[Theory] Elder Son Dōjutsu

[Transcendence]

Well I was implying that being able to draw in natural energy isn't all that is needed for sennin mode. The OP implies that it is something that someone can just awaken if they have the ability to gather natural energy.

I rooted that within the OP due to Sasuke's past use of Senjutsu. Back then it was force fed to him but he himself was duly suited to use it. Not only does he have Juugo's DNA within him that aided Kabuto in passively absorbing nature chakra, he has Hashirama's chakra, which might adhere to some use of Senjutsu, as the technique Hashirama gave him is supposed to respond to Senjutsu (scan is in the OP).​

I think Kishimoto knows the difference between concentric circles from spirals, no, that is how the Elder Son's eyes really look like

I think SDO got this one.

Great thread.

Something to add. I feel that the wounds placement is highly important to saving Sasuke. The wound itself is inflicted right where the mass of Juugo's flesh and chakra is centered within Sasuke, the fact that (at least I strongly believe) it is Kabuto showing up at this point, who knows the inner workings of Juugo's clan's ability as well as anyone, is highly important as well. Perhaps to kick-start Sasuke's respiratory and circulatory systems, Kabuto will activate the cells within Sasuke.

Hashirama's chakra will perhaps restrain him if he has problems balancing the chakra which will keep him from becoming a danger to himself and others. I believe that Hashirama may be banking on Madara's inability to balance the Natural Energy he took, which might be why the jutsu was created in the first place, to keep from suffering the negative effects of Natural Energy and allowing the user to balance their chakra with it, the restraint is necessary. The fact that Madara's senjutsu chakra may only be able to have balanced due to Hashirama's cells within him, his Uchiha Yin energy may be subject to the jutsu's restriction, which would add some significance to Orochimaru's words.

I will add that to the OP sooner or later.​

Fair enough

I'm not sure how I missed this, but was Kishimoto hinting at this power-up (or another Senjutsu-Mangekyou power-up) the whole time.

Kishimoto shows Juugo giving Senjutsu chakra to Sasuke. His eyes are partially obfuscated by Kishimoto, but it's clear by the black "whites" of his eyes that he has Senjutsu chakra in him. He's also not loosing control....

That his Iris isn't shown is what's most interesting...

That's also a very good point. Along with Robot's point, I'll add this to the OP as well.​

This is the best theory I've read about Sasuke on NB... You stated logical points and they all made sense.. Not saying that this is 100% sure to happen but I honestly dig it.
Loved it!!!!!!

Hope you make one about Naruto cause you seem like an open minded guy..

Good read.....however, I don't think Madara will have the same senjutsu weakness as Obito because, unlike Obito, Madara absorbed senjutsu chakra beforehand...we will see tho.

Obito wasn't weak again senjutsu, he wasn't able to nullify it w/ omyoudon like regular ninjutsu. The way omyoudon works shouldn't really change.
