says he thought he had, but he was wrong, because he had Natsu san and others around him to help him. He is afraid that he has become weak on his own, so he will probably only use the power once.
