@KG65 we can have a whole argument around whos fast, whos faster, and etc. But instead of having pages of pages of our interpretation, these characters are fast, period. In your case of how you view Kabuto as "meh" speed, does that conclude that my premise of predicting and dodging PS swing invalid? And that only Madara and Hashirama are only capable of doing?
@Shelke who said anything about simultaneously? Learning both of these jutsu requires different hand signs. Once once hand seal is done and the jutsu is release, he has to make another hand sign and touch the ground. Naruto characters have shown to do this since part 1 lol, there is no speculation. P.S. back up your words too as some claims aren't even making sense. All it takes is to hyper link your words to know what you are talking about. Then I can properly counter your claims.

Why Manda II Is Broken
As we should already know, Manda II had only one panel, meaning he rarely has feats to put up with Manda I. But as Kabuto stated:

We HAVE to make that rational thought to what Kishimoto had displayed to Manda II, by Kabuto's statement. Meaning if you look at Manda I feats Speed[

], Sense[

], and Power/Mole attack[
You must be registered for see links
], and Shedding[
You must be registered for see links
]. Manda II is simply greater.
But my main focus here is Manda II ability to Shed:
Kabuto already developed his own Shedding Technique[
You must be registered for see links
]!
Since Manda II was created during the time of behind of the scenes of War Arc, we CANNOT go back and give him the inferior version of Shedding in Part 1[

It is a FACT that Kabuto shared this trait with his Summonings[
You must be registered for see links
]. Not only that but they have the recovery power integrated on them TOO[

So even if you make a case of Manda II effortlessly getting cut and destroyed, it doesn't matter! Like all of Kabuto summon, revert to body fluids Kabuto created(no not water) and back to good as new[

Cutting him up is all useless! If you still think he is weak? Manda II also has limbs that Kabuto can Buff up like all his other Snakes in his command[

NO, Kabuto Snakes That Have This Ability, is "Kabuto splitting his body in portions", Not His Summons
Wrong! This technique Kabuto was using was called Hidden Snakes[
You must be registered for see links
](Kishimoto's statement):
A jutsu where the multiple snakes concealed in one's sleeve are used for an unforeseen assault on an opponent! This attack comes in many variations, from biting to constriction. In addition, as those snakes are summoned animals, they are far stronger and more cunning than regular ones, thanks to which they can effectively be employed for capture by entwining around the enemy.
^^^^
I bold that important part for you. We have seen many times, especially from Sasuke who had exposes where the snakes are coming from when summoned[

With the summons specified beforehand, the procedure can be shortened by using blood on a summoning "contract seal" (結印, ketsuin), making it possible to invoke the technique immediately
Snake Summonings are the only Summons shown to be able to use the blood from your body and come out from your flesh. And NO do not make a case that it only comes from your hands as Orochimaru and Kabuto already shown it can come out in any open space [

Edit: Even Orochimaru's mouth![

] Which Databook described:
The countless number of summoned snakes crawl out of Orochimaru's mouth and shunt down the enemy... In front of such overwhelming numbers, a true"wall of snakes," defense and evasion mean nothing. The enemy can do nothing but become buried by the snakes. Furthermore, when the inexhaustibly crawling snakes gather, they become a defensive wall, blocking any kind of attack!!
Kabuto's Personal Summoning can do it, period!

Kabuto and Orochimaru Combination
You still think that's not enough? Ok that's fine as Kabuto also has Orochimaru in him.
So what? Have you forgotten Orochimaru also has a
contract with the Snakes?
With Orochimaru present on his body, means Kabuto can use Twice the amount of Summoning roaming in the area!

Kabuto uses up his blood contract and he makes Orochimaru use up his blood contract, simple[

Kabuto can have two fodder Snakes attack[

You must be registered for see links
] while Manda II can attack[3]. All that to distract and warn out even PS, who attempt to slash all the way "through victory".
Madara wouldn't even know when to begin slashing as some Snakes can crawl up underground(Manda II) and up[
You must be registered for see links

You must be registered for see links
] (Same exact tactic as Manda I). some will directly attack, fodder snakes, and all while he can't see where Kabuto will be hiding since snakes will be everywhere for him to see and detect[
You must be registered for see links
](Focus on First two Panels).
That's not all! Kabuto can make Orochimaru go 8 Branch while he is at it[
You must be registered for see links
]!
PS effortlessly slash through 8 branch too? Thats fine! as it has its regeneration powers as his 1st White Snake form[
You must be registered for see links
].
Not only that, but Orochimaru's true form also carries poison that vaporizes in the air, which is undetectable on air[
You must be registered for see links
]! It will bypass Sussanoo! To bad Madara doesn't have something to seal off 8 branch before it takes effects, or Yata.
Now some maybe wonder if Kabuti can even attempt with without some type of toll, for consequence.
Nope! He has nature, an outside source, that he can constantly gather while moving! And guess what:

Kabuto is simply a living Edo, lmao.
