Traveling through the universe, starting with obtaining the Marvel Ten Rings

In the mountain cemetery, Black Zetsu has lost contact with Rosen for a long time.

Black Zetsu vaguely felt that Rosen might very well discover that he was not his clone.

However, his power has now reached a bottleneck. He currently has seven members under his command: Obito, Orochimaru, Hoshigaki Kisame, Deidara, Hidan, Biwa Juzo, and Yamaguijo.

The strength of these six people is quite impressive, especially Obito. As the leader in name only, his strength is much stronger than any Kage-level person.

Hoshigaki Kisame and Deidara are strategic-level warriors, and they both wreak havoc on the battlefield.

Feiduan relied on the immortality of the Evil God Cult and the secret method of Death by Blood to make most of the enemies who were not familiar with him fall into his trap.

The strength of Biwa Juzang and Shan Guizhang is relatively weaker.

However, he can face two or three elite jonin at the same time without losing the upper hand.

As for Orochimaru, Black Zetsu could not figure out his strength, and Orochimaru's position was also wavering.

He had heard some information from White Zetsu who was lurking in Konoha several times, and Orochimaru returned to Konoha Village many times.

So Black Zetsu is very distrustful of Orochimaru.

Many secrets within the organization are also kept secret from Orochimaru.

However, it is still too difficult to subvert the ninja world or even resurrect his mother with only the people in the current organization.

So Black Zetsu is now in a dilemma.

Do you want to go find Rosen?

In the end, Black Zetsu decided to go and meet Rosen.

He wanted to determine Rosen's attitude.

……

At this moment, Rosen was entertaining Minato Namikaze and Madara Uchiha.

This was the first time that Minato Namikaze met Rosen.

Putting aside the issue of stance, Rosen in front of us is indeed a very qualified leader.

In just over a decade, the Yangnin Village has grown from nothing to its current size.

Rosen is a wise, intelligent, and powerful leader.

Even Minato Namikaze would occasionally have some different thoughts in his heart.

Perhaps the Rosen in front of him can really change the ninja world that is now ravaged by war.

Of course, this thought was only fleeting. As Hokage, he had an obligation to protect Konoha.

Especially since the other party wants to annex or even destroy Konoha.

"Senior Rosen, how did you make the Yang Ninja Village reach its current size and prosperity in just over a decade?"

"If I were to explain it in detail, it would take three days and three nights to finish. But if I were to put it simply, productivity determines the economic foundation, and the economic foundation determines the social system."

In ancient times, most social structures were based on agriculture due to low productivity.

No matter how advanced a social system is, it needs productivity as its support.

Take the Luo family base in the Marvel world for example. If the modern system were applied to the original situation, public resentment would boil over in a few days.

Because productivity cannot keep up, just like the modern system of exempting agricultural taxes and even subsidizing farmers, it may be feasible in modern times, but it would absolutely not be possible in feudal dynasties.

Why did the ancients emphasize agriculture and suppress commerce?

The scholars and officials in ancient times who were able to sit in the court might have been limited by their vision, but they were definitely the smartest people of their time.

They must be aware of the importance of businessmen.

However, they still had to emphasize agriculture and suppress commerce because under that level of productivity, they needed 99% of the people to farm in order to maintain the social structure and their rule.

If the status of merchants is improved, a large number of people will leave to do business, and the land will become barren.

However, when productivity increases, merchants will be needed to circulate these goods, and their social status will be improved accordingly.

And Rosen's words were nothing short of a subversion of Minato Namikaze's cognition.

Whether in the Warring States Period or the current Ninja Village era, people follow the most basic behavioral logic, which leads to a very shallow cultural level.

When Rosen established the Yang Ninja Village, the first thing he developed was not the number of ninjas in the village, but the economy and productivity.

If the ninja village cannot be self-sufficient in economy and productivity, it will be restricted by the daimyo.

Today, the Yang Ninja Village has both money and people. Although it is still nominally under the jurisdiction of the daimyo, in reality it is the Yang Ninja Village that makes money with the daimyo, and the daimyo then sends funding in his own name.

The Daimyo now has to try to please the Yonin Village, and the Daimyo of Tianguo is also a smart man.

He understood the current situation and knew that the Yangnin Village still needed his righteousness, so he cooperated very well.

Once the daimyo turns against the Yoshinobi Village, the Yoshinobi Village may be besieged by all the countries in the ninja world, but the first to die will definitely be the daimyo and his entire family.

Uchiha Madara sat next to Namikaze Minato, drinking and eating meat.

He did not intervene at all in the communication between Rosen and Minato Namikaze.

"So, in fact, the Land of Fields is no longer the daimyo's Land of Fields?" asked Minato Namikaze with a twinkling eye.

Rosen smiled and said, "Are you trying to use this as a threat to me?"

"After all, Konoha Village and Yang Ninja Village are enemies now, aren't they?"

"If everyone plays within the rules, then I will also abide by the rules of the game. However, if someone intends to overturn the table, then I may not be able to unify the entire ninja world, but I will definitely be able to destroy the entire ninja world."

Uchiha Madara, who was originally indifferent, suddenly stopped drinking and turned to look at Rosen.

At this moment, Minato Namikaze felt the murderous intent emanating from Rosen.

"You may not understand what my strength represents, but you can ask the Shura of the Ninja World around you. Even for him, it is not difficult to destroy the entire Ninja World, let alone me."

Namikaze Minato couldn't help but look at Uchiha Madara, who said calmly: "He is right, calmly. If you want to act according to your own ideas, Minato, as a ninja of Konoha, I will also support your ideas."

Namikaze Minato forced a smile: "I don't mean that, but Senior Rosen, do you think Konoha can develop like the Yonin Village?"

Rosen thought for a moment and said, "Not in a short time."

"why?"

"Once an order is established, it will inevitably breed a group of vested interests, and they will also be the supporters of this rule. If you want to change Konoha, you can either use decades or even generations of common ideas to change it, or destroy this order and then rebuild it according to your own ideas."

Just like the Ming Dynasty, Rosen and Luo Mingyue’s ideal was to transform the Ming Dynasty, it would be better to rebuild China and establish a brand new dynasty.

The same is true in the ninja world, where the distribution of interests and power structure are already deeply rooted.

At this time, you can say to those powerful people or big families, please wait a moment, let us reorganize the resources again, and see if those vested interests will take it or not, and then the matter will be settled.
