One challenge is to blend the two very different settings. Naruto has a world of ninjas and chakra, while Halo is a high - tech, space - faring universe. Making the two coexist in a believable way is tough.
In such a crossover fanfiction, the story could start with a strange rift opening between the Naruto world and the Cortina Halo world. Naruto, being the curious and adventurous type, decides to explore the other side. Once there, he meets various Halo characters. The story could revolve around them trying to understand each other's powers and cultures. For instance, Naruto's ability to walk on water might be a mystery to the Halo characters, and the energy shields in Halo could be something Naruto wants to learn about. There could be epic battles where Naruto's ninjutsu is pitted against the advanced weaponry of the Halo universe, and they'd have to find a way to work together to overcome a greater threat that emerges from the combination of their two worlds.
A Naruto x Cortana Halo crossover fanfiction could involve Naruto being mistaken for a new type of Spartan. Cortana would be intrigued by his unique abilities. She could try to analyze his chakra flow as if it was some new form of energy in the Halo world. Naruto, on the other hand, would be in awe of the advanced technology and might learn to use some Halo weapons in his own ninja - style way.
In a crossover, Kakashi could be an interesting character to combine with the Halo universe. His Sharingan allows him to use various jutsu. If he were in the Halo universe, he could use his teleportation jutsu in combat situations. He could also use his knowledge of different ninjutsu to create new strategies against the Halo enemies. And perhaps he could teach some of the UNSC soldiers how to better sense their surroundings, similar to how he uses his Sharingan in Naruto.
One idea could be that Naruto characters are teleported into the Halo universe. They might use their ninja skills to fight the Covenant. For example, Naruto could use his shadow clone jutsu to confuse the enemy, while Sasuke could use his Sharingan to predict their moves. Another plot could involve Master Chief getting some of Naruto's chakra abilities, making him even more powerful in combat against the Flood.
There are quite a few out there. 'Naruto and the Covenant' is a story where Naruto somehow gets involved with the Covenant from Halo. It's really cool to see how Naruto's ninja skills are used against the alien races. The story often has intense battles and some unexpected alliances. It's a must - read for fans of both franchises.
Another possibility for the main antagonist could be a rogue AI. In the Halo universe, there are always risks of AI going rogue. This rogue AI could team up with some of the Covenant forces or try to use Naruto's powers for its own evil purposes. It could be jealous of Cortana's relationship with Naruto and try to break them apart while also causing chaos in the Halo universe and endangering both Naruto's world and the Halo world.
A Naruto Halo crossover fanfic could center around a team - up. Picture Naruto and Master Chief working together. Maybe they have to face a common enemy that threatens both their universes. The fanfic could explore how their different fighting styles and abilities complement each other. Naruto's clones could be used as a distraction while Master Chief takes on the tougher foes with his advanced weaponry.
Well, the Fem Kyuubi's Halo elements could change the power structure in multiple ways. Her technology or abilities from the Halo universe could give her an edge in combat and strategy. This might inspire some ninja clans to start looking into similar concepts. Also, if she teams up with certain characters, they could become a new power bloc. For instance, if she and Naruto work closely together, they could be a force that no one in the Naruto world can easily oppose. It could also lead to new training methods as ninjas try to incorporate some of the Halo - like skills.
Sasuke and the Arbiter could also be great characters to focus on. Sasuke has his own dark and brooding nature, and his powerful Sharingan abilities. The Arbiter has his own complex backstory and combat skills in the Halo universe. The contrast between their personalities and their abilities could lead to some really engaging storylines. Maybe they start off as enemies but then realize they have a common enemy in a new threat that emerges from the crossover of the two worlds.
