You underestimate Naruto. It's pretty obvious at this point Naruto eats Nagato for breakfast, lol maybe not all of that but Naruto has surpassed him.
Naruto uses taijutsu or uses Kurama who's sheer size could crush Nagato and your forgetting about Naruto's strength in BM he was capable of deflecting TBB's and even pushing one into a barrier while he was in KM. We dont know what Nagato's Gedo Mazo can do.
If he uses Taijutsu, then Nagato uses Asura Path, and Preta Path to rip him of his cloak. Gedo Mazo takes care of any clones that Naruto makes.
Preta path cant absorb Kurama though who is a living creature not chakra. So Kurama can stick his claw though Nagato. Naruto now that his mized his chakra with Kurama's now it's almost limitless so Naruto can spam clones unlike Nagato who cant spam Shinra sure he can spam the mini one thoough.......but Base Naruto's clones were able to withstand by holding on to each other so im positive BM or even KM for that matter can withstand it.
Naruto's Bijuu Mode doesn't make him turn into Kurama, that is simply a chakra cloak in the form of Kurama, so yes it can get absorbed, Wood Dragon already ripped Naruto of his Kurama cloak so I don't know why you are denying the possibility of itbeing absorbed.
Healthy Nagato's Shinra Tensei>>>>>>>>>Weakened Deva Path's Shinra Tensei. Those Base clones barely withstood that, Nagato's would send them flying, the only Naruto who has a slight chance of tanking S/T is Full Kurama BM Naruto, no Km or Human BM is taking that on. The clones even used a Human Chain, 1 KM Naruto or 1 BM Naruto can't replicate that effect.
Naruto can't spam clones in BM, why do you think Kurama told him that its okay to use Shadow Clones since he made him wait a lot? If he spams clones, he uses the up the BM Chakra that Kurama makes for him, and his BM only lasts for 8 minutes.

Nagato also hasn't shown any speed feats so if Nagato starts using Preta Path Naruto can blitz him and than kill him with a Kurama claw or with his strength.
Again, his whole cloak is made of chakra, if he tries to touch Nagato Preta Path will absorb his chakra.
Are you kidding me six tails narutos can take on a shine tensei it could take out a couple of clones but not all especially if there BM clones
That was a Shinra Tensei from a weakened Deva Path, this is Nagato's Shinra Tensei. Don't compare the two.

Not to mention BM Clones can't use the Kurama cloak, so they aren't tanking Shinra Tensei. The Human chain tactic used against Pain is not viable since he can't spam clones in BM.
