The fated battle at the Valley of the End feels like only yesterday, yet Uchiha Sasuke, burdened by darkness, finds himself thrown back to the eve of his clan's annihilation by a twist of fate—a god's game.
This time, the tragedy will not repeat. His brother Itachi's self-sacrifice? Rendered meaningless. His best friend Naruto's lonely childhood? Rewritten.
"Shisui," he vows, "your eyes... I will protect them!" "Danzo," he declares to the shadows, "the evil you've buried deep within Root? I will drag it into the light myself!"
Armed with the resolve and power forged in a future he refuses to let happen again, Sasuke is determined to overturn every injustice, to erase every regret with his own hands.
The fate of the Uchiha, the future of Konoha... this time, Sasuke holds the pen.
