Do we even know for a fact that Sasuke will be the sixth Hokage? Obito somehow convinced Kakashi to go for the title, despite him not wanting it after Danzo's death (which canonically was, what? Three months before the fight with Kaguya? Three weeks?) and we all know Naruto and Konohamaru are also going for the title.

And while a living Hokage can pass on their title to their successor, Tsunade probably won't be giving up her title anytime soon, since she's determined to fulfill Dan and Nawaki's dreams.

Tsunade would have to die, then Kakashi and Sasuke and Naruto would have to duke it out for the title of Sixth Hokage, as Konohamaru is determined to be Naruto's successor.
