Agree with Rylharu completely. The arc is now done, it needs to wrap-up and it needs to clear up what happened to the others. The next arc will definitely involve the Akatsuki though maybe not Itachi and Kisame - Plant Dude and someone else, most probably.

I actually hope it'll involve Jiraiya too. We've never seen him fighting completely serious - against Itachi he just didn't have time since he escaped, and agains Orochimaru he was partly drugged. Maybe he'll take Naruto away again and on the way they run into the Akatsuki, but that'd be way too alike to what happened with Itachi.

With what's happening now though, I do see Tsunade coaching Sakura. Fine, I see SOMEONE coaching Sakura, or maybe just wish she'll become less useless.
