Chapter 23

"When did it split?"

Jiraiya was shocked to see another Flame Demon clinging to him.

He knew that the Flame Demon could split and reproduce after a certain point, but he hadn't seen it happen.

Maybe it was during the confusion in the tavern when he wasn't paying attention.

The Flame Demon held onto Jiraiya tightly, burning him and attempting to consume him.

"Let go of me!"

Jiraiya struggled desperately, but the Flame Demon couldn't be removed by physical means, and without his hands free to form seals, he couldn't use Water Release to extinguish it.

At this rate, he would become fuel for the Flame Demon!

"Pervy Sage!"

Seeing Jiraiya in trouble, Naruto rushed forward.

"Wait! You don't know Water Release!"

Tsunade quickly warned as Naruto charged.

"So what! I'm going to be the Hokage, how can I just stand by and watch my comrade get hurt!"

Naruto answered resolutely, immediately using Multi Shadow Clone Jutsu.

"To become Hokage, I can't stand by and do nothing…"

Tsunade looked at Naruto's determined back, remembering her brother, who also fought desperately to protect his comrades.

"What a fool, a hot-blooded idiot. No, the fool is me, almost forgetting what's most important."

Tsunade showed a look of resignation, tears slowly streaming down her face before she wiped them away.

"Naruto, don't come over! You need water to get rid of it!"

Jiraiya shouted, hoping to stop Naruto from getting himself killed.

"Don't worry! I might not know Water Release, but I have a similar move!"

Naruto looked confident as he commanded his clones to surround the Flame Demon from above.

"Water Release, Urination Technique!"

All the Narutos unzipped and began urinating on the Flame Demon, dousing it effectively.

"Ahhh…"

This scene was shocking not only to Jiraiya and Tsunade but also to everyone watching.

One Piece World.

On the Thousand Sunny.

"Hahaha! This Naruto guy is a genius, coming up with such a hilarious method!"

Luffy laughed heartily, finding it very amusing.

Nami covered her face in embarrassment.

"Forget that, Tsunade is so beautiful! And what a great figure!"

Sanji looked like a lovesick fool, swaying as he saw Tsunade.

"So beautiful, and I'd love to see her panties!"

Brook agreed enthusiastically.

"You two perverts!"

Nami punched both Sanji and Brook.

"Ah, Nami-san is also wonderful~~"

Back on the screen.

"Ahhh!!"

The Flame Demon, realizing it was being extinguished by urine, furiously released Jiraiya and stood up, preparing to kill the surrounding Narutos in anger.

"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!!"

At that moment, a powerful whooshing sound filled the air.

Tsunade rushed to the Flame Demon, her hands forming seals.

"Splash!!"

A torrent of water sprayed from Tsunade's mouth, thoroughly soaking the Flame Demon.

The sound of boiling water hissed, and white steam rose.

When the water dissipated, the Flame Demon had shrunk to a small spark, weakly flickering.

"Splash!"

Tsunade spat another water ball, extinguishing the Flame Demon completely.

She then immediately used medical ninjutsu to heal Jiraiya.

"Sorry, I'm late."

Tsunade apologized.

"Your hemophobia is cured!"

Jiraiya was surprised.

"Yeah, thanks to your idiot apprentice."

Tsunade nodded.

"Whoosh!!"

At that moment, explosions erupted down the street, buildings engulfed in flames, spreading rapidly.

Screams echoed everywhere.

"This is bad! The first Flame Demon took advantage of our distraction to attack elsewhere!"

Jiraiya stood up anxiously.

"Let's go!"

Tsunade sensed the escalating danger and rushed forward.

When they arrived, they found a once bustling street turned into a hellscape, charred bodies everywhere.

"Hahaha!!"

Several Flame Demons laughed mockingly, continuing to spread the fire and consume more flammable materials.

In such a short time, the Flame Demons had caused immense damage.

Only now did Jiraiya and Tsunade realize the true horror of these creatures.

Missing one meant an endless battle!

"Pervy Sage, what do we do?"

Naruto was overwhelmed, unsure of what to do.

"I have a technique that can create a massive water flow to extinguish all the flames, including those creatures."

Jiraiya said slowly.

"But the problem is, we need to ensure not a single one escapes."

This was Jiraiya's biggest headache. He couldn't afford to miss any Flame Demon.

"Heh, why worry about such a trivial matter?"

A cold voice suddenly interrupted.

The three turned to see Orochimaru and Kabuto standing behind them.

"Orochimaru! What are you doing here!"

Naruto was on high alert, recognizing Orochimaru as the killer of the Third Hokage.

"I came to ask Tsunade to heal my hands, but I didn't expect to witness such an interesting scene."

Orochimaru smirked, his eyes gleaming with interest as he observed the Flame Demons.

He didn't know what they were but was fascinated by their unique biological structure and vitality.

They were his ideal form for immortality.

"What do you want!"

Jiraiya stood protectively in front of Naruto, glaring at Orochimaru with anger.

"Why did you kill the teacher!"

"Heh, is this really the time to discuss that?"

Orochimaru sneered, uninterested in dwelling on the matter.

"How about a deal? I help you deal with these creatures, and Tsunade heals my hands. I can even promise never to harm Konoha again. It's a fair trade."

Orochimaru proposed.

"You think we'll agree? You can't be trusted!"

Naruto immediately refused, not trusting Orochimaru at all.

"Agreed."

To everyone's surprise, Tsunade accepted.

"Granny Tsunade, why…"

"The current situation is more important!"

Tsunade scolded Naruto.

She didn't want to accept Orochimaru's help but saw no other way to handle the situation.

"Haha, as expected of Tsunade, you're smart. Kabuto, use Earth Style: Earth Flow Rampart."

Orochimaru laughed, giving orders.

"I understand, but my chakra alone…"

"Don't worry, I'll add mine."

Orochimaru opened his mouth, and a white snake emerged, biting Kabuto's neck!
