Hinata would develop more leadership qualities. With Naruto gone, she realizes that someone needs to step up and be a symbol of hope for those who still believe in Naruto. This would make her more confident in making decisions for the greater good of the village and its relationship with Naruto when he returns.
In this fanfiction scenario, Naruto and Sasuke's relationship could be less angsty. Hinata's presence could soften Sasuke's edges a bit more quickly. She could encourage them to talk about their feelings and past traumas more openly. As for Hinata's relationship with both of them, she could gain more confidence in herself. Naruto and Sasuke would support her in becoming a stronger ninja, and she in turn would help them see the importance of loyalty and family. Their relationships would be more of a mutual growth and support system compared to the original storyline.
It could be due to jealousy. Some villagers might be jealous of Naruto's power and Hinata's noble status. So, they spread false rumors that lead to their banishment.
Naruto might become more self - aware. Through the confrontation with Hinata, he could start to realize his own feelings towards her that he was previously unaware of. This could make him more in tune with his emotions.
In many fanfictions, Hinata's confidence grows. For example, she might start taking on more leadership roles in missions with Naruto. Since she has always been shy, in fanfiction, she could break out of her shell more, especially when Naruto is in danger. She becomes more assertive in protecting him and their relationship.
Hinata may become more assertive. Since she has Naruto as her 'weapon', she has to take on a more leading role. She might have to make decisions about when and how to use Naruto's powers, which could make her grow in confidence.
Their relationship would likely deepen. They would have more private time together, sharing their dreams and fears at night. Naruto would become more protective of Hinata in their shared home.
In these fanfictions, Hinata often develops more confidence. As Naruto's secretary, she has to interact with many people and handle important tasks. For instance, if she has to give presentations on Naruto's behalf, it forces her out of her shell. This new - found confidence can also affect her relationship with Naruto, as she becomes more assertive in expressing her feelings for him.
Hinata's relationships also develop in different ways in fanfictions. Her friendship with other characters like Sakura or Shikamaru can become more complex. She might form alliances with them to protect Naruto or the village. And of course, her romantic relationship with Naruto can take on various forms, from a slow - burn love story to a more immediate and passionate connection, depending on the writer's vision.
It could start with Hinata being more open about her admiration for Naruto. Instead of just blushing and being shy, she starts to actively engage with him as a friend. Naruto, being Naruto, would be very accepting and they'd start hanging out. For example, they could share ramen together, which is Naruto's favorite. This simple act of sharing food could be the start of a deeper connection.
If Naruto had the Sharingan, his battle skills would change. Hinata would be both in awe and a bit worried about this new Naruto. Their relationship could develop through her trying to understand this new power of his. For example, she might offer to help him train to control the Sharingan's abilities, like the genjutsu. During these training sessions, they would grow closer and their relationship would take on a new dimension of mutual understanding and support.
