I'm sure that there have been quite a few theories on who will be the next Sage of the 6th Paths. As it stands right now, it's looking like Obito might be it. However, I have a theory on how Naruto could become the true incarnation and possibly how the original Sage of the 6th Paths might be introduced into the battle. I'm going to keep this pretty short and simple.
First, let's look at the following panel:
Here we see what the Juubi sees- the Bijuus' chakra inside of Naruto. Now this can be open to interpretation, but it is safe to assume that the Juubi went on a rampage because he feared that the So6P had reappeared to seal it away again. We all know what happens from there. Obito becomes the Jinchuuriki of the Juubi.
Now, let's take a look at that panel:
It's clear that the Juubi, which consists of seven of the original Bijuus and some of Kurama's and Gyuuki's chakra, is being absorbed by Obito. This absorption of the Bijuus gave us what Naruto and the others are currently fighting. Obito as a pseudo-Sage.
Where does that leave Naruto then? Does he have any hope of beating Juubito and will the original So6P make an appearance? My theory is that the answer to these is yes.
People have stated/theorized that Naruto and Obito are two sides of the same coin. Obito is what Naruto could have been if he had given into darkness and vice versa. They are yin and yang to one another. Couldn't this also apply to being the new incarnation of the Sage of the 6th Paths? Naruto has already received chakra from the seven Bijuu. If he could receive some from Gyuuki as well, and get the other half of Kurama's chakra from Minato, then it is feasible for there to be another version of the Juubi created. Perhaps it would be one that possessed the consciousnesses of the nine Bijuu instead of just one consciousness, but that's a thought for another thread. The point here is that Obito would be the dark incarnation and Naruto the light.
If this were to happen then the original So6P could possibly appear inside of Naruto's subconscious. It could be a situation similar to how Minato appeared there during the Pain arc when Naruto was about to release the seal. Naruto would be able to find out more about the past, have some key questions answered, and learn how to lead the Bijuus down the right path that the So6P mentioned when he split them into nine. This knowledge would in turn make Naruto the true reincarnation of the Sage of the 6th Paths.
