Anyway, do not carry yourself away by my Superman/Goku comment, either, I was joking around. Magic: While not so much an actual weakness, Superman's invulnerability offers no protection against magic. The explanation for this is simple; Superman's powers, extraordinary as they are, are the result of natural phenomenon, not supernatural. As a result, spells cast on Superman affect him the same as they would anyone else. This sometimes goes so far as enchanted weapons being able to subvert his invulnerability as well. Generally, he suffers the vulnerability provided he is directly attacked with magic. But there exists a number of exceptions, such as in Justice League of America (volume 1) #49 (November 1966), where Superman faces an ogre. Superman's direct attacks have no effect on the ogre, however Superman is able to harm the ogre through the usage of a stick.

so in reality if Superman were to do battle with anyone in Naruto he would not be protected against there attacks. because there attacks are supernatural in origin the elements they use on him would harm him the techniques they use on him would harm him for instance naruto's Rasenshuuriken would harm superman the same way it does to everyone else as in it would cut him up on a molecular level

also might add that goku can be killed by magma and not once in the entirety of DBZ manga has goku destroyed a planet

You are saying this so matter-of-factually. You are still making assumptive parallels. Actually I don't believe chakra and jutsu count as magic. Magic is the manipulation of supernatural energies to create a desired effect. However chakra, chi, ki, mana, or whatever you want to call it all either come from the user's own energy or the energy around them (like with senjutsu) making it would most likely to be classified as a form of natural energy. Therefore within Superman's range of invulnerability, this is why I believe Superman would beat Goku in a fight. While Goku certainly is powerful, because he uses natural energy in his attacks none of them would really effect Superman. Plus though chakra can be used to achieve very similar results as magic it has more restrictions; for example magic can make solid objects that will exist unless someone destroys it, where as objects made from jutsu usually need to be continuously fueled by chakra to remain functioning.
