"Yes."
Tsunade nodded.
The various clans had indeed approached her in private and asked her to bring this up. More precisely, they had come to her together.
Except for the Uchiha and Hyuga.
The Uchiha and Hyuga Clan Compounds stood in remote corners at the edge of the village. The Uchiha in particular were more isolated than any other clan.
After Yan became Hokage, he had not relocated the Uchiha Clan Compound either.
Aside from Konoha's continuous expansion, relocating the territory of a major clan like the Uchiha would be troublesome.
Rather than waste time and effort tossing everything around, it was better to focus on developing the surrounding area where they already were.
By now, the area around the Uchiha Clan Compound had gradually become prosperous as well.
After all, Konoha's population kept growing, and population growth meant many underdeveloped areas would gradually develop.
The old district, however, had lost some of its appeal after the new Hokage Office Building was constructed. It was still as lively as ever.
But it was no longer the village's most important district.
Thus, a problem lay before all the clans: the development of the old district.
Would it remain as it was, or would it undergo changes?
If changes were coming, they would inevitably affect the ninja clans whose compounds were located in the old district.
Of Konoha's remaining ninja clans, aside from the Hyuga and Uchiha, most had their compounds concentrated in the old district. Even Ino–Shika–Cho were no exception.
It was only because Ino–Shika–Cho needed to raise deer and livestock that their compounds were located on the outskirts.
But they still fell within the old district.
If changes were coming, their clans needed to prepare in advance.
"The old district issue does need to be resolved. How about this? Notify
