Minato being alive in fanfiction could mean more guidance and protection for Naruto. It could also lead to new alliances and conflicts within the ninja villages.
It could completely change the dynamics of the Naruto universe. Their presence might have prevented many tragedies and shaped Naruto's life differently.
The emotional bond would be stronger. Naruto wouldn't have to face the pain of growing up without a father. Minato could be there to cheer him on during his training and be a source of comfort when Naruto faced difficulties, like when he was bullied as a child. He could also help Naruto better control the Nine - Tails' power from the start.
It could start with Naruto being born and Minato and Kushina getting to raise him. They would teach him all about chakra control and ninjutsu. Naruto would be a happy kid growing up in a loving family environment.
One idea could be that Naruto grows up with his parents in a world where the Nine - Tailed Fox attack never fully happened. Minato and Kushina could train Naruto from a young age, passing on their unique jutsu and wisdom. Maybe Naruto would be less of an outcast and more of a confident shinobi early on.
One interesting fanfic could be where female Naruto, with her father Minato alive, has to face new threats in the ninja world. In this story, she might train under Minato, learning his signature jutsu like the Rasengan in a whole new way. It could explore how having a father figure changes her path from the original Naruto's story.
If Minato and Kushina were alive in Naruto's story, Naruto would have grown up with his parents. He wouldn't have had to endure the loneliness he did as a child. Minato could have trained Naruto from a young age, passing on his powerful jutsu. Kushina could have taught Naruto about the Uzumaki clan's secrets. Also, the village of Konoha would have been a different place, with Minato's leadership and Kushina's strength adding to its security.
In this kind of fanfiction, Naruto's life would be drastically different. He might be trained in Kumo's unique ninja arts. Minato being alive could mean he has some sort of connection or influence on Naruto from afar. Maybe Naruto would grow up with a different set of values influenced by Kumo's culture, while still having his father's legacy in the back of his mind.
It could be about female Naruto's journey to become Hokage with Minato's support. Minato, being alive, could share his wisdom about leadership with her. She might face different challenges compared to male Naruto, like dealing with gender biases in the ninja world. But with Minato's guidance, she overcomes these and proves herself worthy of the Hokage title.
One possible plot could be that with Minato and Kushina alive, Naruto grows up in a complete family. They could train Naruto together, passing on their unique jutsu. Maybe Minato could finally fulfill his dream of bringing long - lasting peace to the Hidden Leaf with his family by his side. And Naruto would have a different kind of confidence and growth, not having to face the loneliness he did in the original story.
Well, Minato could start training Naruto from a very young age. He could pass on his Flying Thunder God Technique, which would give Naruto a huge advantage in combat. Kushina could train Naruto in the ways of the Uzumaki clan, like their strong chakra reserves and sealing techniques. With both of them alive, Naruto's training would be more comprehensive and personalized compared to what he had in the original story.
