The little Takumi's training was always accompanied by a body covered with wounds.
Compared to the previous Genjutsu Training, dodging training was even more cruel.
After resisting Genjutsu Training, nothing happened, and there was no pain.
But during dodging training, a single mistake meant injury.
It was manageable before, as the wounds could be controlled.
But now, facing the many high-power traps in the Trap Tower,
Even with Sandaime Raikage watching over him, the little Takumi was still seriously injured.
[Seriously injured, you couldn't train continuously.]
[When unable to enter the Trap Tower, you would train in Taijutsu and Lightning Release.]
[When the injuries didn't affect movement, you would challenge the Trap Tower again.]
[After getting injured, train Taijutsu and Lightning Release.]
[Repeating this cycle, you finally completely conquered the Trap Tower on your eighth birthday.]
[Sandaime Raikage, along with numerous Kumogakure's higher-ups, were extremely shocked.]
[Because when they designed this Trap Tower initially, they had installed every attack mode they could think of from the entire Shinobi World.]
[Everyone unanimously believed you absolutely could not break through this kind of training.]
[But you did it.]
[And it only took one year!]
[Upon successfully reaching the bottom, Sandaime Raikage also gave you your eighth birthday gift.]
["Go to the battlefield. Go display your talent." Sandaime Raikage said to you.]
[Thus, you set foot on the battlefield.]
Takumi took a deep breath.
Although he knew that during the Second and Third Great Shinobi Wars, it was common for young Genin to serve as cannon fodder, he didn't expect the little Takumi, as Sandaime Raikage's son, to also be sent out at only eight years old.
'Damn, aren't you afraid your son will die?'
'Truly, a father's love is as deep as a mountain!'
Takumi couldn't help but complain.
[You formed a team with your two brothers.]
[To let you adapt to the battlefield, A and Killer B specifically left one Chunin for you to deal with.]
[They took care of the remaining Shinobi and watched over you from the shadows.]
["Don't hold it against me." The opponent, seeing you were just a child, seemed somewhat reluctant, and said this.]
[But he charged without the slightest hesitation, the kunai in his hand aimed straight at your pupil.]
[You gently sidestepped, dodging his attack.]
[With a light jump, you dodged his kick.]
[Reaching out, you spread your fingers, pressed on the opponent's head, and pushed back, once again dodging his horizontal kunai slash.]
[Your dodging was like an art.]
[Always using just the slightest movement to dodge the opponent's attacks.]
[Yet you used it to lure the opponent, making them think they were just a little bit away from hitting you.]
[After half an hour, the enemy Chunin collapsed, exhausted, having not touched a single hair on your head from start to finish.]
"This is truly 'after bitterness comes sweetness'!"
Seeing this point, Takumi couldn't help but sigh with emotion.
It was so hard!
The image of being covered in wounds during training injuries, and now, finally stepping onto the battlefield, using an almost god-like movement, elegant dodging actions...
His heart was filled with satisfaction and being moved.
["Your fighting style is really awkward," A couldn't help but say.]
["But this is also your characteristic. The hard work of training with you these years has been worth it," Killer B said.]
["That's right, maintain your characteristic. You will be our Kumogakure's undefeatable Shinobi," A also nodded.]
[Once again receiving recognition from your two older brothers, your heart swelled with immense pride and spirit.]
[In the second battle, A and Killer B had already confirmed your dodging ability.]
[This time, they specifically left three enemies for you.]
[The three had cooperated for a long time and immediately charged forward, executing exquisite coordination.]
[One person entangled you to restrict your movement space, another applied pressure from the flank, and the last one threw shuriken from a distance to block your dodging paths.]
[The attacks from the three came at you like a net from all directions.]
[But facing such an offensive, you still dodged with ease.]
[You closed in closely into the first person's embrace, following the momentum and dodging the flank enemy's attack and also the shuriken thrown from afar.]
[Then you lifted your calf, quite unfortunately hitting the first person's lower body. As he couldn't help but bend over, you jumped away from the flank.]
[The first person suddenly bending over caused him to accidentally bump into his companion attacking from the flank. The two collided and fell to the ground in a wretched state.]
[The third person, seeing this, feared you would press the advantage and immediately threw shuriken to force you back.]
[But you just lightly tapped your toes, hands behind your back, turned slightly and dodged the shuriken attack, yet you stood in place without moving an inch.]
[Throughout the entire process, your hands remained behind your back, unused, fully displaying your graceful and elegant bearing.]
"Elegant! Simply elegant!"
Takumi watched extremely excitedly.
Watching the little Takumi's graceful bearing, he seemed to see the grandmaster with ethereal movement from martial arts novels!
[The three were utterly perplexed by your god-level dodging skills. How could someone not even use their hands, only dodge, and dodge everything?]
[But they didn't think it was an ability, just thought you were lucky.]
[Immediately after, the three continued their exquisite coordination, but it was still effortlessly resolved by you.]
[And each time you had the opportunity to strike and finish them, you never made a move, as if just toying with them.]
["What are you doing, you brat?!" The opponent couldn't help but shout… they were already exhausted.]
["He's draining our stamina!" Someone realized your intention, but it was already too late.]
[They had already consumed too much stamina and could no longer escape your grasp.]
'So cool!'
'Really so cool!'
Watching the entire process of how the little Takumi toyed with those three Shinobi with exquisite coordination, Takumi couldn't help but show a smile.
'Not making a single move the whole time, just using graceful movements to dodge skills.'
'Is this dodging?'
'No, this is toying!'
