If Naruto abandons Konoha, it could lead to a whole new set of adventures. He might start his own journey, meet new allies and enemies. He could form his own community or village that is based on the values he truly believes in, which might be a contrast to Konoha. This could also lead to a possible redemption arc for Konoha if they realize their mistakes and try to win Naruto back.
Many relationships would be affected. For example, Sasuke's story would take a different turn. He might not have the same motivation to return to Konoha if Naruto is not there. Also, Naruto's other friends like Sakura would be devastated and might set out on a journey to find him. The power dynamics in the ninja world would shift as well, with other villages possibly seeing Konoha as weaker without Naruto.
The story would likely focus more on Naruto's individual journey. Instead of being centered around Konoha's affairs, he'd be out in the world facing new challenges. His relationships with his Konoha friends might become strained or take on a different dynamic as he's no longer part of the village.
As for Kakashi, he would be in a difficult position. He has mentored Naruto and also has a strong loyalty to Konoha. He might try to understand Naruto's reasons while also having to deal with the village's reaction. Their relationship could become strained as Kakashi tries to balance his duties to the village and his connection with Naruto.
At first, Naruto is likely to be heartbroken. Konoha has been his home, and he has always longed for acceptance from the villagers. So being abandoned would be a huge blow to him.
The village would have to rely more on other ninjas. Younger generations like Boruto and his friends would have to step up earlier. This could lead to a different kind of character development for them, as they are forced to take on more responsibilities without Naruto and Hinata's guidance.
This fanfiction might make Naruto more of a loner. In the original, he was always surrounded by friends and the support of the village. Abandoning Konoha would force him to rely only on himself and his own powers. His character could become more cynical as he distances himself from the place he once called home.
One possible reason could be fear. Naruto has the Nine - Tails within him, and some in Konoha might be too afraid of its power getting out of control. They may not fully trust Naruto to keep it in check.
One possible reason could be that Naruto discovers some dark secrets about the village leadership that go against his values. For example, if he finds out that they have been using underhanded means to maintain power.
The story would also change the perception of Naruto. Instead of being seen as the hero of Konoha, he would be considered a traitor by many. This would create a whole new set of relationships and conflicts. His friends might try to convince him to change his mind, leading to some very emotional and complex storylines. The shinobi world as a whole might start to question the values that Naruto has always represented, like loyalty and perseverance. And if Konoha does fall, it could inspire other villages to reevaluate their own security measures and relationships with their ninjas.
One possible reason could be feeling betrayed by the village leaders. Maybe they made decisions that Naruto strongly disagreed with, like how they treated certain groups or individuals. If Naruto felt that Konoha was no longer the place that stood for justice and fairness as he once believed, he might abandon it.
His relationship with Sasuke would likely become more strained. Since Sasuke has his own complex feelings about Konoha, if Naruto is sick of it too, they might not see eye - to - eye on how to deal with the situation. Their bond which was once about protecting the village could be broken.
