One challenge could be Naruto's stubbornness. Naruto has his own ideas and ways of doing things, and getting him to listen and follow Kakashi's guidance might be tough. Another is dealing with Naruto's past traumas. Kakashi would need to help Naruto overcome his feelings of loneliness and being an outcast. Also, Kakashi has his own responsibilities and missions, so finding time to be a proper adoptive father could be a struggle.
Well, for starters, Kakashi has to deal with Naruto's hyperactive and sometimes reckless behavior. Naruto often acts without thinking, which could put him in danger. Sasuke, with his complex emotions and the burden of his clan's massacre, is also a handful. Kakashi needs to make Sasuke understand that revenge is not the only way forward. Additionally, Kakashi has to ensure that both Naruto and Sasuke get along well with each other. There could be rivalry between them, and Kakashi has to manage that in a way that doesn't harm their relationship or their growth as ninjas.
Kawaki might resist Naruto's teachings at first. Since he has his own way of doing things, adapting to Naruto's values and training methods could be difficult. Also, the village might not fully accept Kawaki right away, and Naruto would have to fight for Kawaki to be accepted, which is a big challenge.
The journey itself could be full of danger. There could be bandits or rogue ninja along the way who target Naruto because of his fame. Also, the terrain between Konoha and Kumo might be difficult to traverse, with mountains, rivers, and forests full of wild animals.
Well, for one thing, Naruto would have more direct guidance. Kakashi is a highly skilled ninja. He could train Naruto more intensively, sharing his own unique combat skills and strategies. Naruto might also gain more emotional stability. With Kakashi as a father figure, he'd have someone to turn to for advice and support, not just as a teacher but as family. This could also affect his relationships with others in the village. For example, he might be more confident in his interactions with the villagers, knowing he has Kakashi's backing.
One challenge could be time management. Naruto is always so busy with his ninja duties, protecting the village and going on missions. Finding the time to sit down and write would be tough. Also, he might struggle with grammar and spelling since his ninja training didn't really focus on that.
One challenge could be gaining the trust of the Root members. Since Root has a history of being a secretive and somewhat feared organization, the members might be skeptical of Naruto's leadership. They're used to a more authoritarian style, and Naruto's more open and friendly approach could be met with resistance.
In this fanfiction scenario, Naruto would face the challenge of changing the perception of the Uchiha within the village. Since he is now part of the clan, he would want to show that the Uchiha are not to be feared. However, there would be those in the village who still hold grudges or suspicions towards the Uchiha. Also, Naruto would need to manage his relationship with Sasuke in a new way. They are now family, but Sasuke has his own path and issues. Naruto would have to find a way to support Sasuke while also upholding the values of the Uchiha clan. Additionally, he would have to face the internal politics of the Uchiha clan itself, which could be complex and full of power struggles.
He might face new and powerful enemies. In fanfiction, there could be hidden threats in the outside world that are different from those in the village. These enemies could have unique abilities that Naruto has never encountered before, testing his combat skills and strategic thinking.
One challenge could be adapting to the team's dynamics. Team 8 has its own way of operating, and Naruto is used to his own style with his friends. For instance, they might be more methodical in their planning, while Naruto is more of a 'jump - in - and - figure - it - out' type. So, he'd have to learn to follow their lead sometimes.
He might face challenges like finding the right place to plant the tree. Konoha has a lot of regulations about what can be planted where. Also, he needs to make sure the tree gets enough water and sunlight. If it's a magical tree, he may not know exactly what it needs to grow well.
