BoBoiBoy POV

I stretched myself, then gaze towards the dock. We've arrived at our next nation for the journey. Inazuma, Nation of Eternity.

Before we even on the ship, we both meet Kazuha, a wanderer from Inazuma. And let me tell you, he spoke as if there's flower came out.

As soon we stop at the dock, the three of us walked behind Beidou, the Captain of the Crux. The scenery of Inazuma from the dock alone is magnificent.

"Ahoy there!"

" So, you finally made it

" So, you finally made it. You sure kept me waiting, Captain," a male with blonde hair spoke to Beidou, then looked at us " And it appears we have a couple of stoways... or perhaps I should say— honored guest,".

  Paimon exclaimed" Hey! Shush!"." You can blame your Almighty Shogun. The tempest around Inazuma have been growing all the more fierce lately," the Captain state, resting her left hands on her hips.

" Though the fleet was fully up to the challenge, the inclement weather still caused some delay," {Beidou}

Beidou turn to us, hand gestures towards the male " Now then, let me introduce everyone. This is Thoma, a trade partner that I've gotten to know recently,"." Heh, you don't know how long I've been waiting to see you," Thoma smile.

" Thoma, these three are—," {Beidou}

" No need for introductions, their reputation precedes them. Seems even the stormy seas can't keep rumors of these outlanders' sterling deeds at bay," {Thoma}

I lean towards Aether " This place is shut down from the world, how did they know us?" Whisper. Aether shrugged, then looked at Thoma." Nice to meet you, Thoma,".

" Hehe, it's sure nice to hear you say that~," Paimon smile. Beidou crossed her arms " Ha, with any luck, it'll give you a head start here. Aether, BoBoiBoy, Thomas's resided on Ritou for quite some time now. It wouldn't be going too far to say he's the fixer around these parts,".

Beidou continue with confidence" If you run into any problems here, just talk to Thoma. But if he tries to pull any moves on you, I'll be sure to deal with him personally the next time I'm around,".

" Hehehe, no need to worry. I'm sure we'll get along just fine," {Thoma}

" Good. Then if it's all settled. I'll be going. I wouldn't want to be caught with my sails down here, I do have a wanted fugitive on board, after all," {Beidou}

Paimon's eye wide, as she look at us " Oh, right. Kazuha....,"."Until next time, Travelers. Remember to give it your all, no matter what perilous "storms" you may encounter,".

" We got this," {Aether}

" Take care, Beidou,"

" Fair seas, Captain Beidou! Bye–bye!" {Paimon}

No One POV

  Thoma took the new traveler to border checkpoints. For BoBoiBoy, it's like an immigrant things, so he has no issue to compalin about this.

There, they meet a lady name Kageyama " Hello. Please state your name, identity, and the purpose of your visit. Oh, except you Thoma,".

" You must be...new here," {Kageyama}

'is it just me...or she looks annoyed with us?' {BoBoiBoy}

Kageyama continue" Excuse me? Please provide the information requested, and also declare any goods you are carrying with you,"." We are here to find my sister," Aether straight to the point.

" Oh? Well, I'm sorry. We cannot approve entry for purely personal reason. So, unless you have a valid reason for visiting in accordance with the rules...," {Kageyama}

" Um... Uh... w—we—uh," {Paimon}

Kageyama sighed " My apologies, but I'll have to ask you to—,"." Here are their entry papers, for your kind perusal," Thoma handed few documents, saving both Aether and BoBoiBoy.

" What!? Ugh, take your time! No rush or anything!" {Paimon}

" Haha. I just wanted to see you'd say...sorry about that,". {Thoma}

Kageyama examine the documents, state "...I see, okay. Your papers are all in order. Welcome to Ritou,"." Pheeeew...," Paimon relief, then asked Thoma " So, where do we go next?".

" The Outlander Affairs Agency. They only check entry permits here. If you want to remain on Ritou, there's a process you have to go through with them," {Thoma}

" Sheesh, so it is super strict, just like everyone says," {Paimon}

BoBoiBoy shrugged " It's a basic immigration in this situation. I can understand why,"." Well, let's not forget that to everyday folk in Inazuma, people from everywhere else are referred to as 'Outsiders',". Thoma explain.

" As the word suggest, outlanders aren't very welcome in Inazuma with the Sakoku Decree in force. Not even on Ritou, where they've established an Outsider Settlement," {Thoma}

" My journey must go on," {Aether}

  BoBoiBoy pat Aether shoulder, smile to him " Aether's right. We're not here in Inazuma for nothing,"." Hehe, I like how you think. I've got a feeling we're going to get along very well," Thoma smile.

" Now, let's head over to the Outlander Affairs Agency,"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Outlander Affairs Agency....

The inspector, Yurika spoke " You've completed the entry procedures, yez? And now you want to apply for residency? Three of you?"." Yes please!" Paimon state, while Aether nod.

" Okay. The processing fee will be three million Mora," {Yurika}

Aether, and BoBoiBoy shocked with wided eyes, as well Paimon as she spoke " T—Three million! For a processing fee? Are you serious!?"." Astaghfirullah hal azim, that's so expensive!!" BoBoiBoy istighfar with shocked.

" That's right, one million per applicant, which makes three million total. Don't worry, you can trust my math," {Yurika}

'I may bad at math, but I can calmly said this a scam. Geez...' {BoBoiBoy thought}

Paimon shooked her head " Paimon wasn't so much questioning your math as...Ugh...,"." Hahaha... Ma'am, these two here are good friends of mine. I think you'll find I'm one face you recognize,". Thoma exclaimed.

" Ah, Mr. Thoma, it's you. By way of courtesy, allow me to reduce it to 400,000 Mora total," {Yurika}

" That is a major discount," {Aether}

  Thoma smile " Thank you ever so much, Miss Yurika. But as this is just a processing fee... I think 600 Mora should cover if if I'm paying on their behalf? I'll treat you to dinner, too. How does that sounds?"

' What kind of negotiations I'm witnessing right now?' {Solar}

'Ohhh! Free dinner! Sounds good!' {Thorn}

  Paimon looked at Thoma disbelief " That's not how you haggle! By all means, bargain the price down, but—,"." Alright then. As you wish, Mr. Thoma. I will make a record," Yurika took the offer on the spots.

" Hee–hee, much obliged," {Thoma}

' ughh...so much for entering a nation...' {BoBoiBoy}
