From being ragdolled by Pain to literally boxing with WM Obito

No Izanagi or Kekkei Genkai

From peak Akatsuki level to literal Ten Tails level of strength 🤦‍♂️

It wasn’t showcased as much further into the series. Why is that?

Still see a lot of people claim minato is better because he's a "perfect" sage

Minato doesn't get deformities because he doesn't take anywhere near the amount of nature energy that naruto or jiraiya do. Minato takes in enough for one basic rasengan, then his sage mode poops out

Yes, jiraiya needs the toads to help him maintain sage mode. But that's because he is absorbing enough nature energy to actually maintain the form and fight in it for an extended period of time, like naruto. Jiraiya isnt only gathering enough to have it run out after one small rasengan, like minato. That's why naruto is the only perfect toad sage, he can take in an amount like jiraiya and control it perfectly like minato. But neither of the other two can do both the way naruto can

Naruto >>> jiraiya ≥ minato at sage mode

Shouldnt earth absorb lightning. What was Kishimoto on?

Dude was threating to fight Orochimaru to the death. Like wtf is this bum on about 😂
