The Sage of the Six Paths (六道仙人, Rikudō Sennin) was the legendary figure who founded the arts of ninjutsu and created the ninja world. He defeated the Ten-Tails and sealed it within his own body, thus becoming the first jinchūriki.

What we know About The Sage (Facts)

According to Jiraiya, the Sage was a monk who appeared long ago in an age of endless war. He was the first to discover the truth of chakra, and with it he tried to lead the world to an era of peace instead of conflict. He travelled across the land, spreading his ideal and religion, the Shinobi Sect (忍宗, Ninshū), which eventually came to be known as ninjutsu. His great deeds and ultimate desire to bring peace to the war-torn world made him widely known as the Saviour of this World (この世の救世主, Kono Yo no Kyūseishu).[1]
Centuries before the beginning of the main storyline, the sage defeated the most powerful demon in the ninja world, the Ten-Tails, and was praised as a god for the virtue of his victory. In order to protect the world from the Ten-Tails, the Sage developed a certain technique to seal the beast within his own body, giving him the ability to harness and control its overwhelming power; he became the first jinchūriki. However, this offered only a temporary solution. In the event of his death, the seal would break and the Ten-Tails would once again be unleashed upon the world.


Possible Ways he could have beaten the 10 Tails​

  • The Rinnegan is reputed as the most exalted eyes amongst the Three Great Dōjutsu (三大瞳術, San Daidōjutsu; Literally meaning "Three Great Eye Techniques").It was admired as being able to bring forth all ninjutsu.Based on data collected over the years, Kabuto Yakushi and Orochimaru theorised that because the Sharingan originated from the Rinnegan, it was possible for the dōjutsu to devolve into the Rinnegan as part of a "natural evolution".​

  • Senjutsu (仙術; Literally meaning "Sage Techniques") refers to a specialised field of techniques that allows the user to sense and then gather the natural energy (自然エネルギー, shizen enerugī) around a person.​

  • The Sage wielded unique tools which became known as the Treasured Tools of the Sage of the Six Paths, each of which possess a unique and powerful ability, but all of which require a vast reservoir of chakra, which would quickly kill any normal human, in order to be used. Being the jinchūriki of the Ten-Tails, this posed no problem at all for the Sage. The five treasures are: the Bashōsen, Benihisago, Kōkinjō, Shichiseiken, and the Kohaku no Jōhei. By combining the Benihisago, Kōkinjō, and Shichiseiken, the Sage (or any user) can capture the word soul of his victims, and then draw them into the gourd and seal them away. The Bashōsen can generate any of the five basic elements. The Kohaku no Jōhei can seal anyone without the elaborate procedures used for the Benihisago.​

    Global Drawbacks Of above Theories
    • No Pic Of Sage Before the Fight with Jubbi are shown
    • In Most Pics We Only See the Back and Most Of the sage In shadows
    • Most Of Our Info On Sage Is Based on the Imagination Of Jiriraya and Nagato
  • Theory 6 : Coming From
    This Complex theory Can Be Summed as :
    • The Sage Was born In The age of war when the juubi was creating havoc
    • He did not have Reningan at Birth
    • He fought The Juubi with a Perfect Body And hax sealing tech
    • He Sealed the Juubi within Himself And Gained the Reningan
    • The reningan can be Obtained by Removing the Redness And Tomoe Of the Juubi's eye(Like Naruto)
    • The Sage Tried to Lesssen the Hatred Obtained
    • The Juubi Had 9 tomoe in his eyes , When the Sage Brought 6 tomoe to his neck .This left 3 tomoe for the Sharingan hence They retaining the Hatred Of Juubi
    • The Uchiha Elder Son Eye were derived from the Juubi hence containing Hatred Of the Juubi
    • Some Of the Descendants Of The Elder Son Tried to Lessen the hatred Of Juubi and Thus got the Byakugan and came to be known as Hyuga
    • Some Of the Descendants Of The Elder Son retained their hatred came to be known as Uchiha
    • From The Younger Son Came two Branches called "Uzumaki" and "Senju"

    Possible Future Scenarios
    • Sasuke represents the Elder Son ie Sage's eyes
    • Naruto represents the younger son ie Sage's Body
    • They have a epic fight in the end with equal probability of Either one Dying or Both dying


    Drawbacks
    • The Tailed Beasts considering Naruto the Reincarnation of Sage
    • Too Many Assumpsions
    • A little Underestimation Of Juubi
  • Theory X : A Good Theory
    I read a Theory like this on Another Forum Which I found Intresting and wanted to Share. This Theory Concerns The future Of So6p rather than his Past thats why it has X Rating :p .
    The Theory Says That the Guy was Called Sage Of Six Paths then The Number Six Must Have a Effect in future .
    According to the theory The Sage Of six Path Left behind Six Clans Behind From His 2 Sons . And the person Having The DNA Of all Six Clans will Be Closest To SO6P
    According to Him The 6 Clans Maybe Talented In Different Ninja Tech And the Clans may be


    • Ninjutsu : Senju
    • Genjutsu : Uchiha
    • Taijutsu : Hyuga
    • Fuinjutsu : Uzumaki
    • Senjutsu : Jugo's Clan
    • Kenjutsu : Not Sure But The Kiri Swordsmen

    Some Little hints Droped by Kishi that support this theory




    I am Not Sure about the last Category and The Last Clan
    U guys Can Suggest The last Category and the Clan That we can put there

This Post Is Still Incomplete. I will Soon Add Proofs Of Different Theories On Here

I am Leaving One Open Slots For U Guys to Post Your Theories. Guys Slot #6 was awarded to . I sincerly Belive u Will enjoy his View Of the Story. Hurry Guys only one slot left.

I wanted to stop reading after you said "Uzumaki, less powerful body of the sage"(Even though Uzumaki's were revered for their stamina,healing abilities, and lifeforce, while senju were just revered for their ninjutsu)...but then i realized that theory 1 was either made by someone else, or just completely fabricated.

Theory 2. Just some random fact: We have not seen pics of the sage with rennigan before he fought the Juubi.

I like the theories, I also like that you were not biased and thought about all the drawbacks of all theories even your own.

I however have my own theories but they are really really really long. And like 3 separate threads I can sum it up I guess I will post links of them but like I said their long.

The sage of six paths was not born with the rinnegan
He had all 3 sage modes and sealing techs (Only body feats no doujutsu feats)
The juubi's eye is the origin of the rinnegan (s06p) then later the byakugan and sharingan
The sage was split up into 4 main clans. Senju, uzumaki, uchiha and hyuga.

Reading that you would feel that hmm could be possible but with the threads I am almost certain in all of them.

I will post them you can scan through them

"Senju, Uzumaki, Uchiha and Hyuga all descendants of the SO6P. Fully Explained!"



"Guys I have finally figured it out !!! Juubi, Sage, Sons."




"Byakugan origins."


If you read through all the main points in those threads you will learn what I believe.

I use to think into these subjects a lot but stopped to busy these days so I am waiting for kishi
