(Day 3 of the Grand Magic Games, X789)

(Domus Flau.)

The second day of the Grand Magic games hadn't gone well for Team Fairy Tail as they had hoped it would and much to their displeasure, the 3rd day wasn't also looking so promising for them.

They were still in the 5th place, trailing behind the first-placed Sabertooth— who had managed to win every round so far, Lamia Scale in second place, Blue Pegasus in third place, and Quarto Cerberus in fourth place.

They were then followed by Hound Holy, Orochi's Fin, and Phoenix Grave in 6th, 7th and 8th place, respectively.

So far, Team Fairy Tail and even their whole guild felt their chances of winning the whole thing or even finishing in the Top 3 rank slowly diminishing, due to their poor performances in the games.

Yesterday, Alzack and Max participated in the second event of the games; which was 'Chariot bullseye', where one mage had to shoot at moving targets while riding on a magical chariot that was maneuvered by the other mage. The game sounded simple to them and they were expecting to win it as Alzack was quite good at aiming with his Gun magic, but they only managed to secure 4th place earning only 3 points for the Fairies, with Rufus and Rogue from Team Sabertooth winning the game by completely annihilating the competition with the former use of his Memory magic.

After that, Jet also failed to secure a win against Eve from Team Blue Pegasus during the combat round of the second day.

Adding further salt to the injury, the speed mage again failed to secure a win during the first event of the 3rd day, which was called the 'Magic Marathon'; where the objective of the participants was to complete a whole marathon around the city while employing traps using their magic to deter the other competitors. Jet only managed to finish the marathon in 3rd place earning his team 5 points, once again the winner of the game being a mage from Team Sabertooth, this time With another dominating performance by Minerva with her Territory magic.

After this, Alzack was matched up against Narpudding from Quarto Cerberus in the combat round, and much to the relief of the Fairies, the Gun mage managed to end the match in a draw securing 5 points for them.

Now, since tomorrow was going to be the final day of the Grand Magic Games where two games were supposedly going to be played, there was going to be 3 combat rounds on the third day itself. As the organizers wanted to rapt the whole thing and prepare for the two games that were going to be played on the final day.

They just hoped that Laki will be able to win her match against her opponent, Semmes from Team Quarto Cerberus. As they were in a dire need of points.

(Line Break)

"Yes! she did it!" Naruto and the other members of Team Fairy Tail cheered in excitement as they saw the only female member of their team knocking out the brutish-looking mage of Quarto Cerberus with a huge whip made out of her 'Plant magic'.

The fight had been in favor of Laki from the very start, as she was easily able to trap and stop Semmes with her plant magic, preventing the man to use his spinning magic, which only seemed to work when he was... spinning like a top. Which Naruto as well as all the people spectating the fight thought was pretty dumb and stupid magic.

Nonetheless, the four-man of Team Fairy Tail excitedly rushed toward their teammate and hugged her, while profusely thanking her for securing the 10 points, making the girl blush in embarrassment.

"Idiots...you guys are making a scene!" Laki berated her teammates, adjusting her glasses awkwardly to hide her embarrassment as she noticed that some members of the crowd were laughing at their silly act.

"After a close fight, Laki from Team Fairy manages to clinch the victory for her team!" Chapati announced loudly over the mic earning a huge cheer of excitement from the crowd "Her win finally manages to secure Team Fairy Tail their second 10 points after a poor performance during the previous games!"

"He doesn't have to put it like this man." Jet groaned covering his face with both of his hands in embarrassment, with both Max and Alzack mirroring his action.

"He isn't wrong, though." Naruto quipped teasingly, prompting his three friends to sulk with dark rain clouds hovering above their heads.

They already knew that they had performed quite poorly in their respective rounds, but to be constantly teased and reminded of it by their blonde teammate and even their guild mates was kinda depressing for them.

At first, the blonde had been pretty supportive after their losses but after a while, he started to tease them... nonstop.

Even little Asuka hadn't gone easy on them with her constant teasing just like her surrogate brother. The three of them still wondered how can someone as cute as her could hurt them so much with her words.

"Please stop teasing them, Naruto-kun," Laki chided the grinning blonde, defending her depressed teammates. Though, it didn't help much as she also let out a small giggle from her mouth seeing the look on their faces.

"Not you too! Laki-chan!" The sulking members of the team exclaimed in dismay at their friend's betrayal.

(Up in the stands)

"These guys are so embarrassing." Bisca groaned feeling second-hand embarrassment as they watched their team act childishly up from their spectator seats.

"Sigh...you are correct." Macao sighed rubbing his head "I had initially hoped that Naruto would act a bit more mature compared to Jet and Max, but I guess...I was wrong."

Wakaba being the most jovial one of the bunch, simply laughed watching Team Fairy Tail, and expressed "What did you two even expect? This is how we act all the time. These kids are just representing our guild's rambunctious attitudes so no need to feel embarrassed about it you two."

The other Fairy Tail members who had heard Wakaba's words cheered loudly in agreement earning another tired sigh from their guild master.

"GO! GO! TEAM FAIRY TAIL!"

'Is this how you always felt when dealing with us, Master?' Macao lamented to their late master peering at the sky, exhausted by the way his guild members were acting, and internally prayed and apologized to his late master for the way they used to act in the past.

Line break.

"Now for the next matchup of the 3rd day..." Chapati started announcing the next match as the crowd watched the lacrima screen in anticipation, and roared in excitement as they all saw the names that appeared on the screen "Oh! Finally!... This is a fight that all of us have been waiting for since the start of the first event! We have Naruto Uzumaki from Team Fairy Tail Vs Jura Neekis from Team Lamia Scale."

"Of all the people that Naruto could have match-up against, it had to be Jura. Isn't it?" Macao grumbled in annoyance and a little bit of nervousness seeing who their Ace was going to fight against in this round. Even though, he had a nagging feeling that it was going to happen.

"Dad, why are you all getting nervous?" Romeo curiously asked as he noticed that his dad and the other members started to become nervous "Hasn't big brother Naruto already defeated Jura-san before? So he is probably going to win this time again isn't he?"

Instead of his dad, it was Wakaba who decided to answer the boy's question, "Romeo-kun, it is indeed true that Naruto had managed to defeat Jura during the evaluation. But, Jura wasn't really fighting seriously at that time and was just testing Naruto to see his capabilities as an S-class mage. Granted, that brat wasn't also fighting seriously at that time but Jura is a Wizard Saint, one of the strongest mages in Fiore and It would be a bad idea to underestimate him just because he was bested last time by Naruto."

Hearing that, Romeo gulped nervously "So, are you saying that big brother Naruto might lose this fight?

"Ahh..." Wakaba didn't get the chance to reply as someone decided to make her presence known, much to the embarrassment of her mother.

"No way! big brother is never going to lose to that baldy!" Asuka loudly proclaimed, waving her flag that had the face of his brother imprinted on it.

The Fairy Tail members chuckled, feeling their previous nervousness sipping away after hearing the proclamation made by their youngest 'member' and started to cheer for their ace.

They really hope and prayed that Naruto could clinch the victory against the Wizard Saint; even if it seemed like an impossible task to accomplish for any regular mage, thankfully, Naruto was not any regular mage.

(Line break)

"Good luck, Naruto-kun."

"Show him who's the boss!"

Naruto grinned and waved his hands hearing his teammates loudly cheer for him as he made his way to the field; while also trying his best to ignore the heated glare that he was receiving from a certain White dragon slayer from the Sabertooth stand.

Honestly, Naruto was quite relieved to see that the dragon slayer hadn't been expelled from the guild, he was kinda feeling annoyed by the constant glaring that he was receiving from his fellow blonde since yesterday.

Deciding to just deal with the dragon slayer in the finale, Naruto let out a sigh of annoyance from his mouth and stared at Jura, who was standing just a few meters away from him. By the look on the Wizard Saint's face, Naruto could tell that the mage was just as excited as him about the fight.

While the blonde would have preferred to have fought the Wizard Saint in the Finale, he wasn't really complaining about the match-up. Instead, he was truly excited to finally fight a mage of Jura's caliber. Granted, he was kinda miffed with the thought of revealing a decent amount of his abilities and jutsu before the final event. But that was unavoidable if he wanted to win this fight against the Wizard Saint.

As unlike the other mages, Jura was an all-round fighter according to his observations that he had done during the last year's Grand Magic Games. The earth mage had a large arsenal of long-range spells, defensive spells, and short-ranged spells and was also quite formidable in hand-to-hand combats.

'I would need to get in close if I want to end this fight quickly.' Naruto reckoned though he knew that it wouldn't be easy to do so. Since the mage already knew about his Hiraishin. It would be hard for him to take down the mage with his long-range jutsu as he didn't have a strong arsenal of those under his belt.

Granted, he had his Rasenshuriken and its variations, but he wasn't stupid to use those against Jura. That would be overkill...literally.

"You seemed to have taken your sweet time to get here, Naruto-san." Jura chuckled and lightly commented.

"Ah...Sorry about that, " Naruto sheepishly apologized to the man as he indeed had taken some time to get to the field due to his teammates fretting about his matchup against said man, "I was just excited about this fight and forgot my way to the field." he joked trying to lamely pull a Kakashi on the Wizard Saint.

Jura blinked in confusion upon hearing the blonde's response, "Oh...then I apologize for what I had just said." he bowed his head guiltily and apologized.

'Eh?...didn't he seriously get that I was joking?' Naruto thought and sweatdropped seeing the man apologize to him, "Ah... it is okay, Jura. You don't need to..uh...apologize for that."

"Thank you, Naruto-san," Jura smiled at the blonde thankfully and asked, "Are you ready for our fight then?"

'What the hell? Is he teasing me or something?' Naruto wondered confused by Wizard Saint's disposition and simply decided to ignore it as he felt that he would be more confused if he thought about it too much.

"Ah...Yes, I'm ready for the fight. What about you?"

"I'm also fully ready for the fight, " Jura replied and confessed, "In fact, I have been looking forward to testing my skills against you for a while now, Naruto-san."

"Likewise, " Naruto claimed and grinned at the mage "I have also been looking forward to this fight. I hoped that you won't hold back against me like last time."

"I would dare not, Naruto-san." Jura chuckled at the excited look on Naruto's face and prepared himself to probably go all-out against the blonde. He had a feeling that he would need to do so if he wanted to beat the Fairy Tail mage this time.

Line break

"Yajima-san, this has been one of the most anticipated fights of this year's Games! Whom do you think will emerge victorious between those two mages?" Chapati excitedly asked the former Magic Council member.

"Hmm..." Yajima mulled over the question for a bit as he stared at the two figures of interest "...no comment."

"Ah...Okay," Chapati sweatdropped at Yajima's answer...or lack of and after composing himself turned to Jenny; who seemed to be giggling amused by the older man's response. "Jenny-san, what is your opinion about this match-up then?"

"Well...If you had asked me about my opinion of this fight a few weeks ago. I wouldn't have wasted even a second to say that Jura would be the winner, " Jenny told her opinion of the fight, smiling as she did so, "But now, after seeing Uzumaki-san easily defeat Bacchus and Sting in the first round... I am not really sure about the winner myself."

Chapati nodded his head at her sound response and turned to the field with an excited gleam in his eyes, "Now without any delay let's start the most anticipated match of the Games! Begin!"

*Gong!!*

(Line break)

Naruto Vs Jura

As soon as the gong was struck commencing the battle, Naruto let out an excited grin and leaped at the Wizard Saint determined to close the gap between them, wanting to initiate the battle in close-quarter combat as he had initially planned.

However just as Naruto had anticipated, the Wizard Saint didn't let the blonde get close to him by summoning three huge pillars of earth from the ground blocking the charge.

Sensing the ground rumble under him, Naruto jumped high in the air, which he was glad that he did, as the ground started caving in and large pillars of earth emerged from the ground and started to chase him like they were some sort of earth snake.

Naruto expertly managed to dodge all the pillars by jumping over them and had to leap from one pillar to the other at a rapid pace to avoid the numerous slabs of rock that were launched by Jura toward him.

'It seems Jura wasn't joking when he said that he wouldn't be holding back this time.' Naruto thought in annoyance as he didn't see any opening that he could use to get closer to the Wizard Saint, due to the pillars converging and chasing him at every step. The blonde grumbled as he also noticed that the mage hadn't even moved even a single step from his previous spot and was commanding those pillar's movements like an orchestral conductor. 'This isn't getting me anywhere, man. I might have to act fast, otherwise, I'll just be jumping around throughout this whole fight.'

"Iron Rock Fist!"

Seeing the all-too-familiar massive rock fist heading toward him, Naruto concluded that he had dodged enough and decided to change the pace of the fight.

The blonde leaped from a pillar toward the approaching rock fist and much to the surprise of the spectators, he landed on it and started to dash on top of it, his eyes completely focused on its summoner. He then wordlessly summoned one shadow clone beside him, who nodded in understanding, and both of them rapidly went through some hand seals.

Jura seeing the blonde summon the clones while still sprinting on top of his rock fist decided to cancel his spell as a means to stop whatever the blonde was planning to do; making the massive rock fist to crumble down into large chunks of rocks.

However, it didn't help the Wizard Saint very much...

Despite, feeling the surface of the rock that he and his clone were currently running on beginning to crumble, Naruto and his clone let out identical grins on their whiskered faces completely unbothered by it, and launched their respective jutsu at the Wizard Saint.

"Fire Release: Grand Fireball technique!" Naruto cried out and expelled a massive stream of flames from his mouth which then took the shape of a huge fireball and headed straight toward Jura.

"Wind Release: Great Breakthrough!"

The clone also simultaneously called out the name of the technique with his summoner and breathe out a huge surge of wind from his mouth and disappeared in a puff of smoke after his job was done.

Jura's eyes widened in surprise as he saw the two 'magic spells' cast by Naruto. He then became alarmed when he noticed the two spells somehow getting mixed, and transformed into a massive globe of fire as the wind fueled the already large ball of fire.

'This heat is intense!' Jura sweated as he felt the massive heat generated by the flames and recognizing the danger that was heading toward him, the Wizard Saint quickly got into action...

"Iron Rock Wall!" Jura cried out his signature defensive spell and summoned a massive wall of bricks in front of him, from the ground in an attempt to block the massive globe of fire that was heading toward him.

*BOOM!*

As the massive globe of fire struck the brick wall, a huge explosion echoed throughout the stadium creating a lot of dust and smoke. However, much to the relief of the Wizard Saint, his attempt at stopping the attack worked as the globe of flame wasn't able to get past his defensive spell.

Though, Jura wasn't given any time of reprieve as he heard a very familiar sound from the cloud of dust...the sound of sharp blades piercing through the air.

Noticing the multiple glints of those weird sharp knives that Naruto had used during their previous match, the Wizard Saint quickly jumped high up in the air to avoid being skewered by them as he sensed that he wouldn't be able to summon another defensive spell in time to block the hail of knives.

Which was a huge mistake on his part...

Since, other than a single kunai, all the kunais that were heading toward the Wizard Saint disappeared in a puff of smoke as soon as the Wizard Saint had jumped in the air, and as soon as that single kunai was directly below the airborne Saint; Naruto teleported to that single kunai in a flash of orange light and with a foxy grin on his lips, he quickly shot it up toward the mage in the air and teleported himself again to that kunai.

Seeing the blonde appear just a few inches away from him in the air, the Wizard Saint's eyes widened in shock as he realized that he wouldn't be able to dodge or even form a substantial defense against whatever the blonde was planning to do, mid-air.

"Brace yourself." Naruto grinned victoriously and advised seeing the shocked expression on the mage's face and proceeded to deliver a massive punch at the said mage's face; who crossed his arms in front of his face in an attempt to block the punch...

However, it didn't help the Wizard Saint much as the force of the punch sent the mage soaring down to the ground like a bullet.

"Boom!*

(Line Break.)

The crowd grew completely silent in disbelief as they saw the Wizard Saint crash on the ground creating a large crater, courtesy of the punch thrown by Naruto. They didn't know how the battle had turned so quickly in favor of the blonde, who had been on the defensive since the beginning of the fight. Most of them even weren't able to keep track of the blonde fast movements!

Though, one thing was sure to them...they were all getting their money's worth today.

"He can use both wind and Fire magic as well?" Frosch asked in astonishment as he had seen the enormous ball of flame and wind cast by the Fairy Tail mage.

"It seems so, not to mention that he knows some form of territory magic like our mistress," Rogue spoke as he noticed Naruto somehow teleport toward the Wizard Saint, and by the look on the mistress's face, the shadow dragon slayer knew that she had also made the same observation as him.

"That bastard...was really looking down on me wasn't he?" Sting gritted in anger as he witnessed the abilities of the Fairy Tail mage and realized that his fellow blonde had completely made a mockery out of him during their previous bout.

The White Dragon slayer felt himself getting furious as he recalled the punishment and humiliation that he had to go through at the hands of his guild master, thanks to the Fairy Tail mage. He would have been expelled from the guild just like the many weak mages in the past, but thankfully, his reputation as one-half of the Twin dragon slayer saved him from getting expelled. Though, he knew that his reputation won't save him again from the wrath of his master if he lost to the Fairy Tail mage in the finale again.

"Calm down, Sting..." Minerva told the furious dragon slayer, her eyes firmly observing the battle in front of her in interest "You will get your chance for redemption tomorrow, so just continue to observe the fight."

Sting gritted his teeth furiously at the nonchalant way Minerva had spoken to him but decided to simply back down and observe the battle.

(Back to the fight)

Jura grunted in pain as he slowly got back to his feet and wiped the small drop of blood that was leaking from his lips.

"You sure pack quite a mean punch, Naruto-san." The Wizard saint joked to the grinning blonde that was standing a few meters away from him as he noticed the crater that had formed on the ground during his crash, courtesy of the said grinning blonde.

"I get that a lot." Naruto quipped back with his ever-present foxy grin on his face, eliciting an amused chuckle from the mage. "Now that you have your rest, how about we get back to the fight?"

Jura snorted at the blonde jab; which was pretty uncharacteristic of him and answered back with an eager smile, "I thought you would never ask."

The Wizard Saint raised his right hand to form the hand seal, which he often used to cast and direct his spell but halted when he saw the blonde wink at him and suddenly disappear from his spot.

'What...?' Jura's eyes widened in shock as the blonde suddenly appeared right in front of him and he was forced to tilt slightly to avoid a punch thrown by the grinning blonde at his head.

Unbeknownst to the Wizard Saint, Naruto had managed to place a Hiraishin marker on the Saint's right wrist when he had delivered the devastating punch in the air before. Which made it possible for the shinobi to teleport and get closer to the mage now, and it meant that the mage had no choice but to continue the battle with the blonde in hand-to-hand combat, from now on.

"Surprise!" Naruto grinned mischievously and tried to deliver another punch to the surprised mage, which was expertly avoided by the mage again.

Just as the blonde had wanted, the two opponents started to continue the battle in pure hand-to-hand combat with similarly excited grins on both of their faces.

'As I had expected, he is different from the other mages.' Naruto excitedly thought as he had to lean back a little to avoid a punch thrown by Jura and attempted a kick at the Wizard Saint's chest which was blocked by the mage's hand. So far, Jura was the only person in the world that had been able to keep up with him in hand-to-hand combat and somewhat able to exchange blows for blows with him.

'Who is this kid?' Jura thought in awe as his hands felt the force of the kick that was attempted by the blonde. He had never been so excited in a battle, as he was now with the blonde. He now knew who he was going to recommend to the council for 'that' position in the next meeting.

'To think that someone so strong as him, was unknown to the world for so long is astonishing.' The Wizard Saint marveled as he saw Naruto just laugh in excitement like nothing had happened after he had successfully delivered a hard punch to the blonde's head. 'Makarov-dono would certainly be proud of having such a strong mage in his guild.'

"This is amazing! Who would have thought that someone so young would be able to fight with a Wizard Saint on an even footing!?" Chapati exclaimed in excitement as he and the awed crowd had their eyes completely glued on the two powerful fighters, trading blows for blows without showing any signs of giving up any time soon.

"It seems the crowd is enjoying the show." Naruto grinned at his opponent feeling even more excited as he heard the crowd roaring in enthusiasm.

Jura chuckled, agreeing with the blonde's statement, and blocked a roundhouse kick to his head with his hands, "It certainly seems so, but I think it is time that we rapt up our fight for good." The wizard saint declared and before the blonde could even react, he quickly formed a ram seal with his right hand.

"Shit!" Naruto's eyes widened in shock and cursed as he felt his legs get stuck in some sort of rocky cuffs that had suddenly emerged from the ground. He then felt his world spin a little as he suddenly got struck in the face by a heavy fist, courtesy of the Wizard Saint, and was sent flying away some meters away from his initial position.

"Ugh...that's what I get for making a rookie mistake." Naruto groaned and got back to his feet while rubbing his cheek a little in pain due to the sucker punch that he had just received from the Wizard Saint. He had gotten so into the fight that he had completely forgotten to pay attention to his surroundings, especially to the ground, which was his opponent's main element.

"I would have loved to continue this duel, Naruto-san. But I know that I'll lose this fight if I continue to engage with you in close-quarter combat and I can't allow that to happen." Jura regretfully confessed to the groaning Naruto and extended his right hand towards the blonde, his fingers placed in his most recurring hand gesture as the surface of the ground split into boulders of various sizes and started hovering beside him, ready to strike his opponent.

After engaging Naruto in close combat for a good five minutes, the Wizard Saint became keenly aware that he wasn't going to win the battle if he continued to engage the blonde in that way. As the blonde had expertly dodged and blocked every strike that he had thrown, even the ones that he had managed to successfully land didn't seem like to do much damage to the blonde; on the other hand, he could feel every punch and kick thrown by the blonde.

"Rock Avalanche!"

Seeing the numerous boulders launched toward him, Naruto thought of his options to avoid them. While he could simply teleport again to the marker that he had placed on the Wizard Saint, he concluded that it won't be as fun as his second option. Which was to show off a little. At this point, he didn't really care about keeping his abilities a secret for the finale, since he had already shown quite a bit already. Though, he doubted any of the participants in the Grand Magic Games could actually beat him even with the knowledge of his abilities since he could just overpower most of them with his sage mode or Six paths mode.

'Great...now I'm thinking like Sasuke.' Naruto grumbled as he realized that he was getting a bit too arrogant like his friend and quickly started going through some hand seals and slammed both of his hands to the ground...

"Earth Release: Earth Wall!" Naruto called out as a large wall of earth emerge from the ground in front of him to block the massive boulders flying toward him... and it managed to successfully do so while also generating a ton of dust during the impact.

'He can use earth magic as well?' Jura thought in surprise as he saw Naruto had successfully managed to block the boulders by summoning an earth wall. As the dust generated by the impact finally settled, he noticed the blonde looking at him with a face-splitting grin on his face.

"You sure know quite a lot of magic, Naruto-san," Jura remarked shaking his head in disbelief a little as he found the amount of magic that the blonde had shown completely absurd.

"Haha...you haven't seen anything yet, my friend." Naruto grinned mischievously at the Wizard Saint and wordlessly summoned 4 shadow clones a few meters away from him, who then gave a similar grin to the mage and rapidly started going through some hand seals simultaneously with their boss.

"You might want to block this one as well Jura," Naruto advised the now apprehensive earth mage, as the blonde and his clones completed the hand seals that they had been making. 'It's time to show the crowd the awesomeness of Naruto fucking Uzumaki!' The blonde thought in glee as he and the clones called out their techniques at the same time.

Jura was right...it was indeed the time to finally finish the match. He was going to show the Wizard Saint and the crowd a little taste of the gifts that he had received from his friends and the Old man Sage.

"Fire Release: Great Fireball technique!" Just like before, Naruto expelled a large stream of flames from his mouth which then took the shape of a huge fireball and headed straight at the Wizard Saint.

"Water Release: Tearing Torrent!" The first clone created a huge globe of water on his right hand which started to rapidly spiral like a small hurricane and fired it at the earth mage at a high speed.

"Wind Release: Air Bullet!" The second clone puffed up his cheeks a little and shot multiple small spheres of air from his mouth...like a bullet at the opponent.

"Earth Release: Mud bullets!" The third clone also puffed up his cheeks and shot multiple globes of mud at Jura.

"Lightning Release: Lightning Bolt!" The final clone raised his arm as it started to crackle with lightning, which then began to converge on his index finger into a small sphere and shot towards the shocked Wizard saint like a, well... lightning bolt.

"This...is insane..." Jura muttered in shock as he saw the numerous elemental spells heading toward him at a breakneck speed. He found it completely absurd that Naruto not only knew one or two elements of magic...but five! How can someone so young, master so many forms of magic? Moreover, his gut was telling him that the blonde knew even more forms of magic.

Now he understood why the blonde had advised him to block the spells...he would certainly be toasted if he got hit by all of them.

"Iron Rock Wall!" Jura cried out and quickly conjured a massive brick wall from the ground to defend himself, it was even larger than the one that he had summoned before to block the blonde's massive fireball technique.

(Line break)

"WHAT!? He can use lightning and water magic as well??" Jet screamed in shock as he along with the whole crowd saw the absurd amount of magic spells cast by Naruto and his clones. He knew about the blonde being able to use Fire, wind, and earth magic, but he didn't know that he could use lightning and water as well!

"Did you guys know abo...uh...my bad." Jet turned to his friends and sheepishly halted his question as he saw his teammates looking at him with deadpanned expressions.

"Let's not talk about it, okay?"

"uh...okay." Jet nervously nodded his head in understanding at Max's suggestion.

"Good."

Yes...good, indeed. It was better that they stop questioning or thinking about their guild mate's numerous abilities...for their own mental health.

Just a few seats away from the Team Fairy Tail spectator area, a certain White dragon slayer gritted his teeth in anger at the scene that they had all witnessed.

(Back to the fight)

*Boom!*

Jura breathe out a sigh of relief as his Iron Rock Wall was able to successfully block and defend him from the absurd amount of elemental spells cast and launched by the Fairy Tail mage. Though, his short moment of reprieve came to a sudden halt as he noticed a large shadow on the ground...

The Wizard Saint's eyes widened in alarm and quickly snapped his head above him and felt himself sweat in incredulity as he saw Naruto diving toward him from the air while holding a large blue orb in his right hand...possibly even larger than the blonde's own body, fully aiming to slam the orb on him.

'Those spells were just a diversion...' Jura, along with all the veterans and high-rank mages that were watching the blonde's attack gaped in realization...and they weren't wrong.

While Naruto had indeed used his five elemental jutsu as a means to show off a bit, he had also intended it to be a form of diversion to get an opening and finally end the match for good...in Naruto Uzumaki style of course.

Using the massive amount of dust that was generated by the crashing of his attacks on Jura's wall as a smokescreen, Naruto had quickly flung one of his tri-pronged Kunai over the wall and teleported to it, and then formed his second signature on his right hand...just a bit larger than its normal size.

Jura seeing the approaching 'ball of doom' from above quickly clapped both of his hands together in a praying gesture to defend himself as he knew that he wouldn't be able to dodge it on time.

"Rock Mountain!" Jura roared, prompting a large rock formation to emerge from the ground behind him, it then took the shape of a human clad in an Eastern-looking armor, complete with a helmet and with stone protrusions jutting out, with a frowning look and bright lights visible in the holes acting as its eyes.

Seeing the enormous defensive technique summoned by the Wizard Saint as a last-ditch attempt to stop his attack, Naruto let out an excited grin and yelled out slamming his massive Rasengan on top of the rocky formation head "Ultra Big Ball Rasengan!"

*BOOM!!*

The resulting clash between the techniques of the two powerful 'mages' was something to behold. As it resulted in a loud explosion of dust and rumbles as well as a large shockwave to surged over the surrounding area, sweeping back the hair and clothes of the shocked spectators.

(Line break)

"What the hell!?"

Some members of the Fairy Tail screamed in disbelief as they tried to stop themselves from flying away due to the force of the shock wave and gale generated by the explosion.

"Is Naruto alright!?"

"I'm not sure."

"Did he win!?"

"I hope so."

"Sit down! You idiot. We are also trying to see here!"

"Droy! You are blocking our view!"

"Argh! I can't see because of the dust!"

"Same here!"

"Reedus! have I ever mentioned that you have gotten quite large?"

"Oui!"

"Look! Everyone! the dust is finally clearing!"

As the dust finally settled down, every spectator in the stadium including the Fairy Tail members had their eyes widened in shock as they witnessed something, which they had never thought would have ever happened in their wildest dream.

"Un...Unbelievable! After a glorious battle between these two amazing mages! We finally have our winner of this match!" Chapati exclaimed/announced in shock seeing the result of the battle "The winner is..."

(With Naruto and Jura)

"...Naruto Uzumaki of Team Fairy Tail!!"

Naruto smiled sensing the crowd completely lose their mind at the result and heard his team and guild mates cheering his name in joy.

He couldn't fault them, even he would have felt the result completely impossible and surreal if he saw any other person beat Jura in a fight. As the Wizard Saint was by far the strongest person that he had the opportunity of meeting and fight in this world.

"I guess...I also lost this time as well."

Naruto glanced at the Wizard Saint, who was lying out on the ground on his back while staring at the sky. Unlike the blonde, Who only had a small trail of blood leaking from his forehead; the Wizard Saint looked as if he was run over by a horde of angry bulls. As he had multiple gashes all over his body and his monk robe was completely ripped in various places

Not to mention, the condition of the stadium field as a result of the battle. It reminded Naruto of the time when Madara had summoned a big-ass meteor from the sky to crush the allied forces. It wasn't the same, but it looked pretty close to him.

"It seems so..." Naruto chuckled as he heard the Wizard Saint groan in pain a little and knelt to help the mage, "By the way, I'm sorry for your robe."

Jura chuckled in amusement as well despite the pain that he was currently feeling all over his body, and placed his arm over the blonde shoulder; who was supporting him up on his feet.

"This was my favorite robe, you know?"

(Line Break)

(Honey bar, 7:15 pm)

"Seriously, Naruto. Do you know any other magic that we are not aware of!?"

"Hmm...I can fart glitters as well."

"Eh...? Really?"

"Of course, he is joking. You dolt!"

Naruto and the other Fairy Tail members laughed loudly in amusement, as they saw Laki hit Droy on the back of his head for believing such an obvious lie.

All the Fairy Tail guild members were now joyously celebrating today's event in a bar, called Honey bar, which was the closest bar that they could find near their lodging.

They had been here for the past three hours, laughing, singing, drinking, eating, chatting, and even fighting occasionally...all in all, it was a very Fairy Tail-like celebration.

Even Yajima and his restaurant staff members had joined them in the bar to join in on the celebration, for which the Fairy Tail members were quite thankful.

"I still can't believe that Naruto was able to defeat Jura-san today."

"Same here! Uh, not that I doubt Naruto's strength, but Jura-san is a freaking Wizard Saint!"

"Yeah!"

"Again, Naruto. No offense."

Yajima—who was sitting near Naruto— chuckled as he noticed the blonde twitch a bit in annoyance at the guild members' rambling and decided to speak up, not wanting to see the blonde beat up his guildmates.

"It might be hard to believe," Yajima spoke up getting the attention of all the members, "But Naru-chan is quite a strong lad. I dare say, he is without a doubt at the level of some of the highest-ranked Wizard Saints."

The guild members gaped in disbelief, upon hearing the veteran mage's declaration, while the blonde puffed up his chest a little in pride after hearing the old man's compliment.

"Yajima-san, Is Naruto that strong!?"

"Oi...Oi...why are you guys all talking like I'm not here?" Naruto glared in annoyance, though he was mostly annoyed by his friends doubting the old man's statement about his strength.

Yajima laughed as he saw the guild members simply ignore the blonde's glare, "Yes. I have seen some of the Wizard Saints' members' abilities in action when I was in the Magic Council and apart from the top 4 rank seats, in my opinion, Naru-chan can certainly win against them in a fight."

The members felt their jaws hit the ground

at the old man's bold statement. Even Macao and Wakaba, who were uninterestedly listening to the conversation couldn't believe what they had just heard.

They knew that their senior mage was not pulling their legs, and was also aware that his opinion about the Wizard saint's strength and Naruto's strength was not a false claim. As he was not only a former member of the Magic Council, who certainly had a part in choosing the Wizard Saint candidates; but he was also the only one who somewhat knew about the blonde's full magical abilities.

"Damn! I knew that Naruto was strong...but that strong!"

"Naruto! We are sorry for doubting you! Please forgive us!!" The guild members that had been voicing out their disbelief of Jura's defeat, bowed and apologized to their guild mate.

"Whatever. Just don't question my awesomeness ever again! Okay?" Naruto huffed as he folded his hand on his chest and scowled at his friends. Though, internally he was dancing in glee after seeing the shocked faces of his friends.

"Okay!!"

"Oh...by the way, Macao-kun," Yajima called the guild master as he remembered something.

"Yes, Yajima-san."

"I don't know whether you have been informed about this or not. But, according to the organizers, the reserved member of the participating team along with the member that hadn't participated in any of the games so far, is required to participate in tomorrow's first game. So make sure that your reserve member is ready for that."

"Oh..okay. I didn't know about that. Thank you for informing me of that." Macao thanked the old man for the information, getting a nod in return, and tried to look where Vijeeter was.

"Vijeeter." The guild master called as he saw the reserve member of Team Fairy sitting on a nearby table, calmly chugging down a glass of beer.

"Yes, Master."

"You are going to be participating in the first game tomorrow. So, make sure that you don't drink too much."

"Eh...? really?" Vijeeter nervously asked and after seeing the guild master nod in confirmation, he quickly chugged down another glass of beer to calm down his nerves.

"I just told you not to drink too much!"

"Ahh...sorry!"

Just a few tables away...

"Argh...Even after the wins that we had today, we are still in 4th place." Jet groaned in dismay.

"Yeah...I just hoped that we will be able to perform well tomorrow and at least get to the top 3 rankings." Max said.

"Top 3? you guys do know that we still have two games left right?" Laki implored adjusting her glasses a little, "If we manage to win those two games we could easily win the whole thing!"

"Laki-chan is right," Naruto said as he walked to their table with Asuka sitting on his shoulder, who was happily sipping orange juice from a juice box "The game is still not over yet, so stop thinking like that. We can still win the whole thing."

"But, Naruto...We are 37 points behind Team Sabertooth, so how can we win the whole thing?" Alzack asked the blonde as he was not quite sure about the chances of them winning.

Naruto was about to respond to the question but he was beaten by the little girl on his shoulder.

"Hmm...Dad, If you three had performed well we wouldn't have been behind Team sable..sabertooth, you know?"

"BWAHAHA!"

The whole bar erupted in laughter as they heard the little girl's snippy comment. While the three people that had been at the receiving end of the comment gaped in disbelief.

"Asuka-chan! How can you say that!?"

"Please! stop reminding us of that!"

"Asuka-chan! how can you be so mean to your father?"

The little girl just poked her tongue out mischievously at the three distraught men as the whole bar continued to laugh at their expense.

No matter, whatever the situation they were in, Fairy Tail was always going to be lively at the end of the day. It was just in their nature.

*The end*

00000000000000000

A/N: I know the ending sucked. But I couldn't find a better way to end it as I was out of ideas and got lazy as well.

Just a heads up; Jura is referring to Naruto's jutsu as 'spells' as he thinks that they are magic spells. He doesn't know that they are jutsu.

The next chapter will mark the end of the Grand Magic games...I'll try my best to end it. IDK.

By the way, I don't know how many of you like one piece but I have been planning on writing a NarutoXonepiece fic for quite a while now and I wanted to have some of your opinions on its premise. Don't worry I will be updating my current fic every week unless I have exams or assignments.

Premise:

A year after the 4th shinobi war, Naruto decides to go to the land of whirlpools, wanting to reconnect and know more about his Uzumaki heritage from his mother's side. Where he would find a strange blood seal— which would have a mention of 'Raftel'(the last island in the one piece world where the one piece is located)— under a destroyed bunker and after smearing his blood on it due to his curiosity and stupidity, even after Kurama's warning, he will get transported to the one piece universe in a puff of smoke. So, he will journey across the ocean to find the island(Raftel) that was mentioned in the seal, which he thinks is his last hope to find a way back to his world. During the journey, he will become a pirate(unintentionally, of course) and do his usual thing...saving people, princesses, countries, and islands, while becoming a major pain in the a* of the Navy and Gorosei.

The Timeline: He will arrive just 1 week before the marine fort war, on an Island called Tequila Wolf in the East Blue(The island that Robin was transported by Kuma). There he will defeat all the soldiers slaving the people, liberating the slaves, and will begin his journey from there. He will do all his Naruto-Esque things as well as 'finding' crewmates during the two years that the Straw hats pirates were separated. He won't be 'nerfed' in this story like my current one. He will have Kurama's chakra right from the beginning of the story.

What do you guys think about this premise? If you have any opinions or suggestions about this chapter as well as the premise, feel free to PM me or leave a review.

Thank you. bye.
