[Two years. That's how long it's been since Sasuke left the village for the second time. He can't force the other to come back to stay - that's impossible. Sasuke is just as stubborn as he is which is exactly why the two of them fought until limbs were lost. But they've learned to bend just a little.
Now he has to achieve that again. He knows he can and that he will - even if it costs him a second limb. Naruto meant what he said all of those years ago about dying with the other. Many times over if necessary. This time around it's a different sort of determination. It isn't the desperate thing it once was. It isn't for himself or Sakura or anyone else. This time it's solely for Sasuke. To make him see what was always right in front of him, to prove that he isn't alone.
There is definitely something very not right. His right arm contains a mix of his and the Kyuubi's chakra but it's different. It might even remind Sasuke of another Uchiha he had an encounter with recently.
Naruto remembers how violent it was to have chidori and rasengan clash, so he's going to attempt to avoid that if he can. Instead he'll let Sasuke come at him and block the next blow, only to follow it with one of his own.]

I didn't get a choice either way!
