IMO
In chapter 700, KISHI made her and Boruto intentionally resembling their fathers only in order to create some lame suspense in the last chapter about which the final couples are... I also think he intentionally add the glasses on Sarada to feed the theories about SasuKari. Still lame.
To me, it's utterly obvious he did that. Sarada have nothing from Sakura at first glance. The eyes are black like Sasuke's, the hair are black like Sasuke's, the glasses are the same shape as Karin's. The only thing she has from Sakura are her clothes. This is what you get from her at first glance.
IMO all this was to feed the fans theories, and to create some red herring because it's so hype right now apparently... I like red herring, but this is 'playing with readers feelings'. This is not a red herring. But it's possible he's not the one responsible for this. It's possible he's only doing what he was told to do...
I still think he was forced to end NaruSaku, and that he had no more real ideas left about his story, and that he's doing whatever comes into his mind because it's his duty to draw this manga. I think that he lost his devotion to it because of the pressure, and because he was ripped of all of his original ideas and expectations for his story.
So... Sarada... in this chapter, I thought about Sakura while looking at her. Kishi drew Sakura's expression on her face. I get it that some of you guys don't see it, but I maintain it, Kishi gave her Sakura's face expressions. I think Kishi is trying to show to the readers that Sakura is really her mother right now. I don't know what he really is thinking, but to me, it's either he's mocking us, or either he's trying to tell us something. And I don't think Kishimoto is the type to mock his readers. At all. He's not perfect for sure, but I don't think he's that kind of man. I think he's either trying to rehabilitate his manga, or either he's trying to tell us something, or either he's trying hard to make the story they forced him to write to be interesting... something like that.
Sarada is behaving like Sakura here. To me, it's clear that's Kishimoto's intention. He wants us to see Sarada is behaving like Sakura. He even made Naruto say it. So, Sarada is like Sakura. Even if we find it not well done, it's what Kishi intended to do. It's strongly shown when she interacts with Naruto. As if it was natural because it's Naruto. Naruto always brought Sakura to life right ? Don't you see it guys ? That's the more natural thing Kishimoto was able to draw since that gaiden began. Why is that small interaction between Naruto and Sarada feels so natural ? And Naruto, just look at him, smiling brightly while talking to Sarada about Sakura... LOL
To me, Kishi is showing his real colors here. What is natural to write for him is that. And to me it's NaruSaku all over.
And Sasuke raising his sword at his daughter... SasuSaku fans must be really angry right now. All this is because Kishi has no idea at all. It's just phony and lame events. He just can't draw Sasuke behave differently because that's the way Sasuke is. LOL
But what I see here is that Naruto gave to Sarada the feeling of what could be a father for the first time in her life. I think that's the reason she was able to activate her Sharingan. This was the trigger to her thinking about what could be her bond with Sasuke, her father. Naruto was the trigger. Naruto is behaving with her like he did with Sakura. He's comforting her because he knows how she feels. He waited for her because he knew she was following him with Chouchou (chouchou means butterfly in japanese), and he knew why. He's still that utterly intelligent guy when it comes to feelings, and all he's doing right now is an act to comfort Sarada. I get the feeling he lied about his past in that purpose too. To make her smile.
It's like he's making the PoaL again to Sarada. Him telling her to not worry, and that he will help her meet her dad... It's again about 'bringing back Sasuke'. LOL
Don't you see it guys ?
