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: The beginning of this chapter is a flashback to what happened in the ending of last chapter

Chapter 56 To a New World Not Home

Some time earlier

Wendy was taking a stroll through town as she didn't feel like taking a job by herself and the team was more or less relaxing.

"I wonder if I should save the Jewels, we got last time or spend a little on something?" Wendy thought before she gave herself a dry spell.

"Although I wouldn't even know what to spend it my savings on if I wanted to. I never really had a whole bunch of extra spending jewels as I always took small jobs while at Cait Shelter." Wendy mumbled in embarrassment.

Back then Carla was a super intelligent if not slightly bossy best friend who refused to let Wendy spend Jewels on frivolous things as they had strictly set everything aside for pre planned budgets.

Wendy waved to some town people who happened to talk to her due to how friendly Magnolia Town was in general. Nobody really batted an eye to seeing a young girl like her walking around as her Fairy Tail guild mark proved she was a wizard and presumably could take care of herself. She was focusing so hard trying to figure something to do she didn't even notice she was walking past the town border.

She grunted when she felt herself bump into someone taller than her as she tripped and fall on her butt.

"Ow. That hurt." Wendy pouted cutely as she rubbed her sore hips before she realized she was being rude.

"Sorry about that. I wasn't paying attention. Please forgive me!" Wendy chanted. She stood up and bowed with her eyes closed on instinct.

"Wendy? Is that you?" A man's voice asked in astonishment and joy making Wendy open her eyes.

Wendy saw a taller young man with his wearing a cloak with his face covered seemingly looking at her with recongination. His face had both a green mask and blue bandana hiding his features.

"Sorry? Do we know each other?" Wendy asked curiously as she didn't think she knew the stranger.

The man blinked before he chuckled as he removed his face mask and bandana revealing his blue hair and dark eyes that were filled with joy.

"Wendy its me. Jellal!" 'Jellal' claimed as Wendy looked at him closely.

Wendy took a quick sniff making Jellal chuckled before she focused on his face. Wendy eyes shone as she remembered as a very young girl travelling with a boy with the same blue hair and dark hair.

"Is that really you? Jellal?" Wendy whispered as she covered her mouth and her eyes started to tear up.

Jellal brought her into a hug which she eagerly returned as the friends reunited after several years of not seeing each other.

"Yes its me! I am sorry I left you but I thought you would still be at Cait Shelter not Fairy Tail." Jellal admitted as he pulled away and squatted down so he could look Wendy in the eyes.

Wendy looked down sadly as Jellal patted her on the head.

"The master was…" Wendy about to start before Jellal sighed patting her on the shoulder.

"So you found about Roubaul huh. I guess it was only a matter of time." Jellal noted sadly as Wendy looked up at him.

"Wait you knew he wasn't really…?" Wendy asked desperately.

Jellal nodded solemnly giving her a look of sadness.

"He told me before I left you there. However, I could tell he genuinely wanted to help you so I knew you would be safe there." Jellal stated as Wendy nodded. AN2:

"It might not be real people but Master Roubaul gave me every opportunity for happiness he could and I was happy for as long as I could be there for." Wendy stated with her eyes full of determination.

"However now I am a Fairy Tail wizard and will do everything I can to make the guild proud!" Wendy promised making Jellal smile before he looked alarmed.

"Sorry to cut this short but you have to run!" Jellal stated as he looked up in the sky.

'Father… You really are going all out this time! I won't be able to stop it this time!' Jellal thought as he gripped one of his staves tightly.

"What's wrong? Is it something I said?" Wendy asked worried.

Jellal wanted to reassure Wendy but he knew he had to get Wendy out at the very least.

"No its not but you have to come with me right now and leave!" Jellal shouted as he grabbed Wendy and started to drag her away.

All the sudden the sky above Magnolia town seemed to gather storm clouds as it darkened and thunder started to appear.

"Please tell me what's happening! Why do we have to leave? What is happening to the sky?" Wendy asked in desperation as she struggled to get away.

Despite Wendy getting somewhat stronger as a result of Naruto rather unorthodox training methods she could not match the strength of a S-class wizard like Mystogan in physical strength.

"There is no time! I can't save anyone else but I can at least get you out!" Jellal insisted as he dragged Wendy desperately.

Wendy growled and surprisingly applied Sky Dragon slayer magic to her feet which had the effect of more or less anchoring her feet to the ground. Jellal tried to continue to drag her but sound much more resistance. He was about to continue but what really made him stop was the look of desperation in Wendy's large brown eyes.

"Please! I want to trust you! So please tell me what is happening!" Wendy pleaded to her oldest friend that she could remember besides her Dragon Mother Grandeeny herself.

"….. Something bad. Something that will make Magnolia never the same again." Mystogan admitted as he told her the identity he used in Fairy Tail much to Wendy's surprise.

"We need to warn everyone then! Get people out before it too late!" Wendy insisted as the magic disappeared.

She tried to run into the town but Mystogan picked her up and gave her a sad defeated look.

"Its already too late. I failed and now I can't stop it." Jellal admitted as he pointed into the sky.

The storm clouds stormed to rage with lighting but they could see a distinct gap in the sky which started to peel open.

"I am sorry. I tried my best but here I have to watch my home be taken away." Mystogan said sadly as he dropped to his knees but kept his grip on Wendy.

"Let me go! I don't understand what is happening but I have to do something!" Wendy screamed struggling to no avail.

Meanwhile Naruto looked up as he sensed something nasty above Magnolia Town. Naruto was currently in his home outside Magnolia in the local forest.

"Something is happening. It feels… like magic but not quite. Either way I am stopping it." Naruto declared as he grabbed his kunai holder and placed it on his hip.

Naruto grabbed a kunai and vanished in a Flying Rajin jump. He appeared on top of the sand he left in Magnolia Town. It still had his Flying Rajin marking as part of the sealing array. AN3:

Luckily for him everyone was inside their homes due to the terrible weather that seemed to have magically appeared so no one was paying attention to him appearing in the middle of town out of nowhere. Naruto looked up to see the storm clouds with a ripple in the sky.

"Is this some sort of attack?" Naruto asked before shaking his head.

"Either way I can't let it hit Magnolia Town." Naruto declared with a serious look.

Naruto flew into the air using Sky Devil magic and then he tossed one of his marked Kunai few into the distance where he could sense no life in the area. The rip in the sky grew bigger before something started to appear through the rip. Naruto flicked another kunai in front of him as he faced the rip.

He summoned chakra as his kunai hovered in front of his hands. Suddenly a massive beam of energy or something appeared from the rip and shot towards the town.

"I won't let you destroy my home." Naruto stated as he starred up at the beam of energy.

Naruto used the Flying Rajin: Guiding Thunder Technique to create a rip in the time space area in front of him. The beam hit the rip and appeared to stop and vanish.

'I have to teleport this thing into my kunai I through and make sure it hits the ground.' Naruto thought as he mentally guided the time space teleportation into the marked kunai far away.

Naruto started to strain as the beam continued despite it being teleported away but then his eyes widened when the beam seemed to double in strength. The beam started to overflow his area before it overwhelmed Naruto's attempts to move it away.

"What is this?!" Naruto yelled as the beam broke through his jutsu.

The beam hit Naruto and grew bigger once he was no longer teleporting away apart of it. Naruto was enveloped in the blast before the blast hit the town. The town was enveloped in a blue light that made Wendy and Jellal have to shield their eyes for a minute.

When they opened their eyes, nothing was left of Magnolia Town except a crater with several strands of magic left behind. Even those strands of magic appeared to grow dimmer as they were drawn into the rip in the sky.

"No… Everyone and everything is gone!" Wendy screamed as she fell on her knees in despair seeing her new home completely gone.

"I am sorry. There was nothing we could do. Although it does appear someone tried to direct it away." Mystogan noted as he looked around.

Little did Mystogan and Wendy know Naruto was not absorbed into the Amima like the others were despite being hit directly by the blast. He was a Dragon Slayer and thus could not converted directly into Ethernano and later into a giant Lacrima once reaching Edolias. Since the blast could not convert him, it caused a massive hidden explosion that sent Naruto in his base state flying so far and fast he crashed into a mountain and fell unconscious for his efforts. AN4:

"That was Naruto-sensei! I can't spell him with all this rain but I could tell it could only be him." Wendy insisted as she wiped her tears and looked around.

"Naruto Uzumaki? I saw him once. I wasn't sure why but I could tell he was different from everyone else. I see if he was your teacher then he must be important to you." Mystogan noted with a smile.

Wendy nodded her head furiously before a slight blush appeared on her cheeks to Mystogan amusement.

"He is the best! He is the strongest person ever and he cares so much about everyone! I want him to notice me! I mean he always notices me but I mean as someone not a a kid but someone who can stand along side him!" Wendy babbled and rambled as she started to pace.

'He seems to be a good influence. If anything, I think Wendy has a schoolgirl crush on him.' Mystogan thought with a smile.

'The rumours about him do seem nothing by praise for his deeds. So if she has to have a role model or a crush I suppose Naruto would be the ideal person." Mystogan mused.

Wendy was about to continue to ramble but she heard voices as her face turned to hope.

"Over here!" Wendy shouted extremely happy to hear someone was still around.

"Wendy?!" Carla shrieked as she flew extra fast and landed in Wendy's arms.

"Carla! Everyone… they just…" Wendy cried as she hugged Carla who snuggled into her arms. AN6:

Mystogan stood there stocially letting Flying Cat and Dragon Slayer just cry in each other's arms.

"That voice. Wendy and Carla!" Natsu excited voice shouted as he ran over with Happy flying above him.

"Natsu-san! You are okay!" Wendy shouted happily sending the elder Dragon Slayer a huge of relief.

"Also Happy-san as well!" Wendy added making Happy smile and nod.

"Glad to see you safe as well." Natsu added before he looked down.

"We were just hanging in the guild and then there was this flash of light and then….The guild… no the entire town just vanished with Natsu and I left behind." Happy narrated as Natsu growled. AN7:

"Perhaps I can give you some answers." Mystogan said stoically with his mask still off.

"That face! Jellal!" Natsu shouted in anger as he glared at the blue haired man.

Natsu fist was covered in fire that was burning about to slug the man in the face. Wendy ran in between them putting her arms out.

"Natsu-san stop! Its not the Jellal that hurt Erza-san! He is my friend!" Wendy insisted as she looked defiantly at Natsu.

Natsu growled but when Happy patted his shoulder, Natsu put his hand down and the fire went out.

"Explain." Natsu said with a serious look as Mystogan nodded.

"The guild knows me as Mystogan the mysterious S-class wizard. However, my real name is Jellal but not the Jellal that was in that Tower of Heaven." Mystogan revealed with a sad expression.

"I am Jellal from a different world called Edolias and Edolias is the reason why Magnolia Town and everyone living inside it vanished into the air." Mystogan stated with his hand clenched.

Natsu, Wendy and Happy gasped while Carla looked away with a conflicted expression.

"A different world?" Happy asked in shock.

Natsu and Happy spent time arguing about the possibility of another world while Mystogan looked ready to face palm at the cat and dragon slayers actions. Wendy noticed her friend looking conflicted as she looked her in the eyes.

"What's wrong Carla?" Wendy asked nervously.

"… Wendy… I…." Carla said hesistatatnly as she couldn't look Wendy in the eyes despite being in her arms.

"You already knew about Edolias didn't you?" Mystogan asked with a raised eyebrow.

"Yes. I remember things… There are things about Edolias I knew for awhile now but I didn't know it would happen like this." Carla admitted as she glanced at Happy clueless expression.

'How does Happy not know about our mission? Its so clear to me but he doesn't have the information? No! I don't care what I was suppose to do! I won't let anything happen to Wendy!' Carla thought furiously.

"Carla. Please if you know anything please tell us now!" Wendy pleaded as Carla looked rather guilty.

After a few seconds when it became clear Carla was refusing to speak up, Natsu turned to Mystogan with a serious expression.

"Tell us what does this other place have to do with that beam." Natsu demanded as he looked at Mystogan with a slight glare.

Mystogan sighed before nodding.

"Edolias is a world that has people that are similar to the people here. Like the fact I look like Jellal and even called Jellal. I am not sure if it was a coincidence that people have counterparts or some sort of divine intervention." Mystogan stated as Natsu squinted. AN8:

"Yup you and Jellal have the same face and I guess same name too." Natsu remarked as he imagined Mystogan and Jellal standing next to each other with their faces being identical.

"Even your scent smells the same." Wendy added blushing with Happy looked amused while Mystogan sent her a small smile.

"The problem is magic works differently in Edolias and Earthland. In Earthland magic is virtually limitless as it comes from the Ethenano in the air around us being converted into magic power by entering the magic container inside every wizard." Mystogan started pointing at Natsu chest in demonstration.

"Yeah, everyone knows that! How is that relative to why Magnolia Town is gone!" Natsu stated with impatience.

"The truth of the matter is people like me and everyone in Edolias do not have magic containers and hence cannot use magic like your Earthland Wizards can." Mystogan revealed much to everyone shock.

"That's impossible! You are an S-class wizard and you can't use magic?!" Happy shouted in disbelief.

Mystogan gave them a bitter smile as he picked up one of his staffs and pointed it to the sky.

"The source of my magic power are these items. I do not produce the magic itself like you guys do I simply use the magic stored in these items to my benefit. Besides my own trained hand to hand combat, I am no different then the people in Earthland who can't use magic at all." Mystogan revealed.

Mystogan waved one of the staffs and it created a small wind burst. He then put the staff onto his back and waved his hand and nothing happened.

"See. It's the staff producing the magic not me. It's the same for everyone in Edolias. We are not blessed with the power to create magic simply use it in the form of items." Mystogan stated proving his point.

"Ah I see! So that is how Edolias magic works!" Happy clapped his hands with interest.

Natsu looked flatly at the staff and back at Mystogan.

"I don't see the difference. Its still magic right?" Natsu asked in confusion.

Wendy and Carla gave him flat looks although Wendy did have slightly more sympathy compared to Carla. Mystogan sighed and resisted face palming. Luckily Happy was there and could speak 'Natsu'.

"Think of it this way. Edolias Magic is like you using Fire but only from a stick while Earthland magic is your own magic coming from anywhere in your body!" Happy explained.

"Oh! I get it!" Natsu stated happily patting his fist into his other open palm.

'That is what it took to understand? Well, I guess Natsu has never been known for his brains.' Carla thought drily.

Natsu turned to Mystogan and shockingly gave him a look of pity and bowed.

"That must really suck to be from Edolias! I couldn't imagine using magic that wasn't in my body! Having to wave a stick or something to use magic would really suck!" Natsu stated shaking his head in disappointment.

Mystogan eye twitched while Happy sighed at Natsu lack of tact.

'Hmm Lucy-san magic is only in her keys? Although Lucy-san magic does summon her friends so I guess its not really the same as Edolias magic?' Wendy thought tilting her head slightly for a moment.

Carla gave Mystogan a serious expression as she crossed her arms.

"You are not talking about the real issue with Edolias magic and the reason why Magnolia Town is gone." Carla pointed out as Mystogan winced.

"So you really do know." Mystogan noted as Carla nodded.

Wendy, Natsu and Happy looked at Mystogan and Carla with confusion.

"Real issue?" Wendy asked as Mystogan looked down.

"Edolias magic is finite. Once the magic in an item is used up its gone forever. There is only a certain number of magical items so our magic is very finite unlike Earthland magic." Mystogan revealed darkly as he gripped his staff angrily.

Wendy, Happy and Natsu eyes widened.

"Your magic…" Happy started.

"is finite…" Natsu continued.

"And runs out?!" Wendy finished with all three having wide eyes in disbelief.

"Yes. Edolias has always had the issue with finite magic but only in recent years when the magic items were close to running out has it been an issue that has truly affected the people." Carla remarked as Mystogan nodded.

Wendy gasped as she pointed to the staffs on Mystogan's back.

"Does that mean those staffs will run out of power eventually and you won't be able to use magic at all?" Wendy asked looking horrified at her friend.

Natsu looked uncomfortable while Carla looked at Mystogan with an expectant look waiting for him to answer.

Mystogan smiled at Wendy's worry and shook his head.

"No. My staff's won't run out. These are actually copies I had made from Earthland magic turned into items. These are not from Edolias. I had them modelled after the staffs I brought over from Edolias so I would not have to exhaust the magic inside the staffs from Edolias." Mystogan revealed. AN9:

Wendy released a sigh of relief but Natsu narrowed his eyes.

"Is your homeland trying to replenish your magic by stealing it from our world?" Natsu asked with a glare.

"Natsu-san!" Wendy chided but Mystogan shook his head.

"He's right Wendy. There is a technique in Edolias called the Anima which is a portal from Edolias to Earthland. It converts anything it sucks up into a Lacrima when it reaches Edolias. That Lacrima can be broken down into usable magic in Edolias." Mystogan revealed darkly with notable resentment in his tone.

'Father is there no limits to what you will do to keep your power?' Mystogan thought as he could imagine his father the King of Edolias grinning with his hands upwards as a giant Lacrima was behind him.

Wendy and Happy gasped while Carla looked down. Natsu growled as fire soared from his mouth into the air from his anger.

"So whatever assholes are in Edolias sucked up our entire town and everyone in there to become some sort of Magic battery Lacrima?!" Natsu asked angrily as his very being started to heat up.

"Yes…. Before they only sucked up significant but rather harmless amounts of just Ethernano but today the Anima was so strong and massive it sucked up the entire town." Mystogan admitted in shame.

Natsu growled as he pointed at the sky with the ripple in the air notable smaller now.

"How do we get into Edolias?" Natsu demanded.

"Natsu?" Happy asked uncertainly looking at Natsu with concern.

"I don't care what Mystogan has to say about what happens if that Lacrima is used up. We just have to go there and save everyone before anything happens! Its that simple!" Natsu declared with absolute certainty.

"Aw sir!" Happy cheered as he flew up to Natsu's shoulder.

"I will help too!" Wendy declared with a nod.

Carla looked uncertain before sighing.

"Fine. Happy and I can flew into the tear in the sky. If we go full speed we should be able to enter it and since it's a portal it will lead us straight into Edolias." Carla noted.

Wendy smiled happily as Carla picked her up. Natsu cheered as Happy picked him up. Without another word the two flying cats and two dragon slayers flew straight up into the sky and disappeared.

"Those fools. They did not stick around enough for me to give them the X-balls. It is the only way for Earthland Wizards to use their own magic while in Edolias." Mystogan sighed as he walked way.

"I will look for anyone else who happened to be left behind. Dragon Slayer magic is immune to being consumed by the Amina. Hopefully someone else is still here to give assistance and X-balls." Mystogan remarked as he continued to walk.

Shortly he found Lucy who had survived due to her spirit Horologium using his one time per summon Automatic Danger Response Mode to protect Lucy. It had sensed the danger of the Anima and summoned itself to protect Lucy. Lucy kept hounding him with questions and being rather loud so a slightly annoyed Mystogan popped an X-ball into her mouth and opened a mini-Anima portal to send her to Edolias. AN10:

He also found Gajeel who as the Iron Dragon slayer was simply not absorbed like Natsu and Wendy. He took abit more time to explain things as being a Dragon Slayer he had the potential to destroy Lacrimas and return them into their original states. He also gave him a bottle of X-balls for the group sent ahead and anyone else who might be revived.

"Is there truly no one else in Fairy Tail who was spared? Even with the group I sent ahead they might not be able to defeat the Royal Army. They hold almost all the magic items left in Edolias at this point and have sheer numbers." Mystogan sighed as he prepared to open a portal for himself.

Just then he felt terror like he never felt before. A presence of pure horror and power seemed to fill the air itself. Mystogan turned to the source of the power and saw a collapsed mountain the distance. There seemed to be a roar as the mountain was lifted up and seemed to destroyed in an instant leaving less then half the mountain left. Mystogan couldn't really see but he swore he saw some sort of red energy.

"What is that? Should I investigate?" Mystogan wondered as he was about to walk over to the mountain.

Before Mystogan could take another step the horrifying presence seemed to magnify as he felt something breeze past him and stop behind him.

"What happened? Tell me everything. Do not leave a single detail out." A male growled behind Mystogan.

Mystogan turned around slowly with his hands in the air. He saw a man with a reddish cloak like energy surrounding him. The red energy seemed to take a fox like skin. The man had two distinct fox like ears above his head formed from the energy with notable claw like appendages extended from the mans fingers. There was also a notable red tail behind the man that seemed to have a mind of its own as it swayed back and forth as the man took deep breaths.

Mystogan found it abit hard to breathe but then he focused and noticed inside the red cloak the man had blonde hair, red eyes and three unique whiskers that seemed to cover a portion of each cheeks. Mystogan eyes widened in recognition.

"Naruto Uzumaki? What happened to you?" Mystogan asked as he looked into Naruto red eyes which seemed to narrow.

"Mystogan." Naruto acknowledged with a growl.

Naruto was about to demand answers but then felt a small tug in his mindscape.

"Calm down Naruto." Kurama chided as his tails lazily swayed.

'Kurama.' Naruto replied mentally.

"You of all people should know if you let your emotions run rampant like this you will instinctively draw on my chakra by mistake. My chakra will react to your negative emotions and form a Version 1 cloak if you are not careful." Kurama remarked with a frown.

Naruto blinked before taking a deep breath. The version 1 cloak slowly receded and withdraw back into the seal leaving Naruto panting but no longer looking like a demonic fox in the real world.

'Sorry. I wasn't thinking. Thanks Kurama.' Naruto apologized with a smile as he left his mindscape.

Kurama rolled his eyes before smiling slightly.

"Baka. We are partners right?" Kurama whispered.

The tailed beasts smirked at Kurama who gave them the middle finger.

"Never thought you of people would encourage our Jinchuuriki to not use version 1 cloak. It is the primal form of tailed beast chakra after all." Son remarked staring at the bigger tailed beast.

"Tch. I am Naruto true partner. If anything, you all are just freeloaders who are just sharing my space." Kurama stated plainly ignoring Son's question altogether.

The tailed beasts just continued to grin at the irate Nine Tailed Fox who pretended to sleep.

Mystogan let a sigh of relief as the oppressing power vanished as Naruto opened his eyes to reveal serious but much calmer blue eyes.

"Sorry about that. Now I really do need to know everything Jellal clone." Naruto stated with a slight smile when Mystogan eye twitched.

"Mystogan is fine." Mystogan insisted as he took a deep breath.

Mystogan then spent the next several minutes explaining everything he told Wendy, Carla, Natsu, and Happy.

"I see. So, your magic power has always come from the staffs on your back." Naruto commented as he nodded after hearing the entire story."

Naruto took a moment and focused on Mystogan directly.

'I really can't sense Ethernano coming from him. It must have been such a brief visit the one time I saw him I mistook the magic from his staffs as coming from him.' Naruto thought in wonder.'

"That's right. Nobody in Edolias has inherit magic like Earthland Wizards besides the Exceeds. Even the Exceeds together as a race have nowhere near as much magic or power as the mages of Earthland." Mystogan confirmed with a nod.

Naruto hid a smirk at a race of flying cats imagining all the males being similar to Happy and the females being somewhat snobby as Carla.

"So, this is what master meant when he asked me if I came from Edolias. I guess it makes sense looking back as it's a parallel world to Earthland." Naruto mused as he remembered one of his earliest conversations with Makarov.

'Another world traveller like me but unlike me he actually has magic coming to this world.' Mystogan thought with the tiniest hint of jealously.

"I see. To think the man responsible for all this is your father too Prince Jellal." Naruto remarked with a sad sigh.

Mystogan shook his head as he gave an angry frown.

"No, the King doesn't consider me his son anymore then I consider then him my father. If I had to guess the Royal army is probably forbidden to speak even my name due to the 'treason' I committed." Mystogan insisted with a hint of sadness.

'Nobody can truly hate their parents no matter what they end up doing.' Naruto thought as his own parents smiling faces appeared in his mind.

"So, you wouldn't mind if I killed the King and Royal Army?" Naruto asked quietly with a neutral expression.

Mystogan eyes widened as he looked slack jawed at Naruto's words. He could not believe Naruto was even suggesting murder.

"What are you talking about? We are here to save Magnolia Town and Fairy Tail! Not to commit murder!" Mystogan insisted.

"Tch. Lets say we do get the town back somehow. Whose to say the King or someone in the Royal Army won't once again use the Anima to suck everyone again? What's to stop them from trying over and over again?" Naruto asked with a scoff and cool expression.

"Should we continue to forgive them over and over again? What if they actually convert our Fairy Tail family into usable magic and kills them? Should I let it happen to avoid harming the Edolias Royal Army? Hmm?" Naruto asked once again with critical eyes as he clenched his fists.

"No of course its not right what Edolias is doing to Earthland especially them invading and taking Magnolia Town!" Mystogan admitted.

"However, seeking vengeance is also not the right way either!" Mystogan claimed.

Naruto smiled at the irony.

'I wasn't being serious but the irony of someone else preaching to me what I preached to Sasuke for years is not lost on me.' Naruto mused.

Naruto nodded and gestured for him to continue.

"Very well. What should we do? I won't hurt anyone if possible but we do need to stop this from happening again." Naruto stated with an expectant look.

Mystogan took a minute before he sighed.

"A measure of last resort but the only real option we can do to stop this cycle." Mystogan remarked with a look of deep regret.

"A measure of last resort?" Naruto asked with an interested look.

"A reverse Anima. The Anima converts something from Earthland into magic power for Edolias." Mystogan remarked as he gave Naruto a slight smile.

"The reverse would take magic from Edolias and return it to Earthland!" Naruto gasped in realization.

"That's right. It's the only way to stop any future attempts of the Anima from stealing magic power from Earthland. Once the Reverse Anima is completed the magic sustaining it will also be sucked up so the Anima will be useless." Mystogan stated as he closed his eyes.

'I am sorry. This is the only way. We have plundered from this world too long. The dangerous magic has no more place in Edolias. We must adapt and live without magic from now on!' Mystogan thought with conviction.

"So, everyone and everything with magic would return here? Including the town, all the people and the Exceeds?" Naruto asked for clarification.

Mystogan nodded solemnly as his eyes grew sad.

"That would solve everything and nobody would need to get hurt." Naruto mumbled in relief.

Naruto eyes widened as he looked at Mystogan.

"If only people who have magic return here does that mean you would have to be left behind?" Naruto asked with notable worry.

Mystogan gave him a surprised look before sighing in resignation.

"Honestly, I am abit shocked you care. Besides Wendy herself and Master I always kept my distance even from Fairy Tail wizards. So, I am confused on why me staying in Edolias would be a problem for you." Mystogan admitted looking at Naruto with confusion.

Naruto snorted before smiling softly.

"It doesn't matter to me where you came from. Anyone who gets the Fairy Tail guild mark is my family as well." Naruto stated firmly.

"You sound like Master." Mystogan noted with a reminisce smile.

Naruto laughed and waved him off.

"I can't really talk either. I came from another world too. The Elemental Nations are even more different then Edolias is to Earthland and people here accepted me even after they learned where I came from. So, I can accept you in return." Naruto added making Mystogan chuckle.

"Very true. That is a nice way to think about it." Mystogan remarked before he grew quiet and solemn again.

"I will have to stay in Edolias. Hopefully I can do something about the broken world I leave absent of magic." Mystogan vowed with a determined look.

"….. Everyone in Edolias will live once the magic is converted over here?" Naruto asked seriously.

Mystogan blinked and nodded.

"Yes. Since magic is not part of us and we simple use it in the form of items. There will be no ill effects from having it torn from Edolias." Mystogan confirmed.

"Besides the shock of living in a world that will never have magic in any form again?" Naruto added with a small smile.

"…. Yes. However, I truly believe this is the right course of action. Eventually Edolias will need to stand on its own feet without the comfort of magic. All I am doing is driving the nail into the coffin of Edolias limited magic." Mystogan stated firmly.

Naruto looked at him for a minute trying to sense any doubt or lies in his words. His stare unnerved Mystogan abit but he kept his gaze on Naruto.

"Very well. I will let you handle the reverse Anima while I create the distraction. I am a walking mass of Dragon Slayer magic after all. I can't help but think I will be a prime walking target. Plus no matter how many people they send after me I won't stop till I get our friends back!" Naruto declared with his eyes shining in determination.

Mystogan nodded and took out of his pocket an X-Ball.

"Sorry I gave most of my supply of them to Gajeel before. This single one and one for me is all I have left to spare." Mystogan stated as he put the X-ball into Naruto's hand.

Naruto looked at it before he put it in his pocket giving Mystogan a cocky grin.

"No need to worry. I am all the backup Fairy Tail needs. Just me will be enough to bring back everyone even if they sent the entire Royal Army!" Naruto claimed confidently.

'But first I should bring them with me just in case. I won't be able to summon them if they aren't on me when I go through.' Naruto thought.

Naruto looked into the distance as he put his hand forward. It sparked with wind and electricity as Mystogan took a step back.

"Come here. Tenseiga. Come to me Tesseiga!" Naruto yelled.

Both swords within their sheathes flew at Naruto called by their name and his use of their Dragon Slayer magic. Naruto grabbed them in mid air and put them in their sheathes on his belt.

Naruto looked at Mystogan with a shrug as he patted the swords on his hip.

"Just in case. I shouldn't need to use them but I will bring them along just in case." Naruto remarked as the swords hummed with power.

Mystogan gave him an odd look and shrugged.

"Whatever you need to do. Let me just create a portal for you to enter Edolias. Remember to eat the X-ball or you will not able to use magic unless it's the magic items native to Edolias. The X-ball allows an Earthland wizard to convert their magical core to use the limited amount of Ethernano left in Edolias atmosphere." Mystogan informed Naruto.

Naruto nodded and patted Mystogan on the shoulder with a smile.

"Thanks for everything. I don't blame you for what happened to our family. However, I will make sure everyone knows it was you who helped saved them when they return." Naruto promised with a grin.

Mystogan nodded and prepared to wave one of his staffs but Naruto stopped him with a hand.

"Wait. Save your magic. That spot where the Anima was in the Sky is a rip in the Time space between Edolias and Earthland correct?" Naruto asked as he pointed high into the sky.

"Yes, but its closed now. You cannot enter through that space anymore." Mystogan remarked with a slow nod.

Naruto smirked as he bathed in golden chakra and entered the basic form of Nine-tails chakra Mode or simple Chakra Mode. Mystogan was in awe of the power Naruto was emitting.

'Its not as violet or dreadful as that red form but so powerful and calm. Almost like being bathed in his power just being near him.' Mystogan thought with awe.

"Don't worry about it. I can't create a new rip in dimensions using this power but despite being closed the Anima did still create a rip in the dimensions. With this power I can force it to open for a moment and I will slip through and enter Edolias that way." Naruto commented as his power seemed to flicker like golden flames.

"Just promise me to follow behind and find a way to access the Reverse Anima. I don't want anyone to be hurt if I can but if the entire Royal Army is focused on then a few smacks in the gut can't be avoided." Naruto asked Mystogan.

"I promise. Remember even if the Fairy Tail in Edolias looks like our family here they are not the same people. They have completely different experiences and personalities. They might not be your allies." Mystogan warned as he backed away.

Naruto just nodded solemnly before he looked into the sky. Naruto flew from the sky at great speed as he approached where the rip from the Anima was rapidly. Naruto formed a golden Rasengan instantly in one hand and thrust it forward.

"Here goes! Rasengan!" Naruto yelled.

Naruto's Rasengan was thrust forward and hit the sky. The sky appeared to repel back the attack as electricity was formed from the impact. However, Naruto refused to back down and continued to push the Rasengan forward. More electricity wit higher intensity before the sky cracked and gradually a rip was formed. Naruto's Rasengan surged forward and started to expand causing the rip to expand to the point where Naruto could slip through if he flew straight into it.

Naruto gave one last salute to Mystogan with his free hand before he rushed forward into the rip dissolving his Rasengan. Naruto entered the rip just as it began to close. Both Naruto and the rip disappeared as the sky cleared as if there was never a rip to begin with.

"Good luck my friend." Mystogan whispered as he looked up into the sky.

'If he uses that power then I doubt even all the magic in Edolias could stop him. However, I can understand why Wendy looks up to him so much. He seems rather honest and kind despite his powers so I will trust him to knock out the army not kill them." Mystogan thought as he sighed once more.

AN2: I know its unclear in canon if Mystogan/Edo Jellal knew about the truth but here he did but he was assured that Wendy would be taken care of before he dropped her off.

AN3: Remember that small amount of sand from chapter 16 and 35? You might have forgotten but Naruto still has that 'teleport' spot for emergencies available to him.

AN4: Naruto is in his base state! Having a mountain essentially crash on top of him can cause him to get knocked out.

AN5: The only time we see Minato teleport very strong things in canon are fully formed Tailed Beasts bombs in their sphere forms (aka balls). It seems that it grabs onto the entire bomb and forces it teleport the entire thing at once. We never see it be used against a continuous beam or attack so we can't know if there is a limit to how much it can absorb and redirect. The Anima continuously charged and fired onto the teleport area until it surpassed what Naruto could teleport away before continuing to absorb Magnolia Town.

AN6: I know I give Carla a hard time in my stories but I will admit she does love Wendy and she will comfort her when she needs it.

AN7: Its been a very long time since I watched Edolias so I am not sure if its canon or not but in my mind Happy and Carla didn't get converted because they were Exceeds. I could be wrong and they just happened to not be in range but here being an Exceed means you don't get converted into a Lacrima from an Anima.

AN8: I personally find its more then likely a coincidence then anything actually 'divine' (as Fairy Nails has counterparts that have no relationship to Fairy Tail) but there is some ambiguity.

AN9: I know its probably the staffs that canon Mystogan uses are the ones he brought over from Edoias (as he had the staffs as a child shown in the Wendy flashback) but here they are copies. We do know in the GMG Jellal had copies of the staffs (in his Mystogan persona) meaning it is possible to have Earthland magic versions of Edolias magic. With the assumption that they run on the Ethernano and hence won't run out like Edolias versions.

AN10: I know it sounds petty but we don't get a real reason why Lucy was not told anything by Mystogan so I just had him a tad annoyed at Lucy freaking out.
