Naruto Naruto Idea

Well here I'm again with another idera. I really should start writing my other ideas first but who cares ^^

The idea concerns two main changes. First is Narutos Age. In the story he should be about 18 when the other rookies are 12. So his birth and the attack of the Kyuubi have to be 6 years before canon or everyone else is just born 7 years later, not that it makes much of a difference. I only have to figure out what will change or have an impact on the story (like Sandaime being even older and not being able to seal Orochimaru's arms, or Kabuto being spied one as he has failed again and again and the Hokage is becoming suspicious.)

Since he is way too old to become a genin with them, he would be a chuunin, because the promotion to chuunin is made through the tournament, I assume jounins have to be promoted by the Hokage and the Council and since they aren't too fond of Naruto, he is stuck as a chuunin for now. Let's say he was in Kakashi's first team (I think that without Sasuke in the team, Kakashi would be able to train all members of the team better).

With one genin less, this would leave a team one member short, so I thought if you had to make a team with only two members, who do you take? The best of course. But such a team would also need more training since they have to work harder than a normal team.

To ensure that this works out the hokage and the council decide that Team Seven shall be: Jounin Sensei Hatake Kakashi, Chuunin Sensei Uzumaki Naruto, Genin Students: Uchiha Sasuke, Haruno Sakura.

So if Naruto wants to become a Jounin he has to train Sakura to A) a level where she will be able to pass the Chuunin Exam and B ) a level where she can take down Uchiha Sasuke if he decides to go rogue. (or rouge, no way will the village let the Uchihas die out because the last offspring decides that he prefers men. ^^)

Point B is another little part of the package. Since Sasuke is the only Uchiha left and obviously deeply disturbed by Itachi's actions, he too could become a nukenin.
To prevent the last Uchiha from defecting as a Genin, they will need someone that can be close to him most of the time. His teammate.

With Kakashi training Sasuke and Naruto training Sakura while sometimes doing D-Class Missions (because of the additional training they will have less missions than other genin teams) it starts, though Sakura won't ever find out what she is training so hard for. Hell I think I will try to create a little rivalry between her and Sasuke after she realises that she could beat him :evil:

Also because Sasuke now has to spend more time with Kakashi, his personality may change a little bit. (Imagine Sasuke buried up to the neck in mud, while Kakashi sits next to him, holding his Icha-Icha Paradise for him to read and tells him to relax and enjoy his book -_- )


From there, well I have some ideas but nothing solid. Though since the Kyuubi attack happened way before Itachi's time as a ninja, the Akatsuki won't know about it being sealed inside Naruto.

Concerning his Jutsus and abilities I'm trying to find a good mix between Kakashi's training, Yondaime's Legacy and maybe a little input from Jiraiya. I will use speed as one of his main attributes (it only makes sense as it also is a good defense against the Sharingan), though the thought of Naruto using raiton jutsus is a nice one^^

Personality wise I'm meshing together canon Naruto and Kakashi's laid-back attitude. Since Kakashi was more of a sensei he had a stronger impact one Naruto. Which could also explain an aptitude for raiton jutsus, because Naruto sees the Chidori/Raikiri in action and decides that it's really cool.



Well that's it for now. Tell me what you think. Comments or ideas are welcome ^^

Not so much suggestions to offer you as questions that might help you in world building and whatnot:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

In this storyline; is Naruto wanting to be Hokage still? Or has he settled for lesser dreams? And just how well liked is he by the general populance by this point? You've already pointed out that the old farts in power (old people can carry grudges -forever- Gives em something to hold onto insteada croaking or something like that) are still against him climbing the ranks, thus his still being a chuunin. If he's only a chuunin because of said old farts, but skilled as a jounin are you going to make him Kakashi level or perhaps more powerfull (afterall before Kishi's brain ran for the hills it seemed like Naruto had a huge rate of improvement whenever paired with a competent teacher)

Heh the idea of training Sakura (who I feel almost as strongly about as GH, though not as rabidly) to be a foil to Sasuke is interesting. Didn't Red Crow have something similar in his fic Second Chances? I imagine it would take a bit of time on Naruto's part though to get her ass into gear as well as to get her to stop fawning over every step Sasuke takes. Would her second personality still be present, and if so would anything involving it happen? What route would her training take; concentrating on tai, gen or ninjutsu? Or still work on medic nin skills?

Also how will the absence of Naruto affect the other Rookies in this world (well outside of Hinata I can't see how it would really effect the others, but thats just me) and will the story feature them at all, or focus more on Team 7 and their antics?

Thats all I can think of, hope it's of some use.

Hmm now that's a bunch of good questions, give me a minute to think^^

Yes Naruto still wants to become Hokage, but he has taken Kakashi's lesson to heart (that one about the trash and so on^^). So frankly if he thinks he's of more use as a normal nin for now he will hold his place. Though he still strives to reach his goal, just not as extreme as in canon.
Powerwise I'm trying to make him capable of doing his duties. This doesn't mean that he will be able to beat Kakashi or Jiraiya or Orochimaru just like that. At least not on his own, but hey, he's a shinobi, there are many tools for him to help him. So expect him to use some nifty tools and weapons.

Let's say that I have something planned that will enable him hold of some of the more powerfull enemies, but he won't take them with him everywhere he goes.
It's like Kakashi's Chidori, something for assasinations or extremely dangerous situations. That habit will actually come to bite him in the ass in Wave Country. :D

A major part of the story will concentrate on the interaction of Naruto and Sakura as teacher and student, with a a lot of manipulation on Naruto's side, as ordered by the Hokage.
Inner Sakura. Well. Got to admit that I totally forgot about her :blink:
But now that I think about it she would make a nice counter for the hypnotic part of the sharingan^^. Hell, she could even work against the Tsukiyomi.

for the next 70 hours you will constantly get stabbed by these swords"
Inner Sakura appears

Think again pretty boy cracks her knuckles For the next 10 minutes I'm going to kick the **** out of you, bishonen no baka

Oh this has potential, thanks for reminding me Mighty Bob :hail:

Hmm absence is maybe a bit too strong of a word. Hell, he may even have more of an impact than in canon, though I would like to keep him away from the rookie nine till the day of the chuunin exam (where he will come with them, but only so that they have a 3-men team, he won't acutally help them, well till they meet Orochimaru of course)^^


So if you have any other querstions feel free to ask. It helps me a lot :yay:
