Legendary Super Saiya-Jin 4 wrote: How anyone can say that Naruto and Sasuke are equals after this fight is beyond me. Naruto, who was nearly out of chakra from all the Tailed Beasts, absorbed a titanic amount of natural energy to empower himself and managed to match the power of Sasuke's strongest attack. Which Sasuke used the power of all nine Tailed Beasts to enhance. Now had Naruto been at full power to begin with, and really wanted to kill Sasuke, he would have destroyed him easily. There is no way they're equals, even Sasuke said that Naruto was the winner. Naruto is no doubt, stronger than Sasuke overall.

I think MS sasuke vs SM naruto would've been the better thread, would yield interesting replies lol

In base form? Define base form? Do you mean Sasuke with or without Sharingan? Naruto with or without his Uzumaki clan's chakra and life-force? Cause if you mean both of them using their own power without any external power-ups. Then Naruto wins, cause Sage Mode Naruto > Mangeyko Sharingan Sasuke.
