(in the sense of: if two people are very tired, is the one with more chakra gonna last longer aka stay awake longer?) Chakra is partially made from physical energy so being low on chakra means being low on physical energy. As for Itachi even with his lower chakra reserves his techniques were stronger than Sasuke's. If Orochimaru wasmt part of the equasion he would have killed Sasuke (if that were his goal)
