In some 'naruto and shikamaru time travel fanfiction', there could be a plotline where they travel to a time when a great evil was just emerging. They then have to find a way to stop it before it becomes a major threat. They might have to team up with past versions of their friends and allies. Shikamaru could analyze the situation and figure out the enemy's weaknesses, while Naruto could be the driving force in the battles against the emerging threat.
One interesting plotline could be Naruto and Shikamaru traveling back to the time of the founding of Konoha. They could use their modern - day knowledge and skills to influence the village's formation in a positive way, like introducing new jutsu training methods. Another could be them going back to key battles in the past to change the outcome and save lives that were lost. Maybe they prevent the death of a beloved character, which then has a ripple effect on the future of the ninja world.
