In the next second, a sound of "pop~" appeared.

Because Sato Kaede didn't take it, the scroll fell on the sand in front of Sato Kaede, and some sand particles were immediately splashed by the landing scroll.

Seeing that Sato Kaede didn't take the scroll, Marlos's face suddenly became even more ugly, he gritted his teeth, and finally didn't choose to remain silent.

He has enough troubles on his body now, and if he offends the descendants of the Sakaki boss in front of him again, he may really die in the next rookie competition.

Although Marlos is usually impulsive and headstrong, he is not stupid, and even if he usually prefers to solve everything with his fists, he will also use the art of compromise when he really encounters things that cannot be solved by his fists alone.

Now, Marlos is confronted with something that he can't solve with his fists alone.

Because he cheated on the relationship between Ah Xing and Miya before, Marlos is now being chased by Ah Xing and Miya, to be precise, with Ah Xing as the main Miya as the supplement.

In fact, Marlos is not afraid of Mia, and it is Axing who makes him feel extremely troublesome, a female ninja who is proficient in assassination ninjutsu and has been with him recently.

If it weren't for his prudence and caution, and Ah Xing's dare not be too blatant to assassinate, he would have almost been poisoned several times.

Now, Marlos is like a frightened bird, and he finally understands the horror of provoking a female ninja like A-Xing.

Marlos now carries a large amount of powerful antidote with him at all times, and he has a great distrust of all foreign food, and he does not dare to touch or eat any food unless it has been tested for poison with a silver needle.

As the second generation of the Rockets, Marlos knows far more about the rookie competition than Kaede Sato, and he has received accurate information before the second phase has even begun.

The second phase of the rookie competition will be held on an uninhabited island in the Orange Islands.

(Note: The island where Red Lotus is located is very close to the Orange Islands.) ）

(Note: The Orange Islands are the area of the Orange Alliance that Ash once participated in, this area is located in the southern part of the Kanto region, and there are a large number of islands in it, most of which are uninhabited.) ）

(Note: Due to the scarcity of inhabited islands in the Orange Islands, which are so scattered and scattered, the Coalition is currently investing so little in the area that it is still a haven for pirates and sea smugglers.) ）

Of course, since Marlos can know, Ah Xing, the second generation of the more well-established Rockets, is naturally very clear.

Therefore, Marlos knew that in the next rookie match, Ah Xing would definitely not let go of such an opportunity to easily cross the rules and kill him.

Therefore, he decided to find a powerful helper to help him get rid of Ah Xing's trouble.

Now there are many strong players of Team Rocket waiting for the start of the second phase of the rookie confrontation in Red Lotus Island, and many of them are descendants specially trained by the bosses of various factions.

And Marlos, as one of the few second-generation members of the Rocket team, naturally knows a lot of descendants specially trained by these faction bosses.

It's just that maybe Mallos did too much this time, or Ah Xing is too strong, or maybe he is too famous among the new generation within the Rockets, and he can't find anyone willing to help him, even if he thinks that his offer is already very tempting.

Marlos is not a person who is willing to sit still, and in desperation, he remembers Kaede Sato, who fought him on the plane of Team Rocket not long ago.

After his electric shock beast actually lost to Sato Kaede's Aba monster, Marlos specially sent someone to investigate Sato Kaede's information, and at first all he got was a piece of information about Sato Kaede being an innocent civilian trainer.

However, Marlos was not too clumsy, as he saw Kaede Sato and Kondo having a "pleasant and intimate" conversation on the Rockets plane.

Who is Kondo City, he is the closest subordinate of Boss Sakaki, and Marlos naturally knows about this information, so he swears that Sato Kaede, a person who can hook up with Kondo City, has an absolutely unusual background.

The most important thing is that Marlos doesn't believe that a civilian trainer like Sato Kaede can grow to this height in just over a month, and he has defeated the powerful him, although it is because of the other party's despicable use of the terrain.

Subsequently, Malosto's relationship with Ma Zhishi finally found the latest information about Sato Kaede, as he guessed in his heart, Sato Kaede is the person who is the boss of Sakaki.

However, it is certain that Kaede Sato is a civilian trainer, because Marlos also knows that Boss Sakaki's favorite thing to train is an innocent civilian trainer like Kaede Sato.

Therefore, in Marlos's mind, Sato Kaede is a subordinate who was lucky enough to be favored by Boss Sakaki and secretly cultivated.

There are only two words in Malos's mind about the impression of civilian trainers, that is, "poor" and "weak".

Of course, after Marlos personally fought Sato Kaede, he naturally didn't think Sato Kaede was weak, but he still thought that Sato Kaede, a civilian-born Team Rocket trainer, was very poor.

So, in desperation, Marlos decided to try his luck here with Sato Kaede, hoping to get Sato Kaede's help through a generous reward, even if it didn't work, he wanted to pull Sato Kaede into the water and share the firepower for him.

As for his rudeness and rudeness to Sato Kaede before, in Marlos's opinion, his reward was enough for Sato Kaede, a civilian trainer with little knowledge, to reveal this trivial matter.

In order to get Sato Kaede's help, Marlos can be said to have brought enough sincerity this time, and the scroll he just threw to Sato Kaede is worth a thousand gold to Sato Kaede.

Why is this scroll worth a lot of money to Sato Kaede, because this scroll is a map, and it is a detailed map of the island where the second phase of the Rookie Tournament will be held.

It's fair to say that any member of Team Rocket who participates in the second phase of the Rookie Tournament has at least a 50% increased chance of doing well in the second phase as long as they get this map.

This map was obtained by Ma Zhishi for Marlos with great effort, and as for the channel of obtaining it, Marlos only knew that he came from the Poseidon faction within the Rockets.

Although there are many islands in the Orange Islands, many of them have been discovered due to the tireless development of sea smugglers, including the uninhabited island where the rookie competition was held.

The Poseidon faction is one of the three strongest factions within Team Rocket, this faction is in charge of the sea trade within Team Rocket and has very close ties with many sea smugglers, so it is very easy for them to obtain a map of the island.

Marlos knew through the serious tone in which his cousin handed him the map that the price was very high, and that Sato Kaede was the boss of Sakaki, so he knew that the chances of this map were almost zero.

Because Boss Sakaki is notoriously strict in the Rockets, he has taken great pains to organize this rookie match, so he will never allow any cheating.

And the premise that Boss Sakaki doesn't allow others to cheat is naturally that he can't cheat himself, so Marlos thinks that Sato Kaede doesn't know about this map.

In fact, Marlos had thought about using this map to win over the descendants of those faction bosses of the Rocket team, but he didn't take it out at first because he was not at ease.

And after getting a lot of rejections, Marlos simply didn't plan to take it out, because he already knew that those descendants of Team Rocket probably wished that he would be killed by Ah Xing, and if he really took it out, he might turn around and be sold by these people.

As for why do you dare to take it out to Sato Kaede now? The reason is very simple, Marlos believes that Sato Kaede does not have this map in his hands, and he firmly believes that Sato Kaede, a trainer from a civilian background, definitely wants to get ahead in this rookie competition.

And as long as Sato Kaede wants to get ahead, he will never be stupid enough to report this map information to the boss behind him, because it is not in his best interest.

Yes, some desperate Marlos is gambling, betting that Sato Kaede doesn't know about this map, and betting that Sato Kaede won't expose him.

In the end, when Marlos saw Sato Kaede open the scroll and see the contents and his face changed, he knew that he had made the right gamble in the first place, and Sato Kaede didn't know about the map.

"Are you sure it's real?"

Sato Kaede looked at the map in his hand with a large number of annotations, his face couldn't help but change, he took a deep breath, and then asked Marlos in front of him with a solemn face.

Seeing Sato Kaede's expression, the iron blue on Marlos's face disappeared instantly, he smiled again, and then took out a green stone with lightning stripes on his body.

"Of course, if you agree to my terms, you will not only get it, but you will also be able to get this thing, which is a good thing, and your Pichu must need it very much."

Marlos shook the stone in his hand at Sato Kaede and smiled.
