With a loud bang, the Poké Ball opened, and a yellow and black mouse jumped out of it.
"What's that?" Manda felt an itch on his nose and let out a snort.
Pikachu landed on the ground with a thud, clearly out of breath.
"Dammit! Pikachu! What's wrong with you? Pikachu!" Naruto rushed forward, staring at his nearly unconscious Pokémon. He shouted in frustration. "Why haven't you used your Thunderbolt yet? Why're you so weak all of a sudden?!"
"You're in for it now!" Naruto raised his head and shouted at Manda.
Everyone else: "..."
"Orochimaru, who is this weirdo?" Manda turned to ask Orochimaru.
Orochimaru scowled at the scene. The two had just been humiliated by the absurdity before them. "Don't underestimate him. He's stronger than he looks."
At that moment, Naruto reached into his backpack and pulled out another Poké Ball. "I'm a Pokémon master! How could I only have one Pokémon? Go, Aerodactyl!"
He threw the ball like a baseball, and it whizzed through the air toward Manda.
Manda flicked it away with his tail, and the ball sailed into the distance.
Everyone: "..."
"Are you sure he's strong?" Manda asked Orochimaru again, clearly bewildered. "I think you've lost it."
Orochimaru's already pale face darkened in annoyance.
Suddenly, a dragon's roar echoed from the Poké Ball that Manda had sent flying. A massive flying pterosaur emerged, its entire body gray, with purple wing membranes stretching wide. It was several times larger than Manda, and it rushed forward, charging straight at the giant snake.
Everyone stared in disbelief. "What the hell is that? A tailed beast? Wait, it doesn't even have a tail!"
The three Summoning beasts were equally stunned. "I've never seen anything like this in the Summoning world."
Aerodactyl charged toward Manda, knocking it back with a powerful whip of its tail before opening its massive mouth and taking a bite.
Katsuyu, seizing the opportunity under Tsunade's command, launched a large amount of acid at Manda. But the snake quickly dodged and lunged at the summon, wrapping itself around Katsuyu, intending to swallow her whole.
With a sharp snap, Gamabunta jumped in and blocked Manda's bite with his sword.
Aerodactyl flapped its wings and eyed the three Summoning beasts below.
Confused, it seemed uncertain what to do next. Frustrated, it began flapping its wings again, charging after Manda.
Manda saw that he was being attacked from all sides. He swiftly contorted his body into a snaking shape, attempting to escape to the side.
Not willing to let him go, Aerodactyl opened its mouth, and a piercing cry rang out. The sonic wave from the attack, Supersonic, rang through the air, sending a shockwave that rattled everyone's senses.
"Stop!" Naruto yelled, recognizing the danger of the sound attack that could affect both allies and enemies. He quickly threw a Poké Ball and recalled Aerodactyl back into its sphere.
Manda let out a long sigh of relief, happy to be rid of the unusual summon.
As Jiraiya and Gamabunta regrouped, Jiraiya barked, "Gamabunta, oil jutsu! Fire Style: Toad Oil Flame Bomb!"
A massive fireball erupted, scorching the ground and sending waves of fire toward Manda.
The snake hissed in agony as its scales began to burn, leaving behind only a smoldering carcass of snake skin.
"Not good! It's underground!" Manda suddenly disappeared into the earth, reappearing beneath Gamabunta and swallowing him whole.
Just then, a massive sword appeared in the sky. Tsunade, wielding the giant weapon, plunged it into the ground with all her might, impaling Manda with a single strike.
"Damn it! Fighting two of the Sannin at once is too much!" Orochimaru thought to himself.
"That's it! I've had enough of this! When we meet next time, Orochimaru, you're dead!" Manda hissed in fury as it retreated into the Summoning realm.
"Dammit, Tsunade! There's more than one way to revive these hands, and I swear I will destroy Konoha!" Orochimaru cursed, his anger boiling over. "The one who's truly immortal is me!"
Suddenly, a red-and-white Poké Ball soared toward Orochimaru. He glanced sideways, and there stood Naruto, throwing another ball. "Go, Pikachu No. 2!"
A flash of red light filled the air, and once again, Pikachu appeared, crackling with energy. Orochimaru, his confidence restored, secretly relaxed. "It's just that weak rat again... surely it can't do anything this time."
Naruto yelled, "Pikachu! Thunderbolt!"
"Pika! Pika!" Pikachu's cheeks sparked, releasing an enormous bolt of yellow lightning that struck Orochimaru.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAH!" Orochimaru screamed, his body crackling with electricity, before he slowly collapsed, his hair smoking in the shape of a fashionable afro as he sunk into the ground.
The battlefield was silent.
"Aw, he ran away." Naruto sighed, disappointed.
"Pika, pika!" Pikachu seemed just as angry, its little paws clenched in frustration.
"I never thought that little yellow rat could use Lightning Style so effectively," Jiraiya said as he picked up Pikachu and examined it closely. "Where did you find something like this?"
Before he could finish, a zap of lightning hit Jiraiya, and he collapsed to the ground, blackened from the electricity.
"Pikachu sure knows how to keep people on their toes," Naruto remarked, laughing.
Pikachu hopped back into its Poké Ball, seemingly pleased with its work.
Tsunade raised an eyebrow. "Where do you keep finding all these strange things, Naruto?"
Naruto grinned. "Once upon a time, there was an old man who—"
"Shut up!"
Later that evening, the group returned to the izakaya.
"Ah~ I can't believe Tsunade became the Fifth Hokage," Naruto sighed dramatically.
"What's wrong, Naruto? You seem like you're in deep thought," Jiraiya asked, raising an eyebrow.
Naruto scratched the back of his head. "Well, I'm just thinking about how she used to be so grumpy, willful, and—"
Before he could finish, Tsunade glared at him, veins popping on her forehead. Without warning, she punched him on the forehead.
"I'm still very happy," Naruto said quickly, "After all, I'm who's going to be Hokage man one day."
Tsunade's face turned a deep red. Her hand stopped in midair, fingers curling around Naruto's collar as she pulled him in for a quick kiss on his forehead.
"Alright, let's go!" Tsunade said, flustered, before turning quickly and leaving the izakaya.
Naruto snapped back to his senses. "Wait! Tsunade-chan! Do it again, I didn't feel anything! You can't just steal my first kiss like that!"
"Idiot! Stay away from me!" Tsunade yelled, walking away with a flustered pace.
Naruto followed her, their distance growing.
Jiraiya watched them, feeling a bitter pang in his chest. He shook his head. "Naruto's still just a kid…"
Sighing, Jiraiya took a sip of his drink, only to suddenly realize something was wrong.
"Hey! You two skipped out on the order!" Jiraiya shouted angrily, realizing they had left without paying.
