A lot would change. Since the Sandaime is such an important figure in Konoha. His survival would mean that the village leadership remains stable. This could lead to different alliances and relationships within the ninja world. For Naruto, he would have a stronger figure to look up to and learn from, which might accelerate his growth as a ninja and his understanding of his role in the village.
The story would take a different turn. Naruto would have more support. The Sandaime could help him train better and understand his powers more. Also, the threat from Orochimaru might be more easily managed, which would change the whole dynamic of the series.
In a fanfiction where the Sandaime survives the Chunin Exams, Konoha would be a very different place. His wisdom and experience are invaluable. He might be able to prevent some of the internal strife that occurred after his death. Naruto would probably grow even faster under his continued guidance. And the relationship between the different ninja clans might be more stable with his leadership still in place.
Well, one thing that could happen is that Naruto, with his knowledge of future events, could easily ace the written part of the Chunin Exams. He might also be able to prevent some of the chaos that Orochimaru caused during the exams. For example, he could warn the proctors about Orochimaru's infiltration in advance.
Well, in that fanfiction scenario where Naruto gets Sharingan during the Chunin Exams, it would completely shake up the existing power dynamics. Firstly, his friends and foes would be shocked. His ability to quickly analyze situations would skyrocket. For example, he could better understand the strategies of opponents like Gaara. And in terms of his training, he could learn new techniques faster. Plus, it could also create some internal conflict as he tries to understand this new power that's not native to his clan.
If Kushina trains Naruto for the Chunin Exams in fanfiction, it would be an amazing story. Kushina was a powerful kunoichi. She could train Naruto in areas he lacks, like better chakra control perhaps. Also, their mother - son bond would be beautifully explored during the training sessions. Naruto would probably become more confident and his combat skills would improve significantly.
In such a fanfiction, Naruto might use his new and improved Rasengan techniques that he's been secretly practicing. Sasuke, on the other hand, could unveil some new Sharingan powers. It could be a battle full of intense jutsu exchanges and emotional turmoil as they both strive to prove themselves in the Chunin Exams.
He could discover a new power within himself. Maybe during a particularly intense battle in the Chunin Exams, Naruto Namikaze realizes he has a latent ability that he didn't know about before. This new power could turn the tide of the battle and surprise both his opponents and allies.
Perhaps Kurenai becomes Naruto's unexpected ally. The Chunin Exams are full of danger and political intrigue. Kurenai might see Naruto as a key to maintaining the balance in the village during this chaotic time. So she steps in to help him, not just in battles but also in navigating the complex web of relationships and power plays.
Well, in a fanfiction about Dark Naruto in the Chunin Exams, he could cause chaos during the exams. Maybe he'd use his dark powers to defeat opponents in really cruel ways, unlike the normal Naruto. He might not follow the rules at all and just go on a rampage to show his strength.
In a 'Naruto Kakashi Chunin Exams' fanfiction, there could be many exciting things. For example, Kakashi might reveal some new jutsus to his students during the exams. Naruto could face unexpected opponents and overcome them in unique ways, showing his growth as a ninja. There might also be new twists in the exam rules, created by the author to add more drama.
In a 'Naruto Mokuton Chunin Exams' fanfiction, there could be new characters with unique Mokuton abilities participating in the exams. They might face unexpected challenges during the written and practical tests. For example, the forest of death could have new and more dangerous creatures due to the Mokuton influence.
