@Thekillman that's your opinion which you are entitled to. And in my opinion they are rivals close in overall strength with naruto being able to win in a fight, even more so as an adult for reasons I have stated countless times.

Chakra absorption is an ability which allows you to STEAL chakra unless someone gives it willingly. It can comprehend how that can be compared to gathering NE which is like the air we breathe is FREELY available to everyone. So we will have to disagree here to.

In the anime version of the battle sasuke told naruto that he only has a small part of the bijus, not that it was vanishing, I still hold to fact that they gave him pieces of themselves, and from the way they have accepted it is never hinted in wise that they will be anything but willing to help him if needs be. Besides considering naruto's power level I highly doubt he will be calling on them often. I don't he has called on them once even though he could.

Sasuke has not shown anything as an adult that leads me to believe that there is and significant difference in his mastery of the rinnegan at vote2 and adulthood. Naruto has full kuruma, there is no biju around for sasuke to steal chakra from, naruto has extensive experience against rinnegan users probably more than any other shinobi. I can't see how sasuke in his current state can stand the slightest chance against naruto.

And sasuke himself has said he was unable to surpass naruto, defeating sasuke does not even seem to be a priority for naruto now in the slightest. yes I know he hokage and busy, but it is as if he already knows that he win.
