Who is that portal guy?!

We set sail with me relaxing on the deck with my summons.

"And so I used my humiliation attack with the baton on the fat bastard. Don't go listening to Buggs, okay?" I explain to them.

"Oh! So you didn't like him or anything! Good!" Siren smiled happily with the misunderstanding cleared.

"Well, now I know that at least someone is similar to me~ Call me next time, I will help!" Sona smiles sadistically.

"Speaking of Buggs, where did you leave him, Lynx? Did you grill him or something?" Lola is a bit worried since she can't find him.

"Ah that little bastard was able to hide somewhere and I got bored looking for him. Well, if he jumped ship it's his own fault~" Lynx

"... Well one idiot less to take care of I guess?" Lola asks herself uncertainty.

'Damn you bastards! I will get you for this!' Buggs curses at us while he is holding on to the rudder of the Merry.

…

As we keep sailing towards the location of the weirdo we come across a big ship with an orangutan ship figurehead.

"Cancel the search, utan divers! Woohoo!" Shoujou

"Ah, we came across another weirdo. But I don't think it's the one we are looking for, Usopp." Luffy

"Looking at the ape motive on the ship and that they are on this island, it must be another salvager like Masira." Marianne

"Oh, just what we need… Another weird monkey…" Nami facepalms.

"Oh it's not that bad, at least there won't be trouble with them." Robin smiles.

"Hey, you there! This is no time for small talk! Woohoo! Hmph, I wondered who it was. You gave me a scare." Shoujou

"You look pretty smart. What species are you?" Luffy looks at Shoujou.

"Human, fool!" Shoujou

"Really? You look like some orangutan mink, aren't you?" Annie asks.

'Well I did tell her about some races with bedtime stories. But she picked it up quite fast.' Lynx

"Hey, you guys! Don't go upsetting the boss!" His minions.

"Nevermind, nevermind. You appear to be pirates. Have you heard the news? Someone defeated Sir Crocodile, one of the seven warlords of the sea. And due to my great abilities, I'm probably going to take his place. I can't wait, I'm so anxious." Shoujou

"That's stupid." Luffy answers simply.

"You are not amazed?!" Shoujou

"Hey! You're talking to the big boss here!" Minions

"Nevermind, nevermind. Goodness, talking to you is nerve-wrecking. Now listen, if you pass through the tunnel of my anger, you will come to a sea of blood." Shoujou

Annie facepalms looking at the weakling.

"Heh, can't take the low intelligence of the world's inhabitants anymore, Annie?" Sona

"You have no idea… *Sigh*" Annie

"Whatever! We're trying to go somewhere, so move!" Luffy

"You idiot!! The sea here is my territory!! If you want to pass, you have to pay the toll!!" Shoujou yells.

"What's with you idiots and territory? Masira couldn't do anything to us, so why would you?" I am getting kinda bored, since the power level of Paradise mooks has become boring.

"What?! Masira?! What about Masira?!" Shoujou panics.

"Oh we forced him to lead us to Jaya. It was fun!" Lux smiles brightly.

"You forced him?! How dare you do that to my brother!!! This is revenge for Masira!! Sound wave! Havoc sonar!!" Shoujou is first pissed before he starts to screech into a microphone.

Their ship starts to take damage from sound waves, but the sound waves are coming to our ship.

"WHAT A DISGUSTING SOUND!!! GET THE FUCK OUT OF MY FACE!!! CRESCENDO!!!" Sona strikes her zytre, hitting the bastard with her ultimate skill.

The golden soundwave overpowered his screech and blasted him back and also stunning him.

"DON'T YOU EVER DISRESPECT SINGER LIKE THAT AGAIN!!! NOW GET THE FUCK OUT OF OUR WAY!!" Sona harrumps before turning to the crew.

The crew scrambles in fear and quickly moves their ship.

"She seems to really hate bad singers, huh?" Braum nudges me.

"I think hate is an underestimation…" Mikita chimes in beside me.

"Good thing that I don't suck~" I smile at my luck.

…

We made our way from Mock town on the western side of the island to the east side.

"This is the place on the map." Nami

"This is where we'll find… What was his name?" Zoro asks.

"Mont Blanc Cricket." Robin, Marianne and Janna answer at the same time, before looking at each other smiling.

"The man who talks big dreams lives here?" Nami

"WOW!!" Luffy, Usopp and Buggs.

"Oh! You didn't jump ship?" I grab and hold Buggs by his ears and grin.

"... Shit." Buggs realized he fucked up, emerging too soon.

"Don't worry~ I won't do anything to you anymore. But remember, if you pull shit like that again, you will eat your carrots faster through your ass than your mouth." Lynx

"*Gulp* Duly noted…" Buggs swallows his saliva and promises to himself not to mess with me anymore.

"But that's his house?! He must be loaded!!" Chopper gawks.

"Look more closely, you fools." Zoro

"A man of big dreams, eh? Well, he really likes to create an illusion." Sanji

"It looks way too clunky to be real even…" Siren comments.

"? Illusion? Isn't real?" Chopper

"Hey! It's only plywood!" Luffy screams as he launches himself over to the house.

"WHAT?!" Usopp and Buggs.

"Only half a house? What a cheap bastard." Mikita

"Why does he live in such a remote place even?" Sanji

"Apparently he claimed about a huge hoard of gold somewhere on Jaya, but he was so obnoxious about it that they threw him out of town." Zala explains about the rumors.

"Hello, anyone home?" Luffy just walks into the house, not caring about being rude.

"Huh, there's nobody here. HELLO!!" He screams inside the house, searching for Cricket.

I looked around until I found a book outside on a tree stump.

"Here. It's the book of his ancestor and why he is here." I give the book over to Robin.

"Noland the liar?" Robin glances at it.

"That brings back memories- I read it as a kid." Sanji

"You've read this Sanji? But it says it was published in north blue." Nami

"Yeah, I was born in the north blue. Didn't I mention it?" Sanji

"Nope, first time we heard that. We thought you were from east blue too." Usopp

"Does it really matter? Part of us are from the Grandline and even another world." Janna

"True, but anyway. Noland really did exist…" I tell them the short version of the story.

"And the sad part, it wasn't a lie. He only got one thing wrong." Lynx

"What was it?" Robin

"The gold didn't sink into the sea~ But to our destination." I smile at the crew.

*Flump!*

"Hey master! I found someone emerging from the water who wanted to grab me." Siren smiles as we see a buff man with a chestnut on top of his head is splashed on the floor.

"Mont Blanc Cricket I presume? You up for some coffee?" I ask him, coming close.

He spins on the floor and sends a kick towards my face. But I dodge the kick and grab his leg.

"Hey, I was nice. Is this how you welcome guests?" Lynx

"Guests? You just marched to my home and made yourself at home like you own it! The waters here belong to me." Cricket tries to get his leg out of my grip, but can't.

"You're after the gold, aren't you? Then die!" Cricket tries to punch me but I tank it without a problem.

He then pulls out a gun and tries shooting me, but I plug the gun hole with my armament clad finger.

"You won't put a scratch on me with that. Now can we talk like humans or do you want to experience the ultimate humiliation first?" I smile at him.

"TALK!!! TALK FOR THE LOVE OF YOUR ASSHOLE!!!" Buggs screams from behind me, garnering a confused look from Cricket.

He seemed to want to ask about it but then he collapsed to the floor.

"Ok he has diver sickness." I turn towards everyone.

"GET THE DOCTOR!" Chooper panicks.

*Smack!*

"You're the doctor, dumbass!" Lola

…

"Oh, Masira! You're still alive?!" Shoujou

"Of course, what are you talking about?" MAsira

"Nevermind. But what were those gunshots just now?" Shoujou

"I hope the boss is okay." Masira

"BOSS ARE YOU OKAY?!?!" The two burst through the door.

"Shut it you apes! He is sick!!" Annie yells at the two loudmouths.

"Ah sorry mistress!" Masira bows to Annie, not wanting to face her words again.

"What are you doing here?!" Shoujou on the other hand is pissed at Sona.

"I said be quiet ape face!!" Annie yells as Tibbers punches Shoujou away.

Masira just smiles, that he reacted fast enough and was spared.

"What are you grinning about?" Annie stares at him.

"Nothing mistress!" He falls to the floor in fear of getting her mad.

"Ok, that's enough Annie. Masira was nice enough to lead us to Jaya." Braum sighs seeing the poor bastard kneeling in fear.

…

The three monkeys start to hang out outside while we wait for Cricket to recover.

"How can they get so along in such a short time?" Mikita

"They all have monkey brains. Still, better than most of the guys in Mock town though… I wish daddy would allow me to be the giver of the Darwin awards." Annie pouts.

[The Darwin Awards salute the improvement of the human genome by honoring those who accidentally remove themselves from it in a spectacular manner!]

"... I am actually glad that Lynx didn't let you or we might be just leaving lifeless islands behind us…" Marianne glances at Annie.

A bit later Cricket finally wakes up.

"Sorry I attacked you guys. I thought you were after my gold." Cricket

"What?! You have gold?!" Nami

"Don't even think about it." Siren still doesn't like her since she was compared to a banshee.

"What is it you want to ask me?" Crickets lights a smoke.

"We wanna go to the island in the sky! How do we get there?!" Luffy beats me to it.

"A sky island? Harharharharhar! You guys believe that story?!" Cricket laughs his ass off, making Nami almost sledge the lights out of him.

Good thing that Robin held her with her fruit.

"Heh, you say it like it doesn't exist." I smile at him.

"Well there was one man who said it did. But he went down in history as a liar and his descendants have been an object of ridicule ever since. If you want to follow his footsteps to be ridiculed, fine by me." Cricket

"Oh, c'mon. You know he didn't lie. But there was something he was wrong about." I smile at him confidently.

"So you know that we Mont Blanc's don't doubt him. But then what was he wrong about." Cricket gives me a look.

"It didn't sink in the sea. Our destination in the sky is where the gold has disappeared to~" Lynx

"W-what? Then why are you here if you know where it is?!" Cricket looks at me disbelievingly.

"Well, we came here to get you to locate the knock up stream and upgrade our ship for the journey. Oh and I know how the gold ended up there~" Lynx

"... You want to ride the knock up stream? You are insane… But do tell me what happened." Cricket grips the sheet, his muscles tensed.

"Well the knock up stream doesn't have the same position all the time. Jaya was a full island without the sea in the middle before. 'I saw the gold in the right eye of the skull'. You can connect the dots from here. Now, can you tell me where we can find south birds?" Lynx

"! So you're saying!" His face flashes in realization.

"Yup. So now let's get prepared." Lynx

…

In the end as we have two days left we first had a party and bonded with the Mountain monkey alliance. Next day, Masira and Shoujou were put on upgrading our ship, Robin and a few others went to catch the sought bird and some went to gather dirt and put it into sacks.

"Why are we gathering dirt again?" Usopp asks, confused.

"Cause they don't have it up there, numbskull! Land good enough for cultivation is rare up there! With a growing population the land only becomes less fertile and produces less food. While thinking about it… I really need to get myself a teleportation power." I start to think about it.

I walk a bit away and start to think about what I currently need.

'I currently only need some power to get to my summons… Maybe also an inventory for my stuff would be nice. My bow and instruments are always so annoying to carry around. Best teleportation ability I've seen is an interdimensional portal from that guy. And for the battle inventory can only be her~' I smile to myself.

Walking a bit away I start my summoning.

"I summon in my name! Doctor Stephen Strange!" Lynx

But this time to my surprise my lasso reaches into the void and catches nothing. The next moment an orange sparkling portal starts to line out and a man with a red cape walks out.

"So you were the one who wanted to capture me? Who are you and why did you aim for me?" Dr Strange

"Uh… Sorry this is a bit awkward for me. Summoning hasn't failed me yet actually…. But anyway, I am Clawe D Lynx. A pirate with a special ability." I am a bit lost with my ability not capturing someone from another world.

"And your ability is enslaving others across dimensions?" Dr strange raises an eyebrow.

"Yes but actually no. I can use my ability to connect with people that have the ability I want. If we connect, I can summon and unsummon them, while also obtaining their abilities and knowledge if I want to." I explain it as summon-friendly as I can.

"Interesting ability. But can you tell me which ability you wanted?" Dr Strange.

"Your portal creation. This world is massive and it's a pain to travel to my kingdom and other places I have to be. But if you don't want to be my summon, can I at least get a sling ring and manual for portals? I have my own mana to cast." Lynx

"And why should I give them to you?" Dr Strange

"... Because it's better to have me as an ally, than I summon someone else with this ability and come do damage to your world?" I ask.

"... I could also take care of you, to not endanger my world." Dr Strange makes a serious face.

"I am a much harder opponent to face than I seem. But let's just do this. Put a tracking spell on my sling ring, so you can teleport to me and teach me. In return you get my help in fighting evil forces. Sounds like a deal?" I extend my hand.

"That actually sounds tempting, but add a clause where you have to listen to me and not damage anything in my world in that case." Dr Strange

"Make it so I am your ally no matter what and can't be used as a disposable pawn. I won't go destroying stuff just because I can. Also if I am already fighting with someone, I won't be summoned immediately, since it can lead to the death of my family." Lynx

"I guess we have a deal." Dr Strange

"I guess we do!" The both of us shake our hands and some energy escapes his sling ring binding us both with an orange string-

The string wraps around our arms up to our neck, where it makes a black mystical language tattoo.

"Oh! I need to learn this ability as well! I just love making deals and this is perfect for me!" I grin at him.

"I will teach it to you at one point. Now if you excuse me, I have to get a spare sling ring for you. See you in a bit." Dr Strange opens a portal and disappears inside.

"Well this was nice~ I don't even have to waste my energy on binding him!" I smile to myself.

"Now! I summon in my name! Erza Scarlet!" I shout and wait a bit without anything happening.

"Damn it! She must be dodging it, not knowing what it is! I can still feel the lasso chasing her! It was easy with LoL champions since they are used to it, Durin probably thought it was one of the Valar calling for him, while Heph must have been curious and didn't feel threatened as a god. Guess it was time to get Strange's portal ability. I will probably have to go catch other characters myself!" I am annoyed since Erza would fit quite well here and I would get her Re-equip.

"Well let's just go back for now." I return to everyone.

They seemed to have gathered quite a lot of fertile soil and caught a south bird.

"Hey, I got something to ask. Is anyone of my summons willing to stay here with Cricket? I can summon and unsummon you up there to down here and we don't have to haul this dirt up there." Lynx

"I am willing to stay. I don't feel like being shot up 10 kilometers up in the air by a waterspout." Marianne

"NO! LET ME STAY!" Usopp is already grabbing onto my leg in hope.

"... I don't plan to waste my soul energy on you when we can have someone else stay. And didn't you say you wanted to be a brave warrior of the sea? Cowardice is not the way to achieve it." Lynx

Usopp still keeps crying while trying to muster up some courage.

"Now come, we still have a day before the knock up stream erupts. Go help the monkey bros." Lynx
