The story could also involve Orochimaru's redemption arc. He could start by making amends with the Hidden Leaf Village. Use his skills in espionage and intelligence - gathering to help the village in times of need. And perhaps, along the way, he would discover a new purpose in life that doesn't involve power - mongering and unethical experiments.
Well, in a fanfiction where Naruto is adopted by Orochimaru, Naruto's ninja way would be severely distorted. Orochimaru is a power - hungry and somewhat amoral character. He would influence Naruto's values. Naruto might start to believe that the ends justify the means when it comes to achieving power. His training would be much harsher and more dangerous compared to what he had in Konoha. He may even be sent on some morally ambiguous missions. And his growth as a ninja would be a strange blend of Orochimaru's ruthlessness and his own natural tenacity.
In such a fanfiction, Naruto might become more ruthless. Orochimaru is known for his dark and self - serving ways. He could train Naruto in more aggressive and unorthodox techniques. Naruto might also develop a more solitary and distrustful nature, different from his original friendly self.
If an OC was reborn as Orochimaru, they might not attack Konoha in the same way. They could try to form an alliance instead, seeing the potential in working with the village rather than against it. This would change the whole dynamic of the early Naruto story, especially Sasuke's journey as he might not be so hell - bent on revenge against Konoha if Orochimaru wasn't an enemy.
It would be really strange. Naruto is known for his positive and sunny personality, while Orochimaru is dark and devious. A fanfiction might explore how Naruto would struggle with his father's bad reputation. Maybe Naruto would try to change Orochimaru's ways or be conflicted about his own identity.
He might be a much darker and more power - hungry Naruto. Orochimaru's influence could lead Naruto to focus more on individual strength and less on the bonds of friendship. He could be more willing to use underhanded methods to achieve his goals, unlike the Naruto we know who values fairness and camaraderie.
A 'naruto is orochimaru's pet' fanfiction would be quite outlandish. Orochimaru, being the power - hungry and somewhat sadistic character he is, might keep Naruto in some sort of confinement. Naruto, on the other hand, would be constantly looking for a way to break free. The fanfiction could potentially involve Orochimaru trying to use Naruto's unique abilities, like the Nine - Tails' power, for his own purposes. It would be a dark and twisted take on the Naruto story, with Naruto having to endure a lot of psychological and physical abuse perhaps. But again, this is a very unorthodox idea that goes against the basic nature of Naruto as a character in the original series.
Well, it could be really wild. Maybe Harry, through some time - travel mishap, ends up in a world where he has the essence or some of the powers of Orochimaru. He might be able to use snake - like abilities, like Orochimaru can in Naruto. And the story could be about him trying to figure out how to get back to his own world while dealing with these new and strange powers.
Well, the plot could involve Naruto having to adjust to life as a girl. He might struggle with new social expectations, like how people treat him differently. Also, his relationships with friends like Sasuke and Sakura could change. Sasuke might be more protective, and Sakura might see him as a sister figure now. And Orochimaru could have some ulterior motive for this transformation, perhaps to use Naruto in a new way for his own evil plans.
A fanfiction with Sakura as Orochimaru's sister could have multiple plotlines. Firstly, it could explore how Sakura was separated from Orochimaru at a young age and raised in Konoha. Her medical skills could be a result of Orochimaru's scientific influence in a hidden way. Secondly, there could be a power struggle within Orochimaru's organization as some members might see Sakura as a threat or an opportunity. Thirdly, Sakura could be on a journey to understand her brother better and in the process, change the way the Naruto world views Orochimaru. There would be a lot of character development and moral dilemmas in such a fanfiction.
It would be really strange. Sakura might be more into dark arts or have a more devious side. Her medical skills could take a different turn, perhaps more experimental.
