The Land Of Waves was an island not too far from the Land Of Fire, unlike the Land of Fire that had a Ninja village, The Land of waves didn't have any sort of Military power whatsoever.
This made it very easy for Gato to take over the place, After all, He had a lot of goons and the residents of the Land Of Waves were fishermen so they didn't have combat experience.
…
The boat pulled to a stop at the port of the Land Of Waves and I gave a small smile as we finally reached there.
Now this was where things were going to get ugly, Everything we've experienced up until now was smooth sailing- I had to prepare myself to unleash everything I had upon Zabuza and Haku.
"This is as far as I go," The sailor said, parking his small boat beside the port and we got out of it- After Tazuna had explained everything, Kakashi agreed to protect him until the bridge was finished.
"You've already gone really far, Brother," Tazuna said and the sailor gave Tazuna a small nod, after we got out, He drove off rather quickly as if trying to leave the Land of waves behind him.
I wouldn't blame him for his conduct as the Land of waves had many goons patrolling in the area, If he got sighted by one of them, He was sure to be killed for transporting Tazuna back to the Land of waves.
"This is the Land Of Waves," Tazuna said and waved his hands almost as if he was presenting a holy land… Sadly, this land had zero to offer.
Hanabi let out an exasperated sigh.
"I hope we can get this mission done and over with though," Hanabi said, Her Byakugan activated, "I can't detect Chakra signatures in 300 meters from here,"
Good, She has her Byakugan activated and now she can scout about 300 meters ahead.
Focusing my Sensing range and expanding my Chakra into the forest, I did more than sense enemies- At that moment, I was looking for irregular chakra signatures.
And I found nothing, but they were inside the forest right? It only made sense that an experienced Shinobi like Zabuza had the ability to cloak Chakra against Sensor Ninja unless he wouldn't have been able to evade the Hidden Mist for so long and it made more sense that he taught Haku such a skill.
But being able to bypass even the Byakugan- Now that was something I had to learn.
"We should rest here first before entering the forest," I suggested, "Once we're in the forest, We will be walking into a trap made by Enemy Ninja,"
Kakashi nodded and relayed the idea to the team and after many grunts from Hanabi, We took a break.
I sat on the ground and folded my hands, sitting in a meditative posture. Sure I have the Gates but I need more power.
I focused on entering the Mindscape and failed to notice Hanabi's questioning gaze.
…
I could hear the rushing sound of water…
Even with my eyes closed, I could feel the incredible chakra permeating in the air…
My eyes snapped open and I stared ahead, finding myself in front of a gate- no it was more like a prison.
Inside this prison was the Kyuubi… and the chakra emanating from this being was nothing short of godly.
And the shocking part of it is that this is only the Yang half of the Kyuubi!
I steeled myself as I heard the dreadful laughter of the Kyuubi, It was mocking me.
"I have come to bargain!" I exclaimed, my voice filling the chamber.
Crimson eyes locked onto my figure and a chuckle echoed through the chamber.
"Bargain, huh?" He asked.
"Well, I can understand that you get bored sitting here all day doing nothing," I said, "So how about we make a bargain, I can open that seal a little and give it a little tweak to give you access to my memories. In exchange for that, I want to be able to draw upon your power whenever I want,"
I had the upper hand in such a deal… The seal was fully engraved and sat in it's full glory, There was no way the Kyuubi could have access to any of my memories or even have access to see what I was doing.
The Kyuubi looked at me with shocked eyes.
"And what if I refuse?" He asked, his voice booming.
"Then I can leave," I replied, "Besides I have the gates of opening, I'm sure they are more powerful than anything you have to offer,"
His eyes flew open as I gave a small chuckle.
"Fine, I accept," He said, "To gain access to my chakra, You have to open the seal a little,"
Just like I predicted…
As I got closer to the prison, The figure of the Kyuubi was revealed more and more. It looked more dreadful than it's anime counterpart and of course, The concentration of chakra was getting more and more- My mind was getting fuzzy a bit.
As for tweaking the seal, I had clones working over the last month on Fuinjutsu and just adding a little bit of Kanji to this seal wouldn't be much work.
I slowly pulled off the paper, only stopping when it was halfway off, Some of his Chakra started seeping out of the seal slowly.
I reached into my pocket, pulling out a brush and dabbing some Kanji on the side of the seal.
"I hope you have a good day, Kurama," I said and faded right before his very eyes.
…
There wasn't much change to my body in the Physical world but I felt like I could draw upon the Kyuubi's chakra at will.
Now I can go into the One Tail form…
I did the seal and created a Shadow clone, I gave him a small nod and he jumped onto a tree.
It was following the mission- A single mission that would change the fight against Zabuza drastically.
'Get Haku' was his goal.
