An assembly of ninjas intends to resurrect a formidable demon; when its spirit merges with its body, the planet will be annihilated. The sole method to avert this catastrophe is for Shion, a shrine maiden, to permanently seal it.
Naruto Uzumaki has been assigned to safeguard her, yet one obstacle deters Shion from accepting his aid: she possesses the gift of foreseeing death—and she has seen his impending end. To avoid this destiny, Naruto must distance himself from Shion; nevertheless, resolute, he elects to defy the prediction in order to shield both Shion and the world for everyone's safety, face of the great peril.
