First THANKS to all those who spend their time on this story and giving reviews. If you have any questions please ask and just don't abandon this story for that. I would try my best to clear your doubt.
Secondly, I would like to say that some readers were asking why Naruto is so much weak. Well, he was fighting one of the Wizard Saint and after Kyuubi stopped its chakra, he can't use it. Its true if Jose didn't have that kind of magic (that magic was self made) fight would have long and Jose wouldn't have won that easily. But still Naruto forced him to get serious and angry. As for Hiraishin, I have made it like faster than teleportation magic but still it not impossible to use that kind of magic and for that they don't require any markings also.
Some answers to reviews
leopk4003 : So, you made Naruto an ex-root anbu, gave him the sharingan, and also practice mage arts and also train for few years but is still weak? You do know that because of flying thunder god Minato was a feared ninja right.
He trained for few years but also was idle for couple of years when he came to Earthland which put him into backfoot also. As for mage arts, he never was good in them and after getting chakra back he stopped, only continued reading and practicing magic related to seals and runes. Also you can see being a wind mage he can't fly like that Eisenwald dude.
When he Root ANBU, he was just a kid also. And as for Hiraishin, he can't use it as good as Minato yet especially in battle as he can't mark quickly. And also teleportation magic is present there so Hiraishin was not new for Jose.
MineEngineer : This is nice, however Naruto seems a little bit weak, having Sharingan and enhanced by Kurama's chakra at least Naruto should be pretty strong. And Kurama could even sharing some knowledge about jutsu or the Sage, so Naruto could re-create something. I doubted those wizard saints are on par with Kage level shinobi or any S-Ranked ninja. I bet even Kakashi capable defeating Jose. Those mages indeed strong, but ninja were trained in the art of killing.
He was forced to stop Kurama's chakra, if that wouldn't have been the case the fight wouldn't have ended so quickly. As for power of mages, i guess they are pretty strong themselves. And Naruto was fighting here head on, not like any assassinations or secret killing.
Uchiha Zeref : so you give Naruto itachi's mangekyou power
In one eye, for other you have to wait.
Chapter 14 - Her Strawberry Cake
Naruto landed on one of the tree branches on the edge of a small cliff. He eyed the large building on the foothold of cliff as he touched the hilt of his sword. 'This building was supposed to be hidden by magic'. Not that it would have mattered to him, but even without his Sharingan activated he could clearly see it, the guild Phoenix Fire.
He surveyed the surroundings as he narrowed his eyes at the lying bodies here and there, may be alive. As soon as the questions started building up the answer came with a large blast. The blast blew one wall as two men came flying out. Naruto looked at the said men, one was short person with red hair. The face was rather large and inspite of all the bruises on his body and cloths, his flat nose was shining like a star. Naruto could tell he wouldn't be able to get up. Next to him was lying a blond boy, maybe fifteen or sixteen years old.
Few others followed them outside as they stood in front of them in defensive position. With two new men and three females, Naruto counted them to be seven in total, all of them heavily injured and bruised.
Naruto put some chakra into his ears as he tried to hear.
"Ichiya-sensei, Eve are you both alright?" asked a black haired tanned man.
With a hiss of pain they nodded.
It was a difficult position for anybody working in a team, whether to send the remaining who can move with the injured and become the scapegoat himself or die all together. This was one of the reasons Naruto always despised working in a team. Team seven was different, after all there was no danger of occurring such condition, theoretically.
Making his mind he said to his other partner, "Hibiki and Mermaid Heel, take the injured and go. I will stop them and buy you some time."
"Are you mad, I am not running away leaving you behind." Replied now known Hibiki.
"Y-Yes, we are mermaid heel, we are not going to run..."
"This is not about you running for your life. Their lives also depend on that." The black haired man said, "There's no reason for all of us to die today."
They knew what he meant as Hibiki replied once again, "I will come back after leaving them some place safe. Try not to die by then, Ren."
Ren smiled as he motioned them to go.
"Where are you going 'Legal mages'?"
Naruto turned towards the newcomer, coming out from the broken wall. Four of them, also bruised and injured but less than them.
"You come to our guild, Phoenix Fire, attacks us and think of leaving alive?" Laughed the Phoenix mage as he ran to stop the leaving mages but was stopped by Ren, "Arial Phose."
Dodging his attack Phoenix mage jumped backwards. "You still have some magic left in you? "You all were sure strong. Beaten all the useless scums of our guild and after that defeated four out of us Eight Wings of Phoenix."
"Heh. If only we wouldn't have met with that group of Vulcans, the situation would have been different." Ren smirked.
Phoenix mage laughed sadistically, "It doesn't matter now, after killing you, it will be fun to hunt them."
'Not on my watch' Naruto jumped down, free falling towards them.
Panting heavily Ren was thinking just one thing, 'Somehow have to buy some time.'
The laughing mage charged towards Ren with his scythe glowing. Before he could swing his scythe, he felt a strong pain as a knee shattered his jaws and was send flying. The remaining mages looked at the attacker, completely hidden in the black dress with armour plate in front and forearm protectors with a sword attached on the back with a black hilt. The most distinctive feature was the mask, the fox mask.
Naruto looked at Ren over his shoulder, "That mark on your jacket. You are from Blue Pegagus. What are you doing here?"
Ren with taking big breaths replied, "I am glad you took one of them out, but can this wait till we are safe?"
Naruto looked back at the three mages in front of him preparing their attacks, "Very well. This shouldn't take long." As he used his shunshin to disappear, it shocked the mages and seconds later screams resonated the forests. The already weak mages were no match against Naruto.
After gaining all the information from the mages he appeared in front of Ren, surprising him enough to make him stumble and fell. "Who are you?"
"It doesn't matter. I asked you a question. What are you doing here?"
"We received this request from council where he had to team up with Mermaid Heel and stop this guild." Ren replied standing up.
'Mermaid heel huh' Naruto was brought back from his thoughts when Ren asked, "Why are you here? And why the mask?"
"Same as you. To destroy this guild and to get some information. As for mask, I doesn't matter."
"You came alone for something like this? Either you are incredibly strong or incredibly stupid."
Naruto decided to leave before he heard someone coming, his instincts kicked in as he gripped the hilt of his sword.
"Hibiki? Where are they?" asked Ren. Seeing him to be a Blue Pegasus's mage, Naruto let the sword go.
"They are alright, who is he?" Hibiki turned towards Naruto. After listening to the story from Ren he again continued, "Thankyou. You saved our lives. If Ren would have been killed, they would have come for us for sure. How can we repay you?"
Without caring to reply Naruto turned to walk but was stopped by Hibiki, "Seriously, tell us something to do. It's not in Trimen nature not to repay others."
Stopping in his tracks and what it seemed as he was thinking, finally he replied, "You can do one thing for me."
Days passed and slowly the Guild building was completed which was a safe bet to say that this was grander than the previous one. With its own swimming pool and outdoor café, it was much better to spend time there, not that it mattered to Naruto.
Naruto entered the guild as he moved directly towards Makarov after spotting him. Motioning him to come to side, Makarov followed him, knowing very well that he might have some serious things to tell. No matter how cheerful Makarov was in front of everyone, he knew Naruto means business everytime.
Seeing no one was close enough to hear he continued, "Have you heard about Oracion Seis?"
"A dark guild made of some very strong mages. I have heard about them."
"Six to be exact. They are on the move. I don't know there location as of yet. I asked half of the guilds they have under them, but no one of them know. But they are upto something big, related to Zeref resurrection."
Makarov's eye widen as he put two and two together, "Don't tell me you are going after them alone?"
"Since I don't know about their location or power, I am not stupid enough to fight six of them head on. If I would have known about them or their guild location, I would have taken them out one by one."
"So why are you telling me?"
"I just thought I should let you know." Unknown to Makarov he had a motive, he knew Makarov was not going to sit idle, most probably he would contact Council or other guilds. And from there he would get his back-up.
"Anyway I would be leaving."
"Oh stop. Just stay for some time, this new guild is good." Makarov said with a big grin.
"I will come tomorrow for seeing this guild. I would like to have some rest." He turned and started to leave.
Makarov sighed, 'How should I tell him this without getting this new guild getting damaged?'
"Naruto, I would like to tell you something." He said sheepishly. "But just listen before doing anything."
Naruto turned and faced him.
"Actually you see, we have two new members. One of them is a water mage, Juvia Locksar."
Naruto narrowed his eyes, 'Juvia Locksar? Element 4?'
"And the other one is, just don't destroy anything. Ok?"
Thinking where that was going, he closed his eyes as his lips turned into a line, "Gajeel Redfox. Isn't it?"
Makarov nodded, he knew the dam was going to break anytime and that time came when Naruto slammed into the table on which he was taking support. With a large sound, the table was destroyed completely way beyond any repair. Whole guild turned to see them and ignored after seeing their master was involved.
"Are you kidding me? You let him join Fairy Tail? I don't know whether I would stop myself from killing him the next time I see him. How could you allow him anywhere near Levy?" The rage in his voices was filled with so much killing intent, Makarov was not used to something like that.
"Easy-easy Naruto. I asked Levy, she had no problem with that."
"What was she supposed to say you, 'Yes I have problem in him joining the guild'? Don't you know how much naïve she is?"
"You think I wouldn't know when one of my children is saying something without any meaning?"
Without giving any reply Naruto started leaving but stopped when Makaorv asked him where he was going.
"I am going to ask Levy myself"
Without saying anything more Naruto disappeared in a yellow flash as Mirajane and few other joined Makarov seeing him walking back, "Master what was that all about?" Makarov just sighed, "Nothing, give me a beer."
As Naruto left, one red haired mage was radiating such intense killing intent that made nearby mages flinch.
"E-Erza are you alright?" one mage asked with fear clearly visible in his voice.
"He will pay for that." She said as she slammed her hand on the table to break that one aslo.
After appearing outside Naruto searched for the location of Levy from the Hiraishin lacrima he had given to her. Locating her close he decided not to startle passers-by by using Hiraishin.
He reached the park and watched from the distance as the Shadow gear's boy duo was beating Gajeel. He knew Gajeel was not fighting back. He moved his eyes to Laxus who also started beating him. He scoffed after listening him saying how he was pissed because they damaged their guild and its reputation.
He again moved his eyes towards his surrogate sister who was clearly afraid and wanted Laxus to stop. And when they asked him to stop, Laxus replied with a lightening.
Shadow gear's eyes widen at the incoming lightening, but they couldn't see a yellow flash among the blinding lightening. Naruto appeared in front of them as he swayed his wind chakra covered hand stopping the lightening, wind acting as a barrier to protect his skin effectively to some extent as the remaining damage was taken care by Kurama.
"You are scaring others." He said simply.
"You again?" Laxus glared at him as he started to leave.
"You rejected to help when the guild needed you and now you come caring about the guild?" Naruto remarked. Levy pulled his shirt and asked him to stop.
Laxus looked at Naruto over his shoulder, "Non guild members should not put their legs in guild's matter."
After Laxus left Naruto looked at the Gajeel who was close to them in attempt of stopping the Laxus's attack.
"Naruto-nii you are back." Levy chirped to joy as she hugged him. Breaking the hug after some time Naruto smiled back at her.
"You are going to stay for some time. Right?" She asked making puppy eyes.
"Of course" He replied ruffling her hair. "I have something to talk to you. Come on, I was on my way to grandma, I hope you don't have any job right now?" She nodded and followed him.
Back with the duo of Jet and Droy, they were little furious least to say as he took her from there. And to make the situation worse he was not a real brother of her and just right now he acted so cool in front of them.
Sighing both, they decided to get back to guild.
Couple of days passed and Naruto was spending most of his time in the guild, mostly because in hope of finding something about Oracion Seis from master and also he just had come after destroying several branches of Oracion Seis. As per his knowledge each member had their own following guilds, well not any more. He had already taken care of more than half of them.
So he decided it was time to see how the guild was doing and also guilds are sometimes a great source of information. So he spent his time their reading some books. Most of the guild members decided not to disturb him as his cold attitude made it clear when few mages tried to befriend him.
On one table were seating two female mages, one blond haired and other brown holding a large mug of alcohol. The blond mage said, "Say Cana, who is that person? He's always seating there alone. Is he a Fairy Tail member?"
"Nah. But he used to be, but left few years ago. He is Levy's brother, well not a real brother."
"Levy's brother huh. Why did he left? Was he weak?"
At that time Erza decided to join the conversation, "Well we only saw him fighting once, when he joined the guild. His magic was maximum around average, but…" She continued remembering his fight, "but he is not a joke in fighting. Without having strong magic like Natsu, he almost defeated and killed him. But eventually master decided to end the match there as draw."
Lucy gulped after knowing someone could win without having strong magic and at the same time it gave her hope, hope of becoming strong mage without having destructive powers like that of Natsu and Gray.
Erza continued, "To be correct, his fighting was something you can't get to see easily. His every movement was so precise and calculated, also he used his surrounding very well."
"Then why did he left?"
"We don't know the reason. We just know he started doing some trading after he lost Susan."
"Susan?"
"She was also a Fairy Tail mage and his sensei."
Cana decided to interject at that, "Hey why is he always so gloomy, I think he also feels loneliness but afraid to approach to new people."
"I don't think so, I think he just wants to be alone." Replied Lucy.
"Why don't we test that? Someone go and try to talk with him. Let's see if he still ignore the beauties of Fairy Tail." Cana completed with a wink.
Waving her hand Lucy said, "No-no, we shouldn't do that. I am feeling bad for him."
"Oh come on, it will be fun."
"There's nothing wrong with some fun I guess" Erza continued with an evil aura, "Besides, he has to pay for what he did."
Both girls were busy in wondering what she meant as Erza went to his table only to sit on his opposite side. Deciding to ignore her he continued reading his book.
"What are you reading?"
Without saying a word he closed the book as he showed her the cover and again got indulge in reading. Getting a tick mark she remained silent for some time and then turned to look at Lucy and Cana who were giving her thumbs-up.
"So Levy said you still practice sometimes."
After a minute he nodded, still keeping his eyes on his book.
"That time I saw you with a sword. Are you still a swordsman? I am also a swordswoman."
For the first time he opened his mouth but it only increased Erza's irritation, "Person who carries sword doesn't mean he or she is a swordsman or swordswoman."
Getting a tick on her forehead she asked, "You are telling about yourself or me?"
"Who knows?"
"That's it" she stood up as she slammed her fist on the table. "First you made me drop my cake and now you insult me?"
He closed his book as he looked at her with a smirk, "So that's what it is. But I still don't know when I 'made' you drop your cake."
"That day when you broke that table. In surprise I dropped it."
"Isn't that your mistake?"
Erza glared at him, "You want to say that again?"
Naruto heard someone closer to them saying, "He wasted her cake. He's a dead man. Call the master."
He only knew one way to stop that before it could get anymore unbearable. Sighing he said, "If I treat you with a cake, will you leave me alone?"
Once again he heard someone saying, "He is trying to bribe her with a cake. He sure wants to die today." After looking at Erza frozen they continued, "Look, she is angry so much that she can't move."
After some time she spoke shyly which was just above a whisper as she looked sideways at the ground, "strawberry cake."
"Very well. Today's not a good day for me, so may be later." Saying he went outside.
After getting her composure and looking at him going she roared, "Stop right there you idiot." But he was long gone and she couldn't find him outside the guild. 'Where did he vanish?'
From the guild's roof he looked down at her and sighed, 'What trouble I have put myself into.'
