hokage of the sound village

Under Naruto as the 5th Hokage in fanfiction, the village would experience a cultural shift. Since Naruto values all kinds of people, the village would be more open to different ideas and ways of life. New forms of ninja techniques might be developed as he encourages everyone to explore their potential. Also, the village's defenses would be strengthened not just by physical means but also by the strong bonds between the villagers, which Naruto would foster.

The villagers' reaction would be a mix of excitement and some concerns. On one hand, Naruto's popularity among the younger ninjas is huge. His friends like Sakura and Shikamaru would be his biggest supporters and help him in his new role. However, some of the more traditional clans might worry that Naruto's unorthodox ways could disrupt the long - established order in the village. But over time, as Naruto shows his ability to balance his unique style with the responsibilities of the Hokage, they'd come around.

There would be a group of people who understand his decision. They might have seen how much Naruto has sacrificed and how tired he must be. They would support him in his choice to step down and hope he can finally have some peace in his life. For instance, his close friends like Shikamaru might be among those who support his decision.

Some villagers might be in shock and disbelief. Naruto has always been a part of the village, and suddenly being sealed away would be hard to accept. They might start to question the Hokage's decision.

Well, for starters, the village would become more open. Naruto has friends from all over, and he would encourage more exchange programs with other villages. This would not only strengthen their relations but also allow Konoha's ninjas to learn different techniques. In terms of internal affairs, Naruto would ensure that every ninja has an equal chance to prove themselves. He would break down the barriers between different ninja clans and create a more unified Konoha. And he would definitely put his all into protecting the village from any threats, be it from rogue ninjas or other powerful enemies.

The village would be in shock at first. Naruto was a beloved figure, so his death would be a great loss. But they would also have to accept Sasuke as Hokage. Some might be hesitant as Sasuke has a dark past. However, his actions in protecting the village in the past, like during the Fourth Shinobi War, would give him some credibility. The older generation who knew Sasuke from his early days might be more accepting, while the younger ones might be a bit scared of his cold exterior.

One plot could be that Naruto is captured by the Sound Village. Instead of being treated as an enemy, they try to convert him. They show him their training methods and how they are building a strong village. Naruto, being the curious and empathetic person he is, starts to understand their motives. He begins to think that by joining them, he can bring about change from within. So, he decides to stay and become part of the Sound Village, while still holding onto some of his Konoha values.

Orochimaru would likely be a main antagonist even if Naruto joins the Sound Village. Orochimaru has his own devious plans, and Naruto might not fully agree with them. Even though Naruto is in the village, Orochimaru could try to use Naruto for his own gain, like getting access to the Nine - Tails' power. So, Naruto would constantly be at odds with Orochimaru.

Well, the village would probably experience a shift in its overall morale. Naruto has always been a symbol of hope. After becoming Hokage post - Pain's attack in the fanfic, his presence in the leadership role could inspire the villagers to be more positive and hard - working. Also, he could introduce new training programs for the ninja in the village to make them stronger and better prepared for any threats.

Perhaps a perk is the ability to shape the future of the ninja world. As Hokage, one can inspire the younger generation of ninjas. They can create new ninja academies or training programs. They also have the power to pardon or punish ninjas according to their deeds, which helps in maintaining law and order in the village.
