How come? I haven't been following what things have to come together for him to activate whichever sage mode but he had a good number in the fight against Kaguya. As stated by Minato, Truth-Seeking Balls aren't created, but activated. If they are lost or destroyed. the user won't be able to generate any more of them. That's why Minato teleporting Madara's TSBs was crucial since he wouldn't be able to make more. During his battles against Madara, Kaguya, and Sasuke, Naruto kept on losing/destroying his TSBs and couldn't make any more. Hence, why he only had three when he "fully" activated SPSM during his fight with Sasuke. Naruto most likely got his remaining TSBs destroyed during the Six Paths: Ultra Big-Ball Rasenshuriken vs Indra's Arrow clash with Sasuke
