God of the Multiverse: A Shinobi's Destiny

"Don't worry, guys. I won't die to a couple of weak trash like them." A lean Tawny Brown man said as he patted the heads of the few dozen children around him.

"We know dad, but still..." A pink haired little boy grumbled as he wrapped his arms around his father's left leg.

"Shinku. Please be careful. The council of Leah are well known for their tricks and underhanded tactics." The three eyed goddess, Kaguya, spoke with worry filling her voice.

"Don't worry, I'll go out there and kick some ass, and ensure those guys can't come after you all." Shinku Shihouin said with a confident smirk. The man was standing at 200 cm, dressed in only long black pants that cuffed at his ankles, black socks, and black sandle clogs. His chest was bare, exposing his well-defined abdomen, triceps, and biceps. His forearms were covered by black and red wrist guards. And on his left hip was a sheethed Katana.

Shinku was also sporting crimson red irises and a Jet Black afro, with a couple of bangs on the right side of his brow.

Leaving everyone he loved behind and sealing off the dimension they were in, Shinku let out an exhausted sigh from the fake smiles he had to constantly give. "Come on, Shinku. You're their hero. They look to you to save 'em. Sigh. Why did I become a hero again?"

Shinku Shihouin stood on the edge of the multiverse, looking out into the infinite expanse. He closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and focused his divine energy, ready for what lay ahead. His opponents were strong, each one a god in their own right, but Shinku was ready for the challenge.

Suddenly, he heard a voice from behind him. "Well, well, well, if it isn't the great Shinku Shihouin," the voice said with a hint of malice.

Shinku turned around to face his opponents. They stood before him, each one looking more menacing than the last. He recognized them from their appearance alnoe and knew that this would be a fight for the ages.

"So, you've finally stopped running with your tail between your legs and chose to face us," said Taichu, the Sword God. "We've been waiting for the day we could fucking kill you and your family."

Shinku didn't respond, instead opting to unsheathe his black-bladed katana from its scabbard. "Let's get this over with, i'd rather be at home right now than facing a bunch of cock sucking gods," he said, his voice calm and collected but with a hint of mockery as his entire sclera turned crimson red and several thine black rings filled his eyes starting from around his pupils.

Oda, the Demon God, charged at Shinku with both of his heads, roaring with anger. Shinku dodged to the side, then lunged forward with a thrust of his katana. The blade struck true, slicing through Oda's obsidian skin.

But Oda was not deterred. He swung one of his massive fists at Shinku, who barely managed to dodge in time. The force of the blow sent Shinku tumbling across the battlefield.

As Shinku got to his feet, he heard a whistling sound in the air. He turned around to see Eunhyuk, the Spear God, throwing his spear at him. Shinku managed to block the spear with the flat side of his katana, but the force of the impact sent him stumbling backward.

Hydra, the Dragon God, seized the opportunity and launched herself at Shinku. She flew through the air, her snakes hissing and spitting venom. Shinku barely managed to dodge her attack, but the tip of her tail grazed his arm, leaving a nasty wound.

Thor, the Thunder God, followed closely behind Hydra. He swung his hammer at Shinku, who ducked under the blow and sliced at Thor's leg. The blade of his katana bounced off Thor's metal armor, leaving only a scratch.

"Tch."

Meanwhile, Kali-Ma, the Beast God, attacked Shinku with her sharp claws. Shinku managed to block her attacks with his katana, but he was slowly being pushed back by her relentless assault.

Jashin, the Death God, was content to stand back and observe the battle. He watched as Shinku fought against his fellow gods, waiting for the right moment to strike.

Belmod, the god of destruction, was the only one who seemed to be enjoying himself. He cackled as he conjured up massive spheres of destruction that rocked the battlefield.

Shinku was in trouble. He was fighting against eight gods, each one as powerful as him. He needed to think of a way to turn the tide of the battle.

As he dodged another attack from Oda, he saw an opening. Eunhyuk had left himself wide open, and Shinku seized the opportunity. He charged forward, the speed of his movements creating afterimages.

Eunhyuk tried to defend himself with his spear, but Shinku was too fast. He sliced through the spear with his katana, then plunged the blade into Eunhyuk's chest.

Eunhyuk fell to the ground, his eyes wide as Shinku's blade began absorbing his divine soul when an explosion erupted from within the god, blasting Shinku back.

Knowing he lost, Eunhyuk forcefully destroyed his own soul, so Shinku's Katana could not absorb it whole.

As Shinku regains his footing in the vacuum of space, he scans his surroundings and assesses the remaining seven gods, his mind racing as he calculates his next move. The gods close in, their powers pulsating around them, ready to attack.

Kali-Ma, the Beast God, charges at Shinku with lightning-fast reflexes. Shinku blocks her attack with his katana, the sound of metal clashing ringing through the void. Kali-Ma snarls and leaps back, circling around Shinku like a predator.

"You fight well, god slayer," Kali-Ma growls, baring her teeth. "But I will not let you defeat us!"

Shinku narrows his eyes and readies himself for her next attack. Meanwhile, Taichu, the Sword god, unsheathes his blade and rushes toward Shinku from the side. Shinku barely dodges his attack, narrowly avoiding a fatal strike.

"You're faster than I expected," Taichu says, his voice calm and collected. "But speed alone won't be enough to defeat us."

Shinku grunts in response and shifts his attention to Hydra, the Dragon god. She flies above them, unleashing a barrage of fire and ice from her breath and tail. Shinku deflects the attack with his chakra, creating a barrier around him.

"Pathetic," Thor, the Thunder god, scoffs as he charges his hammer with electricity. "A true god should be able to handle our attacks without resorting to such tricks."

Shinku grits his teeth, knowing that Thor's words hold some truth. He takes a deep breath and channels his divine power, feeling it surge through his veins. He glares at Thor, who hurls his hammer at Shinku with incredible force.

Shinku slashes his katana through the air, slicing the hammer in half. The thunderous boom echoes through space, as Shinku retaliates with a powerful blast of chakra. Thor barely manages to dodge the attack, his lightning-fast reflexes saving him from certain death.

"You're not the only one with divine power," Belmod, the destruction god, cackles, as he unleashes a wave of destruction that engulfs Shinku.

Shinku manages to dodge most of the attack, but the force still sends him hurtling backward. He collides with Oda, the Demon god, who takes advantage of the situation and slams Shinku with his massive fists.

Shinku grunts in pain, feeling his ribs crack under the pressure. He retaliates with a swift kick to Oda's abdomen, sending him reeling. He then turns his attention to Jashin, the Death god, who unleashes a barrage of black rods from his back.

Shinku dodges the rods with ease, but Jashin surprises him with a sudden teleportation, appearing behind him and thrusting his hand through Shinku's back.

Shinku gasps in pain, feeling his life force slowly draining away. He struggles to maintain his consciousness, but he refuses to give up.

"Even if you beat me in this battle, you already lost the war. My will will always live on, and one day, I'll be back." Shinku growls, his voice strained.

He channels all of his remaining divine power and chakra, unleashing a massive blast that engulfs all of the gods in its path. The explosion is so powerful that it sends shockwaves throughout space, tearing it, as Shinku falls into unconsciousness.

When he awakens, he finds himself lying on a desolate planet, his body battered and bruised. He sees the other gods lying unconscious nearby, defeated.

Shinku struggles to stand up and falls onto his butt.

"Ugh." Shinku groaned as he tried to circulate his chakra only to find it was completely gone. Immediately, he did the same with his divine power and found his Divinity was gone as well.

"Sigh. It's fine, I can easily restore my divine power, but that shit'll hurt. At least my wives and kids aren't here to see me like this." Shinku struggled to roll onto his side and spat out golden blood.

"Wow. 5 minutes in, and all of you are already half dead and lost your divine powers." A woman's monotone voice sounded from behind Shinku, and the man could only roll his eyes.

"Not now, Nobu. Unless you're willing to share some of the divinity you absorbed leave me the fuck alone." Shinku grumbled as the woman stepped over his figure and squated down before him.

Nobu's a raven black haired Loli with violet eyes. She was dressed in a short dark purple dress with a red jacket and black leggings.

"Hmm. I was gonna help, but now..." Nobu flicked Shinku's forehead, knocking the man out.

"You're lucky I love you." Nobu mumbled under her breath as she lifted Shinku and the seven unconscious gods up with telekinesis to carry them all to some kind of shelter where she could safely help Shinku.

Thunder boomed throughout the desolate planet's green sky just before it split and formed a glass like rift.

"Damn. Who fucked up the multiverse."
