—------------------—
The atmosphere on the first floor of the mansion was extremely tense at the moment.
But Mammon still looked relaxed. Although the opponent had a complete massacre of his opponents in terms of numbers, he didn't think it had any effect at all.
"Who are you calling trash?"
But at this moment, an extremely deep male voice came from above.
"Boss!"
"Boss! You're finally here!"
The Team Skull members kept shouting in surprise, and the owner of the voice slowly walked down the stairs.
"oh?"
Mammon raised an eyebrow.
This was a man with a very ferocious look, with white hair, a pair of sunglasses on his forehead, black baggy pants, a white short-sleeved shirt, and a black jacket on the outside.
The whole person looks nonchalant and not easy to mess with.
And he is Guzma, the leader of the Skull Team.
The members of the Skull Team gave in, and Guzma walked slowly towards them with his hands in his pockets, his fierce eyes very intimidating.
"Who did you just call a scumbag?"
Guzma stopped in front of Mammon, leaned forward slightly, and questioned Mammon in a low voice.
"Aren't most of you in the Skull Team just trash? You must be Guzma, right?"
"That's right, I am Guzma." Guzma's expression became even more ferocious.
"Kid, you are not a big guy but you have a big mouth. I don't care if you are from Team Rocket or any other team. Go back to where you came from and don't disturb my nap!"
Guzma ordered them to leave without any hesitation, and his tone was very manic.
It seems that a member of the Team Skull had just informed him.
"Tsk, I thought you, as the leader of the Skull Team, would have some brains, but I didn't expect that this is all."
Guzma was arrogant, but Mammon didn't tolerate him at all and mocked him.
"Did the door squeeze your brain? Or have you become so rude in Alola that you can't even see the situation clearly?"
After these words, Guzma's already ferocious expression became even gloomier.
"Hehehe… I never thought that someone would come to me just to get beaten up."
Guzma grinned grimly, opened the Poké Ball, and a Pokémon that looked like a giant isopod landed in front of Guzma.
This is the Golisopod with insect + water attributes, and also Guzma's ace Pokémon.
"You little brat, I'm going to teach you a lesson. This is not a place for you Team Rocket to run wild."
Guzma grinned and decided to teach this annoying boy a lesson.
Catlin frowned slightly, looking at the ferocious Golisopod solemnly. Judging from his aura, this Golisopod was very powerful.
That's right. After all, the other party is the leader of the Team Skull, so he must be very strong.
However, Metagross has attribute advantages and can fight.
Mammon smacked his lips, stood up and stopped Cross and Catlin who wanted to move forward.
"Interesting. In that case, let me test your skills."
A Poké Ball at Mammon's fingertips enlarged and opened.
A wild Pokémon with flying gray-white hair and blood-red eyes appeared in front of Mammon, tilting its head slightly and staring at the Golisopod quietly.
It was the Annihilape!
"Come on, I'll give you a chance. I hope your strength can be as wild as your mouth." Mammon also grinned.
"You'd better keep an eye on that kid!" Guzma showed his big white teeth.
"Golisopod! Strike head-on!"
The Golisopod let out a low roar, and his entire body shot towards the Annihilape like a cannonball.
"Insane Fist."
The Annihilape clenched his right fist, blue energy continued to condense, and then he swung it out fiercely.
Boom! !
The Qi fist and the Golisopod's head-on attack collided heavily, a violent bang was heard, and a surge of air waves spread out.
But the next second, the Annihilape exerted his strength again, and his Qi Fist directly broke the head-on attack, blasting the Golisopod away.
As Plumeria and the others looked in disbelief, the Golisopod flew backwards at a speed faster than when he charged, and smashed directly into the wall.
Silence!
The whole place was instantly silent.
Guzma's pupils shrank, Catlin's eyes sparkled, this Annihilape was so strong! !
"How... is this possible?" Plumeria murmured in a daze.
How is this possible?! This is impossible!
This is Guzma's ace Golisopod! Even the kings and queens of the islands can't crush Guzma like this.
"Why not?" Mammon chuckled.
He heard Plumeria's beautiful voice. After all, the mansion was really quiet.
"How can a small fry like you who live in a small corner and amuse yourself in your own little world experience the vastness of the outside world?"
Mammon's tone returned to being gentle and elegant, but his words were still sharp and not polite at all.
"Who...are you?"
Guzma's breathing became noticeably heavier, and he stared at Mammon with the look of a wild beast waiting to devour its prey.
There's something wrong with this guy! !
Even if it was Kukui's main force, it would be impossible for him to defeat his Golisopod with just one blow.
And Kukui is the only champion-level trainer in the Alola region!
"Mammon, Mammon from Team Rocket." Mammon smiled.
"So now, Mr. Guzma, are you interested in having a good chat with us?"
"…"
Guzma stared at Mammon for a long moment.
"Come with me." Guzma said in a low voice.
Although he has a bad temper, Guzma also knows the importance of the situation. This is the moment that determines the life and death of the Skull Team.
"A wise choice."
Mammon followed Guzma with Catlin and Cross.
"Plumeria, you come in too."
Plumeria bit her lip and followed.
Only the members of the Team Skull stood there anxiously, not knowing what their future would be like.
But that is not something they can decide.
Guzma brought a few people to a room on the second floor. The style was exactly the same as outside, messy.
"There's nowhere to sit, so feel free to sit." Guzma said calmly, sitting on a wooden box.
Cross took a look, took a stool and wiped it with his sleeve so that Mammon could sit down.
"Tsk~ Can you at least find a place where we can talk?"
Mammon tutted and looked around the room.
"I don't usually do that kind of stuff." Guzma's brow twitched.
"Mammon, what do you want?"
Then Guzma got straight to the point.
"Our Team Rocket is expanding to other areas, and Alola is the first target." Mammon looked at Guzma and Plumeria attentively.
"As for you, the Team Skull, we are definitely going to recruit you. There is no room for compromise."
Mammon tilted his head and looked at the two of them.
Guzma's face was gloomy.
"But I'm a kind person, so I'll give you a chance."
Mammon took out two silver badges and threw them to Guzma and Plumeria.
"What is this?"
Plumeria looked at the capital 'r' badge in her hand.
"I sincerely invite you two to join Team Rocket as high-ranking officers. What do you think?"
Mammon said with a smile.
Team Rocket's...senior executive?
Plumeria glanced at Guzma subconsciously and found that Guzma's brows were furrowed, staring at the silver badge in his hand.
