How does the story usually develop when Naruto is merged with Kurama in fanfiction?

Often, it starts with Naruto delving deeper into his connection with Kurama. He might try to understand Kurama better, which in turn makes Kurama more open to him. For example, Naruto could spend time meditating to strengthen their link.

It could develop as Naruto spends more time in the mental space where Kurama resides. They start to communicate better, understand each other's motives, and gradually form a deeper connection. This might involve Naruto learning about Kurama's pain and loneliness over the years, which makes Kurama more open to Naruto. As a result, their bond becomes stronger and more symbiotic, allowing them to share power more effectively and support each other in different situations.

In fanfictions where this happens, the development can vary widely. One common way is that Naruto's transformation into the Kyuubi causes a rift in the ninja world. Some villages might see it as an opportunity to attack Konoha while it's dealing with this internal crisis. Meanwhile, Naruto himself is trying to regain his humanity. His friends, especially those closest to him like Kakashi and Iruka, would be determined to help him. They might have to face their own fears and prejudices towards the Kyuubi as they try to reach Naruto. There could also be a sub - plot where other jinchuriki are involved, either to help or hinder Naruto's situation.

His character would become more mature. With the future Kurama's training, Naruto would face different challenges that force him to think and act more like an experienced ninja, rather than the impulsive one he used to be.

Well, Naruto's mental state could be affected. Since Kurama has a very strong will, Naruto might have to struggle more to keep his own personality intact while merged. On the other hand, it could also lead to a deeper understanding between them, which in turn could result in Naruto being able to access Kurama's memories and knowledge. This could give him an edge in battles as he might learn about ancient fighting techniques or secrets of the ninja world.

If Naruto merged with Madara, the story might take a turn towards exploring new forms of ninjutsu. They could start teaching the new generation their combined techniques, and the ninja world would see a new era of powerful shinobi. Also, their relationship could be a central theme, with Naruto constantly trying to keep Madara's darker side in check.

Well, Kurama might train Naruto by teaching him how to better control and access chakra. Since Kurama has a vast amount of chakra, it could show Naruto unique ways to harness and use it. For example, it could guide Naruto in creating more powerful and complex jutsu by using their combined chakra in a more efficient way.

Often, it starts with the event of Naruto's death. Then, it may show the immediate reactions of the people close to him, like his friends and family. For example, his friends might be in shock and disbelief at first.

Well, first of all, there's the initial discovery of Snape as a baby. This causes a stir in the wizarding world. His enemies might see it as an opportunity to take advantage, while his friends (if he has any left in this state) will try to protect him. As the story progresses, there could be attempts to communicate with baby Snape, who may or may not retain some of his adult memories or magical abilities. The plot could then revolve around finding a cure, which could involve dangerous quests, ancient spells, or encounters with mysterious magical creatures. It's a really rich area for fanfiction writers to explore different aspects of the Harry Potter universe through this unique transformation.

Kurama might become angry at first. He's a powerful being and being neglected would likely wound his pride. He could start causing some minor disruptions inside Naruto, like making it harder for Naruto to access his chakra.
