I also don't see why Sasuke wouldn't be rusty either, considering all he has done is traveled the world and followed Kaguya's footsteps. We also don't know when Naruto became Hokage, but based on the ending of The Last, it seems like it wasn't all that long ago, and that he's only been it for a few years. So him becoming so "rusty" in a few years to the point that he is even weaker than he was in the war, even though he has all of Kurama now, and is even capable of using Rasenshuriken with one hand in his base, as well as being able to use Chakra Enhanced Strength with his mastery over Kurama's chakra and even project Kurama outside of his body while simultaneously using NTCM in conjunction with SM, is ridiculous and makes no sense at all. I agree it doesn't make sense but just because it doesn't make sense doesn't mean it's not true yes Naruto has become rusty, but it was never directly stated or shown that Sasuke has grown rusty and there's no evidence to support Sasuke being rusty outside of one moment. but the reason he wasn't able to use susanoo to block the shuriken was because he ocular powers were drained this was shown with him stating his ocular powers were temporarily weakened. when did I say he was weaker now than he was back in the war I said he was rusty but it is more likely that he has only gotten rusty after the deal with Toneri. if Naruto wasn't rusty he would have been able to handle the Shin clones without needing shadow clones or nine tails chakra
