With his family - like figures in Konoha, such as Iruka, the relationship would be put to the test. Iruka would probably be heartbroken but also hope that Naruto is doing what he thinks is right. In Iwa, Naruto might find a new mentor - like figure who could teach him different things compared to what he learned in Konoha. This new relationship could shape his ninja path in a whole new way.
His relationship with the villagers would also be different. In Konoha, he was seen as a hero in the end, but in Iwa, he'd be an outsider at first. As he proves himself, the villagers' perception of him might change. And when it comes to his relationship with other villages, Konoha's allies might now view him with suspicion, while Iwa's allies would be curious about this new addition to Iwa's ninja force.
His relationships would become very complex. His friends in Konoha would be in shock. Naruto leaving Konoha for Kumo is like a slap in the face to them. They would wonder what drove him to such a decision. For example, Naruto had such a strong bond with Iruka - his first mentor. Iruka would be deeply saddened and would question if he had failed Naruto in some way. And Naruto's relationship with Kakashi would also take a hit. Kakashi would be worried about what this means for the future and how it could potentially lead to conflict between Konoha and Kumo.
His relationship with Sasuke would be severely affected. If Naruto is betrayed by Konoha and joins Kumo, Sasuke might see it as a sign of weakness or a wrong decision. Their rivalry could turn into something more complex, with Sasuke perhaps trying to bring Naruto back to Konoha or seeing him as an enemy. With his friends in Konoha like Sakura, there would be a lot of heartache. They might not understand his decision at first, but over time, some might come to realize the reasons behind it.
In the long run, the relationship could be mended if Naruto is able to show that his move to Suna has been beneficial not only to him but also to both villages. His friends might start to see his actions in a new light. They could collaborate on certain projects or missions that involve both Konoha and Suna. However, there would always be a sense of loss and change in their relationship. Naruto's departure would be a significant turning point, and they would have to re - evaluate their friendship in the context of the new situation where Naruto is now part of Suna.
Well, one possibility is that Naruto would face a lot of distrust in Iwa at first. He's from Konoha, after all, which has had a history of conflict with Iwa. But Naruto being Naruto, he might gradually win over some of the Iwa ninjas with his determination and unique skills. He could learn new jutsus specific to Iwa's style of fighting, which would make him an even more formidable ninja.
Well, it would completely disrupt the original plot. Naruto's loyalty to Konoha was a big part of his character. If he joined Iwa, he'd be seen as a traitor in Konoha. His relationships with friends like Sasuke and Sakura would be severely strained. And his goal of becoming Hokage in Konoha would no longer make sense. Instead, he might aim for a high position in Iwa. His training might also change as Iwa has different jutsu and fighting styles compared to Konoha.
His relationship with Sasuke would likely become more strained. Since Sasuke has his own complex feelings about Konoha, if Naruto is sick of it too, they might not see eye - to - eye on how to deal with the situation. Their bond which was once about protecting the village could be broken.
Naruto's relationship with his sensei, Kakashi, would be severely strained. Kakashi has always been a guiding figure for Naruto, and Naruto joining the Akatsuki would seem like a betrayal. However, Kakashi might also suspect that Naruto has an ulterior motive. As for his relationships with the other Konoha ninjas, they would be filled with suspicion and mistrust. But Naruto could also form new relationships within the Akatsuki. He might befriend some of the members who have a bit of good in them, like Konan perhaps, and together they could work towards a new future for the Akatsuki.
Naruto's relationships would shift significantly. In Kirigakure, he'd have to form new friendships with local ninjas. These relationships would be based on different foundations compared to his Konoha friends. He might find it hard to trust at first. And his relationship with Kakashi would also change. Kakashi would probably be concerned about Naruto's new situation but also respect his decision to some extent. Naruto would have to start from scratch in building trust and camaraderie in Kirigakure.
Konoha's power structure could be affected. Naruto is one of the strongest shinobi in the village. Without him, the village might be more vulnerable to attacks from other villages or threats. They would need to quickly find ways to fill the gap in their defenses.
Well, in fanfiction, if Naruto joins Iwa, he'd likely bring his unique skills and determination. His Rasengan and his never - give - up attitude could shake things up in Iwa. He might also face some initial distrust from the Iwa ninjas as he's from Konoha. But eventually, he could form new bonds and teach them some of Konoha's ways while also learning from Iwa's techniques.
