Orochimaru's been plotting.... and he's been waiting...
Orochimaru's Plot
Alot of people have been questioning how exactly Orochimaru is going to go about getting what we all know he wants. Which is Sasuke's Body:
But then later on in the manga we see him say he is waiting for Sasuke's Wind:
Then
Now in that above scan you see Orochimaru saying that they need to wait for something and we are led to believe he is looking for a time to strike, but later one we see him and his team mow through them:
So then what was he waiting for?
Now Here is where I start to make a little bit of sense.

Orochimaru's Cunning

Kabuto says he sensed a party coming but didnt know it was Orochimaru & gang. It is also safe to say that Orochimaru also sensed Kabuto, but the real question is did he know it was Kabuto the entire time?

Not to mention the fact that he knew Kabuto was under Izanami and would want to keep dabs on him. So it is safe to say that he knew Kabuto was coming... And perhaps that is what he was having them wait for... But wouldn't a weakened Sasuke be the exact thing Orochimaru wants? Not necessarily:

This scan tells us 2 things, one I will cover later but the main thing is that Kabuto and Orochimaru's true goals are to become like the Sage of 6 paths. Remember Kabuto's goals at this time are the same as Orochimaru's, and Orochimaru wants to learn/master all Jutsu, and what better way to do that than to attain the power of the Sage, the Rinnegan. And he cannot do that without the Sharingan, which explains his obsession with Sasuke and his eyes.
So if Orochimaru is after the Rinnegan what does that have to do with Sasuke?

Well Sasuke is being healed with non-other than Hashirama Cells... And we all know that Senju + Uchiha DNA = Rinnegan. But you may say, Sasuke must then reach near death in order to gain the Rinnegan, and so I give you the 2nd thing the prior scan shows us:

Madara see's that he has the Rinnegan and questions Kabuto because he didn't get the Rinnegan until he was old, and since he wasn't revived in his old age he shouldnt have the Rinnegan, he then immediately realizes that Kabuto (And Orochimaru) had discovered the Secrets to his body.
If you still dont grasp it I will explain it this way:
1) Kabuto revived Madara's body.
2) Used the Hashirama DNA at his disposal and implanted it into Madara's Edo Corpse
3) He fulfilled some other requirement unlocking Madara's Rinnegan.
4) He then finished the Edo sealing Madara's soul into the body.
But the main thing here is that nearing death is not necessary.
Orochimaru's Genius
But you must be asking, The stronger Orochimaru makes Sasuke the harder it will be to get his body right? Well what if he can have his cake and eat it too?
He is currently inside of a Zetsu Clone, which gives him the use of Mokuton but also gives him something else that is special:
A Perfect Duplicate! Of anyone he touches. Obito state's that the duplicate is too weak for battle but that is because it is a Clone using a Substitution Jutsu and this is before the White Zetsu Clones are enhanced using Yamato's DNA. It is likely that Orochimaru could find a way around this or at the very least use himself as a test subject to transfer this powers to another subject with out any limitations.
The Perfect Duplication technique of the White Zetsu is so strong that it stays active even after death:
So then the question is how can Orochimaru even know about all of this stuff?

Orochimaru's Sudden Decision
If your still skeptical check this out:
Orochimaru is revived by Sasuke:
Orochimaru blatently states that he has no interest in this war, but says he is still only interested in Sasuke Body. But does not have the power to take it from him (By Force).
He hears Sasuke's Plans and points out that Sasuke is different than he was when he and Obito were manipulating him. And then:
He makes a B-Line straight to Kabuto, taking out some power and information from Obito. He states that "Something feels strange" and there is a symbol above his head signifying he has realized or noticed something. And exactly
afterwards:
The main thing I see in that last scan is "The way you are now, its not bad", at first glance one would think he was talking about Sasuke's attitude. But Sasuke's attitude didnt change. He is still searching for who he feels is responsible for the death of his clan and simply wants to question the Hokage before making a decision. Nothing about Sasuke has really changed, even after speaking to the Kage he hasnt really changed. With that said I believe Orochimaru's statement refers to:
1) He was talking about the Zetsu Clone inside of hmi and realized what he could do with them.
2) He was talking about Sasuke's EMS and realized he was very close to getting the Rinnegan.

Conclusion
I believe Orochimaru still plans on taking Sasuke's body, but instead of taking it by force, he will take it without Sasuke even knowing he has taken it. And that is by using White Zetsu Shapeshifting Technique.
Everything up until this point has been a delicate dance to position himself in a place to be able to get Sasuke's Power.

UPDATE #1
He still does, He still kills people in the name of science and not but 5 minutes ago (Right before he was sealed) he was trying to get Sasuke's Body. Everybody thinks that because he is helping Sasuke that he is suddenly a good guy and has gone back on all the things he has done in the past, do people think he is going to join Sasuke's merry band of misfits?
Now what I am saying is that Orochimaru is a bad guy. He always will be by nature. What we are talking about here is wether or not him getting Sasuke's body will set him up as a FV. And let me reitterate that him getting Sasuke's body will not hurt Sasuke in the slightest, he will merely be using Zetsu's Shapeshifting Technique to become a perfect copy of Sasuke.
Now the logic behind Orochimaru not being a FV (Future Villian) is that if Kishimotto would do this because there would be no way to address what happens and how that situation ends within this arc. So if he does that the manga will have to enter another arc to explain how that situation ends, and since people see this arc as the end of the manga it stands to reason that this cannot happen since Kishi wouldnt leave the manga on cliffhanger (Or would he?).
But my question to people who feel like something like this would make Orochimaru a Future Villian is "When did he stop being a Villian?". If Orochimaru has Sasuke's body he wouldnt do anything with it that he wouldnt already do with his body. His experiments will still continue, his motives will remain unchanged. So him recieving a power up like this only perpetuates the idea that he is a villian but the fact that he is a villian still wouldnt have changed.
And the question being begged, in regards to Orochimaru's next venture, would be begged regardless of whether he got Sasuke's body or not. And so the argument that X cannot happen because it will make Y a Future villain is self defeating if Y is already a villian. Which Orochimaru is.
Enjoy the Read!
