Hey guys and girls.

Welcome to the new chapter of God Of The Elemental Nations.

So the last place we left off was where Naruto had gained his first ever spell. And named it Divine Reckoning. After expending a large amount of his godly power to use the spell, Naruto finds himself exhausted.

Hades then instructs his one daughter, Kuroka to take Naruto to his room. Doing as her father said, Kuroka takes Naruto to his room. But when she arrives at his room and places him on the bed, she comes clean about her past life and what she had been through.

Understanding her pain, Naruto suggests to her that she no longer act like a slut who is just out to spread her legs, and have modesty as some men prefer a woman who knows how to take care of herself. And not some whore from the side of the road.

Surprised at how he acted towards her, Kuroka falls in love with Naruto and gives him a kiss as a result.

And how many times must I say it? The Devil's Blade is a weapon I created. It doesn't belong anywhere.

What will he be doing now?

Find out.

Enjoy.

Disclaimers: I own nothing.

Chapter 9: The Legendary Swordsman.

It had only been a few short days since Naruto went to be trained with Hades. And only a few short days after that to literally have all 5 daughters of Hades fall in love with him. Each refusing to back down from one another which also resulted in a few fights between the ladies.

Hades was happy that his daughters found someone to love. But he was unhappy that it had to be with the same man. But, nevertheless, he accepted this and chose to live with it. Even going to lengths to make sure Naruto knew when to train, and when to chill out.

Naruto had learnt so much in the last few days. So much that it was scary that he was able to get such a strong grasp of his powers. Not only a strong grasp but also to master it so quickly. It was astonishing really.

But now it was time for Naruto to face a test that would prove just how strong he had become. Hades had prepared a series of tests that Naruto would choose to take on to prove how strong he truly had become.

With the tests now ready, the god of the Underworld got up from his desk and headed outside to find Naruto practicing with Kurikara. Blue flames lapped against his skin as she swung the sword with skill and ability. Erza had taught him well, even though her method was to beat the living shit out of her opponent, training or not.

Spotting Hades in the corner of his eye, Naruto stopped training. Expertly sliding Kurikara back into the scabbard, the flames left Naruto's body.

"Naruto, the time has come for you to take on a test. This test will prove to you just how much you have grown." stated Hades.

"I understand, what am I up against?" asked Naruto.

"I've prepared a series of tests for you. Of course, you can only take one. Choose any. Choose to test your skills of godly power by surviving for 2 days in the Inferno. The souls of the damned will rip you to shreds should your guard fall for a split second. Then there is one where you verse myself. I will bestow on you a powerful spell that you can use for your own use. Of course, those are just two. I've prepared many for you. So, choose." instructed Hades with Naruto beginning to think.

But as he was thinking, he heard a massive roar in the distance and turned his head to find the mighty Cerberus walking about before laying down for a little sleep. Seeing the two powerful sword in the distance behind the massive three headed Hell hound, Naruto found his challenge.

"I choose to take on the Cerberus for the ownership of Yamato and The Devil's Blade." stated Naruto thrusting a hand to be pointing at the two weapons.

Surprised and shocked by the sudden choice, Hades stood there petrified at what he just heard.

"Okay, I understand that you want power to protect, but the Cerberus will eat you alive if you're not careful. Are you absolutely sure you want to do that even with the fact that you could be killed in a heartbeat?" asked Hades worried about Naruto's safety.

"I'm certain." said Naruto not even hestitating in his answer.

"Okay, I wish you luck." said Hades waving his hand as a Griffon landed before Naruto. "This Griffon will take you."

"Thanks." said Naruto climbing onto the Griffon with the beast taking off and heading to the area where the two legendary weapons rested. Awaiting their next master.

The Griffon arrived there rather fast with Naruto climbing off the beast. Looking to his sides, he took note of the countless bones that littered the grounds. Ash and burnt rocks that still flamed scattered and dotted the landscape. Gulping down the growing lump in his throat, Naruto's hand moved to Kurikara, ready to draw.

But the Cerberus heard the clinking of the steel and picked its heads up to look at Naruto. Their red evil look was paralysing to the soul, Naruto felt like he had just met his end after looking into the eyes of the beast.

Drawing Kurikara with the blue flame igniting once more, Naruto got ready.

"Those weapons are mine, mutt." snarled Naruto before the two opposing forces charged at one another.

With the girls.

All 5 of the daughters of Hades were seen busy preparing something for Naruto. Cinder was making her favourite tea, Seilah was busy preparing something savoury, Raven was picking out her favourite sweets, Blake was getting her favourite books while her twin, Kuroka, was setting up some of her favourite cookies.

All 5 of them were completely head over heels for the young man. They never wouldv'e guessed he'd steal their hearts like this. But it was what they wanted. Even though it was with the same man, they didn't care. Polygamies were a thing obviously. So why not get a slice of the action?

"I think darling will like the tea I made for him." chirped Cinder.

"Bullshit, he'll like the stuff I made for him." hissed Kuroka.

And soon began another debate on whose gifts Naruto would enjoy. After 5 or so minutes, they stopped their little bout and headed to see Naruto in the courtyard. But when they got there, Naruto was no where to be found, other than their father Hades who was staring into the distance.

"Where's Naruto?" asked Seilah.

"Doing his final test." was Hades' only reply.

"What test did he choose?" asked Raven.

As if on cue, a massive pillar of blue fire shot up in the distance along with a powerful and horrific cry from the Cerberus that guarded the weapons. Piecing two and two together, they soon realised the test Naruto took.

"You've got to be kidding me." was Kuroka's only use of words as the items on the tray in her hands came crashing to the ground.

"Yes, Naruto has chosen to take the the weapons." responded Hades.

"We have to help him." stated Cinder breaking into a sprint only to be caught and stopped by Hades.

"Don't." he ordered.

"But-"

"No buts. This is his choice. He wanted to have the weapons, so he must fight for them." was Hades' only reply.

"But father." said Blake.

"I know all of you love him. But you must respect his wishes. If its any help, if Naruto is about to die, I will teleport him here and forbid him from attempting to get the weapons a second time." asserted Hades.

Back with Naruto.

The battle had been dragging on longer than expected. Naruto was fatigued. His breathing was deep and quick. His muscles were tired and needed rest. He felt like passing out, he wanted to lie down and sleep. But he couldn't as he knew that if he did, the Cerberus would kill him instantly.

His power was also running low and the blue flames that were burning on his body were dimmed and weak. He even felt weaker with godly power. He had nothing left. Several Divine Reckoning spells ate at his power like there was no tomorrow but it did manage to slow down the three headed Hell Hound. Just enough to have the beast also fatigued as much as Naruto was.

Slowly sheathing the sword, Naruto got ready for a final attack. An attack that would probably end this once and for all. The Cerberus seemed to have the same goal as well.

"Those weapons are mine. Even if it kills me." growled Naruto as he charged as fast as he could.

His body refusing such high speeds but Naruto refused to give into the pain he was in. The Cerberus too launched at Naruto, the two aiming to end this here and now. At the last second, Naruto drew Kurikara once more, the blue flames sparking to life on Naruto's body and heating up the air around him.

The Cerberus swung a paw to finish off Naruto then and there, hopefully for good. But Naruto dodged the attack and connected the edge of the blade with the Cerberus' middle head. Cleaving through it like it was made of nothing. Blood sprayed everywhere as Naruto was seen crouched behind the Cerberus. Slowly getting to his feet, he flicked the blood of the sword and sheathed it.

When the click was heard, the Cerberus dropped to the floor. Unmoving and staying perfectly still.

Looking to the beast, Naruto turned to the two weapons. Waiting patiently for their new master. Taking a step towards the weapons, Naruto dropped to a knee, his breath leaving his body as sweat beaded down his brow along with some blood flowing from his mid section.

Lifting his shirt, he found a 6 inch long slash mark. Clicking his tongue as he slowly got to his feet, applying pressure to the wound, he walked to the weapons. Yamato and The Devil's Blade. They were finally his, they were his to command.

Finally reaching the two weapons, Naruto placed his hands on them. His left on Yamato and his right on The Devil's Blade. After so many years of being neglected and no longer being used. They finally had a new master. And this master was in the form of Naruto. A meer person who went from 1/4 god to becoming 3/4 god. This had never happened in the history of Olympus. Until now.

Placing both the new weapons along side Kurikara at his left hip, Naruto breathed a sigh of content and relief. He had never fought that hard in his life. But it was well worth it. But his train of thought ended when a low growling sound was heard behind him.

Turning his head, he looked to find the Cerberus getting back up. And also regain the head it lost.

How the bloody hell was that even possible? Oh...that's right. Naruto read up somewhere that in order to kill a Cerberus you had to remove all three heads. Taking out one just stuns and knocks it out for a few minutes.

Getting ready to attack the beast once more, Naruto moved his hand to his now new weapons. Specifically the elegant blade, Yamato. But that didn't happen as Naruto watched the Cerberus lower its heads as a sign of submission. Along with the Cerberus also lowering itself as a sign of adressing someone of royalty.

At that moment, Hades along with his daughters appeared in a burst of flames to the singular spot the two fought. Finding the Cerberus bowing to Naruto like that along with Naruto obtaining both weapons, Hades stood there in awe.

"Of all my years, I have never seen anything like what you just did." he said with Cinder running into Naruto's arms and crying into his chest, thanking him that he wasn't dead. "Then there's also the Cerberus..."

"What do you mean?" asked Naruto.

"This has never happened before. The Cerberus has recognized you as a person of amazing power. And has submitted to your power. Tell me, were you hit?" asked Hades.

"I was struck by one of its claws when I chopped off one of its heads." said Naruto raising the shirt to show the wound.

"Then it has been decided. The Cerberus has chosen you to be its master. You will also be able to summon the Cerberus to aid you in battle. That wound is a sign that the Cerberus has chosen you." stated Hades.

"I am now the master of the guard dog of Hell?" was all Naruto could say in awe.

"Yes, well done." congradulated Hades.

And scene.

So Naruto has taken a challenge and this challenge was him versing the Cerberus for the weapons, Yamato and The Devil's Blade. With these weapons now Naruto's own, it can only mean that Naruto is now the most powerfulest person that ever lived.

Not only that, but he is also the new master of the Cerberus. The legendary monster that guards the gates of Hell. What a turn of events eh?
