The final rasengan that clashes with Sasuke's blaze chidori? That Sasuke himself states that he can't drain from Naruto while releasing his technique because they're complete opposite abilities ?

Or is it Naruto's failed rasengan prior to that which Sasuke can't absorb because he doesn't have enough chakra to maintain Rinnegan?

And it wouldn't make sense - we see Sasuke use Deva Path and Amenotejikara while inside his Susanoo, both Rinnegan abilities and we later see him use Preta Path to absorb Naruto's chakra. And he says, or rather thinks, that he can't absorb Naruto's final rasengan while releasing his own technique. In the anime, that line is given to Kurama, meaning that yes, Sasuke can absorb jutsu but that he didn't have the capacity to do so with the Choodama Rasenshuriken (yes, that's how it is apparently called). So, logic dictates that if TB Susanoo-enhanced Sasuke who has been shown to use Rinnegan techniques WITHIN the Susanoo (Amenotejikara, Chibaku Tensei, etc.) couldn't absorb the Choodama Rasenshuriken, then neither can Obito.
