The first is rather easy (he'd be weak and likely dead), the second is an impossible question. Naruto can freely access Kurama's chakra. He doesn't need to release the seal or form Kurama mode or whatever. If he wants to use Kurama's chakra for a Rasenshuriken or whatever, he can instantly tap into that. We don't really know how his Six Paths stuff works, but it's likely that this too is the natural state of his own chakra.

In other words, there is no such things as a "base" Naruto anymore.
