Talent

Alright, before performing any mission, Lord Hokage asked me to train you guys a little bit before" in training ground number three, Asahi, Fugaku, and Hoshi were listening to Nōka.

"First you Hoshi-kun, you specialize in the gentle fist right?".

"Yes Nōka-sensei, I have received from taijutsu training in the clan."

"Hmm, it will be a little difficult to teach you Hoshi-kun, but I'll come up with something, next is you Fugaku-kun."

"I have received training in taijutsu, shurikenjutsu and fire element release Nōka-sensei."

"That will be easier, I already have an idea for you Fugaku-kun, and now you Asahi-kun."

Asahi was a bit embarrassed at this point "well... I've only received training from Nōka-sensei Academy."

"A blank sheet huh, do you know what your elemental affinity is?" Asahi shook his head, although he was once tempted to buy a chakra test sheet, it was very expensive.

"I figured, have this, try to transfer your chakra to this paper" Taking out a small sheet of paper Nōka handed it to Asahi.

Taking the sheet in his hand, Asahi transferred some chakra, under everyone's gaze, the small sheet first soaked, then crumpled, and in the end split in two.

At that moment everyone's eyes were wide open, "three... three chakra affinities" said Hoshi.

Taking out another piece of paper, Nōka handed it to Asahi "can you try again Asahi-kun?".

Taking the paper, he infused it with chakra again, and the same pattern repeated itself, first it got wet, then crumpled and finally split in two.

Asahi was incredulous, first the regeneration ability, and now he had three innate affinities 'didn't the reincarnation gods forget about me?'

"Indeed it's three innate affinities, the greatest is water, followed by lightning, and lastly wind" said Nōka, even he, such a powerful ninja, when he tested his affinities he only had two.

Fugaku was also surprised, staring at Asahi he thought 'another genius of the caliber of the Hokage's disciples?'

"Asahi-kun knowing your affinities, we know which way to develop your strengths." Nōka was annoyed with Sarutobi for always bragging about his disciples, seeing the three of them in front of him, he thought maybe soon he could flaunt his equipment with his old friend.

"Alright, before anything else, first things first is the base, we'll start with your chakra control" explaining to them the exercise of climbing the tree, and how to send chakra to their feet, he stepped back and let the young men train.

Asahi remembered the training of sticking the leaf to his body, and had been doing it since he could feel his chakra, so he believed his control would not be bad, but he soon realized the difficulty of climbing the tree.

Watching the youngsters climb higher and higher, Nōka decided to feel his chakra reserves, after all he was also a sensor type ninja.

They all had fairly high reserves for their age, but the one that surprised him the most was Asahi, his chakra reserves were substantially higher than the other two, the one following him was Fugaku and lastly Hoshi.

By the end of the day, they could almost climb the tree, which showed how talented they were. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ A week later, the three of them were standing on a small lake created by Nōka.

"That's enough, to improve further, to the level of doing it unconsciously, they will have to practice in a real body of water."

Jumping out of the lake, the three stood in front of Nōka. "I am very satisfied with your progress, we have another week to train, after that we will officially start doing missions, now I have prepared a training for each of you" with a cloud of smoke two shadow clones appeared, one ñara Fugaku and one for Hoshi, following their respective shadow clone, both disappeared.

The real Nōka remained "Asahi-kun during this week I will teach you three jutsu, and it will be up to you if you can learn them, the first one is the jutsu I used on the day of the test Water Style: Water Wall, it is a rank C jutsu, a lower version of a rank B jutsu, it is pretty decent defensive jutsu."

After teaching him the necessary seals to for the jutsu, showing it once more and explaining a few things, he disappeared leaving these words "the next jutsu I will teach you after you master this one."

Left alone, Asahi started practicing immediately, no kidding, he has been waiting for this day for two years.

The first time he tried nothing happened, without losing his cool he kept trying, soon a thin wall of water formed in front of him, after remembering the feeling, he continued.

Nōka who had gone to supervise, Fugaku and Hoshi's training, came back and found Asahi sitting "hey what are you doing sitting! Have you given up already?"

Asahi stood up and performed several hand seals "Water Style: Water Wall" from Asahi's feet a wall of water identical to Nōka's stood up.

Seeing that Nōka who was prepared to scold him fell down.

"You are a monster, who is your father Tobirama-sama?"

Ignoring what he said, Asahi asked "Nōka-sensei, what the is another jutsu you are going to teach me?"

Hearing that, Nōka's mouth twisted, but in the end he sighed 'I thought my words pushed him to master the jutsu faster, but this is too much'.

"The next jutsu, it's also C rank, only it's lightning element, Lightning Style: Electric Fang."

After a demonstration and explaining the concepts of the jutsu he let him practice, only this time he stayed to observe.

The jutsu was quite simple, it consisted of sending multiple lightning bolts from more hands everywhere, and electrocute the enemy, the problem is that if you are not careful you can hurt a partner.

The practice of this jutsu, was not as smooth as the previous one, however by the end of the day, he had mastered it to some extent.

At this moment Asahi, Fugaku and Hoshi could be seen lying on the ground. "You all made great progress today, you know tomorrow at the same time as usual."

Recovering a bit, they all went home.

Being in the privacy of his home, Asahi began to think, his progress today had gone beyond his expectations, he knew it wasn't normal to master ninjutsu like that, only geniuses like Itachi, who mastered the fireball jutsu in a few tries can do it.

'Well, anyway that's not bad for me, the faster I get stronger the safer I'll be in the war.'
