Reincarnated as Naruto, Garp template

"Because of the war?"

"Yes, they just came from the battlefield in the Land of Rivers, and they could be back on the battlefield at any time."

"So, humans..."

Sesame Fairy can't say too much either.

Centuries have passed, but humanity has remained unchanged, constantly accompanied by war.

After rambling on for a while, Master Shima finally stopped.

Immediately afterwards, the two immortals began to teach Kazan and Minato Namikaze Sage Mode respectively.

So-called magic is actually a kind of natural energy.

The Otsutsuki clan is said to have brought chakra into this world, but natural energy has always existed since ancient times.

However, only a very few beings, such as the immortals of the three holy lands, know how to absorb and utilize this energy.

The legendary Sage of Six Paths learned his magic from the Great Toad Sage.

When natural energy and the chakra produced by the human body reach a certain balance and perfectly blend together, Sage Chakra, which transcends both natural energy and human energy, will be born.

This is Sage Mode!

To cultivate immortal arts, the first step is to sense and absorb natural energy.

During this process, the hermit Fukasaku will use toad oil, a local specialty of Mount Myōboku, to assist him.

"Alright, Kazan, take your clothes off first."

Kazan did as he was told, taking off his shirt and sitting down, allowing Fukasaku to pour toad oil all over his body.

"This feeling... is very special."

Kazan sensed something unusual after being drizzled with toad oil.

His Observation Haki allows him to subtly detect energy moving in the air.

"Your five senses are very sharp, that is natural energy. However, if you want to complete the cultivation of immortal techniques, you still need to absorb natural energy into your body."

The immortal nodded.

Jiraiya, of course, trained in Sage Mode, but he got stuck on this step for a long time.

However, Kazan has keen senses and can perceive natural energy by applying toad oil, saving him a lot of time.

Chapter 100 Cultivating Immortal Mode

"This child is quite remarkable."

The immortal Shen Zuo sighed in his heart.

Only the man known as the Sage of Six Paths from a thousand years ago could sense natural energy so quickly.

Soon, Kazan tried to inhale the natural energy in the air.

As a sacred place in the ninja world, Mount Myōboku has the most abundant natural energy, which is spread in the air in a sticky and thick manner.

"Since you can feel it, you won't hesitate to inhale it."

Kazan began to take control of his body, opening all the pores to absorb natural energy.

"It's possible, quite easily."

"Wait, Kazan, you can't inhale too much at once..."

The immortal was getting anxious.

Natural energy cannot be absorbed indiscriminately. Too little has no effect, while too much will cause one to become like a frog, or even turn into a stone forever and be unable to recover.

Kazan was well aware of the dangers of practicing magic.

Therefore, when Fukasaku hurriedly pulled out his black club to disperse the natural energy within Kazan's body.

Gradually, he noticed something was wrong.

He waited for a while, then waited for a while longer, but Kazan still did not turn into a frog.

"How could this be? He absorbed so much natural energy and didn't turn into a frog. Just how much chakra does he have?"

The hermit was shocked.

He was not a ninja from any particular clan, yet his chakra was as vast as that of the First Hokage.

After waiting for a while, Kazan finally underwent a change; his hands began to resemble frog forelegs, and he began to transform into a frog.

"Snapped!"

The sage Fukasaku jumped up and struck him with his staff, scattering the natural energy within his body.

“If you can’t skillfully manipulate natural energy, you’ll turn into a toad,” he warned Kazan. “Absorbing natural energy requires maintaining a balance with your own energy.”

"Too little and you won't be able to use magic; too much and you'll turn into a toad."

Fukasaku also told Kazan that the so-called balance is not just about balancing two things, but about balancing all three.

Human chakra is generated from cells and spiritual energy. After natural energy is absorbed, the energy in the body will be divided into three types.

He needs to maintain a balance among the three abilities and fuse them to create a higher level of energy in order to enter the Sage Mode state.

"If that's the case, then it's not because the chakra within me is far greater than Naruto's."

Kazan thought that after Garp's template fusion reached 60%, the chakra in his body surpassed that of Naruto from the Uzumaki clan.

Looking back now, it was probably because of my Conqueror's Haki.

His will and spirit are too strong; no ninja in this world can compare.

"That would be a bit troublesome."

The stronger the body's internal energy, the more difficult it is to maintain balance.

Of course, once he completes his cultivation, he will be able to remain in the immortal mode for an even longer period of time.

"Immortal Shenzuo, can you assist several people in their cultivation at the same time?"

"Four? What's wrong?"

The immortal master Fukasaku did not know what he meant by asking this question.

"Four? That's a bit few, but it's okay."

He only remembered that in the original work, Naruto also used shadow clones to help him cultivate Sage Mode.

However, it's impossible for Fukasaku to have a single frog looking after thousands of shadow clones at the same time; there's a limit.

The limit is 4.

Since that's the case.....

"Bang bang bang~"

Kazan created three shadow clones in one go.

"Thank you for your trouble, Master Fukasaku."

Multiple Shadow Clone Technique?

It's amazing that you came up with this idea.

"Practice without worry, leave the rest to me."

The four kaka nodded in agreement, sat cross-legged, and controlled their bodies to inhale a large amount of natural energy.

A moment later, the hermit Fukasaku swung his large club and struck hard.

The three shadow clones were instantly destroyed, and their memories returned to their brains along with their chakra.

It hurts a little, but only a little.

In the original story, Naruto was beaten black and blue by Fukasaku, but such an attack only caused Kazan some stinging pain.

Instead of rushing to start, I organized and summarized my thoughts, and made rapid progress.

Then, he created three shadow clones to assist in his cultivation.

A while later, Fukasaku's staff came down, and the three shadow clones were scattered again.

This stick is no ordinary stick; its material is probably similar to the black rod used by Pain, and it has the effect of suppressing chakra.

His shadow clone disappeared after being struck once.

"Could it be something left behind by the Sage of Six Paths?" Kazan glanced at the staff, shook his head, and continued to ponder, accumulating experience.

He learned very quickly, and in just one day he had already found three tricks for balancing energy.

Kazan opened his eyes and stood up.

At this moment, his appearance changed; his eyes turned dark gold, but his pupils did not transform into the shape of a frog.

However, black markings similar to those of the First Hokage, Hashirama Senju, appeared on his face.

"How is this going?"

Fukasaku Sennin didn't understand.

Humans who complete their Sage Mode training at Mount Myōboku will exhibit certain frog-like characteristics after entering Sage Mode.

Only the Sage of Six Paths from a thousand years ago did not show such traces.

"Could it be a physique like the Sage of Six Paths?"

"No, compared to the Sage of Six Paths recorded in history, Kazan looks more like the First Hokage now."

Shen Zuoxian thought to himself.

The First Hokage was also a ninja who had mastered Sage Mode.

However, the First Hokage's Sage Mode did not belong to any of the three great holy lands; he comprehended and mastered it on his own.

He once asked the Great Toad Sage, who only told him that Hashirama Senju had a special constitution.

"Could it be that Kazan Jr., like the First Hokage, possesses a special physique?"

When it comes to special physical attributes, Kazan certainly possesses them.
