In this fanfiction, Naruto's development could be seen in his ability to communicate better. Since he is hosting with Tsunade, he has to be more articulate and diplomatic. He would learn to use his words more carefully, which is a big step for him. Tsunade might develop a softer side. Usually a tough - as - nails leader, being around Naruto's kind - hearted nature could make her more approachable and empathetic towards others in the village.
One possible plot could be that Tsunade and Naruto are hosting an event in the Hidden Leaf Village. During this event, they encounter some strange happenings. Maybe they find a mysterious lemon tree that has some magical properties. Naruto, with his usual enthusiasm, wants to explore what the tree can do, while Tsunade is more cautious. They could then go on an adventure to discover the secrets of this lemon tree and along the way, they face challenges and learn more about each other.
Well, it could develop through shared experiences. For instance, if they both go on a diplomatic mission to another village. During the journey, they face difficulties like hostile ninja attacks or harsh weather. They have to rely on each other's skills. Naruto's combat skills and Tsunade's strategic thinking complement each other. This cooperation makes them closer and over time, love might bloom between them.
In the beginning, Tsunade's relationship with baby Naruto could be based on her sense of duty as a village leader and a healer. However, as she spends more time with him, she discovers his unique charm. Naruto's innocent nature and his unwavering spirit would start to break down Tsunade's tough exterior. She would gradually open up to him, sharing her own experiences and wisdom. Naruto, being a baby, would soak up all this attention and care, and as he grows, he would repay her kindness with loyalty and love. This would lead to a deep - seated relationship that is part family - like, part mentor - mentee, and would be crucial for Naruto's growth as a ninja and a person.
Their relationship would develop through mutual respect. Naruto respects Tsunade as a strong leader and a great medical ninja. Tsunade, in turn, would come to see Naruto as more than just a brash young ninja. As they travel together, Naruto would listen to Tsunade's stories about the past, which would deepen their bond.
At first, they might have some clashes due to their different personalities. Naruto is impulsive and Tsunade can be stubborn. But as they face difficulties together, like fighting off a group of rogue ninjas, they start to understand each other better. Tsunade might see Naruto as a younger version of her late brother, and Naruto would see Tsunade as a more motherly figure. This would lead to a deeper, more emotional bond between them.
In this fanfiction, the ahegao element could be the catalyst for a new side of their relationship. Let's say Naruto discovers Tsunade in an ahegao state due to some strange chakra fluctuation. He helps her out, and from that moment on, Tsunade starts to view Naruto in a different light. She begins to trust him more with important matters in the village. Naruto, on the other hand, feels more responsible for Tsunade's well - being. This leads to a relationship where they support each other in different ways, whether it's in battles or in dealing with the politics of the village. They become more like comrades who have each other's backs no matter what.
Their relationship could develop in a way that Naruto brings out Tsunade's softer side. He is always full of energy and positive vibes, which could slowly chip away at Tsunade's tough exterior. Tsunade, in turn, could offer Naruto her vast experience and wisdom, guiding him in his role in the village.
At first, they might be at odds. The male Tsunade could be a bit of a loner and Naruto's exuberant personality might annoy him. But as they are forced to work together on a dangerous mission, they start to see the good in each other. Naruto's determination inspires the male Tsunade to open up more, and the male Tsunade's calmness in the face of danger helps Naruto to be more strategic. Over time, they become good friends who trust each other implicitly.
Naruto's powers would develop in a more balanced way. Tsunade is not just about brute force like Naruto sometimes tends to be. She would encourage him to learn other aspects of ninjutsu. So, in addition to his regular attacks, he could develop some defensive jutsus based on Tsunade's teachings. Also, his Sage Mode might be enhanced as Tsunade could provide insights on how to better control and utilize natural energy.
His character could become more self - assured. Tsunade's belief in him would boost his confidence further. He might become more strategic in combat, learning from Tsunade's battle - hardened experience.
