Why does Orochimaru helps Sasuke in the midst of war?


Obito Uchiha's ultimate goal was to place everybody in the **Infinite
Tsukuyomi** and lead people to peace through genjutsu, where one can achieve
his/her dreams and wishes. That being said, Obito joined Madara because greed
had driven people to achieve ultimate power. In the course, his beloved Rin
died. Given this, Obito was to trying make sure the greed gets completely
eliminated.

Whereas Orochimaru is driven by the greed to master all the jutsu in the
world. Obito would not let that happen in the world of **Tsukuyomi**.
Therefore he had to participate in the war to keep his greed alive, with this
he was not only helping Sasuke but also himself.

_One can also question why Orochimaru took this decision just after Sasuke
decided to join war with the will to save._

Possibly Orochimaru still wants to take Sasuke's body, maybe this was an
attempt to win back his trust. Think about it.
