'Damn! Just standing there made Madara submit?'
'That's too strong!'
Takumi was utterly dumbfounded on the spot.
Damn, he had evolved to the point where he didn't need to use Ninjutsu, and just standing there could kill people!
Thinking about obtaining this ability later, his eyes gleamed.
"Hurry up, no need to continue… living till old age here is enough!"
This was the first time Takumi was eager for a life to end.
[After resting in the village for two years, you ultimately couldn't control yourself.]
[Because you felt fire was your true home.]
[Your heart yearned for light and heat. Only the deep volcanic environment suited your survival.]
[You came to a volcano crater, jumped in, swam down the magma, all the way to the Earth's core.]
[The temperature here satisfied you greatly. Your temperature also increased rapidly.]
[Unknowingly, a year passed.]
[Unknowingly, forty years passed.]
[You vaguely felt you should go out and see.]
[Your changed constitution no longer had lifespan issues, but staying at the Earth's core made you lose your sense of time.]
[You wanted to see what era it was now.]
[So, you left the Earth's core, swam up through the magma, and emerged from a volcano.]
[You radiated scorching high temperature. Wherever you passed, plants withered, the earth cracked.]
[You sat in a river, and the water immediately boiled.]
[You walked towards the Land of Rain, trying to cool down with rain.]
[But you were like a red-hot branding iron, and rain hitting you instantly evaporated.]
'This...'
Takumi's worries came true.
He really would be single for life.
And it seemed, forget women, ordinary people probably couldn't even get close, right?
In that case, how to get close to girls?
Wouldn't they just get cooked before even touching them?
[Along the way, you happened to encounter Hanzo of the Salamander leading Amegakure's Shinobi to besiege the Akatsuki.]
[Your appearance shocked them because they had sealed off this area.]
[But what shocked them even more was that after you appeared, the sky stopped raining.]
["What the heck! What's up with that guy?! The temperature's too high!"]
[Countless people screamed in terror, fleeing everywhere!]
[Those who couldn't escape in time were instantly roasted by your high temperature.]
[The gloomy weather displeased you. You controlled flames to form a gigantic fireball and hurled it into the sky.]
[A 'Boom!' echoed, an unprecedented explosion of fire. The Land of Rain, after a long time, saw sunlight again. The thick cloud layer was completely evaporated by your fireball.]
[Hanzo, Konan, Yahiko... all stared dumbfounded. Hanzo's troops immediately attacked you. However, kunai and shuriken turned into molten metal before reaching you, falling to the ground.]
[Your presence prevented Hanzo from carrying out his plan, and he could only retreat.]
[Yahiko sighed in relief and intended to thank you.]
[But when he approached you, the scorching heat immediately dried his throat and rapidly cooked his skin and internal organs...]
[Yahiko died on the spot. Other Akatsuki's members, seeing this, immediately attacked you, but all who approached shared Yahiko's fate.]
[Even Konan was cooked by you.]
[You were slightly shocked, never expecting you'd bring about the Shinobi World's grand finale. But people were dead, and nothing could be done.]
[You wanted to check on Konan.]
[But the moment your hand touched her, Konan turned to ashes.]
[You finally realized you were no longer human, nor suited to live in the human world. Your high temperature would kill all living beings near you.]
[After some thought, you decided you couldn't stay on the surface.]
[You returned the way you came, back to the scorching Earth's core.]
[Then, after who knows how long an era passed.]
[Your life wasn't limited by lifespan, but your mind slowly eroded.]
[Decades, centuries, millennia passed...]
[Finally, your will dissipated, and your body melted, merging with the surroundings.]
[Your life ended here.]
[Simulation ended!]
…
Seeing this final outcome, Takumi was also somewhat shocked.
He easily destroyed the Akatsuki.
And could no longer survive on the surface, forced back underground to merge with the planet.
'Well, it's a bit tragic, but for this talent, the ending should be considered okay, right?'
He silently exhaled.
'System, start the settlement!'
[Settlement in progress...]
[Please wait...]
[Ding! This simulation rating: S!]
It didn't reach double S.
But it's understandable.
Although he successfully helped the Senju Clan suppress the Uchiha and led the establishment of Konoha, the achievements were limited to that.
Even an S-Rank rating already surprised Takumi enough.
He thought it would be A.
The entire simulation process could be said: success due to pyromania, failure due to pyromania.
Early on, because of the Pyromaniac talent, it was smooth sailing.
But honestly, too smooth, without any setbacks.
As for failure due to pyromania,
it was because you became too strong in the end.
Too strong for anyone to get close.
So an S-rank rating was acceptable.
[Ding! Based on your simulation rating reaching S.]
[You may choose 2 rewards from the following:]
[1. Flame Constitution (Can be activated or deactivated at will. When active, body surface temperature can reach 6000 degrees Celsius. Power of released Fire Release greatly enhanced.)]
[2. All Fire Release Ninjutsu learned in that lifetime.]
[3. Lifetime accumulated Chakra Reserves.]
'Can activate and deactivate?'
Takumi was pleasantly surprised.
In that case, why hesitate!
First one must be chosen!
As for the second and third, Takumi didn't hesitate much, choosing the second.
Flame Constitution enhances Fire Release.
Coincidentally, he knows few Fire Release Ninjutsu, so choosing the second fits perfectly.
And the assassins from the Land of Snow use Ice Release, right?
Isn't Fire Release perfectly countered their Ninjutsu?
That's called attribute suppression.
"Takumi, what's wrong?"
Beside him, a surprised voice came.
Turning, it was Naruto, looking at him puzzled.
Takumi immediately composed his expression, calmly saying, "You're seeing things."
But the next second, Takumi was dumbfounded. "Naruto!? Why are you here!?"
