Naruto's friends could also be of great help. Sasuke, despite their complex relationship, might have some knowledge or abilities that could contribute. Sakura, with her medical skills and her growth as a ninja, could support Naruto in his training. And even his other friends like Shikamaru, who is known for his intelligence, could come up with strategies for Naruto to better approach the task of controlling the Nine - Tails. The entire Konoha village in a way could also be seen as a helper, as it provides the environment and resources for Naruto's growth.
In this fanfiction, Naruto probably has to first learn about the nature of the Nine - Tails' power. He may start by exploring his own family history related to the Nine - Tails. Then, he could encounter some challenges like the Nine - Tails' resistance to being controlled. But Naruto, with his determination, might find a way to communicate with it. For example, he could enter his mind - scape and have a direct conversation with the Nine - Tails. This could be a major turning point in his journey to control it.
Maybe through new jutsu or abilities. The fanfiction could give Naruto some unique power that allows him to communicate or negotiate with the Nine - Tails on a different level. He could use this power to show the Nine - Tails a different perspective, like the potential for harmony between them instead of constant struggle.
In some fanfictions, when Naruto is sick and the Nine - Tails is involved, it could be a situation where the Nine - Tails' chakra is affected too. Maybe Naruto's illness weakens his control over the Nine - Tails' power, causing some unexpected leakage of chakra. This could attract the attention of enemies who sense the unusual chakra fluctuations.
Well, initially, Naruto might show kindness towards the Nine - Tails despite it being a powerful and somewhat feared entity. He could try to communicate with it on a deeper level. The Nine - Tails, in turn, might be intrigued by Naruto's tenacity. As time passes, they begin to trust each other more. Naruto may share his dreams and fears with the Nine - Tails, and the Nine - Tails might start to see Naruto as someone worthy of its friendship.
Yes, in some fanfictions, Naruto is often depicted as having a very special connection to the Nine - Tails that goes beyond the normal relationship in the original story. For example, he might be able to fully control the Nine - Tails' power in ways not shown in the canon, or they could have a mental bond that allows for unique forms of communication and cooperation.
No, such a concept is completely against the original Naruto lore and is inappropriate. In the Naruto series, the Nine - Tails is a powerful chakra - based entity, not something that can be involved in that kind of situation in the context of the original story.
Another unique exploration could be through a shared goal that is not related to the main Naruto plot. For example, they both want to protect a special place in the spirit world that has significance for the Nine - Tails. To do this, they have to work together in a way that they haven't before. Naruto has to use his human skills and the Nine - Tails has to use its tailed - beast powers in harmony. This would show a different side of their relationship, one based on mutual respect for each other's abilities.
To develop the baby nine - tails, it could be given a unique personality trait such as being very empathetic. So, it can not only feel Naruto's emotions but also those of other villagers. This causes it to try and bridge the gap between Naruto and the villagers who fear it. It might go out of its way to show the villagers that it means no harm, which in turn would make for an interesting character arc as it tries to change the perception of the nine - tails in the village.
A very unique way to develop their relationship would be if they could communicate without words. It could be like an instinctual understanding between them. For example, in the heat of battle, Naruto just knows what the Nine - Tails wants him to do and vice versa. This could start with small moments, like Naruto instinctively knowing when the Nine - Tails is in a bad mood or wants some space, and over time, it could grow into a very strong and unique bond that no one else in the ninja world has.
