AN1: Guys the PM email notifications are NOT working right now. I heard FF took that function down. So, I am replying to everyone ok! You have to check your PM inbox like I do to see response any PMs! (go to your name in top right corner, left bar- Private Messaging-inbox and tada all the messages go through but you won't get emails saying it did! This goes for all my stories! Check your box for PMs and actually read them!

Sorry for the delay. A big thing was I had like 10 ideas on how I wanted the Ares fight to go and I could never get the motivation to actually write any of them. I will allude to how it ended but for now you guys will just have to trust me when I say the Ares vs Naruto fight DID happen and Naruto did actually beat Ares.

Ares in my story went all out and Naruto still EVENTUALLY beat him (in my head canon Ares probably was like 5/10% of his true power when he was forced to flee from Percy).

Really sorry everyone but I spent MONTHS thinking and trying to write it and it didn't work. For the sake of actually continuing this story I am forced to make a decision so I chose to put that particular chapter on the backburners.

In the future I might include an "extra Hope of the Sun and Moon" story that includes "missing" chapters like Naruto vs Apollo and Naruto vs Ares but for now please accept my apologies.

If people ARE wondering besides Six Paths Jinchuuriki this is my favorite of my stories but big scenes like the Naruto vs Ares fights gets me stuck ok?

By the way I am including the Gods POV in my story as this is NOT strictly a first-person series like Percy Jackson or third person centred around specific people like Heroes of Olympus. It does jump from perspective to perspective. The Gods are pretty fun to write for as the first two official series you only see them from the POV of the hero who is talking to them (Percy forms opinions of the Gods as he sees them not their own thoughts).

Super long chapter! (before people say it the actual battle would not be very good right now so I skipped it). This has a lot of talking and things moving.

Chapter 23 Saying hi to Gramps for the first time

After the Furies left with Hades Symbol of Power the Helm of Darkness the Questors were left on an empty beach just gaping at what happened. Naruto had the used the power of the Mist to convince all the mortals at the beach that a 'Typhoon' was incoming so evacuations were heeded.

Percy took a glance at the wrecked beach and thought 'Typhoon. Right. Although I suppose based on Naruto and Ares fight its not that much a lie.'. The beach looked like it had been destroyed by a natural disaster especially when Ares had used his 'Godly Form' against Naruto.

"Okay first of all. Wow. You actually beat Ares even when he used his Godly powers and assumed Godly form!" Grover yelped in admiration as Naruto rubbed his head nervously.

"Well it was as much luck as anything else." Naruto claimed with a laugh as the group gave him disbelieving looks.

"Luck?! You were like super fast in swordsmanship and then you were like I dunno an acrobat using your body to do punches and kicks!" Percy shouted trying to wrap his head around the fight he just witnessed between his friend and his Godly cousin.

Annabeth was speaking about a thousand words a minute as Naruto gave her an amused look waiting for her to slow down.

"You were like golden and super fast and powerful!" Grover recalled as he remembered Naruto form having a golden aura which made it so Ares could not properly defend himself even when Naruto was unarmed and just using kicks and punches. AN2:

Naruto smiled lightly remembering getting the sweet taste of a little payback after Ares insulted his mother and implied that his father 'forced' himself onto her when they were mortal.

"Then Ares yelled and turned into a Supernova which made us behind the barrier still have to look away or be incinerated!" Percy recalled with a shudder as even when not looking at Ares he still felt like there was a sun blasting near his body.

"Its called Divine form Percy." Annabeth reminded him as Percy rolled his eyes at Annabeth need to be right all the time.

"The Barrier was called Four Red Yang Formation barrier. Mom and Dad says it likely the most powerful barrier ninjutsu in existence." Naruto added as he used 4 shadow clones to create the barrier while he fought Ares seriously one on one. What he did mention noy to them was it usually took 4 Kage level shinobi just to create the barrier while he managed to create and maintain the barrier by himself. AN3:

Naruto had tried to teleport the questors away from the fight at the beginning using the Flying Rajin jutsu but to his annoyance he could not teleport outside the battlefield so he was forced to use a high-level barrier so his friends could be safe while he fought seriously.

'It must be those damn Fates your parents complained about. For some reason they wanted those friends of yours to watch that fight so their presence interfered with the Flying Rajin ability to bend space-time.' Kurama added inside his seal as Naruto frowned.

'Must be. I could feel my markers even the ones far away I just couldn't move to them.' Naruto admitted to Kurama. He was instantly able to go to the Marker he left in the Kunai to Percy despite being in the Underworld. He was also able to teleport to his Shadow clone a fair distance away from Ares but he felt some kind of force holding him in place when he tried to teleport far away from the Beach.

His mom and Dad had told them Gods could overpower Demigods using the same element or domain within this world due to having far more control over the domain itself. Naruto could only assume that the Fates could somewhat influence or prevent things that deviated too far from the pre-determined path. AN4:

"Anyways I don't want to be fighting anymore Gods any time soon so are ready to finish your quest or not?" Naruto joked lightly as the group blinked before laughing when they realized they still had to deliver the Master Bolt back to Zeus himself.

"So, any ideas on how we get to New York City before tomorrow?" Percy asked nervously as even with Naruto's help, they only had less then 2 days before the Summer Solstice.

"Maybe we can take a plane? Naruto has enough money, right?" Grover suggested as Naruto frowned while Annabeth and Percy shook their head frantically.

"Take a plane? The very thing you guys warned me never to do at the beginning of the quest?" Percy asked incredulously.

Naruto had to give it to Percy for being smart enough to remember the warning as his grandfather was particularly short sided when it came to the children of his brothers crossing into his domain. AN5:

"What? We have the Master Bolt! Surely Lord Zeus wouldn't blow it up allow with us right?" Grover asked only to get distant thunder booming in response.

Meanwhile shortly before on Olympus

The Olympians were still in shock at the thought of a 'mere' mortal defeating one of their own when Ares (despite being against their laws) used his Divine Form and full power.

However, Artemis and Apollo could not be prouder of their son as Artemis in a rare show of emotion had elected to sit next to her twin in his throne during the fight with Ares. Normally Aphrodite would have had a field day with news but for once she focused on anger at her 'kinda' boyfriend Ares trying to eliminate her newest favoured child Naruto Uzumaki. AN6:

"Our boy did it. He really completed Tailed Beast Mode for real." Artemis said with proud tears flowing down her face as Apollo quickly wiped the tears away but tried to cough in his hand when Artemis gave him a weird look.

"I saw it too. He never could use that level of power even during training but he actually evolved during his fight with Ares and mastered it." Apollo noted with pride clear. Even when Naruto was trying to run away from Apollo to get on the quest Naruto was unable to use the full power of Kurama but he managed to use it when Ares was using full power. AN7:

Luckily for them this quick exchange was missed by the Olympians as they were still gaping at the damage Naruto did when battling Ares and how Naruto actually beat a full powered God into submission.

Flashback to Naruto fighting Ares

Naruto was in chakra mode calmly batting away the attacks of Ares with his sword unable to penetrate the Cloaks protection.

Naruto sent a kick with his cloak activated sending Ares flying golden blood spewing out of his mouth as he skidded across the beach. He only stopped when Naruto ran besides him and jumped sending a drop kick as Ares coughed more blood as another crater appeared.

"Give it up. You can't win Ares. Like Lady Athena says there is no honour in fighting a pointless battle." Naruto said calmly looking down at Ares.

Ares coughed and glared at the blonde with hatred in his eyes.

"Honour?! I don't care what that owl bitch says! A fight is a fight! And it only ends when one side is wiped out!" Ares spat at swinging his sword at Naruto who calmly flipped backwards to dodge the strike.

"Screw the rules! I am killing you if it's the last thing I do!" Ares announced as his form started to glow making Naruto eyes widened.

The Naruto inside the Barrier with Annabeth, Percy and Grover could sense the buildup of energy and quickly reinforced the power of the barrier as he sat down and focused.

"Guys look down! Even with the barrier if you look directly at Ares form you will be burned and probably end up in a coma!" Naruto warned as the questors quickly looked away from Ares and the real Naruto.

Meanwhile Ares shone a brilliant light of golden light as he transformed into his true Divine form and grew to 50 feet tall.

"Haha! That poor brat of Artemis surely perished now!" Ares shouted as he looked down and saw the barrier still up making him growl.

"Hmph. I guess I gotta to personally crush those heroes myself." Ares mused until he felt a stinging on his cheek and to his shock Naruto in his cloak was still there glaring at him.

"You still have to get past me if you want my friends!" Naruto declared as his chakra arm retracted while he glared up at the Full power Immortal God.

"Impossible! No mortal can stand to look at a God while we are in our true forms! Even a Demigod would perish just staring at me let alone a mere mortal." Ares bellowed stomping the beach underneath him.

Naruto smiled to himself and declared "I guess that makes me not just a mortal huh?" as he looked at his arms while in Chakra mode.

Next Several minutes of high speed battle where Ares giant form was capable of matching Naruto in chakra mode with neither of them able to get any real damage to the other but the beach was destroyed by the impacts of their blows.

Ares swung his massive sword once again which Naruto blocked with several chakra arms before he flipped over and slid back several feet looking at the annoyed Ares.

"I gotta finish this soon or this entire place will be destroyed barrier or no barrier." Naruto whispered as he looked around to see this former beach already starting to turn into a war torn battlefield.

"Hmph! You might be able to fight me on par but can your friends?" Ares taunted as Naruto looked back at his friends where the barrier kept the damage to them away but the field around them was getting destroyed.

Ares used this moment where Naruto was distracted to kick Naruto away sending him flying past the barrier as he grunted before he eventually flipped up and came to a stop.

Naruto then saw Ares hold a massive amount of flames in his hands which grew bigger and bigger. He grinned in a crazy way before tossing the ball of fire not at Naruto but at the barrier as Naruto shadow clone eyes widened not knowing if the questors would survive with the barrier.

Time seemed to slow down for Naruto as he sprinted at the ball of fire as he kept getting faster and faster until he started to glow a golden light.

Ares was laughing until he saw a golden light zoom at his massive fire ball and the fire ball itself seemed to vanish.

Ares looked around before he turned around and saw what appeared to be Naruto in a golden light holding the Fire ball except it now was the size of his hand being forcibly compressed down in size.

Naruto was looking up at Ares before he squeezed his hand causing the fire ball to collapse on itself and disappear. Naruto was standing on top of the water calmly.

Ares growled before running at Naruto at full speed slashing down at Naruto with both hands on his true Sword a representation of his Godly symbol. Only for Naruto to appear to disappear and appear above Ares as he was swinging.

Ares blinked before he felt several blows hit him making him stagger as his head was forced down. Naruto landed on top of the water again as Ares growled sending a massive fist at Naruto directly.

Naruto seemed to 'slip past' Ares before Ares coughed up blood as his entire body in his Divine Form was sent flying deeper into the water as he fell over onto his back.

To the shock of the Gods and Ares Naruto was bathed in Golden light before it started to solidify revealing a taller more mature Naruto with the same cloak as before but more refined.

Instead of a golden yellow flame like appearance it manifested as an evolved version of that mode with vastly more power and speed. His pupils became slitted, the whisker-like markings on his face become thicker to resemble the trigram, and the chakra shroud's shape altered to resemble a full-length haori, similar to the one Minato usually wore.

As the Gods were gaping at the power shown by Naruto Artemis and Apollo could barely contain tears of pride and love.

They looked at each other and spoke without saying it out loud.

"Apollo." Artemis mouthed out as she looked at Apollo in the eyes.

"Yes?" Apollo said simply holding back a grin.

"He's done it. Hasn't he?" Artemis said with pride.

"Yes he has." Apollo confirmed with a small nod.

"Our boy really is one of a kind. He did what we failed to, and what Bee and Yugito would unlikely be able to do with Kurama." Artemis said proudly.

"This power and radiant glow. It can only be one thing! It's the true and complete form of Kurama Tailed Beast Mode!" Apollo declared to Artemis through their link. AN7.5

Aphrodite was giggling to herself when she saw still imagines of Naruto (using Hephaestus TV technology) in 'Golden Hunky Cloak Form' as she liked to call it. It turned out when Naruto used the full power of the Kyubi in a human shape it caused Naruto's young body of 12 to mature instantly into a 16-year version of himself to handle the power. Little to nobody surprise Aphrodite definitely approved. AN8:

"I like and approve! I cannot wait till my new favorite project is that old for real! I mean like yum. Now we just need one of my daughters like Silena or Piper to snag him for life and I will have a happy ending! Maybe both? Some many plans hehe." Aphrodite mumbled in delight as her romantic plans for Naruto Uzumaki were forming in her head.

Poseidon smiled in satisfaction as he offered many times in the fight to subdue Ares himself especially when he started to draw dangerously close and eventually use Full Power against mere mortals. Only his brother's express judgement of not intervening during the quest stayed his hand. He had thought Zeus was being a brat and hypocrite for allowing Ares to do what he liked during the Quest only because he was part of the quest in the prophecy.

Hermes and Demeter for once not answering emails or talking about wheat being shocked to see the power used by Naruto in his fight with Ares.

Hera was quiet during all the chatter but she did have a contemplative look on her face looking at Naruto as if seeing something new about to happen.

Dionysus was quiet and pretending to read his wine book but if you looked closely a hint of a smile of pride was hidden.

Athena was silent but she was looking down with her eyes flashing as if analyzing a million of scenarios at once.

Hephaestus was looking at the screen was interest with him grumbling about the possibility of his technology being flawed or if he was actually seeing someone beat the living shit out of his least favorite brother. He was also mumbling that this mortal had his favor for beating Ares.

Hestia was once again quietly tending to the hearth but with a massive smile of pride of love of her only godchild being alive and being a true hero in her opinion.

Finally, Zeus regained order in the throne room with a loud shout of authority as everyone eventually quieted down for the King.

"Quiet!" Zeus roared in his authority as King of the Gods.

"Peace brother your Master Bolt is returning after a successful quest." Poseidon said calmly as Zeus nodded.

"Yes. Artemis and Apollo! How is Ares recovery going?" Zeus asked as most of the Gods grumbled not quite happy Ares had willingly tried to start a war which went well beyond even his domain's perimeters.

"Father. Ares is recovering like you asked." Apollo said stiffly as Artemis had teleported back to her own throne but had a frown on her own face.

"His pain?" Zeus asked with a neutral expression.

"He will eventually come back to full strength with enough Nectar and Ambrosia but no we did not instantly heal his non threatening injuries." Artemis said as Apollo and her resisted grinning seeing Ares groan when they dropped his off at his temple.

"Good. That little upstart deserves some pain before he faces my wrath." Zeus said darkly planning to punish his bloodthirsty son for not only refusing to return his Master Bolt after retrieving it but also trying to manipulate him and his brothers for a full-scale war. The way Zeus saw it he was justified to start a war when needed but anyone trying to use him would face his wrath.

This got grunts of agreement from everyone including Aphrodite. She did not particular care her kind of lover wanted to start a war (as she would freely admit she caused Paris and Helen to start the Trojan War) AN9: but she was annoyed her lover tried to kill her favorite 'mortal' Naruto at full strength. She still believed he would lead an 'interesting love life'.

Hera sighed but nodded it was her role as 'Goddess of Family' to accept her family in particular if he was her child no matter how much a disappointment, she personally thought he was.

Zeus then soon heard Grover the Satyr claim they since they had the Master Bolt they could freely go a plane which greatly insulted the proud God.

"What did that Satyr say?! He plans to extort me with my Symbol of Power?! He should eb proud to be allowed the privilege of bringing it me in one piece!" Zeus screamed as the room filled with Ozone due to Zeus's anger.

Most of Zeus's children flinched in their thrones while Hera frowned at her husband's paranoid nature.

"Peace brother I am sure they meant no insult." Poseidon stated but he did grip his Trident in warning as Zeus growled but relented sitting back on his throne.

"Father I am sure my son will find a way to return your Master Bolt to your satisfaction." Apollo stated calmly with Artemis nodding her head as Zeus blinked before nodding.

The Olympian looked down to see Naruto chastise Grover for the implied insult before much to most of the Olympians surprise Naruto got on his knees and knelt.

"Lord Zeus. Please forgive my friend remarks. He did not mean to insult you my Lord." Naruto said respectfully.

"Please allow me to use my teleportation technique to transport Annabeth Chase and Grover Underwood to Camp Half Blood and allow myself and Percy Jackson to teleport to New York to return your Master Bolt. I eagerly await a sign from my Lord or another of the Olympians before we make another move." Naruto declared as he continued to kneel even as Percy and Grover looked dumbfounded.

The Olympians looked at the proud Artemis and Apollo who smiled hugely at their son before Zeus coughed.

"Well at least your son knows his manners. I shall allow his requests to be done." Zeus declared with a sparkle in his eyes. He snapped his finger as an eagle appeared at the beach and squawked before disappearing.

Back with the Questors

When Percy saw an eagle appear out of nowhere Percy yelped before the eagle gave him a disapproving look and squawk before flying away.

Naruto finally stood up with a grin saying "Looks like we are about to finish your quest Percy." Naruto said brightly as Percy looked abit annoyed.

"Yeah you didn't have an eagle just fly and glare at you." Percy mumbled as Annabeth sighed.

"Percy the eagle is the sacred animal of Zeus so it would make sense he would send you as a sign." Annabeth said patiently as Naruto crossed his finger making a single shadow clone appear.

"Okay Grover and Annabeth grab onto my shadow clone shoulders and he will teleport you back to Camp Half Blood instantly." Naruto told them as Grover and Annabeth gave him worried looks.

"Are you sure you and Percy will be okay alone? I mean it is Olympus and everything." Grover asked worried as Percy did look abit less confident now.

Naruto sent him a reassuring smile and thumbs up. "If Lord Zeus was going to blow us up he would've had whether we had his Master Bolt or not. The fact he sent an eagle means he is expecting us." Naruto said in a joking tone as Annabeth looked wide eyed at him.

Before anyone could protest Naruto's shadow clone gently grasped Grover and Annabeth's wrists and vanished instantly.

"Well you ready to meet the most powerful God face to face?" Naruto asked cheerfully as Percy looked at him incredulously.

"How can you be relaxed about this? Zeus in the story was the most paranoid God out there and you keep telling me with a smile on the your face it will be a walk in the park." Percy asked as thunder loomed in the distance.

"You need to learn when to keep your mouth shut when talking about Gods Percy. They really do not take insults likely." Naruto warned him before he made a few hands signs.

He used a basic Earth Style jutsu to help clear most of the debris from the beach and make it resemble a beach again.

"Besides unlike you I have been taught my parents my whole life about this day when I meet my Grandfather and what to do." Naruto said softly as his eyes looked down making Percy grimace.

Percy felt bad as much as he envied Naruto's life with his parents it seemed like Naruto was expecting the worst even with two Godly parents while he lived most of his life protected by his mother.

Before Percy could say another word, Naruto grabbed his shoulder and they vanished using Naruto's Flying Rajin to New York instantly. Nobody even blinked an eye when they appeared out of nowhere with people still yelling at each other and carrying on their business.

Naruto dragged Percy across the street as he was still gaping abit.

"Its Mist Percy. Even when you don't manually control it like I did with those people on the beach it naturally obscures the visions of normal mortals so strange events fit into their realm of perception." Naruto informed Percy who nodded dumbly.

"Okay that makes sense but why didn't you teleport us directly to the Empire State Building? Didn't Annabeth say that where it was?" Percy asked as they continued there walk across several lanes of traffic with nobody even noticing when Naruto literally walked through traffic dragging Percy safely.

Naruto sighed resisting the urge to smack his head in frustration. To him the answer was obvious but he knew Percy was still fairly sheltered in regards to the Olympians side of the world.

"Percy, I have only to Olympus when I was one day old where my family decided if I lived or died that day. I have never been back to Olympus since that day. I have to make a mark to teleport somewhere and Zeus would fry me to ashes if I dared to place a marker anywhere on Olympus." Naruto revealed as he took out his special Kunai with his Flying Rajin Formula.

Percy flinched when once again he was reminded that like him Naruto was considered an anomality to the normal demigods. He could not imagine how it would feel to know his parents had to beg for his life when he was just born.

Naruto saw the look on Percy's face and stopped raising a hand. "Stop. I don't need your pity and frankly if Lord Poseidon had declared you his son before this quest likely you would have died when you were born. Now at least you have some favor while Grandfather due to being on a quest to recover his Symbol of Power." Naruto said sharply before he started walking with Percy towards the Empire State building.

"Fair warning. Keep your head down and keep your mouth shut unless you being talked directly too. I am serious Percy. Lord Zeus already in his mind has many reasons to distrust you so don't give him a legitimate one okay?" Naruto informed Percy who frowned but nodded.

They soon entered the building where a lone guard was reading a book about a teen in a wizardry school who barely looked at them when they stopped at his desk.

"Names?" The guard asked in a bored voice when Percy was about to unzip his backpack with the Master Bolt before Naruto shook his head.

"Naruto Uzumaki and Percy Jackson." Naruto informed the guard who looked up from his book with wide eyes.

"You?!" The guard yelped pointing at Naruto who gave a raised eyebrow.

"Do you need some proof? I am sure father and Mother would love to talk to you directly." Naruto said lightly as the temperature in the room seemed to heat about 1000 degrees instantly.

"No! That is quite alright! Lord Zeus is expecting you both." The guard said in a rush as he quickly gave the key card to Naruto who smiled waving Percy over.

The temperature strangely enough became normal as soon as the key card was given to Naruto. Naruto and Percy soon entered the elevator and pushed the key card into the slot. It soon flashed and closed the door as Percy and Naruto felt the elevator rise but no music was heard.

"Huh. Mom always complained about the lame music with the elevator although Gods rarely use the mortal one to reach Olympus. I guess they fixed it or just turned it off." Naruto mused as Percy shrugged holding onto the bag containing the most powerful weapon in existence.

After several minutes the elevator stopped and the doors opened and both Naruto and Percy gasped at the majesty that was Olympus.

It was the most beautiful place they have ever seen making normal buildings look like toy blocks by comparison. They noticed many stands selling different products including nectar and Ambrosia. They were many handsome men and Woman who looked wide eyed and whispered as Naruto and Percy walked by.

A particularly pretty redhaired naiad giggled and waved at Percy who blushed and was about to greet her before being dragged by Naruto.

"Better to be early then seem like you are wasting Zeus's time." Naruto informed Percy who grunted but kept walking towards the throne room. They looked at each other before nodding as Naruto slowly pushed the giant doors open revealing the throne rooms of the Gods.

The first thing Percy noticed that the thrones were HUGE easily being able to fit giant beings like Hades and Ares in their Godly Forms but only two thrones were occupied at the moment.

Zeus, the King of the Gods, sat on a simple throne of solid platinum. He wore a dark blue pinstriped suit and had a well-trimmed beard, marbled gray and black like storm clouds. His face was proud and handsome and grim. Naruto noticed his eyes were not the Electric blue like Thalia's but a stormy grey as if he was about to cause a storm any minute.

The god sitting next to him was obviously his brother, just dressed differently. Poseidon essentially looked like Percy down to the same hair and eyes but just older but unlike Zeus his expression showed he smiled far more then his brother. He also had skin that was deeply tanned, hands scarred like an old-time fisherman's. He wore leather sandals, khaki Bermuda shorts, and a Tommy Bahama shirt with coconuts and parrots all over it. Percy resisted gawking when he saw essentially an older more powerful version of himself sitting in Giant size.

Poseidon's throne was a much simpler then Zeus's looking like a fisherman's chair with a slot for harpoons. Instead it had his Symbol of Power the Trident resting near his leg. The gods weren't moving or speaking, but there was tension in the air, as if they'd just finished an argument.

The Gods turned to the newcomers making Percy almost gulp but Naruto reacted first dropping to his knees.

"Lord Zeus." Naruto said respectfully with his head bowed down.

Percy instead had knelt to his father with a solemn expression.

"Father." Percy said simply as Poseidon gave his son an unreadable expression.

Zeus was about to stand up until a stare from his brother made him sit back down.

"Humph at least my grandson knows his manners. I cannot say the same for your son brother. Failing to address the Lord in his House properly." Zeus stated coolly making Percy start to sweat.

"Peace brother. It is only right for a son to address his father first." Poseidon pointed out calmly making Percy relax slightly.

" You still claim him despite our sacred oath brother?" Zeus asked Poseidon angrily who looked calm despite the tension in the air.

"I have admitted my mistake brother. Now we shall hear what my son and my Grand-nephew have to say." Poseidon said calmly as Zeus raised a hand allowing Naruto and Percy to rise.

Naruto felt bad when he saw Percy shoulder drop when Poseidon called him a mistake.

Naruto gave a bow of respect to the Lord of the Seas who nodded.

"Very well. Percy Jackson explain your quest to us now." Zeus demanded as Percy nodded and went over every detail of the quest including the parts he knew about when Naruto joined the quest.

Both Gods were silent for a minute before Naruto slightly nudged Percy with his shoulder. He shifted his head to his backpack and Percy understood.

Percy bowed to Zeus this time before he picked up the backpack laying at Zeus's feet before he walked back next to Naruto. The backpack fluttered before the cylinder of raw power hovered out of the back pack in front of its master humming with power.

Zeus raised his hand and the cylinder rushed to his hand and as soon as it touched Zeus's hand it transformed into what mortals would think of a lightning bolt. A 20-foot javelin of raw power of electricity hissing so much power that both Percy and Naruto's hair stood on edge.

Meanwhile Poseidon was unaffected by the raw power besides raising an eyebrow as his brother inspected his symbol of power.

"To think Ares would actually allow himself to be used like that to start a war." Zeus said thoughtfully stroking his beard as Naruto shot a glare at Percy when it looked like he was about to make a comment.

Luckily for them Poseidon seemed to share their sentiment. "He is prideful like the rest of our family. He did use his Divine Form against Demigods and a mortal in a fight he was clearly losing. That says much about his lack of integrity brother." Poseidon pointed out as Zeus eyes narrowed but he nodded.

"Agreed. We shall punish Ares for his insolence at another time." Zeus declared as Poseidon nodded his head in agreement.

"My Lord?" Percy asked respectfully showing tact which Naruto was pleased with.

"Yes?" Both brothers answered immediately but luckily neither seemed to take much offense.

"I believe Ares was being used. He mentioned dreams." Percy started explaining about their experience near the pit and his dreams.

Zeus was quick to point out Hades which Percy quickly denied.

"No, my Lord. Ares mentioned fearing someone in his dreams and in the pit, we sensed something ancient and evil radiating from Tartarus. Almost like something older than the Gods." Percy explained.

Zeus and Poseidon quickly exchanged words in Ancient Greek so fast Percy only managed to clearly hear one word. 'Father'.

To Naruto's more trained ears he heard something along the lines of Poseidon trying to convince Zeus of the evidence pointed out in the quest. Zeus glaring at his brother and claiming that their father was gone forever and would never rise again. Poseidon calling him short sided and Zeus saying his brother should leave affairs of Olympus to him.

"Enough! We shall not speak of this matter again!" Zeus declared raising a hand when he saw Poseidon about to object.

"Yes, my Lord." Percy said sombrely quickly seeing his uncle would not budge.

"You two have done a great service for Olympus and I suppose thanks must be said." Zeus said with a frown.

Percy decided to pipe up "Sir. It was not just us. Annabeth Chase and Grover~~"

Only to be interrupted when Zeus did a quiet but resounding tap on his throne.

"I do not trust you Percy Jackson as you could be a threat to my family some day." Zeus said sternly as Percy glanced at the stone-faced Naruto. "However, for the sake of peace I shall let you live and reserve judgement for another day." Zeus added with his stone faced glace in place.

"Thank you, sir." Percy said bowing his head.

Zeus then turned to his grandson with an emotionless expression as if he was trying to figure something out.

"Naruto Uzumaki rise!" Zeus demanded as Naruto dutifully stood up and looked at Zeus with a blank expression.

Zeus took a moment to look at Naruto directly noticing his son's blonde hair and blue eyes staring back at him. He also noticed small tips of his daughter's auburn hair and a sparkle of his daughter's bright silver eyes starring back at him.

'My children's child. Leto…. What would you do if you were here?' Zeus thought thinking about his previous lover who granted him two immortal children who he loved. AN10:

Naruto stared at his grandfather straight in the eyes like his parents stressed many times when he would eventually have to meet his grandfather in person.

After a minute Zeus decided to speak. "When you were born and brought to here by your parents I did nto know what to do with you. You were not the act of my daughter breaking her oath nor a random child born from a random woman being impregnated by my son. You were both a contradiction being mortal but having the power to potential rival us in time." Zeus said as he starred at Naruto with an annoyed face.

Sensing a pause Naruto bowed his head and said "I am aware my Lord. My Parents told me this story before."

"Yes, Ares tried to convince me to kill you on the spot so we would not have to worry about you gaining the power of the Kyubi and rising against us and I was tempted to do so." Zeus admitted as Poseidon frowned but kept quiet. Percy was holding back wincing when his uncle bluntly said he was going to murder his best friend as an infant.

Zeus sighed rolling his Master Bolt in his finger absent mindingly. "However, most of the rest of the council did not agree with Ares and thought it would be a sin to carry out this act. My sister Hestia who has never involved herself in the matters of the council herself was most passionate about this crime. She declared it would be the same as father eating my siblings when they were born to avoid a prophecy and it is true, I would be no better then father if I committed this act." Zeus said with tired eyes. AN11:

Naruto knew who abstained from the vote from his parents but had an idea that a certain wine God would vote no if asked again.

"So I relented and spared your life. I even accepted the request of my sister and my children to raise you as they saw fit." Zeus added before gauging Naruto carefully.

"Now it appears you have gained the full power of the Kyubi inside of you and even defeated an Olympian in combat at full strength." Zeus said with a frown.

"My lord I only used enough power to subdue Ares and nothing more." Naruto said respectfully as Zeus nodded.

"I am aware. I suppose my children teachings and parenthood have shown true loyalty to Olympus and your friends so no actions will be needed to be taken today." Zeus declared with a hint of a smile as Naruto bowed his head to hide his relieved smile.

Percy resisted grinning at his friend as Poseidon nodded with approval.

"Now I shall go to the River Lemmos to cleanse my Bolt of the impurity of mortals touching it." Zeus said flatly.

He stood up and then turned his stare to Percy Jackson as his face was in a frown as if annoyed, he was not killing Percy today.

"Percy Jackson. I shall spare your life today for your help in retrieving what is mine. However, if you dare enter my domain be prepared to face the consequences of your actions." Zeus told Percy sternly who nodded his head.

He then turned to Naruto but his face was neutral but a hint of pride could be seen in his eyes.

"Naruto Uzumaki! Continue to prove my children's belief in you was not misplaced. Walk the correct path and make your parents proud of you." Zeus said with the tiniest hint of smile on his face. He then walked off his throne and vanished in a flash of thunder.

Percy and Naruto let out a sigh of relief as Poseidon just chuckled getting off his throne and turning into a human size that Naruto was used to with his parents.

"My brother has always had a flare for the dramatics. He should have been the God of Theatre." Poseidon stated with a smirk as Percy coughed to avoid laughing. Naruto just nodded his head at the powerful God.

Percy glanced at the God who was his father but also called him a mistake with a look of resignation and bitterness in his eyes.

Poseidon appeared to sense his son's emotion as he sighed asking Percy to look at him.

"Percy…." Poseidon stated not quite sure what to say to his newest Demigod son wo he admitted he could do very little for up to today.

"My Lord." Percy stated flatly getting a sense of pleasure when he saw Poseidon flinch at the name.

Naruto stayed quite knowing it was not his place to say who was right or wrong especially when his situation with his parents was different to all Demigods.

"My Lord. May I be excused? It seems like I am needed elsewhere." Naruto stated politely as he saw Percy give him an unsure look for being left with his father for the first time.

Poseidon gave Naruto a grateful look before pointing at the door.

"You may indeed. Your parents are eagerly waiting for you outside. Give my regards to them." Poseidon said as Naruto nodded and bowed.

As Naruto passed Percy he patted him on the shoulder giving him a smile before he walked off.

Percy was left standing there with his father trying to ignore the ugly feelings when people said 'parents' to Naruto knowing it was not Naruto's fault he had two loving Godly parents who put him above everyone else.

"Sigh…. Your mother gave me the same look you are giving me now when I asked her to move to Atlantis with me when I got her pregnant with you." Poseidon admitted as Percy eyes widened in shock.

"You may not believe it but I loved your mother like one in a trillion and it truly broke my heart when I could not be there for you my child." Poseidon admitted as Percy looked uncomfortable at his father.

"Father. It is okay. I did not expect very much when I heard of you and I do not expect anything now." Percy said bluntly as Poseidon gave him a smile for his cheek. The God could not blame his child for these feelings when he could not do anything to prove him wrong.

"My Lord what was in that pit in the underworld?" Percy decided to ask trying to avoid asking personal questions to the God.

Poseidon was stone face as he said "I believe you know what it is.".

Percy bit his lip in worry "Kro~~" Percy started before Poseidon sent him a stern look of warning. Percy shuddered as it felt much colder for a moment even with a blazing Hearth with Fire burning.

"Titan's can not be destroyed any more then Gods my son. Whatever is left in that pit is still alive trying to get out." Poseidon explained in a tired voice.

"He is trying to revive Father." Percy declared as Poseidon gave him a look which made him mad as if his father was humouring him.

"He has tried for many thousands of years tempting men in their dreams but he has never risen from the Pit even once in all that time." Poseidon said carefully as Percy stared at him incredulously.

"Now that is enough about that subject. Lord Zeus has declared it off limits." Poseidon said calmly as Percy felt his temper rise.

"But!" Percy was about to continue until he reigned in his temper knowing that the God in front of him may be the only one on his side besides possibly Naruto's parents.

Poseidon gave him an amused smile before chuckling.

"You do not like to be restrained, do you?" Poseidon asked Percy who frowned.

"No Father." Percy admitted.

"Percy. The sea runs deep in you. That is why you cannot be restrained anymore then the sea can. The sea does not accept taking orders just like you." Poseidon told Percy proudly.

Percy was speechless as his father described his personality to the T.

'Maybe I not so different from him after all.' Percy thought looking at the God who eyes who shining with pride and what he hoped was love as well.

Poseidon sighed before saying sadly "You have been given a heroes burden from being born my son and that is a terrible fate."

Percy was about to walk off with feeling angry his father was basically telling him being born his son was a terrible thing.

However, he felt a warm hand on his shoulder as he spun around to see Poseidon looking at him with pride and affection.

"Percy. No matter what happens from here on now, know this one truth above all else. You are my son and a son of the Sea itself. You will always make me proud of you." Poseidon told him honestly as he held onto the shocked demigod's shoulder for a minute.

Percy bowed and walked away trying to avoid the tears brimming in his eyes while wondering how Naruto was doing.

AN2: This an allusion to Chakra mode (he didn't say their names out loud in the fight). Naruto using Tailed Beast powers typically abandon using weapons as he can fight better hand to hand when he is that fast and powerful. (A sword would get in his way with his unique fighting style but he can still use them of course)

AN3: This alludes to the fact he has at LEAST 4 times as much chakra (probably more so he can keep fighting) as Kage Level Shinobi. Remember this Naruto has the FULL Kurama sealed inside of him at birth and before he got to Camp Half Blood he managed to befriend and control their power.

AN4: So basically, Naruto cannot change EVERYTHING in the world of the Percy Jackson world if an event is 'big' enough the Fates will deviate things to lean towards that event. (like in Lost how you could see someone death and maybe prevent it but if that person is destined to die, they will die another way instead)

AN5: Fun thing if you missed it. Naruto only has 1 grandfather as Apollo and Artemis are twins. He doesn't really count Minato and Kushina's parents as Minato (in my story) was an orphan and Kushina (again in my story) could barely remember her clan. This makes him an oddity for a mortal since incest would be wrong for Mortal children but for Godly beings its not a big thing. (He is still mortal despite his parents being mortal and Godly at the same time.)

AN6: In my story Aphrodite treats Ares as more of a useful hookup from time to time while Ares gloats he 'bagged' Aphrodite which she simply doesn't care enough to dispute.

AN7: look this looks weird out of context so I will include an AN I put in the 'hidden' chapter 23 about Kurama Mode. (so basically, his chakra mode 'transformed' into KuramaMode during his fight with Ares in response to a need for more power and cooperation from Kurama. He could not use it before that fight (partly as he did not need it and partly as he did not know how to activate it).

AN7.5: I will admit this was INSPIRED by the Dragon Ball Super anime episode 129 where 'incomplete Ultra Instinct" is VASTLY inferior to "Complete Ultra Instinct". In the Non-canon Naruto shippuden movie 6 Road to Ninja. Yang Kurama even remarks that chakra mode is 'a little of its power' implying that Kurama mode is the vastly stronger version.

AN8: Basically, whenever he uses Kurama Mode with a young body for the duration of the transformation he turns into a taller more muscular 16-year version of himself. And as Aphrodite has thought he is even more attractive as a young adult instead of a young teen. Its basically like in Dragon Ball GT Goku's kid body turns into an Adult for Super Saiyan 4 transformations.

AN9: Read the Titan's curse she really did not mind a war was started in her eyes for true love and in The Lost Hero she dismissed Piper when she mentioned the Trojan War. It also doesn't help her Roman self Venus is one of the most respected Gods to the Romans while the Greeks kinda fear her but also treat her as a joke)

AN10: Zeus doesn't know Leto has been taking care of Naruto. He hasn't spoken to his spurred ex-lover in AGES and he is not exactly grandfather of the year either.

AN11: Before people call Zeus out, he is admitting this ONE act not apologizing for his many other sins. And its his DAUGHTER's child so that is a big factor in this.
