Naruto and Akame headed east, towards the great sea that lay between the elemental nations and the other continents of this world. They followed the coast for a while as Naruto carried Akame through the air, eventually landing on a cliff overlooking the sea.

“So... Do you think we'll find him that easily?” Akame asked, somewhat doubtful, given they had infinite liters of water between them and the reborn bijuu.

“It won't be easy, but my haki can reach for miles, it would take days to find him, but we have your sharingan... which can see a huge mass of chakra at some point more efficiently than my haki and after that, it gets easy for me to find.” Naruto explained.

They had received reports that Sanbi was back, sighted by some ships and fishermen in the last few weeks, so this was an opportunity.

Akame nodded as Naruto again lifted her into his arms and they flew to the middle of the sea. Akame activated her mangekyou sharingan, one of her abilities was to see chakra flows from a distance, hundreds of times better than a regular sharingan could.

But it wasn’t an easy task as the sea was vast and they spent the rest of the day searching for the bijuu's chakra and found nothing, eventually returning to the coast to sleep.

“You said you went to the Wind Country... then you passed through the entire Fire Country... you went to Konoha, didn't you?” Akame asked as Naruto glanced at her, setting aside his food and the campfire.

“Yes... I only saw my mother... before moving on.” Naruto said.

“Do you think we'll return to that village in a friendly manner?” Akame asked.

“Honestly, I believe not... I can understand my family welcoming me with open arms, but I doubt the village will feel the same after we left the country.” Naruto said.

“That's true... especially my clan.” Akame spoke.

“Uchihas... so proud...” Naruto said, which brought a silence in the air, the only sound being that of the campfire. Akame looked at Naruto and Naruto did the same.

“Hahahaha.” Both began to laugh at this comment.

“Not all, just most...” Akame murmured with a laugh.

“Let's sleep.” Naruto said as Akame nodded.

While Naruto was sleeping, he felt someone entering his tent and saw Akame sitting on top of him. “What are you doing?” Naruto murmured calmly.

“You said the Uchihas are proud, but I want to give myself to you...” Akame said as she touched Naruto’s clothes to undress him.

“You know we're only 13, right?” Naruto looked up with a raised eyebrow as the girl continued trying to remove his clothes.

“What's the harm, make me your woman, I've been waiting for this for years, you know that.” She spoke with a shy tone.

“It's still too early, Akame, let's leave this for the future. I would take you as my wife.” Naruto spoke calmly, he was in no rush to have an heir, despite a medieval world where some women married in their teens, Naruto wanted to wait a bit longer.

“How long will you make me wait for this?” She asked with a slightly unsatisfied tone...

“We have a whole life ahead of us, Akame, first we need to focus on some important things, like the state of this world and dealing with those people, as we still don't know what their goals are.” Naruto spoke seriously.

“Alright...” Akame responded murmuring, lying down beside Naruto, but she did not leave his tent and Naruto did not mind.

The next day, they resumed their search for the Bijuu. “Be careful not to strain your eyes, you suffered quite a bit when you used your power to save the village.” Naruto said while Akame nodded, being careful not to overdo it.

It was after a few hours heading to another side of the sea they hadn’t investigated yesterday that Akame sensed a huge patch of Chakra deep within a sort of rift in the sea. “There!” She said as Naruto nodded, heading in that direction, beginning to feel it too, at least 3 kilometers away.

“I'm going to need my hands.” Naruto said as Akame nodded, with Naruto releasing her as she landed on the water while he continued to fly, maintaining himself in the air with his body of light.

"Let's see if you'll come at my call." He sighed before releasing his haki, devastating the sea around him while Akame tried to maintain her balance amid the whirlwind created by Naruto.

Naruto's haki swept through all marine life as it plunged deeper into the sea. Meanwhile, Sanbi, who had been sleeping, woke up at that moment due to the disturbance of that strange energy directed at him, as if trying to subjugate him. His eyes immediately flared up in anger and he began to move, advancing towards the surface the next moment.

Naruto felt the bijuu approaching the surface, while Akame got ready. The next moment, a burst of water occurred in front of them, revealing a gigantic shadow showing the three tails, so immense that even its eyes were larger than Naruto.

"You... I remember you." The voice of the bijuu was heard without it moving its mouth.

"So you remember..." Naruto murmured. "Do you hate me?" He quickly asked, curious.

"Dying is not at all pleasant..." Sanbi said while Akame remained in the water, alert for any movement of the Bijuu to attack Naruto and her.

"I imagine, but you were being controlled, thousands would have died, most of whom had nothing to do with the conflict..." Naruto said.

"I know... that damned sharingan..." Sanbi murmured angrily before looking at Naruto with a sinister glint. "What do you want... why are you bothering me in my sleep?" He demanded, ready to fight against this human if he tried to take him again.

"I want to make a deal with you." Naruto began.

"A deal? You humans lock us in vessels, I don't intend to be sealed by you again... you'll feel my wrath!" Sanbi exclaimed as his three tails began to lift behind him, stirring the sea.

"We can make a mutual agreement, trust me, I wouldn’t like to be sealed as you bijuus are by all the villages after Hashirama Senju captured all of you..." Naruto said, after all, he understood very well that being trapped for decades was not pleasant, especially due to the ambition of those who imprisoned them seeking to control the power of the Bijuu.

"A deal? What do you mean, I just want to be free!" Sanbi exclaimed, but became a bit calmer, with a human seeking an agreement with him.

"You know you won't have peace for long... soon they will try to capture you, and I don't mean it's the Mist Village." Naruto said.

"..." Sanbi stared at him, no immediate reaction, the words of this human were not pleasant to hear, but he had to admit that at least someone came to talk to him instead of trying to capture him immediately, especially someone with the power to kill him as he did over a year ago.

"I don't need anyone, I can protect myself" Sanbi was stubborn not wanting to lose his freedom even if he had to fight for his life for it.

Naruto sighed and looked at him seriously while jumping forward and calmly landing in front of his gigantic eyes, with the three tails oddly letting Naruto approach.

"Instead of becoming enemies, we can be allies." Naruto said looking into his eyes seriously.

"How could I, be an ally to a human?" Sanbi mocked Naruto.

"How about you rejoin the Mist Village, but not inside a Jinchuuriki, you can be free, but will fight alongside us when requested, the same can be said for your protection, we will protect you so you can live in peace, how about it? You win and we win." Naruto said.

"..." Sanbi looked at him for a while as his tails continued to sway and Akame still looked from a distance. "Why would I trust you, human?" He said finally.

"First is that we'll have a summoning contract... you won't be under anyone's control and we also don't want to lose a powerful ally." Naruto said with a logical tone.

"I don't believe you!" Sanbi said at last as he simply turned around to return to the sea, ignoring Naruto who had to jump from his face to the air again.

"We'll be waiting for you for a response on the coast, if you really want this, our alliance is not something you will regret." Naruto exclaimed as the three tails seemed to ignore him, entering the sea as the water churned again with him sinking and swimming to the bottom.

Naruto approached Akame at that moment as she looked a bit lost. "Let's go." Naruto smiled.

"What was that...?" She murmured.

"He's just hesitant, but he'll come looking for us soon, let's go back to the coast and wait for him there." Naruto spoke before picking up the girl and leaving the high sea as they reached the coast.

They set up camp again and Akame slept next to Naruto again, despite having no closer relationship, and it was the next day that Naruto was sitting on a rock with a fishing rod.

"Why are you fishing?" Akame couldn't help but look at Naruto with a strange look.

"Fishing is good. It makes you relax." Naruto spoke as he had asked Akame to take his fishing rod out of his own storage scroll.

"..." Akame didn't know what to say, this man had killed a Kage, a bijuu, defeated thousands of ninjas, and Akame doubted if there was anyone more powerful than him, yet here he was, fishing and relaxing.

"Don’t look at me like that and I'm not using my haki, that takes away the fun, I'm just an ordinary man in the end with common hobbies." Naruto spoke with a smile.

She just sighed before noticing the agitated sea and Naruto also looked towards the high sea with a glow of satisfaction as Sanbi appeared in front of him, splashing water everywhere.

"Well... it looks like I caught one of the big ones." Naruto said, setting aside his fishing rod and turning his attention to the newcomer. "You're finally here." Naruto commented.

"I accept your proposal." He said at last, while Naruto nodded. He felt all the internal conflict in the conversation with Sanbi the day before and knew that he was almost ready to trust Naruto for some reason, but also too proud with memories of being trapped in Jinchuuriki after Jinchuuriki, which left him conflicted.

"As I said, you can live your life in peace at sea, and you can call us when someone bothers you, just as when we need you, although I don’t want you as a weapon of mass destruction, but someone to help in certain crises." Naruto was sincere, before looking at Akame, "Prepare the summoning scroll." He asked, Akame specialized in fuuinjutsu with the knowledge that the Mist Village had obtained in the fight against the Uzumaki clan, Akame learned to make this contract after Naruto asked, after all he knew it might be useful one day.

"She will be the summoner?" The three tails murmured with an unsatisfied tone. "I will not obey her, I will only listen to you because you came to talk to me." Sanbi spoke.

"Hm... Okay... I will always be with her, I can't summon him because I can't use Chakra, but I will be there when you are summoned." Naruto spoke and despite being confused by Naruto's words of not being able to use chakra, the three tails nodded.

"I will also need your name... it's not Sanbi, is it?" Naruto looked at Akame as she began to write on a huge scroll where the name and blood of the summoning were needed to initiate the contract before writing his name on the paper.

"No... my father called me Isobu, this is my real name. What is your name?" He spoke and Naruto immediately became curious about it.

"I'm Naruto Uzumaki! But wait... Father? Who is your father?" He asked, surprised that the bijuu had a father.

"He is the man who created me, me and my other 8 siblings... over a thousand years ago." He said and Naruto immediately approached the bijuu.

"Can you tell me more about this, Isobu?" Naruto had never heard anything like this before, so he wouldn't miss the opportunity.
