<p>After the encounter, Jiraiya was able to seal the flames inside of a scroll. This kept the inn from being destroyed.</p>

<p>In the original Naruto series there is a confrontation between Jiraiya and Itachi. Jiraiya tries to stop Itachi from escaping by trapping him and Kisame inside the stomach of a toad. Itachi was able to escape the stomach by burning a hole through to the other side using amaterasu. </p>

<p>The flames produced by amaterasu are supposed to burn for seven days and seven nights. Also, the flames cannot be extinguished with water. </p>

<p>So, my question is why was the inn they were in not destroyed? The flames should have spread and burned the entire inn. </p>

Why did Itachi's amaterasu not burn the entire inn?
