My point was that if Sasuke fights Naruto in his current state of the mind and no 3rd party interferes with the fight by revealing information about the Uchiha/Tobi/Itachi then it seems impossible for Naruto to do anything else than killing Sasuke. Of course it could be that Naruto makes some magic talk like in the case of Nagato, however in this case such a magic talk would be extremly lame, in case of Nagato it was somewhat ok, but not here. So either the lame Naruto-magic-talk or there's some other influence on Sasuke that helps Naruto's words and actions work on Sasuke. I prefer the latter, even if it means a brief meeting with Itachi,

and i say brief because any longer contact would obviously become something lame.

I think it wouldn't be too much, if everything bad is undone in the end, furthermore it's undone by Sasuke himself. This manga often explores the extreme of human behavior, and gets away with it. Take for example Gaara, who was a psycho child murderer, he killed the kids of his own village who would not play with him. Now he is one of the great heroes and the young ninja of his village love him, they completely forgot what happened in the past. The actions of his father and the older generation were blamed, he was redeemed.

I think it has much less chance if they cannot fight, because if they attack him then Sasuke not killing them seems a very stupid plot. They have orders to attack him, as an akatsuki member, he killed samurai guys who attacked him, he said he won't go around killing konoha ninja, but if they attack him he should fight back as a villain has to, that is kill them. So i think Kishimoto will avoid such stupid situations if it cannot be undone. And i think there are ways to undo deaths, for right now Tobi is cornered, what if he uses the chakra he gathered from kyuubi and 8-tails and the other 7 to make a small version of infinite tsukiyomi which affects only the battlefield. He would de that not only to capture Naruto but if Kabuto makes a move on Sasuke he would also do it to avoid Kabuto capturing Sasuke, in that case Sasuke and his opponents would be trapped in a genjutsu and all the killings Sasuke did could turn out to be illusions. So there you have Sasuke killing people like Hinata without any real consequences.
