Toad Sage Mode
Advantages:

There are numerous advantages while using toad Sage Mode. These include:
  • The user's physical strength, speed, stamina, reflexes, and durability dramatically increase.
  • The user's ninjutsu, genjutsu, and taijutsu become more powerful.
  • The user can harness the natural energy surrounding them, turning it into an extension of their body, which increases the reach of their attacks.
  • The user gains the ability to sense chakra around them.

Disadvantages:

The disadvantages while using toad Sage Mode include:
  • If the user draws in too much natural energy in the attempt to initiate Sage Mode, they run the risk of transforming into a toad, then into stone. If the transformation is completed, it cannot be reversed.
  • In order to gather enough natural energy to initiate the transformation into Sage Mode, the user must remain perfectly still. Because of that, the user can be an easy target for an opponent.
  • Because the user needs to move during combat, the senjutsu chakra cannot be replenished, which means the user can't stay within this state for extended periods of time.
  • The second and third weaknesses mentioned above can be bypassed through the Sage Art: Amphibian Technique, where one Sage gathers chakra for another or as in Naruto's case, shadow clones can be used for the same purpose.
  • After Sage Mode has ended, the user appears to experience exhaustion.

To get around his five minute limit in Sage Mode, Naruto Uzumaki had a scroll created which would summon his shadow clones to the battlefield. When said clone arrives, he would disperse it and transfer its balanced senjutsu chakra to Naruto, allowing him to restore his Sage Mode.

Note: "Naruto can now stay in Sage Mode for ten minutes, as displayed during the Fourth Shinobi World War."

The Frog Kata is a fighting style used exclusively by those who have mastered Sage Mode. The senjutsu chakra used during Sage Mode "activates" the body in various ways, enhancing the user's speed, strength, stamina and durability. This allows a sage to achieve incredible feats which include leaping great distances, shattering sharp materials with their bare hands, as well as lifting objects several times their size.

When using Frog Kata, the natural energy used by the practitioner to create senjutsu chakra also encapsulates the user as an aura of natural energy. This aura can act as an extension of their body and cannot be seen by anyone other than those who have trained in senjutsu. By utilising the aura, the user can extend the range and force of their physical attacks. Strikes that seemingly or would normally miss will actually make contact with the target. One punch has been shown to have enough force to cripple and completely finish off an opponent.

In addition, the enhanced speed and heightened chakra sensing from Sage Mode, combined with the skilful body movements of Frog Kata, allows the practitioner to evade enemy strikes at the last possible moment.

While performing the Frog Kata, Naruto delivers a powerful open-handed strike, sending ripples of natural energy that emanate through the struck target from the initial point of contact.

This is the Sage Mode version of the Big Ball Rasengan. The regular Big Ball Rasengan requires that Naruto make one shadow clone to form the attack and then wield it. When using its Sage Mode variant however, he is able to use two clones to form the attack in both of his hands and then give the Big Ball Rasengan to the clones to wield by themselves. This technique was capable of blasting Pain's summons high into the air.

After creating multiple shadow clones with each of them holding a Rasengan, Naruto then enters Sage Mode. The clones then expand their Rasengan into Ultra-Big Ball Rasengan and simultaneously strike the enemy, resulting in an enormous amount of damage, which could even stun Kurama.

The Sage Art: Ultra-Big Ball Rasengan is a gigantic Rasengan created by Naruto Uzumaki, enhanced with sage chakra. Although its destructive effects have not been seen, it was used to distract Kurama. Presumably, it is as strong as Jiraiya's version which was said to be able to hollow out a mountain if it exploded.

The Sage Technique: Spiralling Serial Spheres is simply two Rasengan used simultaneously. Senjutsu chakra is added to the technique, which greatly enhances the strength of the attack.



With Shima & Fukasaku Summoning:

After focusing Senjutsu chakra to their throats, both Fukasaku and Shima croak together in unison, releasing large, loud and immensely powerful sound waves that effectively annoy, distract and temporarily paralyse any afflicted targets completely.

Shima exhales a massive cloud of dust from her mouth, which is thick enough that it is capable of blocking the target's vision completely. The dust cloud is also large enough to hide a summon as large as Gamabunta.

This is a sound-based genjutsu passed down on Mount Myōboku. Because learning it requires many long years of training, only the Two Great Sage Toads, Fukasaku and Shima, have the skills to perform it. It is said to be the most powerful genjutsu in their arsenal. It is immensely powerful and only has to reach the target's sense of hearing to be a success. Even if there are several hundred targets, they are completely disconnected from each other. Inside the genjutsu world, the targets are surrounded from all sides by four toad samurai, with their mind and body completely sealed between their hands in an illusionary cube of water. The four unmoving toads won't lift the complete binding until the user gives the order.

After the enemies have been caught in the genjutsu, all that is left to do is to strike the finishing blow in the real world, with Mount Myōboku's secret Stone Swords (石剣, Ishiken) which are driven into the targets' hearts like a wedge.

Despite this technique's great power, it takes some time for the users to synchronise melodies, and since it uses sound, it gives away their location, allowing opponents to attack them while it is being prepared. It also makes Shima and Fukasaku's throats dry, meaning it cannot be used repeatedly.

By kneading senjutsu chakra, Fukasaku's long tongue gains utmost solidity and sharpness. It then leaps from his mouth with tremendous speed and force, even tearing a hole in the bedrock and through metal pipes. With that ground-splitting power, the enemy is cut in half. The way that both the enemy and the ground itself are cut apart is reminiscent of the strike of a great sword.

After focusing senjutsu chakra to it, Shima's tongue grows to its maximum limit and is reshaped with a face. The tongue will then seek out the scent of its target. When the target is found, she ensnares it to prevent escape and marks it with a corrosive chemical. After the enemy is found Fukasaku can use the Fighting Tongue Slash on it.

Dragon Sage Mode​
Advantages:

There are numerous advantages granted while using snake Sage Mode. These include:

  • The user's perception abilities, reflexes and speed dramatically increase.
  • The user's ninjutsu becomes more powerful.

  • The user gains further access to snake anatomy, such as their brille, which can be used to lock out light as well as stop visual-based genjutsu from affecting them. They are also able to perform abilities that are characteristic of snakes, such as dislocating their jaw, although this is not exclusive to this mode.

Disadvantages:

  • Like Toad Sage Mode, Snake Sage Mode has similar flaws in that moving too much would disable the user from drawing in natural energy and that remaining still to gather the needed energy leaves the user open to attack. However, for his Sage Mode, Kabuto assimilated the DNA of Jūgo to replicate his clan's ability to passively absorb natural energy, thus allowing him to continuously collect the energy even while moving.

This technique allows the user to control things that have no life functions by gifting them with some of their own life force, allowing the user to freely manipulate the substance according to their will. The extent of the user's control goes beyond normal manipulation through chakra, meaning that even drastic alterations to the immediate environment can occur both suddenly and unexpectedly, making attacks using this method extremely difficult to avoid.

Intense heat — such as that produced by the flames of Amaterasu — can counter the effects of this technique, causing affected inorganic materials to revert to their previous state.

After forming the necessary hand seals, the user expels a dragon-like entity from their mouth that carries an orb in its left front claw. As the dragon tightly coils itself around the orb, it releases both blinding light and deafening sound. This alone greatly hinders those in the vicinity but, due to the intensity of the resulting vibrations, paralysing pain is also induced. Thus, the technique both briefly inhibits the opponent's senses, as well as techniques that require their active concentration.

According to Kabuto, only he is capable of functioning normally whilst this technique is in effect, thanks to the properties of his Sage Mode and his adopted abilities. Due to his snake characteristics, Kabuto can close the cornea of his eyes to completely block the harmful light, whilst instead relying upon the enhanced perception of his other senses to compensate for his obstructed vision. He can also liquefy the insides of his body in order to negate the effects of the harsh sound vibrations.

Kabuto sheds his human skin to enter his snake mode after he gets trapped. It is useful in surprising an enemy who has trapped him. This technique is similar to Orochimaru's Body Shedding, but it is unknown if this regenerates limbs. Another similarity is Kabuto's snake form, which is again similar to Orochimaru's true form.

A technique that allows Kabuto to liquefy his body and the snakes he controls at will, which he created after examining and altering the Hōzuki clan's Hydrification Technique.

By partitioning parts of his body using his own bodily fluids, Kabuto is able to separate portions of himself in a manner reminiscent of a snake shedding its skin, similar to other techniques, while leaving behind only trails of chakra-infused liquid. Due to these resulting trails of fluid, Kabuto can inhibit certain forms of sensing techniques from detecting him, such as dōjutsu. He can also liquefy his insides to prevent himself from experiencing the harmful effects of intense sound vibrations.



With Snake/Dragon Summoning:

This technique allows the user to eject snakes from their wrist or sleeve. This technique can also produce snakes from different parts of the user's body. The snakes are used primarily to attack from a distance and, being snakes, can inflict multiple poisonous wounds on the victim's body or hold them in place.

According to Kabuto, Manda II is bigger, stronger, and has far more acute senses than the original. Its massive strength was shown that, even in the water, it slowed down the Giant Island Turtle with ease, yanking it back. It was able to quickly kill the Giant Squid, leaving a giant bite mark on its head. Being a direct clone of the "strongest colossal serpent", it presumably possesses all of the original Manda's abilities, such as extreme speed and shedding its skin. It is not yet known whether this Manda is able to speak like the previous Manda.

They are the same. However, Kabuto improve his own body to increase the effects to deduce the side-effects or drawbacks. As to say which is better is unknown. +Reps for the effort and Thread.

Thanks everyone, based on SM alone, IMO Kabuto has the better version with his improvements added as I dont think any of Naruto's Rasengans would work since Kabuto can liquify his body. Although with Shima & Fukasaku, he could possibly catch Kabuto in a Genjutsu; Demonic Illusion: Toad Confrontation Chant and probably pull off a win with that.

kabuto can stay in SM longer, has more powerful techniques (muki tensei, sawarmi no mai), faster, more intelligent and more cautious in battle
