In fanfiction, Jiraiya seeing Naruto as Hokage can be a very emotional moment. It could be a vision Jiraiya has in a story where he's still alive, or perhaps it's a memory in a story set after his death. This often shows Jiraiya's pride in Naruto and his belief in Naruto's potential to lead the village.
Their relationship would be very strong. Jiraiya would see Naruto as not just a student, but also as a connection to Minato. He would be strict but also very affectionate. Naruto would look up to Jiraiya as a father figure, since he never really had one. They would share many adventures together, with Jiraiya teaching Naruto about life, love, and ninjutsu.
One possible reason could be that in this fanfiction, Jiraiya might be preoccupied with other important matters. Maybe he has a secret mission that demands his full attention and he simply doesn't have the time to train Naruto. Another reason could be that there is some sort of conflict or misunderstanding between them that prevents Jiraiya from taking Naruto under his wing. For example, Naruto might have unknowingly offended Jiraiya in some way, or there could be a prophecy or external force that is keeping them apart for the time being.
In the Naruto universe, bringing someone back from the dead is extremely difficult. While there are some jutsu like the Edo Tensei that can reanimate the dead, it has its limitations and is often considered dark magic. For Naruto to revive Jiraiya, he would need to find a way around the natural laws of life and death. However, in fanfiction, anything is possible as it allows for creative interpretations and bending of the established rules.
Jiraiya's reaction might be complex. He might be in awe of Naruto's new power but also sad about his departure. He could see it as a natural progression in Naruto's journey, yet still feel a pang of loneliness. He might start to reflect on his own life and training methods, wondering if he could have done something differently to keep Naruto with him. At the same time, he would be eager to see what Naruto will achieve in the world with his newfound abilities.
They often make him seem irresponsible. For example, in normal Naruto story, Jiraiya is seen as a mentor to Naruto. But in bashing fanfiction, he may be shown as being more interested in his own adventures and leaving Naruto alone at crucial times.
It could be Orochimaru. Since Orochimaru has a long - standing feud with Jiraiya and is always up to no good. If Naruto ditches Jiraiya, Orochimaru might see this as an opportunity to manipulate Naruto. He could try to convince Naruto that Jiraiya was holding him back and that he can offer Naruto more power, all while having his own evil plans for Naruto.
One common theme is mentorship. Jiraiya was Naruto's mentor, so many fanfictions explore how his teachings shaped Naruto's growth as a ninja. For example, Naruto might use a specific jutsu Jiraiya taught him in a unique way to overcome an enemy.
One possibility in a fanfiction where Jiraiya is alive could be that he returns during the Fourth Great Ninja War. He could use his vast knowledge and powerful jutsu to turn the tide of the war. Maybe he teams up with Naruto again and helps him master new forms of the Rasengan or other powerful techniques.
In this fanfiction concept, it could lead to a really interesting dynamic. Jiraiya is a powerful and eccentric ninja. He could teach Naruto some really unique jutsu, like more advanced forms of Rasengan. And their relationship would be filled with Jiraiya's boisterous personality clashing and also complementing Naruto's determination.
