August 15th 2009:

The night-sky was brightened by the golden glow of an indiscernible outline within the air. Naruto Uzumaki hovered onto the top of a somewhat large truck and focused his luminous gaze on his foe.

Atlas remained in the cloak of his divine form and released pulses of unnatural power from every pore of his body. Flying across the city, Naruto glanced downwards. Atlas followed him at an inhuman speed.

Naruto twirled around mid-air and clasped his calloused hands. Chakra-arms extended out from his shoulders, gathering molecules of purple chakra onto their golden palms. "Tailed-Beast-Bomb-Barrage!"

Slamming all of these variations of the Tailed-Beast-Bomb into Atlas, Naruto let loose a grunt of concentration. Atlas raised his fore-arms, walking through the orbs of potent chakra in a pained gait.

"It's his divine form!" Naruto gritted his teeth to himself in contemplation. "It's letting him heal faster than I can damage him!"

"I'm kinda impressed!" Naruto had a small smirk on his whiskered features. "Most people would have been annihilated by that."

Atlas stared at his disintegrated arms and chuckled. "I agree! Without the regeneration of my divine form, you would have beaten me."

Naruto hovered into Atlas and tackled him into a sky-scraper. They rolled across the ground, flicking multiple punches and kicks into each other. Nature energy drove itself into Atlas and knocked him back.

"An invisible punch?" Atlas' thoughts were confused. "This monstrous boy possesses a plethora of diverse abilities! He really is powerful!"

Grabbing Atlas by the neck and hurtling him into numerous bill-boards, Naruto body-flickered at the titan of endurance until a merciless punch imprinted itself into his nose. He crashed into a random roof-top.

Naruto climbed to his feet and jumped from roof-top to roof-top—Atlas was hot on his trail and rushed forward through the streets of the area. Atlas shouted in glee. "I wouldn't mind some hand-to-hand combat!"

A Shadow-Clone materialized itself in front of Atlas, kicking him upwards into the air. Bracing himself, Atlas glanced at the golden distortion of speed in the distance and grinned. "Bring it on!"

"Boil-Release: Unrivalled-Strength!" Kokuo's chakra filled Naruto's biceps and muscles. "This Taijutsu technique will throttle you!"

Embedding the nastiest of punches into Atlas' sternum, Naruto propelled him into the shards of a destroyed sky-scraper. A massive sonic-boom drifted into Naruto's ear-drums. The Uzumaki smirked.

Naruto settled himself down on the concrete—but was blindsided when an obsidian-coloured distortion bounded at him. Atlas drilled a ruthless punch straight through Naruto's stomach. "How about that?"

Kurama healed the ginormous hole in Naruto's stomach and restored his skin to a healthier state. Impressed, Atlas cart-wheeled backwards to create a modest amount of distance. "Incredible healing-factor!"

Sprinting towards Atlas, Naruto roundhouse kicked him in the hip and smacked his head into his solar-plexus. Ingraining his knee into Naruto's nose, Atlas watched in aggression as blood covered his face.

A chakra-enhanced punch found itself being slammed into Atlas: who was thrown into another perpetual number of bill-boards. Particles of lava amassed themselves on Naruto's hand. "Lava-Style: Rasenshuriken!"

Atlas saw the mass of lava-imbued chakra being tossed at him. Grinning in psychotic excitement, he pushed his knuckles into the Rasenshuriken. This created an explosion of heat and divine power.

Glancing at his destroyed arm, Atlas rolled his shoulder and regenerated it within an interval of three seconds. Naruto crossed the distance between them, axe-kicking the titan right in the chin.

Whirling himself around to face Naruto, Atlas gripped onto the top of his head and hurtled the Uzumaki across New-York-City. Naruto felt his entire body fly through countless buildings. "This is kinda fun!"

Atlas approached Naruto in an untraceable blur of superhuman movement and landed next to him. Obsidian eyes gandered into golden ones. Naruto laughed. "Why the hell are you stopping now?!"

Leo Valdez was seated down on a wooden-chair in the area where all of the tents for Camp Half-Blood had been set up. A bag of popcorn rested on his lap. Sun-glasses were planted down onto his face.

Another powerful shock-wave and sonic-boom rattled the ground—but the Hecate-Cabin's crimson barricades protected him. Munching on his delectable popcorn, Leo mumbled. "Look at all that destruction!"

Charles Beckendorf stood beside his half-brother and gave him a troubled glance. For the briefest of moments, Leo would shudder in unadulterated pain from his bandaged wounds. He sighed a little.

However, Charles was in awe at the sight of Naruto's true power. Naruto was a golden-eyed demon as he tackled Atlas into an unoccupied sky-scraper for the umpteenth time. "Amazing…"

Travis and Connor Stoll had also seated themselves down on wood-constructed chairs. Their eyes were wide in raw shock. "I didn't expect that blond fellow to be this strong! He's fighting a damn titan!"

Most of the monsters had been defeated for the time being. Everyone—minus a few more of the battle-thirsty campers—were taking a break before they had to return to fighting more monsters.

The meanest of upper-cuts launched itself into Atlas' jaw. A ruthless kick embedded itself onto Naruto's chest. Naruto clenched a fist, grinning. Atlas laughed in pure joy, conjuring a golden spear.

Cleaving his knuckles through the spear, Naruto roundhouse kicked the temple of Atlas' head and leaped into the air. Head twisted at an awkward angle, Atlas healed his neck and jumped into the sky.

Percy Jackson was slumped against a cracked wall in exhaustion. An amused Kronos stepped in front of him and tilted his head. Breathing out in fatigue, Percy gazed into the pitiless eyes of his one enemy.

A Time-Slice slashed itself at Percy's neck and tickled his flesh. Unharmed, Percy wrenched himself out from the hole in the wall. Kronos scoffed, kneeing his face. The child of the ocean slouched down once more.

"Pathetic!" Kronos crouched down and punched Percy's jaw several times in blatant mockery. "Is this all you could offer me, demi-god?!"

"I suppose the Curse-Of-Achilles has caught up to your stamina." Kronos scowled. "I refuse to accept this outcome, Percy Jackson!"

Annoyance was evident in the demi-god's tired voice. "Who the hell cares about what you want?" He smirked. "Stop throwing a tantrum."

Punching Percy in the jaw for the tenth time, Kronos clicked his teeth. "I thought you would provide me an entertaining challenge!"

Percy slanted his head, frustrated. "That's all you want, isn't it? A challenge? You don't give a crap about all of the people you killed!"

"You don't understand my intentions at all!" Kronos released a loud laugh of amusement. "I live for my pleasure! I live for myself!"

Straining himself and grunting in exhaustion, Percy pulled a ball-point pen out from his pocket. This ball-point pen extended itself into Percy's most trusted blade. Kronos took a step backwards.

The titan of time clapped his pale hands in approval. "Perfect, Percy Jackson! Get out of that pathetic stupor and battle me to the death."

(-)

Annabeth Chase and Luke Castellan jumped from car to car. Multiple versions of the Condensed-Cube appeared above Annabeth—but she destroyed them without an ounce of visible difficulty or trouble.

Deep layers of cracks formed beneath Annabeth's feet before she propelled herself into Luke and tackled him into a random fence. The two of them flipped into the middle of an empty parking-lot.

Luke had a malicious smile plastered on his handsome features. "Everything has aligned for me! At last! Can you feel it, Annabeth?!"

Annabeth noticed how Luke pointed a coarse finger into the distance. Glancing at an exhilarated Naruto and blood-lusted Atlas, she raised a bored eye-brow. "You mean Mr. Blond throttling your dearest friend?"

"I understand why Naruto Uzumaki is stronger than me!" Luke pressed his calloused palms against his chest. "He is enlightened by the truth!"

Annabeth was baffled and rather unimpressed. "Naruto is nowhere close to being enlightened. Though, I won't deny that Mr. Blond is powerful."

Mana coalesced onto Luke's hand and transmuted itself into a compressed cube. "You understand nothing about this world!"

"I understand nothing?!" Annabeth shouted, enraged. "I'm not the one who's working for the lord of time and murdering fellow demi-gods!"

Naruto gripped onto Atlas' ankle, performed an athletic somersault mid-air, and bashed the titan of endurance into the concrete. Splinters of stone crashed into different areas spread across the city.

Emerging from the deepest of craters imaginable, Atlas rolled himself into Naruto and slammed him into a wall close to where Luke stood. Bright irises opened and glanced at the two individuals for a second.

Dragging himself out from the wall and ascending into the air, Naruto gave Annabeth and Luke a casual peace-sign before roundhouse kicking Atlas' spears into his sternum. Annabeth concentrated.

Luke closed his blue eyes and garnered all of the mana within himself. Calling for the last remains of her stamina, a somewhat tired Annabeth grunted. The son of Hermes opened his luminous eyes in excitement.

The Condensed-Layer spell wrapped around both of their bodies had been enhanced to an unnatural extent. Annabeth adjusted her gauntlets, bent her knees, and blurred forward. Luke vanished.

(-)

Kronos had the maddest grin of pleasure strewn across his pale visage once Percy had drilled a water-enhanced punch into his face. Deflecting a vicious slash from Riptide, Kronos tilted his head.

Percy gritted his teeth in exertion, swung Riptide forward, and grunted. Kronos' neck was touched by the end of the blade—but remained unharmed. Kronos widened his insane grin. "Not enough, demi-god!"

An upper-cut propelled Percy upwards and slammed him into the door of a balcony to a damaged apartment-complex. Climbing to his feet and groaning, Percy curled his fingers around his powerful weapon.

"My body is reaching its damn limits!" Percy shouted to himself in his mind. Irritation laced his thoughts. "I'm losing this battle right now."

Descending onto the streets of the enormous city, Percy broke out into a sprint and unleashed a ruthless slash upon Kronos: who slapped the tip of Riptide to the left. A kick was pushed into Percy's exposed jaw.

A web of cracks was produced on the wall once Percy collided against it. Exhaustion adorned his face. Emerald-hued irises glared at the titan of time. "I can't lose now…I won't let Luke or Kronos win."

"Annabeth is fighting Luke. Naruto is fighting Atlas. My friends are fighting those other monsters and soldiers of Kronos' army!"

"I will prove Luke wrong." Percy murmured, merciless determination seeping into his righteous voice. "We are not cut from the same cloth."

Kronos approached Percy and ignored his endless mumbles. Twisting his lips into the most delirious of grins, Kronos chuckled. "Even to the end, you heroes never cease to amaze me! Bravo, Percy Jackson!"

Percy sprang up to his feet, head-butting Kronos into the back of a ginormous truck. Aiming his knee forward, the son of the seas drilled it into the very depths of Kronos' solar-plexus. "What happened to him?"

Water sprouted from the ground and coated itself around his hands. Percy's arms blurred in movement as his fists landed into Kronos' chest and face. "I see! His body is relying on adrenaline to operate!"

Green eyes glowed beneath the starlight before Percy smirked, grabbing Kronos' neck and twirling himself around. Annabeth sprinted into the area, propelling Luke into Kronos and hurtling them back.

Kronos and Luke rose to their feet. The son of Hermes cracked his neck while the titan of time rolled his muscled shoulders. Annabeth smiled. "I think it's about time the four of us end this war, huh?"

A malign laugh bubbled out from Kronos' lips. "It took me a little while! But I've fine-tuned my time manipulation to do this to you, Percy!"

Percy squinted his green eyes, unafraid of the baleful inflection within Kronos' tone. "To do what to me? I ain't scared of you."

Luke tackled Annabeth into the distance and they traded numerous blows. Shock-waves of mana filled the cold air. Kronos ignored them and focused on the son of the seas. "You will be."

Time rippled and Percy remained immobile—confident in his invulnerability. Kronos moved three fingers downwards. A Time-Slice was embedded into Percy's midsection. He was undamaged from it.

Kronos hummed to himself in fake disappointment and shrugged. "I was hoping that would do the trick—but I suppose I was wrong."

"What was he planning to do?" Percy groused in confusion, raising Riptide in Kronos' direction. "Whatever. I'll think about it later."

(-)

Naruto slammed an elbow into Atlas' knee before summoning a chakra-arm from his shoulder and punching the titan's jaw. Rolling down from the top of a sky-scraper, Atlas collided against a truck.

A destructive sonic-boom was produced and shattered the windows of all of the vehicles around Atlas. Gathering a humongous chunk of metal into his pale hand, Atlas tossed it straight at Naruto's chest.

Unleashing his chakra into the surface beneath his feet, Naruto cast the Earth-Style: Mud-Wall Jutsu. This rock-constructed barricade blocked off the huge chunk of metal aimed for his chest.

"I suppose it's about time I used more power." Atlas chuckled to himself in psychotic glee. "I hope you're prepared for this, Uzumaki!"

The night-sky above them rippled for the briefest of seconds. Every single cloud in the heavens split apart as an enormous spear emerged from no-where—this spear was large enough to flatten the whole city.

In an isolated and abandoned area—Percy and Kronos entered a clash of whose weapon was more powerful. Shadows filled Percy's gaze before he glanced at the sky. His mouth parted in shock.

"What is Atlas doing?!" Confusion flickered across Kronos' aureate irises. "That spear is capable of destroying this entire city!"

Even Annabeth and Luke paused in their tracks mid-battle to witness the ginormous spear that hovered over New-York-City. Sweat trailed down the son of Hermes' fore-head. "Does Atlas want to kill us all?!"

Annabeth clicked her teeth, perplexed and irritated. "That spear is large enough to kill everyone in every area. How cruel can he be?"

A gigantic chakra-arm ripped itself out from Naruto's shoulder and summoned molecules of lava onto its golden palm. Gandering at the spear above the city, Naruto shouted. "Lava-Style: Rasenshuriken!"

Teeth gritted in exertion and concentration, Naruto buried the Lava-Style: Rasenshuriken into Atlas' humongous spear. It detonated in an explosion of unmatched chakra and lava. Atlas laughed, elated.

Naruto had obliterated the gigantic spear. Annoyance evident in the iridescent pits of his sapphire eyes, Naruto glared at the titan of endurance. "You really think that's enough to stop me?"

"I think it's about time I got a little more serious." Naruto grouched to himself, touching his feet down on the ground. "Taijutsu time..."

Golden streaks of pure luminosity graced Atlas' vision. Thirty chakra-enhanced and Senjutsu-enhanced punches were pummelled into his abdomen. Ichor squirted itself out from his blood-thirsty lips.

Atlas smacked a knee at Naruto's face—but the Uzumaki caught his leg and threw him into the rubble of a destroyed grocery-store. Naruto watched particles of divine energy heal most of the titan's wounds.

An unparalleled roundhouse kick sank itself into the temple of Atlas' hand, propelling him upwards and into a gargantuan bill-board. Conjuring a Rasengan, Naruto waited for Atlas to attack.

Bellowing in vicious pleasure for violence, Atlas dove out from the bill-board until his body blurred forward. Surprised by his augmented speed, the Uzumaki flicked his Rasengan straight into Atlas' chin.

At the same time, however, Atlas had created a black claw of divine-energy around his hand and stabbed Naruto in the sternum. Both of these monstrous creatures spat out numerous globs of blood.

"You've underestimated my abilities." Atlas taunted Naruto, widening his battle-lusted eyes in delight. "Wouldn't you say so, Uzumaki?"

Naruto stuck his tongue out without a hint of shame or concern. "Do you not stop talking? I think I'm about to fall asleep because of you!"

They were engaged in a perpetual clash of punches, kicks, upper-cuts, head-buts, and blood. Landing the most ruthless of axe-kicks into Atlas' chin, Naruto hurtled him into the obsidian abyss of the sky.

Divine energy accumulated itself onto Atlas' palm. Atlas bounced against the wall of an undamaged sky-scraper and shot a palm-strike into Naruto's nose. A loud crack reverberated throughout the air.

"That should have wounded his skull at least." Atlas shook the blood coated onto his fist down into the streets. "What shall he do now?"

Motes of yellow chakra adorned Naruto's head and healed his shattered skull in mere minutes. Atlas was rather impressed. "I suppose I underestimated how fast his healing-factor works."

"Lord Kronos is weakened from being in a mortal body." Atlas smirked. "But Percy Jackson is matching his strength and speed in battle!"

Atlas' knee parried one of Naruto's punches. The Uzumaki kicked Atlas, elbowed his fore-head, head-butted his collar-bone, and punched his neck. Atlas' foot submerged itself into Naruto's face.

Naruto blocked the kick.

(-)

Annabeth and Luke had reached a stale-mate in their arduous battle. Knuckles imprinted into Luke's face, Annabeth pushed him back. A weakened orb of mana ingrained itself into Annabeth's stomach.

"My stamina is running out from overuse of the gauntlets." Annabeth huffed in exhaustion. "My divine side is keeping me going…"

Panting from the exertion of his reawakened mana, Luke grunted. "What the hell should I do? I'm getting tired from using my magic!"

"The Condensed-Layer around both of us has gotten weaker." Luke analyzed the situation in his head. "I have to restore my stamina!"

A brilliant idea crossed Luke's mind in that thought-filled moment. Dispelling his Condensed-Layer, the demi-god clasped his calloused hands. "I'll reverse-engineer the ability that Annabeth's gauntlets use!"

The gauntlets designed by Leo Valdez converted Annabeth's stamina into mana. Luke had recreated this ability—but in reverse. His mana transmuted itself into stamina to remove the exhaustion in his body.

Annabeth deduced this in a brief flash of intense contemplation. Shocked beyond measure, the daughter of wisdom murmured. "Luke really is a prodigy in the arts of mana. Maybe I underestimated him."

Luke appeared next to her in a distortion of incredible speed. Upper-cutting Annabeth into the balcony of an empty apartment-complex, Luke generated a number of magic-bullets.

"I'm lucky that my partial-invulnerability recharges my mana faster than normal." Luke's azure-coloured eyes glowed. "Annabeth won't be able to survive this."

Planting herself down onto the surface of the balcony, Annabeth sprinted through the opened door. Spotting a simple knife on the kitchen-counter, Annabeth grabbed it and imbued mana into its metal.

Leaping onto the roof-top and gazing into the crack of the opened door, Luke rolled backwards when he discerned a mana-enhanced knife being thrown at his fore-head. The knife clattered onto the floor.

Luke picked the knife up from the ground, detected the mana instilled into its metal, shrugged, and tossed it off of the balcony. A pair of gauntlets bull-dozed themselves into Luke's solar-plexus.

An agony-accentuated groan unbottled itself from Luke's trachea. Grabbing onto his torso, Luke conjured another batch of mana-constructed bullets and directed them towards Annabeth's eyes.

Annabeth reinforced her Condensed-Layer and felt the magic bullets bounce off of her body. Confused, Luke reapplied a layer of mana onto his hands. "I thought you had no stamina to turn into magic."

"I just had to take a little breather." Annabeth smirked in mockery, striking a shoulder against Luke's abdomen. "Sorry about the wait!"

Grinning at Annabeth without a sign of fear whatsoever, Luke slammed a merciless kick into her face while they fell down. A small bruise adorned Annabeth's right cheek. "I will crush you, Luke…"

"Good luck!" A delirious inflection decorated Luke's psychotic voice. "I doubt you'll be able to sustain that Condensed-Layer much longer!"

Luke was right—of course. Annabeth had gained the ability to cast magical-spells less than fifty-three hours ago. However, this proved she was a prodigy in the arts of mana herself. She grunted in reply.

They flipped downwards onto the ground before they charged forward. A mana-enhanced elbow bashed itself into a gauntlet-covered fist. Three sonic-booms were formed from their mana-based attacks.

A Condensed-Cube built itself onto Luke's coarse palm and glistened an ominous yellow at Annabeth: who braced herself as the spell was buried into her midsection. Her organs twisted and turned in pain.

Two distortions of pure movement blurred into the area. Percy ducked his head to ensure that Kronos' punch missed, struck a palm against his face, and embedded a back-kick into the titan in a mortal form.

Annabeth noticed Kronos, glanced at a bored Luke, and produced a familiar knife from her pockets. Azure eyes widened in irritation. "That's the knife Charles used to turn my full invulnerability partial!"

Kronos heard Luke's loud statement. He hummed. "A method that turns the full invincibility from the Curse-Of-Achilles partial?"

"I best not let these demi-gods use such a weapon on me." Kronos moved two fingers upwards. "I wonder who created that knife…"

A Time-Slice was directed at Annabeth's hand to cut it off from the wrist. Her natural senses—from being a demi-goddess—screamed at her. She dropped the knife, jumping backwards onto the top of a van.

The knife was shattered into tiny scraps of mana-improved metal from the power of the Time-Slice. Sweat trickled down Annabeth's face. "What on earth was that sensation that destroyed Charles' knife?"

Annabeth was blindsided as Kronos raced towards her in an obsidian outline of unmatched speed. Back-flipping onto the top of another van, she saw the lord of time crush the van she had been standing on.

"I intended to destroy you and that knife." Kronos smirked and intertwined his fingers into an odd symbol. "I commend your reflexes."

Luke stepped forward until he stood next to Kronos. Blood soaked his lips. "My lord, I thought you were planning on only fighting Percy."

"I want some more fun!" Kronos twisted the ruthless smirk on his pale features into a savage grin. "These two are impressive warriors!"

Percy and Annabeth convened in front of a random car, tensing their muscles for whatever Kronos planned. The titan of time laughed. "You two are good sources of entertainment for me! I'll use this technique."

Multiple streams of divine energy inundated the atmosphere. Compressing them into countless blades, Kronos launched these weapons forward. "A simple technique—but a powerful one."

Annabeth ingrained some more of her mana into her fists, flicking them through the blades at top speeds. Percy erected up his own blades of water, crashing them into the numerous ones Kronos had created.

"You've impressed me enough, I suppose." Kronos cast another anomalous hand-sign. "I think it's about time we end this battle!"

(-)

Naruto leaped onto a roof-top, clapped his aureate palms, stretched his hands out wide, and summoned a Planetary-Rasengan. Atlas kicked at the bottom of the roof-top's building, shaking its foundation.

Rolling off of the roof-top, Naruto flew downwards and slammed his Planetary-Rasengan into the titan of endurance. Atlas was consumed by four bursts of intense chakra. The ground beneath him cracked.

A golden spear stabbed itself out from the hurricane of chakra. Atlas held this weapon by its handle and slashed at Naruto. Producing a wind-enhanced Kunai from his sleeve, Naruto destroyed the spear.

Naruto squinted his golden eyes. "Can I just ask why you're so obsessed by the idea of battling? Do you not get bored of fighting?"

"I could never be bored by the concept of violence!" Atlas released an aggressive yell. "I live to serve Kronos and I live to battle strong foes!"

The Uzumaki launched his fist into Atlas and watched him raise his arms. Blocking off Naruto's powerful punch, Atlas dug his feet deep into the ground. "I will kill you to claim superiority over you, Uzumaki!"

Weapons appeared around Naruto out of nowhere. Jumping backwards, Naruto amassed chakra onto his palm. He hurled a Wind-Style: Rasenshuriken into the spears, blades, and daggers.

Atlas grabbed onto Naruto's head and smacked it against the concrete one-hundred times at unimaginable speeds. Blood gushed out from the gashes spread across Naruto's face and fore-head. Atlas smiled.

"His fast healing-factor is incredible." Atlas was smacked in the back of the head by a duplicate of his opponent. "That pesky clone ability!"

Rising to his feet and summoning two more of his clones, Naruto clenched his fists and crouched down into the stance of a wild boxer. His Shadow-Clones kicked Atlas into the air. Naruto punched his jaw.

Atlas' neck was grabbed by a Shadow-Clone: who flew him into several sky-scrapers and tossed him downwards. Sonic-booms echoed across the air as Atlas collided into a sky-scraper.

(-)

Annabeth, Percy, Luke, and Kronos staggered backwards from the shock-wave of Atlas being thrown into a sky-scraper. The son of the seas gazed at the golden outline that hovered above the area.

Clasping his calloused hands and releasing an annoyed breath, Naruto extended two chakra-arms out from his shoulders. Atlas flicked his hand forward. Naruto raised an eye-brow. "What is he trying now?"

Another pair of gigantic spears capable of obliterating the entire city materialized in the air. One approached Naruto from the right while the second one approached Naruto from the left. "This again?"

"Atlas!" Kronos directed a shout of authority at where Naruto had thrown Atlas and gritted his teeth. "What are you doing right now?!"

The spears hovered across the air. Sky-scrapers grazed and touched by these weapons collapsed in on themselves in seconds. Naruto lowered his arms, tilting his head without a hint of worry whatsoever.

"Naruto destroyed one of them." Annabeth murmured to herself, concerned. "But can he destroy those two spears at the same time?"

Percy grinned once he noticed Naruto's nonchalant expression. "I think that our resident Mr. Blond has more tricks up his sleeves!"

"I don't think even Naruto Uzumaki can destroy these spears." Luke chuckled in amusement. "They're much larger than the last one."

Particles of wind and lava gathered themselves in the hands of Naruto's golden chakra-arms. "Wind-Style: Massive-Rasenshuriken!" He shouted. "Lava-Style: Massive-Rasenshuriken!"

The two humongous spears collided into the two variations of this powerful Jutsu. Naruto propelled his gigantic Rasenshuriken(s) upwards. He clapped his calloused hands. "Expand even more!"

Growing more and more in size, the Rasenshuriken(s) swallowed the two ginormous spears in their entirety. Three seconds passed—and the night-sky was illuminated by an eruption of tremendous chakra.

An immense shock-wave of energy rattled the city. Naruto landed on the concrete of the area where his friends stood. Kurama chuckled. "It really has been too long since you were able to use this much power."

"You're right." Naruto watched Atlas rush at him in an outline of untraceable agility and deflected an incredible punch. "Come on!"

Annabeth stared at the destruction created from the shock-wave of energy. "Naruto was able to cause this much damage, huh?"

Percy maintained the grin on his features. "Yeah."

"His strength will be a nuisance if he helps out those two." Kronos chortled to himself and blurred forward. "Atlas shall keep him busy!"

Embedding a front-kick into Annabeth's stomach, Kronos turned around and slammed his knuckles into Percy's stomach. Luke appeared behind Percy, hurtling him and Annabeth into each other.

"Stay out of this battle for now, Luke." Kronos ordered his loyal follower and popped the muscles in his arms. "I want to fight them."

Luke lowered his head in acceptance. Kronos grinned, leaned himself forward, and vanished in a burst of formidable agility. Percy was upper-cut in the jaw. Annabeth was roundhouse kicked in the head.

Mana covered Annabeth's knuckles as she punched Kronos straight in the nose. Unharmed, Kronos aimed a Time-Slice at Percy. Water rose from the pipes of an intact restaurant and engulfed Kronos in a vortex.

Time slowed down Annabeth's and Percy's movements. Emerging from the vortex of hardened water, Kronos summoned a golden scythe and cleaved it at Annabeth's neck. However, he was stopped.

Annabeth had somehow erected a shield of mana in front of herself. Interest flickered in the malicious depths of Kronos' battle-thirsty eyes. "I suppose she is still able to use her spells."

Snapping his fingers, Kronos dispelled the layer of time cast over his two opponents until a shock-wave shook the city for a second time. Naruto engaged Atlas in a heated match of hand-to-hand combat.

Atlas called a rapier into his hand to slice and dice at Naruto. Searching himself for a Kunai, Naruto realized he had none left. Naruto's Rasengan shattered the blade into scraps of steel.

A muscled hand grabbed Naruto's shoulder and propelled him through twenty sky-scrapers. Rolling into a random area, Naruto crashed against the fence of a parking-lot. The fence crumbled into nothing.

Drilling his aureate fist into Atlas' nose, Naruto hurtled him across the city and returned to the area where they had just been. Atlas pressed a palm down into the concrete. Spikes of divine energy were formed.

Naruto skated through the area, flipping over and destroying the spikes that sprouted out from beneath him. He appeared above Atlas and shouted. "I guess it's time for this Jutsu! Massive-Rasengan!"

Bracing himself, Atlas felt the chakra gnaw at and dissolve his flesh. Regenerating his muscles and arms, the titan of endurance grinned. "That won't be enough to stop me, Naruto Uzumaki!"

A roundhouse kick to the hip buried Atlas into a pile of materials from the eradicated sky-scrapers. Naruto sensed Atlas behind him. Twisting himself around on the spot, Naruto punched his opponent's chest.

Skidding backwards from the power of the punch, Atlas cracked his neck before driving his fore-arm into Naruto. Luminous eyes gandered at Atlas' blood-thirsty countenance. Naruto called for a chakra-arm.

Naruto punched his chakra-arm into Atlas and threw him back. Entering the stance of an unhinged boxer, he flicked a multitude of punches into Atlas' sternum. Naruto flipped onto a balcony platform.

Atlas slammed his foot down on the concrete and generated a gigantic slab of stone—but was stopped when a golden blur ripped off his arm. Dropping the bloodied limb to the ground, Naruto smirked.

A languid chuckle of approval erupted forth from the titan of endurance's lips. Restoring his stolen arm, Atlas flexed his fingers. "You do realize that I can regenerate from this sort of damage?"

Naruto slanted his head, tensed his muscles, and grinned. "And you really think I give a crap about that? I've fought people who can heal!"

Surprised for the shortest of seconds, Atlas lifted his arms to guard himself from the endless barrage of punches Naruto engraved into his body. He hummed. "This monstrous creature is truly powerful!"

"His regeneration is impressive." Atlas mused to himself in an intense bout of contemplation. "His hand-to-hand combat skills are top notch!"

Pressing his aureate knuckles against Atlas' nose, Naruto drove him through a perpetual number of walls. More and more buildings collapsed from their foundations being obliterated by his strength.

Atlas stepped out from the rubble of these destroyed buildings and smiled. Naruto canted his head and sighed.

He clenched his fists.
