[The flames immediately erupted on your body. Hashirama quickly pulled you out, extinguishing the fire on you.]
[Then, he was dumbfounded.]
[Although the fire burned your clothes, it caused no damage to your body.]
["Thank goodness you're not hurt, hahaha, what a relief." Hashirama showed an expression of surviving a disaster.]
[But beside him, Tobirama looked at you thoughtfully.]
'Really troublesome.'
Takumi felt both amused and exasperated.
But this was due to the talent's influence.
Without this talent, little Takumi wouldn't be seeking danger, nor would so many incidents occur.
[Tobirama realized you might have a unique talent and proposed conducting experiments to test it.]
[Then, Tobirama was soundly beaten by Hashirama.]
["He's our brother! You want to experiment on him?!" Hashirama was furious.]
[Though beaten by his brother, Tobirama stubbornly clung to what he saw and proceeded with the tests anyway.]
[You didn't resist his tests, in fact, you quite enjoyed them.]
[Initially, Tobirama used the flame from a torch to burn your palm.]
[The flame temperature was high, but you felt nothing, and your body showed no signs of burns.]
[Tobirama immediately increased the flame's intensity.]
[First using firewood, then furnace fire for forging, even finally using Fire Release Ninjutsu.]
[Tobirama discovered that no matter what kind of fire was used, it couldn't harm your body at all.]
'Tsk tsk, this talent...'
Takumi pursed his lips.
Naturally immune to Fire Release, seems a bit tailored to counter the Uchiha.
However, he's not sure if it can withstand Amaterasu.
Amaterasu is said to burn anything, so Takumi wonder how it would perform on little Takumi.
Takumi was somewhat expectant.
If he could withstand it, then he wouldn't need to worry about Itachi's Amaterasu.
[By age two, you were already obsessed with fire.]
[Hashirama also learned of your immunity to fire and stopped worrying about your behavior.]
[At this time, you awakened another talent.]
[The ability to control fire.]
[With a wave of your hand, you could draw the fire from the brazier towards you.]
[The flames, like playful spirits, danced at your fingertips and could form various shapes under your command, attracting attention.]
[But occasionally there were mistakes, setting your clothes on fire, even nearly burning down the house.]
[Because you burned too many clothes, your father stripped you of the right to wear shirts from then on, allowing only shorts for pants.]
[You didn't care, still obsessed with fire.]
[Whenever this happened, you were chased out of the house to avoid setting it on fire.]
[But even so, you still accidentally set other people's houses on fire.]
[Each time, you received stern lessons from your father, but you never corrected your behavior.]
'This fire control ability has a bit of Portgas D. Ace's flair.'
'It's a pity he can't turn his body into elements, nor generate fire from nothing.'
'But he's still young now.'
'It surely can become stronger later.'
'Talents enhance bit by bit and requires diligent training.'
'Being born into this family is already a great advantage.'
'Growing up under Hashirama and Tobirama's wings, he'll definitely grow up safely.'
'As long as he doesn't seek danger.'
[When you turned three and could begin to refine Chakra, you naturally started training in Fire Release Ninjutsu.]
[Teaching you were naturally your two good brothers, Hashirama and Tobirama.]
[Starting with the basic Great Fireball Technique.]
[Tobirama demonstrated it once. You mimicked him and actually succeeded in performing it on your first try.]
[Hashirama and Tobirama were very surprised, but given your exceptional talent shown since childhood, they quickly accepted it.]
[You learned other basic Fire Release Ninjutsu just as easily, all on the first try. Having seen the Great Fireball precedent, Hashirama and Tobirama weren't surprised.]
[Then, Tobirama increased the difficulty.]
["The next technique will be more difficult. Watch my hand seal sequence carefully, then try. With your talent, I believe you'll learn it quickly." Tobirama said seriously to you.]
["Yes!" You answered seriously, then carefully watched Tobirama's hand seal sequence before mimicking it.]
[Though it was your first attempt and the sealing speed wasn't fast, once you completed the seals, you successfully released the more difficult technique.]
[Fire Release: Great Dragon Fire Technique.]
[Tobirama's jaw dropped in surprise, and Hashirama also looked incredulous.]
[You, however, were dissatisfied with your hand seal speed and began trying to increase it, even reducing the number of seals.]
'Top-tier fire control talent, also a genius at learning Fire Release Ninjutsu.'
'I recalled the Great Dragon Fire Technique is a B-Rank Ninjutsu, right?'
'To learn it after seeing it once…'
Takumi was a bit envious of this talent.
But then he felt pleased.
'Hehe.'
'Once the simulation ends, this talent will be mine!'
Takumi believed this simulation would definitely get a high rating.
Just kidding.
With Hashirama and Tobirama around, how could the rating be low?
Impossible.
Even at the lowest, an A-rank rating should be achievable, right?
So,
Takumi was quite proud.
The stronger little Takumi performed, the prouder he felt.
[Tobirama thought he already held your talent in high regard, but the aptitude you displayed while learning still amazed him.]
[Tobirama began taking it seriously, hoping to see the limits of your talent.]
[He constantly searched for various Fire Release Ninjutsu, teaching you each one he found.]
[You lived up to his expectations. No matter how difficult the Fire Release Ninjutsu, you could learn it effortlessly on the first try.]
[This learning speed left Hashirama and Tobirama stunned and speechless.]
[Finally, a year later, you learned all the Fire Release Ninjutsu you could, at least all the ones in your memory.]
[The learning phase ended, and next came the practical combat phase.]
[Your opponents were still Hashirama and Tobirama.]
[Because of your young age, you didn't compete in Taijutsu or Genjutsu, only Ninjutsu.]
[But your aptitude in other Ninjutsu was average. Except for Fire Release, you were completely outmatched by your two brothers in all other types.]
[Only in Fire Release Ninjutsu could you overpower your two brothers. At merely four years old, you became a powerful combatant for the Senju Clan.]
To be able to face Hashirama and Tobirama head-on, even with limitations, shows little Takumi's strength at this point was not weak.
But Takumi believed little Takumi definitely wouldn't be satisfied.
Because the power little Takumi currently wielded was sufficient against ordinary Shinobi, but still insufficient against top-tier enemies.
And...
Having learned all Fire Release Ninjutsu, how to improve further became a crucial question.
[In just one year, you learned all Fire Release Ninjutsu and could even surpass your two genius brothers in Fire Release.]
[Only Amaterasu, the most powerful Fire Release Ninjutsu, is something you couldn't learn, as it wasn't an ability learnable through study.]
[This quickly made you realize you had reached a bottleneck. With nothing left to learn, your strength could no longer increase.]
[You needed other methods to enhance your power.]
[This made you think of the Great Fireball Technique used by the future Madara, which was like a wall of fire.]
['If he can do it, so can I!' You had inexplicable confidence in your talent and immediately began trying to enhance the power of your techniques.]
[The first choice was naturally the Great Fireball Technique, one of the basic techniques.]
[An ordinary Great Fireball had a diameter of only two or three meters. Even for Fire Release masters, at most it reached twenty or thirty meters.]
[But through your relentless efforts, you soon broke this record, reaching an unprecedented two hundred meters in one go.]
[When you displayed this Great Fireball, like a wall of fire, Hashirama and Tobirama's faces were completely stupefied.]
Goodness.
Madara's Great Fireball Technique probably couldn't reach that diameter either.
Two hundred meters!
What a concept!
It's bigger than two soccer fields!
With this single technique, little Takumi could hold off an entire army single-handedly!
Truly domineering!
[Thinking of Madara reminded you of his other powerful Fire Release Ninjutsu.]
[Like the Fire Release: Great Fire Annihilation, Fire Release: Great Fire Extinction, etc.]
[The future Madara's Great Fire Annihilation reached a width of three hundred meters.]
[But you immediately increased this width to five hundred meters!]
[The fireball diameter of Great Fire Extinction exceeded one hundred meters, and you directly boosted it to three hundred meters!]
[Once you performed the Fire Release: Phoenix Sage Fire Technique, it numbered over a thousand!]
[The Great Dragon Fire Technique, enhanced by you, gained ten extra dragon heads!]
[The Fire Release: Dragon Flame Release Song Technique summoned dozens of fire dragons!]
[In a short time, you enhanced all commonly used techniques, reaching levels ordinary people couldn't achieve in a lifetime.]
'This scale...'
'Not just ordinary people…'
'Even Madara probably couldn't reach this, right?'
'With this power, little Takumi alone could face an entire Shinobi Army, right?'
The Ninjutsu power is too immense and widespread!
Takumi couldn't help but click his tongue in amazement.
But the more he watched, the more excited he became.
'This will all be mine later!'
[Conflicts between the Senju and Uchiha Clans erupted, leading to all-out war.]
[Though only four years old, the talent and strength you displayed earned the clan's trust. Following Hashirama and Tobirama, you arrived on the battlefield.]
[The Uchiha Clan opposite, seeing such a young child among the Senju, burst into mocking laughter.]
["To even send out such a small child, it seems your Senju Clan is at its end." The still teenage Uchiha Madara sneered.]
