And you haven't answered my question, where's the evidence that Sasuke doesn't have vast chakra anymore? Like i said, it's a fairly irrelevant discussion as it's more of a technicality. As to not having vast amounts of chakra, his chakra levels are still considerable. But as i said, chakra gifts have always been temporary, they have always run out. Logic therefore dictates that the chakra given by Hagoromo is gone and so his reserves have reverted to his own. And those reserves were never small, even though compared to the likes of Naruto they may have seemed so. That's not factoring in that he has Hashirama's cells, Indra Transmigrants having considerable reserves themselves, and that his reserves will grow since by their definition any form of training (mentally and physically) will make them grow, and his journey of self-discovery would thus increase them. Considering the Boruto movie, it's probable that his reserves rival that of his Hagoromo-empowered self. Which makes it even more of a technicality than it already was.

Yet the rules are clear on the case: Any chakra gift is temporary, even gifts from Biju who already have less strict rules of chakra transfer. Therefore, Hagoromo's gift of chakra is gone. It doesn't mean their powers are gone (they're not), it doesn't mean their reserves are gone. And they technically never got *Hagoromo* chakra since he divided his power and Naruto has no Rinnegan and Sasuke doesn't have SPSM.

I don't really see why people are so against the idea that they can still effectively have their power yet not have his chakra gift. Oh and i'm even ignoring the fact that Naruto doesn't levitate, doesn't use his rejuvenation power, or doesn't use the specific black/gold cloak with black rods and TSB's anymore. Which the above rule of chakra gifts does explain. Which too does not mean that he's permanently lost his power (there's nothing stopping him from re-acquiring that by asking the Biju again).

So in the end, it's clear to me that the rule of chakra gifts is absolute, even Hagoromo can't break it. But as their powers also prove, he very much can work around that rule.
