A possible plot could be that Naruto discovers that his parents' neglect is due to a secret they are keeping from him. They might be protecting him from a greater threat by staying away from him, but Naruto misinterprets it as neglect. As he digs deeper into the mystery, he uncovers the truth and has to decide whether to forgive his parents or not. This would add a lot of drama and emotional turmoil to the story.
One possible scenario in such a fanfiction could be that Naruto's parents are preoccupied with their shinobi duties. They might be constantly on missions for the Hidden Leaf Village, leaving Naruto at home with caretakers who don't really pay him much attention. This could lead to Naruto feeling lonely and isolated, just as he did in the original story when he thought he had no family.
One plot twist could be that Naruto discovers his parents had a very good reason for their neglect, like they were protecting him from a greater danger. Another could be that the village elders knew about the neglect but did nothing, and Naruto has to confront them. Or perhaps Naruto finds out he has a secret power that was the cause of his parents' seeming neglect, as they were afraid of what he could do.
A possible plot is that Naruto is constantly bullied because of his neglected state and his unknown bloodline. As he grows, he starts to show signs of his bloodline powers, which attracts the attention of both friends and foes. His journey then becomes about controlling his powers and dealing with the past neglect of his parents while also facing the new challenges that come with his revealed bloodline.
One possible storyline could be that Minato and Kushina help Naruto train. They could pass on their unique jutsu and combat skills directly to him. This would make Naruto even more powerful at a much faster rate compared to in the original story.
The plot could start with Naruto being born blind. His parents, Minato and Kushina, are determined to raise him as a strong ninja. They might focus on training his other senses from a young age. As Naruto grows, he faces challenges in the ninja academy due to his blindness but overcomes them with the help of his parents and his own determination. He could develop unique fighting styles that rely on his hearing, smell, and touch. For example, he might be able to sense an opponent's chakra flow better than others, which gives him an edge in battles.
In a fanfiction where Naruto's parents are alive, they could play a major role in changing the politics of the Hidden Leaf. Minato, being a former Hokage, and Kushina with her strong Uzumaki blood, might work together to strengthen the village's defenses and relations with other villages. This would also mean Naruto doesn't have to struggle alone and could learn advanced techniques much earlier from his parents.
One possible plot twist could be that Harry's parents were actually in hiding all this time and had faked their deaths to protect Harry from an even greater threat. Another could be that they were turned into different forms and were secretly living among the wizarding community without Harry knowing.
In this fanfiction, Naruto finds himself in a parallel universe where his parents are not only alive but also play a significant role in his life. There are new adventures and challenges as he navigates this changed reality.
One possible plotline could be that Minato and Kushina raise Naruto as a normal child in Konoha. Naruto would grow up with their love and guidance, which would significantly change his personality. He might be more confident from the start and not have that intense need to prove himself. Also, Minato could train Naruto personally, and Naruto might inherit his father's skills much earlier, leading to different adventures and battles in the ninja world.
One possible plot could be that Naruto's parents being mute adds a new layer of secrecy. They might have a unique way of communicating with Naruto through signs or special ninjutsu. For example, they could use a form of chakra - based sign language that only the Uzumaki family knows. This would make Naruto's relationship with them different from the canon, as he has to learn this new form of communication. And with them alive, they could be protecting Naruto from the shadows, secretly thwarting the Akatsuki's plans against him without his knowledge at first.
