I think that Naruto and Sasuke took Hagoromo's distinct powers (His "body," meaning Ten-Tails chakra; and his "eyes," the Rinnegan, respectively) and have taken it to the next level. Think about it, Hagoromo was never able (or at least, never seen) to individually use all nine-tailed beasts powers while they were all the Ten-Tails chakra within him, like Naruto has. And Sasuke, now that his Rinnegan is proven to be red, possesses the eye of the two beings more powerful than Hagoromo, which are Kaguya and the Shinju (before its fruit was taken). And, unlike Madara, Sasuke can use the EMS and Rinnegan simultaneously, instead of having to go through switching through the both of them.

Wow, so naruto and sasuke gain a power that the sage himself couldn't obtain.

I realize everyone is entitled to be stupid but you are abusing the privilege

Firstly, they are using the sage's power so no they haven't surpassed him

Secondly, the 9 tailed beast were formed by the sage himself on his death bed, so he never had any beast inside him except the Shinju and thus couldn't have used any of their individual abilities, Naruto on the other hand has the 9 beasts inside him as separate entities and thus is able to make use of their individual abilities

As for the Sasuke part, the sage was the Shinju's host so its safe to assume that he had awakened the third eye, since the sage himself wrote on how to awaken the 3rd eye on the stone tablet- a method thats been used by madara in the previous chapter. So, sasuke's eye is either the shinju's eye or kaguya's.

As for the "sasuke being able to use both eyes at once but madara not being able to same" part- unlike sasuke, Madara actually awakened the rinnegan using his own ingenuity, obtaining Hashirama's DNA, mastering his rival's powers and then awakening the rinnegan, but in Sasuke's case it was a " The Sage pulled it out of his ass" Miracle, so please i think its time people stop comparing the two

My point is naruto and sasuke didn't "take" the sage's power and took it to the the "next level", but rather the powers they are showing right now are the powers of the six paths himself.

Its bad enough they are using ass-pulls to fight with Madara dont make stuff worse by saying Sasuke and Naruto possess power that the six paths didn't possess (or didn't appear to possess)

not all of their power is the sages some of it is just theirs some of it is Indra and Ashura's and then some of it is the sages. so all in all they have the their own power combined with the power of Indra(SASUKE) and Ashura(Naruto) combined with the power the sage gave them. so in the end they have a little more then what the sage gave them
