Fairy Tail's Six Paths Sage Jinchuuriki
Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto or Fairy Tail. Naruto is owned by Masashi Kishimoto and Fairy Tail is owned by Hiro Mashima respectively. Certain elements of this story were inspired by other Naruto/Fairy Tail crossovers.
AN1: OK I want to be clear: If Naruto wanted to, he could've beaten Erza easily ok? However, if would not change the Guild's opinion of him and he might be seen as a jerk or power hungry if he did that. I even added the line of Makarov saying that S-class have to be able to adapt. Naruto only rose his only powers when Erza did to prove he was not only powerful but also smart in how he fights.
Erza is powerful but Naruto is still far stronger with him holding back A LOT while Erza basically maxed out and still lost decisively.
BTW there was one reviewer (they know who they are) who criticized me for having Naruto 'suddenly' get Devil Slayer magic in the 7 years gap… seriously? You do know I put Naruto is OP in the actual summary, right? Devil Slayer magic is NEVER once said to have to be taught be demons (Silver just learns it somehow after his resurrection while Gray gets magic transferred in canon). Sorry for the rant but reviews like that make me sigh. Naruto learned his Devil Slayer magic from a book with Mavis helping him out. (He got a good enough gasp in the 1 year to defeat Jura and Jellall for his S-class test )
BTW I don't work on chapters on the weekend as I am simply too busy so I post chapters when I got them ready. So, it could be quick or long depends on the week.
Chapter 8 Naruto the S-class wizard and his House is revealed?!
When Erza's Purgatory Armour was destroyed luckily she automatically requipped back into her normal skirt and armour so she was not naked when she finally collapsed.
"The winner is Naruto Uzumaki!" Cana sputtered thinking of the bets she would lose as she had bet on Erza as well. Several members were still trying to pick up their jaws from the ground from the upset. Erza was considered on par if not stronger then Mira with only Laxus, Gildarts and the Master himself being stronger inside the guild. Yet this newcomer who was rumoured to S-class had beaten her with little to no injuries. Mystogan was also another S-class wizard but since nobody had even seen his face it was rather difficult for the guild to rank him in strength.
Nobody was happier than Lucy at Naruto's victory. Not only did the guy she like win she had won enough money for several months of rent! 'Take that for betting against Naruto just because he was new!' Lucy thought victoriously thinking her new friend Levy was right to stay out of it instead of betting for the simple sake of betting.
Most of the guild was now weeping at their lost bets on what they thought was going to be a sure win for them. Elfman and Lissanna were happier their new 'brother' won more then the money while Mira being fairly wealthy didn't care at all about the bet.
Naruto offered the tired Erza a hand which the redhead graciously accepted with a smile. "Thanks for the fight!" Naruto told her with a grin.
"It was indeed an amazing spar Naruto." Erza replied warmly as the guild walked towards the S-class wizards.
Makarov coughed getting the guilds attention. "Listen up you brats!" Makarov yelled. "Naruto fairly beat Erza in a spar thus proving without a doubt his S-Class ranking!" Makarov announced as the guild cheered although to vary degrees of enthusiasm. "However, for the rest of the guild I will have to share my disappointment." Maakrov said with a sigh as everyone looked shocked. Naruto frowned having a n idea where this was going while Erza stayed quiet.
"Let me make this clear: Whether someone is a S-class or not is NOT a popularity contest." Makarov announced sternly as everyone looked confused at him.
"What the hell are you talking about Gramps?!" Natsu shouted back as Happy shouted as well.
"What Masters means this fight should not have been necessary." Erza responded with a glare making several wizards flinch.
"What do you mean Erza?" Levy asked politely with a confused look.
"Master decides who becomes S-class in our guild based on their merit and his decisions NOT based on whether the guild members like the wizard or not." Erza explained as Makarov nodded.
"My mind was made up to let Naruto keep his rank before any fight was sanctioned. I merely indulged this fight because Naruto agreed to it as a way to get the guild to trust him." Makarov said coolly as the guild looked down in guilt. "Next time you youngsters question my decisions you better have a good reason for it!" Makarov yelled as almost everyone in the guild flinched.
"That's enough Master. I think they get the point." Naruto said with a chuckle as the guild looked at him in surprise.
"Wait you're not mad we mistrusted you and wanted Erza to win?" Natsu said bluntly as everyone else gave him an incredulous look for his lack of tact.
"Of course not! Why would I be mad?" Naruto asked with a shrug. "I mean you guys grew up with Erza right I know wherever you are you have to prove yourself." Naruto said nonchalantly as he flashed the guild a warm smile. This made the respect for the S-class blonde skyrocket at his cool attitude and friendly nature.
"Well put Naruto." Erza praised as Makarov nodded his head. "Naruto you held back in our fight correct?" Erza asked Naruto as most of the guild looked gobstopped at the knowledge.
"Well yeah. It was just a spar, right? You held back too right Erza?" Naruto asked in a confused tone of voice.
'You got to be kidding me?! Naruto actually held back and still beat Erza decisively? How powerful is this guy?' Cana thought to herself in disbelief.
"No, I fought as hard as I could and you still beat me even at my best." Erza humbly admitted as she smiled in defeat.
"Well there will always be somebody stronger than you. Nobody can claim to be the best as there will always be people stronger than we are now that makes us strive to be better." Naruto remarked wisely as some of the guild looked at him in awe at his knowledge. Naruto was secretly thinking back in his previous world he always continued to fight stronger and stronger opponents no matter how strong he got and knew this world would not be different in that regard.
"Master don't you have the Guild Master meeting you are suppose to be at?" Erza asked Makarov changing the subject.
"Yeah… I guess I will take the train to Clover Town later today." Makarov said in a sheepish tone of voice having forgotten about it in the excitement.
"Hey Naruto-kun while Master is here why don't we check out your place!" Mira suggested with a beaming smile as Naruto rubbed his head in embarrassment at the entire guild attention.
"Yeah man you did make us that promise." Gray snickered as the guild chanted at Naruto. He decided to leave his feelings for Naruto's magic for later and to just enjoy having fun with the new guild member.
"Yeah I guess I did promise so everyone follow me!" Naruto announced as they started walking to the forest outside of Magnolia. Everyone kept looking around to spot some kind of home but to their surprise it seemed like they were walking into a dense forest.
"Uh Naruto? Are you sure you are going the right way? All I see are trees." Lucy asked awkwardly as the guild started getting anxious.
"Yup almost there!" Naruto announced as he stopped in front of a bunch of trees together. "Here it is." Naruto mumbled as he quickly put his hand out and unbeknownst to the others had done several hand signs rapidly so no one could see them.
"What is Naruto doing?" Lucy whispered to Natsu who looked even more confused.
All a sudden a flash of light appeared and when everyone eyes blinked back into focus everyone jaws dropped since where once was a hunch of trees was now a house that looked more like a mansion! It was simple design with white paint and several doors and windows but looked easily bigger than the guild hall or any of the places the wizards were currently living in!
"I guess welcome to my home in Magnolia town everyone!" Naruto announced as he chuckled at the astonished looks on everyone face including Erza. Makarov and Mira.
"YOU LIVE HERE?!" The guild universally shouted at once.
"Well yeah?" Naruto responded awkwardly not sure how to answer back.
"When you said you had a home for yourself, I thought it would be a piece of crap like Natsus house but this is a bloody mansion!" Gray stuttered as Natsu grew angry.
"What did you say about my house Stripper?" Natsu yelled grabbing Gray until two quick bonks from Erza quickly ended the feud.
"I got to admit I am rather impressed with your house too. How did you get something like this?" Erza asked with genuine curiosity as Naruto shrugged.
"I mean I used the money mostly for supplies and the permits but this place I basically built on my own. Every time I finished a job I would come here and keep going till I finished it a few weeks before I joined the guild." Naruto said nonchalant as everyone looked incredulously at him.
"Choosing not to tell them about your hundreds of clones working on this place while you designed it?" Kuruma teased as Naruto pouted in his mind.
'Shut up!' Naruto thought back not wanting to admit wanting to look cool in front of his guild mates. Naruto noticed while everyone was admitting his house Levy looked at him with stars in her eyes. "Yeah levy what up?" Naruto asked as he decided he didn't like referring to people by honorifics unless they asked for it. He swore he saw Jet and Droy mumbling about getting too 'personal with their Levy' but he ignored them.
"Naruto you used Rune magic to hide your house, right?" Levy asked in amazement. Naruto swore she looked like a puppy so he resisted the urge to pat her on the head as eh could swear he felt killer intent from Mira but he thought that was impossible.
"Yeah I put a special variation over my house for protection and cloaking so unless you know where it is and have my specific magic you can't get into it." Naruto informed as Erza nodded her head seeing the logic into wanting to protect your home. Naruto secretly also adding some Uzumaki style sealing arts to the mix to prevent a rune type wizard or solid script style wizard from overriding the seals/runes. With both magic and chakra in the array it was impossibly for anyone else to activate or enter his home without his permission.
"Why would you need something like that for your home? Its pretty far out here." Loke noted gesturing to the forest around them.
"To prevent people from breaking and entering." Naruto replied flatly seeing Lucy give a glare to the shrugging Natsu. "Let's go in." Naruto told everyone as he opened the door to his house.
The house looked amazing to everyone eyes. It had a huge kitchen with full appliances and fully stocked pantry. It also had a large living room with multiple tables and chairs for a lot of guests and they could see at least several bedrooms and bathrooms. It short it looked like this house was built for a family more then a single person.
Natsu was about to run to the pantry and start digging in until a hand grabbed his arm and held tight. He could see the annoyed look on Naruto's face. "Don't even think about eating all my food Natsu." Naruto warned him a dark aura surrounding him.
Natsu was about to protest but Naruto interrupted. "Look I made this place so my guild family could hang out here once in a while." Naruto admitted getting touched looks from the guild. "However, this is still my home and I worked my butt off to make it look nice and have plenty of food so I don't want people trashing this place ok?" Naruto asked with a sigh letting Natsu go.
Natsu frowned but a glare from Erza made him relent as Naruto lead them back outside. "Look I am sure we can hang out here some time but Master has to catch his train and it is starting to get late so lets all head back the guild hall ok?" Naruto asked as Makarov eyes widened as he realized the last train to Clover Town was leaving in a less then an hour. So, he bid everyone a farewell and ran to the train station in a hurry.
Everyone got abck tot eh guild in a good mood as Erza pulled Naruto aside. "Naruto I would like you to accompany me on a spying mission. Would be acceptable?" She asked with her arms underneath her chest.
"Sure lets go! It should be fun! Bye everyone!" Naruto waved goodbye to everyone as he left with Erza.
"There he goes without a care in the world." Lucy said with a sigh and giggle. She secretly thought both Erza and Naruto were amazing and incredibly powerful.
Naruto learned from Erza she had heard a tip several members of Eisenwald were meeting a pub to discuss plans. Erza was too well known to just causally enter the bar so she thought if she changed her outfit and had Naruto pretend to be her boyfriend, they could eardrop without trouble.
Naruto stuttered "Boyfriend!" to the confused Erza's raised eyebrow.
"Yes? Will that be a problem? We are both single so pretending we are a couple should be no problem, right?" Erza asked as she starting tying her hair into pigtails so she would not be so recognizable.
"I guess not." Naruto murmured as he got control of his blush. Naruto knew Erza was extremely attractive but he was not looking to be in a real relationship right now despite the weird situation with Mira. They had both went into a clothing store to buy some disguise getups and change.
Naruto wore causal shorts, vest and sunglasses for his disguise. Erza had gone with shorts, sandals and a tank top which Naruto noted made more of her beautiful skin was shown then her normal armour.
They entered the bar and ordered some drinks and went next to a table where they thought the Eisenwald were and pretended to be holding onto each other while secretly listening in on the conversations. They learned Erigor was leading the attack on Oshibana Town and they had a 'little surprise planned'. Naruto and Erza knew they had their work for them. Erza was up for attacking the members now but Naruto argued that even if they arrested these minor members the big guys would still be active. He noted it was better for the small guys to lead the to the rest of the group and they could arrest them all. Erza agreed and praised his smart thinking as they headed back to the guild with a game plan.
AN2: ok I was going to do the Eisenwald chapter now but I realized I promised his home so I had to add this in this chapter. A smaller weaker chapter but it's the aftermath after the BIG fight. His home I dunno is big but I could not describe it justly so use your imagination ok?
Erza and Naruto were acting as Erza doesn't see anyone more then family right now and Naruto is confused about romance in general.
