In this fanfiction, the plot might involve Naruto being tricked by an evil force into believing that the Fourth Hokage has some dark secrets. So he decides to fight him. It could also be a scenario where Naruto enters a different dimension where the Fourth Hokage is being controlled by an outside power, and Naruto has to free him by fighting. And during the fight, Naruto discovers new things about his father and his own abilities.
One possible plot could be that Naruto is somehow transported to a different timeline where he has to fight the Hokage for a misunderstanding. Maybe there's a villain who has manipulated events to make the Hokage think Naruto is a threat. So Naruto has to fight not only to prove his innocence but also to save the village from the real danger that the villain poses.
One possible plot twist could be that Naruto has to face an unexpected enemy from the past of the Fourth Hokage. Maybe a hidden group that was against Minato's policies and now they see Naruto as a threat. Another could be that Naruto discovers a new jutsu that Minato was developing but never completed, which changes the power dynamics in the village.
In this fanfiction, Naruto might finally get the fatherly guidance he always craved from the Fourth Hokage. Maybe the Fourth Hokage would teach Naruto some long - lost jutsu that only he knew. It could also be a chance for Naruto to understand his father's sacrifices on a deeper level.
It's really hard to say. The Fourth Hokage was incredibly powerful, with his Flying Thunder God Technique and all. But Naruto has the Nine - Tails' power and has grown a lot. If it was a fair fight, it might depend on who has the better strategy. The Fourth is more experienced in combat, but Naruto has that raw power. So it could go either way.
Maybe Naruto has always idolized the Hokage in secret. He could be studying the ways of past Hokages on his own, trying to learn their leadership skills and jutsu. For example, he might be secretly practicing Minato's Flying Thunder God Technique because he admires his father so much.
The fanfiction could be about Naruto's struggle to adjust to a normal life after being Hokage. He might feel a bit lost without the constant stream of paperwork and decision - making. So, he starts to explore his hobbies, like fishing. Meanwhile, he still has to deal with some remnants of old enemies who are trying to take advantage of his retirement, and he has to use his skills and influence in a different way to protect Konoha.
One option is a new, original villain created just for this fanfiction. This villain could be someone who wants to rewrite history and prevent the Fourth Hokage from ever becoming Hokage. So they target Naruto as he is the son of the Fourth Hokage. They might have some sort of time - traveling or reality - warping powers.
Yes, in many fanfictions, Naruto is often depicted as a huge fan of the Fourth Hokage. After all, the Fourth Hokage is his father. Naruto grows up idolizing the Fourth Hokage's heroic deeds and wishes to be like him.
It could be that in this fanfiction, Naruto has been influenced by some false information about the Fourth Hokage. Some villains might have spread lies about the Fourth Hokage's actions, and Naruto, being young and naive in the story, believes those lies and thus starts to hate the Fourth Hokage.
One possible plot could be Naruto dealing with the post - war reconstruction. He might focus on rebuilding the village, strengthening relations with other villages, and also mentoring the new generation of ninjas. For example, he could start new training programs inspired by his own experiences.
