Sakura's character would likely be more conflicted. Instead of just having a straightforward loyalty to Konoha, she'd have this internal battle due to her relation to Orochimaru. She might be more secretive and less trusting of others at first.
She would likely be more secretive. Since Itachi was involved in many dark and hidden matters, Sakura would have to keep a lot of things to herself. Her character might also be more brooding and less of the bubbly girl we initially see in the original series.
During the training with Orochimaru, Sakura would probably experience a significant transformation in her character. Her medical skills might take on a new dimension as she learns from Orochimaru's knowledge of forbidden techniques. This could lead to her being more willing to take risks in the medical field for the sake of achieving greater results. Emotionally, she may become more detached as she gets used to Orochimaru's cold - hearted approach to training, but at the same time, she might develop a stronger will to protect her friends and village from the kind of evil Orochimaru represents.
Her character development would likely be different in terms of self - confidence. As a girl, she might face different insecurities, but also find new sources of strength. For example, she could become more empathetic towards female characters' struggles.
Her character development might be different in that she could be more in touch with her nurturing side. Instead of just focusing on revenge, she might also be interested in healing and building relationships. For example, she could be more involved in helping the village recover from disasters or conflicts.
Konoha replacing Sakura would lead to different character development. For example, in terms of combat skills, if Konoha is more into stealth and assassination rather than Sakura's medical and combat skills, her training would focus on different aspects. She might train more with Kakashi in the ways of the ninja in a more sneaky and less straightforward way.
Naruto's character would likely be darker. Orochimaru is known for his unethical experiments and thirst for power. Naruto, under his tutelage, might be more focused on individual strength rather than the bonds he values in the original series. He could become more secretive and less trusting of others.
Sakura's character would likely be more ruthless. Orochimaru's influence might make her less hesitant to use force or engage in morally gray actions. For instance, she might not be as opposed to using forbidden jutsu as she was in the original series.
Her character development would likely involve more self - discovery in terms of her femininity. She'd have to figure out how to be confident in a different body. Also, her relationships with male characters might become more complex, with new dynamics emerging.
Well, getting the curse mark could make Sakura more determined. She might see it as a challenge to overcome. It could also make her more isolated as others might fear her new mark. This could lead to her relying more on her own strength and less on the support of her friends.
Her character could develop in a way that she becomes more independent. In the fanfiction, away from the protection of her usual teammates, she has to fend for herself among Orochimaru's minions. This would force her to rely on her own strength and intelligence. Also, she might develop a darker side. Being around Orochimaru's evil influence, she could struggle with maintaining her positive outlook and might have moments where she is tempted by the power he offers without considering the consequences.
