Senjutsu is really cool but not for all! Except you try to hack your way through it if you want you are desperate for it.

So what's Senjutsu anyways? It's Nature energy (N.E) + your chakra ( spiritual and bodily chakra or energy). But it's not just Nature's Energy + your chakra, it must be well balanced. When it's well balanced, then you awaken Senjutsu Chakra.

If properly balanced, the Senjutsu Chakra can then be used to enter Sage mode immediately or you can decide to store it up for later use in battle when Sage Mode is needed.

If the N.E you took in is not enough, you can't awaken Senjutsu Chakra. If you took too much which will be difficult to balance, your body suffers or dies or turns your to stone. So the need for mastering awakening Senjutsu Chakra is needed. This why it took Naruto a while to master.

It appears as though the stronger your body and the larger your chakra reserve, the more you will likely be able to hold more Senjutsu Chakra. Take for instance, Hashirama Senju is more likely to hold more Senjutsu Chakra than Naruto Uzumaki, Naruto than Jiraya.

Although they will all have their Senjutsu Chakra vanished after few minutes (probably the same time frame for each for each of them), no matter how large each user may accumulate.

Now, it happens that some people like Jugo are blessed by nature. Their body automatically and constantly absorbs N.E but without control giving rise to excess N.E in their bodies. They ought to die or turn to stone. But no, thanks to nature their bodies have an enzyme which prevents that. So they transform into Monster like figures not stones. This gives them a new type of power... This is what is known as Sage Transformation. The drawn back of Sage Transformation is loss of sanity, while that of Sage Mode is limited time of using Sage Mode.

Both Sage Mode and Sage Transformation are cool, but it's a matter of which one do you prefer?

Mind you Orochimaru's boy (Mizuki) is a perfect make of Jugo. Mizuki has Jugo's enzyme engineered in him. He can easily absorb N.E and experience Sage Transformation without loss of Sanity.

Kabuto got Jugo's enzymes and could use both Sage mode and Sage Transformation without loss of Sanity.

Now i prefer both Sage Mode and Sage Transformation together in use, it's the ultimate against any of the individual two.

Take for instance, i am Jugo. I have Sage Transformation inherited automatically, next i go to master Balancing N.E and my Chakra, bamm! I can now use sage mode.

Orochimaru could mold Senjutsu Chakra but could enter Sage mode because of his body, if he had inherited Jugo's enzyme, he did be able to use Sage Transformation. This is what he perfected in Mizuki.

Hope this helps my friend.

i forgot to mention that the current Orochimaru could have used sage mode in the last great ninja war if the body of the white Zetsu (having Hashirama's cell) could handle it. It probably couldn't that's why orochimaru couldn't use sage mode even though he had Senjutsu chakra. If at all he forced it up, it could result to imperfect sage mode.

Thanks.

You don't get it. It was about why there's a difference between senjutsu chakra and sage mode.

Jugo uses senjutsu chakra. Naruto uses sage mode.

Although nobody separated them because sage mode is senjutsu chakra's state.
