I'm sure everyone's aware of how some use this scan to "prove" MS Sasuke was stronger than SM Naruto.
First off, here's the viz scan so you know what was actually said.
"You don't beat Sasuke by being strong. Inside him is....." This, as I've said countless times, was an implication that Naruto was saying that he couldn't defeat Sasuke's ideals with just fighting or what he represents. Lo and behold.... this chapter came out.
So, in other words..... It was never a question of power. He said he can't "beat" Sasuke because of Indra. Most likely, Naruto guessed that Indra would just pick someone else. One could even say that this makes Sage Mode Naruto stronger than MS Sasuke since he had no doubts about beating him.
As for the other example, the one where he said that he needed Kurama to fight him..
This too, is not a valid example as this was clearly Naruto thinking that Sasuke was only going to get stronger. In fact, this was the time when he was getting the surgery for EMS, so it goes to reason Naruto needed the 9 tails to beat what Sasuke was about to become.
So sorry Sasuke fans, but you no longer have a "fact" to hide behind. It's completely debatable. Tell me what you think everyone.
