Naruto didn't have to take out his three prong kunais to give to his comrades as he usually did for mission, as a precautionary, when they started preparing for this mission, Naruto marked Beckendorf's and Percy's pocket with the seal for his father's jutsus incase either one of them was captured and unarmed.
Beckendorf led the way. They followed a narrow corridor to the service stairwell, just like they'd practice, but they froze when they heard noises above them.
"I don't care what your nose says!" snarled a half-human, half-dog voice—a telekhine. "The last time you smelled half-blood, it tuned out to be a meat loaf sandwich!"
"Meat loaf sandwiches are good!" a second voice snarled. "But this is half-blood scent, I swear. They are on board!"
"Bah, your brain isn't on board!"
They continued to argue, and Beckendorf pointed downstairs. They descended as quietly as they could. Two floors down, the voices of the Telkhines started to fade.
Finally, they came to a metal hatch. Beckendorf mouthed the words engine room.
It was locked, but that's where Naruto came in. As grandson of Hermes, Naruto inherit one of his abilities that he rarely blesses on his kids—much less grandkids—which was to manipulate the internal pins of a lock and unlocked it without breaking the lock itself. Naruto touched the lock and focus on the internal pins in the lock and manipulating them to twist and turn until the lock clicked open. And the beauty of it was that when they were done, they can just click the lock back in place and hopefully no one would think twice. Naruto even convince Beckendorf a pair of bolt cutters in case they need a little trickery.
Inside, a row of yellow turbines the size of grain silos churned and hummed. Pressure gauges and computer terminals lined the opposite wall. A telekhine was hunched over a console, but he was so involved with his work, he didn't notice them. He was about five feet tall, with sick black seal fur and stubby little feet. He had the head of a Doberman, but his clawed hands were almost human. He growled and muttered as he tapped his keyboard.
Naruto moved in quickly and slayed the Telkhine before he knew what hit him.
"One down," Beckendorf said. "About five thousand to go." He tossed both boys jars of thick green liquid known as Greek fire—one of the most dangerous magical substances in the world—as well as duct tape.
"Percy, slap that one on the console. Naruto come with me to get the turbines!"
They went to work. The room was hot and humid, but Naruto was blessed with heat resistance of Hestia, so he was fine, but Beckendorf and Percy were covered in sweat. Naruto summoned a few shadow clones to speed up time.
Sadly they were running out of time when they heard the pounding of feet on the metal steps—a lot of monsters from the sounds of it.
"How much longer?" Percy asked.
"Even with shadow clones too long." Beckendorf tapped his watch, which was their remote-control detonator. "I still have to wire the receiver and prime the charges. And unless Naruto can figure out how to do that himself, it will take ten minutes."
"I can tap into the blood of Athena in me to help," Naruto said. "It'll be a headache… but if I do that, how much time will it give us?"
"Five minutes," Beckendorf said.
"I'll distract them Naruto can go with you so he can jump you to me," Percy said. "Until then, see you later."
"Percy—"
"Wish me luck!" Percy said.
"Don't worry, Beckendorf. This is why we came up with a backup plan," Naruto said.
"Right," Beckendorf said. "Good luck."
Percy charged out the door.
Beckendorf and Naruto got to work finishing up their plans, and indeed Naruto started tapping into Athena's blood in him to guide his hands to get the wiring and setting right. Fortunately, it only causes a minor migraine as he knew what to do. This is exactly why Naruto was appointed to this mission. With the thievery skills Naruto inherit from Hermes and the wisdom he inherit from Athena through his parents, Naruto had abilities of both his aunts and uncles as well as combine abilities of the two that were useful for this mission.
It just a matter of mastering it, and hopefully I done just that, Naruto thought. And as much as I hate having to rely on the Fox's power, if I'm right, it might help with Kronos' limited power.
"Done!" Naruto said.
"Same here," Beckendorf said.
Just then, the sound of monsters coming had returned.
"Out of time!" Naruto said. "Time for Plan B."
Beckendorf nodded as Naruto made the hand sign. Transform!
Naruto a puff of smoke surrounded Naruto as Beckendorf ran off to divert the monsters. Naruto was now two inches tall as he hid in the turbines expecting monsters to show up, but just like with Percy, the sound of monsters coming faded away. Just to be safe, Naruto waited a few minutes before disappearing and reappearing in Beckendorf's pocket in a flash.
"Success, my lord," a familiar voice called. "We found the son of Hephaestus just as we were told."
Ethan Nakamura, Naruto thought.
He heard hands clapped and Naruto felt Beckendor being dragged forward.
"No!" Naruto heard Percy yelled.
"We found him amidships," one of the giants said, "trying to sneak to the engine room. Can we eat him now?"
"Soon." Naruto heard Kronos said. "What about Uzumaki! He was supposed to be with them."
"I didn't see him," Ethan said. "He probably ran off scared."
"I doubt it," a new voice said.
Sasuke, Naruto thought.
"If I know Naruto, he's probably hiding in Beckendorf's or Jackson's pocket."
"We already check this guy's pockets," the giant said.
"Check Jackson's pocket!" Kronos said.
Naruto heard scuffling but he knew they weren't going to find him. It looked like Naruto's wait came in handy after all.
"Now just to get out of here," Naruto said as he was about to jump him and Beckendorf. But at that moment Naruto froze as if time around him stopped.
No, not again! Naruto thought.
"Clever, I must admit!" Kronos said. "Uzumaki must have jumped into the other one's pocket. But in the end it won't matter, because it's over!"
No! Naruto thought. Fox, now or never. Give me strength to overcome Kronos!
Naruto felt a spark of power as red chakra seeped out of his body.
"What—NO! Our source said Naruto might of feared to use that power!" Kronos cried.
"Beckendorf time to go!" Naruto said.
Beckendorf moved around and Naruto knew it was time. At the same time, Naruto heard something like a bronze hitting something and Naruto got the feeling Percy threw his sword.
Naruto touch the seal on Beckendorf's pocket. I'm sure Beckendorf needs a time of recovery, so we'll stop by Ogygia before going back to camp, Naruto thought.
Just as there was a loud BOOM! From the ship exploding Naruto and Beckendorf disappeared in a flash.
…
Calypso was working on her garden when Beckendorf appeared in a flash just as he passed out.
"Uh hello?" Calypso responded.
"Calypso!" Naruto struggled out of Beckendorf's pocket and transform back to normal. "We just exploded the Princess Andromeda, and Beckendorf needs to recover."
"Right!" Calypso responded.
A/N: In case you guys haven't figure it out, I split the first chapter in half because of the fact Naruto isn't with Percy when he meets his divine step family along with Poseidon
