In the previous chapters of Boruto, fans clearly saw that Konohamaru Sarutobi was being interrogated by the village daimyo and elders for collaborating with Boruto Uzumaki, whom they believed to be the biggest threat to the village. However, the biggest suspect for them is Shikamaru Nara.

Given that Shikamaru never actually held the position of Hokage. In any case, Konoha doesn't benefit enough from him and it would be natural to imprison him for collaborating with Boruto.

Konohamaru needs a bigger moment to shine soon

Of course, making Konohamaru a Jonin comes with its own problems. He is currently not strong enough to become a respected Hokage of the village, and by now he was greatly disappointed. In other words, he is stronger than anyone else. At least Shikamaru. Plus, Konohamaru may get a power-up soon, and that's all it takes to make him a worthy Hokage.

Fans shouldn't forget that Konohamaru took note of the Hokage's location. When he was young. He idolizes Naruto Uzumaki and wants to live up to the expectations of those around him. If he becomes the next Hokage, it would be the perfect opportunity for him to rise to the occasion and lead from the front to prove everyone wrong.
