After leading everyone to the residential zone to choose their houses, Dak noticed that although they were all from Water 7, they didn't cluster together.
Those who were close chose houses nearby, while those who weren't as familiar picked homes farther apart.
Everyone seemed quite satisfied with their new homes, especially those who weren't well-off to begin with. To them, these three-story villas were like mansions, and their joy was evident.
As night fell, Dak decided not to tire them out any further and returned to the breeding shop to rest.
The next day, he planned to create some stores based on these people's professions, helping them prepare for their new lives.
Additionally, he needed to set up a friendly shop where they could purchase daily necessities.
For the 1,500 reserve members, their current task was to take care of their Pokémon partners until they were no longer in their infancy.
Once their Pokémon reached a more mature stage, these members could be assigned to various tasks and possibly stationed at different branches.
Their future roles would be divided into specific tasks, such as inspection and security, but this was dependent on three conditions:
1. Pokémon must mature beyond infancy.
2. The branches must be established.
3. Branch managers must be found.
The next morning, Dak left his room early and headed to Pokémon Island. He aimed to set the overall layout of Alliance City, with finer details to be adjusted later.
The most critical buildings were the Pokémon Center and the friendly shop. Any city in the Pokémon world would be incomplete without these key facilities.
Both the Pokémon Center and the friendly shop were exchanged from the miracle shop in their largest forms. Such buildings typically appeared in the largest cities and league headquarters.
These were not simple rectangular buildings but complex structures.
Each building cost Dak 10,000 miracle coins, reflecting their grand and luxurious designs.
The interior areas were pre-configured, requiring Dak only to add equipment as needed.
The Pokémon Center was placed near the league base, close to the western side of the battle competition arena. Its roof bore a red and white Poké Ball symbol.
The friendly shop was situated on the opposite side, near the future site of the coordination competition arena. Its roof had a blue and white Poké Ball symbol.
"Sigh, I need to hire some medical staff. It looks like a trip to Drum Island is in order. And for the friendly shop, I'll need to recruit some employees, possibly from the families of the staff," Dak thought.
Among the employees' families, some might be looking for work, making them suitable candidates for positions in the friendly shop.
As Dak surveyed the towering buildings, a new problem dawned on him.
The island needed a unified currency.
"We'll handle the currency exchange tomorrow," Dak decided.
He had already planned the exchange rates and the new currency name: Poké Coins, with basic units of copper, silver, and gold.
1 miracle coin = 1 gold = 100 silver = 10,000 copper = 10,000 berries.
Given the current wealth of Pokémon Island residents, most would have only a few dozen gold coins, with wealthier individuals possibly possessing up to a thousand.
Daily transactions would likely use copper and silver units.
Pokémon Island would primarily use "virtual currency" and mobile payments. Residents' IDs would function as their bank cards for transactions and savings, with a set payment password during currency exchange.
With the Pokémon Center and friendly shop in place, Dak turned to the residents' quality of life, which would also impact future students and tourists.
In the city center, Dak designated a large area for various shops.
First, he spent 50,000 miracle coins to create a Pokémon Park in the very center.
The park's core featured a clear lake, ideal for relaxation and scenic views, with safety signs warning of deep water.
Surrounding the lake was a small park filled with diverse plants, seating, and public exercise equipment, perfect for evening strolls or student dates.
Outside the park was another ring.
This ring would host shops where families could work. Dak had already set up numerous empty buildings of various types.
North of the park was the entertainment district.
This area would include amusement parks, battle arenas, arcades, and eventually hotels, making it a hotspot for students and couples.
South of the park was the food street.
As the name suggested, this area would offer various delicacies. In the future, only renowned dishes from different worlds, like Water 7's aqua meat and Konoha's Ichiraku Ramen, would be available here.
West of the park was the shopping district.
This street would house jewelry, stationery, clothing, electronics, furniture stores, and more.
East of the park was the leisure district.
This area catered to quieter individuals, including cafes, libraries, gyms, and other serene spots.
After a day's work, Dak had set up these areas.
Creating such a vast region cost Dak 250,000 miracle coins, nearly matching the residential and farming zones' expenses.
The major cost was transforming the terrain: converting flat grasslands to lakes, planting beautiful flora, and paving walkways.
These investments would eventually pay off.
Unlike residential houses, these shops belonged to and would always belong to the Pokémon Alliance. To open a store, one had to rent the space.
Alliance City was destined to be the central hub of Pokémon Island, akin to the capital in Dak's previous world.
Residents, having finished settling into their new homes, watched Dak create buildings and facilities in awe. Some even knelt, regarding him as a deity.
In a way, they weren't wrong.
On Pokémon Island, the true deities would undoubtedly be Giratina, Darkrai, and others. As time passed and these Pokémon appeared less frequently, they would become legends.
The island would bear their marks, with more people worshiping them, similar to the Pokémon world's history.
Dak anticipated that one day he would grow tired of being the league leader and choose a successor. Maybe then, Naruto's goal would shift from being Hokage to being the league leader.
From that moment, residents began to speculate about Dak's identity. Initially seen as a powerful human like Whitebeard, Dak was now revered as a divine being.
The more they thought this way, the more convinced they became.
Someone who commanded god-like Pokémon had to be a god himself.
Dak didn't bother correcting these misconceptions, unsure how to explain his actions. Letting them misunderstand seemed simpler.
In the future, he might be seen as the Arceus of Pokémon Island.
For now, Dak didn't want to spend brainpower on distant matters.
After briefly introducing the new areas to the residents, Dak departed.
Signs at each intersection would indicate the street names, so he wasn't worried about confusion.
People began exploring, discussing which locations would be best for their future shops.
