"KILL HIM!" Everything seemed to move in slow motion. Poseidon launched a frontal attack with his trident. From the right came Hermes, running at incredible speed. Apollo attacked the Uzumaki's back with a sword of light. From the right, Hades's blades went straight for the intruder's head and neck. Finally, Zeus appeared above him with his sword raised. Just millimeters before their attacks could connect, they were all blinded and struck by a dazzling golden light.
"..." Once the light began to fade, they saw him. It was the Uzumaki, who now wore a golden cloak and matching pants. His skin had become slightly paler, and his hair floated in the air, glowing yellow. Two locks of hair stood up, forming something similar to horns. Black markings made of circles and thick lines could be seen all over his body and clothes. Behind the blond, ten dark spheres floated in the air. Opening his eyes, he revealed yellow eyes with pupils shaped like plus signs.
Everything fell silent. All those who had attacked the Uzumaki recovered and stared in disbelief at their opponent's great transformation. Slowly, he walked toward the gods. Passing by a frozen Athena, he ignored her, along with the other goddesses and Hephaestus.
"DON'T THINK THAT SOME GLOW MAKES YOU BETTER THAN US!" Apollo shouted as he ran toward the Uzumaki. Spears of light formed in the god's hands. Throwing them at his opponent, he expected to kill him, but Naruto simply waited calmly. Raising his hand, one of the spheres behind his back transformed into a staff, which he used to destroy the weapons coming toward him.
"Idiot," was the last whisper Apollo heard before dozens of black rods pierced through him. Falling backward, he remained motionless. The gods watched in fear. He had just killed the God of the Sun without any trouble.
"BASTARD!" Naruto was pushed back when he received a powerful blow from Hermes, who was running around him at supersonic speed. Blinded by rage, the god attacked the blond, landing multiple blows. "YOU SHOULDN'T HAVE MESSED WITH US!" he shouted as he prepared to land a right punch, but he hadn't expected his arm to be caught. Horrified, he looked at the Uzumaki's dark expression.
"You shouldn't have messed with me either." Without mercy, the shinobi kicked Hermes's right leg, breaking it in a gruesome manner. Grabbing him by the neck, he repeatedly slammed him against the ground. Finally, he lifted him up and threw him into the sky. Forming hand signs, Naruto inhaled and then exhaled. Thousands of air bullets flew toward the god, who could only scream in pain as the attack tore him apart. The compressed air bullets pierced through him as if he were made of paper.
Finally falling to the ground, Hermes groaned in pain. Golden blood stained the floor. Hearing footsteps, he looked up and saw the blond standing in front of him. Before he could even scream, a dark steel rod pierced through his head. The shinobi pulled out the rod, which transformed back into a dark sphere and floated toward its owner. Slowly, the blond turned to look at the three remaining brothers.
"WHAT KIND OF MONSTER ARE YOU?" Zeus asked, looking at the blond with hatred, but Naruto remained silent. "ARE YOU A GOD FROM ANOTHER WORLD?!" he shouted in frustration. That bastard had just killed two of his sons as if they were flies.
"I'm not a god... I'm something better than that. I'm a human." Saying that, he jumped toward the three brothers, who also attacked. Naruto easily deflected Hades's flaming blades. Grabbing the chain attached to the weapons, he pulled the god toward him. With an angry shout, the blond brutally punched the God of the Underworld, sending him flying. However, he had no time to rest as he was forced to dodge the pillars of water sent by the God of the Sea.
"DIE!" Zeus shouted as he placed his hands on the ground. Electricity traveled through the water covering the floor. Before the blond could jump away, he was electrocuted. Growling in pain, he saw an enormous wave of fire coming from Hades. Engulfed in flames, Naruto growled. With a powerful jump, he escaped the fire, only to see a serpent made of water crash into him. Dragged along by the water, he slammed into the ground.
But the attack didn't end there. Hundreds of lightning bolts struck him. After several minutes, the lightning finally stopped. The three Olympian brothers smiled in triumph, believing they had won, until an injured and furious Naruto appeared behind them. Forming hand signs, water began to gather around him and take the shape of a water dragon, which crashed into Hades. The god was carried away by the attack, and the water began to reform, forming a sphere around him. The god found himself trapped inside a sphere of water.
"BROTHER!" Before Poseidon could help his brother, he was attacked by a river of lava that surrounded him. The blond had spat out the lava attack before taking one of his Truth-Seeking Orbs and forming a miniature Biju-dama, which he drove into Zeus's chest as the god tried to attack him from behind. The God of Thunder was sent flying into the sky, where the sphere exploded against him, creating a massive shock wave. Mount Olympus began to crumble, leaving only the pantheon where the battle continued.
"..." Silence was all that could be heard among the spectators, who watched the seemingly unstoppable shinobi with fear and disbelief. An elderly Hephaestus looked at his mother. "What will he do to us once he's finished with them?" It was the question on all the goddesses' minds, but they remained silent.
"He came because of the attack on the Amazons... We just have to stay out of it," Athena said simply as she continued watching the battle.
In the river of lava, a small dome began to form until it burst into a geyser of water. Poseidon looked at his condition. More than 70% of his body was burned, and all the burns were third-degree or even worse. With half his face burned, he watched the shinobi walk toward the sphere of water containing Hades.
"Water Coffin," Naruto said as he raised his right hand and pointed it toward the sphere. Closing his palm, the sphere began to shrink. Screaming, Hades tried to escape his prison, which continued compressing more and more. Finally, his body couldn't withstand the pressure and burst apart along with the sphere of water. Naruto slowly lowered his hand, but he had to move aside when Poseidon's trident nearly pierced him. Catching the weapon in midair, he looked at the God of the Sea.
"YOU KILLED MY BROTHERS! You dare call us monsters and judge us? You're no hero for stopping us! Do you think we're the only threat...?" Taking a breath, the God of the Sea looked at the shinobi with hatred as Naruto walked toward him. Once they stood face-to-face, the two stared at each other. "We saved this world from threats you could never imagine. The Titans had this world beneath their feet. We helped this world by preventing its destruction!"
"You saved it, and now you want to destroy it. I heard your plan... You deserve this end." Taking the trident, Naruto pierced the God of the Sea's chest. Driving the weapon into the ground, he looked at the god's motionless body. "He's right... I'm not a hero." Turning around, he saw an exhausted Zeus walking toward him. The god was in terrible condition and could barely keep his sword raised.
"You... Do you know what you've done?" he asked tiredly as blood ran from his mouth. Driving his sword into the ground, he leaned on it to keep himself from falling.
"I saved my home... and I'll do the same to anyone who tries to attack my home and the people I love," the blond answered as he let his Ashura cloak drop. The shinobi was unharmed, with only a few scratches on his clothes. This made a lump form in the spectators' throats. He didn't even seem tired. So much power in a single person was simply terrifying.
"Hehehe... Maybe not today or tomorrow, brat, but you're wrong if you think you've saved the world." Laughing sinisterly, the god stood up. Small bolts of lightning surrounded him. Raising his sword, he pointed it toward the Uzumaki, who only frowned. "Beyond the stars, there are beings who can't even be compared to us... Believe me, if I told you about the beings that exist outside this world... If they come... You won't be able to save them... and you'll die along with this world."
"Then I'll die trying." Naruto kicked the god and snatched his sword away. Using the sword, he pierced Zeus's chest, leaving him pinned to the ground. Releasing the sword, he sighed. Staring into the distance, he began walking. He just wanted to go home. Slowly, he passed by the only surviving Greek gods. "Don't make the same mistakes they did..." With those final words to the goddesses, he left.
"..." Hera slowly looked around Olympus. Everything was destroyed. Sighing, she walked through the rubble. Apparently, the war within Olympus had resolved itself. Moving her hands, she made all the rubble begin to disappear. Little by little, everything was rebuilt.
"What now?" Aphrodite asked, looking at her Queen. Everything fell silent. The deaths of the male gods were still engraved in their minds.
"Fulfill that man's request," Athena said as she walked over to Hera. It was time to rebuild Olympus, a new Olympus.
Don't miss out!
