Spoiler Sasuke Returns to Konoha(?)

[NagatoGod_of_Pain]

...in the sense of finding "them". My guess is that Sasuke, Orochimaru and company will return to Konoha for the Uchiha clan's tablet.

Who wrote that tablet? The Sage of the Six Paths, who should know "everything" seeing as how he basically created the shinobi world. Even though he's one person, the Japanese language has several particulars when referring to an unspecified person. Look back at when Itachi explained how "he" (in truth, Nagato) found Kabuto if you want another example (some translations have an editor's note).

Thus, Sasuke knows "that place very well" and would fulfill his desire of knowing the truth about the past. This in turn would directly give Sasuke the choice of enacting out his revenge or not as he will be in Konoha.

Plus, Karin has been reintroduced several chapters ago in a Konoha jail cell. As Kishi wouldn't do that without reason, she will likely rejoin the rest of Taka.

The tricky part is figuring out the order of which villains go down first. If what I've said pans out, then Obito and/or Madara will be defeated first as their Moon Eye plan is already near completion, an impossibility if Kishi wants to explore Sasuke's new path.

I don't know...depending on translations is iffy.

Karin joining them would seem plausible...if Sasuke hadn't pierced her with Chidori.

Bringing back original sage? Too dangerous. And I don't know what answers would Sasuke get from him.

First Uchiha? Again, for what?

I'm telling you: It is either Shisui or Sasuke parents/every Uchiha clan member who died in massacre. He would know if they really wanted to rebel against Konoha, if there was no other way than home-war.

But knowing what is written on Uchiha Tablet would be cool. But I read somewhere that Orochimaru and Kabuto someway decoded it.

I see no other reason for Kishi to reintroduce her, especially since she's in the process of breaking out of her jail cell.

Not sure on answers? The Sage would be the only guy to literally know everything about the shinobi world. I don't mean Orochimaru to literally bring back the Sage.
The Sage probably wrote some secrets in his one and only tablet for a certain group of people. Sasuke will find out why and what it consists of.

Orochimaru and Kabuto only had a hypothesis on what the tablet contains based on information they gathered around the world. They didn't and can't read it.

I am for the tablet idea.... but I thought you needed the rinneagan?
