The whole back and forth thing took over half of the spin-off already. "Oh she lives with Sakura; Oh she has the same glasses as Karin; Oh Naruto says she is like Sakura; Oh her parents act weird when she asks if Sakura is her mother", it was already a huge thing and I'm more than just certain that the DNA test put an end to this. The final result doesn't even seem like something Kishimoto would end up changing. That's so unlike his style. Nothing is ever more accurate than a DNA test, and every emotional moment that was caused by this matter would be the result of a simple and meaningless mistake if Sakura ended up being the biological mother after all, which would be ridiculous. It's like I explained in an earlier comment. This is all about learning about the definition of a mother. Now Sarada refuses to help her mother because she's not her biological mother. I don't think Kishimoto is going to change that, because Sarada needs to learn that a mother isn't defined by who gave birth to her. That's also the point he made through Sakura's speech, and it's dead obvious that this topic is in the center of the current events. Sarada learning to love her mother for what she has done and not for whether she has given birth to her or not, THAT sounds like Kishimoto. Sarada finding out that Sakura is the biological mother and being like "Oh, so she is my mother. Alright, we can go save her now. Now I can love her" doesn't sound like Kishimoto. Even if it gets revealed after Sarada reawakens her feelings for her mother. It would ruin it all. It would ruin Kishimoto's very own message that motherhood doesn't necessarily have to do with biology. Given Sakura's speech about how a family is connected through feelings, not through genes, it's beyond unlikely Sakura will end up being the biological mother, because the message Kishimoto is delivering would be pointless if that happened.
