What are some interesting Naruto Orochimaru fanfiction stories?

Another idea for a fanfiction could be a time - travel story. Naruto somehow travels back in time and meets a younger Orochimaru. He tries to prevent Orochimaru from going down the dark path. This would involve Naruto using his knowledge of the future to influence Orochimaru's decisions and change the course of history in the Naruto universe.

One interesting story could be about Naruto's journey of understanding Orochimaru's complex past. In this fanfiction, Naruto might start to see Orochimaru not just as a villain but as a troubled soul.

Naruto is the one who finds him and decides to help him start a new life, but they have to face the people who still remember Orochimaru's old self.

In some fanfictions, Orochimaru could be a mentor figure to Naruto in a different sense. He might teach Naruto some dark jutsu not to use them for evil but to understand the nature of power better.
