Tsunade followed suit and summoned her own boss creature.
As three massive puffs of smoke went up across the landscape the smoke cleared to reveal a massive snake, slug, and toad, all looking at one another. Gamabunta let out a puff of smoke from his pipe, "Well if it isn't Manda and Katsuyu. How long's it been since I've seen you two?"
Jiraiya looked down from where he and Naruto were standing on his head, "Bunta, we need your help for this one. So are you in?"
Gamabunta let out another puff from his pipe, "Sure, why not? I guess now I can finally get that Snakeskin wallet I've been wanting."
Naruto smirked, "What would a giant toad want with a snakeskin wallet anyway?" Naruto looked over at Kabuto standing on Manda next to Orochimaru, "I swear that Rasengan should have killed him. I hit him dead on, I splattered his innards all over my face and everything."
Jiraiya looked at Naruto momentarily, "If he's anything like his master then he's a bastard to kill. Don't worry kid, we're settling up right now."
Tsunade looked out at Orochimaru from atop Katsuyu, "This is it Orochimaru. After this there will be one less sannin in the world."
Orochimaru simply chuckled while Manda hissed under him, Orochimaru. What do you think you're doing summoning me out here?"
Kabuto tried to calm the massive snake down, "Manda we just-."
"Silence whelp! I won't bother speaking to a flunky like you!" Manda turned angry eyes to the top of his head, "When this is over I'll be expecting over one-hundred sacrifices."
Orochimaru smirked, "Of course. Nothing less for you Manda."
Kabuto let out a breath he didn't know he was holding, 'Thank goodness. If Manda knew Orochimaru-sama couldn't use jutsu he might just eat us.'
Jiraiya patted Naruto on the head, "Alright kid, it's deadly serious now. Stay out of things unless I say otherwise. Even if you think you see an opening it's probably a feint."
Naruto snorted and slapped Jiraiya's hand from his head, "I'm aware of the level of this fight ero-sennin. And I'm also not stupid enough to fall for any half-assed feints. As far as I'm concerned I'm your trump card if anything."
Jiraiya looked at Naruto in a confused manner, "How so gaki?"
Naruto smirked, "Think about it. Orochimaru can't use his arms to use jutsu, Kabuto and Shizune don't really have any long range jutsu, you and I are the only ones that can fire stuff from a distance, and I can make an ungodly amount of Kage Bunshin, making tons of cannon fodder/potential attackers. I'm your ace in the hole here."
Jiraiya chuckled, "Well I guess that's one thing about you that didn't change; you always want to be in the fight."
Naruto scratched his head, "Yeah, I guess it's in my blood or something."
Jiraiya patted Gamabunta on the head, "Let's go Bunta!"
Gamabunta drew his tanto and rushed at Manda who slithered away rapidly, surprising Naruto, "Damn! That big-ass snake is ridiculously fast!"
Manda moved to Gamabunta's blind spot and attempted to bite down on him, poisonous fangs glistening in the sunlight. Gamabunta jumped aside in time to dodge the strike and hopped away.
Katsuyu moved in and launched acid from her mouth at Manda. Once again showing deceptive speed Manda slipped away and rushed Gamabunta. The boss toad lifted his sword to block Manda's bite, but with a swing of his tail he knocked the sword out of Gamabunta's webbed hands.
Katsuyu launched more acid out at Manda, but he dodged before it could hit. Manda rushed over to Katsuyu and began constricting her. Tsunade noticed her boss summon in dire straits, "Katsuyu, separate!"
The massive slug did as commanded and broke off into tons of smaller forms disorienting Manda who had been wrapped around her at the time.
Jiraiya and Gamabunta decided to take advantage of the momentary advantage given to them. Gamabunta jumped back to gain some space while Jiraiya on his head went through hand signs, "Gamabunta! Give me some oil!"
Gamabunta spat out a glob of oil as Jiraiya held his fingers to his mouth to make a fireball, "Katon: Gamayu Endan (Fire Release: Toad Oil Flame Bulllet)!" The massive firestream that followed engulfed Manda, seemingly melting his figure, however it revealed to simply be a snakeskin.
Manda then burst from the ground behind Gamabunta. Naruto who had been sitting back the entire time saw this and whipped through hand-signs, "Fuuton: Fuujin Seiken (Wind Release: Divine Fist of the Wind God)!" Naruto shot out a double fisted punch at Manda who recoiled with the markings of fists on his face.
Manda hissed as he coiled himself up, the stinging marks still evident, "Little fucking brat!"
Jiraiya grinned at the shot Naruto had taken at the powerful summon until he blinked, "Wait. Where's Tsunade?"
Right on cue Tsunade flew at Manda, holding Gamabunta's tanto and slammed the blade through his mouth, pinning him to the ground.
Naruto's eyes widened at the feat of strength, "Ero-sennin, remind me to never pull the crap that I tried when I first met baa-chan ever again."
Jiraiya patted his head, "Well first of all, calling her baa-chan is just asking for it."
Naruto scoffed, "That's pushing it. If I won't stop calling you ero-sennin then how can she stop me from calling her baa-chan? Super-strength beatdown be damned."
Tsunade ran up Manda's body and began pummeling Orochimaru while Kabuto's attention was held by Shizune. Naruto sweat-dropped at the sight of the snake sannin taking such a beating, "Y-You think we should jump in or something?"
Jiraiya had his telescope out with a stupid grin on his face, "Nah. Tsunade's got it kid."
Naruto's eye twitched as the fight persisted, "No I mean for Orochimaru. His facial structure has to be liquidated by now… Kami, let it be known that the guy can take one hell of a punch if nothing else, he can't even get up a guard to block… That sucks."
Tsunade sent him flying with one last massive shot. Kabuto rushed to his side and picked him up. Orochimaru glared out at Tsunade, "Damn you Tsunade, my plans have failed for now. Do not think this is over, there is still another way to heal my arms, and the next time, I'll kill you both."
With that being said he and Kabuto sunk into the earth to make their escape. Naruto, Jiraiya, and Shizune appeared next to her as all of the summons had long since dispersed. Jiraiya slapped Naruto on the shoulder, "Good job brat! A high level fight like this is over and you aren't an ugly red smudge on the landscape!"
Naruto sighed and rolled his shoulder, "No respect… I don't get no respect at all."
Shizune smiled and kissed him on the cheek, "I respect you Naruto-kun."
Naruto chuckled in disbelief and shook his head with a slight smile on his face, "And that somehow made this day of bullshit somewhat worth it. Thank you Shizune-chan."
Tsunade smirked as she walked over to Naruto, "Well then brat. You won the bet, got the necklace, and now we're going back to Konoha. What are we going to do now?"
Naruto stood still in thought for a moment before turning on his heel and heading back to town. He waved over his shoulder as he walked away, "We just got through fighting Orochimaru and I've been training non-stop for about a week. I'm going to go sleep like the dead, you guys can go do whatever the hell you want."
The amassed adults had a chuckle as they heard Naruto grumbling about Kabuto's blood being all in his clothes. Tsunade shook her head at his retreating figure, "He's going to be a fine man one day. And perhaps a fine Hokage too."
Jiraiya put a hand on her shoulder, "You don't know the half of it." A lecherous grin came upon his face, "Now that that's all done, a woman like you can't be seen in clothes with blood all over them, that's a travesty, it should be a dress or nothing. Luckily for you I happen to have no dress back in my room!"
Naruto could only shake his head as the sounds of a solid 'THWACK' followed by Jiraiya flying overhead towards town rang out.
