Second Chance; A New Start (джен)

The world Naruto knew was no more; Konoha was completely eradicated, all resistance against Madara’s ambitions stomped out. Only he was left.
But just as Naruto accepts defeat, Kurama steps in. And thus a second chance is presented—a take two. A new start. And, willing or not, Naruto’s future collides with his past.
The shinobi villages will never expect what's coming for them.
