Fanfiction: Naruto Sacrifices Himself for Kurama - What Could Happen Next?

The characters' reactions would be complex. For instance, Iruka Sensei, who was like a father figure to Naruto, would be inconsolable. He has watched Naruto grow from a troublemaker to a hero, and this sacrifice would be too much to bear. Shikamaru, being Naruto's friend, would feel a mix of admiration and sadness. Admiration for Naruto's selfless act but sad that he's gone. The kids in the village who looked up to Naruto would be inspired in a way. They would want to be like Naruto and protect the things they love, even if it means sacrificing themselves.

One possibility is that Naruto's power becomes uncontrollable at first. Since Kurama is a huge source of chakra, Naruto might struggle to handle all that extra power. He could accidentally cause destruction around him. For example, his simple movements might create shockwaves that shatter nearby rocks or buildings. But as time passes, he would start to learn how to channel this newfound power for good, like using it to protect the village from a powerful enemy invasion.

One possible plot could be that in a final battle against an extremely powerful enemy, Naruto realizes that the only way to save Hinata and the entire village is by using a forbidden jutsu that will cost him his life. He makes this sacrifice with a smile on his face, knowing that Hinata and the others will be safe. Hinata is heartbroken but also determined to carry on Naruto's legacy of protecting the village.

Perhaps in the fanfiction, Naruto gives his life energy to Boruto to save him from a deadly curse. Boruto then has to deal with the newfound power within him, which is a mix of his own and his father's. He may struggle to control it at first but eventually learns to use it for good. This could also lead to a rift between Boruto and some of the villagers who blame him for Naruto's death.

Well, the Kyuubi itself would probably be changed. Naruto had a deep bond with it. His sacrifice might make the Kyuubi more empathetic towards humans. It could even decide to protect the village in Naruto's memory. On the other hand, the next generation of ninja would grow up without Naruto as their inspiration. They would have to find new heroes to look up to, and the stories of Naruto's deeds would become more like legends, with a bittersweet feeling of what could have been if he had lived.

There could be a time - travel fanfiction. Naruto, with the help of Kurama's power, accidentally travels back in time and meets a young Gaara. Naruto then tries to change Gaara's future for the better, using his knowledge from the future and the power of Kurama. This could create a whole new set of adventures and relationships between the three.

One possible plot development could be that Sasuke is initially in a situation where he is facing an enemy he can't defeat alone. Naruto steps in and gives his life to save Sasuke. This would lead to Sasuke being filled with guilt and a new sense of purpose. He might vow to carry on Naruto's will, perhaps trying to bring peace to the ninja world in Naruto's name. Sasuke could also start to question his own actions that led to Naruto having to sacrifice himself, and he may become more empathetic towards others as a result.

In the fanfiction, Naruto might sacrifice himself for Sakura in a more selfless act of love. For example, if Sakura is afflicted by a deadly curse and the only way to break it is for someone to transfer all their life energy to her. Naruto, being the selfless hero he is, decides to do it without hesitation. This would then explore how the other characters react to his loss and how Sakura copes with living on with Naruto's gift.

One possible consequence could be that Konoha would enter a period of deep mourning. Naruto is a beloved figure, and his sacrifice would leave a huge void. The villagers might be inspired by his selfless act to strive for a more peaceful and united Konoha. His friends, like Sasuke, might be filled with a new sense of purpose, perhaps to carry on Naruto's ideals in a more aggressive way to ensure his sacrifice wasn't in vain.

Well, it could be that Naruto sacrifices himself to seal away a dark and ancient curse that is threatening to destroy not only the ninja world but all of existence. He realizes that his unique connection to the tailed beasts and his strong willpower make him the only one who can perform this self - sacrificing sealing jutsu. So, he says his goodbyes to his friends, family, and the village he loves and gives up his life to save everyone.
