So, summary of some key points:


 * Sasuke has been using his Rinnegan to follow the traces of Kaguya in order to determine what threat she was preparing the White Zetsu army for. He presented his initial suspicions to the Gokage and asked that his mission be made top secret, as the thought of something more dangerous than Kaguya still lurking could cause a widespread panic.


 * It appears that Sakura was possibly pregnant at the time of the the meeting.


 * More baby daddy drama with Sarada and Sasuke which doesn't resolve. Sakura is running to the tower.


 * Shin's father is revealed to have several sharingan implanted into his left arm and on his head -- probably actually covering his entire body. He announced the revival of the Akatsuki and calls forth what look like several clones of Shin (six or more), as well as a handful of those small one-eyed creatures.


 * Shin's father uses Kamui with his right eye to warp to the tower, and the little creature uses Kamui to warp Shin there as well; at least that's how it looks.


 * Shin's father uses his Mangekyou Sharingan (same design as Shin's) to telepathically control numerous scalpels in order to attack Naruto, who partially calls forth Kurama to deflect the attack.


 * At this point I think it's worth pointing out that shin (新) is Japanese for "new," so the name "Uchiha Shin" can also be thought of as "New Uchiha." It could also mean "true," which I think was probably intended; is he a "true" Uchiha or a "new" Uchiha? Given all the clones, I'm thinking it's the latter.
