What's this? A new chapter, but hell hasn't frozen over.

You've all been waiting for this and I am proud to announce a new chapter for The Master.

"What exactly did I make?" Naruto said as he saw his tree began to glow like a rainbow.

It was the day after the flower festival that everyone in Magnolia saw his giant metal tree begin to glow like the cherry blossoms had. Luckily, everyone loved the fact that it bathe Magnolia in its soft light, so no one was asking for him to chop it down.

While most people loved the way it brightened up the town. Naruto was concerned as he didn't know his tree could do this. It also brought up the obvious question, what else could it do? It was becoming obvious that Naruto had no clue what he did when he had created his tree.

It also, brought back up an interesting thought. Had the spell possibly been planted in his mind? Until recently he had been the host to a celestial being. A being who had admitted that he was acting under orders of an even higher being. Was he being manipulated in some giant chess game by beings who's intentions he could possibly never understand? Or, was he just over thinking it because he was embarrassed by the fact that he didn't know the repercussions of his spell?

Jumping up in a huff, he decided that it didn't matter. His tree was his responsibility and he would find out all there was to it even if it took him years.

x-x-x-x-x-x

"I don't know whether that's a legal move or not." Mirajane said as she saw Naruto pop back out of the portal he created.

"There wasn't any rule against it." He said with a grin as he tossed the scale in his hand up and down.

"Well, I guess this means you win, Naruto. Although it really wasn't in the spirit of the race." Makarov finished with some grumbling.

Seeing how everyone was disappointed, Naruto sighed. "Fine. I'll run the race, but only on the condition that I don't have to do the punishment if I lose. After all, I did get the scale and I was here first."

Staring each other down, neither Makarov or Naruto looked willing to give in. At least until Mirajane spoke up, "Naruto please, just do this over again?"

Looking at her, Naruto felt his resolve crumble. "Fine, you don't have to guilt me into it Mira. I'll run it."

Dropping the scale into her hands, he lined back up at the starting line. Hearing the roar of approval from the crowd made him feel slightly better, but it wasn't until Mira kissed his cheek did he start smiling. "For luck."

"Well, I wouldn't want to waste the good luck you just gave me." He said with a smirk before he crouched down.

Gathering his magic, he didn't notice that he began to glow blue. "High Speed!"

Launching off with an even greater shock wave than Jet's, he took off. Running as fast as he could, he quickly caught up with the tail end of the racers. Turning his head to look at them, he saw Happy struggling to keep up. Usually he would have gone back to help, but everyone was a rival at the moment and as such he left them in his dust.

Continuing his run, it didn't take long before he reached the middle group and left them behind too. However, he noticed that it took about three times longer to reach the front group than it did the other groups.

Getting in front of them, he saw Erza and winked at her, and even though she was wearing sunglasses, he saw her eyebrows rise. It seemed that she could track him even when he was moving as quick as he was.

Smirking he continued running until he saw a dust cloud in front of him. Channeling even more magic, he soon caught up and ran past Jet. Laughing when he saw the look of surprise, he purposely launched a large dust cloud at him.

Not staying to see the aftermath he kept on running until he saw Mt. Ivor in the distance. Running towards the peak, he grabbed another wyvern scale and took off back towards Magnolia.

x-x-x-x-x-x

"It seems like the cameras couldn't even see who had reached the mountain." Mira commented into the microphone that Jason held in his hand.

"It's so cool!" Hearing his catchphrase let Mira know that he was about to go on a long speech about coolness.

"It was Naruto, wasn't it master?" She asked Makarov who was drinking his beer.

"I hope not. This is supposed to be a 24 hour race!" He said with a blush on his face.

Seeing him slightly drunk let Mira know that he wouldn't really be doing much commentary.

x-x-x-x-x-x

"Seriously?" Naruto asked out loud as he crossed the finish line. Expecting a big cheering ovation he instead received nothing.

"I went and did this stupid race for them and then when I finish they're not even here to congratulate me? Bunch of jerks." He grumbled as he walked back towards the guild.

Whining and complaining the entire way there, he was ready to chew everyone out when he slammed the doors open. However, instead he was surprised when he was greeted with a large banner that said congratulations and from the looks of it, the entire town was there to party.

"Congratulations on winning first place and setting a new record!" Mira sang from the stage.

"Let's party!" Naruto said as jumped into the crowd.

x-x-x-x-x-x

"Ugh, someone go kill the sun." Naruto complained as he covered his eyes with his arm.

All around him, he heard the sounds of people waking up. Hearing everything get louder, he decided to get up as well. Grabbing a table, he pushed himself up and realized that he was surrounded by mugs. Lifting one up to his nose and smelling it, he realized it reeked of alcohol.

As he grabbed some of the others, he came to the realization that he had gotten drunk the night before. Except, that as he looked around he wasn't the only one that had gotten drunk. Makarov was hanging from the rafters by his pants and still asleep. A few other people were placed all over in varying states of undress. However, Jason, of all people, was still commenting on the race. If nothing else, he was really dedicated to the race commentary.

Looking around he noticed that Mira was missing. Scratching his head, he put his other hand in his pocket when he felt something in it. Pulling it out, he quickly put it back in when he realized it was lacy woman's underwear. Checking around to see if anyone saw and confirming that no one had, he ran into the basement.

Closing the door and locking it behind him, he found Mira. She was asleep on a cot. Walking over to her, he shook her gently awake. The moment she opened her eyes though, she quickly shut them again. It seemed that she had a hangover too.

"Drank too much?" Naruto teased as he felt his own hangover return after being temporarily forgotten.

"Oh please don't talk. I just need quiet." She whispered as she massaged her temples.

Getting an idea, he put his hands on her head and focused on the healing magic he had recently learned. It wasn't easy, but in a matter of moments his hands were glowing a light green.

He could tell it was having some sort of effect as Mira's face turned from a grimace to more of a light frown. "Oh please, don't stop."

Continuing the treatment, Naruto decided it was safe to talk to her. "What do you remember from last night? I just have a gigantic blank for most of last night."

Still keeping her eyes closed, Mira spoke softly, "I remember that we were partying but after a while things just start getting blurry."

"So you didn't spike everyone's drink?" He asked with surprise as he was sure that Mira had served the drinks.

"I wouldn't serve alcohol to just anyone. You know that." Mira defended as she finally opened her eyes.

"Then how the hell did everyone get drunk?" He asked himself as he tried to remember more of the night.

"I don't know, but I intend to find out." She said as she stood up and wobbled a bit. When she took a step however, she started looking around.

Seeing her look all over the place, Naruto asked, "What are you looking for?"

"Umm, you haven't seen anything black and lacy have you? It's mine and it's missing." She asked with a slight blush.

"Black and lacy?" Naruto thought before he looked at his pocket.

Pulling out the underwear, he held it in front of himself. "Is this it?"

Eyes widening, an embarrassed Mira quickly grabbed them and turning around she put them back on. "Why did you have them?"

Blushing from the fact that Mira just put her underwear back on in front of him, regardless of the fact that she still had her dress on, he answered, "I woke up with them in my pocket."

Looking at him with narrowed eyes, they quickly widened and she turned and walked out the basement.

"Weird." Naruto said as he sat on the cot and decided to go back to sleep.

x-x-x-x-x-x

"So it was Cana?" Naruto asked as he saw that Mira was looking over the inventory list.

"Yeah, she messed with the inventory list when she was bar tending." Mira explained as she had Naruto move a few barrels.

"Wait, that was a while ago. She had all of this set up in advance?" He asked setting the last barrel down and Mira checked it off from the list.

"Yup. She had these mislabeled and then she was going to buy them to keep in her apartment." She said as Naruto sat down on top of the barrels.

"Wow. That's sneaky." He was completely amazed at the lengths Cana would go to get her alcohol.

"She probably did it because Master limits how many barrels she can drink a week, but juice doesn't have a limit." She said as she began to plan punishments for Cana.

Shaking his head, he decided that since they were alone, it'd be best to ask the question that had been occupying his mind this entire time. "Why did I have your underwear in my pocket?"

Getting embarrassed, Mira giggled, "Well I remembered a bit from last night. After we all got drunk, you carried me down to the cellar to sleep. I thanked you by giving you my underwear."

"You're a weird drunk aren't you?" Naruto deadpanned as he tried to wrap his mind around that.

Giggling some more, Mira went to speak with the Master.

x-x-x-x-x-x

"You know I trained really hard trying to master that Arc of Space spell." Naruto grumbled as he laid his head on the bar.

"Wait, you only know the one spell?" Mira asked as she paused washing the mugs.

"Yeah, it's really difficult to actually use. It has a lot to do with math, spacial dimensions, and coordinates. Using it too much gives me a really bad migraine." He admitted as he flinched remembering a few nights when he over used the spell and suffered for it.

"I'm guessing math really isn't your specialty?" Mira teased a bit when he flinched.

"It's not that, though I'm not great at it, but the kind of math that Arc of Space uses is really advanced. Hell, I didn't even know it existed and I'm just kind forcing my way through. I'm pretty sure that if I actually learned how to do the math it'd be easier, but I don't really want to." He said as he started spacing out.

Getting hit on his head with a wooden spoon quickly brought him back however. "That is no way for a wizard of Fairy Tail to act."

Holding his head in shock that she smacked him, he couldn't come up with anything to say. "Not mastering the magic you use because it's too hard is no excuse. The moment you became a Fairy Tail guild member you made a promise to everyone here to protect them with all your strength."

"Okay, I'll go study." He said quickly so that she didn't keep tearing into him.

Watching him go, Mira started cleaning the mugs viciously as she tried to keep the memories that were brought up at bay.

x-x-x-x-x-x

"Why does Gildarts sound so familiar?" Naruto asked out loud as the city started going into the Gildarts shift.

"You and him both use Crash magic." Erza said as she observed the guild go crazy. "I'm pretty sure you two have probably met sometime down the line."

"Crash... magic?" He asked as the memory started coming back to him.

"That's how your magic works right? You need to see the magic in action in order for you to actually be able to reproduce it." Erza asked for clarification.

"Mira said that he just ends up destroying everything in front of him?" Naruto asked as he started clenching his hands into fists.

Looking at him gave Erza an unsettling feeling. It unsettled her so much that she stepped back away from him.

Hearing footsteps, everyone in the guild turned toward the front entrance.

Walking in with his bag over his shoulder, Gildarts looked around like he was lost. However, a moment later, he snapped his head in front of himself and raised his arm to block. Appearing in front of him in a blur, Naruto thrust his hand forward screaming, "SHINRA TENSEI!"

Completely unprepared, Gildarts was sent flying out of the guild. Taking off after him, Naruto didn't pay attention to the shouts of surprise behind him. All he had in his mind was beating the crap out of Gildarts.

x-x-x-x-x-x

"What the heck just happened?" Lucy screamed as she tried to get her bearings after that massive attack.

"I have no idea, but we have to stop Naruto. Gildarts isn't good at holding back and could seriously hurt him." Erza stated as she ran out the guild with everyone following.

Once outside though, everyone stopped. Everyone in the guild had seen Naruto use his Shinra Tensei countless times, but they all knew it was an attack that went out as a wave in front of him. It had never been directional, except that seeing that the city itself wasn't damaged that was no longer the case.

"Well at least the city wasn't damaged, Master." Mira said to Makarov who was observing the distant battle.

"That's true, but I'm more concerned over why Naruto just exploded like that." He wondered as he felt the magic from the battle begin to escalate.

"From what I understand, he and Gildarts didn't have that great of a first impression." Erza supplied as the explosions in the distance multiplied in number.

"Oh great. It's one of those." Makarov complained as he remembered countless times that Gildarts had gone and caused some sort of trouble.

"Well, let's go break it up." He said as he began to walk at a sedate pace. It wasn't like Naruto was actually going to hurt Gildarts anyway.

x-x-x-x-x-x

"Kid, I'm really not good at holding back. So can you please stop?" Gildarts asked for what seemed like the tenth time.

Just like the previous times though, all he got was a guttural scream. This time however, the kid gained an extra 4 arms.

"Well, that's a first." Gildarts said out loud as the kid charged at him again.

Tossing the kid over his shoulder, he sent out a wave of Disassembly magic in order to break the lightning the kid sent in retaliation.

"All right kid, I let you have your fun, but now it really is time to stop." Seeing the kid not even listen, he sighed.

Drawing upon all of his magic power, he unleashed it. Instantly the kid's anger seemed to vanish. Seeing the kid take a few steps back, he reigned his magic back. Taking a step forward, the kid began to scramble backwards.

"Crap, I think I over did it." He said as the kid seemed ready to pass out from fear.

x-x-x-x-x-x

Moving slowly, Naruto stealthily made his way toward the request board. Making sure his magic was keeping him invisible, he grabbed one of the jobs and made his way toward Mirajane behind the bar. Taping her thigh, he handed her the job.

"You do know that you're going to have to talk to him right?" She asked as she filed his job.

"No. All I have to do is wait for him to leave. He leaves for long periods of time. I can't wait him out." He explained with a grin as Mira just shook her head.

Grabbing the flier back from Mira, he turned to go outside when he came face to face with Gildarts.

"Look kid, I ju-"

"AHHHHHHHHHHH!" Scrambling away from Gildarts, Naruto utilized High Speed to run out of the guild.

"Jeez Gildarts, you traumatized that kid." Some random guild member said out loud as people began to laugh.

"Man, I can't even apologize without him taking off." Gildarts complained as he rubbed his scalp.

"Well what do you expect? You used all of your magic power to scare him. It's only natural that he'd be terrified to be anywhere near you." Mira said as she crossed her arms and glared at Gildarts.

"I didn't want to hurt the kid and that was the fastest way to get him to stop." He said as Mira kept glaring at him.

Walking away from her, he walked over to Makarov who was, like always, drinking beer. "Hey, master."

"I see that Naruto still runs in fear from you." Makarov said calmly.

"Yeah, I don't think he and I are going to be on speaking terms any time soon." He sighed as he spoke.

"Don't worry about it. He'll get over it. However, there's something I'd like to discuss with you." Makarov said as he put down his beer.

x-x-x-x-x-x

Hiding inside his tree, Naruto took deep breaths as he tried to calm down. Every time that he saw Gildarts, he instantly remembered him using his full power. The pure feeling of helplessness that had been invoked inside him always paralyzed him.

In fact, it wasn't really a fear of Gildarts, but a fear of that helplessness. It angered and terrified him that just seeing him could invoke such feelings. Raising his head he thought, 'Is this how Gray and Natsu feel about Erza?'

Slapping his cheeks lightly, he stood up and decided that if Natsu and Gray could deal with their fear of Erza, he could do the same with Gildarts. Opening a door in his tree, he blinked when he saw the pouring rain. Closing the door, he ran up to the top floor of his tree. Creating a balcony, he was shocked to see a vortex forming in the sky.

Activating his Battle Archive, he began to analyze the vortex. However, within moments he realized it was a gigantic space-time spell. Using his Arc of Space as a base to analyze it, he began to understand what it did and how it did it. Unfortunately, as he finished breaking it down there was a bright flash and he had to cover his eyes.

As the flash died down, he opened his eyes and saw that his tree had created a barrier around itself. Anything within the barrier had been protected from that flash, so it was the only spot of color in a white wasteland.

"Holy shit. You're a good tree." Naruto said as he patted the tree in thanks.

As the barrier dropped, he saw that parts of the surrounding landscape had been taken as well. Thankfully, Porlyusica's home was fine.

Jumping off the balcony he ran towards where the the guild used to stand. Running through the wasteland that Magnolia had now become was nerve wracking as the former city was uncomfortably silent. Using High Speed, he cut the trip short as he arrived and saw Wendy, Natsu, Happy, and Carla.

"Oh thank god, at least you four are okay." He expressed happily as he came to a stop, but at that moment they took off flying into the sky.

"OH COME ON!" He yelled as they flew up into the sky.

Conflicted, he decided to stay to see if could find any other survivors. However, his search was over before it even began as someone started fading into view.

"When I saw that your tree was covered in a barrier, I was hoping you had survived the Anima." He said as he finished appearing completely.

"Mystogan? Wait! You're that Jellal guy that always makes Erza sad! I thought you were in jail!?" Naruto exclaimed as he backed up and got himself ready for a fight.

"I don't have time to explain, but know that I am not the Jellal that you speak of. I am Mystogan." He said as he pulled some sort of container out of his pocket.

"Look whatever your name is, you called that giant spell in the sky an Anima?" He asked as the identity of fake-Jellal-Mystogan wasn't important at the moment.

"Unfortunately, I really don't have time to explain. All you need to know is that if you don't go through that portal before it closes then it's very likely that all of our friends will die." Fake-Jellal-Mystogan explained as he threw Naruto a pill.

"Look, you may not know this, but I can replicate any spell if I have enough time to study it. I saw that thing forming from the start and I saw it end. I can recreate that thing no problem, so we have plenty of time." Naruto said as he caught the pill and made it clear he wasn't going anywhere.

Sighing, Fake-Jellal-Mystogan explained. "I come from a world where magic power isn't as plentiful as Earthland. As a result the king of that world has decided to steal magic power from this one. The entire reason I was here was to make sure that couldn't happen. Unfortunately, the Animas had grown too large for me to be able to contain by myself. As a result, all of Magnolia was taken."

Absorbing all of that information in, Naruto said, "Well that was a stupid plan."

Surprised, Mystogan looked at Naruto wide eyed. "What? Were you going to spend the rest of your life stopping the Animas? Why didn't you ask us for help? We're all family aren't we?"

"This was caused by my people. I couldn't get anyone else involved." Mystogan explained shamefully.

"Seriously? Dude, you have got to work on your communication issues." Naruto said before he remembered, "Then again, I didn't tell anyone I was dying, so I guess that's makes me a hypocrite."

Seeing him laugh, helped Mystogan relax just a tiny bit and reminded him why he loved Fairy Tail. "By the way," hearing Naruto brought him back, "what's this thing for?"

Seeing him holding up the pill, he explained. "It's medicine that allows you to use magic in Edolas."

Eating the pill, a question formed in Naruto's head. "Why do we need medicine to do that?"

"I'm not really sure. Porlyusica was the one who made the medicine. She probably knows." Mystogan explained before he and Naruto heard something behind them.

"All I wanted was a cat. I didn't want to be the only dragon slayer without a cat."

Recognizing the voice, Naruto began to laugh. "Gajeel! You made it!"

"Of course, dragon slayers are immune to the absorption effects of Anima." Mystogan said out loud as he figured out what happened.

"Really? That's neat. Anyway, I'm gonna go visit Porlyusica and ask her something. Send Gajeel along and then you and I can rendezvous at her house." Flying off without waiting for an answer, Naruto flew as quickly as he could to Porlyusica's tree.

x-x-x-x-x-x

"Okay, so the reason we need the medicine is simply because of the ethernano?" Naruto asked as Porlyusica begrudgingly allowed him into her home.

"Yes, the minute difference between Earthland ethernano and Edolas ethernano makes it so that you can't consciously expel your magic power." Porlyusica said as she readied her broom.

"How much more of that medicine do you have?" He asked suddenly which made Porlyusica pause.

"Why?" She asked as she narrowed her eyes and got an inkling of what he was planning.

"Well, we have to stop the Anima from being used or else all of this will just happen again. So, in case it was needed we could get everyone to help lend a hand." He said with a grin.

"Get out." She said as she swung her broom at him.

Running out of her home, he landed just as Mystogan arrived. "Am I to assume you're finished with your business here?"

"Yeah, we're good. I just wanted to know if she had any extra medicine in case we needed it." He explained as he intertwined his fingers together.

Thrusting his hands up into the air he yelled, "Arc of Space: Anima!"

In the sky just like before, another vortex formed on a much smaller scale.

"Well, let's go! To Edolas!" He exclaimed as he activated Aera and Mystogan readied his staves.

Flying into the vortex, he saw that Mystogan was traveling inside a pillar of light. As they approached, they were blinded by a bright light. Once they could see again, he was amazed at how wondrous everything looked. In fact he would have continued exploring if Mystogan hadn't landed and signal for him to land as well.

"We have a lot of work to do. First you have to find Natsu and Wendy. As long as they can't access their magic power they'll be vulnerable." Mystogan said as he handed Naruto a small glass case with two of the pills he had taken.

"I'll look for them, but it might take me a bit. What are you going to do in the meantime?" Naruto asked as he put the case away in his Requip space.

"I'm going to go to the royal city to look for our friends. If I find them, I'll leave a marker in the outskirts of the city telling you where to find them. That way you can send them back to Earthland." Nodding to his plan, Naruto decided to change one thing.

"Give me a moment." Naruto said before he activated his Archive.

Gasping, Mystogan felt information flow into his mind. "Okay, if you find our friends all you have to think is Mark. It'll tell me where you found our friends and I'll be able to track it."

Crossing his arms, Naruto waited for the actual dangerous part of the plan."What about the Anima though? Unless we can somehow stop them from casting it again, this won't really solve anything."

"Humans of Edolas don't have internal magic containers, and as such can't control magic power directly. However, we have developed machines that can do that for us. Anima uses one such machine. I'll set it to reverse sucking all of the magic power of Edolas into Earthland. That way the Anima can never be used again." Mystogan said with certainty as Naruto's eyes widened.

"Woah, isn't that just a bit drastic? We can figure something out that won't possibly kill a whole bunch of people." Naruto said as he tried to convince Mystogan.

Shaking his head, Mystogan refused. "It's not just about magic power. The people of Edolas have grown so desperate that they'll do anything to make sure they never run out. If there's even a shred of magic power left, they'll fight."

"So the only way to save the world is to destroy it is what you're saying." Naruto said with a frown as he started clenching his hands.

"It's not the best answer, but it's the only one that'll work." Mystogan said as he clenched his eyes. "You should go. The longer Natsu and Wendy are without magic power the more in danger they'll be in."

Angry, but understanding he was right, Naruto jabbed a finger at him. "This isn't over. We'll find another way, even if I have to kick your ass to stop you from doing something monumentally stupid."

Flying away as fast as he could, Naruto didn't see Mystogan smiling sadly. "I know you'll try Naruto, but no one can stop this."

x-x-x-x-x-x

"Well, I didn't think it was possible to get bored of looking at wondrous sights, but here I am. Bored out of my mind." Naruto complained as he flew along the sky river.

For several hours now, he had been searching for any sign of Natsu and Wendy. Mostly large scale destruction. Although since Natsu was without magic power, he didn't really know how he'd cause such destruction, just that he would.

"Well fish, I guess it's just you an-" Stopping in midair he looked around until he found the direction he wanted to go.

'I know that feeling! It's space-time manipulation!'

Picking up speed, he felt the sensation get even larger before it felt like it was going to explode. Pushing himself even faster, he was able to reach the area the sensation was coming from before he saw the Fairy Tail guild disappear. However, not even a moment later a giant creature crashed right where the guild had been.

"What the hell?" Naruto asked himself as the smoke cleared and he saw Erza riding the creature.

Still staying in the air, he was about to land when he heard someone else speak up. Deciding to listen in, he heard exactly what happened to his Fairy Tail guild.

"Now that Earthlands Fairy Tail has been turned into a giant lacrima, the kingdom should have more than enough magic power to last for a decade." The man in pink armor said to the Edolas Erza.

"Good, then that means I can take my time enjoying the hunt for Fairy Tail." Edolas Erza said with a smirk.

However, that smirk disappeared when a pressure suddenly appeared all around them. Looking up, neither of the Edolas soldiers were expecting to see the torrent of magic power powering out of Naruto.

'Mystogan didn't tell me they had been turned into lacrima. That makes this all that much more time sensitive.' Naruto thought to himself as he descended and confronted them.

"You're planning to turn my friends into magic power? What kind of despicable people are you?" Naruto asked the two paralyzed soldiers.

"You two are going to tell me exactly where my friends are or you won't be leaving here alive."

x-x-x-x-x-x

Finding the Edolas Fairy Tail guild had taken a while as he needed to analyze the magical energies left at the teleportation site. Of course this was all after dealing with Knightwalker and Sugarboy.

Walking up to the door, he opened it as he remembered to shift his body as he was carrying his new sword. He also needed to see if the Levy of this world was as smart as the Levy of his world. He really needed her help.

Not caring that he was drawing attention, he looked around the room and saw that while there was a Natsu and Wendy, they weren't his Natsu and Wendy. Sighing, he closed the door behind him. "I'm looking for a few people. They both had cats with them. Their names were Natsu and Wendy."

Seeing the shocked looks coming from them, he reasoned that they knew who he was talking about. "I kinda figured that they would go to the Fairy Tail guild even if it wasn't our Fairy Tail."

"So I'm guessing that you're from the other world's Fairy Tail?" Hearing that melodious voice, Naruto turned his head and smiled when he saw it was her.

"Mira, you have no idea how good it is to see you. Even if you aren't the Mira I know." He said with a laugh. "But to answer your question, yeah I'm from Earthland. I've been trying to find Natsu and Wendy all day, but first is the Levy of this world a genius like mine?"

"I need her to drain this sword of all of its magic power." Naruto said as he stabbed the massive sword into the floor.

Turning to look at Levy, he saw her raise an eyebrow.

x-x-x-x-x-x

"Okay, I've drained the sword of all its magic power. Now it's just a giant slab of metal." Levy said as she turned her chair to look at Naruto.

"You said you're storing the magic over here right?" Naruto said as he pointed to the giant glass tube that was holding the magic from the sword.

"Yeah, we keep it separated so that we can purify it later on." She said as he as began to look at the glass tube intently.

"Now, I didn't ask questions because we desperately needed the magic power, but now that we have it I have to know why. The amount of magic this thing had is more than enough to keep us going for a few months." She said as she crossed her arms and glared at Naruto.

"The magic power isn't important. It's what the magic power is composed of that is." He said as he kept staring at the tube.

"The hell are you talking about?" She asked as she stood up and walked toward him.

"I'm talking about the ethernano. I didn't notice it at first because I was absorbing it in such small amounts, but when Knightwalker and I fought, I felt it." He explained as he began to understand exactly what was going on in Edolas.

"Knightwalker?!" Levy said as she stopped in her tracks. "The Fairy Hunter?!"

Turning his head, he looked at her and she freaked out even more. "Yeah, I fought her when I was trying to find Natsu and Lucy. Let me tell you, she might be an evil bitch, but damn if she couldn't fight just like the Erza from my world."

"What the hell happened to your eyes and how are you still alive?!" She screamed at him as she backed up into her chair.

"Oh yeah, this is my Battle Archive. I'm using it to analyze the ethernano. As for how I'm still alive? Simple, I kicked Knightwalker's ass." He said as he got back to looking at the magic power.

"That's impossible! The Fairy Hunter kills anyone who stand in her way with that damn spear of hers!" She screamed with tears in her eyes.

"Where do you think I got the sword from? I just transformed it from a spear to a sword." He said nonchalantly as she froze and looked at the sword.

"That's the Ten Commandments?" She whispered as people began to cram into the basement as they had heard Levy scream.

"Yup. There was a guy with her in pink armor, called himself Sugarboy, anyway, I used his weapon to liquefy the Ten Commandments and then I turned it into a sword." He said as he finished analyzing the ethernano.

'It really is like I thought. The ethernano used to be the same as Earthlands, but somehow it changed. As a result, there was less absorption of the ethernano from the atmosphere resulting in less magic power.' He thought as the analysis spelled it out for him.

Grabbing the Ten Commandments from the stand he had placed it, he charged it back up with his magic power. The resulting glow and release of power had everyone back up as they didn't know what was happening.

"There we go, back to full power for probably the first time in years." He said as he swung the sword.

"What the hell was that!?" Levy asked as it seemed that everyone else was speechless.

"I charged it back up with my magic. Took quite a bit too." He said as he looked the blade over to make sure he hadn't messed up in the reforming process.

Then Naruto realized what she was referring to. "Oh that's right. Earthland wizards have an internal container that stores magic. This allows us to utilize magic as needed without the use of magic tools."

Hearing whispers of things like "That's crazy," "Impossible," "He's lying," let him know that maybe he shouldn't have said that.

"Well, I got the info I came for. Can you guys point me in the direction of where Natsu and Wendy went?" He asked as he put the Ten Commandments on his back.

"You know, all of you may have different personalities than the ones from my world, but deep down you're the same." Naruto said with a smile as he stood outside the guild and everyone was prepared to send him off.

"We know you'll just ignore our warning like the other Natsu did, but you really shouldn't challenge the king." Droy said as Naruto readjusted his sword.

"It doesn't matter to us who we have to fight to save our friends. Whether it be your king, the army, or your entire damn world. We'll save them and we'll all go home." He said as he the entire guild was once again speechless.

"Your guild. It's seems to be filled with amazing people." Mirajane said with a smile.

"They're my family. They'd do the same for me." He said as he activated Aera and took off.

"Wasn't that the magic of the Exceed?" Natsu asked frightened by what he just saw.

"I think it was." Gray finished with a whisper.

The Edolas Arc is beginning! Arter this arc finishes in the next chapter probably, I'll be beginning the Tenrou Island Arc. Naruto will not be joining the S-Rank Exams.

However, there is something that I need your opinion on. Should I just continue the story after the 7 year timeskip, or should I fill in the 7 years with original stories? This does mean that Naruto would be taking center stage for most of those 7 years.

If I do the 7 year timeskip, then you'll be learning about what Naruto was up to during the 7 years piece by piece. If I don't do the timeskip, then Naruto will go on his own adventures for those 7 years. One of the things he'd be involved in is a civil war. Not in Fiore though. This means that a bunch of original characters will be making their debut.

I could even just make a separate story for those 7 years and leave this one alone. I'd like to hear your opinion on this, so please leave a review or send me a PM.
