'The Unseen Hero of the 4th War' is a great one. It focuses on a character who is often overlooked in the original story but plays a crucial role in the fanfiction. The writing style is engaging and it really dives deep into the character's emotions during the chaos of the war.
Rock Lee could be an interesting main character for a Third Shinobi War fanfiction. Since he doesn't rely on ninjutsu, his unique fighting style could be a great asset during the war. We could see him face off against powerful ninjutsu users from other villages and prove that taijutsu is just as effective. Also, his unwavering determination could inspire his comrades during the dark times of the war.
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.
Kakashi would be more of a supportive figure. He has seen Naruto and Sakura grow up, and he would likely be happy for them. He might offer some advice to Naruto on how to handle this new relationship, especially considering the challenges they might face as ninjas. For Sakura, he could give her words of encouragement to be true to her feelings.
Sasuke might initially be a bit aloof but secretly be happy for them. He's always had a complex relationship with Naruto and Sakura, and deep down, he would see that they are good for each other.
One idea could be focusing on a young and inexperienced ninja who gets thrust into the chaos of the Third Shinobi War and has to quickly learn to survive. Maybe they form an unlikely alliance with a ninja from an enemy village because they both realize the senselessness of the war at a personal level.
One idea could be exploring the backstories of minor characters during the war. For example, how the normal shinobi were feeling and what they were doing on the sidelines. Another could be a what - if scenario where a different alliance was formed among the shinobi villages.
His friends' reactions would vary. Hinata would be really happy for Naruto. She would be gentle with the little girl and offer to make her clothes or cook for her. Kiba might be a bit skeptical at first, thinking Naruto might not be fully prepared for raising a child. But when he sees how much Naruto cares, he would be more accepting. Choji would probably be excited and share his snacks with the little girl right away, showing his warm - heartedness towards Naruto's new family member.
A civilian who somehow gets involved in the war and discovers they have latent shinobi abilities. They could start as a clumsy and inexperienced character but grow into a powerful force.
One idea could be focusing on a young shinobi who is an unknown hero during the war. They might use some unique and forgotten jutsu to turn the tide in crucial battles.
