Considering the amount of text, this week is translated well by those at Mangastream. I changed some subtleties as usual... My translations in bold, and comments in italics. If it's not mentioned here, I felt that the text was sufficiently translated without mixing messages. You can always post specific questions, and I will be happy to clarify. 
p3
Bee: Target's outta sight, he got away
Looks like in the end their spy won the day
Bee: I lost sight of our Mokuhyou (goal)
Their spy won this one, that's their Mokuromi (plan/scheme)
p4
Motoi: They must remain on the island
Motoi: We will have them stay on this island
Subtle difference, but Motoi is insisting they stay - not forcing them to stay
p5
Bee: No Luck-a motha fucka
Bee: Didn't work, bakarayou, konoyarou
"Bakayarou, konoyarou" is something Bee has always said (rapped). No swearing again
Big Turtle: Naw... I'm still practically a hatchling...
Big Turtle: I'm still a tiny baby turtle...
The turtle refers to himself as "Washi," which is generally used by people from older times (Jiraiya referred to himself that way, even when he was young). Rather than just a hatchling, this turtle appears to be REALLY old, just not as old as the other big turtles (I would assume).
p6
Motoi: But regardless, moving the island to the hidden cloud is much safer than any boat.
Motoi: Moving this island is much safer than the boat heading towards the Hidden Village of the Cloud.
A few interpretations - (1) the Island itself is also moving towards the Hidden Village of the Cloud, (2) there is a decoy boat moving towards the Hidden Village of the Cloud or (3) Motoi is suggesting that a boat moving towards the Hidden Village of the Cloud would definitely be a target, therefore staying on the moving island is their safest plan.
p7
Kabuto: Let me take care of the eight and nine-tails.
Kabuto: I'll go to where the eight and nine tails are.
English sounds a bit unrefined this way, but Kabuto never refers to 'taking care' of them. This statement still leaves Kabuto's possible alliance with the Shinobi, and not Tobi, still up for grabs.
Kabuto: It's a good chance for me to earn your trust.
Kabuto: It's a good chance for you to trust our alliance (cooperative relationship).
Trust in the alliance - not trust in Kabuto.
Kabuto: If not, this Zetsu's body will do just fine for now,
if you're willing to "share the wealth" as they say.
It wouldn't even delay the ten-tails' revival at all.
Kabuto: If not, this Zetsu's body will suffice... just a small share.
It's not like that will delay the revival of the ten-tails, right?
Looks like the translators had some trouble with this one. Kabuto is asking for a share of the Zetsus... possibly meaning that Kabuto knows that (1) there is more than one Zetsu or (2) you can take parts of Zetsu away without much harm. He even knows that his 'share' is not enough to delay the revival of the ten-tails.
Madara: Well aren't we well-informed...
Madara: You seem to know quite a lot...
No sarcasm in Madara's tone.
p8
Kabuto: Zetsu here is the key to fighing their numbers... correct?
Kabuto: That why Zetsu's the key to (this side's) forces... correct?
Kabuto still doesn't use the term "us" or "our" when referring to Madara+Zetsu. He also does not refer to the numbers of combattants on either side.
Black Zetsu: How much do you know?
Black Zetsu: Where did you (get such information)....?!
Zetsu did not ask about how much he knows, rather where he obtained his information.
Kabuto: With the knowledge and resources at my disposal i can make Zetsu even stronger.
Kabuto: With the knowledge and resources at my disposal i can definitely make Zetsu even stronger.
Kabuto says 'definitely' making Zetsu stronger.
White Zetsu: What do we do Tobi? Are you really gonna trust him?
White Zetsu: Tobi... are you really going to trust a guy like this?!
Zetsu seems very doubtful in trusting Kabuto.
p9
Kabuto: The Heretical Demon Statue
Kabuto: Gedou Mazou
Gedou (outside road) Mazou (Demon statue)
p10
Madara:...well not quite that dramatic. This is something I grew from living tissue I stole from him during our battle.
It has no mind of its own.
Anyway...
Madara:...however these are only cultured living cells that I had taken from him during our battle.
It does not have any consciousness.
but more importantly...
p12
Tsuchikage: So they discovered we'd be coming here...
Tsuchikage: We've come here, and information has leaked...
Tsuchikage does not specifically refer to their headquarters. It may be also taken as "We've come this far (in planning), and information has leaked..."
Tsuchikage: But now that we know that they know, they'll have to be on their guard as well.
Unless they want to talk into a trap.
Tsuchikage: But if WE know about the information leak, they will be cautious as well.
(because) it will be easier for us to set up a trap for them
Tsuchikage sounded a little strange in the English trans... he sounds pretty intelligent in the Japanese text - albeit holding on to titles of the past a bit too much...
Tsunade: I'm still not convinced even if it really CAN move
Tsunade: We can't be feeling secure just because the island can move.
Tsunade does not doubt the island's moving capabilities. She is saying that they cannot just sit back and feel that Bee and Naruto are protected just because the island can move about on its own.
p15
Tsuchikage: I'll do it
Tsuchikage: I'll go
Tsuchikage: I'm Oonoki. The man who always has it both ways!!
Inheritor of the terrifying title of Tsuchikage!
Tsuchikage: I am the one with the title of Tsuchikage - who was feared as the "Ryoutenbin no Oonoki!"
This translates to Oonoki that is "Ryoutenbin" ("ryou" -Dual "tenbin" -Balance or Dual Scale). Oonoki is in Katakana, so it can refer to a proper noun. It also may loosely mean 'gigantic tree.' Also worth noting that "tenbin" is used in the title for Jyuugo - who is called "Tenbin no Jyuugo"
p16
Tsuchikage: y-you little whipper snapper, I said I'd go! I'm Oonoki. The man who always has it both ways, inheritor of...
Tsuchikage: Y, you fool! I said that I will go! Don't underestimate me, I was feared as the Ryoutenbin no Oonoki...
Kabuto: You two take it easy. See you soon.
Kabuto: You guys just relax. I'll be on my way.
He does NOT say that he will 'see you soon'
Keep in mind that one of the main subtopics of this chapter is whether Kabuto is working for (1) Madara, (2) the Shinobi or maybe (3) himself. There is not much information in this chapter suggesting Kabuto is on one side or another. Keep in mind he also left those bodies he killed for Anko to find. He would most certainly get rid of those bodies if he wanted to keep anonymity.
