Whatever it takes

by NotsoHappyboi

First writen on AO3. A second chance presents itself. A post-war Naruto gets the chance to save everyone he cares about from dying at the hands of Uchiha Madara. He is sent back in time to his 3 year old self in a last desperate attempt to defy fate and save those closest to him. This time, he tells himself. This time, I will not fail. I will save you all. Whatever it takes.

20. Operation Mangekyou Part 2
