The war was over.
All the ninja cleared up the remnants of the battlefield.

Tsunade said, "The Ninja Alliance has only just been established. Konoha needs an experienced and powerful ninja to serve as Hokage and handle the aftermath of the Fourth War. Every ninja in the village believes you are the most suitable candidate. After all, you already have experience."
She could not understand why Tobitake Tonbo was always shirking responsibility when he was clearly so capable.
Mitokado Homura said, "That's right. A new era needs a new outlook. Tsunade is getting old too, and the younger generation needs to take control..."
Before he could finish, Tsunade glared at him with killing intent written all over her face.
"Ahem. In any case, Tsunade has done an excellent job as Hokage. You need to take on this responsibility," Mitokado Homura said with a dry cough, changing the subject.
Tobitake Tonbo curled his lip. "What do you mean, let us young people take control? Homura-senpai and Tsubaki-senpai are even older than Lady Tsunade, aren't you? Why don't you retire?"
Talking about letting the young control the new era? What a joke.
