PLEASE READ COMPLETELY, IT'S NOT EVEN LONG!
As you can clearly read in the following panel, Shikaku wants shinobi who excel in taijutsu to fight Madara as "only physical attacks work".
Coincidentally in the same manga issue, we see, for the first time in a very long one, Neji Hyuuga and Rock Lee in the cover.
Who else that is currently in the Shinobi Allied Forces would fit best to do this job?
-Might Guy is out of the question as he is currently recuperating and exhausted.
-Naruto is shown heading towards Obito; and, if Shikaku wanted him, he would have told him.
-The Kages, if somehow alive thanks to Tsunade, would be in no condition to fight against the same person who almost killed them earlier in the Manga: all 5 of them.
Rock Lee could fit as Might Guy is already a major part of this battle and they share a similar fighting style.
Neji Hyuuga is part of this team, a genius, and has one of the best taijutsu skillset in the whole Narutoverse: the Jyuuken!
NOTE: We also see Sakura and Gaara in the cover. I believe Sakura could also take part in the taijutsu strategy but the main assets would be Lee and Neji. Gaara could come back [soon future] and help with the "5 minute jutsu" the alliance needs for Obito.
What do you guys think?
