I did... is there a problem with that? Given from where the legendary sannin are inspired, I am entitled to that opinion. We've seen Toad Magic [Sage Mode], Snake Magic ... given the Tales of Gallant Jiraiya, which one do you think it's missing? ;)

See that is the only grounds for these theories... Summons show no affiliation for sage mode. There has never been a single mention of it. What attributes would Tsunade and Hashirama gain from it that they don't already possess. An who is gonna gain this slug sage mode? Sakura?? As if she could get her mind off relationships long enough to be useful for a change??

What Sakura has to do with this, anyway? If you'd do some research before asking who came up with it, you'd see it has a ground to stand on.

I feel like if she had a slug sage mode, she would have entered the state in her fight against Madara.. because it's obvious she could have used the additional strength and speed... Not only that but she had many situations in which she was standing still , or talking , and could have started gathering natural energy..

not to mention the databook states slugs are supposed to be gentle creatures, I don't see why they'd need to have a sage mode

Slug sage mode is the most likely possibility. Its more likely than any other SM that he could have (other candidates include "wood" sage mode, and "monkey" sage mode) the other possibilities dont make any sense. We will see in the following chapters that i was right to come to this conclusion. Please refer to for the reasoning behind slug SM

As people have stated if tsunade had Slug SM she would have used it against madara..since everyone went all out and tsunade herself said that fight was a matter of life and death U_U

Tsunade doesnt need to have slug SM for hashi to have it

Jiraiya has toad SM, Minato/Kakashi dont

Your "reasons" for why, are the reasons I made this post. Slugs make no sense for sage mode. None what so ever. You are just biased to the scene were Tsunade stands on giant slug, Oro on snake, and Jman on Toad.

And name one thing in this entire manga that even hints hashi made a contract with slugs?

lol I aint biased, It makes the most sense for hashi to possess slug SM. Theres shikotsurin(humid bone forest) linking slugs and mokuton together. Theres also tsunade's(the last living senju) affinity towards slugs and healing(hashi's famous for healing which is katsuyu's main trait). Also that argument about slugs being peaceful creatures is terrible. Toads arent meant to be hostile creatures either. But they still teach SM to shinobi who are worthy. If hashi isnt a slug sage then what is he?

And name one thing in this entire manga that even hints hashi made a contract with slugs?

Name one thing in this entire manga that hinted towards hashi possessing sage mode, your turn :rolleyes:

There has never been a shred of evidence pointing to slugs as a sage class. And what evidence to you have that this Forest is slug inhabited and thus linked to mokuton.

Because you have solid proof hashirama used Slug SM? :lmao: your making assumptions at best.

All of the Sannin are based on Japanese folklore. It is similar to rock, paper, scissors. Jiraiya was the toad, Tsunade the slug, and Orochimaru, the serpent. The serpent beats the toad, the toad beats the slug, and the slug beats the serpent.

The speculation comes from that fact. It makes no sense to not only create those characters, but to go as far as creating their own sage mode, respective to the animals they are based on. We know Orochimaru did snakes, but couldn't do sage mode because he didn't have the proper body for it. We assume that there is a slug sage mode, because it fits. Why only do 2, and not 3. Tsunade hasn't shown any signs of being a slug, but we know that Hashirama is her grandpa, and an even greater medical-nin than she is. We know Hashirama is a sage. The most likely candidate would be the only one of the 3 legendary figures, so they'd all be represented.

No, we don't know if that's the case. It may very well not be true, but speculation doesn't hurt, does it? If someone is saying that they KNOW it's the slug sage, they're liars. Only Kishimoto knows that at this point.

Rational speculation should automatically lead people to assume it's slug mode. Again, I refer to the legend which the characters were spawned from. In the legend, the slug did have an affinity for trees, and the forest. Hashi uses mokuton. Again, I understand that this doesn't count as "proof", and I accept the fact that I may vary well be wrong, as it's just speculation. No need to get heated. I actually hope I am wrong, because it would be TOO obvious. But we'll have to wait and see.

[/QUOTE]I never speculated that he had sage mode in the first place.

You however made a statement saying
Slug sage mode is the most likely possibility.

Now, explain how in the world that's the most likely possibility, explain why you linked hashirama to slugs in the first place, otherwise that's just a baseless assumption as the rest of posts in this thread

Please read Psyduck's posts above you, as he explains it pretty thoroughly.
Again, it's all speculation at this point, and we may be right or wrong, but our assumptions are based on a fair amount of evidence and a great deal of past reference.

1. Toads and Snakes both have sage classes, why would it make sense to exclude slugs from that list? We already know kishi likes to draw parallels, sh what makes this any different?

2. the only slug that remotely resembles tsunade's on the planet. Furthermore, if you check the link you will notice tha habitat of said slug is "usually in lawns, gardens, cellars or in other damp areas." Also its said to be seen "hiding during the day beneath stones, under fallen trees, or other obscure and damp places."

^^And all of this relates to the humid bone forest(A humid location, scattered with bones and other obscure objects, as well as being a wooded area, the most common material that the limax maximus inhabits. And its already self explanitory that hashi = wood, so it makes sense that slugs-wood-hashi go handin-hand-in-hand no?

Also there has been no shred of evidence pointing towards hashi having slug sm so why is this idea so farfetched please tell me?

Now, explain how in the world that's the most likely possibility, explain why you linked hashirama to slugs in the first place, otherwise that's just a baseless assumption as the rest of posts in this thread[/COLOR]

Please refer to , Im tired of posting my reasons for hashi possibly having SM.
And honestly take a chill pill, your taking this too seriously. Im merely stating a conclusion i came up with based on what little evidence kishi has shown us regarding SM. I have no idea why you're so against the fact :sy:

Because you have solid proof hashirama used Slug SM? :lmao: your making assumptions at best.

No im not im making a logical conclusion based on what little evidence we have regarding SM. I dont see you comming up with anything better U_U
