Whoosh!
A portal through time and space opened, and Uchiha Kitaro stepped through.
The moment he arrived, he immediately sensed something different about this world. The air was brimming with a distinct energy he could clearly feel.
"This is interesting," Kitaro muttered, his lips curving into a faint smile. "Looks like I've landed in a high-energy world."
This discovery thrilled him. A world like this was bound to hold secrets and power worth exploring.
Activating his Observation Haki, Kitaro quickly detected a town in the distance.
"Perfect, a world with people."
He'd been to lifeless worlds before—some that showed traces of humanity but seemed to have faced catastrophic endings. This time was different.
Heading toward the town, he soon found himself in its lively streets. The architecture bore some resemblance to the world of One Piece, sparking a sense of familiarity.
Spotting someone walking alone, he approached and gently tapped the stranger on the shoulder.
"Can I help you?" the man asked, a bit puzzled.
Kitaro's Sharingan flared subtly as he used its hypnotic abilities.
"Where am I?"
"This is the Kingdom of Fiore, in the town of Hargeon."
"Fiore? Hargeon?" The names sounded oddly familiar to Kitaro.
"What kind of extraordinary powers exist in this world?"
"This world has mages."
"Mages? A magical world? Interesting. And where do these mages gather?"
"The strongest mages are in guilds."
Hearing this, Kitaro's mind raced. "Wait… Describe some of these mage guilds."
"There's Fairy Tail…"
"Stop!" Kitaro interrupted, his voice sharp. "Say that again!"
"Fairy Tail," the man repeated.
Kitaro froze for a moment. Fiore, Hargeon, mages, Fairy Tail…
It clicked.
"I've… I've crossed into the Fairy Tailworld?!"
His eyes widened in surprise. Another anime world. Adding this to Naruto, Demon Slayer, and One Piece, this made four anime universes he had entered.
Among them, Fairy Tail was a personal favorite. Unlike the harsh struggles of Naruto, the tragic brutality of Demon Slayer, or the chaotic world of One Piece, Fairy Tail had a lighter, more uplifting tone. At least it was for him.
Despite battles and conflicts, the guild's warmth, camaraderie, and family-like bonds made it a joy to experience. Tasks assigned to guild members were straightforward and reminiscent of the missions in Konoha.
"If I could choose any anime world to visit, Fairy Tail would have been my pick," Kitaro thought with a grin. And now, here he was.
No wonder the air felt so alive—it was filled with magical energy, likely the natural magic of this world.
With that settled, Kitaro turned to leave.
"Huh? What just happened?" The man blinked in confusion, unable to recall their encounter.

A short while later, Kitaro boarded a train heading for Magnolia.
If there was anything valuable in this world, it was undoubtedly magic. The power of magic in Fairy Tail rivaled, and sometimes surpassed, the level of S-rank jutsu.
The strongest beings here were dragons and gods. While gods had yet to make direct appearances, their descendants, such as members of the Alvarez Empire's Spriggan 12, showcased their power.
Dragons, on the other hand, were legendary creatures whose strength could rival tailed beasts. The mightiest of them, Acnologia, might even surpass Kurama, the Nine-Tails.
From a power perspective, this world's system could stand toe-to-toe with those of Naruto and One Piece, potentially even surpassing them in certain aspects.
A few hours later, Kitaro stood before the doors of the Fairy Tail guild.
It was just as he remembered. Though over twenty years had passed since he last saw the anime, the imagery remained vivid in his mind.
To think he was now standing here, in person, was surreal.
Years ago, he might have been overwhelmed with excitement. But now, after so many experiences, he simply felt a calm satisfaction.
Pushing the doors open, a wave of cheerful noise hit him.
People were laughing, drinking, playing games, and scanning the request board for new missions.
Amid the lively scene, a familiar figure caught his eye.
A woman with long white hair, a sweet and charming face, flawless fair skin, and a stunning figure stood behind the counter. She wore a red dress and smiled brightly, exuding both beauty and warmth.
Kitaro instantly recognized her—Mirajane Strauss, one of Fairy Tail's S-class mages.
Though not part of the main protagonist group, her beauty and kindness left a lasting impression on him.
Judging by her appearance, it seemed he had arrived at just the right time.
Walking up to the counter, he caught her attention.
Mirajane noticed him immediately, slightly taken aback by his striking appearance. His aura radiated strength and composure. Smiling politely, she said, "Hello there! How can I help you?"
"I've heard about Fairy Tail's great reputation," Kitaro replied with a calm but friendly tone. "I'd like to join your guild."
Mirajane blinked in surprise. "Oh! You're here to join? That's wonderful! Unfortunately, our guild master isn't here right now, but if you don't mind waiting, he should be back soon."
"That's fine," Kitaro nodded. "In the meantime, could I trouble you for a beer and some food?"
"Of course! Coming right up!" she replied cheerfully.
As Mirajane moved to prepare his order, Kitaro took a seat, letting himself relax.
This world was going to be fun.
