Well, he might lead them with his unwavering determination. Naruto has always been a fighter with great resolve in the original series. So in this fanfiction, he could use that to inspire the Saints, set clear goals for them, and be the first one to jump into any difficult situation.
In this fanfiction scenario, Naruto as the leader of the Saints would likely lead with his charisma. He has a way of making people believe in him. He'd communicate his vision for the Saints clearly, whether it's about protecting a certain place or achieving a grand goal. He'd also be open - minded and listen to the ideas of the other Saints members, making them feel valued. This would create a positive and collaborative environment within the group, which is crucial for effective leadership.
One challenge could be getting the Saints to adapt to his unorthodox methods. Since he comes from a different world with different fighting styles, the Saints might find it hard to follow his lead at first.
He becomes more decisive. As a leader, Naruto can't afford to be indecisive like he sometimes was in his youth. He has to quickly make choices that affect the whole village or group he's leading.
Maybe he shows extraordinary leadership skills like in his ninja world. He could use his combat abilities to gain respect among the lycans and then gradually take on the leadership role.
Maybe through her exceptional ninja skills. If she shows great power and strategic thinking, the people of Whirlpool might choose her as their leader.
He might face challenges like maintaining order among the chaotic and often unruly denizens of hell. There could be powerful demons who don't want to follow his leadership, and he has to use his skills and wits to subdue them.
Naruto might initially be very confused. He has always considered Team 7 as his friends, so the sudden hatred would be hard to understand. He could try to talk to them to find out what's wrong, but they might just ignore him or be hostile.
He could start by getting to know a kind doctor. If he meets a doctor who is gentle and takes the time to explain things to him, like how a treatment will help rather than just doing it, it might ease his fear.
Naruto's leadership style is more about leading by example. He dives into the thick of things. In contrast, some other characters might be more of the strategic - planning - from - afar type. Naruto is hands - on, which gives his followers a sense of security.
In some fanfictions, Naruto's recovery could be a long and arduous journey. He might have to go through intense physical and mental training while recovering. The author could also introduce some kind of ancient and forgotten medical knowledge that is used to treat his severe injuries. His recovery might also be tied to some prophecy or hidden power within him that is awakened due to the near - death experience.
He might initially be in shock and disbelief. Naruto has always valued his friends highly, so it would be a huge blow to him. He could try to reason with them at first, asking them why they are doing this.
