The plot could start with Naruto being an outcast in his own world for some reason. Then, he stumbles upon a mysterious power that turns him into a Death Scythe. This new power gives him a chance at redemption. He embarks on a journey to prove himself. He might meet other Death Scythes or those who oppose them. His journey could involve learning about the origin of the Death Scythes, their purpose, and how his own values from the Naruto world can be applied in this new and dangerous situation. He may also have to face some of his old enemies who now see him as an even greater threat due to his new powers.
Maybe the scythe was once owned by a powerful shinobi from a forgotten clan. Naruto finds it and as he wields it, he starts to have strange visions. These visions lead him to new places and he uncovers a conspiracy in the ninja world. The scythe could also change Naruto's fighting style. Instead of his usual close - combat and ninjutsu attacks, he starts using more long - range and slashing - based attacks with the scythe.
One possible plot could be that Naruto discovers an ancient scythe during one of his adventures. This scythe could be imbued with some sort of special power, like the ability to cut through any chakra - based defense. Naruto then has to train to master using this scythe, which is a completely different weapon from his usual ninja tools. He might face challenges as his friends and the village elders are skeptical about him using such an unorthodox weapon.
One possible plot twist could be that the scythe is actually a cursed weapon. It might start to influence Naruto's mind, making him more aggressive and less like his usual self. This could lead to his friends becoming worried and trying to find a way to break the curse on the scythe.
The origin could be some ancient, long - forgotten magic. Maybe it was created by a powerful and now - extinct clan. They might have imbued it with a spirit or some form of intelligence for a specific purpose, like protecting a hidden treasure or an important location.
One potential character could be Sasuke. Imagine in a dark, alternate universe fanfic where Sasuke, instead of using his sword, wields a scythe. It could be a symbol of his more menacing and reclusive nature. He might use it with his Sharingan abilities, making his strikes not only powerful but also unpredictable as he can anticipate his opponents' moves.
Maybe the story could revolve around a female naruto character who uses a scythe in a very unique way. She is an outcast in her village because of her strange weapon choice, but she ends up being the key to saving the village from a great threat. As she battles, she discovers new abilities of her scythe that are crucial for victory.
It could be really cool. Naruto might use the death scythe in combat, slicing through enemies with ease. The scythe could have some unique abilities, like draining the chakra of those it cuts. It would change the dynamics of his battles.
One possible plot could be that Naruto somehow gets transported to the Darksiders universe and is mistaken for Death. He then has to adapt to this new, darker world while also dealing with the enemies and challenges that Death would typically face.
A possible plot could be that Naruto has a near - death experience and in that state, he encounters Lord Death. Lord Death offers him a deal: to become his disciple in exchange for the power to protect his loved ones better. Naruto accepts and starts to train under Lord Death. As he learns more about Lord Death's domain and powers, he has to make difficult choices between his old ninja life and this new path. His friends in Konoha start to worry about him as he changes, and there is a struggle to keep his relationships intact while following this new calling.
Maybe Naruto gets transported to the world of Death Knights. He could use his ninja skills in a new way, like combining his chakra with the powers of a Death Knight. For example, his Rasengan could be infused with Death Knight magic.
