Obito has been nurturing Sasuke's powers for a while now. He even gave Sasuke Itachi's MS in order for him to unlock EMS. It was said that Sasuke's eyes will surpass Itachi's.

But right now I cannot think of a scenario where Obito would need or want to have Sasuke.

So far he has Collected 7 of 9 TB, summoned the Juubi, and revived Madara(although incorrectly). His plans are going well.
Why does he need Sasuke at all?
Not to mention that as far as we know, Obito doesn't know what Sasuke is doing.

Food for thought.

_________________________________________________________________________________________

From what people have said what we have so far is:

-Plot Hole
-Match Naruto
-Unknown
-Rinne Tensei
-Gedo Mazo
-Replace Madara
-Jinchuuriki of Juubi

My response:

Plot Hole
It's possible, can't really say anything else.

Unknown
Works

Match Naruto
I thought about this before. Wouldn't Madara and/or the Juubi be enough? Some may dispute whether or not Madara can defeat Naruto, but right now, Madara is only countered by sealing which Naruto does not possess. The Juubi's superiority over Naruto cannot be disputed.

Rinne Tensei
This looks like a good one. Obito mentioned that he would have to throw his life away in order to revive Madara. Perhaps he plans for Sasuke to somehow achieve the Rinnegan and use Rinne Tensei on Madara.

Gedo Mazo
Obito already controls it and has turned? it into the Juubi.

Replace Madara
How would Obito "replace" Madara with Sasuke? Madara is probably the strongest ninja other than Naruto right now. After all, the Moon Eye plan is Madara's plan, Obito is his accomplice.

Jinchuuriki of Juubi
Obito wouldn't give the Juubi to Sasuke. Why would he ever want Sasuke to be that strong. Madara wants to be its Jinchuuriki and he is discussed above.

Soldier in the War
100% Plausible. I forget sometimes that Kabuto was unexpected. The strange thing is that he never sent Sasuke into the war. Even though he had Kabuto's edos maximal force would still be preferred. If Sasuke's purpose was to be a foot soldier Obito would've sent him into battle.

Its not a mystery at all sasuke is an uchiha who is very similar to nagato as his hatred is being manipulated.Anyway sasuke is a uchiha which means he has the potential to get the rinnegan and control the mazou if need be.I think he was gonna use him to perform rinne tensei if it called for it.

Maybe to use him against Naruto.. Give also thought as to what Obito would say or do if Sasuke decided to show up on the battle field, with or without Orochimaru..
Sasuke is also an Uchiha, like Obito; and he is very much able to earn the Rinnegan(I really hope to god Kishi doesn't give him this next). Though.. If Obito has some sort of background plan; he wouldn't exactly need Sasuke if Madara is there..

Madara being summoned through edo as witnesses by last chapter is a huge problem making all his other efforts futile.
I highly doubt obito plans to sacrifice himself.Think about it back when he had sasuke in his hideout along with the rest of taka he mentioned using sasuke for gedo mazou now why would he need him ? If he planned to use himself as a sacrifice sasuke would not fit in the picture whatsoever.I am almost 100 percent sure that he intended to use sasuke to obtain the moons eye plan on his own.

I kinda think that he was meant to get EMS then be given Senju dna so he could be a replacement for Madara, since he was kinda uneasy when madara arrived
exactly obito never intended to bring him back.Sure the zetsu were watching over him but what could they really do once he decided he no longer needed them ?
