I think it's a toss-up. Deku has potential and is constantly evolving, but Naruto's strength and strategic thinking give him an edge. It could come down to the specific circumstances of the fight.
Naruto's outgoing and boisterous personality would make Deku more confident. He would probably be more upfront and less shy. Naruto's strong sense of justice would also intensify Deku's already existing desire to help others.
A 'naruto vs jigen fanfic' could be really interesting. Naruto is known for his never - give - up attitude. He would likely start the fight with his usual bravado and confidence. Jigen, being a more mysterious and powerful opponent, would probably initially have the upper hand. But Naruto's ability to adapt in battle is remarkable. He could analyze Jigen's fighting style during the fight and come up with new strategies. The fanfic could also introduce new elements like a power - up for Naruto or a hidden ability of Jigen that changes the course of the battle.
I think Hinata could be an ally. She has always been in love with Naruto and would not stand by while he is in danger from Dark Naruto. Additionally, Shikamaru is smart and strategic. He might see the threat of Dark Naruto to the village and decide to assist Naruto, using his intelligence to come up with battle plans.
In a fanfiction where Naruto is reborn as Deku, there would be a lot of potential for unique storylines. Naruto's experience with facing powerful enemies in the Naruto world could give Deku an edge. He might be more aggressive in battles compared to the original Deku. Also, Naruto's ability to make friends and form bonds could strengthen Deku's relationships with his classmates even further. And his understanding of power and how to grow stronger could lead to a faster development of Deku's abilities.
Well, it could be about a dark version of Naruto having different goals and values from the original Naruto. Maybe the black Naruto wants to take over the Hidden Leaf Village by any means, while the real Naruto tries to stop him to protect his home and friends.
In fanfiction, the Rinnegan is often depicted as more powerful than the Sharingan in many ways. The Rinnegan has abilities like the Six Paths techniques which can be extremely overpowered. For example, it can allow the user to control gravity, summon large creatures, and even revive the dead. While the Sharingan has its own set of cool abilities like predicting movements and casting genjutsu, it seems limited in comparison when it comes to the grand scale of power shown by the Rinnegan in most fanfictions.
In a fanfiction, the aliens could capture Naruto and try to study his unique abilities. The monsters then decide to rescue him because they realize his powers could be the key to defeating the aliens once and for all. The story could involve a lot of action as the monsters infiltrate the alien base to save Naruto.
The main differences are in their expressions and some minor details of personality. In the manga, Deku might seem a bit more intense, while in the anime, he's sometimes presented a bit softer.
Well, perhaps the plot could revolve around a tournament. In this 'naruto luffy deku crossover fanfiction', they all enter a huge, multiverse - wide tournament. Naruto shows off his cool jutsu, Luffy surprises everyone with his stretching attacks, and Deku displays his newfound strength. Along the way, they have to team up against some really tough opponents who don't play fair, and they grow closer as friends.
