I see this coming, sooner rather than later. I think besides becoming Hokage, Sasuke has his own goals. Remember the first line we got out of him. He plans to restore his clan. To Sasuke his clan is everything, his family is everything. I don't think what he read on the Stone Tablet put his mind at ease. Hashirama is a pathetic hypocrite to someone like Sasuke. His words were wasted.
In the end Sasuke wants to kill Madara and Obito for betraying his clan. Obito killed many of his clansmen. Madara betrayed the clan with the curse of hatred. It caused Itachi's suffering and his own. In the end, Sasuke does not give a shit about saving the world. He will kill the TBs, kill Kurama and probably still intends to kill Naruto.
The Sage is complicit in this. We know he's watched his own sons fight across the aeons. At very least the Sage = Jesus motif is 100% out the window. No benevolent force watches its own family fight for that long. We have to, as fans, except that at very least the Sage is morally ambiguous. And that Sasuke has his own agenda.
One far different from Naruto and his stupid little friends.
