Six Paths Sage Mode (六道仙人モード, Rikudō Sennin Mōdo) is a form which enhances the user's abilities to a far greater extent by utilising the Six Paths Sage Chakra. It is a divine state gifted by Hagoromo Ōtsutsuki to those who have an iron faith and the guts to never give up.

Attributes

Naruto's Nine-Tails Chakra Mode used with Six Paths Sage Mode for the first time.

This state is indicated with Naruto's pupils consisting of a cross of vertical fox-slits with horizontal toad-slats, and there is no pigmentation around his eyes that would otherwise signify the standard Sage Mode. These eyes have appeared as yellow and later orange. This mode increases the user's physical parameters well above that of Sage Mode and the Nine-Tails Chakra Mode, as Naruto was to kick Truth-Seeking Balls. As a heightened state of Sage Mode, Naruto's jutsu are augmented with larger amounts of natural energy to make them stronger. With the power he received from Hagoromo, Naruto has the innate ability to grasp the nature of chakra and comprehend all universal things: his sensing ability rises, to the point where he can sense and thus react to the invisible shadows in the world of Limbo.

Naruto's Asura Kurama Mode.

In conjunction with his Six Paths Sage Mode, Naruto can shroud himself in a chakra-cloak like other jinchūriki forms to push his abilities even further, such as becoming fast enough to catch Kaguya Ōtsutsuki off guard and durable enough to take a Chidori unharmed. Naruto can also create Tailed Beast Ball and chakra arms, and enter a Tailed Beast Mode of the Nine-Tails that rivals Sasuke's Complete Body — Susanoo in size and power. After using shadow clones to create several Tailed Beast Modes, Naruto can combine the clones' transformations into a single battle avatar with three faces and six arms, similar to what Asura once used. This form is known as "Asura Kurama Mode" (アシュラクラマモード, Ashura Kurama Mōdo). This mode allowed Naruto to use the Six Paths: Ultra-Big Ball Rasenshuriken, which was able to match with Sasuke's strongest attack on collision and cause the Valley of the End and the surrounding area to be devastated.

Trivia

Naruto's face in the original colourised chapters.

• In the Shikamaru Hiden novel, it is suggested that having the chakra of all nine tailed beasts is also a requirement to obtain this mode.
• In the colourised versions of chapters 676 and 678 included in digital editions of Weekly Shōnen Jump, Naruto's eyes in this mode were depicted with orange irides, much like his previous transformations. Later illustrations coloured by Masashi Kishimoto instead depict Naruto with yellow irides. The colouration was corrected in subsequent chapters and the Naruto: Colour Edition release of volume 71.
• In VIZ Shonen Jump, Naruto's Six Paths Sage Mode was attributed to the Six Paths Yang Power. However, this is not mentioned in the manga or the databooks.
