I think the 3rd sage tech that was mentioned about in the manga is related to Tsunade or to her summonings. think about it, it conforms to the general pattern of the story - The 3 legendary sannins, the 3 sages. Also Tsunade is shown to be able to gather and store chakra in her forehead seal. Tsunade has also said she has a third power in store: For me this power is either Sage Mode or Mokuton ( I have a theory on that).

since jiraya a sage and as we kno now oro was on his way to becoming a snake sage himslef

Possible, but we've yet to see Tsunade use any sage techniques...

Sounds about right but the fight against madara doesnt seem like a time to hold out

This isn't the sort of battle she should be thinking *hmmm sage mode? Naaahh Madara isn't worth it...*

What chapter did Tsunade say she has a 3rd power?

wait since Orochimaru took the power away from kabuto, shouldnt he know sage mode now? And it would be pretty cool if Tsunade had Sage Mode too! She also has some of her grandfathers jutsu and she has his strength.

Yeah i agree. I would find it hard to believe that she wouldnt have pulled sage mode the min Madara showed up. Or used it when pain blasted the whole village....

No oro does not have the proper body for sage mode said earlier in the manga.

I agree with you there. If she doesn't pull out something against the OP Madara then I'm going to be disappointed

I agree with you.
I'm certain that she must be a sage.

Hmmm...I'm gonna go with everyone else and say, "Possible, but why didn't she whip it out right away?" here. One could make the argument that she's not very confident in her Sage Skills, or perhaps she doesn't have a strong resistance to the Sage Chakra Transformations...but still, I think at this point, with Madara, it's either do and die, or just die...

So, while it'd probably be AWESOME, I think it'd look like a Plot no Jutsu at this point. Hey, maybe one of her summons teaches her some basics in the middle of the fight, and she manages to win that way...that'd be sweet.
