Note: Only one snake may be conjured per sleeve (a maximum of two).

When used the clan member can stretch and twist their body at any angle, allowing them to surprise their opponents, spy on situations normally out of reach, and react much like a snake would.

Range: Close (0m ~ 5m)
Type: Offensive

Note: By default, the user can summon twelve snakes from their sleeve. The user must first know the Senei Jashu technique. Likewise, these snakes can infect a target with the Kage-Hebi’s Tier 2 poisons.

Mandara no Jin (Myriad Snake Net Formation)
Rank: S
Range: Close (0m ~ 5m), Mid (5m ~ 10m), Far (10m+)
Type: Offensive
Handseals: 12
Chakra Consumption: Massive
Using their ties to snakes, the Kage-Hebi will release a torrent of serpents from their mouth, bursting forth towards their target at high speeds as well as replicating in amongst itself. This wave will rise and rush towards their target, increasing in size and speed along the way. These snakes can also open their mouths to extend whatever type of main weapon the user is currently equipped with. Only a powerful enough wave of force can stop the network and destroy the snakes.

Note: The wall created boasts an impressive count of 1,000 snakes, though they aren’t large or impressive in size (roughly one meter long and three inches thick). These snakes cannot be controlled and travel in a straight line, and perish two posts after they’ve been created. The wall created is roughly ten meters high and twenty meters wide.

MASTERY

Tier 1 - Predator: Due to their unique bodies, the Kage-Hebi have an innate ability to soften the damage from blunt-force trauma by quickly making the impacted area more malleable than natural. And while they aren't able to eliminate the force entirely, they're able to substantially hinder the damage caused by the attack in question (this does not work on slicing or piercing abilities).
