If Naruto were to join Orochimaru in fanfiction, it would be a huge deviation from the original story. Naruto's values of loyalty and friendship would be put to the test. He might start to see the world from Orochimaru's perspective, which is often self - serving. This could also mean that Naruto would be involved in Orochimaru's plans to gain immortality, perhaps even becoming a part of his body - swapping experiments in some extreme cases.
In this type of fanfiction, it might also be that Naruto joins Orochimaru to spy on him. The Hidden Leaf Village realizes they need to know Orochimaru's plans from the inside. Naruto, being the brave and somewhat reckless one, volunteers for the mission. He endures Orochimaru's experiments and teachings while secretly sending information back to the village. Eventually, when the time is right, he betrays Orochimaru and uses the knowledge he gained against him.
Naruto's character would likely become more conflicted. He has always been on the side of good, and joining Orochimaru, even if for a good reason, would put him in a morally gray area. His view of power might change as he is exposed to Orochimaru's unorthodox ways of obtaining it.
The story could develop in a dark direction. Naruto might start to learn Orochimaru's jutsus. His personality could become more cynical. He'd be cut off from his usual support system in Konoha.
One possible plot could be that Naruto, feeling ostracized in Konoha due to his jinchuriki status, decides to join Orochimaru. Orochimaru, seeing Naruto's potential, trains him in some dark and forbidden jutsus. Naruto might start to change, becoming more cynical. He could use his newfound powers against those in Konoha who once shunned him, leading to a series of battles between him and his former friends like Sasuke and Sakura.
One possible plot twist could be that Sakura initially joins Orochimaru to gain more power to protect her friends, but she soon discovers that Orochimaru has ulterior motives regarding her unique chakra abilities. For example, he might want to use her as a vessel for some dark jutsu. Another twist could be that Orochimaru's henchmen start to develop loyalty towards Sakura instead of him because of her strong will and medical skills. This could lead to a split within Orochimaru's group, with some siding with Sakura and others remaining with Orochimaru.
His character would likely become more conflicted. He has always been a positive and determined person, but being around Orochimaru would expose him to a lot of darkness. He might start to question his own beliefs and values. For example, he may become more ruthless in battle as he adopts some of Orochimaru's combat styles.
Well, in some versions, Naruto might use his new and improved Rasengan techniques. He could have combined it with his Sage Mode powers to overpower Orochimaru. Maybe he also uses his quick thinking and the element of surprise, since Orochimaru is always so full of his own schemes.
Kabuto is also common. He was Orochimaru's right - hand man. In fanfiction, he could be used to either further Orochimaru's plans against Naruto or he could have a change of heart and help Naruto against Orochimaru. His medical skills and knowledge of Orochimaru's secrets make him an interesting addition to the story.
Yes, there might be some fanfictions with such a plot. In the Naruto universe, it's a very wild and out - of - the - box concept. Some fanfiction writers like to explore such non - canon relationships to create unique storylines. However, it's not part of the original Naruto story.
