DestinyBlitz Posted February 20, 2012 Report Share Posted February 20, 2012 Agreeing with everyone else, for a new Hokage to be chosen, the previous one has to die. But then...why did Minato become Hokage if Sarutobi was still alive...? Ohhh nasty this is muddling me up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maanmedia Posted February 27, 2012 Report Share Posted February 27, 2012 Tsunade and Jiraiya didn't show them selves during that time. The third had to! There was no one else, or Danzou would have taken it and the third didn't want that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
avpai Posted March 4, 2012 Report Share Posted March 4, 2012 naruto the 6th hokage?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dr.faustus Posted March 10, 2012 Report Share Posted March 10, 2012 It's true that Danzo always had the ambition to become the Hokage, but on the other hand he was a friend of Hiruzen. That's why he would not try to dethrone him when the 4th died Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth_B Posted March 10, 2012 Report Share Posted March 10, 2012 but, what about when stability returned, or was there no one better?why didn't danzo try to take over then?I think when the 3rd took back over Danzo was still no match to try and take over then and would have been easily beaten by the 3rd. Plus as previous said Danzo was a bit more preoccupied with the Uchiha and stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jymmer Posted April 1, 2012 Report Share Posted April 1, 2012 Tsunade probably wasnt strong enough back then and the 3rd wasnt as old so he seemed like a good option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kida Masaomi Posted April 1, 2012 Report Share Posted April 1, 2012 I believe the reason when the 4th passed and they did not appoint a new Hokage is because the 3rd still had the trait to lead Konoha.As for anyone else being worthy I had one person in mind and I'm sure most of you remember when Tsunade was ill , they appointed Kakashi to be the new Hokage, so I thought maybe Kakashi would be a worthy Hokage.

sjacket01 Posted April 23, 2012 Report Share Posted April 23, 2012 3rd was probably still strongest in the village so it just fell back on him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aassashish18 Posted April 25, 2012 Report Share Posted April 25, 2012 Hey.... Sarutobi didn't choose anybody for the title before his death... same in Minato's case... and I guess they were not sure of taking Tsunade into account because maybe she was having debts and hard times then as well....

afan101 Posted July 17, 2012 Report Share Posted July 17, 2012 There probably wasn't anyone else fit for the role other than the previous Hokage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wrathofheaven1 Posted July 17, 2012 Report Share Posted July 17, 2012 Sarutobi was the 3rd hokage before 3th hokage. Both of them were hokages. After 4ths death 3rd hokage was left Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Santilon_dan Posted July 19, 2012 Report Share Posted July 19, 2012 Maybe the plan was to make Danzo 5th hokage after minato's death but sarutobi didnt want to make Danzo hokage.So,he takes his place back again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MonstaBug Posted August 16, 2012 Report Share Posted August 16, 2012 since the third was already old, he chose narutos father as his successor, then, when the 4th suddenly died, they were in a crisis and had no time to search for a new one, so the third took over again...and i think when tsunade dies, which will happen in the series i suspect since both jiraya and orochimaru died already, naruto will be the 6th and after him probably konohamaru xD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoronoaZoro Posted August 30, 2012 Report Share Posted August 30, 2012 Maybe when the leaf was attacked by the nine tails they needed someone who was already used to the role of hokage at the time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
juushiro2 Posted October 15, 2012 Report Share Posted October 15, 2012 I think the third was already retired when the fourth took position. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xraer Posted October 15, 2012 Report Share Posted October 15, 2012 I think that Sarutobi was the best person for the position at the time and it'd be a lot easier to appoint him than seek out a new hokage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
