Chapter 9: Home and Pets!

The capital was filled with a joyous atmosphere, and the alleys were lined with shops selling amusement park merchandise. Strolling through the streets of the Coaster Capital, Leo's face was brimming with unprecedented excitement as he checked the balance of points in the system.

Forty-five thousand points! What an incredible amount! If exchanged for superpowers and weapons, he could potentially take on formidable foes like Kaido and Whitebeard. Yet, Leo found more pleasure in his current role as a transcendent businessman from another world.

Walking across the globe, interacting with diverse people, and guiding them to spend extravagantly—wasn't this more thrilling than aspiring to become the Pirate King?

"I wonder when I'll encounter another lucrative opportunity like King Joffrey..." Leo mused, a genuine smile on his face as he anticipated the future.

Instead of exchanging for mythical creatures and combat prowess, Leo now had different plans for utilising these points.

...

...

Three days later, at Coaster King Island in Beach Paradise City—one of the port cities of the Coast Kingdom. Due to its proximity to the coast, the city embraced a beach paradise style, complete with the essential element of bikinis.

Over the past three days, Leo had indulged in the sights of this city, especially at the milk tea shop near his hotel. Each time he passed by, he couldn't resist the temptation for a refreshing drink.

And today, after exhausting himself with various activities, Leo decided to embark on his next venture. Seated in the restaurant of a high-end hotel, savoring sea beast skewers, he perused product information on Rotom, contemplating his residence in the pirate world.

"After all, being a Pokémon merchant from another world, living in a hotel like this isn't a feasible option... How about owning a boat and sailing as a merchant?"

But Leo quickly dismissed the idea, recognizing his aversion to traditional ships due to seasickness and his reluctance to deal with the associated responsibilities.

Abandoning conventional ships, Leo considered technological options but found them lacking. "These airships and cruise ships require manual refueling, which is too advanced... Aren't there any solar-powered means of transportation that can last indefinitely?"

Perusing through the information, Leo felt dissatisfied. "It would be perfect if there were something as convenient as a Dragon Ball capsule, allowing me to live anywhere and anytime."

He pondered why the Pokémon world, with its invention of Poké Balls, lacked space-related tools. Suddenly, a realization struck him. "That's it! There's a way!"

"I wonder if I can achieve it with my current points... Let's give it a try!"

After completing a meal of barbecue, Leo entered the system interface and began searching the mall. Suddenly, the system presented him with a multitude of product pictures, including one depicting a massive whale-shaped Pokémon with light blue skin—the Roaring Whale King(Wailord).

"This Wailord could potentially transform into a colossal deep-sea creature like Laboon..."

With an expectant smile, Leo contemplated using the Roaring Whale King as both a means of transportation and accommodation, solving two problems at once.

In his vision, Leo imagined a legendary tale on the sea—inside the abyssal beast, a mysterious businessman from another world resides! And thus, the Wailord became an intriguing part of his plans for an extraordinary life on the seas.

Not just handsome, but quite impressive indeed! Leo believed that investing more points in a do-it-yourself operation would lead to an even higher quality of life.

"But this is all trivial. Isn't making money just for enjoying showing off? Wealth and honour do not return home, just like walking in a brocade at night! Just do what comes to mind!"

Leo immediately started operating in the system. After searching for a long time, he finally selected the largest Wailord, which is 30 meters high and about 400 meters long. This may be the king of the Wailord family. Of course, the price is also very high, costing 10,000 points! Obviously, in addition to its huge size, this Wailord also possesses considerable strength.

"Then I choose you!" Leo didn't hesitate at all. Money comes and goes quickly. In the blink of an eye, 10,000 points were spent. There are 35,000 points left in the system. Of course, he can't keep the money.

With a length of only 400 meters, it obviously cannot satisfy Leo's vanity. You must know that the Grand Line has a huge goldfish that is nearly 1,000 meters tall and feeds on the islands... What's more, in the New World, there is also a thousand-year-old elephant that is 10,000 meters high and towers into the sky.

"There is no need to think about ten thousand meters, but as a businessman from another world, I still have to work hard..." After thinking about it, Leo spent 10,000 points again and purchased a Pokémon in the system that can grow in size using ancient power.

This is not the kind of Gigantamax that can only last for a few minutes, but a unique power that belongs to Pokémon in ancient times. The Giant Jigglypuff and Giant Gengar that appear in the anime plot are Pokémon that have been sleeping in ancient times to this day. Ten thousand points of ancient power were blessed on the body of the Wailord, and the body of the Wailord in the system space instantly changed.

Mysterious black ripples seeped out from under the skin of the Wailord, adding a strange sense of oppression to its dull face. Under the influence of the ancient power, its body directly expanded 10 times, reaching a height of 300 meters and a body length of 4,000 meters. Although it was still not as good as the goldfish that could eat the island, after all, there were still many places where points would be used later, so Leo decided to leave it at that for now.

Under the terrifying weight of the Wailord, he had to spend another 1,000 points to customize a special Poké Ball that could properly place the Wailord.

"Well, the exterior is finished, and the next step is the internal structure..." Looking at the handsome appearance of the Wailord in the system, Leo showed a satisfied smile.

But when it was his turn to design the interior space, he began to have difficulties again. If the interior of the Wailord is designed to look like Laboon, it may not cost many points, but once the Wailord turns over or shakes, he will not feel the consequences of an 18-magnitude earthquake inside.

After thinking about it, he didn't save anything. He used the remaining 20,000 points to DIY an extra-dimensional space and stored it in the body of the Wailord. This space is not big; it is about the size of two basketball courts, about 500 square meters, and the height is 4 meters. It is quite large when used as a house. But compared to the space inside Laboon's body, it's not even close.

"The current points can only do this, and I can gradually upgrade in the future." Leo didn't dwell too much. Next, he decorated his new home. The ability to freely adjust the sky according to the outside time and even imitate the feeling of sunshine, 200 points; a simple but comfortable living environment and luxurious furniture, 100 points; 5 home appliances Rotom, washing machine Rotom, dishwasher Rotom, water heater Rotom, refrigerator Rotom, hair dryer Rotom, 500 points.

Leo didn't do anything in the kitchen. Anyway, he could redeem the prepared meals directly from the system, which was clean and hygienic. After spending a total of 41,800 points, Leo finally decorated his car and residence. The points that were 45,000 just now shrank to 3,200 in an instant.

"We've come here and all so why not... Exchange myself for another Pokémon?" Seeing that there were only a few points left, Leo decided to just spend all the points without doing anything else! As soon as his thoughts flashed, he immediately said to the computer Rotom: "Rotom, help me check, what are the Eevees in the system that are more cost-effective?"

Ever since he played the game, he has always wanted to have an Eevee of his own. He had no chance or points before, but it was rare that he was so excited today, so he decided to get there right away! "Please wait a moment, Master!" Computer Rotom's eyes flashed with blue light, and he quickly searched.

At the top of the screen, pictures of three Eevees instantly appeared. Rotom introduced them one by one: "Master, these are the three most expensive Eevees in the system. Their price tags are 5,000 points, 4,000 points, 3,000 points, respectively..." 

"The first one is the Rockets' experiment. The product can freely change into three forms: Fire Pokémon, Water Pokémon, and Thunder Pokémon..." 

"The second one is also an experimental product of Team Rocket. It can sacrifice its vitality and enter the dark form of rampage. After going berserk, it loses its mind and has great strength as its amplitude increases." 

"The third one is an ordinary Eevee that was just born. It has a strong talent and is worth cultivating."

"Oh!?" Leo exclaimed, "It was worth 3,000 points just after it was born..." His eyes immediately focused on the third Eevee.

Not to mention that he couldn't afford to redeem the first two, just the fact that they were experimental products made Leo very resistant. "How dare you use the lovely Eevee for experiments, Sakaki, you will stay in the system for the rest of your life!" 

After cursing the bad guy, with a thought, a cute little brown guy instantly appeared on Leo's legs.

He touched the fluffy Eevee excitedly and felt instantly healed. Little Eevee seemed to be sleeping before entering the system and was unusually quiet. When it felt being touched, its ears immediately moved cutely, its small eyes slowly opened, and met Leo's eyes. 

Confused, it tilted its little head and shouted in a sweet voice: "Eevee~?"
