In such a fanfiction, perhaps there would be a spiritual journey for Naruto. As he's dying while sealing the Kyuubi, he could have visions of his past, his friends, and his dreams. He might see the faces of Iruka - sensei who first recognized him, or Hinata's loving looks. This could give him the strength to complete the sealing process. After his death, the village could start to remember and celebrate his life in different ways. Statues could be erected in his honor, and his story could be told to every new ninja trainee as a legend of self - sacrifice.
Sasuke would be devastated. He and Naruto had a complex relationship, and despite their differences, they were like brothers. His reaction might be to isolate himself at first, blaming himself for not being there to protect Naruto. Sakura would be heartbroken. She had deep feelings for Naruto, and his death would be a huge blow. She might become more determined to protect the village in his memory. Kakashi would feel like he failed as a teacher. He always saw Naruto's potential and to lose him would be a great loss for him.
One possible plot development could be Naruto gaining new and extremely powerful abilities. For example, he might be able to use Kyuubi's chakra in more refined ways, like creating unique jutsu that combine his own skills with the raw power of the Kyuubi. This could make him nearly invincible in battles against his enemies. Another aspect could be his relationship with his friends and the village. With the new power, some might fear him while others try to understand and support him. It could also lead to Naruto having to face new and stronger foes who are attracted by his enhanced power.
Perhaps the plot could involve some sort of magic or curse that is causing Naruto to be in this state. The story might then focus on how the Naruto world's medical ninjas try to figure out what's wrong. They could run all sorts of tests and experiments. And there could be a race against time as Naruto's condition worsens.
In this fanfiction, perhaps Naruto's physical abilities are enhanced as the Kyuubi's kit. He might be able to move faster, jump higher, and his strength could be superhuman. Also, his relationship with Sasuke could change. Sasuke might see Naruto as an even greater threat or, on the other hand, an ally he needs to understand better. And Naruto could start to have a different understanding of his own identity and place in the ninja world.
Another possible development is that she gains the ability to transform into different forms not just for combat but also for communication. For example, she could take on a more human - like form to better interact with the villagers, which helps to bridge the gap between her and the humans and also shows her adaptability and evolution as a character.
Naruto could become more confident. If the leotard is a symbol of his connection with the Kyuubi, wearing it might make him feel more in control of his power. He might start to take on more leadership roles in battles or in his village.
Maybe Naruto gains new insights into the nature of chakra. The Kyuubi's chakra is very different from his own, and through the merge, he could understand how to manipulate chakra in ways he hadn't considered. This could lead to him teaching others new ways of using chakra as well.
One possible storyline could be that in a major battle against a powerful enemy, Hinata jumps in front of Naruto to take a fatal blow meant for him. This could lead to Naruto going into a rage and unlocking a new level of power in his grief. He might then defeat the enemy single - handedly, vowing to carry on Hinata's will.
Another plot development could be the impact on the other characters in the Naruto universe. The presence of a fem Kyuubi might change how characters like Sasuke view Naruto. They could be more intrigued or even more hostile depending on how they perceive the new relationship between Naruto and the fem Kyuubi. Also, the village elders might react differently, perhaps with more fear or more acceptance, which would then influence the overall political and social situation in the village.
A possible plot development might involve Naruto exploring his own past to understand how he became the Kyuubi's father. He could discover secrets about his own family or ancient jutsu that led to this situation. Along the way, he might face opposition from those who don't want this relationship to be known or who fear the implications it could have on the balance of power in the ninja world. This would lead to many conflicts and challenges for Naruto to overcome in the fanfiction.
