Uchiha Sarada possesses many outstanding qualities and is Naruto's successor, bringing Konoha Village to a new level. She not only inherited the Uchiha lineage but also inspired many people, proving herself to be an excellent leader.
Uchiha Sarada had craved this position from the beginning
The people who can best become Hokage are those who want to take on the job in the first place. Hashirama tops this list as the first leader, while Tobirama – as rigid as his reign – only tries his best to enforce duty and follow tradition. When the mantle was passed down, Hiruzen took the job back after Minato passed away. Sadly, he did not oversee Konoha well. Lady Tsunade also had difficulty with that.
It's not that they're not good, it's that they don't have any dreams about this job so they're not enthusiastic about it, Naruto is a typical example. Uchiha Sarada, on the other hand, dreamed of becoming the best Hokage from the beginning. No matter how many battles she went through, she was never afraid, burdened, or wavered in her thoughts. This is the type of person who is proactive, passionate and really strives to develop themselves.
Sarada has diplomatic abilities
Hokages who truly shine will often have good relationships with people. Naruto, Hashirama, and Minato were all very popular, but other leaders such as Hiruzen, Tobirama, and Tsunade had difficulty in the diplomatic arena.
On the contrary, Sarada is someone who connects many generations. She can easily dispel people's doubts about her abilities. Uchiha Sarada is extremely attractive, she is the warmth that everyone looks forward to. This would allow other countries to look towards her and help shape the future in an even more diplomatic way.
Sarada learns from the mistakes of previous generations
The pillar to being a good leader is learning from history and not repeating mistakes. Naruto's era of peace is in turmoil. Uchiha Sarada's time provided an opportunity for her to learn from Naruto's mistakes in trusting Kawaki.
Plus, she has documents on all the previous wars, from Orochimaru's attack, Akatsuki's attack, Kaguya's, and other Ōtsutsuki invasions. A quick-witted person like Uchiha Sarada knows how to make the best use of this archive, and adjust it to the best of its ability.
Sarada knows when to break the rules
A good leader knows when to break the rules. Sarada has researched and reconciled everything, understanding when to disobey the rules. She's not afraid to form her own revolution, as you saw Uchiha Sarada teaming up with Sumire in a difficult situation.
Daring to ignore the rules shows that she is a good leader, knows who to choose for certain jobs and also knows how to resolve civil wars. This is definitely something that all Hokage, especially Hiruzen, would be proud of.
Sarada understands science
Science is a big step forward in the Boruto era. However, Naruto did not grasp the opportunity. This difference is the reason Boruto tried to cheat by using Katasuke's tools during the ninja exam.
Uchiha Sarada was able to resolve this generational divide because she spent time working in Katasuke's laboratory to discover what was needed for Konoha. She even educated some people about Katasuke's work, her efforts helping Konoha to embrace science as a positive change.
Sarada's understanding of youth
Misunderstanding the nuances of youth is a problem many Hokage face, as they get older. Even Naruto struggles with this, as he is often exhausted by the rigors of his job. This is why young Sasuke turned against Konoha - no one knew how to reach out and appease his anger.
However, Uchiha Sarada knows what the young generation of Konoha wants and needs to develop. This is why the new generation of ninjas, such as Mitsuki, Inojin and many others, admire Sarada the most.
Sarada learns from Naruto
No one has studied and learned from Naruto like Sarada. Konohamaru also admitted that Sarada best embodies what Naruto represents: hope, inspiration, and charisma. With many considering Naruto the best Hokage, Uchiha Sarada is clearly the right successor.
Sarada always protects the people
Sarada dared to argue with Shikamaru about Kawaki's deception. She also made Kawaki know that she would liberate the village. Sarada doesn't hold back on anyone, even those she feels close to, like Katasuke and Amado when it comes to Konoha's interests.
Sarada loves and cherishes the Leaf Village
Uchiha Sarada does not consider Konoha a land full of pawns, she understands that the value of each life cannot be measured. The people of the Village are not soldiers, but the heart of the Village. Sarada is the symbol of the future for the people.
Sarada wants to atone for her family's past sins
Uchiha Sarada knew she had a blood debt to clear about the Uchi clan's tragedy involving Itachi. Not to mention, the sins of Obito, Madara and Sasuke caused the Sasuke clan to have an extremely dark history. She wants to regain her family's name.

She doesn't see her village as a burden but turns it into motivation, which is a rare quality that previous Hokages did not have. This factor also makes fans optimistic that she will definitely succeed.
