Sage Mode is a very obscure power that only a handful of people have ever mastered in Naruto, even though it has been there since the time of Hagoromo Otsutsuki. To make it work, the user combines their chakra with the natural energy. This, in turn, grants them the ability to create new jutsu and grants them more speed and strength beyond their natural threshold.

Mastering Sage Art is a very difficult process, and only those who are geniuses can achieve this rare power. Because of that, there are only a handful of people who have this phenomenal ability. Hashirama is one of the strong individuals who could use this ability, and he is one of its best users. That said, there are a handful of people who rank even above him.

  • Sage Mode Type: Six Paths Senjutsu

Obito was the man who plunged the world into chaos to reach his goals. He was a very powerful individual who received the power of a god, and with it, he was able to easily match the ninja alliance. Furthermore, his strength even surpassed the likes of the Kage, who are known to be the strongest in their village. He was able to fight against individuals such as Naruto, Sasuke, Kakashi, and many more, without any problem. He achieved this when he wasn't a complete Jinchuriki and didn't have full control of his powers. Obito was able to achieve this in a very small amount of time, which makes it even more terrifying. This raises the question of how powerful he would have become if he had become a complete Jinchuriki for the Ten-Tails.

Hamura Otsutsuki

Ancestor of The Hyuga Clan

Hamura Otsutsuki Naruto
  • Sage Mode Type: Six Path Senjutsu

Hamura is the twin brother of Hagaromo and is a character who didn't get fleshed out that much. But in the anime, his upbringing is shown, from which it is clear to see that he was a phenomenal senjutsu user. He is able to fight against Ten-Tails with only a few power-ups when compared to his brother. Hamura only had a handful of powers, but Senjutsu was his forte, as he only possessed Byakugan. This showed that his proficiency in this art somewhat exceeded his brother's, as he was able to fight against Ten-Tails with little to no powers. Furthermore, he also possessed the Truth-seeking Orbs, which further cemented him as one of the best Senjutsu users in existence.

  • Sage Mode Type: Six Path Senjutsu

Madara Uchiha is the former leader of the Uchiha clan and the rival of Hashirama Senju. He is an extremely powerful character who was able to fight an army on his own and defeat the Five Kage with ease. During the war, he became the perfect Jinchuriki of the Ten-Tails and achieved godhood. With it also came the power of Senjutsu, which he used to its full potential. Madara was able to use many powerful jutsu that could easily destroy entire armies. In this form, only a few people were able to match his strength, such as Naruto, Sasuke, and Guy. This makes him one of the strongest in the world, and his existence itself was a threat to everyone.

Naruto was introduced to Sage Mode after the death of Jiraiya, and he learned it under the tutelage of Fukasaku. He became a Sage Mode user that surpassed the likes of his master and father, which was confirmed by Fukasaku. According to him, even Jiraiya paled in comparison. Furthermore, during the war, Tobirama praised Naruto's mastery over Sage Mode. After receiving the Six Paths Sage Mode, Naruto became even stronger, and this pushed him to reach the level of the strongest beings in the world. Naruto continued to shock even his opponents, who were surprised by his feats of strength.

This helped him immensely during his fight against Kaguya, as the entire planet became a battlefield for their fight.
