Kishimoto has been foreshadowing and alluding to this for way too long. I don't think that he can just throw it away. At this point though I doubt that it would be a fight as "enemies" but a fight as "friends but intense rivals", to see which one is really superior. I think they both would want to know who is stronger between them, and I don't think they would be all that mad at this point if the other won. Not nearly mad as earlier in the series at least.
