By burrowing through the earth, we both escaped being fried by lightning.
Manda's body slithered as it shifted its head back and forth underground. I was in his mouth, not knowing whether I'd be eaten or carried to the surface. Manda was always a haughty snake, but in this situation, I had no choice but to rely on his abilities.
I stumble around on my feet feeling Manda's body jerk a few moments later. It's possible that it's the enemy's Jutsu. That means he pinpointed our location, which indicates he is a sensory ninja, I concluded.
The Holy Fire would have been channeled through the earth and burned Manda's body, but the level of attack was insufficient to melt its scales, which are immune to its level of damage.
Manda would lift his body, rising over 100 meters tall like a looming tower over a city. His cold gaze swept across the battlefield and locked on Drittz. He prowled across the ground at breakneck speed, tossing me from his mouth into the air in the direction of Drittz. I'd fly forward at breakneck speed while performing hand signs and channeling raiton-chakra into my hand—
Lightning Cutter!!
Manda would coil its body like a ring, biting his tail, and surround the area, preventing Drittz from escaping as I tried to pierce his chest with a lightning blade.

Description: The Lightning Cutter is an enhanced and concentrated form of the Chidori with the same effects and drawbacks that is done performing the Ox → Rabbit → Monkey hand seals. According to Might Guy, it gained its name after Kakashi split a bolt of lightning with it. Because the Chidori is already powerful on its own, the Lightning Cutter requires better chakra control, which is exemplified in its appearance. The Chidori appears as simply a mass of white electrical chakra in the user's hand, while the Lightning Cutter is much more focused. Kakashi has shown different ways of forming and using the Lightning Cutter, unique to him. For example, he demonstrated the ability to imbue a projectile weapon, such as a kunai, with his Lightning Cutter, granting the technique long-range capabilities by throwing the kunai towards his target. In this instance, the kunai was capable of piercing through multiple large rocks with ease, without any loss of momentum or change in trajectory.
Note: Kakashi biographies can use the technique without hand seals.
Note: Only Kakashi biographies can apply the technique to a kunai and use it as a projectile attack.
