Well, he might use it in a more strategic way, just like the 3rd Hokage. Maybe he would send out clones not just for a direct attack but to create distractions. The 3rd Hokage used his clones to mislead his opponents and set up traps. Naruto could do the same. He could make the clones seem like the real target while he prepares a powerful Rasengan or some other jutsu from a hidden position.
In a fanfiction where Naruto is trained by the 3rd Hokage, one possible plot could be that Naruto would gain a more traditional and structured form of training. The 3rd Hokage, being a highly experienced and wise ninja, might focus on Naruto's chakra control from the start. This could lead to Naruto mastering basic jutsus more quickly. He might also be taught more about the history and values of the Hidden Leaf village at an earlier stage, which could shape his understanding of being a ninja differently compared to his original self - taught journey.
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.
It's really hard to say. Naruto has his powerful jutsu like the Rasengan and his ability to use the Nine - Tails' chakra. But the Hokage also has a vast amount of experience and unique jutsu of their own. If it's an early - days Naruto fighting an experienced Hokage like the Third Hokage, the Hokage might have the upper hand. But if it's a fully - powered Naruto from later in the series, he could be a tough opponent for any Hokage.
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.
He shows decisive leadership. Just as the 3rd Hokage made quick decisions in battle, Naruto would too. He would assess the situation rapidly and direct his comrades if there are any. He'd know when to attack and when to hold back, and his confidence would inspire those around him.
If Naruto was trained by the 3rd Hokage in fanfiction, his character would develop in a more disciplined way. He would likely be more respectful of the ninja traditions and hierarchy in the village. His hot - headedness might be toned down as the 3rd Hokage would instill in him the importance of patience and strategy. Naruto would also become more confident in his abilities, not just because of his new skills, but also because of the support and guidance of the respected Hokage.
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.
In fanfiction, Naruto's rule as the 5th Hokage might be full of positive changes. He would probably focus on improving relationships between the different ninja clans in the village. He'd also likely invest a lot in training the new generation of ninjas, using his own experiences to teach them about perseverance and the importance of friendship.
Well, it depends on the specific fanfiction. Some fanfictions might explore alternate storylines where Naruto doesn't become the Hokage at all. Maybe he decides to pursue a different path in life, like focusing on being a teacher or an explorer. However, in a large number of fanfictions, he does achieve his goal of becoming the Hokage because it's such an iconic and desired outcome for fans who want to see his journey to the top in different ways.
