My Take on this is simple. We all know kishi will always troll everyone but the real thing remains, that naruto will end up with Hinata. many people didn't want to tobi to be obito even though the names suggested it, i told a lot of people here that the mazo was the ten tail, they didn't believe it too. In the mind of the writer he already has the these things in place he just wants to troll for a while before bringing it out. We are going to have so many people cursing when they finally get together. Even though i still think him being alone serves the best.
I bet you Naruto will die alone if hinata dies in this war.
