In the world of Boruto, the eighth Hokage of Konoha must be chosen to succeed Naruto, who was declared dead after being challenged by his own son, Boruto. In the upcoming timeskip of four years, a leader must be elected to govern the village hidden in the leaves. Although Kawaki transferred Naruto and his wife to a dimension where time does not pass, the village cannot stand without a leader. This leaves us to ask, who will be the next Hokage of Konoha?
According to Game Rant, two candidates have emerged as potential successors to the Hokage title. The first candidate is Shikamaru, the advisor to the seventh Hokage. He is known for his intelligence and strategic thinking, making him an expert in war strategies and quick decision-making. However, Shikamaru is not strong enough to protect Konoha.
The second candidate is Sasuke Uchiha, who is the perfect candidate to replace Naruto as the eighth Hokage of Konoha. Sasuke possesses incredible strength and analytical thinking skills that surpasses the average ninja, making him an ideal leader. If he is chosen, Sasuke will make history as the first Uchiha to ever become the village leader.
In conclusion, the next Hokage has to be someone who can lead, protect, and make wise decisions for the village. Shikamaru and Sasuke are both capable and potential candidates to take on the role of Hokage. Though whoever is chosen will represent a new era for Konoha, especially during a critical time where the village needs to be united in the face of adversity.
