Description:

In book 1, pre-Shippuden Naruto is pulled into the Fourth War as an unwitting participant in an experiment involving time-traveling dimensional jutsu. The culprit is Orochimaru, seeking to build pathways between dimensions and testing the boundaries of existence. Despite the danger, Naruto sees an opportunity: to learn as much as possible about the future, and find a way back to the past.

In book 2, Naruto and his fellow time-travelers have left the future, but changing their own timelines for the better is a tough process. Armed with secondhand knowledge and determination, they work to change their own destinies while finding unexpected camaraderie in one another. And though they escaped the future, Orochimaru may have his own ways to interfere with their best-laid plans.

Book 3 will be a shorter side-story. In it, an unforeseen disaster strikes just as the Third War is about to end. Obito loses the Book of Seals and his connection to the other timelines. The journey to finding the book is extremely risky, but along the way, new connections are formed and old ones are strengthened.

Notes:

This series contains: canon-typical combat violence and mild language; horror elements (suspense/surprise); canon-typical creep factors such as weird body stuff, weird eyeball stuff, undead people, everything that Kabuto and Orochimaru are, plant cell clones, blood, corpses, deaths on-screen as well as off, genjutsu-induced hallucinations, children in combat, war, torture (off-screen, branding), loss of control; canon-typical levels of medical inaccuracy and magic healing; mild stimulant usage on-screen and occasional references to alcohol use (alcohol use on-screen in book 3); depictions of fire and burning (buildings, land, books, skin); incidental self-harm (as in, accidental or motivated by extenuating factors. Includes drawing blood for jutsu.); civil unrest and violence.
I'm a known lover of angst; however, the undercurrent of the series is optimistic, and it does not stray into darkfic territory.
For ships, it's generally very Gen, with a little one-sided ObiNaru crush in book 3 (they are both 13-14 so it is very much G rated, literally middle-grade level, and not (yet) enough for a ship tag).

This series does NOT and NEVER WILL contain: Sexual content; character bashing; f-bombs; or explicit depictions of Danzo. DM for anything I haven't thought of.
