In some 'Naruto Dead or Alive Fanfiction', there are plotlines centered around the afterlife if Naruto dies. How he might interact with past Hokages or other deceased ninja. And there are also plotlines about Naruto's legacy if he dies. How the ninja world remembers him and how his friends and family carry on his ideals. There could also be a plotline where Naruto is brought back to life but with some strange new powers or abilities that he has to learn to control.
One common plotline is the resurrection of dead characters. If Naruto is dead in the fanfiction, there could be a quest to bring him back. Another is alternate timelines where Naruto's life - or death - changes the course of the entire ninja world. For instance, if he dies early, the Akatsuki might achieve their goals more easily.
It varies from one fanfiction to another. Some fanfictions might depict Naruto as dead to introduce a new set of challenges for the remaining characters. For example, if Naruto dies, Konoha might be left vulnerable, and characters like Sasuke or Sakura would have to step up in different ways. But there are also plenty of fanfictions where Naruto remains alive and continues his journey, perhaps facing new and even more dangerous threats than in the original series.
Often, in these fanfictions, Pyrrha comes back and has to deal with the aftermath of her 'death'. She might have to regain the trust of her friends who thought she was gone. There are also plotlines where she returns with new powers or abilities. For instance, she could have gained powers from the place she was 'preserved' in while she was 'dead'. Some stories also explore her relationship with Jaune again, now that she's alive, and how they pick up where they left off or start anew.
One possible plotline could be Naruto finding unexpected allies during his time left for dead. Maybe some characters who previously had no connection to him come to his aid out of a newfound sense of justice or a change of heart.
Another plotline might involve Naruto's inner struggle and growth. He could discover new powers or a deeper understanding of his ninja way while on the verge of death. He might have to rely solely on his wits and the training he's had in the past to survive. For example, he could use his shadow clones in more creative and strategic ways to defend himself and find a way back to his village.
One idea could be Naruto traveling to different dimensions where he meets alternate versions of female characters and they all form a sort of harem around him. Another could be that after a powerful jutsu, Naruto is transported to a realm where the rules of life and death are different, and he has to deal with female characters who have their own motives regarding his presence in this new world.
One possible plotline could be that Naruto is caught in a powerful enemy's fire - based jutsu during a battle. Maybe the enemy has some vendetta against him and wants to see him suffer. Another could be that Naruto sacrifices himself by jumping into a burning building to save civilians. He might then struggle to survive the intense heat and his injuries.
One possible plotline could be Kushina teaching Naruto about the Uzumaki clan's secrets. Since she was an Uzumaki, she could pass on unique jutsu and knowledge that no one else in the village might know. For example, she could teach him advanced sealing techniques. Another plotline could be Kushina's influence on Naruto's relationship with the other villagers. Her presence might have changed how some of the villagers who were once cold to Naruto would now interact with him. Also, Kushina could be involved in the political affairs of the village, using her wisdom and strength to help Konoha face external threats more effectively.
One popular one could be 'The Resurgence of the Uchiha' which focuses on the Uchiha clan's potential revival in a 'Dead or Alive' scenario. It's full of action and character development. Another is 'Naruto's New Path' which takes Naruto on a different journey than in the original story, without any inappropriate content.
Well, there could be a plotline where Naruto's ability to see the dead is initially seen as a curse. He struggles with it until he meets an old sage who tells him it's actually a great gift. Then he starts to explore the spiritual side of the ninja world more deeply. He might also use his power to help the families of the dead find closure. For instance, he could pass on messages from the dead loved ones, which would earn him the respect and love of many in the village.
One interesting plotline could be about the characters' journey to discover the true meaning of love in a post - apocalyptic world. Maybe they find that love can exist even without all the trappings of modern society.
