@RandomAir BGM Yes Naruto and Sasuke fought a weaker Ten Tails but it's still a Ten Tails, and this was when they were 17.

I didn't forget to mention that Hagoromo was the first Jinjuuriki of the Ten Tails. It wasn't relevant, since he fought Kaguya before he was Jinjuuriki so his feats with the Ten Tails are irrelevant.

If they can fight any sort of Ten Tails together (and for portions of the fight it was only them fighting) and overpower its constructs, that means they aren't ridiculously weaker than Hagoromo. They most certainly are weaker and if they fought Hagoromo at that time they'd definitely lose, but they were at a point in their abilities where they could actually fight him.

"Fought" is an overstatement. He couldn't trade blows with Juubito like Naruto and Sasuke were doing.

Hashirama was pinned down, Tobirama was pinned down, I don't know if Hiruzen had regenerated yet but he was also occupied with Tobi, Minato had no arms. and had teleported away by that time. So no, he ran from Naruto and Sasuke, since Sakura showed that she couldn't do anything to him due to Limbo and Kakashi simply didn't have the firepower to pose a threat to a Ten Tails Jinjuuriki.
