Chapter 678 was colored by Shueisha's team, and Kishi did not color those panels. However, the cover of 686 was colored by Kishimoto, and that was confirmed when the the coloring of the characters on the 686 cover was the exact same as that of the coloring of the characters on the Volume 70 cover, which was also drawn by Kishimoto. Since Shueisha's coloring is not the same as Kishimoto's, who chose to color Sasuke's Rinnegan as purple, not red.

Fair enough. I was unaware that it was Kishimoto who had colored the cover.
