I don't like Orochimaru as the ultimate villain. His character was not evil, he was apathetic and amoral. He's an amoral scientist.

I see only three options in this regard:

>>Nagato as the final villain, but it would require a LOT of rewriting and restructuring

>>Obito as the final villain, but it would require rewriting/restructuring the Madara part (i personally prefer this)

>>Madara as the final villain, in which case Obito's part would be rewritten.

Well, the alternative is that you run much longer than 700 chapters to fit it all in properly, but that also has downsides.
