What post-GSWIV filler would you like to see?

GSWIV- Great Shinobi War IV

Considering its trend of filler, there is a good chance SHIPPUDEN might decide to add some filler stories before the major time Chapter 700 skip. I would actually look forward to this. What I would like to see:
-an adventure for Team 7 (not some major battle, but just a mission).
-Sasuke settling back to Konoha, noting the changes in the village and the Konoha 10.
-the Konoha Council; perhaps the elders Koharu and Homura pressuring Naruto's further containment in the village (commenting that his part in the war led to the failure of the war's goal: keep the Nine-Tails away from Madara) and refusing to pardon Sasuke. Kakashi notes Naruto's role in winning the war, plus their role in the Uchiha massacre (causing Sasuke's fall); he suggests/pressures retirement for the two.
-Naruto getting his new arm.
-A Naruhina scene preluding to THE LAST (Naruto comforting Hinata at Neji's funeral, a scene of Naruto liking being around Hinata).
-An episode of Yamato dealing with his guilt in being a helpless battery for the White Zetsu army that killed many a ninja (including some of his own comrades).

Naruto/Hinata getting some closure for sure.

Well, after 700 episodes (a good amount of them filler, and probably half of that not even necessary to the plotline!), the penultimate manga adaptation has aired (the last being the Boruto epilogue). From my OP, we got reference to the arm implant. However, there will be no adventure for Team 7, and little of Sasuke getting back to village life (although it makes sense that he be locked up). I don't think we'll get Yamato undergoing trauma (then again, the downed look he gives after Tobi disintegrates could reference that one). Still, it appears the next episode is going to be about the triangular relationship of Naruto, Hinata, and Neji. I wonder how they are going to integrate the 'Naruto stands up against Hinata's bullies' story; Will it be SHIPPUDEN 166 or THE LAST's version of the retcon? It should be noted that this episode did use the SHIPPUDEN 166' depiction of the canonical 'Hinata sees Naruto scream his Hokage ambitions at the crowd' scene, so it's a good sign they might still use it as Naruto's introduction to Hinata before the Bullies.
And is it me, or did they use THE LAST's Title music for the scrolled epilogue?

One thing I noticed for sure was the massive jump in animation quality on these mini flash back episodes. The music was also seemed particularly different.

Now what do I want to see(but probably won't get):

- More of Kakashi being the Hokage;
- More interactions between Naruto and Hinata, eventually building up to The Last;
- A more complete version of The Last;
- More on Shikamaru and Temari;
- How exactly did Choji end up with Karui (that felt so random in the manga);
- Akamaru sabotaging all of Kiba's relantionships;
- Rock Lee training to be the very best, as usual;~

Yeah, the animation resembled THE LAST. I like the intro emphasizing that change (including Temari into the mix, considering her part in the novels)
It would be cool if they gave THE LAST the DB Super treatment, adapting the movie into episodes.
As for Shikamaru and Temari, very likely, since they are going to adapt the SHIKAMARU HIDEN and KONOHA HIDEN (Of the latter, Shikamaru wants to find an appropriate Hot Springs for Naruhina's honeymoon, so he asks Temari out to help him)).
