Naruto Thread (Spoilers For Sure)

I think there must be some ulterior motive we aren't aware of as of yet that explains why he doesn't go after them immediately seeing as he should easily outlast whatever they can throw at him with his untouchableness and that's the only thing he has shown so far. Not to mention Zetsu who seems extremely strong would be backing him up. Or it's simply the plot being the plot and keeping Naruto alive until the end of the war. I mean Madara is all about lies and deceit. Why would his moon eye plan be any differnt?
