'Gray and Juvia' is the 499th chapter of Hiro Mashima's 'Fairy Tail' manga.

The battle between Gray and Invel resumes as the former will try to avenge Juvia who is currently in critical condition. Meanwhile, fans believe it will be Erza and Irene's turn to slug it out next.

In the previous chapter, Invel casted a devastating spell on both Juvia and Gray which forced them to battle it out until one is dead. As their battle dragged on, they were able to break the spell binding them, much to Invel's shock. However, the unbinding of the spell did not come without a price as both resorted to forfeiting their life for the other to live. Juvia got the better of Gray as she casted a spell that will protect Gray from such circumstances.

As Invel tries to locate where Brandish took Natsu and Lucy, he was again confronted by Gray, who plans to end him once and for all. Fans over at Manga Sail believe that in "Fairy Tail" chapter 500, Gray will be able to unleash the full extent of the Demon Ice Slayer magic his father passed on to him. Meanwhile, Erza will be confronted by Irene, who is looking for retribution for unknown reasons.

Fans believe that the two scarlet-haired mages are blood relatives which points to Irene originally being a resident of Fiore. Some even suggest that Erza's bloodline is the cause of a massive hysteria a long time ago, which forced the stronger mages of Fiore to take action. Erza was still an infant while Irene was old enough to remember everything that happened.

Irene and Erza went their separate ways, with the former being transported to the Alvarez Empire, while the latter was kept a secret. The events fuelled Irene's grudge to get her revenge to those who wronged their clan, and she is furious with Erza for siding with the enemies. Also, a flashback is expected to unfold and fans are expecting a dramatic ending to their story.

For fans who have yet to read the chapter, it is now available via Reddit. Here is a video recap of the previous chapter.
