Why was shin wearing an akatsuki cloak? And why did he attack naruto and them?

The point was to develop Sarada's characters. Which backfired badly.

People pointed out that Sarada looked like Karin, and Kishi decided to make a miniseries to crush every SasuKarin shippers dreams.

It was to make a connection between Root and Akatsuki (Shin) with Orochimaru as the Centerpiece.

It's main theme was genetic cloning which is a very strong element in the coming Boruto story (Mitsuki is a Genetic Clone, Kawaki a Naruto/Sasuke hybrid clone ?)
