One idea could be that Naruto is sent on a mission to the Hidden Mist Village and gets separated from his team. He then has to adapt to the Mist Ninja ways to survive. He might learn their unique jutsu, like some water - based techniques, and form unexpected alliances with Mist Ninja who admire his determination.
In this fanfiction, Naruto might gain new and unique ninja skills. Maybe he discovers a long - lost jutsu that makes him even more powerful than in the original story.
Well, Naruto could become a true ninja in this fanfiction by learning the true meaning of ninja. It's not just about power but also about protecting the village and the people he loves. He might have faced some tough moral choices that tested his ninja way. By sticking to his beliefs and growing from these experiences, he becomes a true ninja.
Well, if Naruto becomes a Kumo Ninja in fanfiction, he would have to adapt to a whole new environment. Kumo has different training methods and a different ninja culture compared to Konoha. He might learn new jutsus specific to Kumo's style. And his relationships with the other Kumo ninjas would be interesting to explore, like how he gets along with Killer Bee or other strong Kumo shinobi.
One possible new character could be a young orphan with a hidden talent for ninjutsu. Naruto, having been an orphan himself, takes the kid under his wing. This new character could have a unique power that is related to illusions but in a much more advanced and dangerous way than the normal genjutsu. Another new addition could be a ninja from a rival village who, after seeing Naruto's growth, decides to join him instead of fighting against him. This character could bring with him the knowledge of the rival village's secret ninja strategies.
If Naruto becomes a Mist Ninja in fanfiction, it would have a huge impact on the ninja world's politics. Konoha might see him as a traitor, or they could try to negotiate with the Hidden Mist for his return. The Hidden Mist, on the other hand, would gain a powerful ally in Naruto. This could change the balance of power between the villages. Naruto himself would be in a unique position to bridge the gap between the two villages, using his newfound knowledge of the Mist Ninja and his roots in Konoha to promote peace and understanding.
He would probably be a more laid - back character. Without the pressure of ninja training and missions, he could be someone who enjoys simple pleasures in life, like spending time with friends in the village square, chatting and having a good laugh. He might be more into arts or music, things that he didn't have much time for as a ninja in the original story.
Well, one possibility is that Naruto feels betrayed by the Hidden Leaf Village. Maybe they wrongly accused him of a serious crime. So, he decides to go rogue. He could then start traveling alone, using his skills to survive and avoid capture. He might also meet other outcasts who understand his situation.
The main challenges for Naruto could be related to his past. He has a difficult past with being an orphan and having the nine - tailed fox inside him. In this fanfiction, he might have to come to terms with his past in a new way. He also may face enemies who target him because of his unique situation, and he has to overcome these threats while still holding onto his values and becoming a true ninja.
The story in this fanfiction would be quite different. Since Naruto doesn't become a ninja, the power dynamics in the village change. There would be no Naruto to challenge the status quo in the ninja world. Instead, the story could revolve around how the other ninja adapt to a world without Naruto's influence. Maybe some of the conflicts that were resolved by Naruto in the original story now fester and cause bigger problems. And Naruto, as a non - ninja, might have to find a way to deal with these issues from the outside, using his wits and new - found non - ninja skills.
