Sure he used his powers but to counter. He never targeted Sasuke with an attack like IA, it was Sasuke who launched the attack and Naruto countered. Sasuke on the other hand tried to attack Naruto directly everytime.
That means nothing.
The time in which he trows his jutsus does not change how strong they are. If he could have overpowered Sasuke's abilities by 1% in order to gain the edge, he
would have and he
should have.
If Naruto was as capable as you and the rest of the Naruto fandom believe, then he could have pushed it 1% further, kept Sasuke in his exhausted condition and knocked him out without either of them losing a limb.
But we both know that instead of winning without major loss of ability and constitution, Naruto stalemated every time, which caused them both to be in
CRITICAL condition, and on the verge of death, with mortal and extreme wounds.
So either you think Naruto's dumb enough to put both of them at a 99% mortality rate for no reason, or you think that Naruto wasn't strong enough to handle Sasuke without taking equal damage and nearly dying in the process.
So which is it?
But he didn't use frog kumite. he didn't want to kill Sasuke. Screw the fact that he pulled out his strongest move, the fact he didn't use weaker move x,y and z proves that he was holding back. /s
Don't know why they're mentioning shit like bijuu rasenshuriken when Naruto already used his strongest technique. You can say he didn't go all out in the beginning and neither did Sasuke because he got 100% serious when he got the bijuus to finish off Naruto.
Sasuke didn't pull out his Sharingan Triple Windmill attack. GG. Sasuke held back. :sdo:
