Wu leapt off the guardrails of the Alcor, landing with a hard thump on the rickety wooden pier of the Nation of Electro's central harbor. He let out a tense breath, his tail twitching once as his ki instinctively plummeted, less than a gentle hum around his body.
The reason he had suppressed himself so was quite easy for him to see.
Emanating from the central palace of Inazuma City was a pressure so overbearing and all-encompassing that it rested over the entire central island of the Inazuman archipelago. A massive eye gazing down on every soul in the nation. Son Wu knew, without a single iota of a doubt, that if he raised his ki for a single moment, the god up there would be on him in an instant.
"Talk about oppressive..." Wu sighed, a single drop of breath on his brow. This kind of all-encompassing, crushing, and immovable force...

"And who are you to represent my people, boy...!?"

Wu shuddered as a flash of Vegeta's scowl burned across his mind's eye.
He closed his eyes and shook his head.
He would try not to foolishly challenge this god.
Wu watched as the crew of the Alcor packed and unloaded cargo, watching as Beidou chatted with the representatives that had come to meet her. Some lingo and pleasantries were passed between them, but it was clear that there was no true rapport to be found between them.
Wu gazed down towards the water, the flat, rippling surface made a dull grey due to the ever present, choking storm that surrounded the island's outermost waters. His eyes locked on to a small school of large pufferfish, the green and brown fish floating about just underneath the surface.
Here he was. Inazuma.

Team Three Star packed their things and prepared to set out.
"I think we should try to get a look around, and get our bearings before we try and head anywhere..." Aether said.
"Sure." Wu mumbled.
"Great idea, traveler!" Paimon chirped. "Let's-"
"Sir Son, please come with me. I was tasked by the head of the Yashiro Commission to bring you to her estate." Kazuha said, falling into step besides Wu.
"Wait, WHAT!?" Paimon cried.
"The stories of your strength have spread far and wide, and the lady Kamisato wishes to see you for herself." Kazuha said.
"...Will there be food?" Wu asked.
"Lots and lots." Kazuha said.
...
"Whelp, you got me..." Wu chuckled. "Alright, catch you two later!" Wu said, waving bye to his two companions as he was led away by Kazuha.
"Wha!? What about the Traveler and Paimon!? We're heroes too!!! Grrr...!" Paimon seethed.
"Heheh... Can't say he hasn't earned the higher reputation..." Aether sighed.

Chomp!

Slrp...!
Gulp...!
