I'm with Ultimadude on the Chibaku Tensei strategy. Nagato, down on his chakra and exhaused, could Chibaku Tensei Kurama with great effort. Sasuke did the same with a quick Rinnegan Glance and a handsign, then CT'd all nine beasts simultaneously, then went on and battled Naruto pre-Sage Mode while maintaining Chibaku Tensei.

Madara's use of Chibaku Tensei as a meteor strike shows just how accessible and easy the technique is to a Rinnegan owner. Sasuke can focus all his power into a single Chibaku Tensei, making it however bit it needs to be to seal Hashirama. Nagato's CT wasn't at it's limit. Sasuke's CT wasn't taxing him.
