Hello once again audience, where we left off, I introduced Naruto of Team Gurren. I also said I will give you all a new Naruto and Fairy Tail crossover. And now I deliver it!

Naruto will not be reincarnated or be sent to the Fairy Tail world. There are too many like that.

Anyway,the Way of the Phoenix is a reference to a Phoenix and how they are immortal: just like conflict. It will never die. I named it like that so it kind of sounds like his own taijutsu style. Yes he will have magic, but he won't use it as often. His magic is… a secret.

Pairing for Naruto as of right now is: Levy McGarden. She is one of my favorite characters.

Summary: All my life, I wanted to grow stronger. Not just for me, but also to defend the ones I hold dear. I trained as hard as I could, not only in my magic, but also in my taijutsu skills. Now I am in a guild that tests my strength, not only as a warrior, but also the strength of my heart. Now, this wouldn't be a problem except for one thing; I'm afraid of girls!

Naruto, The Phoenix

Chapter 1- Family

"Sensei, when will we start training today?" A young spiky blonde haired boy asked an aged male as they were sitting in a dojo. The blonde boy is about eight years old and is wearing a white gi with a matching obi. The boy is around 4'5" and he has coal black eyes and light tanned skin. This is Naruto Tachibana.

"Soon, Naruto." His sensei is a giant of a man he is incredibly muscular man. He has short, spiky black hair, bushy eyebrows. He is only wearing a white gi with the sleeves torn off at the shoulders. This is Kentaro Tachibana.

Most would think that Naruto took after Kentaro's wife, but no. Kentaro found Naruto a year ago when a seven year old was wondering in the woods that surround his dojo. He took him in, but he didn't know what happened to him. Every time he'd ask, Naruto would just mumble about 'momma' and 'sisters'.

"Now!" Kentaro said as the young blonde launched himself at the giant man. Naruto jumped in the air and gave Kentaro a kick. But the giant of a man blocked it with the palm of his hand. Using his given leverage, Naruto leapt off the hand and jumped over his sensei.

Using his smaller frame, Naruto ran under the man's legs and latched himself onto Kentaro's back. "Naruto! Get off!" Kentaro said as he tried to reach the boy. Using this to his advantage, Naruto jumped down and grabbed the arm on his way.

Unfortunately for his large size and weight, Kentaro was sent to the ground. "Yes I did it!" Naruto yelled childishly and he jumped around. "I went easy Naruto. Be glad I didn't use my Ryūha Koei Sōgetsu." Kentaro said as he stood up. What he said made Naruto pale. The Ryūha Koei Sōgetsu is Kentaro's personal fighting style.

Naruto stopped jumping and bowed saying 'sorry' again and again. "It's alright." Kentaro said as he placed a hand on top of Naruto's head. "I'm glad you two stopped. It's time for lunch." A new voice said that is female.

Both males looked to the door to see a beautiful blonde haired woman. Her blonde hair reached her waist and her green eyes looked at the two in happiness. She has a heart shaped face with a noticeable small birthmark of a small heart. She is wearing a sky blue kimono with a sakura pattern. This is Melody Tachibana, or as she like to be called; Mel.

"Hello Mel-san." Naruto said as he bowed to the blonde haired woman. "I told you Naruto-chan, no need to be so formal." Melody said with a small giggle behind her hand. When she first blonde, he was afraid of her for some reason. After a while, he warmed up to the beautiful blonde women.

"Sorry, Mel-chan." Naruto said, still bowing. "Yo, Mel-chan." Kentaro said as he lifted the blonde boy onto his shoulders. "Well, it's time for lunch." Melody said as she walked out of the dojo with the student teacher duo walked behind her.

In the dining room, Melody ate her meal normally while the student teacher duo stuffed their mouths with food. "So Naruto… have you finished what you have been working on?" Kentaro asked as he swallowed his food.

"Uh huh!" Naruto said as he swallowed his rice. "Well after dinner… show me what you completed." Kentaro said as he finished his dinner. "Alright!" Naruto said through a mouth full of rice.

Ten minutes later, Naruto and Kentaro were in a small clearing a few minutes of the dojo. "Alright Naruto, show me what you got." Kentaro said as he stood ten meters from the young blonde. "Ok sensei!" Naruto said as he stood with his hands together and his legs apart. "Way of the Phoenix:"

~Eight years later~

"Swift Beating Wings!" A now sixteen year old Naruto yelled as he rapidly palm thrusted Kentarou. Naruto now stands at 5'8" and his spiky blonde hair is being held back by a black headband. He is wearing a white gi and a black obi. His gi is slightly opened revealing bandage wraps around his chest. On the back of his gi, the kanji for phoenix. His gi has ripped sleeves and his showing his muscular arms. His black eyes hardened and ready to attack.

Kentaro Tachibana hasn't really changed much other than growing a beard. He met his students thrusts. "Jakuyoku no Gyō: Byakkon Seikai" Kentaro said as he matched Naruto's palm replied back by grabbing the larger man's wrists. "Way of the Phoenix: Fleeting Flight!" Naruto yelled as he threw his sensei across the clearing.

Landing on a tree feet first, Kentaro jumped high into the air. "Way of the Phoenix: Soaring Wing Strike!" Naruto yelled as he jumped after his sensei and slammed his fist into Kentaro's chin.

"Way of the Phoenix: Falling Beak Slam!" Naruto yelled as he grabbed his sensei and slammed him into the grass. "Kogaku no Gyō: Gōhō Gadan!" Kentaro yelled as he slammed his hands into the ground.

Then the ground under them began to shake and rupture and collapse as the two jumped up and began to trade blows again.

"Ugh!" Naruto said as he was sent into the ruble as Kentaro landed a few front of his student. "Way of the Phoenix: Heavenly Wing Storm!" Naruto yelled as he spun around on his hands and his legs were like helicopter blades.

He was able to spin fast enough that a tornado formed around him that knocked back a few feet. "Way of the Phoenix: Soaring Talon Strike!" Naruto yelled as he smashed his hands into Kentaro's face and kicked him away.

"Looks like I win, Tou-san!" Naruto said as he had his hand in a spear like fashion as he stood over Kentaro. "Looks like you won this time, Naruto." Kentaro said as he stood up with the help of Naruto.

"Let's go back home, Mel-chan probably has lunch finished." Kentaro said as he and Naruto began to walk back to the dojo.

~X~

"Looks like you two are just in time for lunch." Melody said as she set the table as the two males arrived. "Yup, and it looks like I won." Naruto said with a cheeky smile.

"Don't get ahead of yourself, Naruto-chan." Melody said, getting a groan from Naruto. Lunch was a quiet affair, but you can punch the tension in the air. Everything was silent, until Kentaro stood up.

"Naruto… for nine years, we have been a family to you. In those nine years, you have learned the ways of the Ryūha Koei Sōgetsu, created your own techniques, and been the son we've never had. And so, with a heavy heart, I say, you are ready to begin your journey." Kentaro said with tears in his eyes along with Melody.

A month ago, Naruto asked his adopted parents if he could go on a journey. He said, "I need to find the reason why I fight." Kentaro understood this, being kept in one place isn't going to help him find a reason to fight.

"Tou-san, Kaa-chan, thank you." Naruto said as he brought his adoptive parents into a hug while tearing up. "Now go, get ready to go." Melody said as her adopted son let her go. With a nod, Naruto ran to his bedroom.

Ten minutes later, the family is outside of their home with Naruto carrying a travel backpack. "Looks like this is it. I can still remember the day you first called me Kaa-chan." Melody said as she hugged Naruto to her chest. Said blonde was blushing a new shade of red.

~Author Make: Flashback!~

It has been three years since Kentaro and Melody took in the young Naruto. Right now, Melody and Naruto are walking on a path back to the dojo from a small village just below the mountain where the dojo is.

"So, who is training with Ken-kun, Naruto-chan?" Melody asked as she held a bag in her hands. "I-It's g-going w-well, M-Mel-san." Naruto said as he stayed a foot or two away from Melody.

"Come on Naruto-chan, call me Mel-chan." Melody said with a small giggle, unknowing to her she was a little too close to the edge of the path. "O-Ok, M-Mel-chan." Naruto stuttered out as he fumbled a little with the bag in his hands.

Unfortunately for Melody, she slipped on some loose gravel and slipped. She fell and plummeted to a river below. "K-Kaa-chan!" Naruto yelled as he dropped his bag and jumped after the shocked blonde woman.

Naruto was able to grab onto Melody's waist and stabbed his hand onto the mountain side. His hand acted as an anchor as he and Melody slid down the mountain side.

After what seemed like a gift from god, Naruto grabbed onto a large piece of rock and was able to stop their fall.

"Guah, my hand." Naruto said as he pulled himself and Melody up. "Are you ok, Naruto-chan?" Melody asked as she was slightly scared as she almost plummeted to her death.

"I'm fine." Naruto said as he held his slightly bloody hand. "Naruto, Mel-chan!" Kentaro yelled from up on the path. "Sensei!" Naruto yelled as he looked up.

"Here!" Kentaro yelled as he threw down an end of rope to them. Naruto tied the rope around Melody's waist. "Pull Kaa-chan up!" Naruto said as he didn't notice Melody's shocked look.

After pulling his wife up, Kentaro threw down the end of the rope to his student. Naruto wrapped it around his good hand and tugged the rope, letting his sensei know to pull him up.

When he got up, Melody brought Naruto into a hug. She kept saying "You finally called me Kaa-chan" over and over again.

~Author Make: End Flashback!~

"Naruto… when you find your reason, come back to finish your training." Kentaro said as he hugged his adopted son. "Thank you, Tou-san, Kaa-chan." Naruto said as he broke the hug and began to walk down the path.

"You know, this day, begins our sons time to leave a mark on Earthland. Naruto, The Phoenix." Kentaro said as he sees an outline of a phoenix around Naruto.

Done, I hope you all enjoyed this first chapter. To the ones who didn't know. Kentaro Tachibana is from a manga series called Dragons Rioting. I recommend it to the ones who would read it.

I also hope you all like the Way of the Phoenix. I always liked Phoenix's and their tales.

Anyways, if noone wants to adopt The successor of Zoro, The Next Hoenn Champion, or The Wind Devil, I guess I will just delete them.

I feel like I should let you all PM me on a Naruto and whatever crossover you all would like. So PM me on a crossover you would all want.

This has been Demongod123, and I'll see you all later.
