Hokage Naruto Time Travel Fanfiction: Who are the most interesting characters to write about in this genre?

Naruto himself is of course the most interesting. His character development can be explored in a whole new way when he travels through time. Also, characters like Sasuke. Imagine Sasuke seeing a different Naruto from the past and how that would change their dynamic. And Kakashi too. He has a rich history, and seeing Naruto interact with a younger Kakashi in the past can be really engaging.

In Hokage Naruto time travel fanfiction, Naruto is the central character, but Orochimaru is also quite interesting. If Naruto were to travel back to a time when Orochimaru was causing more trouble, he could try to stop Orochimaru's evil plans earlier. Additionally, Minato, Naruto's father, is an important character. A time - traveling Naruto getting to meet his father again in a different context, perhaps before his father's death, would be a very emotional and interesting scenario to write about.
