Jiraiya, aka Pervy Sage, aka Perverted Hermit, aka Ero Sennin

On the latest Naruto manga chapter, Naruto manga chapter 409 , titled "Passing Down The Sage Techniques" , Naruto follows Fukasaku to Myobokuzan, a place where the frogs summons are, and the place where Jiraiya learnt all his sage techniques.

It’s interesting to see Naruto get to Myobokuzan by "reverse" Kochiyose no jutsu. Nice! And Fukasaku’s going to have a hard time making Naruto understand theories in the training (we all know Naruto’s never good with theories!). Gladly there’s Gamabunta, who has been so used to Naruto since Naruto able to summon him (that’s good old few years ago).

So, what basically is "Sage Techniques" ?

1 . Unlike Ninja techniques, instead of using the energy within you, Sage techniques make use of energy within you AND the energy surrounding you.

2 . Sage techniques use three elements of chakra; the chakra that are born from spiritual energy and physical energy within you, PLUS the natural energy surrounding you.

3 . Surrounding energy used are the energy of atmosphere and the earth, aka air and the ground.

4 . In order to "feel" the energy, you need to die!!

"How" would Naruto die in order to absorb Sage techniques, is still in question. Find out on next chapter spoilers!!
