In this fanfiction, Naruto could be less brash. Kushina would teach him patience and the importance of strategy. His sense of humor might also be different. Instead of using it as a defense mechanism all the time, it could be more of a positive, light - hearted addition to his personality. Since he'd grow up with a mother figure, he might be more nurturing towards others as well. He could be the kind of person who looks out for the well - being of his friends and comrades in a more motherly way, just like how Kushina would have taken care of him.
He'd probably be more confident. Kushina's love and support would make him feel secure. He wouldn't have that same loneliness - driven need for attention like in the original story.
Naruto might be more in touch with his emotions. Kushina would encourage him to express himself. So, instead of always putting on a brave face, he could be more open about his fears and hopes. He'd also likely be more respectful of the Uzumaki clan traditions as Kushina would instill that in him from a young age. This would shape his values and how he interacts with others. For example, he might be more hesitant to use certain techniques that go against Uzumaki beliefs. And he'd be less likely to make rash decisions as he'd have Kushina's guidance, which would help him think things through more carefully.
Naruto would likely be more confident. Growing up with his parents, he wouldn't face the same neglect and ostracism. So he wouldn't have to constantly seek attention in a loud or brash way.
His personality would likely be more stoic. Kisame is a rather reserved and tough character, and growing up with him would probably make Naruto less exuberant. He might not be as quick to trust others as he is in the original story.
His sense of humor would be different. Anko has a dry and sometimes dark sense of humor. So Naruto might crack jokes that are a bit more on the sarcastic side and less goofy. For instance, instead of his usual over - the - top pranks, he might play more calculated and sneaky pranks inspired by Anko. Also, he would be more confident in his own abilities from an earlier age, as Anko would encourage him to trust his instincts.
Naruto could have a greater control over his chakra. Since Kushina would be there to guide him, he would likely avoid some of the pitfalls he faced in the original story. His physical strength might also be enhanced as Kushina could train him in ways that utilize his Uzumaki bloodline more effectively.
If raised by Kushina, Naruto would have a more nurturing personality. Since Kushina is a loving mother figure, Naruto would grow up seeing and learning from her kindness. He'd be less likely to seek attention through pranks as he'd already have the love and attention he needed at home. His self - esteem would be higher, and he might be more diplomatic in his interactions with others, having learned from Kushina's way of handling things.
Naruto might be more assertive. Since Kushina was a strong - willed person, Naruto would likely inherit some of that. He would be less likely to be pushed around and more likely to stand up for himself earlier. Also, he might be more family - oriented as he would have grown up with a loving mother figure in Kushina.
He could be more secretive. Lex Luthor often has his own hidden agendas. Growing up with him, Naruto might learn to keep his plans and thoughts to himself more. This would be a departure from the open - book Naruto we know, who usually wears his heart on his sleeve. However, he would still have his core of kindness, but it might be expressed in more subtle ways. For instance, instead of loudly proclaiming his desire to protect everyone, he might quietly work behind the scenes to achieve the same goal.
Naruto's training would likely be more intense and survival - based. Zabuza was a tough and unforgiving trainer in his own right. He might push Naruto to his physical and mental limits from a young age, making Naruto more resilient in combat. For instance, instead of the relatively structured training in the Hidden Leaf, Naruto could be thrown into real - life combat situations early on to learn quickly.
He'd probably be more aggressive. The xenomorphs are aggressive creatures, so Naruto might not be as friendly as in the original story.
He'd be more disciplined. Samurai culture emphasizes self - control, so Naruto would be less impulsive.
