No , it wasn't plot shielded . Naruto won fair and square . He summoned Gamabunta and owned Gaara with him . As for Bijuu Dama part , I think Shukaku is the weakest of all Bijuus , that's a possibily reason .

It was plot shield.

shukaku didnt have control of gaara long enough to gather all of his power. that and the bijuu's lore was barely developed in part 1 hence why gaara is the old one with a chakra cloak U_U

The most logical reason I can think of is that at that point in the manga Kishi did not "invented" bijuu dama yet

The 1-tailed blows so that may be why

I think he could've used a TBB.. if I remember correctly Gambunta did say that the longer the fight lasted the stronger Shukaku would get so I believe that is why he couldn't use TBB just yet because he wasn't at full power. Naruto punched Gaara awake before Shukaku unleashed his full potential.

Shukaku wasn't at full power so it couldn't use Bijuu Dama. No plot shield involved at all.

The problem was they made Shukaku weaker than shit. Gaara was arguably better off without getting taken over by it and sticking to his own powerful sand techs.

Well, 50% Naruto isn't at full power either when you think about it. But I guess it's because Kurama is so superior to Shukaku.

@Bold, opinionated and that's generalizing the entire Base off of your speculation, Lol.

And I'm pretty sure Orochimaru won that fight..?

Oro won the fight with 3rd lost the battle of the village
