Naruto and Sasuke had both grown up. Indra and Asura's chakra had been attached to them since the day they were born.
Indra and Asura had been entwined through countless generations, but their strongest reincarnations were undoubtedly Madara Uchiha and Hashirama Senju. Without the Sage of Six Paths giving them a boost later on, Naruto and Sasuke's strength had truly been limited.

What they did not know was that Naruto's earliest days had not been so pleasant either. If Orochimaru had not become Hokage, Naruto's childhood would surely have been miserable.
If not for Asura's chakra influencing him, Naruto would definitely
