[Chapter Size: 2400 Words.]

Third Person POV

Konoha, Year 35.

...

...

Before the day ended in Konoha, Minato firmly carried the scrolls of Rank C jutsus in his arms and headed to his training field, arriving at the location without interruptions. He quickly opened the scrolls with the three elemental jutsus he received: one for each of the wind, fire, and lightning elements.

Scroll 1 - Wind Jutsu - "Fūton: Reppūken" (Wind Blade): This jutsu creates a sharp blade of air that can be launched towards a target. Luffy focused on memorizing the necessary hand seals: Tiger, Ox, Rabbit, and Bird.

Scroll 2 - Fire Jutsu - "Katon: Hōsenka no Jutsu" (Phoenix Flower Technique): This jutsu allows the user to create multiple small fireballs, shooting them towards the opponent. Minato looked at the hand seals - Snake, Tiger, Monkey, Boar, Horse, and Tiger.

Scroll 3 - Lightning Jutsu - "Raiton: Jibashi" (Electric Strike): This jutsu is used to generate an electrical discharge that can be directed to a specific target or area at a short distance. Minato learned the hand seals - Tiger, Rabbit, and Ox.

Minato looked at the three jutsus excitedly, but before he could start practicing, even as a child, he knew he needed to perform nature transformation, especially with the wind jutsus, which were the hardest to learn.

Minato quickly read each nature transformation in each of the elements in the introduction of the scrolls and created 90 clones to train all of them quickly, 30 for each clone.

It took 2 hours of training to become good enough to execute a Rank C jutsu in one of them, Minato was exhausted, but he succeeded with the fire element.

Determined and focused, he picked up the fire scroll, which was the element he found easiest to perform nature transformation, to try executing his first jutsus.

Excited by the initial success, Minato proceeded to the fire jutsu, "Katon: Hōsenka no Jutsu" (Phoenix Flower Technique).

Katon: Hōsenka no Jutsu - Executing the hand seals Snake, Tiger, Monkey, Boar, Horse, and Tiger, he began to practice. At first, the fireballs were small and uncontrolled. However, with practice and concentration on the flow of his chakra, Minato quickly improved. His fireballs became larger, more numerous, and precise, forming an impressive pyrotechnic spectacle.

Minato's training showed that he had a natural talent for nature jutsus, which also surprised him with the ease with which he learned the jutsu at first. It was already night while Naruto tried not to burn his mouth with each jutsu launched, illuminating his training area.

"I think that's good enough, I should head back," Minato murmured. He was exhausted, his chakra pool was at its limit after he made multiple clones, still using the remainder to make at least 30 attempts at the Rank C jutsu.

Minato returned to the center of Konoha while reflecting on his newly developed abilities in elemental jutsus. He couldn't help but feel surprised and, in a way, impressed with his own talent in this area.

'It's incredible how quickly I get the hang of these jutsus,' he thought, feeling a mix of pride and amazement.

'It seems I have a natural affinity with elements, perhaps even more than with other aspects of ninjutsu.'

After Minato returned to the orphanage and explained his situation to Madame Gorete, he went to rest and woke up for another day just sending clones to school. Over the following weeks, Minato dedicated himself intensely to the training of his new elemental jutsus. While most of the children in the class were focusing on nature transformation, Minato, with a combination of natural talent and a potion of hard work plus clones, advanced in mastering his techniques with impressive speed.

Every day in the training field was an opportunity for Minato to perfect his skills. He started with the "Katon: Hōsenka no Jutsu". Minato approached it with dedication and enthusiasm. He trained daily, honing his ability to create multiple fireballs, each hitting its target with remarkable precision and even learning to hide thrown weapons like kunais and shurikens within the flames.

Next, Minato focused on "Fūton: Reppūshō", a wind jutsu that allowed him to create gusts of air capable of destabilizing his opponents. With fluid and precise movements, he learned to control the intensity and direction of the wind, adapting the jutsu for various situations. Despite the wind element being the most difficult to train, it was the second jutsu that Minato mastered.

Finally, Minato turned his attention to "Raiton: Jibashi", a complex ability that allowed for generating electrical discharges. This technique was particularly challenging, requiring a delicate balance between power and control. However, for Minato, each challenge was an opportunity for growth. He worked tirelessly, adjusting his chakra flow to achieve the desired level of electrical intensity.

By the end of these weeks, Minato had not only mastered these three jutsus and refined them as he wanted, but he also began experimenting with combinations and variations, seeking ways to integrate them more effectively in combat. His peers and teachers were once again impressed with his progress in a new area, many acknowledging that the young shinobi was becoming an unreachable talent in elemental jutsus.

It was in this context of continuous progress and determination that Minato found himself in a training duel with Tsuna today. As the sun painted Konoha's blue sky, on the training field, Minato and Tsuna were engaged in an intense training duel. Tsuna, known for her prowess with water and earth jutsus, was preparing to defend against an imminent attack from Minato.

Minato, focused and with a determined look, quickly began forming the hand seals for the "Katon: Hōsenka no Jutsu", a technique that allowed launching multiple fireballs in rapid succession. He knew Tsuna was a skilled opponent and that he would need precision and speed to overcome her.

"Katon: Hōsenka no Jutsu!" exclaimed Minato, launching a series of small but intense fireballs towards Tsuna.

Tsuna, anticipating Minato's move, was already prepared with her counterattack. She quickly formed the hand seals for her water jutsu, aiming to create a defensive barrier that could absorb and extinguish the fire attack.

"Suiton: Mizu no Tate!" Tsuna shouted, and a wall of water emerged in front of her, intercepting Minato's flames. The fireballs hit the water wall, creating clouds of steam as they were extinguished by the opposing element's force.

Minato watched, impressed with Tsuna's effective defense. He knew that this exchange of jutsus was excellent practice for both, helping them to hone their skills and reflexes.

"Good defense," Minato commented, as he prepared for his next move. "But it's not over yet!"

"Raiton: Jibashi!" Minato formed the hand seals and an electrical charge shot out from him directly into the water. Tsuna, seeing this, widened her eyes and before she

could jump away from the water barrier, Minato's electric currents reached her jutsu. Conducted by the water, the electric sparks hit Tsuna.

However, Tsuna's body turned into smoke and a log appeared in her place, with the 9-year-old girl now on the other side of the training field.

"I had time to activate that jutsu..." Tsuna sighed.

Minato looked at Tsuna and initiated the attack with a sequence of kunais. He threw the weapons with precision, but Tsuna, equally agile, easily dodged, using the substitution jutsu again to appear behind Minato.

Minato felt the change in the air and quickly created a shadow clone to distract Tsuna, while he positioned himself for a counter-attack. Tsuna, realizing the trick, launched "Doton: Doroku Gaeshi" this time, creating an earth wall that absorbed the impact of another subsequent "Katon: Hōsenka no Jutsu" from Minato.

The fight continued at a frenetic pace. Minato, using his agility and techniques he had been training with Duy, launched 12 clones at Tsuna, who responded in kind. The clones began to fight each other, but despite Minato always being superior thanks to his observation haki, the clones didn't have this, leading to a draw with all clones dissolving equally. Minato had trained a lot with Duy and with his special body, he had an advantage, but fighting against a Senju who used the same taijutsu as the first Hokage was difficult for him to win without his original body's advantage.

Seeing that the fight was without a winner, at a critical moment, Minato launched a "Fūton: Reppūshō", a powerful gust of wind, trying to unbalance Tsuna. However, Tsuna, with a quick movement, used "Suiton: Teppōdama", firing water spheres that collided with the wind attack, creating a dispersed mist that temporarily obscured vision.

Taking advantage of the confusion, Minato attempted a surprise attack, emerging from the mist with a series of shurikens. Tsuna, however, was prepared and evaded the attack with a series of acrobatic evasive movements.

Minato threw a special Kunai, Tsuna was going to defend, but saw what kind of Kunais it was and quickly made a set of seals. "Doton: Dangan no Jutsu" She opened her hand and a stone emerged from her palm against the kunai, as soon as they collided with each other, an explosion was created in the middle of the battlefield.

*BOOOOOMMM!*

"Damn it, Minato, you managed to make the exploding tag?!" Tsuna exclaimed a bit surprised, exploding tags were quite expensive especially in a period of the beginning of war, she knew Minato wouldn't throw one in this fight by chance, he must have created it for this.

"You liked it? That was one of my first successes!" Minato laughed.

"Congratulations..." She admitted without leaving her fighting stance, Minato looked at her and made 20 more shadow clones and Tsuna responded with the same amount, both ran with their clones for a final clash.

The fight continued with taijutsu, despite Tsuna having her inheritance, it was not enough to finish Minato and his mastery of haki, making him finally win the fight.

"I guess you won..." She fell exhausted.

"It was a great fight, are you okay?" Minato asked, breathing a bit tired while looking at the girl with some concern.

"Hey, what do you think you are doing, my mother told me that I should punch boys who look too much at my body!" Tsuna growled and Minato raised his hands.

"It's not my intention, I just wanted to see if you were injured." Minato scratched his head with that.

"It's okay... I guess..." She said with a red face.

Tsuna got up a bit, they didn't have class today, Kushina was doing something with Mito, so Tsuna took advantage of this day to stay with Minato with some training.

"Minato," Tsuna resumed speaking and Minato looked at her again, her tone still a bit accelerated by the recent activity, "My great-grandmother mentioned that she would like to see you again. She has only heard of you through me and Kush

ina. How about coming to dinner at the Senju house tonight?"

Minato, still recovering and wiping the sweat from his forehead, looked at Tsuna with a mix of surprise. "Really? It would be an honor. I would be happy to accept the invitation."

Tsuna nodded with a smile, clearly pleased with Minato's response. "Great! You still know where my house is, right? Then arrive around 8 PM."

"Okay..." He confirmed calmly.

Tsuna left after she and Minato exchanged a few more words, mainly discussing their viewpoints on the fight to help each other. When evening arrived, dinner at the Senju house was a warm and welcoming experience as always for Minato. Tsunade and Dan were not present, as they were on the war front, so the table was filled by Nawaki, Tsuna, Kushina, and the cheerful Mito.

Despite Nawaki's teasing of Minato with Tsuna and even Kushina, causing the latter to punch him angrily, Minato took advantage of the evening to exchange some fuinjutsu tips with Mito. Minato was just a few details away from mastering the explosive seal and even though Kushina was talented, Mito's teachings were unquestionable in this area.

At the end of the dinner, Minato felt grateful for the opportunity and for the hospitality of the Senju and Mito Uzumaki. He left with a sense of having gained more knowledge and it was always good to spend time with his friends and people he hadn't seen in a long time.

As the months progressed, the class at the Konoha academy was absorbed in learning new jutsus, while Minato devoted his time to focusing on the development of his fruit. They were approaching the end of the academic year, and everyone's progress was notable, with most children excelling. Minato, in particular, demonstrated exceptional ability, having mastered the taught jutsus with ease that surprised his classmates and teachers.

During this time, Minato dedicated a significant portion of his time to physical training with Might Duy. Focused on enhancing his strength, speed, and endurance, over the months, Minato showed impressive physical development, reaching a level of preparation that rivaled many jonins, despite his young age.

Duy, in turn, was constantly amazed by Minato's physical growth. Initially, Duy saw Minato as a promising young student, but as the training progressed, he began to realize that Minato was a rare talent with some kind of special body, even without using chakra he was already so powerful. Minato's ability to absorb and apply the training exceeded all expectations, even making an experienced warrior like Duy feel dazed, but always shouting with joy in the end with Minato's power of youth.

Minato was not ashamed to train with Duy despite everyone speaking poorly of him. He sometimes participated in training around the village on days when there were no classes. This progress of Minato was so notable that it began to attract the attention of other shinobis in the village who remained in the village. They observed, intrigued, this young boy who, even before turning ten years old, exhibited a physical and technical preparation that promised a bright future as a ninja.
