It's confirmed

[Joshutsu]

There have been 2 of the 3 big summons who had sage mode. Come on people this is denial all over again IMO. We have been saying slugs are from that forest for ages because it only made sense this manga is full of parallels and now it's confirmed.

I am more leaning to Tsunade using it because it's mentioned by orochimaru when they go to heal who? Who is not going where? To do what? Fight.

I'm not against Sakura using it though i rather now have people in an uproar about asspulling when many other characters have recieved this benefit, heck look at kabuto.

There has to be a reason these 3 places are equally famous or legendary or whatever you want to say. It must be sage mode or something just as good.

Show me a Manga page where it says: "One of the three places to learn Sage Mode is Shikkotsu Forest". . . hmm

The Shikkotsu forest is just as legendary & famous as mt. Myoboku, now why would a place as equal & renown as the frog/snake sage areas not be an inheritor that same power...?

Im sorry but i dont see any other reasonable explanation

enma is old, really old, a hundred + most likely... I don't think summoning animals die so easily*have human like lifespans)... for example, the great toad sage, snake sage etc..

I agree with the great elders, but those are only the elder sage animals & their descendants. I highly doubt that all summoned animals have ridiculously long lifespans because only the special sage animals are shown to possess this trait.

Im not saying its impossible, but do you seriously think that hashi's summoned animal is still alive? even after over 100 years (obvious estimation ).

And Son goku wouldn't have been sealed in jinchuriki for all his life... the bijuu have roamed free before...lets not forget they have been on the planet since the death of Rikkudo.. The animals would have been in their respective places, possibly even then have sage mode mastered.. Why is it unlikely , that in his hundreds of years of roaming, he met, or entered the monkey realm and became the king of sage monkeys

PS- The english viz translation was made as "Four-Tails, the King of Sage Monkeys" (四尾・仙猿の王 "Yonbi: Sen'en no

Which as I said, practically confirms Sage monkeys

(Lol damn viz! :T_T Well I guess monkey SM is a possibility, but think about it, how many sage animals have we seen? We've seen ma, pa & the great elders right?

I just dont logically see why goku would call himself king of sage monkeys if theres only 1 great elder sage monkey & possibly his/her children (same as ma/pa). Thats a very small amount of subjects, no?

I guess it kinda makes sense because monkeys are prideful by nature but idk to me it seems a bit off :dunno:

I believe that you didn't read what I wrote. hmm

I also think that there is a Slug Sage Mode, but the thing is. . . it's not confirmed yet! Some people act as if it is so. . . which is totally wrong. :yeah:
