Dr. Kojiro's eighth robot master Nanite Man was based on the theme of nanotechnology. He is extremely thin and lanky in comparison to the others Kojiro had built up to this point. He fights using his long shoulder tendrils by snapping them around like whips as well as using his signature weapon, the Nano Lathe, to create puddles of "grey goo" that will hunt down Mega Man. If Mega Man jumps over them, they will extend upwards. He can also shoot a "spread shot" from his Nano Lathe.
