Yea but... weren't the swords summoned during the 4th war and so, they're back in the hands of the Hidden Mist? And i doubt the Hidden Mist would want Suigetsu back and vice versa.

Isn't it a little early to say "I want you to be the next Mizukage"? Naruto was i think 16 when he was officially called the next hokage (at the end of the 4th war). It's not clear, but it seems that Hiruzen was also extremely young, as was Minato when he was considered the next.
