Authors Note: I've wrote this story like 5-6 times lol but I always get the inspiration to rewrite it again. So here is another shot at it! This chapter is pretty much the same chapter from the very first version of "Irresponsible Master Naruto" I had it saved xD so yeah it'll probably seem familiar! But yeah! I hope everyone enjoys xD don't forget to follow, favorite and review as well!
Summary: Makarov due to too much stress has to retire from the guild for the time being, so he decides to make his irresponsable and carefree grandson Naruto Guild Master for the time being, Will Fairy Tail come to accept the Irresponsible blonde?!
Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto or Fairy Tail nor any elements from Gintama, each manga belongs to their separate owners. I make no profit out of this.
Irresponsible Grandson!
"You old fool, you have to retire as Master!" Porlyusica, an elderly pink haired woman, who was one of Makarov's closest friend snapped at Makarov Dreyar the Master of the famous Fairy Tail.
"Nonsense!" Makarov told the pink haired woman, "I feel fine, just a bit stressed!" He stated, even though he felt more than just stressed.
"Just a bit stressed?! Fool, your entire body is ready to collapse any moment now!" Porlyusica stated as her face darkened, "Keep this up and you'll die, you old fool."
"I won't die with you by my side," The elderly man half-joked.
"Old fool, even I can't help you if you die... Makarov, you don't have to retire for good, maybe six months to a year... you can have Erza or Laxus take charge until then," The pink haired woman suggested. She was looking out for his well-being. She didn't like most humans but Makarov was one of the few humans she liked.
Makarov sighed at her suggests, "I can't... those children, need me..."
"They do, but at this rate you'll get really ill and die... for their sake I suggest you retire, but it is up to you if you want to die," Porlyusica told the bald man.
"I guess you're right, I guess I really do need to relax," Her words had finally reached him. The elderly woman only nodded and Makarov continued, "I guess I'll have to think about who will be the new part-time Master..."
Makarov was at Fairy Tail, he was standing on the counter of the guild bar where Mirajane usually worked at. He was watching as his children fought against each-other, as they joked with each-other. He had seen most of them grow up into fine young men and women, he couldn't be more proud at his children.
"This is only temporary Makarov, it is not a goodbye, it is a "see you," Makarov thought with a sad smile. It was time to tell them the news.
"Listen up!" The old man yelled. Everyone heard Makarov and suddenly stopped what they were doing. A wave of silence hung in the air for a good minute or so before Makarov bluntly said, "I am retiring as guild Master."
"WHAT?!" Was the suddenly outburst of everyone in the guild. Some who where even drinking booze, spit out the booze in shock, yes including Cana.
"T-This is a joke, right?!" Gray quirked.
"I-Is Fairy Tail disbanding?!" Elfman asked, there was fear and worry in his voice.
Makarov shook his head at Elfman's question, "I am retiring because my health isn't good at the moment, and If I want to live to see the next generation of Fairy Tail... I'll have to retire for the time being... so until then, some one else will be Master..."
A wave of relief rushed through the guild. It was only a temporary situation, their Master would probably just go on a vacation, everyone needed a vacation once in a while. The whispers of who would become the part-time Master suddenly became the new topic of the guild.
"It'll be Erza for sure!" Natsu Dragneel grinned.
"It'll probably be Laxus!" Evergreen smirked with arrogance.
"My money is on Gildarts, after Master he is the second strongest," Macao stated.
"It will be me! I AM MAN!" Elfman said, while pounding his chest like King Kong.
"In your dreams, Elfman!" Gray told him.
Their muttering and whispering was interrupted by Makarov, "I still have yet to come to a final conclusion on who will be the new part-time Master while I am away, but let us not worry about that and lets party!" Makarov roared while everyone began to cheer.
One Day Later.
"Oi, Old man, why did you call us here for?!" Naruto Uzumaki asked his grandpa as the Uzumaki and Laxus stood before Makarov, currently they were on the second floor of the guild, inside a room with many beds inside.
"Because one of you will be Fairy Tail's new guild Master," Makarov replied whilst looking at his two grandchildren. "I just want to hear something from you two before I make my final decision."
"That'll be me!" Laxus smirked cockily.
"Eh? I'm not even a Fairy Tail mage!" Naruto stated with a confused look on his face. "Has your old age finally caused you to become insane?! Do you want me to take you to a retirement home or something?" Naruto asked the old man.
"It wouldn't be fair if he became Master!" Laxus gave Naruto a cold glare. "Sure, at one point in time he may have been part of the guild, but he left the guild - it wouldn't make sense to make someone not part of Fairy Tail into the Master, so just give me Master already old man." Laxus continued to say. He did have a good point.
"Your face is sexually harrasing me, can you look the other way?!" Naruto said as he stared at Laxus who was glaring at him.
"Hmph, I won't waste my time with weak trash like you," Laxus turned away and stared at Makarov.
Makarov watched both of them, even though they were both family they were totally different. Naruto was carefree, irresponsible, and eccentric. Laxus was serious, power-hungry in a way, and cruel. But only one would be Master. Even if Laxus did make a good point about Naruto being Master, out of his two grandchildren Makarov figured Naruto would make a better Master.
Laxus was right though, Naruto once was a member of Fairy Tail... when he was younger, but not many people remembered the blond ever being a member because he was always sleeping, or being irresponsible, or sometimes he wouldn't show up in the guild for weeks.
Makarov looked at Naruto's right shoulder, even though the blonde had a long sleeve shirt on, he knew he still had his orange guild mark he had gotten years ago.
"Old man," Naruto pointed at Laxus, "It suprises me you are considering making this guy a Master of your guild, he has serious problems." He stated with a smirk.
Laxus growled in annoyance, "You are my problem! Old man always like you, and your dad better than my father and I!" He stated. His fists were clenched.
"Laxus... you know that is not true!" Makarov snapped at him.
"Hmph, whatever, just make me Master already!" Laxus snapped back.
Makarov stayed silent. Before he spoke, "I want both of you to tell me why you want to be Master, and if you did become Master... what would your goals for this guild be? Don't think of lying either, because I will be able to see right through your lies."
"Oi, I don't want to be Master!" Naruto raised his hand, "It's just too much work, why would I want to be a guild master for such a troublesome guild? I rather watch anime reruns all day."
Makarov ignored that comment and said, "Laxus, you go on first!"
Laxus smirked as he clenched his right fist, "I want to be guild Master to make Fairy Tail even stronger... I want to have everyone fear us! I'll even kick out the weak trash old man, and Fairy Tail will become the ultimate guild."
"I see..." Makarov sighed at this. It wasn't wrong to have ambition, but Laxus's way, he just didn't like one bit. Laxus loved Fairy Tail, and he knew that, but his way wasn't a Fairy Tail like way, he would only ruin the guild, he still had much to learn.
"Naruto... your turn," The old man turned to Naruto.
"Eh? Are you deaf? Do you have your ears stuffed with ear wax? I told you I don't want to be Master... it seems like too much work!" Naruto said while picking his ear casually.
"Let's say you were guild master, what would you do?"
"Nothing." Was Naruto's simple reply.
"Like away Naruto... you're a complex boy..." Makarov though while he sweat-dropped, he was doomed! He could already imagine the guild destroyed due to the blonde's carefree personality! Especially if he planned on doing "Nothing!" However... he had to admit he did like Naruto's response better.
"Very well!" After a short pause Makarov nodded and spoke, "Naruto you will be Fairy Tail's new Guild Master!" He said happily.
"WHAT?!" Both Naruto and Laxus yelled in union at this.
Laxus growled in rage after, "You'll leave the guild in the hands of this fool? He is not fit for it! Does he even have magic?! I don't sense any coming from him!" Laxus stated whilst glaring at Naruto.
"Oi, don't act like you're fit for it, too!" Naruto stated as he picked his nose.
"See?! He's picking his nose like the child he is!"
"Everyone picks their nose, but unlike them, I do it openly and not in the shadows!" Naruto stated as he flicked a booger at Laxus.
"Very wise words, Naruto!" Makarov nodded, "Do you know how many times I have to pick my nose in the shadows? The fear of being caught is unbearable!"
"Stop joking around old man!" Laxus snapped at Makarov, "Get serious and make me Master!"
Makarov suddenly turned serious, making Laxus regret what he had just said. The old man glared at Laxus and said, "I've made my decision Laxus. Naruto will be part-time Master whether you like it or not and nothing will change my decision, not you, not the gods and certainly not Naruto!"
"OI, SO I GET NO SAY IN THIS?!" Naruto yelled at Makarov before saying, "Do you want to die old man? You already got one foot in the grave I'll gladly help you put the other in the grave!"
"Yes you have no choice Naruto!" Makarov glared at him.
"You rotten old man, if mom was here she'd beat you up!"
"Just follow me my boy." Makarov ignored his remark as Naruto and him walked out of the room, and into the stareway of the second guild floor.
Everyone in Fairy Tail was doing their own thing, but most of all! They were all wondering who the part-timer Master would be! Would it be Erza? Laxus? Mirajane? Would it be Natsu?!
"Fairy Tail! I bring you forth the new part-time Master!" Makarov all of a sudden yelled from the second floor, grabbing everyone's attention, "Meet Naruto Uzumaki, your new Master!"
They all watched as a blonde walked forth as he picked on his right ear with his pinky.
"Yo!" Naruto lazily said while he waved at everyone with his free hand.
Everyone inside Fairy Tail thought the same thing.
Who the hell was the blondie?!
