You know, after you mentioned that, it got me thinking about one of the chapters before Jiraiya had fought Pain. I remember him saying that before the 4th died, he knew of something really important. Thus why he sealed the Kyubi into his son. Perhaps he knew that the Kyubi was controlled again. Who else would know something like that besides the man who fought it head on and sealed it away?

And after Naruto's fight with Sasuke at the Valley of the End, Kakashi had said that their lives are remarkably like Madara's and the 1st's. I really think Sasuke might join Madara's ranks to get revenge for his brother and his clan. And he thinks nothing of the Leaf Village anymore anyway.
