The Sampan quietly sailed through the harbor, stopping underneath a stone bridge. Daiyu and the Five leaped up and began scaling up the wall. Po tried, but failed a couple of times, before joining them on top of a rooftop, overlooking the city streets.
"Oh, how I've missed the solid, stable ground." Daiyu mumbled relieved as she briefly gave the roof tile a peck, before earning a smug grin from both Monkey and Mantis.
The palace tower could be seen far in the distance, meaning it must be at least a couple of miles.
"That must be Shen's palace, on the other side of the city." Tigress said as she and the rest kept a low profile on the roof, knowing there was still a chance they could be spotted.
"Alright! We'll march into the palace and proclaim: We are the Dragon Warrior and the Furious Five and we are here to bring you to justice!" Po exclaimed as he went to leap off the roof.
"Hey!"
Mantis and Daiyu immediately grabbed Po's ankles and stopped him from leaping further, making him crash back into the roof as they quickly pulled him back out of sight.
"What are you doing? This place is crawling with wolves." Mantis whispered as he and the others peered over the roof. And indeed, there were a lot of wolf soldiers in every street and corner of the city.
"Hey, isn't that the guy who hammered you in the face?" Crane asked, gesturing down towards the Boss Wolf, who smacked a bewildered pig on the head as he passed by.
Po and Daiyu both scowled at the wolf.
"I do not like that guy." Po sneered.
"Me neither." Daiyu nodded. "He called me a kitten, flirted with me and punched me in the... that area of my chest."
"He did what? What did he do? What did he call you?!" Crane asked in a sudden, angry tone, Tigress then placed her hand on Po's shoulder and said.
"We need to get to that tower without being spotted by those wolves."
"Got it. Stealth mode..." Po whispered as they slowly creeped down from the rooftop. Po attempted to sneak through the streets as he briefly spotted Daiyu and the Five leaping over the rooftops.
While doing so, Daiyu kept hearing Crane mumbling and cursing under his breath, mostly about how he was going to kick that Boss Wolf's butt, but it was way too quiet for Daiyu to actually clarify that.
"Crane, what are you even saying?" Daiyu asked, making Crane gulp and stammer.
"Uh, um. I'm saying that the sky is beautifully clear, just too bad you can't see it. With your, uh, y'know... your blindness."
Daiyu looked at Crane with a deadpanned face, clearly unamused as she cocked her eyebrow at him. Crane chuckled awkwardly, until they stopped on a rooftop and Tigress asked.
"Where's Po?"
"How can you lose a guy that big?" Mantis asked, all of them scanning the streets to find Po.
It wasn't long before they spotted a dragon costume with panda legs clumsily making his way down the street. Tigress covered her eyes in embarrassment as Daiyu cussed under her breath while the others were gobsmacked at the sight of it.
On the street, Po knocked a huge lantern into a firework stall. Sparkling, fiery chaos erupted in seconds. Daiyu and The Five jumped down to ground level as Po passed by, looking for his friends.
"Guys! Guys?" Po called out, until Monkey suddenly appeared beneath the costume.
"Hey, Po-..."
Startled, Po instinctively backhanded Monkey as the rest joined him beneath the costume.
