Both Yahiko and Munashi were working together, Yahiko trying to share some chakra with Munashi without the proper means to thanks to not having the chakra trasnfer technique, but there was some sort of change thanks to the combination of those two. And that giant shield of water worked enough to stop the raining pellets of enemy water, while Korine was busy cowering for her life. But as those water pellets came down they mixed into the water of the jutsu. Thankfully they kept themselves safe, but all of that chakra from Yahiko meant she would need some time to rest or risk some hospitalization.

Michrama versus the swamprats

With Michrama running into the fray, avoiding the water thanks to that Body FLicker technique or just his speed alone, the boat on the left was completely off guard. They weren't prepared to fight a trained ninja, just a regular person traveling the swamps to skin, salt, tan and eat like jerky! But it seemed that their dinner plans were canceled with the first four on the left boat being torn assunder and their boat being brought under the water thanks to the fire.

The other three boats were looking to turn and combat Michirama, but their close proximity to each other made it pretty damn difficult for anything to be done on the thin alleyway of the watery way. So Michirama's giant whirlpool tactic worked out in his favor that the water benders couldn't react in time.

Being sent under to the murky depths below, any signs of struggling and bubbles stopped shortly after. The three ramaining water benders leapt from their boats, bending the water around their bodies to dive out o the way of that whirlpool! And when they went under, they didn't come back up. COme to think of it, none of the bodies floated back up, nor did the wreckage of the boats. Munashi, Yahiko, Korine and Michirama could see that there was something strange going on with the fact that no dead bodies floated to the surface.

Those two canibals from earlier that called for help were up on one of the higher houses, looking over the edge at the ninja and the water without any bubbles coming up out of it.

Cannibal One: D'yur tunk dey gut ated?

Cannibal Two: Ohfershore. Hoodya tunk dun id? Sherbol? Queelog? Merber wus Ol Somm?

Cannibal One: Oh nuh, iffer wus a Ol Somm we'd kner forshore.

They made themselves scarce though, trying to get away from whatever the problem was. The gang had a few seconds for introspection and to regroup, looking to move forward while the village was left in shambles, and discuss those weird names. They needed to move the boat.

A bit too late no matter what they did.

The sounds of SOMETHING, from somewhere in the swamps could be heard. But what was it? It was so much that the water rippled and bubbles started to come up. Seems the Land of Swamps had more to hide than just rampant cannibalism and fast repoductive tendencies to repopulate villages so fast. Around the boat rose what looked like green tentacles made of vines with scabs of brittle wood on them! The same kind that they saw one body get grabbed by when they first arrived in the village!

All around the boat and with only a few feet around them, they looked to get a hold of the boat and drag it down nice and slow or break it in the process.

Michirama was met with five tendrils slithering up, four from around the tree house he was closest to, all of them seeking to grab on to and tear him apart from two ends. The worst part was that they didn't have any noticeable chakra with those special eyes of his.

As for the boat, Korine was busy wailing her eyes out, terrified of the thought of being pulled under for something's dinner when something came whizzing through the smog of the bog. Four shuriken with wind auras around them, making them about as long as Fuma Shuriken without the actual physical body of those special windmill blades. Who else would come to save them but SHien himself!

The moment that Yahiko had exhausted herself the first time, the bugs that were given to Michirama originally sent a signal and Shien was with Bofu at the time. Being faster than the old man, he was off and arriving on the seen with his ninja tools. using the Verdant Mountain Gale, as he wasn't confident in his magnet release yet, Shien leapt over onto the boat with Munashi, Korine and Yahiko.

"Hey can you do me a favor? Grab that stick and get us moving, shove it against the trees and push us along. Get us closer to Michirama." He referred to the massive oar stick that was used to push things around. Shien spoke through a respirator, his voice coming out funny but understandable. He turned back toward Michirama and shouted, "Behind you!" His shuriken made short work of the vines that were rising up out of the water to grab at the Senju's feet. "We need to get out of here and fast!"
