Even Itachi with his average level of chakra could use the armored version of Susanoo, which is pretty large in size as well, as seen. MS/Rinnegan abilities, again, are not as chakra taxing as you make them up to be. Also don't be fooled by the size of Sasuke's PS. It's not like in Naruto's case, where he is literally coating himself in Kurama's massive chakra. Compared to Kurama's chakra avatar, The PS is using barely a fraction of chakra.

They made it pretty clear that MS/Rinnegan abilities are about the eye exhaustion, and not as much about chakra. Rinnegan doesn't increase chakra levels, EMS doesn't increase chakra levels. It's all about exhaustion your eyes. Let's take Sasuke's ameno. After about 3 uses of it, Sasuke can't use it for a while. Is is because of chakra? No. It's simply because of the continuous usage of the eyes.

And you bring up Sasuke fighting in the war as a large chakra-pool feat? Lol. Sasuke joined the war after the jiuubi was released. Which was at the beginning of the second night, of the war that lasted 2 days. He even wandered around for a while when he was trapped by Kaguya in the desert dimension. Hell, Kakashi fought from the beginning of the war until the end. I guess Kakashi also has larger chakra than Naruto, right? No.

And you bring up the fact that Sasuke and Naruto were at the same level of exhaustion at VOTE2. Again, makes no sense. First of all, as i mentioned before, Naruto's abilities require way more chakra than Sasuke's. Only one of Naruto's TBB require way more chakra than Sasuke has in total. And Naruto was spamming that during the war. Second of all, Sasuke was drawing chakra from 9 tailed beasts, while Naruto was drawing chakra from one. And you mean to tell me that they were at the same level of exhaustion fairly?

Naruto had a way larger chakra pool than Sasuke to begin with. Than they both receive six paths power, which is arguably if it increased their chakra level at all, since i don't think it was ever confirmed. Than you have the fact that Naruto is a transmigrant of Asura and has the sage's body. While growing in age, their respective chakra pools increased until now, and it was pretty obvious that Naruto's chakra pool increases incredibly fast, since the Last happened only 2 years after the war.

So at what point exactly did Sasuke's chakra become even comparable to Naruto's? Let alone surpass it... I know that you probably want to believe that in base Sasuke has more chakra, since Naruto outshines him by mile by having Kurama, but it's not the case. Even without Kurama, Naruto has way way more chakra than Sasuke. It was never even brought up canonically that Sasuke might have even impressive chakra reserves, and you want to compare him with Naruto... Okay fine, maybe not Sasuke. What about Nagato? Surely he has a bunch of chakra comparable to Naruto's from what we've seen?

It still doesn't change the fact that only a very small number of people (3?) we know of has chakra levels comparable to a Base Hokage Naruto.

That was the point I was originally trying to make, the fact that literally only less than a handful of people had reserves matching or maybe surpassing his in base, because I was attempting to explain how Naruto could outlast them all in a prolonged battle if for whatever reason he can't beat them all.

EDIT: I edited my original post.
