The training makes Naruto more confident in his abilities. Jiraiya constantly challenges Naruto and as Naruto overcomes these challenges, he realizes his own strength. He starts to believe in himself more, which is evident in the way he faces stronger opponents without hesitation later on. Also, Jiraiya's teachings about the ninja way and the importance of protecting those you love make Naruto more determined and focused on his goals.
Jiraiya's training in the fanfiction might focus on Naruto's inner strength as well. He could help Naruto better understand and control the Nine - Tails' power. This new - found control would give Naruto a sense of calm and authority. His character would shift from being just a loud - mouthed underdog to a more respected and powerful ninja. Naruto would also learn about loyalty and sacrifice from Jiraiya, which would shape his values.
One unique method could be training in extreme environments. Jiraiya might take Naruto to a desolate desert or a freezing tundra to test his endurance and ability to adapt. This forces Naruto to find new ways to use his chakra and skills.
One idea could be that Jiraiya focuses on Naruto's rasengan training in a more extreme way. He takes Naruto to a secluded place full of natural challenges like strong water currents or rocky terrains. There, Naruto has to constantly adapt and use his rasengan in different situations to overcome obstacles. Another plot could involve Jiraiya teaching Naruto some secret clan jutsus that he discovered during his travels, which could give Naruto an edge in future battles. And also, Jiraiya could train Naruto in stealth and espionage skills, which are essential for a shinobi but Naruto hasn't had much focus on before.
One possible plot development could be that Naruto quickly masters basic chakra control under Jiraiya's strict training. This early success might make Naruto overconfident, leading to a challenge where he realizes he still has a lot to learn. For example, he might face a powerful opponent in a sparring match arranged by Jiraiya and struggle initially, teaching him the importance of continuous training.
Naruto's character development is significant. With Jiraiya's serious training, Naruto becomes more disciplined. He learns advanced jutsu quicker and starts to understand the deeper aspects of being a ninja. His confidence grows not just in his strength but also in his decision - making abilities.
The early training would enhance Naruto's ability to empathize. Jiraiya has been through a lot in his life, and he could share his experiences with Naruto. Naruto, in turn, would be able to understand the pain and struggles of others better. This would make him not just a stronger ninja, but also a more well - rounded and compassionate person in the village.
Jiraiya might comfort Naruto by sharing his own experiences. He could tell Naruto about the times he faced difficulties and how he overcame them. For example, he might talk about his training with the toads and how he grew stronger through perseverance.
One possible reason could be that Naruto feels he has learned all he can from Jiraiya at that point. Maybe he wants to explore his own path independently and test his skills without Jiraiya's constant guidance.
Perhaps in this fanfiction, Jiraiya discovers that Naruto is going to be the cause of a major catastrophe in the future. He might have seen a prophecy or some sort of sign that convinces him Naruto has to die to prevent this. It could also be that Jiraiya has been misled by false information about Naruto, which makes him think that Naruto has become an evil force that needs to be eliminated.
