He likes Sakura. (which is an oddity, considering his user name has Uchiha in it) Admirable, considering most western fans hate her, for one reason or another.

But yeah, her and Kakashi are in fact, dead weight in this fight simply because niether of them are gods. They can be of use, if Kishimoto made use of them somehow. But yeah. We already know that line. In fact, Sakura using Strength of Hundred was probably done so she could survive the battle instead of actually contributing to it.
