Natsu, along with Lucy, assists Happy in his quest to find a fish that is famous for being a rare delicacy, also proceeding to tease the Celestial Spirit Mage for tagging along despite complaining at first. When he finds the appropriate fishing spot near a cliff, Natsu encourages Happy, although the Exceed easily gives up. Eventually, the Mages catch a number of fish, which Natsu doesn't even try, since according to Lucy and Happy they taste terrible.
