BEFORE THE STORY: Yes ANOUTHER story. Hey, this is a Christmas present, so yeah. I am working on the others, so that's something. I am willing to bet that my God of Monsters story will be updated in January. Maybe. So yeah. This was on my mind and I just wanted to lay down the ground work for this story.
Millions of years before the possibility of Chakra, Humanity had machines of great and terrible power. Among the mess of the world was a creation known as the pantheon. A pantheon is not a machine so much, as it is a creation from human belief. The Greek Gods, Roman Gods, Egyptian Gods, all of them existed. A single pantheon could destroy all 5 Great Shinobi villages with ease. But they don't exist anymore, not because of fading or any of that stupid bullshit, no they all died in a war of near apocalyptic levels. Humanity of this era entered a war time of such height that they and the Gods ended up destroying themselves in a hope of ultimate victory, minus the Christian religion in terms of the Pantheon. No country survived. At least government wise. 99.9% of the worlds population of humans died off in the war, leaving a handful alive to end up forming what will be known as the Elemental Countries. But that is not the focus here, as not ALL of the Gods died. Only 4 survived. Chaos, Fierce Deity (Never fought in the war as he was doing Omniverse duties), Christian God (The Christian Religion was never involved due to fear. What I don't know for sure.), and the God of Earth Link.
Now who is Link? He is a god that was born right as the war began, and is the replacement of Gaea, who died due to a surprise Human nuke, the head gods ultimate weapons clashing, and a immense explosion of energy from the combined forces hitting her heart, incinerating it. Now Link is not just the God of Earth though, that is his original domain, he took the empty God of skies and God of Seas domains (The primordial versions. Though that ends as a tinkle effect to Titans Gods etc. Think of it as a successor thing.) taking over the world essentially. The thing is, he didn't do it for power, more so he could be the Planets representation and watch over all on the planet and over it. Now Link is a relativity new God, but he has all the domains left behind by the Gods and Goddesses that died in the great war. During this little time period, Link was overwhelmed by the sudden increase of management, forcing him to cut corners for a while be fore he realized he only wanted the Sky, Sea and Earth, his domains he gave 3 shits about.
He recreated the Shinto Parthenon to make sure that at lease the countries have a stable power source, watchers and to make his duties 3000 times lighter, letting him focus on the three domains he cared about. After creating them once more (Not with same personalities of course.) he slept, to regain his power used. To put the amount of power he used is like this, he lost about 50% of it trying to manage the domains from ALL pantheons he gained, and making sure everything went smoothly. He used 49% recreating the Shinto Pantheon, as it takes a lot of energy and power to create immortals of that power scale. He has also been doing it close to a million years if that. So after he created all of the Shinto Gods and Goddesses , He rested for 8 centuries, which in this time period, Kaguya rose and fell, The Sage of the Six Paths rose and fell, the Tailed beasts Rose and caused there normal mess, and the clan wars happened. The rise of the villages came when Link began to awoken. The awakening was made aware the earths energy started shifting to a higher degree, but the only ones who noticed were summons, and the First Hokage due to his Mokuton.
Eventually Link awoken before the first Great Shinobi war, and man was he PISSED. He gave the Shinto Parthenon one job, and they fuck it up. One fucking job, to make sure humanity and the domains they represent don't end up destroying one another, like humanity is now, ready for war against each other again. A few days later, after the war begins, Link enters the dimension the Parthenon calls home to find them playing strip poker with each other, which infuriated Link immensely.
"Can someone please explain to me WHAT THE FUCKING HELL YOU IDIOTIC SHITS ARE DOING!?" Link explodes in anger, and the gods and goddesses all jump, causing cards to fly everywhere and a few assests both male and female, to bounce a shit ton. They all look at the one that intruppted their game, and look pissed.
"And who the fuck are you to question what we gods due? A minor god? HA! You propably have the domain of minor crushes or something weak." Susanoo says arrogantly.
"Probably a minor god of Vegetables!" Amaterasu says with the same tone.
"Oh me? I am just the God of Earth, Sky,and Sea the CREATOR OF YOUR PARTHEON AND LIVES!" Link says with out a care in the world, as he is the world itself. The Shinto Partheon takes one look at him, and laughs.
"HA! YOU? THE GOD OF EARTH, SEA AND SKY? Our creator? HA. Right and pigs can fly!" Susanoo, pissing Link off a bit.
"Since you want to believe yourselves above everyone, including me, let me show you a fraction of my power in this form." Link says, as an aura appears around Link, Causing the entire palace to have trillions of cracks and fractures.
"Now, you were saying?" Link says with a less that true smile.
A/N: For those of you wondering, maybe 5 people, this is more of a place holder I don't know everything about Naruto, so I am changing it to MY version of it. Link is a semi OC. It is not Link from Legend of Zelda, more my own character. Also Cliffhanger of doom, but I really just wanted to lay down a foundation. Even if it is made out of socks.
