Anyone who collaborates with Boruto Uzumaki will be called a village traitor. – Konoha Elders in Boruto: Two Blue Vortex
Given that Shikamaru never took the place of Hokage After all, Konoha doesn't get enough out of him, and they can imprison him for collaborating with Boruto. In other words, the village will soon need a new Hokage, and the person currently installed as Hokage is Konomaru Sarutobi.

If he were to become 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.
