Best Answer

Yes and no. The hydra has multiple heads, as you may or may not know. Only the middle hydra head can breathe fire. Also, when you cut off one hydra head, two more grow back in its place. So if someone keeps cutting off the middle head, they will keep doubling the number of fire-breathing hydra heads.
