#Naruto what if

[bh-52]

What if the Akatsuki weren't interested in harvesting the tailed beasts, and just wanted to provide a family for the Jinchuriki?

What if

Jiraiya was alive somehow by some random logic, and he entered the war,after he was healed, and what if he, Tsunade and Orochimaru had a team up like back in the last war, and what if Jiraiya was Hella confused by seeing Orochimaru and when he heard he had a chance of heart, Jiraiya was speechless that he almost fell, and he kept an eye on Orochimaru and team taka during the battle.

Naruto burst in tears and gave his master a hit in the stomach shocking the whole battlefield, expect for his friends who knew Naruto who do something like that.

Jiraiya was stun to see his sensei who was also shocked to see his team fighting together on the same side, he wanted to give Orochimaru a chance but he had mixed feelings. Minato was shocked and so was Jiraiya.

It took Jiraiya a moment for him to process what exactly is going on. On the battlefield, because he has so many questions to the points he'd stopped everyone on the battlefield to explain everything. Naruto of course shouted it wasn't the time.but explained everything anyway.

Naruto felt he was dreaming his master is alive and he asked sakura to punch him just in case.he could not help but look at Jiraiya until he came to his senses.

Jiraiya was the only one on the battlefield to have full energy and no energy, he was standing next to Naruto when Obito sent a spike to him, Naruto when he fell, Jiraiya used his toad to protect his student, by doing this, Neji is still alive.

Tsunade was speechless and felt like punching Jiraiya for making her cry and worried.

When everyone saw the legendary sanin in action with their student alongside them fighting, everyone was frozen in one spot.

After the war,

Jiraiya didn't leave Orochimaru's side, so basically every silly scene Orochimaru has Jiraiya was there instead of yamato.

When the war ended, the og sanin met up, it was very awkward. That you could hear a pin drop. Jiraiya tried to lighten the mood, but Tsunade wasn't buying the whole change of heart thing, even if Orochimaru saved her life. Orochimaru was silent.

Headacon.

When Orochimaru heard of Jiraiya's death, he was shocked, even though he severed all bonds, deep down,in his dark soul he was sad to hear his old friend/teammate was dead, so, instead of dwelling on him, Orochimaru continued with whatever he was doing and put all emotions away in a box and threw the box and key away.

After the war, and turning good, when no one was around, he would go to Jiraiya's grave, instead of talking he would give him sake. When the Frist came,he said nothing he did want to apologise, but he couldn't he said nothing.

Tsunade and one point found Orochimaru at the Jiraiya's grave, she was supisous and ready to fight, when she saw he wasn't planning anything she, went over and next to him, she kept her guard up and of course she threatened him, but Orochimaru said nothing.

Tsunade when she saw Orochimaru changed, couldn't trust him like she used to, and he knew that. over time, the two would go to Jiraiya's grave. Tsunade still had mixed feelings.

Naruto What Ifs #1:

What if Kakashi helped Itachi before the Uchiha Massacre happened?

Welcome to my new series in which I write about my favorite Naruto theories. I most likely have undiagnosed ADHD so I can’t promise consistency but these theories will be DAMN GOOD, so buckle in, send me your theories, and let’s get into it.

Potential TW: mentions of characters’ canonical s*icides

Where in the timeline are we?

Post Shisui’s death, pre-Uchiha massacre. Itachi is still a subordinate of Kakashi, and later still gets promoted to ANBU captain. I will explain why in this post.

How does this play out?

We see the potential for a friendship between Kakashi and Itachi when Kakashi takes Itachi under his wing in the ANBU and trains him. Kakashi shows a level of concern for Itachi (questioning Lord Third whether or not he’s too young for the ANBU), and Itachi shows a level of admiration for Kakashi as he learns under him.

After Shisui’s death, Itachi withdraws into himself and Kakashi notices. He’s very perceptive, and Itachi is usually very reticent, so when he’s contemplating Shisui’s dying wish to protect the village and the Uchiha name with his newly bequeathed eyes and asks Kakashi about his own entrusted Sharingan (given by Obito), Kakashi instantly sees through Itachi’s question and linked it to Shisui’s death instantly.

Kakashi is intelligent, and so of course he would put it together. He asks Itachi if everything is okay. When Itachi closes off and just lies and says “I’m fine”, that’s where this theory diverges from canon.

I think Kakashi left it at that because he was still very much wallowing in his own trauma, and couldn’t devote much energy to it. Understandable, no blame intended.

BUT let’s say for the sake of this theory that Kakashi understood Itachi, after losing his best friend, was most certainly not fine, and decided to take it upon himself to help him because he too had lost multiple best friends, so he understood Itachi completely. Not to mention, Shisui’s official cause of death was suicide, which is the exact way Sakumo died. Kakashi at this point in the timeline is the only person who could have understood Itachi. It’s my headcanon that had they communicated with each other more and grown closer, they would have had a very strong and unbreakable friendship. They have uncanny similarities in my opinion.

So, Kakashi follows Itachi around/snoops around for information on him.

(I also like to think that he would have known Shisui pretty well for a few years at least, they were both ANBU when Shisui died, so I believe Kakashi knew his character enough to know there was something strange about his suicide. This would have also pushed him to look into the issue more.)

He knows at this point that the Uchiha are under suspicion because of his surveillance shifts. It wouldn’t be much of a stretch to say that he could put two and two together and understand that Itachi and Shisui are at the epicenter of the conflict between the Leaf and the Uchiha. His uncertainty about Itachi’s initiation into the ANBU when he was just 11 years old is enough for me to come to the conclusion that Kakashi knew Itachi’s premature promotion was partly political.

To further this, Kakashi himself was promoted so quickly and graduated early partly because they needed more fighters for the war. Yes, he was talented, but the second Hokage created the academy to keep children out of war, yet pre-mature graduation was a loophole the Leaf used when shinobi were needed. This was the case for Itachi as well. He was promoted prematurely in a time of peace, which in my head, should have set off alarm bells in Kakashi’s head.

So, with all of that background knowledge in Kakashi’s mind, when Itachi is promoted to ANBU captain at age thirteen, not long after Shisui’s death, ding ding ding, something is very wrong.

There’s evidence that he had the feeling something was wrong. He warned Itachi not to get involved with the Leaf’s politics. He knew to some degree that Itachi was being positioned for a singular purpose.

So, what if he’d have looked into it more of his own volition? Like he did when he discovered Tenzo, the Wood Style user?

Hiruzen has him walk into the Uchiha compound, he gets mega-bad vibes, feels the need to do something about it. How does he find out?

Well, for one, if he and Itachi had opened up more to each other and formed a working kinship, Itachi could have confided in him. If this happened, I have no doubt Kakashi would have helped him. Especially since he was already aware of Danzo’s tendency to scheme and manipulate (as he’d tried to do to turn Kakashi against Hiruzen and assasinate him after Minato’s death, then also have Kakashi killed by Tenzo). He would have instantly been like “oh? Danzo says killing the clan is the only way to peace? Nope, not on my watch.” And he could have helped Itachi find a peaceful way to avoid the coup then and there. After all of his loss, Kakashi always found a better way and ignored authority when he found it necessary. Also, the second Itachi would have told Kakashi that Shisui died by Danzo’s orders, Kakashi would have no doubt been pissed off and sought justice. Absolutely. Damn that would be so cool to see in a what if episode.

If Itachi hadn’t confided in him, maybe Kakashi, after confessing worry to the Hokage about Itachi, would have learned the information through Hiruzen. Hiruzen granted Shisui autonomy to try and solve the issue, and he gave Kakashi classified information about Wood Style and Orochimaru’s experiments (establishing monumental trust in Kakashi) so I have no doubt he would have told Kakashi in hopes that he could have helped Itachi. At that point, after Kakashi’s persuasion, he could have stripped Danzo of his positions of power before he could order Itachi’s assassination mission.

Kakashi could have been present in negotiation meetings with Fugaku, Lord Third, and Itachi, and using his connection to Obito, could have pleaded the case of honoring his dying wish to protect the village. Maybe he could have even offered his Sharingan back as a way of showing Fugaku respect for the Uchiha.

This has been on my mind for a while. I’m even tempted to write a fic on this. If you made it this far, thank you, I hope you enjoyed. I’ll be back with more theories <3

Kakashi Hatake - What if Infinite Tsukuyomi 10 year awakening

Time for me to start makin’ Naruto art!

[r0semultiverse]

Naruto what if where the Ōtsutsuki clan is in the plans from the start. A lot of it is just oh shit it ends poorly for humanity & Earth. Some of it though is slight tweaks like Isshiki placing a karma marking on Obito and Obito becoming a vessel for Isshiki. Not sure on all the details yet, but my partner & I were talking about it on a car ride. Isshiki leads/manipulates the Akatsuki idk.

Zetsu having Kaguya’s will would go on to flee & side with Orochimaru, not wanting to be eaten by Isshiki surely recognizing his chakra signature. Orochimaru & by proxy Kabuto would go on to know about the Ōtsutsuki much sooner.

What if Naruto had 3 brothers?

[ginjaanimeloversstuff]

AU Naruto's deep angst if everything turned out for the worst.

Sakura did manage to kill Sasuke, and she killed herself after, Naruto is in deep depression, he. Don't know what to do with himself.he refused to eat Raman.

Sai, being the only teammate alive with Yamato and Kakashi, who are also shocked, Kakashi is heartbroken, but is somehow keeping it together, because he knows Naruto is depressed, and no longer himself.

Hinata who doesn't like sasuke, never wish for his death is also shocked because sakura was the who killed him and herself, want to comfort Naruto but she doesn't know how.

Shikamaru, Ino, comfort Naruto, but Ino isn't keeping it together she lost her best friend. The team who went with Sakura felt guilty, because they didn't know what sakura was planning, and couldn't look Naruto in the eye ever since.

With the war.

Because sasuke and Sakura are dead, and key helper to the war victory. many people died.

Naruto found out about the war too late by the time he arrived and all his friends were dead.
