## Summary [ ]

With Jiraiya unable to fully control his chakra , Naruto tries to summon a toad larger than Gamakichi for him to use. He can only summon Gamatatsu , Gamakichi's younger brother. Orochimaru and Kabuto , each riding a snake , attack. Jiraiya is able to trap Orochimaru's in a swamp, but Kabuto's manages to catch Naruto in its mouth. As Naruto struggles to escape, Kabuto fights Shizune and quickly subdues her. He then turns his attention to the still-paralysed Tsunade . Jiraiya and Orochimaru exchange blows but, being unable to do much to each other, discuss their respective interests. Orochimaru says that nobody can compare to Sasuke , an Uchiha , but Jiraiya says that natural skills do not compare to someone with Naruto's determination. At that moment, Naruto blocks Kabuto's attack.
