If you are a Green Card holder and want US citizenship down the road, it is best to not apply for a re-entry permit in the first place; candidates should not leave the US for more that 6 months.
So, you want the citizenship. Come back with that re-entry, and be sure to obey 6-month rule for next 5 years. Even then, if you leave the US for,say, 1,2,4 months during these 5 years, you will need to add them to the 5 year starting date to apply and get it. Be certain that you qualify with the time spent in US before you apply to save time and money.... 5 years of "real stay" with no over 6 months is necessary to win your case.
