A.N: Here we are folks. The much-anticipated part 2 of the series that is easily my most ambitious and most original project in Fanfiction. This is mainly a buildup chapter as the allies prepare for war in the Kingdom of Fiore. I have placed this story in the Bleach/Naruto crossover section because I already placed the Prologue in that section. It makes sense to continue in that area. I hope you all enjoy this story.

Five Worlds War: Fairy Tail Campaign

Chapter 1: Preparations

It had been several days since the Five World Alliance had been ratified and completely organized. After discussing their next move, they decided to take the Wizard World first before the other four worlds. With this in mind, they immediately moved towards their chosen headquarters: The capital city of Fiore, Crocus.

Crocus looked normal on the inside, in spite of the increased number of residents due to the refugees coming in to escape the Being of Chaos, Konton's advance. Added to that was Defense Division Commander Jura Neekis directing troop movement. However, the outside of Crocus was a completely different story. Tents have been set up as homes for the several thousand soldiers who had come to fight for the sake of the universe. Back on the inside, in the king's castle, in particular, the designated war room bustled with activity.

Lord Chitsujo, the Being of Order, sat at the head of the table with the King of Fiore, Toma E. Fiore next to him. They were surrounded by the leaders of the other four worlds, including the supreme commander, Monkey D. Dragon, and the regimental commanders, Shunsui Kyōraku and Tsunade. Chitsujo looked grim yet serious as he motioned for a servant to bring him a map of Fiore.

Chitsujo unrolled the map and gestured to a red line that ran through the landmass that is Fiore. "The area to the right is the area under Konton's control." Chitsujo began. "They have several geographical advantages including one of two railroads, the mountains, the only port, and the forest."

"They can position their troops any way they want to." Dragon noted.

Chitsujo nodded at this. "So what do we do than?" Tsunade asked.

"We have plenty of options, but there is one thing that we must start with, regardless of what we do next." Said Chitsujo.

"We need to send the Stealth Division behind enemy lines for observation and cause any chaos for the enemy. Something Konton can appreciate."

Chitsujo slightly grinned at this. Konton, as the Being of the Chaos, could definitely appreciate a little chaos. "What do we do afterwards?" Shunsui asked.

"What we must do is cover all bases. We cannot afford to leave any stone unturned." Said Chitsujo.

"Therefore, Beckman and I have determined this strategy," Chitsujo continued, "we will send a five-front assault in two waves. Half of the divisions will be in the first wave, while the other half will make up the second wave."

Everyone waited for Chitsujo to explain. "First off, we will send the First Division into the forest, starting with the Worth Woodsea. Shunsui, I'm counting on you to drive the enemy backwards and out of the forest."

Shunsui nodded. "That makes sense, anyone else would be restricted in their movements. The First Division's close-ranged fighting style will serve them well."

Chitsujo nodded before continuing. "Meanwhile, the Second Division will attack the towns in between the mountains and the railway in the southeast. There will be a heavy concentration of enemies due to the buildings. That will probably be the most difficult area."

Dragon spoke up. "Sabo won't mind the challenge. He loves it."

"Speaking of the railways, the Third Division will be taking that area. That area is crucial because the railways also connect with Hargeon, the only port town in Fiore."

"As I'm sure you all realize," Chitsujo continued, "with the port town, the enemy can send a naval assault more easily. Taking Hargeon will be crucial."

Everyone nodded at this. "Also," said Chitsujo, "taking the railway will cut off their supplies."

Chitsujo looked at Tsunade. "Make sure Kakashi knows the importance of his division's assignment. I don't need him acting lazy at a time like this."

Tsunade grinned. "I'll threaten his 'area' if he tries to be lazy about this."

The males shuddered and crossed their legs at this. "Okay, moving on." Chitsujo squeaked.

Tsunade could not help but chuckle at making the Being of Order, the man who was practically God, shudder in fear. "Anyways," Chitsujo began, "the Fourth Division will be assigned to moving through the mountains. That area is rather dangerous due to the terrain. However, the Fourth Division is in the best possible situation due to their long-ranged techniques."

Makarov Dreyar nodded in agreement. "They're the best one for the job. And something tells me Konton won't care about the danger the mountainous terrain holds."

"Finally, the Fifth Division will move through the area between the mountains and the forest up in the northeast. Because of the mostly wide spaces, the division, as the specialist division, will be free to go all out as much as they please."

Considering the damage some of them can do, it makes sense. A thought, thinking of Killer B and Naruto Uzumaki.

"As for the remaining support divisions," Chitsujo continued, "the Medical Division will divide up and assist the field medics of the fighting divisions. The Intelligence Division and the Defense Division will remain here. All information will be supplied from the Intelligence Division and the Defense Division will keep Crocus safe from any surprise attacks. I don't expect many enemies to get through the defensive line created by my men and the Fiore Army, but at the same time I won't put it past Konton to find some way to move past that unseen."

"Agreed, caution is good to have in war." Said Ōnoki, the Third Tsuchikage.

"Now just remember, all of you," said Chitsujo, "this is not just for the sake of your individual worlds. This is for the sake of all worlds. If Konton wins this war, he won't stop here. He will continue his conquest, all for the sake of plunging the universe into chaos."

"Can I count on all of you in this trifling times?" Chitsujo asked them all.

Each and every person nodded with absolute resolve. "Are there any questions?" Chitsujo asked.

Mei Terumī spoke up. "Do we have the numbers for all of these campaigns?"

Chitsujo nodded. "We have a total of 600,000 soldiers. And if all else fails, I will use some of my strength to resurrect some of your comrades. But only as a last resort."

"Are there any more questions?" Chitsujo asked.

Nobody responded. "Well than, good luck to all of you."

Ichigo Kurosaki had not been surprised when he had been assigned to the First Division under Head Captain, now Regimental Commander, Kyōraku. Other than his Getsuga Tenshō he was a brawler, perfect for the close-ranged division. He looked around at the tense-looking soldiers.

They're right to be tense, he thought, they're all going to war soon.

"Ichigo!" Shouted a familiar voice.

Ichigo spun around and smiled at the bearer of the familiar voice. "Hey there, Luffy." Ichigo grinned.

Monkey D. Luffy walked up to Ichigo with a blonde man in black and a green-haired man with three swords flanking him. "Are you in the Second Division?" Luffy asked hopefully.

Ichigo shook his head. "I'm in the First Division under Head Captain Kyōraku. I probably wouldn't fit in with the Second Division anyway."

Luffy looked sad at this but he quickly brightened up. "That's okay, Zoro and Sanji are in the First Division too. But I'm in the Second Division under my big brother Sabo."

Sanji lit a cigarette. "Nice to meet you Ichigo."

Ichigo frowned at Sanji smoking. "Those are bad for you, you know."

A vein popped out of Sanji's forehead as he took a long drag. "Whatever." He simply replied, restraining himself from kicking Ichigo in the jaw.

Zoro studied Ichigo. "Luffy told me that you took on a member of CP9, Kaku."

Ichigo nodded. Zoro looked at the two swords at Ichigo's hips. "And I see you use two-sword style." Zoro continued.

"Yeah, I guess I do." Ichigo replied.

Zoro grinned. "Luffy also tells me your pretty strong."

"Yeah, I am." Said Ichigo.

Zoro's grin remained. "Maybe when we've got some down time we can fight."

Ichigo could not help but grin back. "Yeah, maybe we can."

"Well, looks like the gang's mostly here." Said another familiar voice.

Ichigo and Luffy turned to the source of the voice and smiled. Naruto Uzumaki walked up to them with Sakura Haruno at his side. "Naruto." Ichigo and Luffy said in unison.

"I saw you two over here and I thought I'd say hi." Naruto said to his two new friends.

Luffy looked at Naruto. "Where's Natsu?" He asked, referring to the Fire Dragon Slayer of the Fairy Tail Guild.

Naruto gestured further down behind him. "He's talking to Kakashi-Sensei. I think he wants some tips on how to fight the guy him and Kakashi-Sensei fought back at Chitsujo's place."

"The guy he fought, wasn't he Pigeon Guy?" Luffy asked.

Naruto and Ichigo looked at him confused. "Luffy's talking about Rob Lucci, the strongest member of CP9." Said Sanji.

"Yeah, I think that's who Natsu is talking to Kakashi-Sensei about." Said Naruto.

"He's the one," said Ichigo, "I watched those fights while I was fighting with Kaku. That Lucci guy was strong, really strong."

"He fought Luffy to a standstill two years ago." Zoro told them.

"Yeah, but I won." Luffy said.

"Than perhaps you should give Natsu some tips, Luffy." Said Naruto.

Luffy shook his head. "No can do."

"Why not?" Ichigo was surprised.

"Pigeon Guy has no weaknesses. He almost killed me with nothing but brute strength. The only way you can possibly hope to defeat him is to beat him up until he doesn't get up anymore." Luffy explained, being uncharacteristically serious.

Zoro and Sanji looked at one another grimly. Like the rest of the Straw Hats, other than Brook, they had watched some of that fight, Lucci had been one of Luffy's toughest opponents before they had reached the New World.

"Damn." Ichigo muttered.

Luffy then surprised everyone by grinning again. "But Natsu will beat Pigeon Guy next time. After all, he fought me to a standstill just like Ichigo and Naruto did."

Luffy looked at Naruto. "So, Naruto, are you in the Second Division or the First Division?" Luffy asked.

Naruto shook his head. "Neither," he said, "I'm in the Fifth Division under some guy named Jellal Fernandes."

Ichigo had met Jellal when he had brought the man to his world to have his eyesight restored by Orihime Inoue. Jellal had thanked the two profusely and then departed back to his world.

"But Sakura here is in the First Division. She's going to be one of the field medics."

Sakura smiled politely at them all. "I'll do my best to keep all of you alive." She told them.

Sanji immediately went into 'love-cook' mode. "I'm sure you will Sakura my love!" He shouted running towards her with hearts in his eyes.

Sakura shrieked at Sanji's sudden display of affection and punched him in the face, sending him flying backwards. Ichigo and Naruto paled at Sakura's strength while Luffy and Zoro simply laughed.

"I wonder what division Natsu is in." Luffy wondered, completely forgetting about Sanji.

"Natsu told me he is in the Third Division under Kakashi-Sensei." Said Naruto.

"Aww, none of us are in the same division." Luffy said sadly.

"It's not a total loss." Said Ichigo. "I'm sure the divisions will be doing joint operations at some point."

"Ichigo has a point." Naruto noted.

Ichigo looked at Sakura. "You're a part of the First Division, right? Why don't you come with me and we'll join the others."

"Thank you…err…"

"Ichigo Kurosaki." Ichigo stuck out his hand.

"Sakura Haruno." Sakura shook it.

The two started walking down to where the members of the First Division had gathered. Zoro followed and Sanji, after recovering, followed as well.

"We'll see you on the battlefield, Luffy, Naruto." Ichigo called.

Naruto gave Ichigo a thumbs-up. "You got it Ichigo."

Squad 11 Captain Kenpachi Zaraki grinned at the people surrounding him as he took another swig of sake. Sitting around him were his best subordinates, Third Seat and Fifth Seat Ikkkaku Madarame and Yumichika Ayasegawa, Fairy Tail's ace, Gildarts Clive, and Rock Jōnin Kurotsuchi, who were all drinking sake.

"I'm really looking forward to this." Kenpachi said, still grinning like a madman.

Ikkaku and Yumichika grunted in agreement. Kurotsuchi raised her sake. "I'll drink to that. I can't wait to prove the might of the Rock Village against these bastards."

Gildarts nodded, taking another sip of sake. "War's a bad thing, but I do love a good fight. And it is for the good of the Fairy Tail Guild."

"Hey there, Kenpachi, Ikkaku, Yumichika."

The three men in question turned to see Ichigo Kurosaki approaching them, flanked by Roronoa Zoro, Sanji, and Sakura Haruno. Kenpachi grinned upon seeing the first man to defeat him in combat. "Yo, Ichigo, good to see you kid."

Ikkaku offered the four newcomers drink. "Sake?" He offered.

Zoro grinned. "I'll take you up on that offer."

Sanji shrugged. "Sure what the hell."

Ichigo and Sakura both shook their heads. The purists both insisted that they were underaged. This got a laugh from Kenpachi. "Old enough to kill, old enough to drink." He said, even though he accepted their answers.

"So, Ichigo," Ikkaku began, "you fought one of these new guys. How strong was he?"

Ichigo sighed. "Pretty damn strong. Probably low-captain class."

Kenpachi raised an eyebrow. "How the hell did you have trouble than? From what I heard he gave you some bad wounds."

Ichigo narrowed his eyes at this. "I underestimated that bastard. It won't happen again." He replied.

"Damn good reply." Kenpachi said, taking another swig of sake. "I just hope I meet someone incredibly strong. Haven't had a good fight in ages."

Hinata Hyūga panted as she finished practicing her Gentle Fist Style. The redheaded Soul Reaper known as Renji Abarai whistled in appreciation at this. "That was amazing," he complimented, "I'm glad you're on our side."

Hinata blushed at Renji's compliment. "Thank you, Lt. Abarai."

"The Hyūga Clan seems to be as strong as the dossier claims." Said a youthful voice.

Renji and Hinata turned around to see the commander of the Second Division coming towards them. "Commander Sabo," Hinata bowed respectfully.

Sabo grinned. "You're really strong. Abarai stated it perfectly, I'm glad you're on our side."

Hinata kept blushing. Hearing all these compliments was new to her. "Hey, Sabo!"

Sabo looked to the source of the voice and grinned. Luffy ran towards his last living sworn brother. "What's up Luffy?" Sabo greeted.

Luffy grinned. "Are we moving out soon."

"I hope so," Sabo admitted, "waiting isn't going to do anything for us."

Luffy then noticed Hinata and Renji's presence. He then looked closely at Hinata. She blushed hotly at how close they were. "You have strange eyes." Luffy said simply.

Hinata blinked in surprise at Luffy's choice of words. Luffy then looked at Renji. "I like your sunglasses." Said Luffy.

Renji grinned. "Thanks."

"So the guy really turned into a leopard?" Natsu Dragneel inquired.

Kakashi Hatake nodded, still focused on reading Make-Out Paradise. "His power increases exponentially when he uses it." He told Natsu absently.

"Wow," Happy said in awe, "I've met talking cats but not cat-people."

"Well, what else?" Natsu asked. "What else?"

Kakashi giggled at the contents of his book. This was starting to annoy Natsu. Kakashi had been focused on his book from the beginning of their conversation about Rob Lucci. Natsu eventually got fed up with this and set his hand on fire. Natsu quickly grabbed the book, burning it.

Kakashi's uncovered eye widened as he cried out in surprise. He watched in horror as his book burned to smithereens. He immediately started to whimper at the destruction of his favorite books. Natsu, oblivious to how Kakashi felt at the moment, kept on pressing the matter.

"So what other tips can you give me?" Natsu asked.

On the side, Suigetsu Hōzuki laughed at the destruction of Kakashi's book. Jūgo of the Scales then walked up to him. "Suigetsu," he said, "Sasuke wants you for a spar again."

Suigetsu groaned at this. "Dammit, can't I get a moment of peace. I was just about to see Kakashi's go crazy from losing that perverted book of his."

Byakuya Kuchiki, the commander of the Fourth Division, sat calmly as he conversed with Shikamaru Nara about tactics. Byakuya had found that he enjoyed the lazy genius' company because of his intelligence.

"Have you looked at the map of Fiore?" Byakuya asked. "Have you found any appropriate tactics?"

Shikamaru nodded. "I went over it last night." He admitted. "Then, I came up with some strategies in the morning."

"And what have you concluded?" Byakuya asked.

"The enemy has a major geographic advantage at the moment, what with the forest and the mountains." Said Shikamaru. "There's no doubt in my mind that an enemy attack will come from those areas. Also, the railways are key due to the supplies they will transport."

"Therefore," Shikamaru continued, "meeting the enemy at the mountains and the forest will be crucial. Perhaps the First, Second, or Third Division will attack the forest. However, the Fourth Division is definitely going for the mountains. It's a drag, but we're the only group that makes sense."

Byakuya nodded. "I figured as much, what do you think we should do?"

Shikamaru got into his thinking pose. "We should have the soldiers with the longest range stationed on the edge of the mountains. That way, they can fire at anyone on the other side. Anyone else can take the front lines."

Jellal Fernandes smiled happily as he took in the sights he had been unable to see for such a long time. When Orihime Inoue had restored his sight, he had been shocked, but he had been thrilled. Not only was he now able to see again, but now he was going to be a much more effective commander of his division. He watched as the woman he loved sparred with Squad 7 Captain Sajin Komamura.

"Your really good." Erza Scarlet complimented.

Komamura smirked. "Not at all, I'm nothing compared to some of the real masters in the Soul Society. Why did you choose to spar with me?"

Erza looked at him innocently. "I like your head. I think it's cute that you are a dog."

Komamura and Jellal blinked in surprise. Naruto Uzumaki then entered the fray. "Those two are really strong." Naruto said to Jellal.

Jellal nodded in agreement. "Erza will surpass me one day. She's an amazing woman." He replied.

"Hey, you're Jellal, right? The commander of our division?" Naruto asked.

Jellal nodded. "I'm Jellal Fernandes."

"Naruto Uzumaki, it's nice to meet you."

"Yo," Killer B joined in. "That girl's got grace, and not just a pretty face."

Jellal blinked in surprise at Killer B's blunt interest in Erza. "My man, is she available?" B asked.

"No!" Jellal replied.

Erza and Komamura stopped. Erza blushed at this, knowing what Jellal meant. "I'm not available, Jellal?" She asked.

Jellal quickly shook his head. "Nope, of course you are. In fact, why don't one of you fine gentleman ask her out."

With that, Jellal quickly left. "So how about it baby…" B began.

"No," Erza replied.

She smiled at Jellal's accidental display of affection. Maybe one day, she thought, I will be unavailable for real.

Several minutes passed. Soon, Monkey D. Dragon, Shunsui Kyōraku and Tsunade entered the campsite. Dragon cleared his throat as everyone immediately went dead silent upon seeing that their supreme commander was going to give a speech.

"I'm not going to sugarcoat this in any way." Dragon began. "We are leaving tomorrow. Your commanders, if they don't already know, will be briefed on their assignments. They will do the same for you. Tomorrow, we will begin our march on the enemy."

Dragon looked at everyone. "I know some of you are nervous. I understand completely. Even I was nervous when I founded the Revolutionary Army. However, you must quell your nerves and summon the courage inside of you. We are fighting for our future! Right now, we are not five different worlds; we are one allied force fighting for what we believe in. With that being the case, we cannot possibly lose! So we will fight, and we will win! Are you all with me?"

The cheering was all the answer Dragon had.

A.N: And with that, the war is underway. The next chapter shows the Allied Forces beginning their march through Fiore. I hope you all enjoyed this chapter. In particular, I hope you all enjoyed the interactions between the many different characters of the four different anime. See you all next time.
