AN1: Fairy Tail 100 Year quest 109 was released May 31/22 and YES it does show the canon explanation of what Laxus Dragon Lacrima is. My story and explanation were released like over a year before that so obvious I had no idea. Naruto's teacher will not be that Thunder Dragon King so Laxus and his Lightning Dragon Slayer magic will not be connected to that Dragon King. (Although I will point out that God Serena ALSO has a Lightning dragon Lacrima. Just saying.
Yes I know the AN has born reposted but I know people will claim I intentionally changing canon to make Naruto 'special' hence why I will just repost the top one for awhile (so people can see I am explaining a plot point).
Fairy Tail 100 Year quest 115 was released. It showed that God Serena survived and the last three of his Dragon Lacrima-Diamond(stone), Flash(Light), dark (unnamed) along with his established other 5-Lightning (thunder), Cavern (Earth), Purgatory (Fire), Sea King (Water), Gale (wind).
For context in this story God Serena will have refined organ (heart) of the Lightning Dragon King (like Laxus did have in canon) and scales/bones from the other Dragons. Hence his Lightning Dragon Slayer Magic will be in general more effective then Laxus but less than Naruto's (as Serena will have a refined organ rather then just some leftover scales enchanted.) And just because Serena and Kirin (the 5th dragon slayer) have their magic from the "Lightning Dragon King" does not mean that Naruto own (through first generation) Lightning Dragon Slayer magic is inferior (a dragon does not need to be king to be strong after all).

AN1: There are a few more 'ship' like moments in this chapter which is showing this is a part two of the series. Naruto isn't as dense as people like to make him out to be he just didn't act on all the feelings he had before.
Chapter 67 The New Guild Master
"You're back?! How?" The rest of the group stayed behind shouted as they pointed at the Tenrou group.
"Well… You see…. Lucy do you want to explain?" Erza suggested to Lucy whose head dropped in resignation.
"Why do I have to explain? I mean shouldn't it be Master's job to explain?" Lucy whined but her face turned to fear when Erza turned to her with a neutral expression.
"Sorry did you say something Lucy?" Erza asked as Lucy rapidly shook her head.
"No no! I would be happy to explain!" Lucy stated with a nervous chuckle as sweat ran down the back of her neck as she started to shudder in fear.
"Same old Erza. Glad to see she hasn't changed. Isn't that right Alzack-kun?" A much more mature and bustier Bisca whispered to Alzack who just chuckled quietly.
"Yeah, honey that isn't really a great thing…" A taller Alzack whispered notably checking to see if Erza was listening getting a giggle from Bisca.
"Alright so it all started when we went to Tenrou Island for the S-class Trials but soon things went wrong." Lucy started as the group that stayed behind looked at her giving her their full attention.
One long series of explanations later….
"Oh wow… To think that you guys had to fight off Grimoire Heart while on Tenrou Island!" Max yelled as he shuddered at the thought.
"So that is what two of the three big bads of the Ballam Alliance? I shudder to think what bad luck Fairy Tail must have to have to face them both in the same lifetime let alone within a year apart!" Reedus noted as he quickly scribbled on his notepad a triangle with the names of Grimoire Heart and Oración Seis, crossed out showing they were dispatched by Fairy Tail. The last part of the triangle had a question mark and the word 'Tartarus' on it.
"Yup! You are telling me! I never thought I would have to fight any guilds let alone dark guilds when I joined Fairy Tail! I thought that Fairy Tail would be rambunctious but not have this kind of bad luck!" Lucy whined as Mira gave her a sympathetic look as Wendy and Erza patted her on the shoulders.
"To think the head of Grimoire Heart, Hades was actually our second Master and one of the Co-founders of Fairy Tail! Talk about a scumbag! He goes against everything Fairy Tail stands for!" Bisca hissed as everyone else gained cold looks when they thought of Hades and what he did on Tenrou Island.
"That's enough! We don't need to go that far in mocking the dead!" Naruto snapped showing un characteristic sign of anger much to everyone surprise.
"Hey! What's your problem? I thought you of all people would be angry at Hades actions especially as you apparently lived on Tenrou Island for 7 years!" Wakaba asked in disbelief.
"Yeah, you are the one ended up kicking Hade's ass and showing him who is the real Fairy Tail!" Gray added with Natsu grumpily nodding along.
"I don't regret kicking his ass. He deserved to be kicked off Tenrou Island with more then a few bruises." Naruto stated with a sombre tone.
Naruto clenched his fist and clicked his teeth before shaking his head as he looked back at Wakaba.
"He might have fallen onto the wrong path but at the very least he helped found Fairy Tail and that alone to me is good enough to not mock him after his death. Fairy Tail is a collective that had a lot of different people come and go. Hades or rather Former Master Precht at one point must have given many years of his life in service to Fairy Tail. For me I can at least acknowledge that part of history is also something he should be known for not just his bad deeds as Hades." Naruto explained with a sigh as he briefly glanced at the Guild Doors.
'Plus, it was his experiments on Mavis's body that allowed Mavis to revive in this state and without him I probably would not end up in Earthland and met my Fairy Tail family. So, I am grateful for that at the very least.' Naruto added silently.
While a majority of the reunited guild still looked at Naruto like they thought he was being naïve Makarov smiled as he nodded and coughed.
"Naruto is right. You all might only see the negative aspects of Precht's legacy but I am still grateful for the lessons he taught me when he was still the second Master of Fairy Tail. Hence, I declare that whatever grievances we have with Hades ends now." Makarov declared with a look of pride as he gazed at Naruto proudly for his maturity who nodded back gratefully.
The rest of the guild looked between Naruto and Makarov warily although it seemed the vast majority decided to trust Naruto and Makarov decision. Happy then blinked as he placed his palms together in confusion.
"Hey wait a minute! How do we know that you know uh… Precht is actually dead dead? I thought we let him go afterwards! What if he comes back and wants revenge again?" Happy asked with a look of terror as a lot of members eyes widened in realization.
Makarov also looked at Naruto at curiously who shook his head grimly.
"He's 100% dead and he deserve to rest in peace. You all might not have sensed it since we were celebrating but I did. I felt Zeref's 'Dark' magic spike for just a moment where I sensed Hades was going. Then Hades magic power disappeared altogether hence Hades was killed by Zeref trying to leave Tenrou Island. I guess there is a certain amount of irony for the man who wanted to use Zeref for his ideal 'Ultimate Magic World' was killed by that same man in retribution." Naruto commented with an ironic smile looking neither pleased nor distressed at the Hades passing.
Naruto sent a look at Makarov when he said 'Dark' magic who subtly nodded. They silently agreed not to discuss that Zeref was immortal and he had the Curse of Contradiction.
'If they never have to face Zeref or his little Empire then I would be happy. If it comes down to it, I will destroy the Empire to save Fairy Tail myself. Or at least take down the Spriggan 12.' Naruto mentally declared as he mentally had a demented smile.
'Naruto….' Kurama grumbled looking at Naruto warily as he had a dark expression for a moment.
'Kidding kidding! Well… Half Kidding.' Naruto mentally mused with a cheerful smile that notably did not quite reach his eyes.
The Tenrou group looked at Naruto wide eyes before they tapped their heads.
"Ah right. You are a sensory type. I guess you were looking out for us even while we were celebrating. Thanks Naruto." Erza told him warmly as she grabbed his head and rested it on her shoulder with a warm smile.
This more or less forced his head to be rather interesting angle as he was rather close to her scarlet red hair, he was close enough he could appreciate the curvature of her large breasts shown though her white T-shirt.
"Hmmm. Yeah, I will be looking out for everyone here." Naruto declared although he sounded a tad distracted with his nose briefly twitching as he inhaled Erza's sweet scent.
This caused Mira to pout as she put her hands on her hips as Lisanna smiled with a nervous uneasy smile.
"Sheesh that Erza-chan! She thinks she will get one over me and be the one most important to Naruto-kun? We shall see about that!" Mira whispered with eye twitch but playful smile.
'Well, I guess their rivalry will be renewed again but this time on who can get Naruto-kun's attention more. Hmm I guess that's not bad as even I want Naruto-kun to pay attention to me more at least for abit.' Lisanna thought in realization and relief.
'This is healthier then when Mira-Nee wanted to blow up anytime a girl flirted with Naruto-kun and I worried that the guild would be destroyed multiple times.' Lisanna thought a nervous chuckle at the thought of 'Demonic' Mira coming out in bursts of jealously and anger.
"Hmmm Erza. You must use some good shampoo or is that a natural strawberry scent from your hair? Either way it is pretty distracting in a good way of course." Naruto commented cheerfully as he not some subtly took a deep sniff of her red hair.
Erza smile grew wider as she gained a slight blush and swayed on her feet. Her left arm was being used to keep Naruto close but her right hand was playing with a few strands of her long red hair. She even rather cutely placed the strands behind her ear as she acted in a rather girly fashion.
"Thank you, Naruto. That is rather sweet of you. I have never had to use any sort of scented shampoo so I am glad you like my natural scent of my hair." Erza replied sweetly with her tone notably having a seductive tone showing her pleased she was. However, it was partly undone by her blush showing she was not used to being so openly flirty either.
Lucy pouted as she crossed her arms under her large chest.
"Sheesh! As soon as Naruto is willing to show us affection it seems everyone is willing to hop on and give it right back!" Lucy commented with a frown and jealous expression.
'Is it really that easy to show Naruto how much he means to me? Its just sorta embarrassing as despite how people view me, I haven't even held a boy's hand let alone had a boyfriend or know how to do this right.' Lucy thought self consciously as she had let it slip to Cana before she never had a boyfriend before.
As everyone had various looks of disbelief or trying to avoid looking like they were watching Erza and Naruto, Bisca in particular had a look of sheer disbelief as her jaw dropped.
"When did Naruto-san change to be flirty like that? Its totally out of character for him and even more for Erza to be receptive to this!" Bisca shouted as she pointed at the duo with slight blush.
"Um Bisca-chan. You are being abit loud dear." Alzack pointed out with a nervous chuckle even as he held a confused young girl in his arms.
Erza reluctantly put Naruto back onto his feet but not before she flicked her long hair in Naruto's direction smirking cheerfully as Naruto nose twitched to get one last smell of her strawberry scented hair. Bisca blushed and rubbed her head when everyone turned their attention to her.
"Sorry. I was just surprised as Naruto-san didn't seem to be that kind of man who flirts with girls even with women in our guild." Bisca explained sheepishly as Naruto waved her off cheerfully.
"Its more then alright. I guess you could say I learned to appreciate what is right in front of me instead of trying to look around for things that don't matter as much to me." Naruto stated off handily even as everyone looked abit confused at his vague answer.
'Sensei.' Wendy thought silently as she looked ready stoically at Naruto for a moment.
Naruto waved his hand before he smiled gently as he tilted his head towards Alzack with a knowing grin.
"I am guessing this cutie is the both of your little miracle? What's your name sweetie?" Naruto asked as he squatted down so he could be eye level with the level girl in Alzack's arms.
The young girl looked up at Naruto with wide eyes as she tilted her head in confusion cutely and almost made her cowgirl hat fall off. All the girls squealed at the young girl cute actions.
"Mama? Papa? Who is that blonde guy who has whiskers like a fox?" The young girl asked bluntly much to her parents' embarrassment.
"Asuka-chan! That is rude! We talked about this! You can't just say the first thing that comes to your mind especially about our guild mates! They are your extended family!" Bisca chided as Asuka pouted but nodded cutely.
"Sorry Mama! I will behave." Asuka assured her mother but Bisca and Alzack shook their heads and pointed to Naruto.
"No little one. You have to apologize to Naruto-san not us. The point is to apologize to the people we hurt with our comments not just Bisca and I." Alzack told her gently as the little girl nodded as she twisted so she could look up at the amused Naruto.
"Sorry Mister! Your whiskers aren't weird! They are unique!" Asuka told her with a huge grin.
'That is kinda a backhanded compliment but Asuka-chan is young enough she probably genuinely feels like it is a compliment. She is too cute to actually tell off though so sorry Naruto you are on your own.' Lucy thought drily as she kept cooing at the little girl.
Alzack and Bisca sighed at their daughter actions and were about to apologize for real towards Naruto but to their shock Naruto just laughed with a hearty laugh.
"Haha! What an honest child! That is quite clever little one! You are rather smart aren't you Asuka-chan?" Naruto applauded to the young girl deciding being less then 7 years old Asuka was definitely a 'cute' Chan aka a girl that is much younger than her.
"Hehe yup! I am very smart Mister! Excuse me but what is your name Mister! I don't want to keep calling you Mister as that sounds really lame!" Asuka babbled in a way only a very young child and still make it look cute.
Naruto smiled down at her before he briefly looked at Bisca and Alzack with a wave.
"It is quite alright. Usually, people don't comment on the whiskers but I don't really mind. They are a part of me and remind me where I come from. I am a Jinchuriki and always be proud to be one." Naruto stated confidently and thoughtfully as he gazed up at the roof with a smile.
Inside Naruto's seal the Tailed Beasts shared a grin with Kurama closing his eyes as he pretended to be asleep but he had a huge toothy grin he could not hide.
"Besides you don't need call me 'san' if you don't want to. To be honest anyone can call me just Naruto here. We are all family after all. That goes for anyone." Naruto added smirking before looking back down at Asuka with a soft smile.
"I am Naruto Uzumaki. You can call me Naruto or whiskers if you want Asuka-chan." Naruto introduced himself as he put his fist out in front of Asuka.
Asuka looked wide eyed at Naruto before she looked back to Bisca while Alzack kept hold of their excited daughter. Bisca looked at Naruto for a moment before she nodded to Alzack who grinned.
"Okay Naruto-Nii-Chan! I am Asuka and proud to meet you!" Asuka chanted innocently as she eagerly pressed her fist against Naruto much larger one making him nod in approval.
Naruto patted Asuka on her head making her cowgirl hat shift slightly even as she squealed and before he went back to Lucy and Erza who gave him curious expressions.
"I didn't know you were so good with children Naruto?" Erza asked him as she looked between him and Asuka.
Naruto gave a hum and shrugged before a proud smile appeared on his face.
"Hmm. I dunno about that. I just feel that children are the future and I guess I tend to be rather gentle with them." Naruto stated modestly as Erza nodded before she walked over to talk to Alzack and Bisca.
'Good with children… I wonder if that means he would be a good father?' Lucy thought as she then had a mental imagine of her and Naruto having two babies. One in each other arms as they looked lovingly at their children. Their daughter had her father's blue eyes and blonde hair while their son had her brown eyes and blonde hair.
'Dearest thank you for making me a father my love.' Naruto would proclaim as he would carry their daughter with one arm and wrap her up with his other.
'Thank you for making me a mother Naruto.' Lucy would reply just as lovingly as she snuggled up to the love of her life as her son just slept content in her arms while their daughter would be constantly grabbing Naruto's cheeks with her tiny hands.
While Lucy was in her imagination thinking about her future with Naruto Happy was hovering over her and giggling to himself.
"Lucy is acting weird again!" Happy chanting as he flew over Lucy's head while Natsu just briefly looked her over once.
"Eh she is probably just daydreaming like usual. No need to worry too much Happy." Natsu yawned as Happy just kept giggling to himself.
Meanwhile Erza looked a tad embarrassed as she put her hands over her cheeks.
"When did you guys get married?" Erza asked/demanded while Alzack and Bisca looked embarrassed but pleased.
"In X785. A few months after you all… left… It was pretty sudden but we decided we didn't want to wait any longer and it just happened." Alzack admitted sheepishly but smiled when Bisca put a hand on his shoulder.
"Erza… Once you know in your heart who you would want to spend the rest of your life with then nothing else matters. Waiting or 'trying for long enough with dating' doesn't matter when it comes to true love. Like what I have with Alzack. I have a feeling you will find that person for you." Bisca told Erza gently as she gave Alzack a loving smile.
"Someone I want to spend the rest of my life with huh?" Erza whispered as she couldn't help but look over at Naruto who was now in between Mira and Lucy who were smiling lovingly at him.
Naruto had seemingly summoned several dozens of fresh cupcakes out of nowhere was using Sky Dragon magic to spread them out to the people in the guild. Judging by how much Wendy was crying tears of joy and Mira and Lucy were looking like they were having mini fits of Nirvana. Even the guys couldn't help but gave yelps of astonishment on how good the cupcakes were. They seemed to be fresh baked as steam could be coming from the tops but judging by the joyed looks it was either not hot enough to burn or delicious enough that people didn't care.
"He is certainly the ideal and quite the catch." Erza mumbled as she had a small blush as she looked away from Naruto and caught the vanilla cupcake with strawberry frosted that had hovered towards her.
"Moan! He really is a good cook along with all his other great traits." Erza groaned silently as she missed Bisca knowing look.
'I guess that is a few girls after Naruto's heart huh? Who knows what will happen now that Naruto seems receptive to their feelings.' Bisca thought smugly even as she took a bite of her own cupcake and was feeding Asuka small bites of Alzack's cupcake to the young girl joy.
"Hey Naruto? These are super good but where did they come from?" Natsu asked with his mouth full only to get a bump on the head from Lucy.
"Don't talk with your mouth full! It's rude!" Lucy chided after she swallowed her mouthful showing more polite manners then Natsu.
"Oh these? I summoned a clone after we got to Hargeon Port to bake these. I merely summoned them using magic. If you want seconds, I had my clone create plenty extra." Naruto explained with an easy wave.
Much to everyone surprise Wendy leapt forward and grabbed his wrist looking rather demanding as she glared up at Naruto with her brown eyes.
"Me first Sensei! They should be all mine!" Wendy demanded as Naruto raised an eyebrow before he tilted his head behind her.
Wendy looked behind her as the guild was looking jaw drop at her even with over half of the members still having a half-eaten cupcake in one hand. Luckily nobody was chewing at the moment so there was no food leaking out their wide mouths.
Wendy then looked between Naruto and the rest of the guild before her cheeks turned pink.
"Eep! Kyah!" Wendy squeaked cutely getting a laugh from Naruto as he patted her on her head.
"I mean… Sensei would you please give us all seconds. Your baking is super just like your cooking." Wendy asked politely swaying on her feet nervously.
"That was pretty weird for Wendy. Anyways can we get seconds Naruto?" Natsu asked after getting over the random moment from Wendy.
"Uh… I mean if you could we would love to some more of your baking Naruto. Please?" Natsu amended when Erza gave him an ugly look and cracked her knuckles.
Naruto laughed before he waved his hand as hundreds of cupcakes lined up several of bar tables looking just as fresh as the first batch.
"Sure. Try to share alright? Despite how fond of them I am this is not just for the Dragon Slayers." Naruto joked with a wink and laugh as he flipped and landed next to Kinana who by instinct had retreated back to the bar.
Kinana blinked and smiled when Naruto gave her a warm smile even as the rest of the reunited guild swarmed the tables and started to dig into the cupcakes.
"Where did you learn to bake like that Naruto-kun? I mean you could probably make a living just selling your baking?" Kinana whispered as she watched their guild mates devour cupcake after cupcakes without delay.
"Haha that's sweet Kinana-chan. Thank you. It's funny Wendy made a comment similar about my cooking but I have never really seen my cooking or baking as anything special." Naruto mused as he had picked up one that had green frosting the same shade as Kinana green eyes.
Kinana blushed when Naruto split the cupcake neatly in half and offered her one half. Naruto smile grew when she shyly and gingerly took the half and gave him a beautiful smile.
Kinana gave a pleased sound when she took a bit from her half of the cupcake while Naruto more slowly ate his part with a hum.
"Hmm I guess since its my own cooking and baking I am just used to the flavour. It tastes pretty good but I feel other people like it more. Perhaps its because I can show my feelings towards other people more with cooking and baking instead of just eating it myself?" Naruto suggested with a hum.
Naruto eyed Kinana blush slightly when she licked her lips to get the last traces of the frsosting from her pink lips.
"You know what? You really do look beautiful when you smile and blush. It is quite the treat to be able to see it for myself. You sure do make a guy like me lucky to be your friend." Naruto praised warmly with a wink.
Kinana blush turned from pink to red at Naruto's compliment as she looked down before shyly looking up at Naruto's eyes.
"Um… Thank you Naruto-kun…. You make it easy to smile when I am with you." Kinana admitted as she fanned her fan making Naruto smile widen at her admission.
Meanwhile most of the guild was gorging themselves at the cupcakes with Gildarts humourlessly trying to feed an annoyed Cana a cupcake. She fought back before smashing one into Gildarts cheek which he took with good humour even as he comically cried at his daughter 'wild streak' to her annoyance.
After making sure Alzack and Asuka were amused at feeding the young girl bites of cupcakes slowly, Bisca sauntered to where Erza was as she had already eaten quite a few of Naruto's homemade cupcakes.
"So Naruto-san…. Er I suppose Naruto is quite the catch huh? I dunno about you but a man who can cook and bake is pretty good traits for a husband." Bisca commented looking at her nails as if inspecting them.
"Cough cough?! Husband?!" Erza squeaked as she almost choked on the cupcake she was eating before she managed to swallow it with a cute pink blush on her cheeks.
Bisca was still inspecting her nails but out the corner of her eyes she saw the normally confident S-class wizard looking rather embarrassed but intrigued as well. She chuckled when Erza looked at her with a suspicious look as Erza glanced at Alzack and Asuka with a frown.
"Oh! I didn't mean husband or boyfriend for you or me specifically but just in general. I am not interested in Naruto that way as I already had deep feelings for Alzack-kun and those feelings became love while you guys were asleep." Bisca assured her with a wave of her hand and smile.
Erza couldn't help giving a sigh of relief before a smile appeared.
'It would be pretty heartbreaking if Naruto ended up breaking up a relationship with a woman showing her feelings for him after being a serious relationship with another man. I know he wouldn't want to break up relationships. He isn't that kind of guy. For me however…. I haven't had those… feelings for anyone else.' Erza thought relieved seemingly not noticing she didn't seem that offended at the idea of Naruto having relationships with multiple women just not breaking up a relationship to do so.
Bisca looked deep into Erza's brown eyes with her own purple eyes with interest before nodding to herself.
"Whatever happened to Naruto and the other girls on Tenrou Island… I am happy they seem to be more open to the idea of being in relationships instead of how closed off Naruto seemed to be to the idea of being in relationships." Bisca mumbled which Erza caught with wide eyes.
"Relationships? With Naruto?" Erza stuttered but her blush grew when Bisca gave her a knowing look.
"Hmm I see you didn't deny you wanted one Erza." Bisca teased as Erza pouted and crossed her arms.
Meanwhile the Thunder Legion were huddled around Laxus who seemed to be at relative ease.
"I still can't believe that Naruto managed to snag kisses from 4 women in this guild even if it was only on the cheeks and didn't get any of them angry with him!" Bickslow commented with a slight pout showing jealously.
Evergreen rolled her eyes at her teammates while Laxus just sighed.
"It does seem illogical that no jealously was shown by the women when its only logical that a woman would only want a man interested in them and not flirting with other women." Freed added as he took a thinking pose.
Laxus looked past them and sighed.
"Maybe you shouldn't talk about Naruto kissing women so openly? There is still a few people who didn't know about earlier in the guild." Laxus pointed out as he pointed behind them.
Freed and Bickslow eyes grew wide when they saw the remaining members of Fairy Tail who stayed behind have their jaw drop.
"Wait what?! Which women did Naruto kiss?" Max demanded while Macao sighed.
"It's really nobody business except Naruto but I guess since we all saw it. He kissed Kinana-chan, Lucy, Mira-chan and Erza on the cheeks earlier today before you all arrived. I am guessing Lucy didn't bring it up as its really nobody business." Macao commented as he sent a disappointed look at Freed and Bickslow who to their credit looked a tad bad for their gossiping. AN2:
"How are you okay with that?" A much wider Droy asked with jaw to the floor.
"I can't get a girlfriend and he is kissing 4 women in the same day?!" Jet complained making Levy sigh at her teammates.
Lucy closed her eyes and looked away with a blush as she refused to answer, Erza crossed her arms and glared at anyone looking her way. Naruto put a hand protectively over Kinana who looked rather shy and sheepish but pleased at Naruto protective actions.
"Maybe it's because Naruto-kun is a good guy and doesn't make my skin crawl at the idea of being touched by men?" Mira suggested with a dark smile as she closed her eyes and cracked her knuckles.
This alone got the remaining members to somber up and nod as they let go of that issue.
'Same old Mira-chan. One of the most beautiful women in the entire world but she still got that vibe she could kick your butt if you tried anything with her. Which in itself is rather attractive trait for Mira-chan. She isn't just eye candy she can go toe to toe with the best of us.' Naruto mused cheerfully silently praising the beautiful white-haired model and S-class wizard.
'I am glad Mira-chan is okay with Naruto-kun being so close. I don't think I could beat her if I had 20 years of training. She is so pretty but scary.' Kinana thought with a nervous chuckle.
"Gray-sama! If Naruto-san can kiss all these women surely you can spare one kiss for Juvia-chan! Please Gray-sama!" Juvia cried out towards Gray who looked wide eyed.
"How do those two things relate to each other? Just because Naruto is kissing women you want me to kiss you in the middle of the guild?" Gray shouted in horror.
"That would be so indecent!" Gray insisted even as he somehow stripped down to his boxers.
"Gray your clothes." Cana pointed out flatly.
"Oh, come on! Why does this keep happening to me?" Gray complained as he looked down in realization.
"Oh my… Gray-sama so handsome…" Juvia chanted dreamily with her eyes in hearts seemingly pacified with just looking for the moment.
Bisca turned back to Erza who looking fondly at Naruto even as he was chatting with Kinana happily.
"Okay well you must be serious about Naruto. I known you for quite awhile and if you had any interest in a guy you would be pretty mad if he showed interest in another woman but it seems your feelings are genuine enough you don't mind the idea of sharing him." Bisca suggested as she studied Erza carefully.
"….. Hmm…." Erza just mumbled as she closed her eyes and put a hand on her chin in wonder.
"Do I come out to be a jealous woman? Hmm I never really thought of how I would act if someone did show an interest in someone, I had romantic feelings for. Perhaps since I never really had romantic feelings for anyone before?" Erza mused as she and Bisca had without truly thinking about it walked over to an empty table and sat down.
"Okay we need something to wash this all down! Kinana-chan! Please give a round to everyone here! On me of course! To Fairy Tail return!" Naruto declared as he watched the massive number of cupcakes steadily decrease.
"Here to Naruto Uzumaki!" Gildarts declared as he put a fist up.
"Naruto!" The guild chanted as Kinana started to do her bartender duties with a smile.
Naruto sent Lisanna a look as he tilted his head towards Kinana. Lisanna nodded as she jogged over to the bar while Naruto leapt over and took his spot next to Lucy. Lucy jumped slightly when she felt him land next to her at her table but gave him a grateful smile which he returned.
Soon Kinana and Lisanna were handing out mugs full of drinks to the happy guild members after Naruto gave Kinana a large stash of Jewels to Makarov and Macao joy.
"To Fairy Tail return!" Naruto announced as he put his mug up into the air.
"Fairy Tail!" Everyone else chanted as they put their mugs up into the air as well.
Meanwhile Erza and Bisca were still continuing their chat/gossip about Erza's feelings for Naruto.
"Hmm…. Naruto does make me feel different then Gray or Natsu despite me knowing them since our childhood together. Heck they are pretty much my brothers which I would happily wash their backs like we did as kids." Erza noted tapping her forehead with a look of remembrance.
"Uh huh. That's good to know." Bisca nodded her head with a polite smile.
'That is abit out there but I suppose if it works for the three of them who I am I am to comment. Although Juvia-san would probably be foaming out the mouth at the idea of Erza washing Gray's back while they are naked.' Bisca thought with a sweatdrop.
"I will be honest Erza. It's not spoken out as much as you might think but a lot of people, I talked to assumed you and Jellal had feelings for each other." Bisca noted with a serious expression. AN3:
Erza jaw dropped as she looked absolutely shocked and surprised at that statement.
"Jellal?! When have I have ever given the impression, I am interested in him?! That just so wrong! I mean it would be like dating Natsu or Gray and we are family!" Erza declared as she notably looked uncomfortable and shuddering.
"Isn't everything in the guild family by our bonds? Although I suppose that didn't stop me or Alzack or Naruto kissing all those women." Bisca mumbled as Erza blinked.
"Sorry did you say something? I thought I heard something about family?" Erza asked curiously looking at Bisca with interest.
"Oh, it was nothing! Just some random rambling! Nothing to worry about!" Bisca claimed as she was secretly sweating and shaking in her boots.
'Shoot! She almost heard me! This is not something I should say in front of Erza or Mira-chan! They will kick my butt!' Bisca thought in fear as she held no illusions, she could beat either S-class wizard in a fight.'
Erza looked at her for a few moments as Bisca continued to sweat before Erza smiled and shrugged.
"If you say so." Erza stated cheerfully making Bisca give a very subtle sigh of relief.
"So do you think Naruto would be interested in advancing our relationship beyond teammates? I mean I don't expect him to just jump in and declare he is my boyfriend or do naughty stuff in the bedroom or anything." Erza asked with a notable bashful expression.
'Wow I never thought I would see Erza of all people act like this? She really must have it hard for Naruto. She is acting much more like a schoolgirl then a badass strict S-class wizard we all know.' Bisca thought with amusement.
Erza cheeks were slightly red and she was constantly swaying on her feet as her hands were behind her back. This gave her a much more innocent and cute look to the normally beautiful but struct red head.
'Ok I really hope nobody looks this way. This might get a few guys to fall in love with her. This softer side of the indomitable Erza makes her look more like a hot girl instead of someone who would stab you if you talked to her the wrong way.' Bisca mused silently admitting that she could appreciate Erza's beauty albeit not to her face.
"Uh well… I mean nobody really expected him to kiss you or anyone let alone 4 women at once even if it was only on the cheeks." Bisca assured her gently as Erza nodded slowly.
"That is true. Perhaps Naruto's priorities have changed due to what happened on Tenrou Island? That changed all of our lives even if it still feels like less then a day has happened despite it being 7 years." Erza noted solemnly as Bisca nodded.
Bisca and Erza turned around to see Naruto chatting with Lucy who was looking at a cupcake in front of her and Naruto's mouth before looking away. Meanwhile Mira had went back into the kitchen and appeared again with a hot steamy bowl of ramen.
"Naruto-kun! Are you hungry? I made this ramen especially for you!" Mira sang as she sat on Naruto's other side making Naruto turn to her.
Naruto missed the annoyed expression on Lucy's face and the slight teasing smirk Mira gave Lucy and Erza. Erza eye twitched at her rival openly mocking her while Bisca gave a nervous chuckle. Meanwhile Wendy was still chomping happily on a dozen cupcakes she somehow managed to snag for herself while Carla was giving her a lecture which Wendy openly ignored.
"Mira-chan? I am honoured that you made this for me but is this okay? I mean I didn't order it or anything and it seems kinda wrong that you did all that effort for me. I don't know what to say." Naruto replied back sheepishly but Mira shook her head and gave him a beautiful smile.
"Just consider this me saying a thank you for being my…. Important friend." Mira replied taking a pause as she looked like she wanted to say something besides 'important friend' but chose it.
Naruto smile grew as he grabbed Mira's slim wrist with one of his hands and placed a kiss on it making Mira blush and place the ramen bowl onto the table to fan her face. The guild were wide eyed at the intimate moment between Mira and Naruto but they didn't seem to focus on anyone besides each other for the moment.
Naruto gave Mira a gentle squeeze of her hand before he let go noticing that she had light blue fingernail polish which he found enhanced her beauty especially as they were the same shade as her pretty blue eyes.
"So are you okay with me eating it now? I promise to give you a positive review!" Naruto joked with a wink and chuckle.
Mira just smiled as Naruto tried to take the chopsticks from her but she playfully batted his hand away making him look at her in surprise.
"Ah ah ah! I cooked it for you so I get to decide how you eat it!" Mira insisted as Naruto tilted his head.
"Now open up Naruto-kun and enjoy! Keep in mind I don't do this for just anyone so make sure to enjoy it fully." Mira cooed playfully as she batted her eyes. She blew into the hot ramen she gathered between the chopsticks cooling it down and placed them towards Naruto.
Naruto instantly blushed at Mira cheeks were slightly flustered but she had a pleased expression.
"Mira-chan? You're going to feed me?" Naruto stuttered at the intimate action from the beautiful model.
Mira smiled warmly at him as her beautiful face seemed to be even more beautiful as Mira nodded.
"You don't mind, do you? I think it would be something we could do together. It would make me happy if you like this new thing we do once in awhile." Mira told him as she briefly looked bashful before her beautiful smile returned.
Naruto eyed the guild with several males like Wakaba openly crying tears of jealously making him roll his eyes.
"Sure. We can do this. I wouldn't mind and if anything, I feel I am lucky enough that you like me enough to cook and feed me like this." Naruto told her just as warmly as Mira leaned in so her face was now just a foot away from his own making both of their hearts to beat faster.
"Say 'Ah' Naruto-kun and enjoy." Mira chanted as she placed the chopsticks to his lips as she watched his reaction when he slurped up the noodles.
"Hmm! This is amazing Mira-chan! I swear your siblings must be the luckiest to be able to have your cooking as a regular thing! I am almost jealous to be honest." Naruto told her as he resisted telling her that her vanilla smelling hair at close range was also making it hard to focus on just the food.
Mira's smile almost seemed to stretch past her face as she placed a hand on his whiskered cheek and rubbed it gently.
"Well Naruto-kun we can cook for each other and compare? I find your cooking pretty good as well and like my cooking so it could be fun if we can find time to cook for each other." Mira suggested playfully as Naruto smirk grew at her teasing.
"Hmm I suppose next time I will have to cook for you and then feed you? How about that? Although your fans might be abit jealous if I get to the one who gets to make sure you no food drips down your face." Naruto replied back just as playful and flirty making Mira's warm smile grew even more warmer.
"Oh you! Ara Ara! Look who has gotten quite bold Naruto-kun!" Mira noted as she not so subtly leaned forward allowing Naruto a nice look down her neckline of her dress. Her red dress was similar to the one she wore when Naruto and Lucy came to Fairy Tail but notably had a more plunging neckline and the straps were thinner making it seem almost strapless in comparison.
Naruto continued to enjoy her ramen and especially the fact Mira took the time to feed him personally. It also was rather fun for him whenever Mira used her gentle fingers to seemingly wipe away any loose noodles. However, for Naruto it seemed Mira just seemed to enjoy stroking his chin and cheeks after every bit with her soft fingers making him let out a small groan making her smile even wider.
Lucy jaw dropped at how blatant Mira and Naruto were flirting with each other while Gildarts and Makarov had tears of fatherly joy.
"Our boy is becoming a man so quickly! He has basically gotten Mira-chan to become his personal hmmm face toucher!" Gildarts joked as Makarov laughed as well.
"I swear he is like a magnet that just keeps on getting women attracted!" Makarov added proudly.
Wakaba seemed to be in a depressed state as he chugged down his mug grumpily.
"There goes any chance of Mira-chan feeding me one day." Wakaba whined as several members rolled their eyes including the Thunder Legion and Levy.
"Dude, you didn't have a chance before Naruto came to the guild and now, I don't think anyone has a chance with Mira." Levy told him flatly as she resisted frowning at Mira and Naruto having a rather good time together.
Cana whistled looking impressed and clapped her hands.
"Wow! Talk about moving fast! He kissed you on the cheek once and now you are basically asking him to move in!" Cana suggested while Mira stopped feeding Naruto for a moment to give her an annoyed expression.
"Cana. Who I share my time with is my business and if Naruto-kun thinks spending time with me is the best then who I am to stand in his way." Mira stated smugly as she happened to stretch slightly letting Naruto's eyes briefly see her breasts bouncing in her dress.
Cana shrugged but still looked rather impressed. Kinana frowned but shook her head.
'If Mira-chan wants to be first then I am okay with it. Like I told Lisanna-chan I am okay with sharing and that hasn't changed in the years apart.' Kinana decided wiped several dirty glasses with a hum.
Elfman looked like he wanted to intervene but also looked like he was afraid of what would happen if he did. Elfman seemed to realize the futility and just sat down next to Gajeel and Juvia who just shook their heads seemingly deciding that this had nothing to do with them. Lisanna pouted for a second before sighing as she helped out Kinana.
"I know they are their own people but this just feels weird to watch." Lisanna admitted seeing her crush and older sister essentially having a mini date.
"Because you like him too, right? There is nothing wrong admitting that Lisanna-chan. Maybe its because I accepted that I might have to share him if I want to be part of his romantic life and Mira-chan isn't my sister. I am okay just waiting my turn." Kinana suggested easily.
Lisanna blushed red but didn't reply making Kinana smirk.
"See this is why I do not want you to be following in the footsteps of Naruto Uzumaki! He is being rather indecent sharing a meal like that with Mirajane in the middle of the guild!" Carla insisted as she hovered above Wendy as Wendy let out a slight burp after finishing another cupcake.
"Carla…. Mira-san was the one who initiated the 'indecency' as you like to put it with Sensei. If anything, you should be telling me to be less like Mira-san. How Sensei chooses to respond to Mira-san advances is up to him. Just as its up to me who I emulate and learn from." Wendy responded seriously with her brown eyes a darker shade for a moment as she narrowed her eyes at her long-time friend.
Carla jaw dropped as she gaped at Wendy who looked at her for waiting for a response.
"Wendy? When did you get so serious? I am just trying to look out for you…" Carla stuttered as she tried to touch Wendy's head with her paw.
Wendy closed her eyes and looked away with an annoyed pout.
"Hmm! Have you ever thought that Naruto-Sensei is also trying to look out for me too? Also, I am not a baby who cannot think for herself. If I think Sensei is someone who is kind despite being powerful then I don't see why I cannot respect him." Wendy told Carla stiffly making the Exceed wince at her tone.
"Wendy…. I…" Carla stumbled with her words seemingly unable to find a response to Wendy cool attitude.
Wendy opened her eyes as her expression softened as she softly patted Carla on the head making the Exceed lean into her touch.
"I am sorry Carla. I didn't mean to be cold or anything. I just want you and Sensei to get along or at least to be fair to each other. You are both important to me after all and I don't like being in the middle." Wendy explained kindly as her brown eyes and expression seemed to gentle but sincere.
"You are right Wendy… I have been rather unfair towards Naruto… I will try my best to give him a chance and not just say whatever comes to my head without thinking." Carla promised making Wendy nod happily. AN4:
Meanwhile with Bisca she was sweating in fear when she felt the air around her and Erza seem to heat up.
"Uh Erza? Is it me or it getting hot in here?" Bisca asked nervously.
"Huh? Maybe you need a fan or something Bisca?" Erza suggested but it was clear she was rather distracted. Erza eyes were down before they dashed up to watch Naruto and Mira continuing to be distracted by Mira feeding Naruto her special bowl of ramen.
"Bisca? Do you and Alzack feed each other in this manner? Is it something that a married couple would do for fun?" Erza asked calmly but with a notable sharp tone as she frowned.
"Uh well…. I don't know if it's the norm for married couple but we have fed each other a few times before. Albeit it was in our own house and not in the guild hall like Mira-chan and Naruto are doing now." Bisca admitted with her mumbling the last part.
"I see… Then is perhaps Mira suggesting she would be an excellent bride for Naruto by getting practice of feeding him and not being embarrassed about to do so in public?" Erza asked as she hummed with her eyes closed.
'What am I supposed to say to something like that? I feel any answer I give you will annoy her more!' Bisca thought as she started to sweat from her fear of Erza and the heat Erza seemed to be giving off.
Bisca looked at Mira and Erza back to Naruto a few times before a light bulb seemed to light up in her head.
"Hey Naruto?" Bisca yelled across the guild hall attracting the attention of Naruto along with the rest of the guild.
"Yeah Bisca? Is something the manner?" Naruto replied back politely after he swallowed the noodles in his mouth and wiped his mouth so he was not replying while he had food in his mouth.
"Do you think Erza would look good as a bride? I am just asking because I wanted to know what your type would be." Bisca asked boldly smirking when Erza annoyed expression turned into pure embarrassment and shock.
"What are you doing? Asking something so brazen to Naruto at a time like this!" Erza squeaked as her face turned an interesting tone of red.
"I am helping! Just trust me Erza!" Bisca whispered as she gave her a subtle thumbs up as Erza turned to Naruto with an expectant look even as she blushed.
Naruto hummed to himself as he put his left thumb and index underneath his chin in thinking pose. Meanwhile Mira looked a tad annoyed that Naruto seemed to taking the question rather seriously.
"Well, I don't know how Erza would look like as a bride. I have never seen her in a wedding dress after all so I couldn't really say. Erza seemed to rock any outfit I have seen her before so there is a good chance she would look great as bride but I don't want to make assumptions after all." Naruto replied with a flirty and teasing tone as he focused his amused look at Erza who blushed a deeper shade at his praise and look.
"Naruto is being so bold now! I didn't think he would answer like that!" Lucy stated in shock even as Cana slid next to her with a laugh.
"Ah is Lucy-chan being jealous that Erza is getting a compliment? That is so cute that you not as bold as Mira or Erza!" Cana teased adding a honorific just to tease Lucy even more. Lucy pout just made her giggle even louder.
Bisca turned around to Erza about to tease her more but then her jaw dropped along with the rest of the guild as Erza blush disappeared and she gained a look of resolve.
"Requip!" Erza shouted as there was a powerful burst of light that surrounded her. Like usual her silhouette inside the light showed she had become naked as she changed outfits in the light.
Also, like usual there was more then a few men who looked excited and disappointed the light prevented them from clearly seeing Erza naked body only a silhouette to tease them she was naked at the moment. After a few seconds the light vanished as Erza had finished changing into a new 'armour' or rather 'costume' using her Requip magic.
The entire guild jaws dropped to the tables they were sitting at as every guy looked like their fantasies had come true judging by their blushes and openly lustful looks. Even the women were shell shocked with Levy, Wendy and Lucy blushing and looking shocked at the outfit was wearing. Cana smirk had vanished as she was wide eyed along with Evergreen. Both Laxus and Freed did not seem as affected as the rest of the men judging by their lack of a blush but they did raise an eyebrow at Erza 'interesting' choice of clothes. Gray and Elfman had slight blushes even as they tried and failed to look away at Erza. Juvia jaw had dropped as saw how 'bold' Erza was being.
Several men like Makarov, Gildarts and Wakaba had hearts in their eyes as they openly ogled the beautiful red head while Macao at least had the decency to try to look away as he tried to cover a blushing Romeo eyes.
Carla was too shocked to cover Wendy eyes who was blushing but her eyes were looking jealous as she focused on Erza's impressive chest giving a bounce in her outfit. Natsu and Happy were not blushing like most of the males but Natsu at least looked rather surprised. Lisanna and Kinana had identical looks of shock even as they couldn't help but be jealous at the beautiful red head.
Mira was surprised at her rival while Naruto jaw had dropped as a healthy blush appeared on his cheeks despite his seemingly bolder attitude towards his female guildmates.
In the most technical terms Erza had Requipped into an outfit that would be considered an 'Wedding Dress' albeit most if not all adults were not be wearing the outfit in public wedding. This outfit would be more likely worn by a bride on her honeymoon or a rather kinky night between husband and wife.
Erza had her hair styled into a pair of long twin tail ponytails that reached down to her butt showing how long her hair was. There were also two bangs that hung across her ears that was braided that fell down to her shoulders that also had a black hair pin to keep them in place. Each twin tail was tied up by a light blue scrunchie to contrast her natural red hair and she also wore heart shaped diamond earrings that sparkled in the light as they hung down to her shoulders by long golden chains. She had added on some light blue lipstick that made her lips look glossy and attractive as she licked her lips once with a smirk and wink. On her neck was a golden necklace with a set of small emeralds decorating and shining in the light. On Erza's forehead she wore a silver crown along with a series of white flowers to give her both an elegant royal look and innocent pure look that contrasted her pure sexual appeal. On Erza's wrists she wore a pair of bracelets with her one of her right being a silver thick bracelet and the right being a series of pearls and flowers. This was just the basic hairstyle and accessories she had added on and not including the dress itself.
The 'wedding dress' or rather 'bride dress' was including sensual and form fitting. The white wedding dress was incredibly short being composed a pair of gloves that started at a fair bit below her shoulders but before her elbows and ended bracelets before her wrists. This exposed her shoulders and her hands which hands which had pink fingernail polish and a golden ring with a diamond on her left hand. She wore a see-through veil which started on top of her head and ended near her shoulder which glistered in the light. The main part of the dress was essentially a white mini dress that started at the middle of her large breasts and ended at her lower thighs. She wore a bright yellow sash in the form bow at her waist that was tied off and flowed in two directions all the way to the floor. The see through Train of her 'wedding dress' started where her yellow sash was on her butt and it trailed down the floor but did not quite reach the floor unlike her yellow sashes which gently hit the floor and curled up. She completed the outfit with a pair of white high heels that added a few inches to her impressive height that showed off her painted pink toe nails and had pink and green flowers on the front. The trim of her wedding dress top also had similar green and pink flowers along with a yellow fabric like her sash. This same trim colouring was on her ankles just above where her high heels ended. Yellow flowers along with oink and green flowers.
Overall calling Erza 'beautiful' was an understatement of the year as she looked more like a bride almost any guy would push their fellow man to get to marry if not have a one-night stand for. The sheer amount of skin shown in the 'wedding dress' would make any adult woman call her 'scandalous' if they weren't in sheer shock and jealously at how well Erza looked in it.
Erza large breasts were very prominently shown as the top of her wedding dress only covered about the lower half of her enormous breasts just barely covering her nipples as there was a large cleavage window as her breasts jiggled with every breath she took. Her shoulders were shown bare as the 'wedding dress' was shoulder less and backless. The dress itself was rather right but not uncomfortable tight for Erza as her light blush and smirk shown no sign of discomfort. This showed off all of Erza's natural curves which were at least usually somewhat hidden in her casual armours or even normal white T-shirts. Her thin waist and wide hips contrasted in the dress showing off her hourglass figure fully. Due to the white dress which was essentially a white mini dress at best ending at her lower thighs her legs were exposed fully. She had chosen to not include any some of stockings, thigh highs or even socks, her long legs were exposed to the entire guild hall. Her legs were only accentuated with her high heels adding a sexual look and making her firm butt even more desirable. AN5:
Erza had a blush on her cheeks but also a confident look giving her both innocence and sexual appeal. This made her even more beautiful to the vast majority of the guild who were drooling, gaping or at the very least jaw dropped at Erza's choice of outfit.
Erza began to walk perfectly in her high heels and having a natural sway of her hips and butt. She just smirked when she had the eyes of every guild member of her with a good majority of her males following her breasts or ass rather than her eyes. However, she only had eyes for one person in particular as her brown eyes kept focus on Naruto Uzumaki. She continued to walk for several feet until she stood right in front of Mira and Naruto. Erza smirk grew as she saw how furious Mira looked as Mira glanced between Erza and Naruto. Naruto was no longer focused on ramen or Mira and only focused on Erza as he had a healthy blush and couldn't help a look of desire and affection on his face.
"So, are you ready?" Erza asked coyly as she licked her lips at Naruto's expression.
"Ready for what Erza?" Naruto stuttered as he had a very difficult time focusing on just her eyes with everything else going on. It didn't help that Erza's breasts were less then a few feet away from his face and continued to bounce with every action Erza took.
Erza leaned in so her lips were just a foot away from Naruto's own as she licked her lips sensually and batted her eyes seductively.
"To get married of course! Na~Ru~To~!" Erza purred in desire and seduction as she paused at every syllable of Naruto's name to let out a warm breath of air into Naruto's nose which she delighted in when he shuddered with desire.
This caused several men specifically Makarov, Gildarts and Wakaba to fly back with a happy smile and blood running down their faces even as they fell onto the hard wooden floors. Macao at least had the curtesy to try to hide his bloody nose with his hand as the other was holding onto a massively blushing Romeo. Gray and Elfman had their eyes closed by Juvia and Evergreen who looked furious especially when the men peeked through their fingers to look at Erza still with blushes on their faces. Bickslow had a rather perverted smile on his face as he gave a thumb of approval. Gajeel did not look quite as excited but he did have a slight blush on his cheeks. Pantherlily had an incredibly dry look as he gave a sigh.
Jet and Droy were gaping with blushes but looking back at Levy as if to say 'we are not looking I swear Levy-chan!'. However, Levy did not seem at all interested in her teammates reactions but was blushing with a look of envy specifically at Erza's large chest.
Alzack had to look away from Erza to avoid staring at another woman who was not his wife as he covered up his curious daughter's innocent eyes. Bisca was jaw dropped as she was not expecting this turn of events when she asked Naruto if Erza would be a good bride as a joke.
'Well, this backfired royally! I only meant to tease them on their feelings not have Erza take this as a challenge!' Bisca thought nervously although she did occasionally have her eyes drawn to the technically younger red haired woman's chest.
Max had heart shaped eyes along with Warren and Nab. Reedus had a blush and unseen to everyone else he was sketching on a note pad as quick as he could while looking in Erza's general direction. Laki was looking scandalous and abit jealous as she crossed her arms over her chest with a pout. Vijeeter was blushing and looking lost like he didn't know how he was supposed to react in this situation.
Kinana and Lisanna were gaping with blushes especially at how sensual Erza was acting and wearing. Kinana had more a look of wonderment as if she was looking up to Erza confidence while Lisanna had a more jealous look as Erza was much more well developed then herself. Lisanna even took turns looking between Kinana chest and Erza's with look of envy as even though Kinana was not quite as busty as Erza both women were a fair bit bustier than her.
Lucy and Cana had quite different expressions as they sat together to watch this unfold. Cana was laughing while Lucy had a blush and look of indignation at Erza's actions with her eyes looking down at her own chest in wonderment.
'Could I pull that dress off? I know I can rock anything I wear but would Naruto be gaping as much if I wore that?' Lucy thought to herself curiously.
Wendy had her jaw to the table as she had massive blush on her face while Carla looked like she wanted to explode with a lecture but couldn't find the words to explain how she felt.
Natsu, Happy, Laxus and Freed looked least affected but Laxus gave a subtle nod of approval in Naruto's direction.
"I mean it could be as early as tomorrow for us to be wed and bound together! You just need to ask Na~Ru~To~!" Erza pointed out with a purr and seductive sway of her hips making her breasts bounce at close range.
Whatever rational thoughts were left in Naruto's head seemed to vanish at Erza's not so subtle declaration she wouldn't mind being married to him. Naruto blush turned to new heights of red as his eyes rolled back to his head and he dropped like a potato. He passed out and his head started to drift towards the table. AN6:
Mira looked ready to defend Naruto but in a shocking quick bust of speed Erza managed to leap forward and land in between Mira and Naruto despite wearing her high heels. Erza not so subtly pushed Mira off the table as she grabbed Naruto's head in mid air and placed it on her lap as she and Naruto laid down on the wooden bench.
"Soft… warm… bouncy…" Naruto mumbled he opened his eyes to see Erza smiling face and her large breasts hanging a few feet from his face and bounce hypnotically.
"Just rest your weary head on my lap Naruto. I will always be there to comfort you in any way you need." Erza said warmly as she traced her whiskered cheeks with her pretty fingers and rubbed them soothingly.
"Okay Erza… I will just rest on your lap for abit. Your thighs feel soft and firm and you lap feels so warm." Naruto stated honestly making Erza smile and blush.
"Thank you, Naruto. That is rather sweet." Erza stated as she played with one of her twin tails with her fingers in a rather schoolgirl way which Naruto thought was cute and sexy. Naruto eyes droop slightly as he rubbed his face against her smooth and uncovered thighs making Erza shudder slightly as his warm breath pressed against her naked legs bringing warmth to her core.
Meanwhile Mira got off the floor with a huff not pleased her time with Naruto was interrupted nor happy Erza not so gently pushed her way to steal Naruto's attention from her.
"That little! How dare she come in that little 'wedding dress' outfit and bounce in like she owns the place! No how dare she come in and act like she owns Naruto! It was my time with him and we were enjoying ourselves till she comes in and shoves his face into her lap!" Mira hissed before she took several deep breaths before she unleashed her magic and possibly look bad in Naruto's eyes.
It took a few minutes for the guild to recover from that not so 'innocent' display with Kinana and Lisanna having to clean up the blood splatter on the floors caused by certain men being unable to control themselves. Naruto eventually got off Erza's lap as she winked at him and playfully traced his lips with her soft fingers and then placed them onto her own glossy looking lips.
She puckered her lips and licked the spot where her fingers touched her own lips as she gave off the message 'We just exchanged an indirect kiss Naruto!' with a wink. This got a blush from Naruto and a furious glare from Mira whom Erza just batted her eyes at playfully. She added to Mira's anger by blowing a kiss to the blushing Naruto as she winked cutely.
Mira seemingly fought back and sat next to Naruto to the point her large breasts squeezed against Naruto's arm and Erza did the same on his other side making Naruto the lucky male to be sandwiched between two beautiful and famous S-class female wizards who were clothed.
Erza had returned back to her white shirt and blue skirt much to the disappointment of the men who wanted to continue to see her in a wedding dress. Mira red dress still was sensual enough she could probably make a good living posing in it in Sorcerer Weekly and more if she changed the length from ankle length to knee length.
"Well Naruto my boy! You are quite the lady man! A lovely S-class female wizard on each arm and them snuggling onto you like they are your ladies! You haven't even needed to ask them to be your girlfriends and they are just pressing themselves onto you willingly!" Gildarts praised with a grin that made Naruto think of Jiraiya perverted but fatherly pride beaming down at him.
This got a slight blush from Mira, Erza and Naruto but none of them moved away. Naruto even moved his hands onto the beautiful S-class wizards' waist by instinct as if claiming them making them blush more but looking rather pleased.
"Please Gildarts! Who we spend our time with is completely ours to choose. Naruto-kun is just someone I want to be near even if Erza has the same idea." Mira stated defensively as she rested her head onto Naruto's shoulder making certain men drop their heads in defeat.
Erza seemed content to just press against him and didn't seem to rise to Mira's taunting even as Naruto not so subtly smelled Mira's vanilla scented hair that was leaning against his face.
'Oh Mira. I am still ahead of you in my humble opinion as showed my intent to take my hand in marriage! You can try to be clingy but I have a more honest part of his heart for the moment.' Erza thought happily as she specifically chosen that 'bride' outfit to get a reaction out of Naruto and to show her honest feelings about the idea of marriage to Naruto.
Gildarts did not seem offended at all as he shared a hearty laugh with Makarov as they swung their mugs in the air in celebration.
"Ah don't be like that Mira-chan! If anything, I am praising you three for showing your feelings so openly! Young love is so rare to find and hold onto! Heck, I have been with my share of women but only Cana-chan's mother is still the only women I have ever loved and it was my fault I lost my chance to be with her." Gildarts noted proudly before his eyes and expression grew sombre with a look of regret as he looked down.
Natsu seemed to be shocked at his hero/rival's confession about love while Cana scowled at his mention of being with many women remembering his inability to remember who her mother was from his list of relationships. Lucy patted Cana on the back when Cana then looked embarrassed and pleased at Gildarts declaration of her mother being his only true love.
"Cana-chan… Are you okay? I know this must be difficult for you to hear from Gildarts-san." Lucy asked Cana in a rather sisterly concerned tone as Cana looked contemplative.
"That stupid old man… To think if I only told him earlier, he would have been this way before." Cana noted grumpily but with a pleased smile.
Gildarts rushed forward but stood a respective few feet away from the busty blonde and brunette with Lucy giving him a nervous expression and Cana looking at him expectantly.
"I will always be there for you Cana-chan! Any punk ass kid like blondie over there who tries to date you will have to go through me! I will never leave you again! I promise!" Gildarts claimed as he growled at Naruto to show his protective nature as father.
Mira and Erza seemed to get annoyed at the 'blondie' comment towards their love interest while Naruto merely raised an eyebrow.
"Stop being so overprotective Gildarts! Yeah, you say you won't leave but as soon as an adventure comes you won't be back in the guild for months at a time!" Cana sputtered out at his declaration with his expression showing she didn't really believe him.
Gildarts began to cry into his natural arm looking like a kicked puppy much to the discomfort of the guild in general.
"My only daughter doesn't believe in me! Why have the gods forsaken me? What must I do to prove my devotion to my Cana-chan?" Gildarts cried out as Cana notably cringed at his attitude.
'Maybe you shouldn't have adopted Natsu and even Naruto as the sons you never had? I mean I was here the entire time and you didn't even notice I was your kid!' Cana thought bitterly before she shook her head mentally.
'Oh sheesh. I can't keep holding it against him as I was too much a coward to just tell him in the first place. All Gildarts… Tou-chan needs to do is just be there in the guild and then I can see him as someone I can call father to his face.' Cana thought in realization choosing to not say it out loud.
Cana seeing the sombre mood to the point where Naruto unwrapped himself from Mira and Erza decided she needed to bring up the mood of the guild. In what way? The only way she knew how by teasing her close friend and innocent Lucy Heartfillia.
"So, Lucy? What is your move going to be?" Cana asked Lucy with a teasing grin as she turned to the busty blonde Celestial spirit wizard.
"Huh move? What are you talking about Cana?" Lucy as she tiled her head innocently not understanding Cana inneduo.
"I mean Kinana-chan got Naruto to hug her with her 'new' chest prominently shown, Erza wore that sexy 'bride' outfit and Mira squeezed into Naruto first and even rested her face into his shoulder. See those are moves that girls use to show their affection. What is your move going to be Lucy?" Cana teased with a wide grin.
Cana enjoyed Kinana turning scarlet and pressing her face into her hands looking rather cute despite her more mature appearance, Erza looked rather proud of herself while Mira whistled innocently but kept glancing at the pleased looking Naruto out the corner of her eyes.
"My… move? What kind of girl do you think I am? I am not that kind of girl who would do things like that!" Lucy insisted but Happy and Natsu gave her dry looks and looked unimpressed.
"Lucy… You got to accept that you kinda give off the vibe of a girl who would undress for a reward." Natsu stated flatly as Lucy eye twitched.
"You did wear that Maid outfit on our first official job together." Happy added cheerfully.
Several males started to look rather happy as they imagined the busty blonde celestial wizard in a maid outfit on her knees offering 'to help her masters' with the men having hearts in their eyes and perverted smiles.
"Stop saying it out of context! That outfit was just for the job as the client was supposed to like girls in maid outfits! Nothing weird even happened! I just happened to rock the outfit because I am me!" Lucy insisted looking proud for herself for a moment before she scowled at the men.
"Stop imaging me in creepy situations! I wouldn't do things like that ever!" Lucy growled as she looked creeped out putting her hands in front of her chest protectively.
Cana gave a cheerful laugh while Juvia laughed softly in her hand for her 'rival in love' being humiliated.
"Lucy… in a maid outfit?" Gray mumbled with a slight blush making Juvia scowl instead as she stared daggers at Lucy instead who looked rather offended.
"It was a one-time thing! Plus, I can't help it if Gray is thinking about it! Stop glaring at me Juvia!" Lucy shouted back at Juvia who was frowning and foaming out the mouth.
'Not to self… Juvia needs to find a maid outfit to show Gray who the real women and not a silly girl like Lucy!' Juvia decided with a determined look.
Cana laughed as she wrapped an arm around Lucy giving her a look over.
"Hmm Do you happen to have anything sexier to wear? I mean the skirt and white shirt thing is kinda your thing now so it doesn't have the 'wow' factor anymore." Cana asked with a hum.
"Cana-chan! Maybe you should back off abit. Lucy doesn't seem like…" Gildarts started sounding fatherly before a perverted smile appeared on his face to Cana and Lucy's disgust.
"Keep it to yourself old man! Sheesh! You have so much trouble of the idea of me dating anyone but you creep on my friends with that smile on your face which is creepy!" Cana yelled in disgust as she sent a karate chop at Gildarts.
Gildarts didn't look physically hurt but her attack but he looked shocked she would actually strike him judging by his puppy dog look.
"Anyways Lucy do you have anything better right now?" Cana asked ignoring the whimpering Gildarts.
"What's wrong with my clothes? Anyways I can't do Transformation or Requip magic like Erza-san or Mira-chan so I can't just magic my wardrobe on me!" Lucy insisted as Cana gave a look of understanding.
"Ah that's right. Plus, even those Spirit World clothes don't really have that 'wow' factor as they all seem pretty conservative all things considered based on the ones, I have seen you in." Cana noted with a frown as she rubbed her chin several times in contemplation.
"Is this really needed? I mean I think Naruto is at least somewhat interested in Lucy if he willing to kiss her on the cheek out of nowhere." Bisca commented with a nervous smile as she closed her eyes and rubbed the back of her head.
"Ah I got it! I know how you can wow Naruto right here and here now! That way you can keep up with Mira and Erza!" Cana exclaimed as she opened her eyes and had a look of epiphany making Lucy jump slightly at how serious Cana was looking.
"Wait… I never said I wanted to compete with…. Erza-san or Mira-chan…." Lucy mumbled looking uncomfortably but she did have an eye focused on Cana as if waiting for her answer.
Naruto turned to Erza and Mira with a look of confusion.
"Uh are you both okay with this? I mean I don't really get the whole competition thing but don't people usually not want other people to help their… rivals I guess?" Naruto asked awkwardly showing he at least partly understood this was about him in some manner as he rubbed his cheeks nervously.
Erza smiled and shook her head as she waved her hand lazily.
"Of course I am oaky with this! I look forward to any competition especially when it comes to you Naruto. You are someone who is worth competing for." Erza stated bluntly as both Naruto and Lucy had a slight blush at her words.
"Hey! I never said I was… in a competition for Naruto or anything…" Lucy mumbled looking rather unconvincingly as her blush and her swaying on the soles of her feet.
"Yeah right…" The guild told the busty blonde with dry expressions even as she pouted.
"I am also fine with whatever Cana has in mind. I would like to see what Lucy can do as well. I don't feel threatened or anything. I am happy to see Naruto-kun happy in whatever way makes him happy." Mira stated playfully smiling when Naruto looked touched even as he looked embarrassed as well.
Meanwhile Kinana and Lisanna were hiding behind the counter with blushes on her face.
"How can your big sister say something like that with a straight face?" Kinana whispered to her close friend with a look of disbelief.
"I have no idea. Considering Mira-Nee used to threaten to gut anyone who looked at her the wrong way I am stumped on she is okay being in competition with Naruto-kun who she loves dearly." Lisanna admitted with a look of awe at how confident and calm her older sister was acting.
"Maybe that is what love is? Being able to accept the person you love being in love with more then one person?" Kinana suggested despite her blush.
Lisanna seemed to take that suggestion with a serious look of contemplation. Lisanna appeared to look over at Lucy, Erza, Kinana and especially Mira with a serious look.
'Nee-chan… What would happiness with Naruto-kun be?' Lisanna thought as she closed her eyes before looking down at her at her hands. She just shook her head even as Kinana gave her a rather knowing smile.
"Why do I think Cana will give me some suggestion that will make me want to crawl in a hole and disappear?" Lucy mumbled looking rather put off even as Cana gave her a warm pat on the back.
"Oh, come on! Would I ever do something scandalous or ask something to do something indecent?" Cana asked in a joking tone.
Instantly everyone looked at Cana's chest which was covered in essentially a bra without a shirt on exposing a great deal of her large breasts and her well toned stomach. Her hips and slim waist showing an hourglass figure was not covered with a lack of a shirt. Gildarts coughed as he put his armoured arm out and looked menacingly at anyone starring at his daughter as everyone looked away and whistled innocently. Cana rolled her eyes at her overprotective father attempt to 'shield' her even as she made no attempts to stop people from staring at her chest.
"Anyways. My move is rather simple. Since Lucy doesn't have any sexy outfits from the Celestial spirit world, the ability to summon clothing like Erza or change her outfits like Mira… There is only one way Lucy can compete with our S-class beauties." Cana stated seriously as everyone seemed to lean in to hear Cana's words.
"Hey! Don't I get an opinion here?" Lucy mumbled but even she couldn't help but looked interested in Cana's words.
"You will need to take off your shirt and flash Naruto right now! There is the only real one you will be able to one up Mira or Erza at this point." Cana stated with a completely serious expression.
"…." There was crickets in the distance that could be heard. The guild was so silent for about 20 seconds nobody said a word.
"What?! Why would I willingly flash my…. I mean why would I lift let alone take off my shirt?!" Lucy screamed as her entire face turned red and she shook her head several times in denial.
"Why are you freaking out so much? Is it because we are in the guild? I am sure Naruto can take you to his home or your house for privacy." Cana asked cheerfully even as Naruto and Lucy had identical blushes on their faces.
"That is not the point Cana!" Lucy stated as she put her hands on her hips looking rather annoyed and embarrassed.
Cana tilted her head as if she genuinely seemed confused at Lucy's anger before she grinned making Lucy take a step back.
"Unless…. You aren't wearing a bra so taking off your shirt will reveal your girls in their natural unbound state?" Cana suggested with a wriggle of her eyebrows and a saucy grin on her face.
Even before Lucy could respond once again Makarov, Wakaba and Gildarts got bloody noses as they gave perverted looks towards the horrified blonde.
"Of course I am wearing a bra! Who do you take me for?!" Lucy stated passionately before she put one arm over her chest and the other on the bottom of her shirt.
"Stop looking! My shirt isn't going anywhere!" Lucy shouted as she saw a majority of the males looking at her breasts with interest as if they were going to pop out randomly.
"Oh come on Lucy! You have nothing to be feel embarrassed about! You are easily on the same level as Mira and Erza in boobs. I mean they certainly feel firm enough." Cana noted as she looped an arm around Lucy's shoulder. The thing that made Lucy go wide eyed was Cana taking one of her breasts and giving it a firm squeeze with her other hand.
"Eeep! Don't touch me there!" Lucy squealed as she notably started to breathe heavily and pant as she resisted the urge to let out a moan in the middle of the guild even as Cana gave her right breast a firm squeeze.
A majority of the men had goofy smiles as they blushed watching this rather erotic scene of busty woman groping the chest of another busty woman with the second woman blushing like crazy.
"What a day to return too…." Makarov mumbled as he not so subtly looked rather pleased as Wakaba nodded his head eagerly.
Gildarts had wiped his bloody nose clean and looked away with a conflicted look. He did not seem to want to watch his daughter in any sort of erotic scene even if it was with a girl he was checking out not even an hour ago.
"Still bouncy as ever Lucy! I gotta to say I am pretty jealous. I don't get this kind of attention and you are the one wearing a shirt." Cana teased with a grin as she continued to hold onto Lucy's right breast while breathing heavily into the blonde's ear.
"Cana…. Please…. Stop…." Lucy groaned which despite her best efforts let out a feminine groan which made the jaws of almost every man drop at the beautiful blonde.
Carla flew up to cover Wendy's eyes with her body while using her own paws to cover her own eye at the 'indecency'.
"Wendy! Don't listen to them! You must not follow in their footsteps!" Carla insisted while Wendy seemed to have a depressed look behind Carla.
"So bouncy… Lucy-san and Cana-san….'" Wendy mumbled as despite her own blush she looked just as embarrassed as depressed.
Mira and Erza exchanged sheepish expressions as they rubbed their heads.
"I think we might have pushed Lucy abit far. I did not expect Cana to do something like that to Lucy." Mira admitted as Erza nodded numbly.
"We should stop this before it gets too much further. Lucy really isn't the top of girl who enjoys this sort of attention." Erza noted as she cracked her knuckles.
Mira and Erza exchanged a look and nod before the noticed Naruto with his head down.
"That Cana… She needs to be taught a lesson." Naruto mumbled as his spikey hair seemed to be flowing as breeze surrounded Naruto.
Mira and Erza shuddered before they wisely took a few feet back to give Naruto space.
Everyone attention went on high gear as Naruto let out a burst of blue lightning come out of his back as he vanished and appeared in front of Cana and Lucy. He had a completely serious expression as he gently but firmly pushed Cana's hand away from Lucy's breast using a burst of Sky Dragon Slayer magic.
"That's enough Cana. Leave Lucy alone." Naruto stated coolly as he put an arm in front of Lucy as if to protect her.
"Naruto… Thank you… You didn't have to but I appreciate it." Lucy mumbled as she looked shyly to the ground as she subconsciously leaned towards Naruto protective back.
Cana saw how uncomfortable Lucy was and how serious Naruto looked as she raised her hands in surrender.
"Ok I will admit I might have taken my teasing too far. Sometimes I forget despite what Lucy wears she is still a pure girl who isn't used to this sort of attention." Cana sighed as she bowed her head briefly.
"Sorry Lucy!" The guild chanted when Naruto turned his serious expression towards them with certain men whistling innocently as if they weren't just checking out Lucy being groped.
"As Cana-chan's father I take responsibility for her actions. I would like you to forgive her." Gildarts stated as he bent down a knee and bowed his head.
"Hey! I don't need you to apologize on my behalf Gildarts! I am not a little girl! I can speak for myself!" Cana stated with annoyance as she gave a karate chop to Gildarts head as he bowed down.
Rather then seemingly doing anything to Gildarts he just turned around with a goofy smile.
"I love you too Cana-chan! Your father will always love you no matter what you do!" Gildarts promised with a thumbs up making Cana shudder slightly.
The guild looked rather amused at the newly reunited father and daughter duo were not the traditional parent and child relationship.
"Don't worry too much about it Lucy-chan. I am sure Naruto likes you no matter what you do." Bisca told her warmly with an amused and motherly smile as Lucy looked shyly down.
"That's right Lucy. I have never really had any sort of competition in my mind. I like people for different reasons rather than favouring one over another. For me Lucy Heartfillia is someone dear to me and I don't care if she is confident as Erza or Mira. You are special because you are Lucy and that all that matter to me." Naruto told his fellow blond with a simply but warm smile.
Lucy face turned red as it seemed to be steaming but she nodded slowly.
"Hai Naruto… I… Um… like you too the way you are…" Lucy stuttered looking rather shy as she covered her face in embarrassment but she had a pleased smile underneath her hands.
Naruto smile grew bigger as he slid next to Lucy and gave her a sideway hug bringing her head to his shoulder and wrapping an arm around her waist.
"You really are something special Lucy. I am lucky to have you in my life and for me to be special to you too." Naruto told her as he let out a pleased sigh as her sweet scent floated into his nose.
Lucy didn't say anything even as she smiled and leaned into his embrace. Mira and Erza exchanged exasperated smiles but then smiled when they saw how pleased Naruto was. Wendy grinned even as Carla crossed her arms in annoyance. The most shocking reaction was from Bisca who actually clapped and squealed getting disbelief looks at the beautiful mother.
"Finally! I have to say this is great! I have been waiting for Naruto to get over whatever held him back and show affection back to the girls who wanted him for years!" Bisca shouted with a smug smile.
Lisanna, Kinana and Lucy turned bright red while Mira and Erza gave Bisca a pouting expression. Meanwhile Naruto raised an eyebrow.
"Excuse me? What are you my big sister or something? The closest I had to a sister growing up would probably be Shizune-Nee-Chan or Sakura-Chan and I gotta say I don't think either of them would want me to 'go after a lot of girls' as you are suggesting." Naruto retorted back but seemed more amused than anything.
"What are you doing Bisca? Why are bringing this up?" Alzack whispered to Bisca who waved him off.
"Alright then my little brother Naruto. I am okay being your loving big sister who will teach you all the things you need to know about wooing and keeping girls happy!" Bisca claimed with a smile as she crossed her arms over her now abundant chest.
"So will Naruto-Nii-chan be my uncle then?" Asuka asked innocently with a head tilt as Alzack and Naruto looked displeased at that.
"You can just keep calling me big brother. That will be the same Asuka-chan." Naruto assured her as Asuka nodded her head eagerly.
"Okay Naruto-Nii-chan!" Asuka chirped as Alzack readjusted her cowgirl hat so it wouldn't fall off her head when she nodded her head.
"So, what do you think? DO you think you would like me to be your older sister?" Bisca asked cocking her hip to the side which Naruto ignored as he focused on her taunting smile.
"Alright. I just can't see you in the romantic way in any way as you clearly already have the love of your life and even have a daughter so I just don't see you in that way. For me someone who truly in love isn't someone I would consider having an interest in even physically." Naruto stated firmly as he eyed Bisca and Evergreen out the corner of his eyes.
Elfman and Alzack let out sighs of relief when Evergreen and Bisca gave Naruto nods of approval. Naruto also gave a subtle nod to Juvia who seemed to nearly cry out in relief while Gray gave him an odd look and shrug.
"That is a good way to see it. I can see why girls would be interested in you but like you I just don't see in that way. I can only see Alzack in any sort of romantic way." Bisca replied back giving Alzack a wide smile who returned especially when Asuka just clapped her hands.
This got warm smiles from the entire guild before Naruto tilted his head.
"Wait Nee-chan…" Naruto started testing out the sibling honorific as Bisca nodded her head.
"You act like this has been a thing you have been hoping for awhile now. When exactly did you think more then one girl was interested me in some way?" Naruto asked as he puffed out his cheeks and tapped his cheek in concentration.
"Well… It all started in the Miss Fairy Tail Contest all the years ago… Mira-chan and Erza wore those outfits and seemed to be actively trying to get your attention. I have known them for years now and I know they wouldn't have tried so hard if they won't trying to one up each other for your…." Bisca started before she shuddered as Mira and Erza's eyes darkened.
Before Bisca could react, Mira and Erza dashed forward and placed their hands over her mouth to keep her quiet.
"….. It was nice to dress up for once. If Naruto-kun happened to look it wasn't exactly a bad thing." Mira tried to deflect but smiled when Naruto beamed up at them.
"Aright. It's not a big secret or anything. Getting Naruto's seal of approval was my main goal besides trying to outshine Mira." Erza admitted bluntly as Mira pouted at her rival and friend.
This seemed to trigger the males of the guild as most of them had happy grin at 'Nurse Erza' and 'Schoolgirl Mira' from the Miss Fairy Tail contest appeared in their minds.
"That was a good day lads. It might never happen again but nobody can take that memory away from us." Makarov noted with a perverted grin shared with many men.
"Sheesh… You are making me regret not coming back sooner from my failed 100-year quest master." Gildarts complained but winced when Cana glared at him for his comment.
"Cough…. I missed you guys even more! If I was back, I could have cheered you on more!" Gildarts tried to deflect only to get his daughter's eye to twitch.
Wendy and Kinana looked horrified as they looked at the guild.
"Mira-san and Erza-san were wearing skimpy outfits to impress Sensei?" Wendy sputtered as Lucy gave a nervous chuckle and nod.
'I wouldn't do it back then but I wonder if Naruto-kun would have liked it if I did that now? I wonder where you could buy outfits like that?' Kinana wondered with a slight blush.
"I feel everyone would not be as happy if I or Levy-chan were the ones who did that on stage." Lisanna stated flatly with a pout.
"Don't remind me!" Levy complained as her head dropped onto the table in depression.
"Hehe… I guess I am a super lucky guy after all." Naruto admitted as Lucy slid off him leaving a foot between them.
Elfman with a surprisingly serious expression stomped over and crossed his arms as he glared at Naruto.
"What's up Elfman? You got something on your mind?" Naruto asked mildly but Elfman did not look amused.
"What is your deal Naruto?" Elfman asked bluntly making Naruto raise an eyebrow.
"Elfman!" Mira snapped at Elfman's tone but to her surprise Elfman sent her a mild glare.
"Sorry Nee-chan but I got to ask Naruto this so please keep quiet." Elfman retorted making Mira and Lisanna exchange a surprised look as Elfman never spoke this way to Mira before.
"Elfman Nii…" Lisanna mumbled but allowed her brother to speak.
"What has caused you to now show any kind of reciprocity to women's feelings? You seemed to ignore or be ignorant them before we came back. What changed?" Elfman demanded as everyone held their breath and waited for Naruto's response.
The guild held their breath as Gildarts rubbed the back of his head awkwardly.
"Hehe…. This is kinda getting serious huh? Are you suggesting Naruto of all people is showing affection just to get into your sister pants once and then dump her?" Gildarts asked as most of the girls including Cana, Mira and Erza glared at Gildarts for the suggestion.
"…. I respect Naruto as a man but as a brother I won't let anyone use Mira or Lisanna just for the sake of lust. They are far too important to me for anyone to break their hearts." Elfman declared as he let out a tired sigh.
"Elfman… You are something else." Evergreen whispered looking at Elfman rather touched at his loyalty as Freed and Bickslow had sly smiles behind her back at her obvious affection.
"Elfman you…." Erza grumbled as her eyes seemed to darken at Elfman accusations towards Naruto but to her surprise put his hand up to stop her.
"It's alright Erza. I can understand Elfman's feelings. I never had any real siblings myself but I can kinda feel if I had a sister I would act the same way Elfman is acting now." Naruto admitted as Elfman blinked in surprise.
"You are lucky to have each other. It almost makes me feel a tad jealous if I am being honest." Naruto noted with a warm smile at the three Strauss siblings.
"Naruto…." Elfman whispered looking a tad guilty now that Naruto didn't chastise his protectiveness.
"Naruto-kun… You…" Mira sighed as she crossed her arms over her chest.
'Naruto-kun you don't have to worry. My feelings for you are my own. They are not something you have to feel bad or guilty about.' Lisanna thought but she couldn't quite make herself say those words out loud.
"It's a common saying but when you are near death you start to revaluate what really matters to you. Usually, its due to old age but for soldiers its when you survive a near fatal incident. I have actually had quite a few near deth experinces." Naruto noted sombrely as the mood in the guild instantly become gloomy as everyone remembered that Naruto was from a world that had constant wars.
"Naruto… My boy…. You don't have anything to prove to anyone. If you don't want to talk about it then you don't have to." Makarov told him gently as he looked at the rest of the guild like he was waiting for someone to contradict him.
Naruto smiled at the grandfatherly concern Makarov had for him as usual as he shook his head in appreciation.
"It's alright. All those experiences make up who I am and I won't ever be ashamed of them or hide from." Naruto declared as Makarov proudly nodded his head.
"I am not even 40 years old yet and I already had quite a few experiences. Although I still only look 19 so I guess I am still pretty young all things considered hehe." Naruto noted trying to make a joke before he sighed when he saw nobody laugh.
"Okay that was lame." Naruto admitted before he clasped his hands together underneath his chin as he hovered in the air sitting on the air itself.
"Let's see. First Obito tried to kill me twice as baby. Once with a Kunai to my throat, then he put enough Paper bombs onto my blanket to detonate a house." Naruto started as a majority of the guild growled at the mention of Obito Uchiha who was the one who set all the bad things up in Naruto's world.
"Sensei… I know you are a kind soul and you can find the good in anyone but how can you talk about That Man with a smile and not want to curse his name?" Wendy asked with an angered look as her eyes narrowed and her hands clenched in anger.
Naruto smiled down at his students as he waved his hand as a breeze of Sky Dragon magic picked up Wendy and set her next to him as they sat together on a cushion of air.
"I can understand how Obito became the man he was and at the end of his life he chose to sacrifice himself to save me and the world he originally desired to enslave. No matter what he has done he died a hero in my eyes and that is how I choose to see him." Naruto explained gently as he gently rubbed his students long blue hair making Wendy sigh but lean her head against his arm.
"You really are too nice sometime Sensei and that isn't a bad thing I guess." Wendy pouted making Naruto laugh.
The guild and even Carla smiled at the gently interactions between Naruto and Wendy.
"He truly cares about her. I guess if there is someone who has to be her sensei he is probably the best choice." Carla whispered in defeat but with a small smile.
Naruto snapped his fingers as he seemed to remember what he was talking about before.
"Oh right. I kinda got sidetracked. We were yelling about why I have started to be more willing to show affection when before I seemed to be rather awkward about female attention." Naruto noted as he gave a chuckle.
Lucy sighed but had a sweet smile.
'He is still an idiot sometimes but he is my idiot… or I guess our idiot as I don't own him or anything.' Lucy thought fondly.
"Then Kurama tried to stab me with his claw which ended up killing Mom and Dad although I guess Dad was going to die from using the Reaper Death Seal anyways." Naruto noted calmly almost as he was talking about a list and not a near death experience.
Naruto felt Kurama uncomfortable emotions as he patted his chest and looked down where his original seal was under his hoodie.
"That's enough Kurama. I already accepted you weren't really at fault for that and already forgave you a long time ago. It's just listing simple facts at this point. It's part of our history." Naruto chided calmly before his smile grew warmer.
"You saved so many times and been with me for so long I couldn't imagine my life without you in it." Naruto admitted as the Tailed Beasts sent teasing smile as Kurama put his head in his paws in embarrassment at Naruto's declaration. Gyuki was the most amused remembering how Naruto declared how much he missed Yang Kurama and how embarrassed he was back then as well.
The guild looked touch at his declaration while a clueless Asuka tilted her head.
"Mama…. Why is Naruto-Nii talking to his stomach? Is he talking to imaginary friends?" Asuka asked innocently as the guild shuddered when they saw Naruto sigh for a moment.
"Um well…" Bisca muttered looking lost at what to say but luckily Naruto was there to save the day.
"Don't worry too much about it Asuka-chan. Your big bro is here and whenever you need something I will be there in an instant ready to listen!" Naruto promised cleverly avoiding the question with a happy declaration.
"Yay Nii-chan!" Asuka chirped happily more then sufficiently satisfied as she grinned up from Bisca's arms. Bisca sent Naruto a thankful smile who nodded.
"Then Kabuto slashed my heart when I was 12 and that was pretty close experience." Naruto commented as he tapped his chin.
"Number 5 was my first fight with Sasuke at the Valley of the End. We both were pretty exhausted but he could have killed me when I was unconscious so I count that too." Naruto added as he put 5 fingers up on his right hand.
"Number 6 is nearly having all my chakra sapped out of me from Obito's Ten Tails in the form of the God Tree. I saw what happens when people got all their chakra sapped out. They turned into basically mummies so that would have happened to me." Naruto continued down the list.
"Then Madara took Yang Kurama out of me which was very much a death except I lied on the brink of death until Ying Kurama was sealed inside me to restore the tailed beast ratio inside of me." Naruto shuddered at the thought.
"Lastly Acnologia's Breath attack which nearly killed us all if not for Mavis-chan's Fairy Sphere spell saved us. That is 8 times I have considered myself at the brink of death." Naruto finished off the list with a sigh.
Everyone gave him looks of sympathy with Mavis notably being one of the saddest as she clenched her hands.
'Nobody should have had to live like that especially someone who is so good and pure.' Mavis thought sadly.
"So, to answer your question, Elfman. The reason why I am now able to be someone who can show affection when given affection is because I don't want to live with regrets anymore. So is someone likes me in some way I want to show them I can also like them as well." Naruto told Elfman proudly.
Elfman looked at Naruto seriously for a moment before nodding his head.
"I am glad your answer was so pure Naruto. It shows that you can look deeper into a woman then surface level. You can truly want more then just a physical thing." Elfman noted as he gave a nod of approval making Mira and Lisanna sigh but smile.
Everyone grinned at the scene before Bisca blinked in realization.
"Um… Mavis-chan? Is that someone we should know about?" Bisca asked as the people not sent to Tenrou Island had identical looks of confusion.
Bisca smile turned teasing as she wriggled her eyebrows.
"Is that Another girl my little Naruto-kun has charmed and waiting for Big Sis Bisca to approve?" Bisca suggested as she put Asuka back into Alzack's arm to slide over to put one arm over Naruto's shoulder. This had the unintended side effect to press her larger breasts into his arm.
Much to Alzack and a majority of the females in the guild Naruto looked completely unaffected with the breasts pressed against him. He seemingly was sincere with his statement he simply did not find her attractive to him due to her finding her true love already. Naruto did raise an eyebrow at his 'older sister' teasing tone but he had the smallest smile on his face.
'This isn't bad. A different kind of love. It's not the same as Shizune-Nee but its still nice.' Naruto thought as he briefly looked at the Guild Hall doors which he knew Mavis was watching.
Meanwhile Mavis face had turned red hearing Bisca's words as she nervously played with her fingers.
'Being one of Naruto's 'girls'….. Would that be so bad? I mean I have never felt this way before and just being around Naruto makes me heart throb and give me so much happiness.' Mavis thought looking up briefly.
Makarov coughed getting Bisca's attention as he tried to not look at Bisca's chest.
"It's not like that Bisca. Actually, Mavis is…." Makarov started before Naruto smirked as he pointed at the door.
"Why don't you introduce yourself Mavis-chan? You have been waiting for a chance like this after all." Naruto declared as the non Tenrou Island looked shock and turned to the door.
After a moment Naruto sighed as he crossed his arms.
"Look. If you don't come in then I will come out and drag you in. I won't let you push people away Mavis-chan." Naruto warned with a disappointed look.
Naruto used his left hand putting his pointer and middle finger up while he used his to wrap around his 4th finger and pinky down. He vanished in a puff of smoke as everyone looked around.
"Huh? Did Naruto teleport or something?" Erza asked as she waved her hand to blow away the remaining smoke that was lazily drifting away.
There was another poof of smoke as Naruto reappeared with Mavis in his arms.
"Nope not teleportation. It was the Body Flicker Jutsu. It's a high-speed technique that Ninjas use for a quick get away or move large distances in short periods of time. It just looks quick enough to be teleportation but think of just dashing very quickly all at once. Don't worry too much about the exact differences as even people like Dad sometimes refers to his own Time-Space Jutsu as the Body Flicker Jutsu." Naruto explained with an ironic smile as if commenting on an inside joke.
Naruto gently set Mavis down on her feet as Mavis turned to Fairy Tail with a smile.
"Hello Fairy Tail. I suppose I should introduce myself again. My name is Mavis Vermillion and I am one of the Founders of Fairy Tail and the First Guild Master of Fairy Tail." Mavis introduced herself as she used her hands to pick up the edges of her white and pink dress and do a polite curtsey.
"First Master?! You mean Shodaime-Sama has been alive this entire time and still looks this young?!" Laki yelled with her face comically surprised which was mirrored by a majority of the members of Fairy Tail who stayed behind. Kinana notably just tilted her head cutely since she was a relatively new member and did not know about Fairy Tail history before she joined.
"Actually…. I am not alive… Well not really. You can call me a spirit or Thought Projection or just think of me as Mavis. You don't need to call me Shodaime-sama or anything." Mavis tried to explain as she put her hands out and blushed slightly at all the attention.
'It's so awkward…. I don't know what to say….' Mavis thought nervously.
While the members who stayed behind gaped at Mavis, Makarov seemed at a loss to explain what was happening while Naruto just sighed.
"Mavis-chan. You are Mavis no matter what state you are in. You are the person who found me first and you were my first important person I had in Earthland. Do not put yourself down as if you are someone who is inferior in any way to anyone else." Naruto stated firmly to Mavis starring down into her green eyes with kind but firm eyes.
"Naruto…. You always seem to say exactly what a girl wants to hear…" Mavis pointed out as she blushed looking away while Naruto tilted his head.
"Hmmm…. You make me sound like a flirt but I have never really seen it that way. If anything, I feel I am just honest." Naruto commented as he chuckled nervously when he turned around.
The females of Fairy Tail gave him unamused smiles as if he just said something annoying.
"Uh huh. You just keep thinking that Naruto. Although it's not a bad thing, I guess. Could be a worst trait as you are not saying things just to get attention like Loki did." Lucy added with a shudder. She glanced down tot see Loki's key glowing as if offended while she gave it a flat look.
"Tell me I am wrong Loki. Come on." Lucy retorted as the key flickered in light for a moment before the key no longer lit up.
Kinana turned to Lisanna looking at Mavis with interest.
"Is it that weird that… Um… Our first Master is here? I don't really see the big deal. She seems nice enough and pretty looking." Kinana whispered to her best friend.
Lisanna tried to not check out her much more mature best friend or sigh with envy at Kinana's now more mature figures and curves.
"It's not very weird to be honest. Considering how many adventures our guild goes through seeing our First Master as a ghost or whatever is not the most out there thing." Lisanna noted as Kinana nodded with a look of relief that Lisanna agreed.
Asuka had a bright smile at the new young woman as she struggled out of Alzack's arms who looked surprised but eventually released his daughter who landed on her feet with a happy squeal.
"It's a pretty Fairy Lady! Hi I am Asuka!" Asuka cheered as she ran forward at full speed with her arms stretched out trying to hug Mavis.
To her surprise and a majority of the guild Asuka ran through Mavis who sighed. Asuka couldn't stop herself since she was running at full speed and nearly ran head first into the bar counter much to everyone shock and worry. Luckily Naruto picked up Auka with one hand setting her on his shoulder making her squeal in delight.
"Okay up you go Asuka-chan. You sure are an excited child huh?" Naruto asked with an amused smile as she grinned up at him and nodded eagerly.
"Yup!" Asuka agreed before she pouted crossing her small arms.
"Why can't I hug the pretty Fairy Lady? I can see her but I can't hug her!" Asuka asked with a whine as the guild looked sad at the innocent girl question.
"I am sorry Asuka-chan. I am just a spirit so I don't have a physical form. Everything passes through me so I can't hug anyone." Mavis explained with a sigh and look of sadness as she looked at her hands.
Naruto used his right hand to pat her on the head and rub her long pale blonde hair gently.
"It's alright Mavis-chan. I am here for you. You don't need to worry about anything." Naruto told her warmly making Mavis smile as she leaned into his touch with a sigh of relief.
"Naruto…. Thank you… For everything… You have always been there for me and I am very grateful." Mavis told him shyly when he smiled at her and rubbed her cheek gently.
"I will always be here. You don't have to thank me for anything. If anything, I should thank you. I came to Fairy Tail because of you and before then you gave me a home and someone who cared about me." Naruto replied back gently and sincerely as his blue eyes stared deep in Mavis green eyes which seemed to be nearly tearing up.
"Naruto…." Mavis mumbled out in joy.
"Mavis…." Naruto warmly replied as they seemed to focus for a brief moment only on each other.
"Excuse me? You do realize we are still here, right?" Mira coughed into her hand with a slight jealous expression getting Mavis and Naruto to look over at the dumbfounded guild although several members like Cana, Bisca, Makarov, Gildarts and Kinana smirked and seemed more amused than anything else.
Asuka looked between Mavis and Naruto with a cute tilt of her head.
"Is the pretty lady and Naruto-Nii-chan like a Mama and Papa?" Asuka asked innocently as the guild seemed to be quiet as empty hall.
"…. Excuse me Asuka-chan? What did you say?" Mavis gasped as looked the young girl with wide eyes and her jaw dropped.
'I think this might be the first time the Shodaime has been shocked to her core. Asuka-chan should get a reward for making Fairy Tail legendary 'Fairy Tactician' completely off guard. If Mavis-sama was with us she likely would have made counter plans after counter plans for all our foes.' Makarov praised the clueless little girl.
"Hmm? You and Nii-chan are looking are each other like Mama and Papa do sometimes. They just keep telling me 'We will tell you later when you are older' but I know Mama and Papa are not telling me something!" Asuka explained cheerfully with a happy grin as if she was pleased at her detective work.
Naruto and Mavis exchanged looks before they looked a tad embarrassed as Naruto rubbed his head after setting Mavis down. Mavis covered her face as her notably darker redder cheeks almost shone through behind her hands.
"Naruto and I am not like that! We are just dear to each other! We are not together like your parents are!" Mavis explained with her tone a pitch higher then usual.
Asuka tilted her head again as she looked cutely confused.
"Huh? 'Together'? Mama and Papa?" Asuka asked confused as Naruto sent a look of exasperation to Asuka and Alzack.
Alzack covered his face in embarrassment while Bisca teasing smile turned sheepish as sent a sorry expression to Naruto and Mavis.
"Asuka-chan…. You really need to think it over before you say things or at least ask us if you are not sure. Things can get misunderstood if you say whatever you think of without thinking it over first." Alzack tried to explain gently as Naruto set Asuka gently onto the ground.
Asuka ran up to Alzack raising her arms up demanding to be held. Alzack instantly picked up his little girl and held her up to his shoulder as she pouted.
"Then explain Papa! Why is pretty lady Mavis-Nee-chan and Naruto-Nii-chan not like you are and Mama?" Asuka demanded with her cheeks puckered on and looking rather adorably. She crossed her arms and kept looking between Alzack and Bisca expectedly.
Her parents looked lost and looked at the guild for help. Naruto eye twitched when the majority whistled looking rather amused at the little girl question unknowingly at his expense.
Lucy sighed as she put a hand on her hip as she slapped her forehead and closed her eyes.
"The things I have to put up being in the guild. I swear if I didn't love this family as much as I did I would have left after a month of this craziness." Lucy commented as Erza frowned slightly.
"However…." Lucy then smirked with an amused smile making Erza smile.
"I wouldn't give up being here for anywhere. This is where my real home is after all." Lucy stated as she pulled out a silver Celastial Spirit Key out of the pouch she attached to her skirt.
"Open! Gate Cannis Minor. Come Nichola!" Lucy chanted as there was a blue gate of Spirit Magic that appeared in the spot where she waved the silver key. There was a doorbell like sound as several beams of yellow magic came out of the gate and then converged to form the spirit.
A very small white sprit came out the gate roughly the size of Happy the Cat. It was completely white except for its black eyes, Golden hornlike nose that resembled a carrot and its small black paws. It somewhat resembled a snowman as he shook nervously and waved with a 'Puu-puun!'.
"Isn't that Lucy's weird spirit Plue?" Juvia asked with a raised eyebrow but Mira shook her head.
"Juvia Dear. Plue is not just some spirit. She is Lucy's strongest spirit." Mira declared with a kind smile as the entire guild sweatdropped at the declaration.
"Right…. What powers does that spirit Plue I think have?" Kinana asked looking interested at the small creature who had been picked up by Lucy into her arms.
"Well to be honest he is pretty much just a pet. He doesn't really have any combat abilities and the amount of magic needed to keep him in this realm is pretty much nothing." Lucy admitted as she laughed nervously.
"Puu-Puun!" Plue stated as he pointed at Lucy who looked confused.
Natsu nodded his head as he crossed his arms.
"Ah I see. He wants Lucy to tell the guild about his special ability." Natsu explained as Lucy blinked.
"Wait you can understand what he is saying?!" Macao shouted in shock as Natsu raised an eyebrow.
"Why wouldn't I be able to? He tells us exactly what he wants." Natsu claimed looking like Macao said something strange.
Lucy shook her head as she smiled down at Plue who smiled up at her.
"Plue has a really great sense of smell. It is as good as Natsu's! Matter of fact if I needed to I could use him to track anyone from the guild." Lucy bragged with a smug look as Natsu nodded in agreement.
"You mean that drill thing is his nose?" Juvia asked Gray who shrugged.
"I guess so. I will take their word for it." Gray replied looking confused why Lucy even summoned Plue in the first place.
Lucy smirked when she tilted her head towards Asuka who looked wide eyed at the cute spirit.
"Asuka-chan! Why don't you say hi to Plue? He is very good at cuddling!" Lucy suggested as she gave Plue a look who nodded.
"Puu-Puun!" Plue chanted as he raised his tiny arms towards Asuka who looked at him with awe.
Lucy walked up to Asuka and Alzack as she lifted up Plue to Asuka's level.
"Papa! Mama! I want to play! Please? Please? Please? This can be my next Christmas Present! Also, my birthday present too!" Asuka pleaded as she put her hands together and begged with her bright eyes shining.
This adorable act got the guild to look fondly at the youngest member of Fairy Tail.
"Well…. If Lucy-chan and Plue are okay with it?" Bisca asked with a knowing look as Lucy giggled.
"Please Nee-chan! You are so pretty and kind and wonderful! You would be the best Nee-chan in the whole wide world!" Asuka begged as looked up at Lucy with her lip puckered and her eyes shining.
Lucy actually looked a tad smug making Gray and Juvia sweatdrop.
"I guess the best Big Sister in the whole wide world can't say no to the most adorable little sister in the whole wide world." Lucy replied slyly as she lowered Plue to Asuka level as he smiled happily.
Instantly the young girl took the small spirit into her arms and used him like a teddy. She appeared to be playing a game to see how much she could squeeze Plue and cuddle him at once.
"Hi Plue! I am Asuka and you are my new best friend! We will play house and drink lots of tea and have lots of fun!" Asuka rambled as she squeezed the little spirit who just kept smiling and making adorable movements.
Bisca smiled at Lucy who smiled back.
"Thank you for this. This will keep little Asuka-chan entertained for quite some time." Bisca told Lucy happily who nodded.
"No problem! Just another day for Lucy Heartfillia! The problem solver of Fairy Tail!" Lucy exclaimed as Bisca raised an eyebrow and nodded.
"Doesn't look like you did a lot to me Lucy. Little Plue is the one doing all the work here while you are taking all the credit." Juvia stated with a huff looking at Lucy out the corner of her eyes with a smug expression.
Gray sighed at Juvia once again riling up Lucy who couldn't help but react.
"Excuse me? Whose magic power do you think keeps Plue tethered here? Me of course! I bet your version of 'entertaining Asuka-chan' would to make a water bubble full of air over her head and freaking her out." Lucy replied back with a smug expression when Juvia growled in annoyance.
Before the two busty women could snipe at each other more Naruto clapped his hands together getting everyone attention except for Asuka who was still cuddling Plue and not focusing on anything else.
"That's enough. You are both exceptional in different ways." Naruto stated giving them both a nod as Lucy smiled shyly while Juvia just gave a simple nod.
"That was rather in genius of you Lucy. Summoning your strongest spirit Plue to entertain Asuka-chan was quite clever." Mira praised as Lucy rubbed her head in embarrassment from the praise from the beautiful white-haired model.
This made the guild sweat at Mira's description to the point where Kinana slipped next to Lisanna with a questioning look.
"Is Plue-san really Lucy's strongest spirit? He doesn't seem to have much combat abilities." Kinana asked her best friend who sweatdropped.
"Don't mind Mira-Nee too much. This is just how she is. I don't know either why she thinks Plue is Lucy's strongest spirit but its better not to ask her." Lisanna whispered as Kinana nodded fearfully.
Mavis then gave Lucy a grateful look even as she looked over to see the content Asuka squeezing Plue like he was a teddy.
'Plue should be alright. Despite only being a silver key he is still a Celestial Spiri and Asuka-chan is a just a child.' Mavis thought even as Plue appeared to be smothered a few times from Asuka tight hugs.
"Thank you, Lucy, and Plue. This distraction was just what we needed. Asuka-chan's questions were abit too…." Mavis trailed off with a slight blush as she glanced at Naruto's smiling face looking rather sheepish.
'Oh? Is this perhaps another rival in love for Naruto-san? As long as Mavis-sama stays away from Gray-sama, Juvia approves!' Juvia thought happily seeing that first Master was looking at Naruto rather shyly and fondly.
"Hey Gramps? Now that you are back who is the guild master?" Natsu yelled out of nowhere making Erza slam a fist into his head for his rude comment.
"Natsu! You have to think before you speak especially on such a subject." Erza chided as Natsu pouted even as he rubbed his head in pain.
"Okay then! But it is abit confusing since we have the First Master, Gramps the third master and Macao the 4th Master all in the same room!" Natsu whined as the guild actually took his words seriously.
"Huh. Natsu does make an interesting point. We can hardly have three Guild masters acting at the same time as they would cause a lot of confusion especially with Magic Council requiring, we need a registered Master at all time." Freed noted with a hand on his chin.
'I wonder who would be willing to end Laxus-sama's banishment? Who do I speak to as Laxus-sama I believe has paid the price for his pride already.' Freed secretly thought as he glanced at Laxus who looked out of place.
The guild looked between Mavis, Macao and Makarov with interest as Macao was the first one to rub his head in embarrassment.
"Hehe. This is abit awkward but I will make it easier. I only took the job because everyone was missing so I am more then happy to retire and give the position back. Truth be told its not quite as glamorous as people make it out to be." Macao admitted as he bowed his head and chuckled.
As everyone besides Makarov gave him confused looks Naruto instead gave him a sympathetic look.
"Paperwork must have been quite annoying huh?" Naruto suggested with a knowing look as Macao blinked and nodded.
"Yeah, that was definitely not in the brochure about being Guild Master but how did you know about it?" Macao asked in confusion.
Naruto had a fond look for a moment before he sighed.
"I planned to be Hokage and you have no idea how much the Hokage I knew complained about it. Old Man Third Hokage was swamped, Tsunade-Baa-chan had to constantly make time in the day to squeeze it in and even Kakashi-Sensei seemed abit surprised just how much he was expected to on a regular basis. I only assume that being Guild Master to the most destructive guild in Fiore would have similar paperwork." Naruto pointed out before he sweatdropped when he saw Makarov and Macao head drop with comically sad expressions.
"I mean… Maybe it wasn't so bad when we were at Tenrou Island ad habits die hard especially when Natsu back." Naruto joked as the guild couldn't help but snort when Natsu pouted.
"Alright alright. Now that Macao has formally decided to withdraw his bid for being Guild Master again now its just up to Master Makarov or Master Mavis to take the post of 5th Guild Master of Fairy Tail." Erza pointed out as the two Former Guild Masters looked bemused at the title of '5th' Guld Master.
"Makes us sound so old when you say 5th…" Makarov commented with a dry smile as Mavis nodded.
"You telling me. Its been many generations since I have been Guild Master and being called the 5th would make me sound the age thing even more real." Mavis whined before she shrugged.
Makarov turned to Mavis expectantly as she looked wide eyed putting her hands up.
"Hey! Not me 3rd Master! First of all people cannot see me who is not Fairy Tail member and my time has long since past since I passed the torch to the future generations!" Mavis insisted as Makarov sighed.
"Well then I suppose I have no choice…." Makarov stated as he was about to appoint Gildarts before Macis raised her hand up to everyone surprise.
"Can I suggest an alternative to Makarov having to resume as 5th?" Mavis asked with her eyes shining as everyone looked at her and nodded.
"Of course, 1st Master! Any suggestion you make will be taken seriously!" Mira replied eagerly as everyone looked at Mavis with respect.
Mavis nodded in appreciation before she floated over to Naruto and looked at him expectantly.
"No…. You don't mean…" Naruto stuttered looking at Mavis with surprise even as she smiled broadly at him.
"Why not? Your goal was to be Hokage one day and although I cannot grant you that wish, I feel being the 5th Master of Fairy Tail would be the next best thing as you could guide our family and protect us." Mavis pointed out as her eyes grew soft.
Naruto looked around and to his surprise it seemed that nobody in the guild actually had any major issues with the suggestion with even his team giving him warm expressions and thumbs up.
"Well, that is surprising. I still remember like it was yesterday when the majority of the guild actually bet against me when Erza and I fought. You guys were not even neutral to the idea of me winning a fight against your more well-known S-class but you are now okay with me being Guild Master of the entire guild?" Naruto pointed out skeptically.
The majority of the guild winced at the reminder with newer members like Juvia. Gajeel, Wendy, and Kinana looking surprised how ashamed the guild was. Asuka luckily was still being amused by Plue just being very cuddly teddy bear like so didn't notice the sombre mode.
"Yeah…. That was a different time. I will admit we were kinda being jerks back then and I meant it more as a joke and friendly bet. I can admit and see how offensive it was to be take bets let alone encourage the behaviour." Cana openly admitted as Gildarts looked at his daughter with surprise.
'Wow maybe I should have come back sooner. I did not the guild was hazing Naruto even unintentionally when he first came here.' Gildarts thought as he could feel disappointment creep into his chest.
Erza glared at the rest of the guild as she tapped her foot impatiently.
"I hope you remember that Master and I never intended the fight to be something that would take Naruto's S-class ranking even I had won. I lost fair and square but if anyone has something to say then you can say it now or hold your peace." Erza warned as her eyes darkened but turned normal when nobody said anything.
Makarov hummed before he looked at Naruto putting his hand out expectantly.
"Well then Naruto my boy? What do you have to say? I feel on behalf of Fairy Tail we would be honoured if you be the 5th Guild Master as the new blood we need for this new era!" Makarov asked Naruto who closed his eyes thinking it over.
"….. Not a chance…" Naruto opened his eyes and stated firmly after less then a minute of thought crossing his arms.
"….. Eh?!" Everyone in the guild asked before they crowed Naruto who looked bemused at the shocked expressions.
"Hey back up! I feel honoured and everything as I know it's a big deal and honour to even be asked to be Guild Master but it just doesn't make sense for me to be the 5th Master." Naruto explained putting his hand up in surrender.
"Like? Please elaborate." Mavis asked quietly but Naruto could sense the hurt she had in her green eyes.
Naruto felt like a jerk when he saw the hurt in her eyes and the surprise in Makarov's eyes. Naruto took a deep breath before giving Mavis a quick hug.
"It's not that I don't want the job or that I think the job is beneath me. Trust me I am beyond honoured to even be asked let alone seriously considered." Naruto admitted as he rubbed Mavis's long blonde hair with a fond smile.
"But?" Mavis asked looking at Naruto with calmer more expectant eyes.
"….. Honestly, I am just not cut out for the job. I don't want to be the one assigning jobs and expecting people to do them. I don't want to tell people how they should grow or have people come up to me thinking I have all the answers. I would rather take the jobs I want and try to help everyone as a friend not a superior." Naruto admitted sighing making everyone look at him in surprise.
"Wow… I never knew you would feel that way Naruto. I mean I can understand why you would feel that way but that was very honest and raw." Lucy noted before smiling softly.
"I like the way you are now. Just being Naruto is enough for me, you don't need to be Guild Master for me to follow you wherever you go." Lucy added sincerely.
The guild turned to Lucy who took a moment before she blushed realizing what she said.
"Hehe. Thank you, Lucy. I like you the way you are too. You are very pretty when you speak your mind. Just remember you are one of us and not someone who is inferior in any way." Naruto replied back warmly grinning when Lucy blushed and looked away.
'Huh I didn't expect that from Lucy. I will say that was a BOLD move after all.' Cana thought looking impressed.
Naruto then turned comical as he pouted.
"Plus, who would take me seriously as guild master? I mean the other guild Masters and Magic Council would probably make fun of me due to my age and think I am not wise or experienced enough to handle the responsibilities!" Naruto whined as the guild let out a loud chuckle for this comment.
"Haha, I suppose that is true. It is nice how humble Naruto-san is despite his strength." Freed noted with Laxus giving a nod of respect.
After a few minutes everyone turned back to Mavis and Makarov looking at them expectantly.
"Sigh I suppose I can take the role again at least for a few years before I find a successor." Makarov stated dramatically.
"I thought I could finally retire and leave the job to someone else but I guess not." Makarov mumbled under his breath which only the Dragon Slayers caught by their slight twitch of their ears.
Just as the guild was about to cheer for the return of Makarov, Naruto raised a hand up getting everyone attention.
"Just a moment. I have a suggestion and I am not reconsidering taking the job Master." Naruto said flatly when Makarov gave him a look of hope.
"Fine. Who would you suggest be 5th Master if not yourself?" Makarov asked as he looked at Naruto intensely.
"Why not Gildarts? He is still in his prime, he is already known as our 'Ace' so his strength is not lacking. He is well known and respected in our guild and the world." Naruto suggested as everyone turned to Gildarts with expectant looks.
Gildarts looked like a fish out of water with his jaw dropped as he growled.
"Now just wait a minute! I have never shown I want the position!" Gildarts insisted as he looked uncomfortable at the prospect.
"Plus, it would be an excuse to stay in the guild and get to know Cana on a more personal level. You would be here in Magnolia 24/7 and you could assign her jobs that would fit her strengths." Naruto added with a knowing grin.
"….!" Gildarts stopped mid rant as his eyes widened in surprise.
Gildarts and Cana exchanged shocked expressions before turning to Makarov who put his thumb under his chin and hummed.
"Hmmm Gildarts. I never considered it but he would actually be a fine candidate for the position. What do you think First Master?" Makarov asked turning to Mavis who blinked.
"If you and Naruto think he is the best choice you have my support. Have only heard rumours about Gildart's strength so I have no real opinion but I will trust in your judgement 3rd Master." Mavis replied cheerfully.
"Gildarts as Master? Eh who cares! It would sound cool to see the Old Man do paper work though." Natsu thought out loud as Lucy and Happy gave him dry looks.
"Not exactly a glowing recommendation but I would agree to Gildarts-san if it was up to a vote." Lucy added her two cents.
Everyone in the guild gave nods of approval except Cana who scoffed.
"Please. If you give Gildarts the job, he will take it for a day then run off in a week after ditching us." Cana scoffed looking away from Gildarts hurt expression.
"Cana! That is abit uncalled for!" Lucy chided while Cana bit her lip looking away.
'Ah I see. She is still hurt I left all those times without a word. Well, I can show her I can change and be the father she needs.' Gildarts thought as he pushed the hurt away.
"I can show you I am ready to be Guild Master Cana-chan. Master if you would have me, I will formally accept the position of 5th Guild Master." Gildarts declared as he got onto his knees bowing towards Makarov with a look of determination.
Makarov looked at Mavis and then Gildarts before smiling proudly.
"Very well. As 3rd Master of Fairy Tail I hereby declare Gildarts Clive the new Master of Fairy Tail!" Makarov declared as the guild went crazy with cheers.
"Hehe. I will do my best to show you youngsters how to live life to the fullest! I will make you proud Cana-chan!" Gildarts declared dramatically as Cana sweatdropped.
"Whatever. We shall see how you do." Cana stated dismissively but she had a small smile.
Natsu then pointed at Naruto with a grin.
"Well since you re not Guild Master, you can fight me one on one Naruto!" Natsu declared as Naruto raised an eyebrow.
"Outside! I am not letting our members destroy the Guild Hall while I am here!" Gildarts stated firmly getting a nod of approval from Makarov.
"Why don't we all go and sheer them on? I know everyone here is very excited right now." Mavis suggested as the guild cheered and ran out towards the empty forest.
Outside the guild
"Just you and me Natsu?" Naruto asked as he stretched his arms while Natsu grin was wide as he made a mock punch towards Naruto.
"Of course! I will show you that I can stand on the level of S-class by beating you!" Natsu declared smugly as Happy cheered him on.
Mira and Erza had embarrassed expressions while Gildarts laughed.
"That is totally not how you become S-class Natsu. Sheesh if power was the only factor you probably might be S-class." Erza mumbled while Mira sighed.
"Well let him play his game. It's not like Naruto-kun will actually get hurt or anything." Mira whispered with a knowing look aimed at Naruto as Erza smirked.
"Alright then. Last time it was a triple team of you, Gray and Gajeel and you even had Wendy's magic to power you up. Do you think you can beat me by yourself?" Naruto asked while Gray and Gajeel looked at Natsu expectantly.
This seemed to annoy Natsu as he let out a roar of fire into the air and he seemed more excited then ever.
"I am far stronger than I was back then! I don't need support!" Natsu declared as Naruto shrugged.
"Very well. I declare this spar on!" Gildarts yelled as he put his hand down to start the fight.
Naruto put his right hand out in an open palm when he sensed Natsu charged at him.
"Fire Dragon Iron Fist!" Natsu yelled as he punched Naruto with his left fist on fire.
Naruto open palm caught Natsu's Fire enhanced fist as there was a small burst of blue wind surrounding them.
"Sorry about that Natsu! My Sky Dragon magic cannot be overcome by your Fire Dragon magic!" Naruto claimed as there was a cage of wind surrounding them and there was a tiny amount of Sky Dragon magic covering his palm.
"Well then, my Fire will have to burn hotter! Cha!" Natsu announced as his entire body was now surrounded by Fire Dragon magic as it started to surround both Naruto and Natsu inside the cage of wind.
Naruto gave Natsu an amused smirk as he kept his open palm out even as Natsu's Fire seemed to get hotter and more intense.
"It won't burn hotter than my Sky Dragon can contain! Cha!" Naruto retorted even as Natsu grin grew bigger.
"Then my Fire will surpass even that! Cha!" Natsu eyes turned into angry slits as his mouth comically had fire inside which could be seen as he was talking.
"You can do Natsu! Cha!" Happy cheered as he put a paw up into the air.
"Sensei! You got this cha!" Wendy cheered for her sensei as she put her hands into fists in front of her. Her eyes were crossed in a rather cute way. AN7:
"Fight on cha!" Lisanna cheered on her childhood friend and her crush equally.
"Why is everyone calling out 'cha'?" Kinana stuttered still abit confused at the eccentricates of the guild.
"Haha! Just watch and enjoy Kinana cha!" Erza laughed as she seemed to be just as into it as the guild was.
Natsu fire increased but despite that Naruto didn't seem to be affected at all as his smirk still was on his fist. Natsu then used his right hand to punch which was caught by Naruto left hand.
"I got you now cha!" Natsu announced as Naruto smirk turned to concern when he saw their positioning.
'He has me at point blank range!' Naruto thought in realization.
"Yah! Aah!" Natsu yelled as he let out a massive amount of magic as it shattered the wind barrier surrounding Naruto and Natsu and sent a gust out in every direction.
The girls of the guild held onto their skirts and tops to avoid flashing anyone in the guild while the men covered their face as the wind carried several rocks flying in every direction.
"Lightning Fire Dragon Mode!" Natsu yelled out as yellow lightning now joined his fire aura in a fusion of Lightning and Fire Dragon modes erupted from Natsu body.
"That is Laxus's Lightning! Its just like before!" Freed noted as he looked over to see Laxus with his eyes closed, arms crossed but a proud smile.
"So Natsu you can still use it after the one time I gave you power. Show us what you can do." Laxus noted with a hint of pride in his voice.
While Naruto and Natsu were locked in together by their fists Natsu lifted his head to the sky and opened his mouth. Red Fire and Yellow Lightning erupted from his body and started to fly into the sky before Natsu took a massive breath. The Fire and Lightning was soon sucked into Natsu's mouth as his cheeks bulged out.
"Dammit! This won't be good!" Naruto noted as his eyes narrowed at Natsu's display of magic.
"Everyone get back, now!" Makarov shouted as everyone else quickly ran away to give both Naruto and Natsu a wide birth.
"Lightning Fire Dragon…. Roar!" Natsu yelled as he out of a shout and expelled the Fire and Lightning fusion magic out of his body.
Naruto eyes widened even as Natsu let go of his hands and yelled louder. The Roar was unleashed in a massive sparkling blast of red Fire and yellow Lightning in a wave that shot out towards Naruto. The guild had to cover their eyes as the wave of electrified Fire shot at Naruto and soon carried past him as Naruto appeared to be caught up in the blast.
The Lightning Fire Dragon Roar sailed into the forest and continued on for a while before finally dissipating after it gave out a 'roar' like sound. There was a smoke screen where Naruto was standing. Happy, Carla and Pantherlily flew into the air and gaped when they saw the path of destruction. The magic was an enhanced and alternate form of Fire Dragon Roar with Lightning greatly increasing the destructive power of the roar far beyond the strength of the Fire version.
"He cut a path of destruction through the forest!" Carla stuttered as Happy nodded numbly.
"The power of Dragon Slayers is frightening…" Pantherlily noted as he looked over to see a trench of where trees used to be in the forest.
"Go Natsu! Wooh wooh! You did it!" Happy cheered as he put a paw into the air.
"Natsu beat Naruto? I did not expect that!" Max stuttered even as most of the members of the guild let out a cheer.
"Hey guys where is Naruto? Is he okay? Wendy-chan?" Lucy asked as she turned around to see Wendy with a bored expression as she stared into the cloud of smoke.
Everyone soon noticed Natsu fall onto his butt as his Lightning and Fire aura vanish as he panted and took deep breaths.
"Dammit… I still can't use it without exhausting all my magic at once." Natsu admitted as his teammates gave him dry smiles.
"Not bad…. I will admit that was pretty impressive Natsu. I did not expect that one." Naruto voice came from the smoke.
"You got to be kidding me! Even someone like Naruto couldn't have escaped that without harm at point blank range!" Gray pointed out with wide eyes.
"Naruto-kun… Hehe I guess he once again proves himself against the odds." Mira noted smugly with a giggle into her hand.
Naruto waved his arm as Sky Dragon magic blew away the smoke and revealed his orange jacket was slightly singed and there was a burn on his right cheek.
"He took that blast at point blank range and that is all the damage he took?" Macao asked in surprise.
"I didn't defend myself as I wanted to see just how powerful you have gotten. I will admit that was quite the attack." Naruto revealed as he patted his shoulder to get the dust off his jacket.
"However. It seems your stamina is abit weaker than we were on Tenrou Island. I guess 7 years in sleep has weakened the members of Fairy Tail who went under Fairy Sphere." Naruto noted as his cheek healed after a moment.
Mavis nodded as she floated in the air and crossed her arms.
"It can't be helped. Some atrophy is to be expected after 7 years of inactivity so Team Tenrou magic power has likely weakened to various degrees due to not being able to use it for the long period of time." Mavis added as she nodded her head.
The members of Fairy Tail looked at Mavis with awe and even the members who went to Tenrou Island could not hide their amazement at her assessment.
"I think Mavis-sama is right. It might not affect some people who were monsters like Laxus, Gildarts-san or Naruto but I feel the rest of us are probably weaker than we were on Tenrou Island or at least have our magic power or stamina weakened." Lucy acknowledged as Erza gave a grim nod.
"It can't be helped. I do feel abit stiff so even my magic power likely has stiffened abit." Erza admitted as Mira nodded her agreement.
"Hmm I would kick your butt now but I think you being humbled with your own stamina issues is good enough for today. I don't think its worth its worth it peel you out of the ground." Naruto commented as he powered up a Lightning Dragon aura of electricity for a moment before he sighed letting the magic power vanish.
The guild cheered Naruto for his good sportsmanship as Natsu continued to pant.
"I agree. As 5th Guild Master I declare this fight over! Naruto wins by Natsu forfeiting due to lack of magic power!" Gildarts declared as the guild cheered louder as Naruto took a bow.
"I don't need magic power! I just need to slug you once in the fist and then you will go down Naruto!" Natsu declared as he started to run towards Naruto with a raised fist.
"He does realize even with his most powerful attack he didn't even make Naruto bleed right? What does he think punching Naruto without magic is going to do?" Juvia whispered drily.
"He is just too stubborn to accept defeat especially as he is just exhausted and not beaten down." Gray replied just as drily.
Naruto sighed as he spun around prepared to knock out Natsu now that he wasn't going to sit quietly.
'Fine then. If you want to be wake up tomorrow then be my guest.' Naruto thought as he prepared to dash forward.
Just then Gildarts appeared next to Natsu in a burst of speed and 'tapped' Natsu on the head.
"That's Natsu. I already declared the spar over. I am Guild Master now and when I say its done its done." Gildarts said firmly with a stern tone reflecting his new position.
"Uh Master Gildarts? I don't think Natsu can hear you." Kinana noted as she pointed down at the ground.
Gildarts looked down only to see his 'tap' had caused Natsu to be sent crashing into the ground as a crater formed with Natsu buried into the ground. Gildarts rubbed his head with his left arm as he grabbed Natsu with his right hand and pulled him out.
"Oh right… Sorry about that. I guess I need to work on that if I am going to project a good imagine for our guild." Gildarts stated sheepishly with a nervous chuckle.
Makarov looked like he was going to have a heart attack while Mavis just sighed.
"You think?!" Everyone chanted except Naruto who seemed amused.
"Okay everyone that is enough teasing our new guild master." Naruto stated as he made a few hand signs and the crater filled itself.
"Thank you Naruto. You are always quite dependable and we appreciate it." Gildarts replied as he checked on Natsu who appeared to be twitching and still conscious.
"Eh you seem fine but next time listen to me okay? I am still your senior member and now your Guild Master." Gildarts chided Natsu gently.
"I will get you both next time…. You can bet on it!" Natsu mumbled before he stumbled onto his feet.
Natsu had a bump on his head but other then that looked fine as Happy flew over to him and landed on his shoulder.
AN2: Macao is more mature than before because he was acting 4th Master of Fairy Tail so he isn't quite so immature when it comes to younger women then in part 1.
AN3: A not-so-subtle reference to canon where Jellal and Erza are pretty much canon and if you are caught up with 100 year quest in Edolas…. Wink wink. Of course, in this story Erza and Jellal are just childhood friends who were forced by outside forces to go their separate ways and paths in life. Neither of them have romantic feelings for each other but you know how gossip spreads.
AN4: It's been more offscreen but Carla has been taking not so subtle jabs at Naruto which he mostly just ignores anyways. This is Wendy outright calling her out on it which is the major thing that causes Carla to give Naruto the benefit of the doubt. Although again its not a major point in the story anyways just something I know people probably have wondered when it will be brought up.
AN5: If you want a visual of what Erza is wearing. Look up ' C.C Bride ' on DeviantArt by TysonaSinger19 (posted on January 16 2024). That is what the dress is supposed to look like on Erza's body. I did make additions/changes to the outfit and accessories but it is the general idea.
AN6: Before people whine and complain he took a few steps back despite his new confidence. Its Erza in a wedding dress who is actively flirting and seducing him. That should be enough said to explain why any male who wants Erza wouldn't be able to form a cohesive sentence or thought.
AN7: This is a reference to Natsu in Fairy Tail 100 Year Quest Anime episode 4 ending. Where Natsu overpowers Madmole Armour Dragon body after a series of 'cha' between Madmole, Natsu and Wendy.
