Alright, so Sarutobi shows up rescues Naruto after the giant flower that is the Juubi begins stealing back chakra from all those around it. Madara reveals the secrets of the origin of Shinobi and Chakra, and he learned it from the Uchiha tablets.
I'm guessing Madara is going to reveal something about the Sage of Six Paths, besides what was revealed previously, like maybe Naruto is his reincarnation or that he would be the only one capable of stopping the Juubi.
Discuss, go.

If Naruto is the reincarnation of the Sage, I'm going to set Kishimoto's house on fire >=( .
^Now that my hyperbolic, overly-sensitive fan reaction is out of the way, what I will really do if that happens is become mildly displeased, if only because that would seem to come out of left field. Granted, it's not like things don't frequently just turn up without any real explanation, but I feel like the possibility of reincarnation is kind of a big deal. It really wouldn't seem right for Kishi to suddenly say "reincarnation happens, and the most intense case (Hagoromo --> Naruto) is the first one I'm going to reveal."
It doesn't help that Naruto is already comparable to about fifty-thousand other dead ninja already -_- . He's been compared to Sai's "brother," Dan, Nawaki, the First Hokage, Jiraiya, the Fourth Hokage (though that one's more understandable), and yes, the Sage himself. How many heroic people can one boy take after?
Personally, I'd actually prefer it if the series ended with Obito and/or Madara winning at this point. I know that won't happen, and it really shouldn't, but I empathize with their message and goals more than I do with Naruto's. Then again, I also empathized with Kira over L, so it's pretty clear where I stand on the scale of Idealism vs. Cynicism =P .

Interesting to say the least. Yeah Reincarnation would be a big "Whoa" but I can see it happening, I mean the demons can come back and around, and if all Chakra originally came from the Juubi, then that means its all a cycle.
Round and round and round it goes.

I don't know if all chakra coming from the Juubi makes it a cycle. Otherwise, that would mean that everyone is the reincarnation of Ootsutsuki Hagoromo and that he himself is the reincarnation of his own mother. That said, some explanation to that effect could work if Kishimoto wanted it to. I just would rather not see it happen. Naruto's gotten far away from his "hard work and dedication work" background without being the incarnation of the closest thing that universe has to a god.
I would have been okay thinking that Nagato was the Sage's second coming, but thanks to Madara, that notion has been Jossed =/ .
