They're friends, but the logic and development behind their bond is nonsense. But at least its less nonsense than SasuSaku.

You ever notice the moment Sasuke rejoins the battlefield that they naturally start fighting together? Despite their rocky few years & Unity/Isolation thing, even Sasuke can't help but notice that their teamwork and styles compliment each other perfectly.

Important to note that there's time passing inbetween arcs that we also never seen in the manga. The two had a large impact on each other as academy-age kids. It's the unspoken empathy kind of bond. Even when they were apart inspired the other to keep growing.

They're not friends, Shikamaru is basically the best friend he could ever have. Sasuke and Naruto have been through so much (the end of the world, sacrifices and literal Ootsutsuki reincarnation) that they're basically brothers.

It starts off as a rivalry but it's undeniable that Naruto in it's 15 years of bromance plot earns the Naruto/Sasuke bond.

I don't why there are people defend their sick relationship , yet everyone bash SasuSasuk

Lmao , I dare say that NaruSasu is even worse (well not really , both are garbage )

now if your friend have tried to kill you , would you still consider him as a friend ?

Lmao , I remember in the five Kage summit arc , when Sasuke was about to kill Sakura and Kakashi , and Naruto's reaction was like:
"hi bro , even though you were about to kill my sensei and my friend , and you admitted that you want to kill me and to slaughter everyone in my village , I still love you , and I will die after you "

Sasuke : "and why is that ?"

Part 2 conflicts aside, its been at least fifteen years. The two had a lot of time to rebuild a friendship. With the way they now interact with one another makes me think that they see one another as brothers in all but blood.

Naruto is like a big brother to Sasuke even though Sasuke is older by age.

I don't think its much of an older-younger brother thing for them as it is the general idea of brotherhood.

Though if one of them had to be the younger one, it would still be Naruto because of his "immaturity".

Yeah wanting to destroy an entire village to take revenge or his hokage plan was very mature.

Well, you could make that argument, but Naruto views Sasuke in the same way, and he was portrayed as such throughout a good part of the manga while this was revealed in the third to last chapter.

Sure Naruto considers Sasuke like a brother but what he feels about Sasuke is different than how Sasuke feels about him. Its in the same chapter you mentioned.

technically arent they brothers though? cuz of indra+ashura, they most likely had a sub conscious & conscious bond

I know, but it used to be the whole "catch up to Sasuke" thing, and it remained like that for the longest time. Well, at least for the entirety of Part 1, I think. And some of Part 2 if you think about it.

They're spiritual brothers, I suppose.

That's cuz the manga focused on Naruto's feelings towards Sasuke throughout. Sasuke's real feelings only came into picture after he lost to Naruto at the end. Apart from that how Sasuke felt was rarely explored and he didn't want to acknowledge Naruto before but those feelins were there since the time they started to consider each other as friend.
