Well, it would likely give him an edge in close - quarters combat. Since Naruto is used to more hand - to - hand and ninjutsu - based fighting, kenjutsu would provide him with a new way to engage enemies up close. His combat style might become more refined as he has to learn the finesse of sword fighting, which is different from his usual brute - force approach in some cases.
It could make his combat style more diverse. With kenjutsu training, Naruto might add precise sword strikes to his already powerful and unpredictable attacks. He could use the sword to complement his shadow clones, for example, having clones distract opponents while he sneaks in a sword slash.
Maybe Sasuke. Sasuke is extremely proficient in kenjutsu. In fanfiction, he could see Naruto's potential and decide to train him, sharing his knowledge of sword fighting with Naruto. This could also be a way for them to bond and grow stronger together.
Well, Yamamoto likely has his own unique fighting style. When training Naruto, he could pass on things like better swordsmanship if that's part of his skills. This would give Naruto an additional weapon in his combat arsenal, making him more versatile in different fight scenarios. Also, Yamamoto's training might focus on Naruto's mental strength in combat, teaching him to be more calm and calculated during battles, which is different from Naruto's sometimes impulsive fighting style.
Well, Naruto might incorporate more teamwork - based tactics into his combat style. Since Kotetsu and Izumo are used to working together, they could instill in Naruto the importance of coordinating with his allies. He could start using moves that complement his teammates' abilities more often, and be more aware of his position in a group fight.
One possibility could be Kakashi. Since Kakashi is already a very versatile ninja with skills in many areas including some swordsmanship, he could teach Naruto kenjutsu. He has the patience and the knowledge to pass on the skills.
One possible fanfiction could involve Naruto learning kenjutsu skills and Hinata being inspired by his newfound abilities. Maybe Naruto discovers an ancient sword technique and Hinata supports him in his training, leading to a deeper bond between them.
Well, he might start by observing other kenjutsu masters. Maybe he watches Kakashi or other skilled swordsmen in the village. Then he'd practice a lot, like in his training with Rasengan but with a sword instead. He could also learn from old scrolls about different sword techniques.
It can have a big impact. Some fans might be really sad because Naruto is such a beloved character. It can also inspire new fanarts and discussions within the fandom.
The metal claws could enhance Naruto's close - combat capabilities. They would give him an edge in slashing and grappling. For example, he could use them to quickly deflect incoming kunai or shuriken. Also, they could be used in combination with his shadow clone jutsu. One clone could distract an opponent while Naruto himself uses the claws to strike from an unexpected angle.
Since Naruto can't feel pain in this fanfiction, his combat style would likely change a great deal. Normally, pain is a signal that tells a fighter to be cautious. But without it, Naruto could throw himself into battles without a second thought. He might not bother with defensive maneuvers as much, relying more on his raw power and stamina. He could end up using more powerful and risky jutsu without worrying about the consequences of getting hit, which would be a huge shift from his more cautious moments in the original series.
Let's say he gets a weapon that can transform. For example, it can change from a small dagger to a large spear. This would make his combat style more versatile. He could start a fight with the dagger form for quick, sneaky attacks, and then transform it into a spear when he needs more power and reach. This new weapon would force him to learn new fighting techniques and adapt his style to make the best use of its abilities.
