"It's time, my children. The world has ignored our existence for far too long," the old man began as he looked at his children and siblings, each of whom had different expressions. "Tonight, we will begin to rule again. No more false gods, only us!" he declared loudly as lightning lit up the sky. However, his words did not please everyone.
"Father, this is madness!" Unable to contain herself, Athena stood up. This was a mistake. Just the idea of wiping out the Amazons and bringing their princess back was unacceptable. But to the horror of the goddesses, Zeus appeared in front of his daughter and grabbed her by the neck. Without mercy, he threw her into the center of Olympus. Shaking his head in disappointment, the Lord of Thunder looked at the Goddess of Wisdom.
"It's because of that kind of thinking that we're in this situation. Before, we were praised and glorified by mortals. Now we're nothing more than information in old books. No one believes in our existence anymore..." The sky above Olympus began to darken, and lightning bolts began striking around all the thrones. "But that will change..."
"By killing half the world... destroying their towns and filling them with fear and despair?" Athena said firmly as she stood up to face her father. This did not sit well with the King of the Olympians. "You're talking about exterminating the world! All because of your stupid desire to be glorified again!" she shouted with anger and fury. Her answer was a powerful lightning bolt that nearly pierced her head.
"Watch your tone, daughter..." Zeus said darkly, showing indifference toward his daughter's words. "Listen carefully... It's time to make a decision. Are you with us or against me?" the god asked seriously as he looked at his daughter with a dark expression. His answer came when Athena pointed her spear at him. A small tear ran down the brown-haired woman's right eye, but her expression remained firm and determined.
"You know the answer, Father." Everything fell silent as a giant sword appeared in Zeus's hands. Just as he was about to attack his daughter, a pillar of light stopped him. Growling, he saw Hera, Demeter, Hestia, Aphrodite, and Hephaestus standing in front of Athena.
"THIS IS TREASON!" he shouted furiously at this betrayal. Behind him, his brothers and sons gathered: Hades, Poseidon, Apollo, and Hermes. Silence ruled the place as the two sides stared at each other.
"This is madness, and you know it," Hera said calmly as she looked at this inevitable confrontation with a certain sadness. The Queen and King stared at each other defiantly. The goddesses and Hephaestus were at a disadvantage. Only Athena was experienced in battle. Although the others were powerful, they doubted they would be enough to stop the three main brothers of Olympus.
"You know you can't win," Hades said mockingly as he summoned purple blades connected to chains. He was going to enjoy this.
"Together, we can become what we once were. This is unnecessary," Poseidon said as he grabbed his trident and prepared himself.
"We've made too many mistakes in the past. Maybe we need a change," Hestia said this time as she took a step forward. "We are part of the past. If we attack the mortal world, we'll only create a cycle of pain and hatred. Humans will rise against us, and in recent times, we've seen how powerful some of them have become," she said calmly. This made Zeus growl. Among humans, people with special abilities had begun to appear, possessing powers that were simply unheard of.
"THAT'S WHY WE MUST ACT NOW! If we let them continue growing, it will only be a matter of time before one of them appears and challenges us! Can't you see?!" the God of Thunder shouted angrily. Sighing, he raised his sword, the Blade of Olympus, his greatest weapon. Looking at it, he then turned his gaze toward the goddesses who had dared to betray them. The two sides were about to begin their fight when footsteps were heard.
Everyone turned to see a blond dragging a dying Hercules. The demigod's arms were broken and covered in dark bruises. His face was disfigured and covered in blood. Breathing heavily, he looked at his father and the other Olympians. All the gods were stunned to see their champion in such a state.
"I did my part... Let me go..." the demigod said with difficulty as he looked at the shinobi, who threw him down in front of himself. The shinobi looked at the black-haired man as the Nemean gauntlets formed around his fists. Trembling in horror, Heracles spoke. "You swore to me..." he growled with anger and fear.
"I lied..." With brutal force, the shinobi struck Hercules's head with a right punch. The result was the destruction of the demigod's head, and blood splashed onto the floor. His headless body remained motionless. Everything fell silent on Olympus. Their champion had just been killed in a brutal and gruesome manner. The Uzumaki looked at the gods present. Moving his new weapons, he watched as they transformed back into bracelets.
"You..." Zeus was overwhelmed with rage. Lightning began striking in every direction, and deafening thunder echoed throughout Olympus. His greatest champion, his best warrior, his son, had been killed by this man. Blinded by rage, the god pointed his sword at the shinobi. "How dare you?! You come here and kill my son right before my eyes!" At his words, Naruto raised an eyebrow.
"How dare I...? You're the one who dared to attack my home. You practically declared war on the people I care about. You sent this bastard to take away my student. Everything you do has consequences," he said calmly as he walked closer to the gods. "I want to avoid shedding any more blood, so I'll only say this once... Attack my home again, and I'll kill you." After saying those words, he turned around and walked away from the Greeks.
Zeus stood there, staring at the shinobi's back. That man had just threatened him, the King of Olympus, son of Cronus and Rhea, the God of Lightning. Everyone trembled in his presence, yet this miserable mortal had threatened to kill him. "NO ONE THREATENS ME AND TURNS THEIR BACK ON ME!" With his sword in hand, he ran toward the Uzumaki.
Athena used her maximum speed to try to prevent the Uzumaki's death. However, she was surprised when she saw the King of Olympus being sent flying back by a kick from the mortal, who had a serious expression. Everyone watched in disbelief as Zeus crashed into his throne, destroying it. He was buried beneath the rubble, and everything fell silent.
"Then I'll have to kill you..." the Uzumaki said calmly. The shinobi watched as the pile of rubble was swept away by a pillar of lightning that rose into the sky. In the middle of it all stood Zeus, his face filled with fury. His eyes were now light blue and shining intensely.
