Thank you everyone for the reviews, this story has been on my mind for a while and I'm glad people like it. To answer some of your questions-

Krazyfanfiction1: I plan to; also I will be adding others that seem like he would learn.

Zero: This story is currently five months before Lucy meets Natsu.

Narutomaniac: Thank you for the advice. As for Naruto's abilities he will have all his jutsu plus some, EMS but only Kamui and Tsukuyomi. No sage chakra or Rinnegan, sorry but those would pretty much make him a god and I feel that ruins stories.

People have asked about parings, I will have one but not sure who yet. It's down to either Cana or Mirajane. With that on to the chapter!

Side note: If anyone would like to Beta or knows someone who would please PM me.

Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto or Fairy Tail.

Naruto let out a groan and stretched his body as he slowly gained consciousness, he realized his internal clock was still working and it was morning. Makarov and Mirajane had both come back periodically yesterday afternoon both to have him fill out some forms and to talk. He learned some more basic things about Earthland to help him get by, in turn Naruto gave them both a little bit more information about himself. Makarov asked more about the villages and shinobi life where as Mirajane tried to get more about him, though she was careful not to seem to nosey. Naruto got up from the bed and did some light stretching, his body didn't feel sore anymore and his chakra reserves were back to full, or as full as they got without Kurama's influence. While he knew his own chakra levels were extremely high for a Shinobi, he thought he was close to two Kages, it was nothing like what he was used to.

"I should keep the Shadow clone spamming down." He thought to himself as continued his routine. "Other than that I should be fine, the question is how much should I start off showing?"

He thought about all the skills he had and what would be easiest to explain without to many problems as he got dressed. His clothes had been cleaned and didn't seem to have any cuts on them so he was thankful for that, he only had a few replacements. Naruto sealed up the chest guard but kept his arm guards, Makarov said the armor wouldn't seem out of place but he never like the chest guard much. The man paused as he looked at his jacket, Makarov had mentioned no one knew what they said and worried about telling people. Sage he could easily explain but the Hokage part made him pause; he didn't know how people would react to him being a former village leader. Sighing he tossed the jacket on before looking at the last accessory, his headband. After a few seconds of thought he sealed it away with his armor, deciding to get a new one for his new allegiance to the guild. He then turned to walk out of the infirmary and into the smell of food cooking, following it he entered the Guild Hall and saw it was empty.

"Hello?" Naruto said loudly.

"Oh good morning Naruto-kun." The shinobi turned to see Mirajane walking out from a door behind the bar. "You're up early."

"Always been an early riser." Naruto said with a grin, his early morning habit really only started during the Great War nut he didn't need to mention that. "You're up early yourself."

"While most Guild Members don't wake up early I like to be ready with food for whoever shows up." Mirajane said with a smile as she wiped the bar clean. "Would you like anything?"

"You don't happen to make ramen do you?" Naruto asked with hope in his voice.

"Of course." She said with a happy chirp. "An odd request for breakfast though, what kind?"

"Miso please." Naruto said as he appeared at the bar, his leg bouncing as he waited. He could smell the ingredients as Mirajane put them in and his mouth began to water. When Mirajane came back she chuckled at Naruto's face and placed the ramen down. Slowly Naruto took his chopsticks and had a small bite of the food, Mirajane watched as Naruto seemed to taste the food like it was a fine wine.

"This is….." Naruto started. "DELICOUS!" Mirajane's eyes went wide as Naruto seemed to inhale the rest of his food. "Seven more bowls please."

"That's a lot but if you're sure." Mirajane said as she disappeared back into the kitchen. Naruto took the time to look around the hall, it was large with multiple tables setup around it. Looking up he saw a balcony with what looked bookshelves and he assumed it was a library. "Here we go." Naruto turned back around as Mirajane brought out two bowels. "That should hold you while I get the rest."

Twenty minutes later and Naruto let out a loud burp while he patted his stomach. "That was great; I haven't had ramen that good in a while."

"I'm glad you like it." Mirajane said as she cleared the bowls. "Oh before I forget." She rushed back in to the kitchen to drop the bowls in the sink before coming back to the bar and reaching under it. "We have to get you a Guild tattoo." Naruto cocked an eyebrow as she placed a stamp on the bar.

"Tattoo?" Naruto asked.

"Everyone who belongs to a guild gets a tattoo of the Guild their in." Mirajane said as she raised the stamp. "This uses magic to apply the tattoo and I can place it anywhere in any color."

"To prove you in the guild." Naruto said as he digested her words. "Cool, well where does a majority of everyone get it?" Naruto asked so he could try to fit in better.

"No one really gets them in the same spot." Mirajane said with a shrug. "I for instance have mine on my left thigh, my brother has his on his neck." Naruto hummed in thought, he wasn't sure if it would interfere with the seals on his body so he needed to move it somewhere he had none.

"Right-side of my chest in orange please." Naruto said as pulled his right arm out of his jacket and pulled his shirt up. After a second Naruto realized Mirajane was staring at his scar. "Just to the left of that." She shook her head and smiled.

"Right, sorry." Mirajane said as she put the stamp on him, Naruto watched as an orange light came out from under it. When she removed it Naruto saw the Guild mark on him. "Welcome to the Guild."

"Thanks Mirajane-chan." Naruto said as he put his close back on.

"Call me Mira-chan, everyone does." She said. "And if you want to leave your shirt off I'm sure the other females wouldn't mind." Naruto chuckled at her as she went back into the kitchen.

"Only for you Mira-chan." Naruto had seen the girl was a bit of a flirt and he found it amusing. "Ero-Sennin would have liked to meet her." He thought before turning back to the Guild hall. "Mira-chan is it alright if I go up to the library?"

"Library?" Mira said as he head came out from the door. Naruto pointed up to the balcony and she when she followed his finger she realized what he meant. "Actually that's the S-Class area, only S-Class mages can go up there."

"Oh well then I guess I'll wait." Naruto said a little disappointed. "Well is there anywhere I can go get some exercise?"

"Sorry but we don't have a training ground." Mira said with a frown. "But the area outside of town is okay to go train in; the mayor lets us practice there so the town doesn't get damaged."

"Okay well I guess I'll head out and get some training in." Naruto said as he stood. "I want to make sure everything is working right before my spars."

"Okay, I'll let Master know." Mirajane said, Naruto gave her a wave and headed out the main doors.

Once he closed them he looked around but didn't see many people so he turned to the Guild building and jumped on the side. Using chakra he ran up the side of it and smirked as he mentally checked of one skill. Making it to the top he unsealed one of his Hiraishin tri-kunai, once he felt it in his palm he channeled chakra into his arm and threw it. Watching it fly towards the edge of town Naruto focused on the weapon, feeling the familiar signal he flashed to it and then threw it again in midair. Repeating this action he made his way out of the town and into a nice open clearing.

"Alright chakra flow seems fine, body storage seals work and Hiraishin is a go." Naruto said to himself. "Let's go through the elements." Naruto held his arm out and focused his chakra.

"Futon: Wind Blade" Wind formed around Naruto's arm as he brought it down in front of him, the wind flew from his arm and slashed the ground. "Wind check." He then did a single seal and took a deep breath. "Katon: Fireball" As he exhaled a fireball, the size of a basketball, shot out from his mouth and set the grass aflame. Another quick seal and Naruto took another breath. "Suiton: Water Bullet" This time when he exhaled a water ball the size of his chest flew from him and dowsed the flames. Nodding Naruto took a breath and went through five seals. "Doton: Earth Style Wall" A large stalagmite shot out of the ground and Naruto inspected it before nodding in satisfaction. "That's the size I wanted and shape seems right, last one." Naruto turned and walked towards the tree line, stopping a few feet from a tree and took hold of his right hand. Focusing he started to gather chakra into it.

"Chidori" His fist became incased in lightning and the area filled with the sound of birds chirping, Naruto turned and rushed towards the tree. He stabbed the trunk as he arrived and his arm easily broke the thick wood, a crack raced up and down the tree from where his attack landed. Releasing the technique Naruto pulled his hand free and looked at the damage.

"Those are all good to go." He said before turning to another tree and held his arm out again. "Now for the advanced stuff." Focusing his chakra it started to take the form of a ball in his hand.

"Rasengan" The spinning ball formed in his open palm and Naruto turned to the tree nearest him, on contact the trunk exploded. Stepping back he observed the damage and grinned. "Hell yea." Nodding Naruto then thought about what other things he needed to try. "Let's see, I don't want to waste too much chakra so Rasengan variations can wait, oh duh." Naruto turned to his right as a clone popped into existence. "Phew, that's good."

"Ya, you would have had to change a lot of your style if you couldn't make us." The clone said.

"Hey I don't fight with clones as much anymore." Naruto said with a pout.

"Ya, especially after we tried to all use Hiraishin at the same time." The clone said, sending a shiver down both their spines as they remembered the day.

"Well I'm sure the memory transfer works but go to that tree and cut a number into it to be sure." The original said as he pointed to a tree, the clone nodded and walked behind the tree. Naruto waited for a second before the memory came to him, nodding he walked around the tree he saw number and sighed. "Good, now I can learn about this place faster. Now…" Naruto took a breath and closed his eyes; pushing chakra into them he opened them. What he saw surprised him, the very air seemed saturated with energy. "Well the Sharingan works." Naruto said as he looked around the area in fascination. "So magic exists in the air, how do mage's collect it for use then?" Naruto let out a sigh and added that to a list of questions he had. "Well I know Senjutsu works so I think I can say I'm one hundred percent." He smiled and sealed his jacket before creating a quick clone. "Let's do a quick spar to loosen up before heading back." The clone nodded and both Naruto's dropped into a fighting stance.

"Morning Mira-chan." Makarov said as he took his normal place on the bar.

"Morning Master." Mirajane said as she filled a beer tankard. "Before I forget Naruto-kun woke up already and went out to get some training in. I believe he's trying all his what was it, oh yea, Jutsu's out before you run him through the gauntlet."

"Good, good." Makarov said as he accepted the beer. "I should probably decide who he's going to go up against."

"Well he did say he was S-Class but maybe Natsu first." Mirajane said as she looked around the room. "You know he'll want to fight."

"True, true." Makarov said as he took a sip of his drink. "And if he beats Natsu that will deter most of the others. Would you like to give it a shot?" Mirajane stopped her scanning and looked down at Makarov.

"No I don't think I would be a good choice." Makarov sighed, even though she hadn't been on many missions she was still S-Class.

"Very well." Makarov said as he focused on his beer. Mirajane gave a sad smile before returning to her duties. "Hmm, all the other S-Classes are out on missions so I guess I'll need to add something extra to this." Makarov looked around the room at everyone present. "Natsu would be good for a starting fight with no rules." Makarov turned and extended his arm behind the bar to grab a pen and paper. "Now I'll need to see how he deals with a handicap." Looking around Makarov spotted Gray, once again looking for his clothes. "Perhaps if I limit Naruto to a certain amount of Jutsu? Makarov nodded his head and wrote the idea down. "That will work but I need to talk to him about some of his skills first." Makarov nodded as he looked around the hall. "Now I should test his physical skills as well, Elfman would take that challenge and he stronger than almost everyone without magic." Makarov thought with a nod, he put the paper down and finished his beer. "Mira-chan can I have a refill." He whined, causing the white haired girl to laugh and nod as she took his glass to refill it.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Naruto walked back into the Guild calmly after his small training exercise, looking around he realized no one even noticed his entrance so he walked towards the bar. As he approached he spotted Makarov and moved over to an open stool next to him.

"Morning old man." Naruto said, making Makarov chock on his beer.

"Dammit." Makarov said as he caught his breath and cleaned the beer from his moustache. "Sneaky brat."

"I walked in the front door and straight to you." Naruto deadpanned. "How is that sneaking?"

"Look around you." Naruto did as instructed. "No one is quiet around here." Naruto chuckled.

"I'll keep that in mind." Naruto said as he leaned against the bar.

"Mira-chan said you were training." Makarov said as he studied the shinobi. "How did it go?"

"I didn't try my more powerful jutsu but I have plenty of options." Naruto said with a grin.

"Wonderful." Makarov said with a sigh. "Let me guess the powerful ones are destructive." Naruto grinned but didn't respond, making Makarov hang his head down in defeat. "Just perfect."

"Worrying will give you more wrinkles." Naruto said as he watched the guild members fight, Makarov glared at him over his beer tankard.

"I'll give you wrinkles." Makarov replied, causing Naruto to chuckle. "Now about the spar, I believe you know we usually give a test for our S-Class candidates."

"Mira-chan mentioned it." Naruto said with a nod before he sat up and turned to the bar.

"Good, now I don't know about your home but here there's more to being an S-Class then strength." Makarov waited for a response but only got a nod. "Well I've turned this exercise into a test of sorts."

"I see." Naruto said, he was actually glad about this. It would not only make him. "So each fight will have restrictions or something to make it challenging for me."

"Exactly." Makarov said with a grin. "Now normally I wouldn't give you a heads up but one part of the test will require you to use only a certain number of techniques. I'm telling you because I know nothing of your skills."

"When you say techniques would that mean jutsu's or all techniques?" Naruto asked as he thought over the information.

"Well I would say jutsu but I'm curious as to why you ask." Makarov said as he sat down his tankard. "Perhaps we should go to my office and talk some."

"Good idea." Naruto said as he stood, Makarov hopped off the bar and lead Naruto to his office on the far side of the hall.

Walking in Naruto looked around the large room; bookshelves lined the back wall and two comfortable blue chairs sat in front of them. Makarov had a large dark wooden desk against the opposite wall, papers stacked in piles on it, and a gold Fairy Tail symbol was carved in it. Naruto grabbed one of the chairs and moved it closer to the desk as Makarov moved some of his paperwork so he could sit on the desk.

"So what is the problem?" Makarov asked as Naruto got comfortable.

"Well in my world there is a difference in jutsu and techniques." Naruto began. "For instance I can use my chakra to walk up walls, trees and on water."

"Really?" Makarov said slightly slack jawed. "And it's not a jutsu?"

"No, it's a skill taught not only for practical use but also to help with chakra control and increase chakra levels." Naruto said. "As such I'm curious as to where that would fall."

"I see." Makarov said as he rubbed his chin in thought, after a few minutes Makarov made a decision. "I think we can exclude that and skills like it. If magic could be used that way I'm sure everyone would learn how to."

"Maybe you could." Naruto said with a shrug. "Tell me how exactly can you use magic? What makes you different from someone who can't?"

"Magic Power is the energy which allows Mages to employ Magic, and it is composed of Eternano, that is what we call the particles of Magic in the atmosphere. Every Mage has a container inside their body that determines the limits of their Magic Power." Naruto thought over the information Makarov gave him for a second.

"So does this container have veins that move through your body or is it like an organ?" Naruto asked.

"Organ." Makarov said simply. "Chakra, I take it, is different?"

"Yes it travels all over the body through a system similar to the nerves system or blood veins." Naruto informed him as he held up his hand as started gathering chakra into it. "I can then channel it out like this all over my body." He then reached forward and placed it on a piece of paper, lifting it off the desk without gripping it. "And use it to stick to things."

"Fascinating." Makarov said as he watched with wide eyes. "We should go visit our Guild doctor, Porlyusica, later. If you need medical attention I want her to be aware of these facts."

"She won't find the information odd?" Naruto was worried about revealing too many things too fast.

"No." Makarov said as he shook his head. "She is one of the people who knows about other worlds."

"Alright then." Naruto said after letting out a breath.

"Good." Makarov said as he clapped his hands. "Now let's go get this thing over with."

"Where are we going to fight?" Naruto asked curiously. "Mira-chan said you didn't have a training field."

"There's enough room out front and with the others around we can stop any damage to the town." Makarov said with a wave of his hand, Naruto however hummed in thought.

"I can do one better." Makarov gave him an odd look but Naruto ignored it.

He stood from his chair and walked to the desk, unsealing a scroll then opening it to unseal a brush, ink and blank seal tags. Makarov watched in interest as Naruto wrote on the seal tags for a minute before turning back to him.

"If I place these and then activate them I can create a barrier to incase us." Naruto said. "It should hold back any attacks we throw." Makarov looked at him for a second before putting his hands on Naruto's shoulders.

"You are a god send." Naruto chuckled at Makarovs serious attitude. "Well if you're ready let's get to it." Standing up Makarov walked to the door and flung it open. "Listen up everyone!" Naruto watched as everyone stopped and turned to Makarov. "This is our new member Naruto Uzumaki." He pointed to Naruto behind him. "Now Naru-chan here." Naruto gained a tick mark at the name. "Has agreed to have a match against a few of you."

"OHHHH I'm all fired up." Naruto watched a pink haired boy suddenly start breathing fire before he rushed toward him, only to have Makarov bash him to the ground with his enlarged hand.

"Natsu calm down, you're going to get your chance but wait." Makarov said with a stern voice before letting the fire boy up. "Gray, Elfman you two will also be facing him."

"Sounds good to me." A half-naked boy said as he eyed Naruto.

"Fights are the only way to test a real man." A tall muscular man said, Naruto noticed he too had white hair and assumed that was Mirajane's brother she spoke about.

"Right well let's go outside." Makarov said as he began heading towards the front doors, Naruto following close behind. He heard the muttering behind his back and listened to a girl putting down odds. Makarov and Naruto stood in the street as everyone filed outside and created a circle around them, Natsu stood just opposite him and was shadow boxing with excitement. "How much room do you need?"

"As long as it's not over a forty feet it'll be fine." Naruto said as he looked at the space they had. "I will need to put them in a square though."

"Fine, fine." Makarov said with a wave of his hand. "Just go about it and if anyone asks tell them I said it's a secret." Naruto noticed the man had a mischievous look in his eye, Naruto chuckled as he went to work. "Natsu, Gray, Elfman." The three mages all walked over to Makarov as he called them. "Come with me." The Guild Master took the trio through the gathered group and out of the hearing range of them. "Now this is more than a simple match, Naruto was a S-Class mage at his home and you will be his test."

"What!" Natsu yelled. "How come he gets a test?"

"Because he's already an S-Class flame brain." Gray said as he rolled his eyes. "How come Erza or Mirajane aren't doing this?"

"One, I don't know when any of the other S-Classes will be back." Makarov said with a shrug. "And two I want to see Naru-chan's skills just like everyone here, seems pointless to make him fight and give a test later."

"Nee-chan mentioned he was a skilled at his home." Elfman said as he crossed his arms over his chest. "He must be a real man."

"Whatever, when can we fight?" Natsu said as he cracked his knuckles.

"In a minute Natsu." Makarov said with a sigh, talking with Natsu made him tired. "Natsu you will fight him first, go all out." Natsu looked like a kid in a candy store while Gray and Elfman paled.

"Wait a second Master." Gray said quickly. "I don't care how strong the guy is, the town won't survive that."

"Don't worry about it." Makarov said, mentally picturing everyone's faces when Naruto put up his barrier. "Now Gray you will fight after Natsu, Naruto will not get a break and will be limited to five spells only."

"Why?" Gray asked confused to the rule.

"I want to see how well he can strategize and handle unknown situations." Makarov said. "Now Elfman you will be last and the rules for your match are hand to hand combat and the only magic allowed is kinds that affect the body."

"So my Take Over magic is allowed." Elfman said as he looked over the crowd at Naruto. "Is his magic similar?"

"I don't know but again S-Class mages must be prepared for anything." Makarov said as he turned on his heel. "Natsu let's go, you two should find a good view." Gray and Elfman gave sharp nods and disappeared into the crowd as Makarov lead Natsu, who had calmed down and become serious to the opening.

Looking around Makarov noticed many of the Guild Members were looking at the seals Naruto had placed around the street. He chuckled as he saw Levy McGarden examining the seal with stars in her eyes. "Everything ready? Makarov asked as he walked towards Naruto.

"Waiting on you old timer." The Guild members in hearing range all started to laugh, Makarov glared at Naruto before turning to Natsu.

"When I say begin you can start." Natsu nodded as he grinned at Naruto, who was looking over Natsu with a calculating eye.

"I saw him breathing fire and earlier he incased his fists in it, so he was the fire mage I felt earlier." Naruto thought as flexed his fingers. "That means the guy he fights with all the time is probably the Ice mage." Naruto looked over to Gray and then back to Natsu. "If I stick with Suiton and substitution I should be able to surprise him."

"Everyone back up from the seals Naruto put down." The guild members did as Makarov said but looked about at each other and the seals. "Naruto?" the blonde shinobi nodded and formed a hand seal.

"Four Seal Encampment" Everyone jumped back as blue walls shot up and encased Natsu and Naruto.

"What the hell?" Natsu said as he looked around the barrier.

"It's a barrier to keep us from destroying the town." Naruto said as he began to stretch.

"So I don't have to worry about destroying anything." Natsu broke into a grin. "I'm really fired up now."

"Are you two ready?" Makarov asked turning to each of them and getting a nod he held up his arm. "Then Begin!"

Natsu kicked off the ground as he heard Makarov, fire encased his fists and he pulled his right arm back to strike Naruto. The shinobi watched Natsu moved, slightly impressed with his speed, and waited until he was about to hit him before grabbing Natsu on his elbow. He then crouched and spun, throwing the pink haired mage behind him and towards the barrier. Natsu corrected himself mid-flight and landed on the ground, spinning to face his opponent and rushing back at him, fists still burning bright. Naruto let him throw some punches, moving just before they would hit him but soon enough that the flames didn't touch him. After a few seconds of weaving through the punches Naruto found an opening and kicked Natsu in the stomach, as the mage bent over from the blow Naruto spun on his left foot and kicked Natsu towards the barrier with his right.

Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

"Damn" Macao Conbolt said as he watched the fight with interest. "This guy's good."

"You can say that again." Wakaba Mine said as he watched the blonde man dodge Natsu's assault. "I don't even think he feels the heat from Natsu's flames."

"Maybe we bet on the wrong guy." Macao half joked.

"Bets are closed boys." Both men turned to see the resident alcoholic, Cana Alberona, raising a barrel of alcohol to her lips. "I knew something was fishy for a guy to be fighting three mages."

"And you couldn't warn us because?" Macao asked.

"Because I like taking your money." Cana laughed out. "Oh that's got to hurt." The gathered mages all turned to see Natsu get kicked across the fighting area.

Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

"Your strong." Natsu said as he stood and whipped sweat off his skin. "Try this!"

"Fire Dragon's Roar" Opening his mouth wide Natsu unleashed a large blast of fire at Naruto. Said man looked on in interest as he held up his hands.

"Suiton: Tearing Torrent" Water swirled in both Naruto's hands before it shot out in two huge streams to meet Natsu's fire. Steam filled the barrier as the attacks fought against each other, hiding the fighters from sight.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

"So he's a water mage." Gray said as the fight became hidden in the steam.

"Should make your fight easier." Elfman said as he thought about what he's seen of Naruto.

"Maybe." Ray said as he tried to look through the steam. "But even if his homes standard of S-Class isn't the same as Fairy Tail's he is strong."

"True, only a real man could dodge Natsu like that."

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

"This is good." Naruto thought as he created three clones, which all disappeared into the steam. "Time for some fun."

"Dammit." Natsu said as he looked around the now clouded area. "He had to use water, heh, this just got even more interesting." The youth cracked his knuckles and closed his eyes, focusing his sense of smell. "What the hell?" Natsu said as he found Naruto's sent in four different directions.

"Having trouble Natsu-san?" Natsu spun around when he heard the voice by his ear but found no one there.

"Just missed me." Natsu heard behind him again in his ear.

"Fire Dragon's Roar" Natsu turned his head and released his fire into the steam hoping to hit Naruto.

"Man someone needs to lay off the spicy food." Natsu growled and leaped as he haerd the voice to his left.

"Come out you bastard!" He swung savagely into the steam but found nothing. "I'm tired of this." Natsu said as fire came from his legs.

"Fire Dragon Claws" Flipping onto his hands Natsu spun, releasing fire from his legs into the surrounding area.

The Naruto's all chuckled as they clung high in the air on the barrier, the original slightly impressed with the technique. "Time to end this." With a few hand seals the original dropped into the ground as Natsu got back on his feet.

"Did I get him?" Natsu looked around the area as the steam started to disappear.

"Doton: Double Suicide Decapitation Technique" Natsu looked down as hands grabbed his legs and before he could act he was drawn into the earth.

"What the hell!" Natsu began struggling to get out of the ground. "Let me out of here."

"Sorry Natsu-san but this is my win." Naruto said as he crouched down next to Natsu's head.

"Oh yea?" The boy said as he started to take a breath, Naruto realized what was about to happen and quickly delivered a chakra infused strike to Natsu's neck to knock him unconscious.

"Yea." Naruto stood and released the barrier as his clones dispersed; he didn't want that technique being known yet.

"Holy crap he killed Natsu!" Naruto let out a sigh as the steam cleared and people saw only Natsu's head.

"Relax he's just buried and unconscious." Naruto said with a wave of his hand. "By the way someone should probably help him."

"Someone please dig up Natsu." Makarov called out as he tapped the top of Natsu's head. As some of the members began digging up Natsu Makarov walked over to Naruto. "As soon as he's been dug out will start the next fight."

"Sounds good." Naruto said as he looked over at Gray, who was moving into the area.

"You are limited to five Jutsu for this match." Makarov said as he turned to walk out of the area. "I'll trust your judgment on Jutsu or technique."

Naruto nodded absently as he thought over his strategy, he was going under the assumption Gray used a magic similar to Ice or cold weather because of his magic. With everyone only seeing him use water Naruto had an edge and decided on two Katon Jutsu along with Shadow clones. "I'll leave the other two open for when I see more of his skills." As two of the Guild members took off the unconscious Natsu he prepared to active the barrier again.
