This is what you've proven to me with this wall of text:
-Sasuke has been canonically shown to be in the village once for a grand total 5 seconds before setting out on his redemption journey again. 13 years have passed in manga time since that moment and Sasuke still hasn't been since in the village. For all we know, he could have never returned.
-Sasuke's words to Sakura weren't "I'll see you soon" but "maybe next time" referring her plea to join him on his journey outside of the village. This only adds weight to the prospect of Sasuke and Sakura meeting up and making love and producing Sarada on their travels. No need for Sasuke to return to Konoha, just Sakura and baby Sarada. Sasuke is free to continue his journey to redeem himself by protecting the shinobi world in the shadows, this includes shinobi from obscure undeveloped territories, alerting Naruto to any potential threats so that he can liase with the other villages and provide them with support. Military or otherwise.
Sasuke decided to protect Konoha on his own whim since Hashirama tnj'd him. He saved Hiashi on a whim, he saved Konoha from being obliterated by a meteor on a whim. He was under no obligation or order to do so. Why is it so hard to believe in the possibility that Sasuke isn't still doing what he thinks is best for the village, under his own terms?
Sasuke being on missions for 10years+ without seeing his family is very relevant. Whilst it is on him on whether he wants a rest or not, it's a tad peculiar that he would "come back to the village yet never visit his family" as you've theorized. Something about that just doesn't add up. Particularly if is redemption journey was "over" as you put it. If that was the case, he'd surely allow himself the right to a family life, wouldn't he?
You've wrote a bunch of fanfiction about how Sasuke came back and impregnated Sakura in the village, before living a regular life as a Konoha shinobi where he comes back to regularly to report for missions but conveniently chooses to ignore his family. Oh and his redemption journey and the Kaguya stuff is over now because Indra said so and he's secretly Kishi. My bad.
I think it is quite hilarious that someone who writes about Sasuke, talks about Sasuke, and defends only Sasuke. You would believe that this person would have a great understanding of Sasuke, but he really does not. You should carefully read the series once again. A large part of Sasuke's characterization was doing everything alone, in fact he deprived on it. The sole reason why VoTE2 was important for Sasuke's character, was that it took Naruto to bring back Sasuke, and change his ideology. The ideology that wanted to kill Naruto, the Kage's, and embark in an world where he would become the one and only villain. Making sure nothing would happen again (Ex - Uchiha massacre), basically becoming a God in a sense. After VoTE2, Naruto's answer to Sasuke once they begin to converse, is that Naruto wants to change the world through cooperation, which is the exact opposite of what Sasuke wanted to do.
Even in Chapter 699 Sasuke bides by those very words today. I don't honestly know how you can skip what he says. It seems that you are trying to hold onto the Sasuke that did everything alone, and through his own way. When that is not the case anymore. Chapter 699 showcases the new, and developed Sasuke that is far from what he was during Chapter 698 and its former.
--------------------------
>You don't understand Sasuke's redemption journey at all. He clearly went out of the village because he went to see the world through his own eyes in a different light, after Naruto knocked him back on his own two feet. Sakura told Sasuke that she also wanted to join him, but he declined. He clearly states that she had no part in his sins, and tells her next time. Meaning that this journey for Sasuke meant biding by those very words he told her -- You honestly know nothing of Sasuke's characterization if you truly believe he would reform from his abstinence and decide to have a child with Sakura, when that's exactly the opposite route Sasuke was taking with his Redemption.
>Sasuke has no journey anymore. Which is why he is only doing mission(s) for his village. There is nothing really else to state there, because the manga backs up my claim. What about yours?
>Sasuke protecting Konohagakure, or saving villagers is nothing short of nothing less you would expect from a Shinobi of Konohagakure. Was he doing any missions while on his redemption journey? No, but did he have enough common sense to come back to his village and protect it? Yes.
>Just beause Sasuke stated this redemption journey on his own was to clear his head, and view the world in a different light. Does not really make Sasuke this stay-at-home dad who spends time with his daughter and wife. Clearly, Sasuke's character was never a loving type in the way SS shippers thought he was. He is basically like Fugaku in that sense. If Sasuke wanted to visit his family, or spend time with his daughter he would have. Though the fact that he didn't, is a negative on his character. You really can't say more on this, because we still don't know why he did it, though judging from the facts ... He probably won't.
I don't really care for what you said at the end. You can't prove me wrong.
