Even while not tapping into Kurama's chakra, he can make, throw and guide Rasenshuriken's with one hand at an incredible speed (speed of which not many can even react to). He can make four shadow clones (which would not tax him at all) for each of the Kage, and that would be enough. Naruto's array of jutsu and deception/overwhelm tactics would be too much for any of the new Kage (excluding Gaara) to defend against. Not to mention that all except Gaara are CQC types, which Naruto absolutely excels at.

In the Boruto manga, we saw that Momoshiki took out the other four Kage so fast they could not even react, again with the exception of Gaara, but was nevertheless taken down in mere seconds. While Naruto (in base) exchanged and dodged a few blows with Momoshiki. From this, we can deduce that Naruto, even in base form is much faster than any of the Kage, and that his combat tactics far outclass any of them (i.e. Neji fight, Pain fight, etc.).

We also saw in the Boruto Movie, his base Rasengan was strong enough to destroy the Shinju tree's trunk, and carve out a vast swath of land before ricocheting and exploding.

The real challenge here is Gaara, but even he too would be overwhelmed by Naruto jutsu and deception tactics. Even without Kurama's chakra, Naruto possesses far more chakra than the four Kage combined. Agree, also he just with 3 other clones can make the red hokage barrier and put the gokages into it faster than they can react, than he with 2k clones (he can porbably can do 2M clones now because when he did 2k he was only 12-13 yrs old, while now he is hokage and has at least 10 times much chakra than teen Naruto) can come from upside with big ball rasenshurikens (even gaara's sand shield can't do anything, because a massive rasengan was able to destroy shinju, imagine big ball rasenshurikens what damage can they create with wind blades which can cut almost everything)
