Capítulo 89: Chapter 89
Actually, Dak doesn't worry much about the character of these people.
After all, they are fairly familiar figures.
Sometimes Dak really admires the insight of Doflamingo and Crocodile.
Impressive indeed.
The Pokémon League wouldn't be possible without the contributions from these two.
No wonder they are leaders; their discerning and ruthless vision has chosen each subordinate well.
First, let's talk about Galdino, Mr. 3, whose record is compellingly notable.
It's hard to say whether this man is lucky or unlucky, always caught up in major events, yet he always plays a unique role, especially during the Summit War.
First, he blocked Magellan's deadly poison wave with his Candle Wall; later, at the risk of his own life, he climbed the execution platform and blocked an attack from Sengoku at a critical moment; and finally, he unlocked the seastone handcuffs of Ace and Marco with his Candle Key.
Before this, in Little Garden, he nearly annihilated the Straw Hat Pirates, pushing Zoro to the brink of cutting off his own feet.
Even without considering Galdino's incredible combat record,
Just the words Mr. 3 said as he fell from the execution platform were enough to change Dak's opinion of him.
"If I say I am here to mourn my deceased comrades, would you laugh at me?"
Although this man is mostly a coward, he has his own survival bottom line.
When Bon Clay alone held back all of Impel Down for them, Galdino thought Bon Clay was doomed to die, so he risked his life to step onto the execution platform, seizing the opportunity to fulfill Bon Clay's 'last wish' to help Luffy save Ace.
Now, let's talk about Miss Valentine, Mikita.
No, not just her, but the other members of Baroque Works too, none of them would abandon a comrade—of course, this doesn't include Crocodile, who had originally planned to send Bon Clay to eliminate Mr. 3.
After Crocodile's defeat and the disbandment of Baroque Works, when Miss Valentine, Mr. 5, and Miss Goldenweek were safe in Little Garden, they learned that Mr. 3 was being pursued by the Navy on Holiday Island and decisively left Little Garden to rescue him, only to be captured by Hina.
Coincidentally, Bon Clay had just escaped from Hina's custody and immediately returned to rescue them.
In the nick of time, Bon Clay fought the Navy to save them, and then they managed to rescue the imprisoned Miss Doublefinger, Christmas, Mr. 4, and that dog.
As for the outcome of the battle on Holiday Island, Mr. 2 and Mr. 3 were captured, and the rest of Baroque Works members escaped. Later, the two were imprisoned in Impel Down and had no chance to attempt another rescue.
As for Crocodile and Mr. 1, they were captured early in Alabasta.
Knowing all this, Dak believes that Galdino and Mikita are worth developing.
"Robin, go find these two guys, ask them if they want to join the Mystery Hatchery House."
"Eh? Don't we need to observe them for a while?"
Robin was somewhat puzzled.
Monet, Bellamy, and their sisters are just ordinary civilians, unlikely to be any trouble.
But Galdino and Mikita are different, they're from the underworld; even newcomers there might not be good people.
Who else would normally venture into such a place?
These two are not like her, being hunted by the World Government and the Navy.
"Once they're in, you can observe them more closely; I'm counting on you to pay extra attention, Robin."
"Okay."
Robin quite likes this feeling of being needed.
It makes her feel more clearly that she is a part of the Mystery Hatchery House, a companion to everyone.
"Mhm, have them lead a team each, responsible for different shifts. This will help train them. I'm going to the backstreets of Water 7."
"You're going alone?"
"Not exactly, Giratina is here."
Dak shook his head, smiling, and pointed at his shadow.
A pair of deep blue eyes appeared in the shadow, same as Dakrai's, but Dakrai is one-eyed.
Ghost-type Pokémon often have the ability to enter shadows or hide themselves in darkness.
Many ghost types can make their bodies intangible or transparent, easily passing through walls, and even immune to normal and fighting moves.
The best at this is definitely Marshadow, a master of entering shadows.
His special ability is to enter any shadow, imitate the target's actions and strength, understand their feelings and emotions, and then surpass the target.
As for Dakrai.
Dak doesn't understand why a pure Dark-type Pokémon can enter the shadow realm, which is a power Dakrai showed in the original story.
Even without Dakrai's close protection, Giratina can also enter the shadows to protect Dak.
But for Giratina, it seems he doesn't like staying in the shadows.
But there's no choice, the process of Bon Clay delivering the eggs cannot go without Darkrai's protection, and the other staff members are not comfortable letting Dak go alone, so Giratina has to endure this inconvenience for now.
Dak has finished marking the custom eggs; now he just needs to wait for Bon Clay to deliver the eggs and bring back the money to proceed with the next batch of transactions.
Taking advantage of the rare free time now.
Dak plans to go to Water 7 and recruit those unemployed into the Mystery Hatchery House, no, perhaps it's more appropriate to say into the future Pokémon League.
These people won't become core members of the Mystery Hatchery House; core members are those who hold significant power, which are the current members of the house.
The people about to be recruited will become subordinates to Bellamy, becoming part of the League inspection squad.
When Dak left the Mystery Hatchery House, he started wandering the streets of Water 7.
Finding the Franky Family was quite simple.
For example, the Square Sisters by Franky's side were very noticeable, as were Zanbai and the other unemployed hanging around the bar entrance.
There aren't many places with bars in the outer city.
Sure enough, it took Dak less than an hour to find these people.
Of course, it might also be related to the current time, at ten o'clock at night, just when these guys were coming out of the bar.
"Wow hahaha! Today, Zanbai the great also dominated the drinking table."
"What are you talking about, Zanbai, you're not that great, Tamagon was impressive."
A group of staggering people, still holding bottles, hooked arms and walked forward in the alley, heading towards Dak.
Of course, they mean no harm to Dak; they are so drunk they don't even realize there's someone standing in front of them.
But Dak didn't have time to deal with them; his gaze was drawn to the bar door where a pair of sisters were being chased out.
"Hmm, did I remember wrong? It turns out that the Square Sisters didn't have square hairstyles at this time."
Dak's gaze was mainly on Kiwi and Mozu, who currently had explosive hairstyles similar to Brook.
Speaking of which, these sisters are not bad in terms of looks and are quite pretty for women in the pirate world, with some peculiarities probably only in their long noses and hairstyles.
While Dak was pondering what to say to these people, a man came out of the bar, naturally reaching for the waists of the Square Sisters.
"You bastard, what are you doing to our little sisters?! Let go!"
Before Dak could speak, the front-running Zanbai and others immediately became annoyed.
They have good relationships with those they often drink with.
Because they are all unemployed without families and overlooked by the major shipyards, perhaps out of sympathy, the older brothers usually take good care of the young Square Sisters and do not allow other ruffians to bother them.
"Get lost."
Unfortunately, this time the ruffian targeting the Square Sisters seems not to be an ordinary person, quite strong, and quickly beat Zanbai and the others to the ground.
Zanbai and his friends are usually hollowed out by alcohol; relying on their numbers, they can bully some trashy ruffians, but if they encounter someone who can fight, they turn into softies, not to mention they are still groggy now.
These days, the news of the Mystery Hatchery House's opening gradually spread around the neighboring seas.
All sorts of oddities and trash came to Water 7 to watch the excitement, like the one currently before them.
It's worth noting that the Navy might not normally handle such matters, as since the Great Pirate Era began, the number of pirates has surged, and they barely have enough hands to catch them.
"Hey, you."
Dak shook his head, stepped forward, and even without waiting for the ruffian to speak, raised a hand and grasped the other's jaw, instantly knocking the man out with pain.
Now, Dak's strength can't compare with Darkrai, Sceptile, or Giratina.
There are hardly a few people in the entire sea who can match them.
Aside from those three, Dak's strength is absolutely No. 1 in the Mystery Hatchery House; handling such ruffian henchmen is an easy task.
"Thank you, young man."
Zanbai was startled, then leaned on the wall to stand up and thank Dak.
Clearly, this man is not ordinary, and besides necessary thanks, a little more courtesy is due.
At that moment, the Square Sisters also sobered up a bit and came over to bow slightly.
"Why do you want to be a bunch of ruffians?"
Dak looked down at the people lying all over the ground.
Those who couldn't stand up weren't beaten down; they simply hadn't sobered up from the alcohol.
"Uh haha, young man, we're just a bunch of worthless people."
If it were someone else talking to Zanbai like this, he would definitely be annoyed, but facing Dak, he could only laugh awkwardly.
Because Dak had just helped them, and they couldn't beat Dak.
As for being annoyed?
It's not that he thinks the other party is wrong, but he knows the other party is right, and he's a bit resentful because they're just a bunch of ruffians.
A bunch of ruffians who know they are worthless but just can't bring themselves to admit it.
"Then go and become a person of value."

Capítulo 90: Chapter 90

[New Fanfic!!!]
[Starting as a Class 5 Mutant]
It has been three days since Bon Clay started distributing Pokémon eggs. All the eggs with white qualifications have been delivered, and the custom eggs with green qualifications are currently being distributed, with completion expected in two days.
Dak has been busy these days.
Previously, Dak promised Sengoku to help set up a special Pokémon-related force of about thirty people to better care for the hundreds of Pokémon babies that will soon be born.
These thirty people are temporarily divided into three classes:
Logistics class, Biology class, and Research class.
The Logistics class is responsible for ensuring that all necessary supplies for the Pokémon babies are readily available. Dak teaches them about the common necessary items or consumables for all Pokémon species.
As for items specific to each Pokémon species, such as the protective gear for Pawniard, detailed explanations will be given later in Pokémon School.
Given the limited time, the four hundred and ten eggs at the Navy headquarters are expected to hatch in about ten days and are currently kept in the underground research facility at Marineford, heavily guarded.
During this period, either Sengoku, Zephyr, or Kuzan must stay within a three-kilometer radius of the facility.
Biology class.
This class focuses on the nature of Pokémon as creatures, their growth stages, and the relationships between different Pokémon types. It's the class with the heaviest workload and the most complex content to learn.
In the future, this biology class could potentially produce several Pokémon professors, but for now, Dak can only teach some basic knowledge within these ten days.
For example, the eighteen Pokémon types and their characteristics, such as the ghost types' ability to appear and disappear and their mischief, and psychic types' telekinesis and sensitivity to emotions.
He also mentions the evolutionary stages of Pokémon to prevent the Navy from being shocked when a Pokémon evolves and changes form.
As for more detailed and advanced content, there's too much to cover now; it will have to wait until the Pokémon Academy starts.
For instance, the specific conditions some Pokémon need to evolve, different evolutionary paths leading to different forms, Pokémon egg groups and genetics, Pokémon Mega Evolution, Pokémon ancient fossil revival, and the influence of the environment on Pokémon survival.
These topics are beyond Dak's current research; he can only recite the system-provided materials, so he can't possibly teach these to the Navy now.
Their research progress will depend on the development speed of the Mystery Hatchery House.
Research class.
This role is similar to being an assistant to a Pokémon professor in the Pokémon world.
They help Pokémon professors operate various machines and must have a clear understanding of the average physical data of various Pokémon species.
This position doesn't require mastery in one field, but a basic understanding in all areas is necessary, from training to treating Pokémon. They need to keep up with the professors' research and surveys and not be clueless.
Dak's teaching duties began the day Bon Clay started delivering eggs, holding classes at the Navy base next to the Mystery Hatchery House branch.
During this process, Giratina did not provide close protection; Dak did not want to confine this baby dragon in the shadow space, but Sceptile accompanied Dak.
This was useful, as some concepts difficult to explain could be demonstrated through cooperation with Sceptile.
Now, as evening approaches, Dak is teaching the last lesson to the Biology class.
"Pokémon are incredibly emotional magical creatures. Their greatest motivation to do anything is undoubtedly the expectations, trust, and sincere emotional feedback from their trainers. In the world where Pokémon originated, 'the more emotions a trainer invests in their Pokémon, the faster the Pokémon grows stronger'—this has been proven over thousands of years."
Dak is actually voicing his own thoughts.
Whether such conclusions exist in the neighboring Pokémon world is unknown to Dak; even Professor Oak's 'Human-Pokémon Relationship' theme study has yet to yield definite results.
Dak has repeatedly made similar statements in his teachings to these three Navy classes, aiming to encourage the Navy to invest more genuinely in Pokémon.
This can be seen as a form of subtle indoctrination, but Dak believes his words to be factual, and he plans to continue proclaiming this worldwide.
Bond evolution, Mega Evolution, Gratitude moves—there are too many things that can substantiate his claims. The world will eventually discover these patterns; Dak is simply informing them in advance.
Dak's words naturally shock the Navy personnel.
Thousands of years?
How many years of history have they studied?
No one doubts Dak's words; in the realm of Pokémon, Dak is seen as an 'authority' by these people.
After all, Pokémon were brought to this world by Dak, and he holds the strongest Pokémon in his hands. Why wouldn't they believe him?
If you want to question his statements, first you need to raise a Pokémon that can defeat Sceptile, Darkrai, and Giratina, and then present your results for scrutiny.
Dak also briefly mentioned Pokémon lifespan.
"Most Pokémon have very long lifespans. For example, Sceptile here is over two hundred years old, and he's just entering his prime. If you raise a Pokémon well, you might pass it down as a family protector for many generations."
Dak carefully avoided discussing how some attributes, like Dragon or Ghost, can lead to particularly long lives, or how Bug types tend to have shorter lifespans.
He worries this might lead to discrimination against certain types.
This is an inevitable issue, one that even the Pokémon world cannot avoid. Dak can only try to delay its onset.
Moreover, as people discover that Bug types have shorter lifespans, they will also realize another trait: their fast growth cycles. They can reach their final evolutionary stages quicker than any other type, becoming battle-ready very swiftly.
Surely, someone will appreciate the advantages of Bug types and raise a generation of bug catchers.
Conversely, Dragon types are known for being late bloomers.
Of course, this world's people are not yet aware of this; they are still amazed by Sceptile's age.
Each person's heart is stirred.
Having such a Pokémon in one's home, even if one's descendants are not successful, at least one wouldn't have to worry about dying unexpectedly. It's a treasure that can extend a family's longevity.
For most of the nobility, royal families, and hereditary organizations in this world, this concept is incredibly enticing.
As is well known, the world of One Piece incorporates many ideas from the vibrant world of Naruto, including the distinct notion of 'bloodlines.'
Not only in the world of One Piece but also in the neighboring world of Naruto, this concept is even more evident, undisguised from beginning to end. In One Piece, it's initially subtle but becomes more apparent later on.
Thus, those who value lineage and heritage are particularly numerous in these two worlds, and their biggest fear is that their bloodline might end prematurely, leading to the extinction of their clans.
If such a group heard what Dak just proposed, their desire for Pokémon would reach a peak.
"Let's conclude today's lesson here, and tomorrow I'll explain 'Pokémon Evolution'."
Dak noted the late hour and Sceptile's sleepiness, and decided to end the class.
They have all been tired from a day's work.
"Thank you, teacher."
The Navy personnel, respectful like elementary school students, stood and bowed, watching Dak leave the classroom.
Dak, with Sceptile by his side, walked out of the classroom towards the plaza outside the building.
His actions are also a way of accumulating teaching experience; the Pokémon School will soon become a high-priority project for Dak. As the inaugural headmaster, he will often teach classes personally.
Gaining experience now will make it easier when he faces students from across the seas.
"Hey! Zanbai, that's enough for today, you can stop training!"
Dak shouted across the Navy base's plaza.
The dozen or so people undergoing 'recovery training' immediately ceased their exercises and ran towards Dak, crying out.
"Boss! I'm dead tired!"
"Boss, my legs are about to break!"
"Boss!"
These people are the same group Dak recruited from the streets of Water 7 a few days ago, who would later become part of the Franky Family in the original story.
Now, they are undergoing 'recovery training' under Dak's supervision, restoring their bodies hollowed out by alcohol and gathering other unemployed people from Water 7 to train together.
Dak emphasized recruiting unemployed people who hadn't committed serious crimes.
These future members of the Pokémon League's inspection squad, under Bellamy's command, may be weak now, but growing stronger on the Grand Line is not difficult, especially transitioning from ordinary people to somewhat powerful lackeys, which can take less than a few months.
Dak doesn't expect them all to strive for Bellamy's level; reaching the capability described in the original story is sufficient.
The elites of the inspection squad will be gradually found and trained across the seas.
Furthermore, the future inspection squad will not consist solely of humans; Dak plans to pair them with Pokémon partners, which will significantly enhance their combined combat capabilities.
This can be compared to the 'Beast Era' in the Pokémon world.
At that time, wars between nations were fought by armies composed of 'Humans + Pokémon', a model that forged many legendary Pokémon stories. The destructive power of such armies is immense.
'God of the Currents' Lugia, the 'Dragon Trio' Reshiram, Zekrom, and Kyurem—these Pokémon's appearances and retreats are all connected to this era's inter-nation wars.
