Combustion Release

Wildfire Release is a unique ability possessed by a select few members of the original Akuma clan. Although it was believed that this ancient Kekkei Genkai died out with the Akuma clan, history books speak of several fierce warriors who possessed this ability, one of which died while fighting alongside Hashima Senju. The technique was thought to be extinct, but very few knew of the young boy who possessed ability, residing in the Hidden Leaf Village, Heiden Akuma.

Wildfire Release was simple, but devastating. By condensing their Fire Release chakra with the Tastugan actived, Wildfire users could create powerful Green flames, capable of incinerating enemies in an instant. What made Wildfire even more dangerous was its versatility. Almost any Fire Release technique could be converted into a Wildfire Release technique by simply adding the necessary hand seal (a modified Torā seal) and taking a few extra moments to compress their chakra. There are several techniques unique to Wildfire Release, but all posed great risk to the user. Stories exist of Wildfire  users being burned to death by their own techniques.

Many believe Wildfire Release to be the most powerful variant of Fire Release, until Amaterasu became more known. Amaterasu is superior to Wildfire Release in that it is harder to avoid and the flames burn even hotter. Wildfire Release's advantage over Amaterasu would be the fact that Wildfire Release can be used in gradual amounts without any serious negative effects inflicted upon the user. Many infer that Wildfire Release became the inspiration for Scorch Release many decades after the conception of the ability. The primary difference between the two is that Wildfire is simply an extremely advanced Fire Release with bloodline limitations while Scorch Release is simply a combination of Wind and Fire Release.
