Disclaimer - I do not own Naruto. Unfortunatly.
Summary - When Naruto falls, Kami and SHinigami give him 3 chances, checkpoints and a cool watch.
They make his life like a game.Timetravel, with a twist.
Chapter 1 - Me Against the world.
It comes to this. One man, only a boy, really, against the remaining 5 of Akatsuki.
The strongest members - Pein, Maradra, Konan, Kabuto and . . .him.
There wasn't going to be some last minute rescue, not this time, there was no-one left.
No-one but him and his opponents.
Naruto sighed, feeling his 17 years as if they were more.
He ducked Kabuto's Chakra Scapels, creating a small army of clones to distract Konan and Pein.
They were more succesfull than even there creator had hoped. Konan's paper tricks folded before
the might of a 'Uzumaki Naruto Nisen Odama Futon:Rasengan Shuriken Renden.
Then there were 4. Naruto was forced to rely on instinct to evade the rapid attacks.
Roll left as 'Tobi' used Amaratsu on the spot he was standing.
Jump over another Scalpel, grabbing the med-nin's arm, snapping it.
Kamiwari away from the sword.
Block a strike from one of the many Peins.
Unleash an unfocused blast of Youki to kill the false Peins.
Even the one that resembled Sakura.
Knee the real Pain in the balls, follow with chakra-enhansed headbut to nose.
2 down.
Jump up, over a sword, create a clone to take the scalpel.
Focus youki to hand, making a claw, to rip out Kabuto's throat.
Now all thats left is Tobi . . . .or Uchiha Maradra and Uchiha Sasuke.
The first and the last of the uchiha line.
Maradra stepped back alowwing Sasuke to stab Naruto with Kusingari.
"Hnn once a dobe, always a dobe."
Later, back at the Akatsuki base, Sasuke noticed something on his Hiate.
A note in Kanji. It said one word, and it made Sasuke livid.
Proof that Naruto could have won, like the scratch was proof he was stronger 5 years ago.
Discusted, he threw the paper to the ground and left to begin the extraction of the final biju.
Later, Maradra would read the note and laugh.
The note read 'Boom'
When Naruto awoke, he saw the world. It looked bad. The whole globe was the Uchiha's playground and none were left alive. They were worse than anything that came before. At least the biju kept there destruction to the elemental countries. This started there, then spread south, to the Grey Continent, then East to the Summoning Continent before finally heading West, to the Fusion Continent. With the power of all the biju, plus 2 pairs of fully matured Makengyou Sharingan, nothing could stand in there way. In a flash, the world vanished and Naruto stood before a pair of figures. The being to the left spoke.
"Greetings, Uzumaki, bearer of the greatest strain I have placed on any."
To the right, the other nodded as Naruto spoke.
"Who are you?"
This time, the figured swapped roles, the one on the left grew silent, as his counterpart spoke.
"I am Kami, and this is the Shinigami. You died when Kyuubi was extracted."
"Then the burden . . ."
Shinigami spoke.
"Was Kyuubi. Yet dispite his influence, you have remained a pure soul. For that, we will help you change history. You have 3 chances, and oppertunity to earn more."
Kami stepped foreward, and presented Naruto with a watch.
"This watch does not tell time, it keeps score. everything you do that is just, will gain you points, while petty actions like vengance will decrease the score. You can spend points on chances or abilities. Every time you re-start we will give you 1 more skill. We will let you keep your memories, but will seal away your techniques until you learn them all over again. When you pass significant events, we will note time a sit is then, essentially saving your progress. When you die, you lose 1 chance. Use all your chances and . . . "
Shinigami produced a sythe from nowhere and held it to Naruto's neck.
"Its game over. What 1 ability do you want to keep from the start? We will send you back to exactly 1 month before your graduation from the academy."
Naruto thought for a moment, then answered.
"I want Kage Bunshin. that can help me to re-learn everything else quicker, plus then I can pass the actual exam, so the teams might be different, opening new oppertunities. . . why am I so smart all of a sudden."
Shinigami and Kami exchanged a look, before Kami spoke again, her voice echoing in Naruto's mind.
"Kyuubi was using chakra to limit the oxygen flow to your brain, making you dumber, he was probably hoping he could make you dumb enough to release him."
A few seconds passed, before Shinigami spoke again.
"I made a deal whith Kyuubi, he will help you in exchange for his memories from each chance.
Also I have opened a contact point between us, so we can keep you informed of things, now sleep.
When you wake Iruka will be shouting at you for sleeping in class and make you practice your
Kamiwari."
Naruto nodded and passed out.
