In the smoke, Naruto and the Almighty engaged in a brutal display of martial arts. Naruto delivered kicks, punches, and jabs in quick succession, while God countered with his own, making it hard for Naruto to land a permanent hit. The Almighty felt his powers slowly having no effect on Naruto due to his 'Adaptation.' He quickly used a different type of magic to counter it, but again, God experienced that same sensation – the feeling of 'Adaptation' working, adjusting to anything thrown at Naruto.

‘The ability to adapt to anything, it's a rare sight to see,’ God mused while blocking another punch and kick from Naruto. ‘I can see all his movements before he even does it, but what is this feeling of my future sight slowly wavering? Is the adaptation ability also working on my future sight?’ God used Lightning Magic, summoning golden magical circles and launching them at Naruto. The bolts of lightning were countered by Naruto's own magic as he summoned a black magic circle that produced purple and dark lightning bolts.

Naruto quickly moved behind God, attempting to slice him with a blade made of darkness. However, in the seconds he saw the move, God turned around and summoned a light sword. Their blades clashed, sending sparks through the battlefield.

‘I’m slowly losing even with the adaptation ability that I use. God has too many forms of magic to use on me; this battle will go on forever,’ Naruto thought. He was getting overwhelmed by God's various types of magic, and his adaptation ability could only go so far. His reserves were slowly getting consumed, and Assault Mode was not a viable option with Naruto throwing around high to god-tier spells in his arsenal.

The battle raged on for more than a few hours, and Naruto was exhausted, but he was not going to lose. Losing here meant death, so he pushed himself to break his limits. With 20 percent of his reserves left, Naruto exited ‘Assault Mode’ as he had adapted to most of God's moves and techniques, deciding not to rely on that mode to survive. Naruto made the decision to conserve his magic and match God in hand-to-hand combat.

The better part of this was spent in a fist battle; Naruto chose this option to conserve his reserves and keep God on his toes, so to speak.

The Almighty jumped back to create distance as he saw his children slowly rise from the rubble and take a fighting stance to aid their father. Naruto, seeing this, released a sigh and readied himself to face the fight of his life. Crimson glowing eyes shifted from person to person as Naruto chanted spells to recover a tiny bit of his reserves.

“Light merged with darkness, darkness that envelops light, consuming life through death, four pillars.”

Naruto gained a little bit of his reserves as he disappeared in a blur and appeared right in front of Rafael, kicking him again in the temple. Michael, as fast as he could, blocked the attack, sending a shiver into his arm. Rafael shouted, "Brother!" only for Michael to raise a hand and reassure him.

Uriel, seeing that Naruto was distracted, kicked him on the side, earning a wince from Naruto. He retaliated quickly, sending a gout of darkness that shaped into a spike, almost piercing Uriel in the process. Gabriel summoned her wings to fly towards Naruto and blasted him with a barrage of light beams, which he managed to dodge at the last second.

'This little family is getting too troublesome for my taste,' Naruto grunted in annoyance as he dodged a flaming sword swing courtesy of Uriel and managed to evade a spin kick delivered in the air by Michael. 'Absolutely amazing.' Naruto grabbed them both and threw them around, but God, along with Rafael and Gabriel, dashed towards him. With their combined effort, they kicked, slashed, and punched Naruto in several places, dropping both Michael and Uriel in the process.

Naruto's regenerative ability was doing its work, but now his regeneration was taking a lot longer. The light punches, kicks, and slashes were not fun to deal with. Naruto grunted again and circled the Angel Faction at speeds even Michael found challenging to keep up with.

He summoned Tri-Darkness and sent a massive bolt of lightning towards them to distract them for a bit.

"Brother Michael," Gabriel shouted from the smoke. Luckily for them, their father made a shield to protect them. However, Gabriel noticed that Rafael and Uriel were missing. They all looked up and saw Naruto completely dominating both Rafael and Uriel in aerial hand-to-hand combat.

The three of them flew into the air, and God kicked Naruto away from his two children. Naruto blocked with his arms, only moving back by 20 meters in the air. Blurring in sight again, Naruto made a beeline for God and kicked him below the ground, creating a massive hole in the earth.

Panting in exhaustion, Naruto only looked at the angels and God with a face of annoyance and impatience. He heard God speak up for the first time during their fight, "Young Lucifer, I'm impressed that you made it this far, facing me and my four archangels in a stalemate. But this is where you draw the line, young one. You cannot win. So, I'm going to give you one last chance to back down and leave in peace. However, if you reject this, I have no choice but to defeat you," God said. The words made Naruto cringe, and pure rage overtook him, clouding his judgment.

Fuming with rage and hatred, Naruto dashed towards the still God. His arm transformed into claws, making a grabbing motion towards God. However, before he could hit, Naruto blacked out.

Naruto Luciferus Lucifer faced defeat in a 1 v 5 match against the angels and God.

What would happen to Naruto now?
