Sakura could also be a main character. She could use her medical skills to take care of the dragon if it gets injured. Also, she might be the one to discover some secrets about the dragon egg through her research in the fanfiction.
Sasuke could be a main character. He might be initially interested in the dragon egg for its power but then his relationship with Naruto over the egg could change. Maybe they start as rivals again, but then realize they need to work together to protect the egg.
The Daimyo of Wave himself would be a main character for sure. Also, his guards or advisors who have a say in the running of Wave. Maybe a young heir to the Daimyo who is being groomed to take over and has his own ideas about the future of Wave.
Well, surely Hinata would be there. As Naruto's wife, she would support him in his role as Uzukage. Maybe Boruto and Himawari would also be involved, learning about their Uzumaki heritage from their father. And there could be some other Uzumaki clan members who have been in hiding and now come out to help Naruto lead the village.
Well, all the regular Naruto characters would still be there. Sasuke could be a major character. He might be initially skeptical or even jealous of Naruto's new identity. Kakashi could also play a role, perhaps trying to help Naruto control his new powers. And from the Shiva side of things, Nandi, Shiva's bull, could be a character. He could act as a protector or a guide to Naruto, teaching him about Shiva's ways and powers.
Sasuke could be in it. He might be initially skeptical of Naruto's new power but then see its potential in combat.
Sakura could be there. As Naruto's friend, she might be the child's doctor, always ready to heal any injuries. She could also give parenting advice to Naruto based on her medical knowledge.
The Hokage, of course. Depending on which era the fanfiction is set in, it could be Tsunade, Kakashi, or even Naruto himself in some time - jump scenarios. They play a crucial role as Naruto's superior who he serves.
Well, we might see characters from other villages as well. For instance, Gaara. He could be interested in Naruto's silver control because it might offer a new way to protect his village. And there could be a mysterious antagonist who wants to steal Naruto's silver control for his own evil purposes.
There could be Sasuke. Since Sasuke is Naruto's rival and often involved in the same major story arcs, he might play an important role in this fanfiction. His sharingan abilities could interact with Naruto's newfound speed in some interesting ways, either as an ally or an obstacle depending on the plot.
Sakura could be another main character. She might be shocked by Naruto's arrest and start her own investigation. Maybe she teams up with Sasuke, who also has his own complex feelings towards Naruto. Their combined efforts could play an important role in uncovering the truth.
Perhaps there could be a storm - wizard or a shaman who adopts Naruto. This character would have deep knowledge of storm - related powers and would be the one to guide Naruto in his new journey.
