A really interesting fanfiction is 'The Forgotten Beginning'. It delves into a scenario where Naruto and Sasuke are friends long before the academy. They grow up side by side, and this early friendship shapes their characters in unique ways. For example, Sasuke becomes more open and Naruto becomes more focused because of their influence on each other. It's a different take on the Naruto - Sasuke relationship that gives a fresh perspective on the whole story.
In a fanfiction where Naruto befriends Sasuke early, the Akatsuki's plans might be disrupted. Since Sasuke would be less likely to go rogue in search of power, the Akatsuki would have a harder time recruiting him. Also, the relationship between Naruto and Sasuke could inspire other characters. For example, Sakura might see a different side of Sasuke and Naruto's bond could make her more determined to be a better ninja herself. The whole ninja world dynamic would be different as their friendship would have a ripple effect on many events and characters.
One possible plot could be that Naruto discovers a hidden ability within himself that allows him to communicate with Kurama on a deeper level much earlier. This leads to them teaming up to protect the village from a new and unexpected threat. For example, a group of rogue ninjas who have a special jutsu that can disrupt the chakra flow of the entire village. With Kurama's power and Naruto's determination, they manage to defeat the rogues and in the process, their friendship becomes stronger.
One great example could be 'The Bond Reformed'. In this fanfic, Naruto uses his unwavering determination to break through Sasuke's cold exterior. He constantly reaches out to Sasuke, sharing memories of their time together as kids. Another is 'A New Path'. Here, Naruto and Sasuke are forced to work together on a mission outside the Hidden Leaf. Through this, they start to understand each other better and their friendship slowly rebuilds. There's also 'Friendship's Redemption' where Naruto has to save Sasuke from a new enemy, and in the process, their friendship is strengthened like never before.
Well, it might lead to a different relationship with the villagers. If Naruto befriends Kurama early, he might not be as ostracized. Kurama could help Naruto show his power in a more controlled way, earning him respect rather than fear. This would change the whole dynamic of how Naruto grows up in the village and how he views himself and his place among the people.
One possible plotline could be that Naruto and Kurama start training together early on. This would give Naruto a huge power boost right from the start. He could learn to control Kurama's chakra in new and unique ways, leading to him being able to perform more advanced jutsu earlier in the story.
There's a fanfiction idea like 'Naruto and Female Sasuke: Love Beyond the Ninja Way'. In this, their love might not follow the traditional ninja code. Maybe they start as rivals but gradually realize their feelings for each other. It could show how their love changes them as individuals and as ninjas. Additionally, the story could involve side characters reacting to their relationship, some supporting it while others trying to break it apart.
It can make Naruto stronger earlier. Since he and Kurama are friends, he can access Kurama's power more easily. This would change the power balance in battles. For example, in a fight against Orochimaru, Naruto could use Kurama's power more effectively and defeat him sooner.
He would be more confident. Without the constant internal struggle with Kurama, Naruto would have a more stable mental state. He could focus more on his ninja goals and less on suppressing Kurama's negative influence.
One great Sasuke x Fem Naruto pregnant fanfiction could be 'The Unexpected Bond'. It beautifully explores their relationship when Naruto discovers she's pregnant. It delves into how Sasuke, who is usually aloof, becomes very protective and caring. Another one might be 'A New Beginning' which focuses on how they adjust to the idea of becoming parents and the challenges they face together in the ninja world while expecting a child.
A fanfiction could be centered around Sasuke being injured and Naruto taking care of him in bed, while they both think about Itachi. This scenario can bring out the strong bond between Naruto and Sasuke, and also show how Itachi's influence is always there in their relationship, with lots of angst and friendship - building moments.
