By the time Seimei entered the kitchen, the dining table was already brimming with different dishes.
The Senju household members were also sitting at the table and chatting away happily while waiting for everyone to gather.
He could see Hashirama, the legendary God of Shinobi, talking happily with his brother.
He could see Uzumaki Mito preparing dishes along with her daughter-in-law who will become the mother of Senju Tsunade.
And then he shifted his gaze toward Tobirama, his foster father, who was listening to the chatter of his elder brother with a signature ever-serious expression.
Everything felt surreal to him.
He never thought he would transmigrate to this world.
Is this world dangerous?
Yes.
But this world also gave him a loving family—The Senju Household.
As he stepped closer, Hashirama looked at him with a warm smile.
"Good morning, Seimei."
"Good morning, Uncle. Good morning, everyone."
Seimei greeted all of them and sat on the table.
After that, everyone wasted no time and quickly finished their breakfast.
"By the way, Seimei. Are you planning to join the Ninja Academy next year?", Uzumaki Mito asked.
But before Seimei could reply, Senju Tobirama chimed in.
"Yes. He will join. We are creating the Ninja Academy so every capable child, both from civilian families and Shinobi clans, can become a capable Shinobi in a systematic manner."
"It will also allow children from different clans and civilian backgrounds to become friends, making it easier for the next generation Shinobi to trust each other."
"They will not grow up as clan Shinobi but as Shinobi of Konoha."
"And as a founding clan, we must lead them by example."
"So, every Senju child of the right age, including Seimei, must enroll in the academy."
Seimei smiled wryly and said, "That's what father said."
"So, I will join the academy next year."
Suddenly Hashirama interrupted, "By the way, Tobirama. When are you taking charge as the Hokage?"
Tobirama's face suddenly darkened.
"Why big brother? Are you planning to dump all the duties on me and go wander off to casinos?"
Hashirama coughed and said with a serious expression, "What are you talking about? I'm clearly passing the embers to the next generation."
"But I'm just one year younger than you, big brother. We are literally the same generation."
"No, no, no. You don't understand. You are already handling most of the paperwork in the Hokage office. Just take the title already."
"And whose fault is that? If you did your job properly, would I have to deal with all this stuff?"
"You know I'm sick, right?"
"Ugh"
'This guy is goofing around every day even though he's Hokage.'
'You can easily manage the office.'
'You're clearly skipping work.'
'Do you know how many hours I have wasted managing paperwork?'
'I couldn't even finish my Ninjutsu research.'
'And you sealed most of my Ninjutsu in the Scroll of Seals and declared them forbidden.'
'Do you even understand my torment?'
Tobirama's forehead was full of black lines and he glared at Hashirama.
Meanwhile, Hashirama watched his brother's face darken more and more with every passing second.
He looked around to shift the conversion but…
Caw~ Caw~
The dining room was utterly empty.
At some point, everyone slipped out of the room, and he was now alone in it with Tobirama, who was about to explode.
Suddenly, he felt chakra boiling beside him. He shifted his gaze to Tobirama again, and his back was instantly drenched in cold sweat.
"Uh-oh"
BOOOM!!
"My brother, listen to my explanation first."
"F*ck You!"
For the next few minutes, a loud crashing noise and the sound of a pig being slaughtered could be heard from the room.
-----------------
Seimei was already standing in one of the Senju Ninjutsu training when he heard loud sounds.
"Fortunately, I bolted out of there quickly."
He then wiped out the non-existent sweat from his forehead and focused on his next Ninjutsu practice.
He opened his system panel and checked the latest B-rank Fire Release jutsu, which he just started practicing yesterday.
[Fire Release: Majestic Destroyer Flame Lv.0 (88/100)]
He didn't have much time yesterday so he could only try this legendary Fire Style Ninjutsu four times before stopping.
Anyone who watched Naruto knows very well how devastating this Jutsu can be when you become highly proficient in it.
Just remembering how Uchiha Madara used this single Jutsu to create a tsunami of flames during the 4th Great Shinobi War sent shivers down his spine.
So, he decided to level up this Jutsu to the Max level.
Anyway, this Ninjutsu is just a single attempt away from reaching basic proficiency.
"Alright. Let's do this."
Seimei turned toward the lake, and quickly made the required hand seals, molded his chakra, and then released a jet of flame.
Fire Release: Majestic Destroyer Flame
The jet of flame then quickly spread in a fan-shaped form and reached up to an 8-meter distance over the lake.
The sound of sizzling flame and boiling water could be heard from the distance. The flames lasted for about 5 seconds before finally dying down.
"Hooooo~"
Seimei released hot air from his mouth and then looked at his "Skills" section.
[Fire Release: Majestic Destroyer Flame Lv.1 (5 /200)]
This Ninjutsu finally reached basic proficiency. Now, he could use this Jutsu anytime without failing. However, grinding proficiency will take time.
After all, a single attempt needed at least 400 units of chakra. And this was after calculating the 20.7% chakra cost reduction thanks to his Lv.5 chakra control.
Otherwise, attempting this Ninjutsu would have taken at least 500 units of chakra.
But that wasn't anything surprising.
According to his understanding, most B-rank Ninjutsu needed at least 300 units of chakra to perform well.
To him, who has nearly 20,000 units of chakra at the age of 6, it might not seem that costly.
But for most Shinobi without any special bloodline or Kekkei Genkai, whose chakra capacity didn't exceed 5,000 units, this was a huge number.
They simply couldn't spam B-rank Ninjutsu as they pleased.
Otherwise, they would run out of chakra within minutes and would be slaughtered by their enemies like a fish on a chopping board.
"I have finally reached basic proficiency in this legendary technique."
"But this is nowhere close to Madara's Majestic Destroyer Flame."
"If I'm not wrong, to reach his level, I need to grind this Jutsu at least to Lv.7 and pour at least 2,000 units of chakra."
"Oh. I almost forgot. Tomorrow is the joint training day of the Senju kids."
"It's ridiculous to compete with a bunch of children who won't even pose a challenge"
"Can I skip that?"
At this moment, his father's darkening face appeared in his mind.
"Hmm~! Probably not."
"And this Senju can is different from the Senju clan of the original Naruto Manga. It should have a lot of genius with powerful bloodline limits."
"Well, I will think about that tomorrow."
"It's time to grind."
With that, he went back to practicing his Fire Release techniques again.
