Even without Kurama or Six Paths, Naruto is easily the strongest Kage of the current era.Gaara has nothing on him. And to be honest, except for Hashirama, Naruto probably beats anyone on the list, including Minato. Naruto's rasengan killed God. And while i do know that Naruto has SP chakra, he was still weakened as hell when he created that rasengan, not to mention he had couple rinnegan rods stuck in his body and was in base.

Even if you take SP powers and bijuu powers away, at the end of the day Naruto is still a master Sage, still has mountain busting jutsu, still has 1000 shadow clones at least.

Also considering that Hashirama is not allowed to use SM in this battle, Naruto could even beat him.
