Chapter 24: The Final Attack and Chaotic Meeting
"Anko-Kaa-san?!" Naruto said in shock. There are many emotions he's feeling right now. Shock, happiness, and a little bit of betrayal. Why would Anko want to bring him back to that village? She knows how much he hates it there.
"Wait Naruto, this is the Anko you told us about?" asked Zoe with interest at the women. She heard stories of the woman, how she was the first person to care for Naruto. How she shares the same hate Naruto felt from the villagers. How she was his first sensei, his caretaker, and the mother he never had.
"Yes that is her." Naruto said in confirmation. He then turned to Anko "But why are you trying to bring me back to that village? You know i hate it there." Naruto asked Anko. The woman looks away from Naruto, seeing the betrayal in his eyes.
"I asked Tsunade to come on this mission." Anko said, finally looking at Naruto. "What, you didn't think that I didn't want to see you after all the years you were gone in the shithole of a village?" Naruto flinched at that. He didn't thought about how she would feel about his disappearance.
"Right. Sorry about that." Naruto apologized. But he is still tense, ready to fight her if he needs to. "Are you here to capture me kaa-san?"
Anko had a conflicted look on her face. "That was my order from Tsunade." At that, the demigods tense up. "But I don't think I can follow that order. I know how much you hate the village and I can see that you're happy with your friends. But there are other villages that will want to kill in many fucking ways and I don't want that to happen."
Naruto eyes soften and let his guard down a little. "That's not going to happen, kaa-san." Naruto said to her. "I got stronger during my disappearance and face things stronger than any regular nin in the elemental country. I also have friends on my side, who are as strong as any other shinobi. You don't need to worry about me."
He can see the conflict in her eyes. While she did hate the villagers for what they did to her and Naruto, she is still a loyal shinobi. And her mission is to capture Naruto and get back the others, even the pervert. Before she could say anything, explosive kunai were thrown at Naruto. Quickly, he deflected or dodged those kunais before they could blow.
"What the fuck?!" Naruto said in shock. Right then, ANBU appeared in front of Anko and behind the demigods. The demigods pulled out their weapons, with the ANBU doing the same.
"Hang on a minute?!" Anko exclaimed, summoning a snake and blocks the ANBU in front of her. "I told you that I would talk with Naruto!"
"We were ordered to capture Uzumaki Naruto no matter what." The leader said emotionlessly, causing Anko and Naruto to stiffen. "You were interfering with that plan and we cannot allow you to join the enemy."
'Root!' Anko and Naruto both thought angrily. Either Danzo interfered or Tsunade purposely sent the Root ANBU.
"Root ANBU." Naruto hissed venomously. "Guys, do not hold back. These ANBU will not negotiate and won't stay down. Kill them, if you can." Some of the demigods eyes' widen at that. Naruto is telling them to kill them? Many were hesitant to kill a person while Percy and Bianca felt sick in the stomach at the thought of killing someone else.
But they didn't have the chance to protest as the Root ANBU engaged at them. They demigods were startled, but they fought back.
While the demigods have the number, the Root has the skills. While that was happening Naruto took on the leader. Artemis stood at the side, knowing that she couldn't interfere, but out of nowhere a kunai was thrown at her and then she got involved.
Percy and Bianca teamed up with one of the ANBU. Annabeth, Luke, and Thalia are facing against two of them. Zoe and Phoebe are facing against two of them. And the rest of the demigod faced the rest of them.
The one Naruto is facing is using a sword, so he transform his kasia into a shield for the first time and grabbed his sword from his seal to fight. The Root's strikes aim to cripple him, but Naruto blocked every blow. The next strike caused the two to get in a sword hold. Something the ANBU planned.
"We have you now, Uzumaki." The root said emotionlessly. Naruto eyes widen and he can feel someone behind. He moved his shield hand to block, but it was too late.
Before the ANBU behind him can strike him down, bunches of snakes were launched at him, sending him to the ground. The man didn't scream as the snakes wrapped around him, breaking his bones and skull.
They froze in surprise, giving the Naruto the chance to push him back. Naruto turned to where the snakes were launch, to see his surrogate mother, smirking to him. Naruto smiles back. Looks like his mother is on his side.
The two of them got into fighting stances, side to side. Naruto with his sword while Anko in her taijutsu stance. The two Roots prepare themselves as well. They made first and charge at them, with Anko and Naruto meeting their charge.
Naruto and the leader met each other in sword combat. Naruto was on the offensive, with the leader on defense. Each slash Naruto made was block by the Root, though not easily. The leader slides under the next slash then got on his knees and swung his sword backwards, but Naruto blocked him before he could slice his leg off.
Meanwhile Anko is fighting the other Root, both using taijutsu since they couldn't use any nin or genjutsus. While the root was good, Anko was even better. Each move she made was unpredictable to the Root, letting him give her a few blows.
Percy was fighting one of the Roots with his sword while the emotionless man was using two kunai. Percy had to use all he'd learned and his powers in order to keep the man off of him. He really appreciated Naruto's short lessons now, when it comes to hand to hand combat. It also helps when Bianca is giving support, using the shadows to separate them in order for Percy to catch his breath. And her arrows to keep the man from making killing blows.
Thalia and Luke were using a spear and sword respectively, against the Roots' own kunais. Thalia uses her sparks in her spear to briefly paralyze them while Luke using his dirty tricks, but they couldn't get a hit on those two. Even with Annabeth helping them by attacking them in their blind spots, they dodge and block every one of their moves.
Zoe and Phoebe, meanwhile, are using their hunting knives. Their training from Artemis and their extra strength from Artemis's blessing helped them get into par with the two Roots. But they're not even close to defeating them.
Lastly, Artemis is facing three of them. They were five, but she killed the other two. She's using her hunting knives and giving the roots a fight for their lives.
While fighting the Root, Naruto wonder why the Root agents haven't killed anyone. As he can see, Danzo want the Roots to capture him. And the Roots would kill anyone who gets in their way, unless…
His eyes widen as he found out the man's plans and push the leader back before throwing a fireball to disintegrate him. "Artemis, summon carriages to get the demigods out of here! Don't let any of them be captured! Demigods, disengage! NOW!"
Artemis didn't question him, knowing that his instincts are usually right. "You heard him. Move!" Artemis ordered. They didn't get away from their fights with Naruto behind them. Zoe looked back and Naruto was about to be stabbed and yelled out "NARUTO, LOOK OUT!" He turned around and quickly threw a punch, but the Root jumped back. But that didn't help much.
'CRACK'
Everyone heard that and saw in front of Naruto's fist the air was cracking like it was made of glass. The Roots Anbu were pushed back and slammed on to rocks breaking their necks killing them instantly. They all looked at Naruto, in shock. Some were gapping, some had their mouths on the ground, some has their eyes widen, and some are doing all three. Naruto was also wide eyed at what he did.
But he wanted to test something. He reached for the air and grabbed and, to his amazement, he can actually feel himself grabbing the air. He let go and turn back to them. So he can grab or crack the air around him. Nice.
"Well, this is new." Naruto said to himself, with a wicked smile. "Going have to test this out soon." He turned to the others, all of which still looked shock.
"WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT?!" They all asked/shouted, even Zoe and Phoebe couldn't hold back. The only one who didn't shout was Artemis, though she is curious about that as well.
Naruto looked at them and said "I don't know. Maybe a mutation to my bloodline like what happened when I was fighting Atlas, but I will figure it out." He then got on the carriage that had Thalia, Zoe, Phoebe, Annabeth, Percy, Luke, and Bianca on it, with Artemis being the one to ride it. He looks at Anko, who is in front of the carriages.
"So what are you going to do kaa-san?" Naruto asked his surrogate mother. "The back-up you had is gone now and we both know that you can't face this many people. You only option is to join or leave." Anko furrowed her eyebrows, thinking of what she what to do. Finally, she came up with something.
"I'll go with you, but only to get the people you captured." Anko said to her son. "That was the other part of the mission. At the very least, I'll complete that and lady Tsunade won't ban me from my dangos for failing my mission to get you."
Naruto shook his head at that and smirked. "You and your dangos, kaa-san." Anko merely grin at that.
"Says the brat who visits Ichiraku's Ramen ten times a week." The woman shot back. She got on the carriage with Naruto and right when she did, Naruto hugged her tightly, startling her.
"Missed you kaa-san." Naruto whispered to her, smiling softly. Anko smiled back, a rare smile she showed only a few people, and hugged back.
"Missed you too Naruto-kun." Anko whispered back. As the two finished hugging, Artemis got her deers in flight, with the others following her lead.
Thalia yelped and quickly grabbed Naruto's arm, her fear of heights controlling her emotions. Naruto chuckled at that and let her hold her, knowing that she's not going to let go of her. Anko's motherly instincts came in and narrow her eyes at Thalia. She will need to keep an eye on her. Probably the rest of the girls as well, seeing the jealous stares a couple of them were giving Thalia.
Her eyes widen when she saw the Empire State Building, the most impressive thing she seen in this world, and even more when they went up high and travel in Olympus.
As the chariots landed, Anko was looking around in shock at what she was seeing. What in kami's name did she get herself into? When they got off the chariots they went to the council room with Artemis growing to her godly height.
All of the demigods went into the chamber room, with the former traitors having fear gnawing in their heart. They wonder if they made the right decision into coming back, as they remembered that Zeus is not the most forgiving person.
Artemis got to the door and opened it and walked in while everyone else waited. All of them were nervous of what's going to happen in the chamber. While they are waiting, Naruto decided to explain where they are at and what they are waiting for to Anko.
Anko was shocked as hell to say the least to find out that the one you see as a son is the child of a god and that there were a whole camp for them and the gods and goddesses of greek myth are REAL and she is about to meet them. Normally, she would've called bullshit on that if it was someone else, but Naruto wouldn't tell her this unless he was absolutely sure.
Anko put her hand to her head, shocked out of her mind. "Wow, I knew I would expect shocking things in this trip, but I was not expecting this. I am very surprised, but the funny thing is, I believe you." The other demigods are surprise as well. Most people wouldn't believe it at first, until they saw proof. This woman must trust Naruto a lot.
Finally, they got the signal from Artemis to come in and all the demigods, the two hunters, and the snake mistress went in the room. All of them saw the gods in their thirty feet tall form, most of them wearing modern clothing. Hephaestus, in certain eyes, is in his Minato form, wearing his shinobi outfit. Only a few see him in that form and one of them was Anko, making her eyes widen.
Most of the demigods, Bianca, Zoe, Annabeth, and Phoebe immediately bow down to the gods while other the rest didn't. Luke, Naruto, Percy, Anko, and Thalia are one of the few who didn't. The one thing the five have in common is that they go against tradition.
Zeus scowls at that. "Aren't you suppose be kneeling down to us? Especially the traitors and the leader of them?" Naruto merely gave him a hard stare.
"With all due respect, Lord Zeus, this is not medieval times." Naruto said, being careful with his words. "This is the twenty first century, where people don't need to bow down to others to show respect. That tradition was in the past."
Zeus was about to yell at the boy for his insolence, when Poseidon spoke. "He's not wrong brother. They do not need to bow in order to show respect to us. Beside, most of us are tired with seeing our children bow down to us." Most of the gods agreed to that, even Athena agreed to it.
Some of the gods and goddesses smile at their children, only to be met with glares or blank looks. Even though they join back, they haven't forgiven the gods for basically forgetting them.
Bianca felt a little uncomfortable, seeing her dad for the first time in her really long youth, but she attempted to give him a smile. Hades responded with a smile of his own.
"Hello Annabeth, it's good to see you again." Athena said pleasantly. That surprises some of the gods, thinking that she would've been formal with her children. But apparently, they were wrong.
"Wow, never thought I hear Athena say something with emotion in her voice." Poseidon teased, making the goddess scowl at him. He ignored it and smile at his own child. "It's good to see you Percy."
"You too dad." Percy said, happy to see his dad a second time.
Naruto looked at Poseidon and said "That would kind of be my doing." talking about Athena being informal, scratching the back of his head. Then looked toward his father and said "Hey dad, good to see you after so long. This is Anko, my surrogate mother." He said, pushing Anko forward. "She taught me the things I needed to know to survive. Also took care of me and become my guardian."
Anko glared at him for putting her on the spot, which he responded with a cheeky grin. She decided to get at him for this later and look nervously up to Naruto's father, contrasting from her confident and sadistic personality. "H-h-h-hello sir well as Naruto said is true but I had to earn the respect."
Hephaestus gives Anko a warm smile and said "Thank you for being there for my son and raising him to be a fine young man. If he sees you as a mother, well, then any friend of my son is a friend of mine." Hearing him say that, Anko smiles at him, relieved.
"Now, that the introductions are done." Dionysus said, drinking his 'diet coke'. "Can we discuss all of the topics we have? Like with the bane of Olympus, the prophecy, what to do with the these demi-"
"Thank you, Dionysus, we get it." Athena interrupted the wine god. "The first topic we will discuss is what to do with the bane of Olympus." Poseidon snaps his finger and a tub with the sea serpent in it appeared.
"Now, that Ophiotaurus is in our hand, we are to ensure that the titans can't use it against us." Poseidon, but a few others disagree.
"We should kill it just to make sure it doesn't endanger us." Zeus proclaimed, with Ares immediately agreeing. If you say anything to do with the word destroy, he would immediately agree with it. Percy was about to yell out in protest, when Naruto quickly spoke in order to keep Squid Head's life in check.
"You will make a huge mistake if you do that, Zeus." Naruto warned, getting narrow eyes from the king of the god. "If you do that, it will reform and the enemies will go for it again. Kill it and you give the enemies another chance." The smarter gods, Athena, Hephaestus, Hades, and Artemis to count, see his point. It will be a bigger risk to kill it, since it will end up in tartarus, where any monster could bring it to Kronos.
Zeus, however, didn't see it that way. "Then what are we supposed to with it? Keep it?"
"It, it's a HE." Naruto interjected with a frown. "And why not? The little guy can be a good pet. Dad can easily build a tank, with the help of Poseidon."
"Why not bring it to dad's kingdom?" Percy asked. Everyone looks at him like an idiot except Anko.
"Jackson, I know you read at least a little bit of greek mythology." Naruto sighed in frustration. "And you should know that Zeus wouldn't allow his brother, either of his brothers, to keep the bane of Olympus with them." He didn't add that it was because he was overly paranoid, more so than anyone in this world. He may not respect Zeus, but he is careful when talking in front of the man, even if he doesn't show him the respect Zeus wants.
"So it's decided." Hera said. "The Ophiotaurus will be in Olympus, under the watchful eyes of the Olympians." Everyone nodded in agreement.
"Then as King of Olympus, I decree that the Ophiotaurus shall be kept on Olympus under guard so that he won't be used against the gods!" Zeus declared. The sky rumbled with the under, getting nearly everyone to roll their eyes at his theatrics. Why isn't he called the god of theater?
Percy pumped his fist in victory while the others smile at the fact that the sea serpent get to live. He doesn't deserve to get killed for the powers he didn't ask for.
"Now the next order of business. What's to be done with the three illegal children?" Zeus said, getting Thalia, Percy, and Bianca to freeze. Naruto eyes widen before scowling. He didn't think about Zeus bringing that up. He thought he would skip it, considering that one of the children is his OWN daughter.
"I say we kill them!" Ares growled, glaring at Percy. Percy matched with the glare of his own.
"I disagree, considering that it's one of my daughters." Hades clipped, glaring at Ares. Bianca felt some relief and warmth that her dad is defending her.
"I agree with my brother on that one." Poseidon piped in. "I'm not going to have my son killed because of paranoia."
"You don't have a say in it you two!" Zeus declared, getting glares from the two. "We three have bias opinions on the matter, so we don't have a vote on it!" The two of them scowl at that.
"Okay, we'll put a vote on it!" Zeus declared. "If you agree to have them killed, raise your hand." Only Ares raised his hand at that. "Whoever wants them to live, raise your hand." Hephaestus, Hermes, Apollo, Aphrodite, Artemis, Demeter, and Athena raised their hand. Dionysus didn't vote, because he didn't really care about what happen with the demigods. And Hera didn't vote, since she doesn't want any conflict with Naruto, but couldn't stomach to vote for letting a child of herhusband to live. Not because she loves Zeus, but because she's the goddess of marriage.
"So it's settled!" Zeus proclaimed. "The three demigods will live and we will see what will happen in the future." He was about to get on to the next topic, when Naruto interrupted.
"Lord Zeus I don't think Bianca, Thalia, and Nico will be the prophecy child." Naruto said. Zeus frown, silently asking him to explain so Naruto did. "Bianca and Nico are too old to become the prophetic children. And before you tell me your age, I want to remind you that the two of them been in the casino ever since the 1930s. So technically, they're at least seventy in years, though not physically or mentally."
The gods and goddesses consider his argument. He's got a good point. Since they're past that age because of the lotus casino, technically, they're not part of the prophecy. "But what about Thalia Grace?" Demeter asked.
Naruto responded immediately. "Did you forget how old she is now?" The immortal's eyes widen. They forgot that she was twenty-two now. But how come she didn't meet the prophecy at the time she turned seventeen?
Naruto continued. "She would've been part of the prophecy ten years ago, but was stopped when I gave her something. Technically, she isn't a demigod anymore. Most of her godly blood and DNA is gone, replace with my own chakra." The immortals were shocked to say to the least. Percy was shock as well. So that what Thalia meant when she said that Naruto saved her from the prophecy.
"Well, damn." Hermes said with whistle. "That was clever. Stopping her from being in the prophecy by giving her your blood. Are you sure you're not my son?" Naruto grin cheekily at the thief.
"Sorry, Hermes, but I'm a hundred percent Hephaestus son." Naruto said. "Maybe in another dimension, I might be your son." Hermes sulked at that.
"Okay, now on the next order of business." Zeus said. He then glared at the group of demigods, causing them to stiffen. "The traitors who would dare side with the titans!"
"Let him have a second chance!" Hermes immediately responded. "They are our children here!"
"We should kill them, right here and then." Ares said with a savage. The children of Ares glared at their father.
One of the braver ones spoke up. "Of course! Why would our own idiot of a father care about the fact that he's going to kill one of his own? I'm surprise not one of our mothers tried to castrate him!" Ares turned red at that.
"I think we should kill them as well." Athena said, trying not to flinch at the glares of her children. "They are a risk to the camp and to us. What make us to say that they won't attack us?"
Naruto looks at Athena with a frown. "Then what about the info of future attacks that the enemies are planning? That info would save us so much trouble Athena." Naruto countered "Plus you're better than that war loving warmonger idiot!" Athena sighs knowing Naruto is right about that.
Ares growled and was tempted to chop this guy in half. Not only because of the insult, but also because of the fact that he's suspect that he was the reason Dite broke up with him. He's already beginning to have blue balls. Ares summons his axe and rushed at Naruto, who pull one arm across his chest and made a fist. When Ares was close and swung the ax and Naruto swung his fist and something happened that shocks the gods and goddesses, meeting the ax was the cracking the air.
Naruto added more power to it and the ax shattered and Ares was shocked. Naruto used it to his advantage and grabs Ares head that has his helmet on. Naruto slams Ares head into the ground and clear white bubble forms and Naruto pushes hard destroying the helmet and then throws Ares away. When he lands Ares is out cold with blood running down his face.
Naruto turned to the other gods and goddesses, his anger controlling his better judgment once again. "Anyone else want to test me because I have one other target that I need to deal with."
All of them were shock at what they saw. I mean, they did see it during the fight, but to see that power up close? Athena gained up the courage to ask. "Who's the other target?"
Naruto turns to Apollo, with red fiery anger in his eyes. His muscles expand again like in the fight with Atlas, the veins are pure red destroying his shirt. Naruto jumps at Apollo. He punches the air again.
'CRACK'
The air in front of the fist begins to crack shattering the chest plate armor pushing Apollo back slamming against the wall knocking him out. "That was for manipulating Percy to attack and kill me on the quest you idiot." Naruto moves away and unseals a new shirt and puts it on.
Artemis heard what Naruto said. And from what the others can see, she is not happy. Not at all. "I'm going to talk to my twin brother after this." She muttered darkly. The males shiver at the dark voice that promised pain.
Naruto cleared his throat, getting the others to look at him. "Why not put them under my care? I'll give the suitable punishment and make sure none of them are spies. If they cause harm to the camp or Olympus in any way, I'll be held responsible for what they do." The demigods were shock that Naruto would do that, especially the traitors. They knew Naruto would defend them from the gods, but they didn't think he would take all responsibility for what they do.
Zeus didn't like the thought of Naruto keeping an eye on them. "How can we trust you?" Zeus demanded to him. "You are a descendant of a Titan, more specifically Atlas. You think we can trust you to watch these traitors?"
"Do you really want to deal with what two of your sons had to deal with?" Naruto asked raising an eyebrow "Plus you weren't the only one to think that I was a spy. I am only going to say this once. I HATE ATLAS!" He yelled the last part to Zeus.
Zeus was about to argue, but Hephaestus defended Naruto. "Naruto has been helping us for years Zeus. He's my son and a champion of Athena. Plus, he loves everyone in the camp, see them as family. Do you actually think he would betray us?"
"And did you forget that you are a son of Kronos, father?" Athena piped in. "All of us Olympians have titan blood in us, so your point is mute." Zeus turned very red at that, that his word used back at him. But he managed to calm down.
"Fine, then." Zeus grumbled. "Those who want Naruto to be responsible for the traitors, raise your hand?" Demeter, Hermes, Poseidon, Hephaestus, Athena, and Artemis raised their hands. "Those who oppose?" No one else raise their hand. Ares might've, but he's knocked out at the moment.
"Very well then." Zeus said, not happy about it. "The traitors will be under Naruto's watch. If they do one thing against us, Naruto will be punished instead of them." Naruto gulped a little at that. He hoped that none of them would cause trouble or he will give them hell.
"And now that last topic." Zeus declared. "Naruto's new power." Now it's Naruto turn to freeze up now. He had a bad feeling about that. "But first, wake up Apollo and Ares for the meeting."
Artemis and Athena did so, being one of the few Olympians to have medical knowledge, though not as good as their knocked out brother. With a little bit of nectar and a smack on the cheeks for both them, the two of them woke up.
"Who hit me?" Ares asked groggily, his head spinning. "Whoever did will face my shotgun!" Naruto whistles innocently, making some of the others snicker.
"Get up you two!" Zeus said/demanded. "We are going to discuss Naruto's powers." When the two of them got back to their seat, Zeus stared Naruto down. "Now tell me, what was that?"
Naruto rolls his eyes at Zeus attempt of intimidation. He faced the villagers, his sensei and mother, an s-rank nin who has a giant blade, a sand demon (which is part primordial), a crazy art bomber, a crazy puppeteer, and recently, his ancestor Atlas, so now all the fear in his body is either locked up or gone from his system.
"It's a bloodline from a clan that is mostly gone. The Uzumaki clan" Naruto said. "They are known for having enhanced stamina, strength that could outmatch ten pro-wrestlers, and are masters of sealing techniques. It took three great villages in order to take them down. But they took so many down with them; that about a quarter of the enemy was left. A few of us remain, in hiding, and in other villages or countries. But you are looking at the Heir of the clan."
Most of the people of the room are very shocked about that. The only ones who weren't, were Athena, Hephaestus, and Artemis, since they studied up on the elemental countries' history or been told about it to Naruto.
"I heard about that. The Cloud, Rock, and Mist, three out of five great hidden villages, fought the Uzumaki and barely won." Athena informed them, shocking everyone even more. "Being the last heir, there is a law that the last of clan the male must marry more than one wife in order to replenish those he lost." Athena continued. Naruto grumbled under his breath about that.
"And I really hate that law." Naruto mumbled out, though some of the women feel differently about that. "I don't want to be told who to marry. I don't marry for power, fame, or wealth. I would rather marry for love. I want to get to know my future wife because I think if i go back to that hellhole that I was born in, I am going to be used as a stud to breed. Love is what i want in a marriage." Naruto sighs after saying that. Some women that heard that perked up, wanting to be with Naruto.
Zeus narrows his eyes at him. "But what was that power you show? You didn't explain how you cracked my domain." Naruto sighs in frustration, wanting to skip that part of the conversation, but he knew Zeus isn't going to let go.
"Well. I only have one theory, and that is my bloodline mutated." Naruto says to Zeus. "How I did it is a mystery to me as well but I think there is more to this new power that I have to see. You saw what I can do and the new form right?" Zeus nods "Well that form is just new to me but it is not easy to explain. I have to explore this power first because I'm curious about this power as well."
"That power should be locked up!" Zeus responded immediately. "No mere demigod should have such ability!" Naruto narrows his eyes at him. Then he smiles evilly at him and everyone shivers at the smile.
"I think i found a way to test this out." While he said that he grabbed the air and pulled. Nothing happened, confusing them, then, they heard a noise. They all looked outside and they were shocked.
The ground was rippling. It shocked everyone half to death to see. Some roads were destroyed.
"HOLY MOTHER OF ZEUS!" screamed Aphrodite in fear. Naruto let go and the ground returned to normal but he looked at Zeus with red eyes.
"I don't like to be controlled. I HAVE HAD ENOUGH OF THAT IN MY CHILDHOOD IN THAT HELLHOLE OF A VILLAGE!" Naruto said, yelling the second part. "So choose your next words carefully because you don't want me as an enemy."
Zeus felt both fear and anger. How dare that boy threaten him! He is the king of the gods, the ruler of Olympus. He can turn this boy into dust if he wants to. He was about to do just that when he saw the glares of most of the gods, the strongest being Hephaestus. Zeus gritted his teeth. Despite his desire to kill the boy, he does not want to be enemies of most of this council. So he stayed quiet.
There was an awkward silence. Finally, Athena cleared her throat. "Okay, so this is our final discussion. Naruto will study more about his new power and we the Olympians, won't interfere with his studies in any way." She gave her father a pointed look at that. "Now, all the demigods are dismissed."
All the demigods let out breaths of relief, including Naruto. All of them got out of this meeting with their heads still attached. All of them exits the council door, with Naruto at the front.
Soon, there was a party at Olympus. It was fun for many of them, though Naruto was real uncomfortable with the advances from the nymphs. Whenever he was away from his friends, a nymph would always ask for alone time with him or for a dance. Luckily, although strangely, his female friends would always chase them away before Naruto could respond, Anko, Thalia, and Zoe mainly the ones do it.
He mainly danced with Annabeth, Thalia, Bianca, and most surprisingly, Zoe. Though he did force her to dance, telling her to have fun and it's just two friends dancing. He never noticed that each of the females was glaring at each other.
Though the embarrassing situation was when Khione join in. When he first saw her in the party, he paled a bit. She made several advances and obvious flirts, causing him to turn tomato red. When she kissed him on the cheek, Percy, Grover, and a couple of nymphs and minor gods to hold back Thallia, Anko, and Zoe. Artemis, Athena, Annabeth, and Bianca, meanwhile, are glaring at Khione as she disappeared in the ice.
The girls made sure no other nymph or minor god would be near Naruto after that.
After that Poseidon pulls Naruto aside to somewhere quiet and when they get there Naruto sees Hestia and his father. "What is up?"
"Naruto you asked the three of us to help look for the biju in our domain." Naruto nods at that. "Well we found four of them Hestia found the two tails, your father found the four tails and I found the three and eight tails." Naruto's eyes light up and Poseidon asks "Did you find any?"
"Yeah I found the nine tails. Please, give them to me." The three pulled out the four canisters and Naruto seals them away. "Now we only have four left. Remember you can't let Zeus know about this. He would throw a hissy fit." The three nodded in agreement. "Thank you for your help."
"You're welcome Naruto." said Hestia, with her signature comforting smile. "Hope you can find all of them." Suddenly, they heard a scream of pain and they all know that the scream came from Apollo. Sounds like Artemis is chatting with him.
"Do you think he'll recover?" Poseidon asked them. They heard another scream of pain and they all agree that Apollo probably won't recover for a while. That brought a smile to all of them, even Hestia. She doesn't like the fact Apollo used a boy to try and kill Naruto.
(Camp Half-Blood)
The demigods, the hunters, Anko, and Artemis returned to Camp Half-Blood. They were met with cheers, with Medalis hugging the life out of Naruto. Inside, she's very nervous of how Naruto will take it that she lost his belt. Before Percy could go train he felt a hand on his shoulder when he turned around to see a very scary Naruto. "Where do you think you are going?" Naruto asked, his voice sounding nearly demonic.
"I-I-I'm going to train." Percy stuttered, scared half to death. "Oh no you don't you are going to the council room to be punished with the others for sneaking out and making my little sister worry herself about my belt vanishing." Medalis looked at Percy with anger.
"You took the belt?!" Yelled an angry Medalis. Percy gulped, silently hoping his father would help him out of this.
Naruto knew what he was thinking. "Jackson your father will not help you. So you're punishment along with the ones who came back from the titans is to be decided by the council and I would like a hunter there as well. Council meeting in Five minutes."
Percy, Luke, and the other demigods were incredibly nervous. They all knew that Naruto will give them hell for what they did.
(Council Room)
The leader of the cabins, Chiron, Anko, Artemis, and the hunters are all in the room, along with Luke as well as the ones who were in the quest.
"First off, I would like to congratulate the group that saved Artemis." Chiron said to them. "Without you, we would've already been at war with the titans." The group smile at each other. They are glad they delayed the war, enough that they could prepare themselves for battle. "And secondly, I would like to discuss the punishments for many of our demigods as well as the release of our prisoners."
Luke and Percy and the others who left pale a little once again at that, seeing the stern look Chiron gave them. "Percy, you went into a quest you weren't chosen in, again, and stolen a possession of Hephaestus. The punishment will scrubbing the toilets with a toothbrush, cleaning the Pegasus stalls, extra training with Naruto, and also, with a call from Sally, some tutoring with Naruto as well."
THUMP
Everyone turn to see Percy on the ground, with swirls in his eyes. The Stolls felt some sympathy for Percy, having the punishment of cleaning the Pegasus stalls and cleaning toilets once or twice. Okay, many times. Then Chiron turned to the traitors, making them stiffen at his look.
"Demigods, for siding with the titans for two years, you are going to be staying at the dungeon for a bit, with Cally handling you." All of them paled. They all heard of Cally's reputation with torturing. "You'll be staying there for at least three months; you'll do every single chore in this camp along with Naruto's special training." They paled even more at that.
"And now to the last topic, the shinobi we captured." Chiron said. Dionysus, who was away from the demigods, snapped his finger and the shinobi and kunoichi appeared in the room, chains tied around their wrists.
Anko, who was with Yugao, Kurenai and Hana and her dogs, think that they have seen better days. Jiraiya is the one who looks the worst out of three of the teams, crumpled and beaten. The guys wince at that while the girls and Naruto smiled with glee.
"They are relatively unharmed, except for the toad sage." Chiron informed. "They don't have any fatal injuries or ones that would cripple them." Anko nodded.
"That's good. As for Jiraiya, don't worry about it." Anko assured. "Every woman that met the man wanted to castrate him and beaten him down, but somehow, he always get back up."
"That's right!" Jiraiya suddenly said, jumping back, like he hadn't been tortured for days. "And all that time in there got me time to think of what to write for my research! It should do well with all the other research I did when I forced Naruto into that brothel! Those ladies had a fun time with him, they didn't even ask for pay!" When he finished saying that, Naruto was in front of his with his fist out and the air cracking, pushing Jiraiya back slamming him into the wall, knocking him out with blood coming out of his head.
Every woman looks at Naruto who is back in his seat giving. Naruto looks at Artemis and her hunters and said "Do whatever painful thing to him."
"THANK YOU!" Artemis and the hunters yelled in glee. They dragged the unconscious Jiraiya, whose scream was muffled by the many hunters.
"...Okay, moving on." Chiron finally said. "You can have them back, IF, you swear that they won't attack us again from now on and stop trying to capture Naruto." The shinobi look down shamefully at that.
Anko furrowed her eyebrows. "I'll have to talk about with Lady Tsunade, but I think the terms are doable. I can't promise anything with the other villages or any Root ANBU." Chiron was confused about the Root ANBU, but Naruto told him that he will tell him later.
"I'm glad we have an accord then." Chiron said. "You may leave with the prisoners." With that, the chains on the leaf nins were gone. Before they were gone though, Anko hugs Naruto tightly.
"I'll miss you sochi." Anko whispered to her surrogate son. Naruto smile and hug back.
"I'll miss you too kaa-san." Naruto whispered back. With that, Anko disappeared along with the other nins. Even Jiraiya, after the hunters were finish with him
After that, the former traitors went with Cally to the prison, fear eating them up. Her laughing gleefully doesn't help any matters.
"Good luck Luke!" Naruto called out to his friend. "You're going to need it!" Luke merely gulps. He feels that he's going to regret that stupid decision of joining the titans the minute he gets in that prison.
"Alright the rest of you, get training! And get your brothers and sisters, now!" Naruto commanded the council. They all nodded immediately and they quickly went to get their siblings. Naruto created a couple of clones to help the other train. He even created a clone for Bianca, since he needed to train with his powers.
An hour later, everyone was training. As the others were training, Naruto was on the sea water, practicing using his new powers. Learning how much power to put into the swing and in his new form which he calls devastation form. "This is going to be interesting."
He knew that he needs to learn quickly. He has a bad feeling that a lot of things are going to happen over the years. Templars, the Akatsuki, the other villages aiming for him, Titans, and finding the other biju. He hoped the others are prepared for everything in time. They are going to need all the training he could give him.
He's not going to lose his family to anyone.
