A new Fairy Tail team so a new chapter. Also an early front on a question that got asked a lot these last two chapters and I mean a lot of time over who will be fighting Sting and Rouge. I've had to answer this several times in past Q&A's so i will answer it one last time. It's Natsu and Gajeel. no one else. I did state I would be keeping several of the key fights in this arc close to the original manga/anime as possible so everyone please. Calm your tits!

"It doesn't matter." Laxus spoke out loud over his lack of concern.
"What! How can you say that!?" Cana asked.
"I agree with Laxus." Natsu spoke up. "It doesn't matter how may points they want us to fall behind. We're still gonna wipe them all over the floor."
"Well you heard it gramps. So who do you have in mind for the team?" Naruto asked his grandfather with a smile.
Naruto: The Fairy Tail Shadow: Part 3: Chapter 25: The Grand Magic Games Arc Part 20: Team Fairy Tail and Round 1 (Doubles)
(S Class Promotion Trial OST)
"And welcome back for the fourth day of the Grand Magic Games! We have some major news to break out for today's events. Due to the expulsion of Raven Tail both Fairy Tail teams have had to merge into one team. WE'll be announcing the line up soon But that's not the only news we have. Due to the lower number of teams now taking part we've had to cancel today's planed event and move straight to the double match ups. And our first match will be between The new Fairy Tail and Hidden Beasts. Please welcome the new Fairy Tail team!"
(Tenrou Island Theme OST)
The five mages of Team Fairy Tail started their walk down the dark corridor towards the arena. Unlike the first day of the games they were no sounds of boos through the crowd. Instead was a loud roar of excitement. Walking first out was a blond haired ma who was covered in lighting. He raised his fist into the air as lighting from the heavens crashed into his raised fist.
"The first mage is LAXUS DRAYER!"
The second to enter the arena was a pink hair mage. He punched his chest before roaring a huge blast of fire into the air.
"The second mage is NATSU DRAGNEEL!"
The third mage to enter could be heard with a clanks of her metal armor. When she fully entered she re-quipped hundreds of blades and made them dance around her body.
"The third mage is ERZA SCARLET!"
The fourth mage entered the arena the ground was covered in ice. He soon slammed his fist together to mold a giant ice statue of the Fairy Tail emblem.
"The fourth mage is GRAY FULLBUSTER!"
And when it came to the fifth and final member he simply didn't walk out. He threw a kunai in his place, and after a brief flash of orange stood a man covered in orange chakra.
"And the final member is NARUTO DREYAR!"
The crowd went into overdrive after watching the new Fairy Tail team enter the arena in style.
"For this round could each team taking part please select two members."
"Ok Naruto, we're up against other people who use chakra. Apart from you who do you think could cope best?" Gray asked.
"Pick me, pick me." Natsu said with excitement.
"Sorry man but I think me and Erza could do this."
"No fair man!" Natsu groaned
"I agree with Naruto. We've all seen what chakra attacks con do and we can't pick Natsu or myself as they would simply not use fire nor lightning based attacks on us. We have to be opened minded."
"Looks like we're up then. You ready?" Erza asked Naruto.
"You bet."
Meanwhile over with the Hidden Beasts they were currently arguing over who would be fighting until Obito had to stop and say who was fighting.
"Are you sure they should fight?"
"I'm positive. I want to see how Naruto will be able to work against these odds. If he can." Obito spoke with a composed tone and he nodded towards the two member taking part.
(Fairy Tail vs Hidden Beasts)
(Ninja Groove OST)
"And with the teams ready it looks like it's Naruto and Erza of Fairy Tail and Jiraiya and Hiruzen of Hidden Beasts. We'll be missing our ref for today's events so allow me to officially say the match can now begin!"
Naruto and Erza wasted no time as they both rushed towards Jiraiya and Hiruzen. Naruto's punched was countered by a kick from Jiraiya and Erza's sword was blocked by a kunai from Hiruzen.
Hiruzen pulled back to get some space and threw several hand signs. "FIRE STYLE: FIREBALL!" A giant fireball was launched at Erza. Seeing the attack she quickly re-quipped and sliced the attack in half. She re-quipped into her Fire Empress armor and was using her Water Empress sword.
"MULTI SHADOW CLONE!" Meanwhile with Naruto created over fifty clones.
"Just like your mother. Her chakra levels were amazingly high as well." Jiraiya commented with a smile as he prepared for the clones to strike. One by one Jiraiya tossed, kicked or punched each clone until three Narutos remained. "But you made the same mistake as her. Too much bravo to start off with. It's not a sprint." Jiraiya grunted as he finished off the remaining Narutos. However when there was only one left it dispersed itself.
"EARTH STYLE: HEADHUNTER!: A hand grabbed Jiraiya's ankle and pulled his whole body into the ground.
Jiraiya looked at Naruto with a confused face. "And this unpredictability come from you father. No question about that." When he finished Jiraiya had a smile on his face. But in a puff of smoke his body was replaced with a log.
"What the?" Naruto said with a confused tone as he looked at the log.
"But I taught you father everything he knew! RASENGAN!" Jiraiya slammed a Rasengan into Naruto's back sending him crashing into the arena walls.
(Kokuten OST)
Meanwhile with Erza and Hiruzen it was a more even showing with neither getting the upper hand on the other at any stage.
"RE-QUIP: FLIGHT ARMOR!" Erza sudden increase in speed gave her the upper hand as she forced Hiruzen to use a second kunai to help counter Erza's single sword. 'He's not much older than Minato but he's more skilled for sure. I'd say he would easily handle most of the mages in Fairy Tail on his own. But he can't cope with speedy attacks.' Erza thought to herself as she finally managed to hit Hiruzen.
"I suggest quitting." Erza spoke with her demanding voice.
"Mind if I got serious?" Hiruzen asked in a neutral tone as he place a single hand sign. "SHARINGAN!" He onyx eyes became red but there was something else. Each eye had three tomoe marks circling around.
Erza took no heed to the changes in Hiurzen's eyes. She pressed forwards in her attacks. But this time something was different. 'How's is he able to dodge these attacks. He couldn't a few moments ago.' Erza thought to herself as Hiruzen was easily countering Erza's fast attacks.
"I can see your movements." Hiruzen spoke once more in a neutral tone as he got behind Erza and kicked her in the back.
"Then try quantity over quality. RE-QUIP: HEAVEN'S WHEEL!" Re-quipping to her favorite armor Erza summoned over one hundred swords as she launched them towards Hiruzen.
"Too easy." Erza then watched in shock as it seemed Hiruzen simply ghost past every single sword. Before she knew it Erza was directly staring into his eyes. She soon felt a sudden pain rush over her body as she dropped to the ground out cold. "Genjutsu. You might not have chakra in your body but mixing you inner Ki should just about do the same trick."
(Spin and Burst OST)
When Naruto hit the wall from Jiraiya's rasengan he thought quickly as to hat his next ore might be. 'Wait...He said he thought my old man everything he knew. That's it!' Naruto finally manged to think of an attack to use on Jiraiya.
"So you thought my dad everything then huh. How about I show you a new trick?"
"I doubt you can show me anything I haven't seen in all my years. But you can try."
"METEOR!" A golden glow covered the edge of Naruto's skin as he moved faster and faster with each second.
Jiraiya was barely able to keep track of Naruto as he circled around him. 'He's planning something... With this speed he could easily strike me several time before i could even react. But so far he hasn't done anything. Is he trying to increase his speed to make sure i can't counter.' Jiraiya thought to himself.
Suddenly Naruto just stopped. Jiraiya flinched in this sudden change before he seen Naruto pointing upwards. As he looked up he seen another Naruto with seven golden seals in the sky. "Shadow clones!?.. When did you?" Jiraiya was not able to finish his sentence as Naruto unleashed his attack.
"GRAND CHARIOT!" Seven beams of light crashed into the arena floor and knocked Jiraiya out cold. With Jiraiya out of the match he moved back to the ground as he seen Hiruzen was waiting for him, his sharingan showing. "I'm really impressed you beat Erza. Not even Natsu nor Gray could pull that off." Naruto complemented Hiruzen with drew a hey from the two mages he spoke about.
Hiruzen tired his best to not listen to his complement as he wanted to remained focused. "Are you not going to attack or do you just talk all the time?"
"Tell me Hiruzen. How old are you?"
"I'm fifteen."
"Then I guess your old enough then. Hey Obito, Rin!?" Naruto then shouted towards the other member's of Hidden Beasts.
"What is it?" Obito asked.
"Might if I use my ultimate justu on your son? With Erza out cold I can finally use it." Naruto stated.
Obito and Rin looked at each other with a bit of concern. They both thought what kind of jutsu he would be talking about that was so powerful Erza couldn't be near him. Reluctantly Obito responded. "Sure."
"Alright! TRANSFORM!"
(Sexiness OST)
A puff of smoke surrounded Naruto. When the smoke cleared there stood a completely naked woman staring at Hiruzen. The naked woman then blew a kiss towards Hiruzen.
"YOUR ULTIMATE JUTSU WAS TO TURN INTO A NAKED WOMAN! LIKE MY SON WOULD EVER!" No sooner had Rin spoke those words she seen Hiruzen fall backwards with a heavy stream of blood rushing from his nose. She quickly looked around to find early every male passed out and some women in the crowd as well effected by this transformation.
"Well... That was unexpected... The winner is Fairy Tail. Could someone please got me and Yajima a tissue to clean up our blood."
"Thank god Erza didn't see that." Naruto sighed in relief. However when he turned around he seen someone staring at him with more rage that he'd ever felt before. And it was coming from Lucy McGarden. "Oh shit."
Lucy never said a word to Naruto. She just simply cracker the knuckles in her real hand as a giant tick mark showed on her forehead. "I'm dead."
And Cut! Well I'm guessing no one seen that one coming. Now some of you might be guessing why have Gray in the team and not Gajeel. Gajeel will be the back up ad he will still be helping Natsu fight Sting and Rouge so please no questions over that once more. Anyway here is this chapter's Q&A!
1) Will Naruto become friends with Kurama? Yes Naruto will becoming friends with Kurama but not for a few more chapters yet.
2) Do you base any character fights in a Martial art style? I honestly don't really think of any fighting styles when writing. I mainly just imagine the fight in my head before I write. I try not to look into them too much as it would take me a long time to watch hours upon hours of these styles before I would feel comfortable.
3) Are there going to be any more surprises in store? Now honestly ask this. If I answer this question with either a yes or a no will it still be a surprise?
4) Do you think any recently release manga could get to the same level as Naruto? With Manga it's hard to tell. You can get some that could start off well but just die a horrible death. Personally I would say Bleach as an example as I feel it should've ended after the Aizen fight. But it all honesty it depends on if it can keep that going. I'd say if you would've asked the same question twenty years ago about Dragonball you never would've guessed the level of success both Naruto and more noticeably One Piece (Which I think is a masterpiece btw.) But if I was to pick one out now that I enjoy the most now it would be Boku no Hero Academia.
So that's all for this chapter folks. Like always if you have a question do feel free to post a review or PM myself. If I don't answer your question on next chapter's Q&A I will try to reply via PM. Thank you for reading this chapter. I hope you've all enjoyed it. Till next time!
