Gathering of the Snakes (5 Chakra). When Manda II loses a body part but it is not completely destroyed (i.e. having an arm cut off, being blown in half by an Explosive Style jutsu, not being shredded by a Rasengan or incinerated by Blaze Style), he reattaches it. This does not restore hit points or heal the body part, only functionality. Chakra Absorbing Snakes (8 Chakra). One creature within 40 ft. must attempt a DC 14 Dexterity saving throw, becoming restrained on a failure. They may attempt a DC 14 Strength saving throw at the end of each of their turns, ending this effect early on a success.

Twin Snakes Mutual Death (20 Chakra). One creature within 40 ft. must attempt a death saving throw at the beginning of each of their next turns until they succeed or fail 3 times, regardless of their current hit points.

At the end of a long rest, they may attempt a DC 14 Constitution or Intelligence saving throw. After 3 successes, they lose the disadvantage. Many Hidden Shadow Snake Hands (4 Chakra).

As a bonus action, Manda II makes an unarmed strike against every creature and object below him before he reaches an object larger than a 5 ft. cube that he can not break through with the attack. On a hit or miss, every targeted creature is moved 5 ft. away from where they were targeted in a direction of their choice. REACTIONSIron Mountain Leaning (3 Chakra).

Orochimaru Style Substitution (3+ Chakra). When Manda II is targeted by a saving throw and would take damage, he decreases the damage by 27 (2d6 + 20). Manda II can reduce this damage by an additional 7 (2d6) points per chakra point spent over the initial cost. |
Using the now-dead Orochimaru's cloning laboratories, various shinobi drugs, and the genes of multiple snakes form Ryūchi Cave, primarily the original Manda, Manda II was created by Kabuto as the ultimate summoning snake; a beast that walks the border between snake and dragon. While fully grown, it was basically a newborn during the Fourth Shinobi World War. Knowing nothing but to serve its creator, not even knowing how to speak like its genetic template, Manda II reacts violently to pain, and positively to being allowed to feast on creatures bearing chakra. During the Fourth Shinobi World War, it and the reincarnated Deidara incapacitated, and even flipped, the Hidden Cloud's massive Island Turtle. After Kabuto captured Yamato, the hostile team entered the snake's mouth, returning to Kabuto's hideout. Following the end of the war and Kabuto's rehabilitation, Manda II was given a formal place in the Leaf Village's orphanage in order to have him officially adopted by the White Snake Sage, where he was raised alongside the rest of his kin's young despite the massive size difference. While still only a child, it's possible that with proper training, he may surpass the sage, and potentially be considered among the likes of the tailed beasts. |
