After returning to Konoha, he sorted out the information of his journey to Mount Myoboku, Ryuchi Cave, and Shikkotsu Forest, and handed the information to Minato and Orochimaru.
When he went to the Hokage building to work, Minato handed him the information.
Orochimaru, on the other hand, handed it to him when he went to his lab to get it.
"I've finally completed the collection. That didn't even take a month's time." Nagasawa nodded in satisfaction.
Shikkotsu Forest's Sage Mode was already in his mind. If he purely wanted to learn Sage Mode, he could learn it at Shikkotsu Forest by using the natural energy from Slug Sage.
Unfortunately, his goal was relatively ambitious. The Sage Mode of the Three Sage Regions could not satisfy him.
Sage Mode of the Three Sage Regions represented the Three Great Sages there.
He had already completed two templates. He had attained Yoriichi Tsugikuni's talent and Whitebeard's power. Tobirama's template would be maxed out as well once he cleared the challenge mission.
He was no weaker than those Sages, so why not create a new one instead of learning their Sage Mode?
Moreover, none of those Sages was human. Nagasawa doubted that their Sage Mode was compatible with human in the first place.
Nagasawa then browsed through the information from Mount Myoboku.
The information from Mount Myoboku was well prepared. They did not immediately say the way to cultivate. Instead, they explained the principle of Sage Mode, as well as the composition of Senjutsu Chakra. The Sage Mode's ability was only mentioned in the several last pages.
As Nagasawa flipped through the pages, he compared it with Shikkotsu Forest's Sage Mode to find the difference between the two.
In principle, there was no general difference between the two. They both absorbed natural energy and then combined it with Senjutsu Chakra to pull off the Sage Mode.
Nagasawa quickly finished reading the information from Mount Myoboku and then skimmed through Ryuchi Cave's information.
He wanted to find the similarities and the differences between the Three Sage Regions' Sage Mode.
After reading, Nagasawa found that there was more differences from what he had imagined. The learning method of each Sage Region was actually quite different.
He was a little puzzled. Setting aside an unknown Sage Mode like Hashirama's, the differences between Ryuchi Cave and Mount Myoboku's Sage was not that big.
Both could enhance the user's Ninjutsu, Genjutsu, perception, and recovery rate. In short, it was an all-round boost.
If there was any difference, it was just the specialty.
Therefore, he believed that the Sage Mode from the three Sage Regions would not have that many differences.
What he didn't expect was that Sage Mode of the three great holy lands was a bit different.
For example, they had their own method to speed up the learning process. Mount Myoboku had toad oil, while Ryuchi Cave had White Snake Immortal injecting Senjutsu Chakra directly into one's body.
Those who couldn't control the toad oil properly would turn into a toad, while those who couldn't withstand the Senjutsu Chakra from White Snake Sage would turn into a snake.
It was worth mentioning that Ryuchi Cave wouldn't give you a choice at all. If you wanted to learn Sage Mode, White Snake Immortal would only inject Senjutsu Chakra into you instead of teaching you himself.
Perhaps it was because of the power that Nagasawa had displayed. The information from Ryuchi Cave had the same training process as Mount Myoboku. Otherwise, the information would have been nothing but the words "Let the White Snake Sage bite you!"
However, there was a consequence for doing so. The consequence was that Nagasawa would have to go to Ryuchi Cave for a snake barbecue.
It was impossible for Sage Mode to not have a training method. Otherwise, how did the White Snake Sage's Sage Mode come to be?
It was obvious that the White Snake Sage simply did not want to reveal his secret.
Nagasawa took out a piece of paper and wrote down the problem he was thinking of.
The first was to understand the difference between the Three Sage Regions' Sage Mode.
The second point was their characteristic?
The third point...
After writing down the problem he ought to solve, he let out a long sigh.
It was not easy to create a brand new Sage Mode.
Right now, his biggest problem was that he had no actual understanding of the three Sage Regions' Sage Mode. His only knowledge so far was just from the anime and the information from the paper.
Mount Myoboku was one thing, as he could learn it with Minato. However, he didn't know anyone who could use Ryuchi Cave and Shikkotsu Forest's Sage Mode.
Nagasawa thought for a moment, opened the system panel to check the amount of his points. He had already saved up 100,000 points.
Points were not only used to increase the Fusion Rate. It could instantly strengthen any ability, such as increasing Chakra, or increasing physical strength, and increasing the control of Chakra.
However, directly using points to strengthen himself was not as good as increasing Fusion Rate, and it cost less points.
However, he currently had no more templates that he could increase. Naturally, there was no need to consider the effectiveness here.
Nagasawa discovered that the Sage Mode from the three Sage Regions could be strengthened with points.
Such a thing never happened in the past. The system could not directly learn things that he had not seen before. If the three Sage Regions gave him a fake information, it would not be displayed either.
Nagasawa pointed to Shikkotsu Forest's Sage Mode.
If he really couldn't develop his own Sage Mode, he planned to learn Shikkotsu Forest's Sage Mode by himself. Then, he could have Orochimaru learn Ryuchi Cave's Sage Mode, and with Minato learning Mount Myoboku's Sage Mode, Konoha would become stronger.
On top of that, it would make his research to make his own Sage Mode easier.
However, when Nagasawa tapped the Sage Mode, instead of showing how much points it cost, another option popped out!
[Special skills detected! Choose the way to learn or strengthen. ]
[Stimulus Method: It costs less points and doesn't include natural energy control. ]
[Instant Method: It costs more points, but allows perfect control. ]
"Stimulus method..." Nagasawa touched his chin. But if he chose that, he couldn't completely master it. It just made him think that he learned it. In fact, there was no natural energy entering his body.
Nagasawa felt that he was a little silly.
If he learned different Sage Modes at once, there might be a conflict, but if he learned it this way, there should not be a conflict.
Because in essence, he did not learn it at all. Natural energy did not enter his body, nor did he combine it with Senjutsu Chakra. It was just a stimulus.
Nagasawa decided to give it a try first and directly spent 10,000 points into the stimulus method of Shikkotsu Forest Sage Mode.
If it was as he thought, learning Sage Mode would be much easier.
