Gaara.
And S class isn't about leading. The "good" S-class mages always went out on their own (Mystogan, Gildartz, etc.).
The only two things an S-class mage really needs are strength and good combat decision-making skills. Natsu most definitely has the strength, and he has been shown to be a fairly quick thinker when it comes to actual battles.
That aside, he has out-done Erza multiple times, so he more than qualifies

And Gildartz didn't exactly back down; he more got his ass kicked so quickly than he wasn't actually able to fight back, which is quite a different story.
As for this chapter...meh, was kind of expected. Random adventure to find fairy tail members again. I doubt the fairy tail members who went missing have undergone any changes; they were already strong and/or getting strong at a good pace.
Ok maybe that was a dumb thing to say in Naruto but still he still needs some growing up to do.
Yeah Mytigun and Gildartz went on their own and yes you don't need to be a leader.
I went away from what I was trying to say on my first posts.
I was talking about every single one of them, including Levy, to be on the S Class Level.
Beause Honestly even though Natsu, Gray and Luvia are on the S Class level,
there are still some characters that needs more experience like Elfman, Cana, Levy and even Lucy and Wendy, who still doesn't cut it.
Edit: have to include Lucy on my point.
