In this fanfiction, Naruto's character development would take a different path. Growing up with the Yamanaka, he would be exposed to their unique family traditions and ways of thinking. This could lead to him having a more refined and strategic mindset. His relationships with other characters would also shift. For example, his interactions with Sasuke might be different as he would approach their rivalry from a different perspective. And his overall goal in life might not just be about becoming Hokage in the traditional sense, but also about upholding the values and reputation of the Yamanaka clan while achieving great things in the ninja world.
Naruto's story would be different in terms of his upbringing. Instead of the loneliness he faced in the original, with the Yamanaka, he might have a more family - oriented environment. He could be taught the values of the Yamanaka clan from an early age.
Well, Naruto could have a different personality. Growing up with the Yamanaka family, he may be more calm and calculating. The Yamanaka family values intelligence and strategy, so Naruto would be influenced by this family culture. He might not be as impulsive as in the original series and would approach problems with more thought and planning.
His personality might be more serious. Since Onoki is a no - nonsense leader, Naruto could pick up that trait. He might be less impulsive and more calculating in battles.
Naruto could be more empathetic towards the Uchiha's cause. Since Mikoto is his mother figure, he would be exposed to the Uchiha's history and their grievances from a young age. This would make him more understanding of Sasuke's later actions and more likely to try and find a peaceful solution for the Uchiha's problems.
Naruto might be more knowledgeable about the history and politics of the village. Hiruzen, being the Hokage, would surely educate Naruto on such matters. This would make Naruto more diplomatic and better able to handle complex village - related issues. He would also be more respectful of traditions and the hierarchy within the village, having been raised by the village's leader.
He might be more aloof. Since a phoenix is a rather otherworldly creature, Naruto could pick up some of its more detached qualities. He may not be as quick to make friends as in the original story, instead observing more from a distance before approaching others.
He might have an enhanced sense of smell and hearing, similar to animals that live in grassy areas. This would give him an advantage in detecting enemies or finding things. For example, he could track someone by the scent they leave on the grass.
In such a fanfiction, Naruto would likely be more self - reliant. Since he grew up in the wild without the support system of the village, he would have to fend for himself. This would make him tougher both physically and mentally. His view of friendship might be different too. He may see it as more of a pack - like bond, where loyalty is crucial. His clothing style could be more primitive, made from materials he found in the wild. And his fighting style would incorporate a lot of wild and unpredictable moves, using the environment to his advantage.
He'd be more disciplined. Samurai culture emphasizes self - control, so Naruto would be less impulsive.
He'd probably be more aggressive. The xenomorphs are aggressive creatures, so Naruto might not be as friendly as in the original story.
His relationship with Sasuke would be different. Instead of the intense rivalry based on power and recognition, it could be more about their different approaches to protecting the village. Naruto, with his skills from Totosai, might offer Sasuke unique weapons or tools to aid him in his missions.
