All you showed is that there is indeed a time where they need to gather nature energy which I never denied. Hashirama's is clearly faster.
Why are you repeating this same stuff? Them clapping their hands doesn't mean they've begun gathering Nature Energy the moment they've done so. This doesn't contradict anything the manga has stated about Sage Mode. I have posted another scan that shows him entering Sage Mode in the same time frame as he did at VoTE. In 1-2 seconds so I'm not seeing why you are still trying to dispute this.
-Kabuto can passively absorb Nature Energy without being still, Jiraiya cant.

Jiraiya moved around multiple times, re-read that whole entire chapter and you'll see him move.You must be registered for see links, that's already fact...so he wasn't gathering Nature Energy.
The manga doesn't need to state something for it to be completely apparent.
-Base Naruto enters SM slower than BM Naruto.
-Meaning the more chakra you have, the shorter the time interval is for entering Sage Mode.
Where does the manga even state that the nature energy consumption speed has increased because both modes were synced? Unlike my point this point is completely unsupported by manga. Syncing both modes allows him to use SM and BM at the same time, that is what was stated.
-Naruto had more chakra so he absorbed Nature Energy faster.
-Hashirama has more chakra than anyone else who has used it thus far so he absorbs it much faster than they have.
@bold: There is another that show him entering Sage Mode in a much shorter time frame than him and Madara's whole entire conversation. That makes this point completely moot as it shows he wasn't gathering Nature Energy the moment his hands were clapped. Hashirama showed his focus when he clapped his hands and closed his eyes, that is when he started to gather his Nature Energy.
You must be registered for see linksclearly isn't as large as the conversation, which you are using as the base of your assertion that Hashirama takes a longer time than I think to enter Sage Mode. This is the third time I'm posting this scan.
You are believing what you want to believe. In all cases, the hands are clasped or clapped together to gather Natural Energy. It's more pronounced in case of Kabuto, as they snakes even grew bigger. There is no reason to do otherwise. What the manga has established through several other characters, cannot simply be denied, just because the manga itself accelerated the action - Hashirama's original inititaion STILL holds, no matter how many time you deny it.
He says let's go here -

He is still charging here, as we never see him clap his hands together -

How did you simply assume it's one second - when even on that image it doesn't seem that way?
All people go through the same process -
- Clasping hands.
- Gathering of Natural Energy.
- Physical alterations or pronounced difference around the eyes.
It's the same for every character that ever entered in SM. Naruto is actually the fastest, because it hardly took him 6 - 8 seconds max to enter SM on the battle-field. Hashirama? Not a chance.
I am sorry, how are you making this connection? BM Naruto doesn't recharge his chakra for the mode, Kurama does. The mode is synced by Kurama - thatb is actually the third step, which is skipped for Naruto's ease. So if the Natural Energy consumption is made faster, it isn't out of the world. Heck, that syncing is the whole deal -

- All he has to do is gather it. Nor can you even compare Hashirama who neither is a vessel, nor does he have BM Naruto's Chakra. Even the thought is flabbergasting. Nothing of the sort is even implied in the manga. Not even once. All we know is that Large Chakra reserves are a requirement for SM. The ones with perfect sage mode should have similar Initiation times. What holds true for Kabuto and Naruto, should hold true for Hashirama. It's just that simple. The manga doesn't need to over-state things. The image you should be in no way translates into one-second.
Again, an assumption. People are shown to talk, use technique, attack even whilst they gather natural energy. I even posted the scans. This is no way proves that he was not gathering natural energy, when Naruto does the exact same thing, and the colour around his eyes changes. This physical change is a clear indication that the Initiation is complete. It doesn't - in the remotest sense imply that Naruto or DSM Kabuto were gathering energy only the time the physcial change occured.
What about Jiraiya? -

- He clearly states here that he is about to enter SM. What's there to dispute, when the character himswelf states that he is doing so? Moved more than just a muscle here -

. Talked the whole time, in fact. That image is obviously for Naruto's training as even a single mistake could turn him into a frog -

You don't have to repost that scan; I have read the manga as well. Still don't see this logic of panel = time.
