Obito's Rikudō Sennin was able to negate essentially all Ninjutsu. However, Senjutsu like Sage Mode proved effective against him.
Sage Mode is achieved when the user carefully and successfully merges:
- his internal Mental Energy (精, Yang)
- his internal Physical Energy (身, Yin)
- his surroundings' Natural Energy (自, Darker)
• Obito's Rikudō Sennin versus Mitsu-domoe •
Naruto -
When the Tailed Beast Mode is merged with Sage Mode, a theoretical, alternative way of looking at this would be representing Naruto, Kurama and Natural Energy with each tomoe:
Sasuke -
With Jūgo absorbing Natural Energy for Sasuke, Senjutsu-Susanoo may be represented as:
Finally, merging Naruto's [Sage-Tailed Beast Mode] and Sasuke's [Senjutsu-Susanoo] and representing Naruto, Sasuke and Natural Energy with each tomoe, it may also appear that:
• Madara's Rikudō Sennin versus Mitsu-domoe •
That Senjutsu is effective may also hold true against Madara's Rikudō Sennin.
The teamwork of Minato Namikaze, Kakashi Hatake and Gaara in Chapter 665 may be similarly represented with each tomoe.
• Sasuke-and-Naruto's Rikudō Sennin versus Mitsu-domoe •
Madara's Rikudō Sennin attempted to attack Sasuke and Naruto (each received half of Hagoromo Ōtsutsuki's powers) with the technique, Sage Art: Shadow Style Thunder Blast.
The technique may be broken down and, again, may be represented with each tomoe.
The technique was rather unsuccessful because Naruto was able to counter Senjutsu with Senjutsu.
