I think the anime right now has the luxury to keep us entertained with canon material while at the same time allowing the manga to speed ahead. After the Sarada Arc, they could adapt Steam Ninja Scrolls to give us Kakashi's POV while the Shin thing was happening and also introduce us to Asuma's and Kurenai's daughter. Adapt Mitsuki's origin story as some sort of flashback. And if that's not enough, a little bit of slice-of-life, one-shot fillers here and there of episode 18 caliber and then they could start adapting the manga.
