Author Notes: Hello! I've been reading through the reviews a week ago and a couple of minutes ago just to make sure if I'm not mistaken. So far the reviews pleased me and I appreciate your supports for this new version. However, the only problem here is the grammar mistakes and spelling mistakes. I've looked at the traffic graph to see a lot of readers are from Americas which by any means I followed after Australian English version and sometimes the UK. Nonetheless, there are a couple of things I still don't have a hang of, for example despite reading some dictionary and putting them on notes I would sometimes forget those words I learned and was forced to look at the dictionary or electric dictionary. Aside from the spelling mistakes, there are the structures and grammar mistakes which I'm trying to fix the last few days. But I think I made a slow progress? I would like to hear your opinions and maybe some tips for learning English better and faster (cause I'm a veterinary student, ya know?). Anyway once again I would like to thank everyone that had dropped in and read my stories (yes that includes the other as well), you reviewers are the sole reason why I continued updating my stories. If you're a fan of my works or especially this one and wanted to help, PM me or dropped by a review so I can contact you. If I ignored a review or reviewers is because I didn't have the time to send you a reply. Well enough with this long-ass author note, without any further ado let's get on with the second chapter.
Summary: He birthed life, and he brought upon death. He was the primordial that brought destruction and yet life around him. Yet he was betrayed, as the darkness consumed him; he left everything behind him. The saviour of the world was brought into Tartarus by Kronos as the forgotten past returned. A new purpose was given; to either end or start a new Olympus.
Chapter 2:

Battle of Deities
I do not own Naruto or Percy Jackson and Olympians. All rights belong to the respective owners of both shows.
A vortex of waters collided with a torrent of fires as the earth reverberates sending a few chunk of earth flying to the air as the barren wasteland covered in specks of dust. Both techniques were fighting against each other trying to dominate one another, despite the element attribute water being stronger than fire, the vortex of waters were slowly being pushed back until it was fully being consumed by the torrents of fires forcing him to jumped away from where he stood as the deity watched the torrents of flames dissipated.
Poseidon wore a tattered with a few holes and burned battle robe. The god of the sea has black hair, a few bits of black haired around his jawline, a deep tan, and sea-green eyes that were surrounded by sun-crinkles. His hands are also scarred like an old-time fisherman's whilst gripping his weapon the trident on his right hand.
The storm bringer stood a thousand meters away from where his opponent stood whilst eyes glowering at the deity across him which the titan standing across him has his golden flames eyes glared at the sons of Kronos as the wind started to pick around them.
"Old man, Hyperion." Poseidon greeted with a smirk visible on his face which later on scrunched into a frowned as the Titan across him simply glare at him.
Well, that didn't work.
The Lord of the East, or also known as Titan of Light, Fire, and Power and was known as Kronos Lite took a single step forward which quickly alerted the Earthshaker as a blur of white flew towards him as a flash of reddish white and blue appeared all across the land as Trident met gold sword causing a spark of metal to flew in the air as they glare at each other with ground beneath them shattered from the power they possessed.
"You might be powerful and young, but compared to us; we're stronger!" The Lord of the East roared as a surprising blind white light emitted from the golden flame eyes, momentarily blinded the surprised Poseidon.
Hyperion rushed into action as he planted his feet on Poseidon's abdomen, caused him coughed in pain and was forced to release the grip on the trident as he found himself sailing through the air; and flew into a hill, completely obliterate it. The Lord of the East wasn't done as he thrust his hand forward and a spear made of pure flames extended from where he stood as it tore through the Earthshaker stomach.
'Shit!' Poseidon gasped in pain as he spat out his blood to the ground and later on grimaced in pain though the wounds slowly healed themselves as his vision returned. But before he could react a reddish blurred appeared in front of him as a flammable fist made its way down to his nose.
'Ugh…' He mentally groaned in pain but it didn't stop there as Hyperion bellowed more punches as flesh hit flesh could be heard leaving a burn mark behind as the impact of the punches tore the earth wall behind them.
Poseidon was on the ground withering in pain as steams covering his entire body, quickly healing him from the wounds he received by the Titan of Light, Fire and Power; leaving nothing behind but bruises.
Despite he was healed, the deity found himself unable to moves as his body become numb, and like a rock, he just had his back planted on the ground whilst his eyes glaring at the sun above him.
The Earthshaker took a few of deep breaths, settling down his heavy breathing for a couple of minutes though his mental state wasn't the same as his physical state as the storm bringer found the vision of his eyes distorting.
It has been a week since the battle has gone out between the two. It wasn't supposed to be like this, at least he wasn't expecting the presence of the Lord of the East to be here and when Hyperion's sight met his, the raging battle between the two started.
The other gods and goddesses probably sense the battle between the two but likewise, they couldn't intervene at least not yet, especially with Zeus somewhere out there in search for their ace card.
The sound of footsteps broke him out of his thought as Poseidon ears picked the sounds of the footsteps getting closer and closer to the ground beneath him shook.
"Foolish God." Hyperion voice thundered as the tone was hollowed, and cold, sending a chill running down to his spine until a hand grasped around his neck as he was forced to rise from the ground.
"Do you really think you could defeat me all by yourself!?"
Poseidon winced in pain, as he could feel the burned from his neck. A weakly smile appeared on the Earthshaker face.
"Fire attributes is weak against water, old man." Poseidon managed to muffle out as he sends Kronos Lite a smirk and spat his ichor blood out of his mouth only to be boiled by the flames of Hyperion.
The Titan of Light, Fire and Power glared at the deity in his mercy as the gripped tightened leaving him to cough out numerously. The burning flames of the titan's hand slowly eating the flesh of his skin.
"This will be your end." The Titan told him as Poseidon glare at the Lord of the East. A spear made of light attributes flashed in the eyes of Poseidon as the Earthshaker realised the troubled soon head for him as he tried to break through but to no avail, all he did was barely pushing the Titan a couple centimetres from where they stood.
"N…not if I finished you first!" Poseidon rasped out in pain with a determination look on the deity as the water in the atmosphere dropped above them causing Hyperion to release the grip on his nephew and jumped a couple meters away, just in the nick of time to dodged the bucket of water.
Poseidon sighed in relieve as he used that moment to let the water restored his loss of energy though despite that he knew there will be no more time and by the look of things, Hyperion won't let him go that easily.
"Your first mistake was fighting against me, all alone." A voice said from beside him as the Earthshaker rose his hand to block his fist as it was aimed towards his face. The impact behind that caused the ground beneath them to shake and obliterated it in a matter of second. Despite being stronger in term of strength, Poseidon and Hyperion gauged each other in a close combat battle mixed with tornadoes, water, flames and light.
'My chance!' Poseidon told himself as he sends a kick sailed towards the lower jaw of Hyperion sending him upward into the atmosphere though instead of continuing to engage the Titan in close combat the god of the sea used that chance to teleport away.
At least that's what he planned until the ground where he stood exploded sending him upward as gold flame eyes met sea-green eyes. Using the momentum, Hyperion created the spear of light once more as he thrust his hand towards the widened Poseidon as the later cursed himself for letting his guard down for that span of moments.
Time seems to slow down as Poseidon watched the spear aimed towards his heart.
Then everything become a flashed mix of yellow and white as Poseidon was flung to the ground with the Titan flew across the air as he shattered through the hills with his body slumped back, down to the ground in surprise.
Especially seeing him of all people!
Poseidon didn't know what was happening; one second he watched himself fall into his own oblivion and then the next thing he knew he has his eyes widened in surprised to see him of all people, smiling brightly at him.
"Hello, there brother," Zeus said, he was crouching on the ground beside the lost in thought Poseidon and with a worried look on his face that snapped the god of the sea from his own thought, after hearing his voice as a soft chuckled escaped from his lips.
"It's been what? Three years since you searched for him? Look at you…you looked more like an idiot than the arrogant and dramatic god I remembered."
"Two actually." Zeus scowled as he sends Poseidon a glare.
"Whatever…" Poseidon shrugged his shoulders as he slumped back down to the ground with a tired smile on his face. "So…did you find him? I expected you to fail of all people and might see you die somewhere out there for being too foolish in challenging the creator of life and the bringer of death himself."
Zeus growled as the lightning above them boomed.
"That's more like it."
"Shut up, and yes I found him!" Zeus snarled back as he rose from his crouching position. "Was so glad I'm alive…no wonder the fate ordered me…probably because they have enough of my dramatic self."
"That's true…" Poseidon smirked as lightning flashed above them. "Whatever, let's get out of here."
"Wait…we'll have to find Naruto first."
"Oh…I thought you were lying there for a second, brother." The Earthshaker chuckled, ignoring the glare the deity got from the god of dramatic. After helping Poseidon stand on his feet both share each other a look before nodding their heads as both divines being disappeared in a strike of thunder before appearing on the scene a couple meters away from Naruto and the fallen Hyperion.
The later was struggling to stand up as the deity has his eyes widened in surprised to see the origin of life standing across him with a smile of his own as he stared down at the Titan of Light also the father of Helios, Eos and Selene.
The later send a shiver running down to his spine, he did meet her twice in the middle of the night, talking to him about the current worlds' problems and asking him which sides he was on. Of course, like her, he remained a neutral one at least until today that is.
Whilst their other meeting was more personal and it should be kept that way.
"Father."
'Father!?' Poseidon and Zeus questioned out loud in their thought, giving each other a glance though saying nothing as they watched a battle that soon falls between the Primordial being and the Lord of the East.
"Hello there Hyperion; Titan of the Light, Fire and Strength." Naruto returned the greetings with a smile. "Or should I call you Kronos's dog?"
Hyperion scowled but didn't say anything as the Titan carefully made his moves, though by now he was merely staring at Naruto before the gods standing behind him. "It is an honour to meet you, my lord. However, I am surprised you turned down our offer."
"Well…to be honest" Naruto paused for a moment before fear struck his eyes causing the titan to fall down to his knees with the flames around on his body weakened. "I don't really care if the gods died…nor if the Titans lose." He chuckled as he sends a glance at Zeus. "However your men are foolish enough to take me down. I spared them no second chance, unfortunately, Zeus here doesn't share their mind which surprised me knowing who his father is."
Poseidon merely chuckled which resulted from Zeus to growl and cheeks burning red from pure embarrassment.
"I see…that is unfortunate for us." Hyperion then bowed down; fighting Naruto alone here would be terrible mistake and beside…the primordial did made his first move; something that attacked his mental state…was it just pure killing intent?
He never knew.
"Leave, and tell that master of yours' I'm here to end this war," Naruto growled as Hyperion nodded his head. "Killing each other would never be a problem to me…but to bring humanity in this…I should've killed Gaia and Ouranos the moment I set my eyes on you lots'…" he mumbled with a tired sighed though the three of them heard him. "Spread the news that the end of an era is coming."
"You sounded arrogant, father."
"I'm not your father," Naruto grumble though he later smirked in return as he used a fraction of his power which caused the earth to tremble than the land around them shifted in directions. The sun blazing brightly above them suddenly had its' light blocked by the body of the moon which startled the Titan and Titaness watching over them whilst a storm brewing around them with a few of tornadoes surrounding them.
"It is not arrogance rather the truth; your existence was a mistake."
'Such power…' Poseidon, Zeus and Hyperion thought in nothing but pure amazement though another part of them found fear struck deep in their heart.
Hyperion could only nod as he disappeared in a burst of flame leaving nothing behind but a trail of smoke. The Titanomachy had brewed for more than a century at best, with neither side giving up in conquering the earth and ending each other's' life for freedom from fear, paranoia and vengeance. It was a battle neither side wouldn't want to lose but today Hyperion learned; in the end, the Titans never stood a chance.
Author Notes: That summed up with the second chapter! How was it? Is it good or bad? Tell me of your opinions below in the review section! The pairing for this story is strictly a Naruto x Artemis though since most of you had read the original, I dropped a hint; Naruto despises Artemis more than anything in the world. Welp, no more spoiler. Anyway, I really enjoyed writing this chapter and showed how the gods and goddesses reacted. The third chapter we will have the meeting between the gods and goddesses and Artemis's reaction. More of Naruto prowess will be shown in the next chapter or the fourth chapter (depends on where I stopped). Once again, if someone wanted to help me beta-reading this story (just this!) then don't hesitate to drop by a PM or a review and we will work things out.
Thanks, and make sure to keep the reviews coming!
After this: Legend among Yokai, The Strongest Human Revised and Shinobi of Remnant.
