Now, as some of you may already know (at least those who aren't in denial) Obito is literally NaruSaku's last chance of becoming end game by the manga's end. In no means am I a person who likes to brag, but I do consider myself a pretty smart guy and I can tell when someone, like an author (namely Kishi), is trying to tell the reader something. In the past 3 chapters or so, Kishi has portrayed Sakura worrying about the ultimate fate of Obito multiple times. The obvious two being: when Sakura came to the conclusion that Obito is beyond saving after he volunteered to bring Sasuke back and she became somewhat sad because of it; and when Obito sacrificed himself as a human shield to protect Naruto from Kaguya's onslaught and Sakura can be seen with a worried look rather than a surprised look that everyone else had.
Now, this is where Obito becomes NaruSaku's last chance: before he dies, he COULD say to Sakura - "Take care of Naruto" or something around those lines. Or he COULD say that she reminds him of Rin. But the odds are yet again stacked against us. Every-time Kaguya is shown destroying one of Naruto's clones with her bone ash technique, the clone disintegrates rather quickly. Will this be enough time for Obito to say his final farewells to Sakura? In my opinion, based on the techniques fast proficiency showcased multiple times in the past, it shouldn't be enough time. But there is another small glimmer of hope, and that is: every-time Kishi has killed off a character or is about to kill them off, he often reveals their past and portrays how far it has contrasted to their present self. So this COULD provide Obito enough time to pull NaruSaku back from the brink, but as I have said, its a miniscule chance and everything is riding on him.
