Plus the reason Naruto mastered it so fast was because of kurama and the reason he can use it continuously and multiple times is because of kurama. No kurama, then Naruto takes time to learn and master it, maybe he still has a time limit to it and can't use it multiple times without clones.

This is legitimately not true. Kurama had no part in Naruto's Sage Training, except when he specifically tried to inhibit his Sage Training lol.

Naruto is a Perfect Sage without Kurama, and we see by Naruto Gaiden he's able to enter it quickly enough and sustain it long enough for it to be practical to use just travelling.

When Kurama's chakra is mixed with Sage chakra, Naruto gets cross-slits with pigmentation (unless Naruto is already in SPSM). Sage Mode is not a power that Kurama helped Naruto master
