I, first, draw attention to the emblem illustrated on the Seal placed above Obito's heart.
Those are concentric circles devoid of tomoe. That is not a spiral.
That is indicative of Sage of Six Paths. The seal Madara used has origins in the Sage of Six Paths.
Let us continue:

The fruit has bloomed before - it is tradition for humans to leave it.
Yet they had no problems with this Ototsuki character showing up and eating it.
She consumed the fruit in order to put an end to conflict and war, and she birthed a son (later revealed to be two) and raised him (them) to young adulthood.

... Does anyone else get the impression we are being deprived of some very important information, here?
Does anyone wonder what Hagoromo's childhood was like - what, with having his all-powerful mother hell-bent on sucking the life out of him? He had to be a bad-ass right out of the womb just to stay alive.
Or... Kaguya had some kind of a mental breakdown.
Let's compile these known things into a guess at what it is we are missing:
The fruit has bloomed in the past. Kaguya Ototsuki - with powers unseen by any of the normal people duking it out with spears - shows up and eats the fruit. She stops wars and has two children whom she raises (... one can only assume that it takes two for her to tango, as well - so there's that loose end floating around out there). This is not the image of a sociopath. An autocrat - maybe. A sociopath... no.
But, then the tree goes ape-shit and spawns the Juubi to hunt down its lost chakra (probably because it can sense it). Hagoromo and Homura battle and seal the Juubi to 'repent for their mother's sins.'
Reading between the lines - we get that it was a sin for her to consume the fruit and remain to dabble in human affairs. It was her love for humans that prompted her to seek and use power in a manner that would ultimately bring further chaos and destruction.
Seeing this, Hagoromo decided to intervene - placing a seal upon Kaguya's heart, preventing her from loving the world so that she could move on to where she belonged.
While that may have prevented her from loving - it did not necessarily get rid of the objectives that she had set for herself, or get rid of her desire to remain in worldly affairs. Hence the obsession with power and becoming the spitting image of a sociopath.
Which is where we enter part II.
Where is Kaguya's heart?
This theory contacts, somewhat, with my theory that Orochimaru was never a 'bad guy' and was working with Itachi and Danzo throughout the entire series (even the sand attack was an intentional plot by Danzo to trigger a war before the Sand had truly recovered economically while also setting them up to be agreeable to trade and military alliances). Though this supposition isn't necessary for the theory to work - it just paints a more dynamic and interesting picture of the whole works.
First - we entertain the idea that this man knows a hell of a lot more than we realize:

Kabuto, the right hand of Orochimaru, just shows up in the middle of killing Leaf Anbu to heal a Hyuuga kid. And... what - were the Leaf medical corps incompetent, or something? Just what was her injury and what was it Kabuto did, there?
. . . Or was it an injury in the typical sense?

It's implied the wound is near the heart - though that is not specifically shown (and therefor the scene may be an over-reach on my part, I acknowledged this possibility).
However - this rings similar of:

The heart's chakra has been 'pierced.'
The heart's flesh has been 'pierced.'

And the heart's soul has been 'pierced.'
Jing, Qi, and Shen have been freed of their bonds.
Am I 'reaching' on this one?
Oh, hell yes. I realize that this one left the limb behind and has walked out into orbit. But that's where I'm at home theorizing - when, by time my theories can be evaluated, everyone has forgotten they existed to being with (both to cheer and jeer).
