The decisive battle was just around the corner.
Although the fact that Uchiha Madara and Uchiha Obito still hadn't shown themselves made Naruto feel a little uneasy, he had always planned his strategies with himself at the center. He wasn't the same person who'd needed to tread carefully a few years ago. Now that he had the strongest individual strength in the world and powerful allies at his side, he could sweep aside any opposition by force!
Uchiha Madara had lost his Rinnegan, had no way to truly revive, and could never again become the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki. What did Naruto have to fear? Madara was only a Super Kage Level fighter, barely touching the Six Paths Level. Naruto could already face him head-on, all by himself. Once his Sage Nine-Tails Chakra Mode was fully realized, he could easily defeat the reanimated Uchiha Madara with one hand. Strength, luck, and circumstances were all under his control.
The chance of Kaguya Otsutsuki being revived was already infinitesimally close to zero.
All he had to do was follow his own pace.
The Three Great Shinobi Villages gathering together was the perfect opportunity.
He could wipe out the Shinobi Allied Forces all at once.
After that, he would simply keep pushing forward.
Naruto didn't need to concern himself with whatever schemes and plans Uchiha Madara had.
As long as the Rinnegan remained under his control, Uchiha Madara would have to follow his lead!

As Konan and Karin each left to carry out Naruto's orders,
Naruto stood at the highest point along the shore. His gaze grew distant as he spoke
