Kapitel 258: Chapter 258: Sage Mode
"What... is this?!"
As they looked at Jiraiya, whose image and aura had drastically changed before them, all the Ninja of Konoha widened their eyes.
Different from ordinary Chakra, the Jiraiya who had activated Sage Mode at this moment seemed to have completely merged with the surrounding nature, surpassing the strength of ordinary Kage Ninja and entering a realm that was mystical and profound.
"So, this is..."
"The legendary Sage Mode, isn't it..."
Feeling a powerful aura that they had never experienced before, Yu, who had originally worn a calm expression, finally grew solemn as he watched Jiraiya gradually approaching him.
Through the Sensory of Observation Haki, Yu could clearly sense that the Chakra emanating from Jiraiya surpassed the category of ordinary Kage, directly entering the realm of Super Kage, and the Chakra on his body was very special, vastly different from the Chakra refined from spiritual and physical energy like that of ordinary Ninja.
"Little Jiraiya, long time no see."
"Encountering another troublesome enemy this time, you've actually summoned the two of us."
Amidst the astonishment of everyone present, they only saw a male toad perched on Jiraiya's right shoulder, speaking human language. Its green skin, white beard, and eyebrows indicated its very old age.
"Yes, Sage Fukasaku... a very troublesome fellow."
After activating the Sage Mode of Mount Myoboku, Jiraiya exhibited clear toad-like characteristics, emanating a terrifying aura as his eyes locked onto Yu before him. "He's the old man's new disciple, my little junior, hence I need to ask you two to help me in battle."
"Is that him... It's hard to imagine such a small brat could force Little Jiraiya to resort to Sage Mode."
Hearing Jiraiya's words, another female toad perched on his left shoulder gazed at Yu. "But, husband, I can sense an unusually vast Chakra and a sinister aura emanating from this little brat. Let's lend a hand to Little Jiraiya together!"
Sage Art: Wind Release Dust Cloud!!
As the words fell, the female toad perched on Jiraiya's left shoulder unexpectedly unleashed the legendary Sage Art in an instant. Suddenly, the entire ground before everyone was filled with flying debris and stones, as a powerful sandstorm directly covered and obscured Yu's line of sight, providing Jiraiya with an opportunity to attack.
So fast...
This is the toad Sage Art of Mount Myoboku...
Although Yu's Observation Haki possessed the ability to sense and see glimpses of the future, witnessing the swift and fierce Sage Art from the female toad on Jiraiya's left shoulder still couldn't help but astonish him.
Fukasaku and Shima, both Elder-level toad Sages of Mount Myoboku. They could coordinate to use extremely powerful Sage Arts. With ages exceeding eight hundred years, they usually didn't participate in battles much due to restrictions on Summoning Jutsu. However, once they joined the battle, they would display various formidable Sage Arts, showcasing their immense strength.
Swish!!
Just as Yu narrowly avoided the Sage Art sandstorm launched by Fukasaku, he suddenly felt a towering figure swaying before him. He saw Jiraiya instantly appearing in front of him, with a giant red wooden clog infinitely magnified before his eyes!
Bang!!
A dull collision sound rang out as the lightning-fast Yu directly blocked the sudden kick from Jiraiya. The strength of his entire body, enhanced by second-stage Armament Haki, surprisingly matched that of Jiraiya who had activated Sage Mode.
"His strength and speed have increased several times over..."
"So, this is the power of Sage Mode..."
Unexpectedly, Jiraiya, who had just been easily overwhelmed in close Taijutsu combat, saw his speed and strength skyrocket after activating Sage Mode. A hint of unusual light flashed in Yu's slightly widened eyes.
As a power up specifically designed for the protagonist, Sage Mode undoubtedly wielded tremendous power and influence. Under Sage Mode, all aspects of the body's abilities were enhanced tenfold or even several tens of times. Jutsu became significantly more powerful, and the body became activated, reducing the sensation of pain when injured and enhancing recovery.
Additionally, Sage Mode bestowed powerful Sensory abilities and the capability for wide-range attacks. Its unique Taijutsu attacks could fully utilize the natural energy around, making it a part of oneself, thus forming 'invisible' attacks.
Normal Chakra is a mixture of the physical energy and spiritual energy, while Sage Art Chakra is a blend of physical and spiritual energies, further mixed with natural energy. Its power is several times or even tens of times greater than regular Chakra.
Moreover, Sage Mode has a distinctive feature: while using regular Chakra, one becomes increasingly fatigued, but when using Sage Art Chakra, one becomes more energized. It's practically cheating.
The protagonist Naruto, relying on the temporary and incomplete Sage Mode, instantly boosted his strength from being a nobody to being able to contend with Six Paths Pain. This demonstrates just how absurd the augmentation of Sage Mode can be.
Ninjutsu, Taijutsu, Genjutsu, Sensory abilities, Chakra quantity, resistance to attacks, recovery capabilities—every attribute is enhanced in every aspect. Additionally, there are extra special abilities attached. It's simply the best all-around power up, unmatched by any other.
Mount Myoboku, Ryuchi Cave, Shikkotsu Forest...
It seems necessary to find these three places to learn Sage Mode.
Feeling the doubled battle strength emanating from Jiraiya, Yu silently resolved that after concluding this incident, he must find the legendary Three Great Holy Lands to refine the most powerful Sage Modes.
Sage Art: Hair Needle Senbon!!
While Yu blocked the kick aimed at him, he witnessed Jiraiya's long white hair suddenly swell up.
Utilizing Sage Art Chakra to harden his hair into needles, Jiraiya swiftly threw them at high speed, like a storm, delivering a potentially fatal blow to Yu. This was the fastest and most wide-ranging attack among all of Jiraiya's Sage Arts.
Storm Release:Chidori Senbon!!
Facing Jiraiya's erupting hair Senbon using Sage Art Chakra, Yu showed no weakness. Countless dazzling lights poured out of the air like a meteor shower, it was his Storm Release ChidoriSenbon unleashed using the Kekkei Genkai Storm Release.
"Is this... Storm Release?!"
Seeing his Sage Art Chakra-powered attack blocked by Yu's Storm Release, and observing the countless Senbon colliding and clashing in the air like a fierce storm, causing the surrounding ground to become riddled with holes in an instant, Jiraiya couldn't help but narrow his eyes.
"Speaking of which... I heard that this Ninjutsu was developed by you..."
As they spoke, Yu and Jiraiya had already clashed countless times. In the blink of an eye, a tremendously radiant giant Rasengan was held in Jiraiya's hand. "Now, let me reintroduce you to its power!!"
"Sage Art: Ultra-Big Ball Rasengan!!"
This was a massive Rasengan formed by Jiraiya gathering a large amount of Sage Art Chakra, with both its size and power tens of times greater than a regular Rasengan.
As Yu lifted his head, he saw Jiraiya holding a radiant, oversized Sage Art Rasengan descending from the sky. The swirling Chakra emitted from it gently stung Yu's cheeks.
