The Mamushi Snake Hood in Assassin's Creed Shadows can be obtained by completing the Omizo Castle in the Omi region of the map. It's to the left of Lake Biwa, in the Ado River Valley area. This castle is in a town with the same name, Omizo.

If you've visited Sakamoto, mainly during the questline regarding the Naginata of the Shinbakufu, travel there and head north following the coastline to reach Omizo. Alternatively, you can travel to Okishima Island, the same place where you can find the Namazu Mount in AC Shadows and take a boat to reach the town of Omizo.

Like any other castles you've completed, you'll need to take out two Samurai Daishos in the Omizo Castle to unlock the Legendary Chest that contains the Mamushi Snake Hood in Assassin's Creed Shadows. Also unlike other fortresses, the chest will be outside the main keep, and looting it will give you the reward.

The Mamushi Snake Hood gives you a massive 33% Cooldown on Ally abilities, allowing you to often call for your allies in Assassin's Creed Shadows.
