Chapter 45: Big Milk Tank

Leo smiled slightly and changed the content on the tablet Rotom's screen again.

"Alright, Mr. Long Nose, Mr. President, let's move on to selecting your Pokémon."

As the images of various Pokémon filled the screen, Usopp and Kaya's father couldn't help but feel a growing sense of excitement. These magical creatures from another world captivated them instantly.

After exchanging a glance with Usopp, Kaya's father stepped forward, his mind filled with thoughts. After a brief moment, he spoke up:

"Lord Leo, I wonder if you have any magical items or Pokémon similar to Ho-Oh's Feather that could heal someone's body?"

As an experienced businessman, Kaya's father knew that choosing a Pokémon to boost his business would be the most logical choice. However, after learning about the miraculous properties of Ho-Oh's Feather, his thoughts turned to his daughter Kaya and her frail health. Her condition had been a source of constant worry for him over the years. Despite consulting numerous renowned doctors, the only recommendation they had for her was rest.

His initial plan was to secure enough wealth to ensure Kaya could live comfortably for the rest of her life. But now, with the appearance of this dimensional merchant who could seemingly do anything, hope flickered within him once again.

"A healing item..." Leo mused as he considered Kaya's father's request. There were indeed many healing items and medical technologies in the Pokémon world, but they were mostly designed for Pokémon, not humans. However, given the advanced state of medicine in the Pirate World, it seemed that something more extraordinary would be needed to address Kaya's condition.

After a moment's thought, Leo decided to consult the system. He initiated a search with specific conditions like [Healing], [Medical], and [Price under 1,000 points].

Soon, Leo's attention was drawn to a pink Pokémon on the list.

[Pokémon: Miltank]

[Type: Normal]

[Ability: Thick Fat (Reduces damage from Fire and Ice-type moves)]

[Level: 15]

[Price: 800 points]

[Special Notes: This Miltank from the Pokémon Research Center produces highly nutritious milk that can cure most physical ailments, strengthen the body, and improve overall fitness.]

"This Miltank looks promising..." Leo thought to himself. The system's increasingly detailed information confirmed his belief. Although Miltank's combat talent was average, its milk's potential medicinal value was extraordinary, explaining the relatively high price of 800 points.

Leo snapped his fingers, transferring Miltank's attributes to the tablet Rotom, but he deliberately omitted the talent section. Although he was a businessman, Leo didn't want to limit the potential of the Pokémon he traded. After all, this world was full of unexpected miracles.

"Miltank..." Kaya's father murmured as he looked at the strange Pokémon on the screen. He then glanced at Leo and asked, "Lord Leo, can this Pokémon really heal Kaya?"

Leo didn't give a definitive answer. Instead, he explained, "Guaranteeing a 100% cure is beyond even a dimensional merchant's ability... But given Miss Kaya's condition and your current resources, this Miltank is the best option."

He added, "However, to maximize its healing properties, Miltank needs to be fed with a special type of grass, which isn't cheap. The cost for a year's supply is around 400 points—roughly 20 million Baileys."

Kaya's father hesitated momentarily upon hearing the cost, but then he nodded decisively. "It doesn't matter! I trust your judgement, Lord Leo. I want this Miltank!"

He believed that a Pokémon this expensive, with such specific needs, had to possess miraculous abilities.

"Usopp, please help me purchase this Miltank and 200 points worth of the special fodder."

Since all the points were in Usopp's possession, the purchase required his approval.

"I understand," Usopp replied, turning to Leo. "Lord Leo, please exchange for the Miltank."

"As you wish," Leo said with a calm smile as he summoned Miltank's Poké Ball from the system. "I'll also arrange for the fodder to be delivered to your warehouse."

"Thank you, Lord Leo!" Kaya's father accepted the Poké Ball as if it were a precious treasure, his eyes filled with hope. This Pokémon might be the key to healing Kaya's fragile body, and he was optimistic about the powers from another world.

Suppressing his excitement, Kaya's father turned to Usopp, who was equally eager. According to their agreement, the next 1,000 points would be at Usopp's disposal.

"Lord Leo, please help me choose a Pokémon that suits me!" Usopp requested.

"Certainly~" Leo replied, snapping his fingers.

Immediately, the screen displayed the information of a Pokémon that Leo had carefully selected just for Usopp.
