A/N: Anyone who wants to do a story where the characters read 'The Legacy of Athena and Hermes' series is allowed to do so as long as they tell me before hand.

I don't own Percy Jackson series or Naruto series, or any of the characters of either series. Nor am I the writer of the Son of the Huntress series

Warning: Read these stories if you haven't before reading this story:

'The Legacy of Athena and Hermes: The Lightning Thief'
'The Legacy of Athena and Hermes: The Sea of Monsters'
'The Legacy of Athena and Hermes: The Titan's Curse'
'The Legacy of Athena and Hermes: The Battle of the Labyrinth'
'The Legacy of Athena and Hermes: The Last Olympian'
'The Legacy of Athena and Hermes: The Staff of Hermes'

I'm going to make this clear to those who don't approve the idea of legacies in Camp Half-Blood.

One: If you actually looked into Greek Mythology you know there been plenty of Greek Legacies. Heck Frank's ancestors were Greek legacies before they joined the Romans.

Two: Time and time again in the Percy Jackson series they mention many famous names Rick Riordan used as demigods Greek Demigods reaching adulthood-George Washington, Amelia Earhart, F.D.R., General Sherman and many more-many of which had children of their own which would make their kids legacies.

Three: About Naruto not being wise enough to be a Legacy of Athena, keep in mind in future reference for any sequel fanfictions of Percy Jackson that when Percy and Annabeth have kids, if they have any of Percy's personality they might not have much interest in school and thus not show much of any of Athena's wisdom. So I should have a pass on the matter with Naruto because of that fact.

Four: Since I made Naruto a legacy of Athena through Minato, he can't have any connections with the Romans as for any god/goddess, Olympian or Minor to have a legacy they must have children who later grow up to have children of their own. Minerva doesn't have kids, and it been clear before the return of Athena's Parthenos the idea of the matter was saw as a disgrace to the Romans as it meant Minerva broke her vow in their eyes. Not to mention the fact that the feud between Greek and Romans was kept alive for so long because of Athena.

Also for anyone who thinks it be okay having a child/Legacy of Artemis or Hestia to meet the romans, although Diana or Vesta wasn't treated any worse from their Greek counterparts as the comparison of Athena and Minerva, keep in mind they also made a vow to not have any kids, and since Romans take their vows so seriously they have their own god whose domain is over vows I think they would frown upon the idea of Diana and Vesta breaking their vows. Although I did enjoy The Son of the Huntress series, even though Naruto saved Reyna and Hylla the fact any more Romans would accept the idea there being a child and grandchild of two virgin goddesses feels a bit far fetch.


Underground Entrances Normally Means Evil

Naruto seen plenty of fast moving things in his life: Centaurs, Pegasi, Hippocampi, Rock Lee without his training weights. But none of them were nearly out of control as storm spirits in Chicago—except for the Party Ponies on a Root Beer raid.

The Storm Spirit was a perfect diversion though. Naruto almost thought he had to reveal that he's a Jinchuriki for a while. Heck, he almost blew it back at Detroit. He had summon a little fox-chakra to create a wind-scythe twister to blow the monster dust to nothing. He didn't know how Piper and Leo didn't notice the red chakra. Naruto guess the gods did him a favor and covered it with the Mist or something.

But Piper did make a good point. Can the Nine-Tail Fox be what they need to defeat the giants?

It's not like Naruto was worried about losing control. If things get too far, he could use his katana and necklace to balance things out… hopefully. But like Leo with his fire powers, Naruto is scared of how these three will react when they find out he has an actual monster sealed inside him.

As for Shinigami business—Naruto doesn't plan to use the same jutsu his dad use to seal the Nine-Tail Fox, even if he knew how to use the jutsu. Still, Naruto felt like he should still know some other way to summon the Shinigami.

He once been told that the clan he descend from—the Uzumaki Clan—has connections with the Shinigami of the Elemental Nations, which is why many Greek Gods and Goddesses been attracted to them. If that was true, surely the Uzumaki clan must have had other ways to summon the Shinigami.

The Problem is most of the clan was dissolved when their original village: The Village Hidden in the Whirlpools was destroyed during one of the Great Shinobi Wars, and any surviving clan members split up and spread off to other nations for safety. Naruto didn't even know he was a descendant from a clan until he came to this world.

"Speed up," Jason urged.

"Bro," Leo said, 'If I get any closer, he'll spot us. Bronze dragon ain't exactly a stealth plane."

"Slow down!" Piper yelped.

The storm spirit dove into the grid of downtown streets. Festus tried to follow, but his wingspan was way too wide. His left wing clipped the edge of a building, slicing off a stone gargoyle before Leo pulled up.

"We can still track him from above, just as long as we stay low from the clouds," Naruto offered.

"Let's do that, then," Jasoin said.

Leo did what he was told and after a few minutes, they spotted the storm spirit again, zipping through the streets with no apparent purpose—blowing over pedestrians, ruffling flags, making cars swerve."

"Oh great," Piper said. "There're two."

A second ventus blasted around the corner of the Renaissance Hotel and link up with the first. They wove together in a chaotic dance, shooting to the top of a skyscraper, bending a radio tower, and diving back down toward the street.

"Those guys do not need any more caffeine," Leo said.

"I guess Chicago's a good place to hang out," Piper said. "Nobody's going to question a couple more evil winds."

"Why?" Naruto asked.

"Because Chicago is known as the Windy City due to the fact it's on the shores of Lake Michigan," Piper pointed toward the lake. "When they blow through the streets, it often sucked down in certain parts due to the large buildings."

"Oh," Naruto responded.

"There's more than a couple," Jason said. "Look."

The dragon circled over a wide avenue next to a lake-side park. At least a dozen storm spirits were whirling around a big public art installation.

"Which one do you think is Dylan?" Leo asked. "I wanna throw something at him?"

"I take it Dylan was one of the storm spirits at the Grand Canyon?" Naruto asked.

"Oh yeah," Leo answered.

They got closer to the art installation and found it was a unpleasantly familiar public fountain. Two five-story monoliths rose from either end of a long granite reflecting pool. The monoliths seemed to be built of video screens, flashing the combined image of a giant face that spewed water into the pool similar to what Jason described in his dreams. Then the image changed to a woman's face with her eyes closed.

"Dirt Lady," Naruto growled.

Then the screens went dark. The venti swirled together into a single funnel cloud and skittered across the fountain, kicking up a water spout almost as high as the monoliths. They got to its center, popped off a drain cover, and disappeared underground.

"Did they just go down a drain?" Piper asked. "How are we supposed to follow?"

"Maybe we shouldn't," Leo said. "The fountain thing is giving me seriously bad vibes. And aren't we supposed to, like, beware the earth."

"We don't have much of a choice. We need those spirits to negotiate with Aeolus if we are to have any hope to find Hera," Naruto said.

"Put us down in that park," Jason suggested. "We'll check it out on foot."

Festus landed in an open area between the lake and the skyline. According to Jason the sign said Grant Park. The dragon's hot metal feet hissed as they touched down. Festus flapped his wings unhappily and shot fire into the sky, but there was no one around to notice. The wind coming off the lake was bitter cold, so it only made sense that people would be inside.

They dismounted, and Festus the dragon stomped his feet. One of his ruby eyes flickered, so it looked like he was blinking.

"Leo, Festus' eye is acting up," Naruto said.

Leo pulled a rubber mallet from his tool bag. He whacked the dragon's bad eye and the light went back to normal. "Festus can't hang around in the middle of the park," Leo said. "They'll arrest him for loitering."

"I doubt that. The Mist probably make him look like some art sculpture," Naruto said. "But it probably be safer if he's not on the ground."

"Maybe if I had a dog whistle…" Leo rummaged in his tool belt but came up with nothing.

"What about a safety whistle?" Naruto asked. "I seen your siblings in Cabin Nine use them sometimes."

"Good idea. Give me a safety whistle." This time, Leo pulled out a big plastic orange whistle. "Coach Hedge would be jealous! Okay, Festus, listen." Leo blew the whistle and a loud shrill sound came out. "You hear that, come find me, okay? Until then, fly around and try not barbecue any pedestrians."

The dragon snorted, spread his wings and launched into the air.

Piper shivered in the cold reminding them that even on the ground it was freezing.

Naruto took off his backpack reach in and unsealed his sage cloak he brought with him as it help keep him warm.

"Where did you get that?" Leo asked.

"This? I got it a couple of years ago," Naruto said. "If you guys want, when we're not on Festus, I can share it."

"That would be nice," Jason agreed. "For now, let's get out of the wind."

"Down the drain?" Piper shuddered. "Sounds cozy."

"At least the wind spirits drain the water when they release the drain cover," Naruto said. Naruto tried to read the plaque but the letters kept swirling around. "What does the plaque says?"

Piper looked. "Crown Fountain."

"What's wrong, Naruto? Can't you read?" Leo joked.

"I have Dyslexia, give me a break!" Naruto said. "Here, Jason, since your quest leader, you can have my cloak first."

"Thanks, but give it to Piper, I'll go next," Jason said. "It's the least we can do since Aphrodite took her snowboarding jacket."

Naruto shrugged and handed it to Piper. Piper tried it on and found it was big on her, but it help keep her warm. The rest of them wrapped themselves up as best as they could and headed down the fountain.

Naruto was right about the fountain being drained. There were only a few patches left that were starting to freeze.

They stepped to the center of the pool without any problems. The drain hole was easily big enough for a person, and a maintenance ladder led down into the gloom.

Jason went down first, then Naruto, then Piper, then finally Leo. To their amazement the air was warm and dry down in a brickwork tunnel leading north and south.

"Are all sewers this nice?" Piper wondered.

"No," both Naruto and Leo replied.

Jason frowned. "How do you two know that?"

"Let's just say I had to fight many monsters in many places in Manhattan," Naruto said, hiding the fact that few months ago Naruto had fought Cacus and tried to had sewage water drown Cacus as his shadow clones kept the fire breathing giant busy. Although Naruto wasn't hit by the water, he still remembers the gagging taste it left his shadow clones with when they dispersed. Naruto was pretty sure whichever sewage the water came from was, it had to be disgusting for its water to taste so horrible.

"I ran away six times. I slept in some weird places." Leo explained. "Now, which way do we go?"

Jason tilted his head, then pointed south. "That way."

"How can you be sure?" Piper asked.

"There's a draft blowing south," Jason said. "Maybe the venti went with the flow."

"Great…" Leo responded.

Before they could start walking there was a loud growling sound.

"What was that?" Piper asked.

"I don't know," Jason said. "But it sounded close."

There was another growling sound, putting everyone but Naruto on guard. Naruto rubbed the back of his head as they turned to him. Naruto's stomach growled.

"Sorry guys. I guess I'm hungry," Naruto said.

Jason Piper and Leo face palm at that.

"We have been going none stop for over a day without something to eat," Piper said.

Jason nodded. "Let's stop and eat then. We can even rest up. Leo, can you pull any food from that tool belt besides breath mints?"

"Thought you never ask. Chef Leo is on it!"

Piper and Jason sat on a brick ledge while as Naruto helped Leo get a fire started and start cooking.

"Keep the flames low," Naruto said. "Underground places are favorite hideouts for monsters."

"Seriously?" Leo asked. "I been underground before and I never had trouble."

"You're lucky," Naruto said. "Even satyrs have a hard times smelling monsters out down here because anything underground normally smells like monsters. Even in the elemental nations we have a hard time with satyrs assigned to villages with underground entrances or entrances in caves."

Leo shrugged and started a small fire and got a skillet and what looked like meat out and started frying. As soon as the smell hit Naruto, he recognized the smell of tofu.

"Is that tofu?" Naruto asked.

"Yeah. Piper doesn't like meat, so I'm making tofu tacos," Leo said.

Naruto nodded. "I can understand that. When you work with satyrs you tend to get use to vegetarian friendly food. Heck, thanks to all the satyrs visiting the elemental nations, vegetarian Ramen has become one of the most popular flavor ramen of my favorite Ramen Restaurant. I wouldn't be surprise if the two here are the same."

"There's ramen restaurants from your world here?" Leo asked.

"Only two, one at the latest lair of the Lotus Eaters, and the other is at Olympus. The goddess Hebe introduce the restaurant: Ichiraku's here after she first tried it," Naruto said. "Before Olympus closed, I was trying to get the gods to open one street level next to the Empire State Building so demigods don't have to go to Olympus or lair of the Lotus Eaters to get a bowl in this world."

"Sounds like a good idea," Leo agreed then stare at Jason and Piper who were showing signs of their relationship building and sighed.

Naruto noticed Leo looking at Jason and Piper and figured out what the problem might be. After all, it's no different than what he saw Percy and Annabeth went through for four years before they finally started dating.

"You get use to it after a while," Naruto said.

"Huh?" Leo responded.

"Being the third wheel. You'll get use to it," Naruto said. "I been third wheel between Percy and Annabeth before they were even a couple."

"How do you deal with it though?" Leo asked.

"You just do what you normally do," Naruto said. "People fall in and out of love all the time. Heck, I once was part of a love triangle, having a crush on someone who was crushing on someone else."

"Seriously?" Leo asked. "When did that ended?"

Naruto was taken back. No one really asked him that before. Too be honest he don't even know if he did get over his feelings over Sakura. But he now know Sakura's heart was for Sasuke Uchiha, and despite everything Sasuke done, Naruto still would try to keep his promise to bring Sasuke back for Sakura. Even after the Titan War, Naruto had hopes Sasuke returned to the Elemental Nations in search for his brother and not back in this world where surely Zeus would slay Sasuke the first chance he gets.

"I don't know if I really got over it," Naruto said. "But it's safe to say I've stopped going after her and accepted the fact she won't become my girlfriend much less wife in the future."

Leo nodded and finished up frying the tofu. "So any idea what this mystery person Hera warned Jason about?"

You kidding me? You realized there are millions of villains and monsters in Greek Mythology, right? It could be anything." Naruto said. "I'll admit, the idea whatever it is, I have some unique power against it makes me want to fight it to see which power it is."

"Hera said it was something you didn't inherit from your grandparents or your patron, though," Leo said. "Is that even possible?"

"In my world, it is." Naruto said but couldn't help but think. I just hope it doesn't involve the Nine-Tail Fox.

Leo got back to his tofu, adding spices and peppers, before finishing it up. "And bingo!" Leo announced. He quickly pour the tofu into taco shells and set them on plates along with chips and salsa. Leo handed Naruto his food before serving Piper and Jason.

"Leo," Piper said in amazement. "How did you—?"

"Chef's Leo's Taco Garage is fixing you guys up," he said proudly. 'And by the way, it's tofu, not beef, beauty queen, so don't freak. Just dig in!"

Everyone chowed down and Naruto found the tofu tacos actually delicious. Even better than any Grover had tried to convince him and Percy to eat many times before.

After they were done, Piper yawned and Jason decided they should rest before they continued. Piper curled up on Jason's lap and quickly fell asleep.

Jason decided then to talk to Leo about his powers he claimed to have. Although Piper didn't mention Leo using it. Naruto assure them he seen for himself that Leo does have power to produce flames.

"So… Leo… about this fire stuff… is it true?"

Leo's smile faltered. "Yeah, well…" he opened his hand. A small ball of flame burst to life, dancing across his palm.

"That's actually a lot more than I can do," Naruto admitted. "I can do a lot with fire chakra, but I can't produce fire in my hands unless I apply chakra to a piece of paper."

"It's still cool," Jason said. "Leo, why didn't you say anything?"

Leo closed his hand and the fire went you. "Didn't want to look like a freak."

"You're not a freak, Leo," Naruto said. "You got a rare gift, one of which I doubt your dad bless on just any child of his."

"Maybe, but I'm telling you… it's not always a gift," Leo said.

They fell silent. "You're talking about your mom, aren't you?" Jason asked. "The night she died."

Leo didn't answer, but the fact he was quiet and not joking answered Jason's question.

"Leo, what happened to your mom wasn't your fault," Naruto said. "It's the dirt lady's fault. She was playing with your emotions and mess up your confidence so you feel like a failure, but you're not a failure. You're meant for something important."

"Yeah, that's what scares me," Leo said. "Something that might make or break the big prophecy."

"Leo, you think Percy was so sure of himself when it came to the last prophecy?" Naruto asked. "Before the battle of Manhattan, the biggest accomplishments he had done himself was slaying Medusa and holding up the sky. Every other battle we faced he faced with friends helping him or saving him because he screwed up. He was as worried as you are now that he would have to face something without his friends and mess up."

"What did you tell him?" Jason asked.

"First off, I told him that number of monsters one destroys doesn't make a great hero. Take Achilles. That guy's biggest accomplishment was his part in the Trojan War. You can ask Chiron himself, before the Trojan War, Achilles never faced a single monster in his whole life." Naruto said. "Even during the Trojan War, he still hadn't had to fight a monster and yet he played the biggest part in the Trojan War."

"That's actually a good point," Jason said.

"I know right? I can even tell you that I met his spirit once and at first I didn't think of the fact Achilles never fought a single monster, my thought was on the fact I was in a presence of a hero—even if it's just his spirit," Naruto said.

Leo poked at the remnants of his fire, turning over red-hot coals with his bare hands. "You guys ever wonder about the other five demigods? I mean…if we're four of the ones of the Great Prophecy, who are the others? Where are they?"

"I got an idea who one is," Naruto reminded them.

"The cat?" Jason asked.

Naruto nodded. "I don't know them in person, but I know whoever they are, they're like me—from the elemental nations." Naruto said while thinking, And a Jinchuriki of a tailed beast. I just wish I know what kind of power this person will have, but only other current Jinchuriki I met was Gaara and his tailed beast Shukaku.

Naruto flashed back to his battle with Gaara and how his sand was deadly even without him being fully transformed.

One thing for sure, Shukaku had different power from the Fox, so the Cat tailed beast must have different powers too. Naruto thought.

"Get some rest, guys," Jason said. "I'll take first watch."

Jason let them rest for over an hour before waking them up to break up camp. Then they started down the tunnel.

In twisted and turned and seemed to go on forever. It reminded Naruto of the Labyrinth too the point Naruto had to constantly remind himself that the Labyrinth is gone—destroyed with the death of it's creator Daedalus.

But if the Labyrinth really came to form a life of it's own, then maybe it can come back like monsters, Naruto thought as a shiver ran down his back. Gods, I hope I'm wrong about that.

Finally, they found polished steel elevator doors, each one engraved with a Cursive M which made Naruto groaned.

"I hate cursive writing," Naruto complained.

"M for Macy's?" Piper guessed. "I think they have one in downtown Chicago."

"Or Monocle Motors still?" Leo said. "Guys, read the directory. It's messed up."

"Someone read it outloud for me? I get a headache trying to read cursive writing," Naruto said.

Jason volunteered:

Parking, Kennels, Main Entrance: Sewer Level
Furnishing and Café M: 1
Women's Fashion and Magical Appliances: 2
Men's Wear and Weaponry: 3
Cosmetics, Potions, Poisons, & Sundries: 4

"Kennels for what?" Piper said. "And what kind of department store has its entrance in a sewer?"

"Magical places whose main customers are monsters," Naruto said.

"You're joking right?" Piper asked.

"Nope." Naruto said. "You'd be surprise how many magical places out there seemed welcoming to either monsters or mortals. The Lair of the Lotus Eaters is currently a Casino-Hotel at the end of one of the roads in Las Vegas."

"How do you know that?" Piper asked.

"Percy, Annabeth, Grover and I once visited there once for what we thought was only for a few hours until we got out," Naruto said. "We were there for almost a week without even knowing it."

"So that's how you know there's a ramen restaurant there," Leo said.

Naruto nodded. "That's also where I first heard of the one at Olympus until I been there myself."

"So any idea what this could be then?" Jason asked.

"Well, judging from the mention of magical appliances and potions on the directory, a sorcerer—maybe a child of Hecate—comes to my mind," Naruto said. "I doubt it's Calypso, and last I heard Circe's island is an island SPA resort in the Bermuda Triangle."

"The M might be an indicator," Piper said.

Jake took a deep breath. "When in doubt, start from the top."

The doors slid open on the fourth floor, and the scent of perfume wafted into the elevator, and everyone got out armed for anything.

"This is not Macy's," Piper said looking at the department store.

"The department store looked like the inside of a kaleidoscope. The entire ceiling was a stained glass mosaic with astrological signs around a giant sun. The daylight streaming through it washed everything in a thousand different colors. The upper floors made a ring of balconies around a huge central atrium, so they could see all the way down to the ground floor. Gold railings glittered so brightly, they were hard to look at.

Aside from the stained glass ceiling and the elevator, there were no other windows or doors, but two sets of glass escalators ran between the levels. The carpeting was a riot of oriental patterns and colors, and the racks of merchandise were just as bizarre. There were normal stuff like shirt racks and shoe trees but there were also armor on manikins, beds of nails, and fur coats that seemed to be moving.

In the middle of the atrium a fountain sprayed water twenty feet into the air, changing color from red to yellow to blue. The pool glittered with gold coins. On either side of the fountain stood a gilded cage like an oversized canary cage.

Inside one, miniature hurricane swirled, and lightning flashed—storm spirits that obviously been imprisoned. In the other, frozen like a statu, was a short buff satyr, holding a tree branch club with grey curly hair and a coach shirt with a whistle around his neck.

"Coach Hedge!" Piper said. "We've got to get down there."

"I'll get him out," Naruto said. "I'm good with locks."

Before Naruto could get down there, a voice said. "May I help you find something?"

All four of them jumped back.

A woman had just appeared in front of them. She wore an elegant black dress with diamond jewelry, and she looked like a retired fashion model—maybe fifty years old. Her long dark hair swept over one shoulder, and her face was gorgeous in a surreal super-model way—thin and haughty and cold, not quite human. With their long red painted nails, her fingers looked more like talons.

Well, definitely not Medusa, Naruto thought. Although Percy destroyed Medusa almost five years ago, Naruto didn't know how long Medusa can stay gone before regenerating.

Still, Naruto knew from personal experience that Medusa don't great her customers with her face visible for all to see. One look at Medusa's eyes turns anyone into stone, and Medusa likes to trick her victims to pose for her before turning them into stone so she can sell her victims as garden gnomes.

Whoever the woman was, she smiled at them. "I'm so happy to see new customers. How may I help you?"

Naruto step up, ready to work in his natural gift of negotiation when Jason asked. "Um, is this your store?"

The woman nodded. "I found it abandoned, you know. I understand so many stores are, these days. I decided it would make the perfect place. I love collecting tasteful objects, helping people, and offering quality goods at reasonable price."

"I don't know much about Chicago, but I been told America is a good place to start a business if you know how." Naruto agreed, although he didn't seem to notice that the woman was speaking in a foreign accent or that she was drawing in Leo's and Jason's attention.

"Are you new to America?" Jason asked.

"I am…new," the woman agreed. "I am the Princess of Colchis. My friends call me Your Highness."

"Colchis?" Naruto asked. "That place still exist?"

Jason shoved Naruto hard for being rude. "Sorry about my friend, Your Highness. We actually want something…." He pointed to the gilded cage on the first floor. "That's our friend down there. Gleeson Hedge. The satyr. Could we have him back, please?"

Naruto rubbed his side. What was that for?

"Of course!" the princess agreed immediately. "I would love to show you my inventory. First, may I know your names."

Jason seemed to be in internal struggle as if trying to decide if it was a good idea to give names

Piper started to say, "Jason, I wouldn't—"

"This is Piper," Jason finally said. "I'm Jason. This is Leo and this—"

"Nagato," Naruto said, not wanting to give his name away—just yet. Instead he remembered the name Mr. D use to call him by before finally getting Naruto's name right. "My name is Nagato."

It didn't seem to matter though as the princess seemed to fixed her eyes on Jason. For a moment her face literally glowed, blazing with so much anger, Naruto could of sworn he saw a skull beneath her skin.

Spactus, Naruto instantly thought as he reached in his pocket for Uzushio No Oroarashi. It was the closest thing Naruto could compare that look too, as he remembered the zombified humanoid monsters with x-ray like skin that made the skeleton visible.

But at the same time Naruto was confused as he never seen Spacti seemed more—alive—like this lady before. It was as if she were more conscious and aware of who she was. But every spacti Naruto fought before seemed mindless undead monsters as they appear. This lady was more—alive—than the others. Every spacti Naruto fought before seemed mindless undead monsters as they appear.

But then Her highness looked normal again, with a cordial smile and smoothing voice.

"Jason. What an interesting name," she said with a cold stair. "I think we'll have to make a special deal for you. Come, children. Let's go shopping."


A/N: In case some of you forgot, Naruto is immune to charm speak and has experience in fighting spacti, but he doesn't know though is that mortals that are supposed to be dead are coming back into the world of the living. Which is why he assumed Medea is a spactus at first.

Also for a reminder for the next chapter, Naruto already met Ariadne, who had a similar experience with being abandoned by heroes as Medea but with a different ending in 'The Legacy of Athena and Hermes: The Titan's Curse' so even without that skull appearing light show, it be safe bet Ariadne would be crossed off Naruto's list of suspects even after hearing Medea's story of being betrayed by a hero that promised to marry her.
