While one of the benders was easily dispatched due to Michirama's use of the lightning release, he was still forced to deal with the four boats heading their way. "I was so sure that would work" he muttered, but he would have no time to dwell on that, not at the moment. As his earth wave began to rise he prepared to jump on it but was prevented when a large fist of water shattered the Wave of Earth. These bender types were powerful and unbelievably annoying. But they had a weakness, their fighting was most effective when their opponent was disadvantaged by the water between them. So, why not eliminate that medium?

As the volley of spiralling water began to surround them Michirama would jump into action. "Munashi! Do something to protect yourself, Korine and Yahiko! I'll stop the assault" It was a simple order, he just had to hope Mu had something up her sleeves. Now was the time for action! Michirama would clap, sending out a powerful gust of wind all around him with the Gale Pal, the strength of this would stop the first round of water bullets going their way and buy Munashi time. Immediately afterwards. Michirama would vanish from his position on the dock.

The young Senju would reappear on the boat furthest to the LEFT of the four boats and upon arrival, which would be unexpected enough to catch the riders off guard, Michirama would draw his katana, channeling a wind natured Flying swallow through his katana to increase it's cutting power. His movements were swift, performing the Cloud-Style Crescent Moon Beheading to swing his sword in a fast and unpredictable arc, slicing through the boat and riders alike. Michirama's theory was simple, he would engage them where they couldn't use their bending to effectively fight him without endangering themselves.

With the first boat down, Michirama made the handseals for the Fire Release: Flame Bullet, this would allow him to spit out a large gallop of Oil which possessed different qualities to water and would always rise to the surface, by partitioning the oil he fired a total of ten bullets in rapid succession, balancing on the highest point of the now sinking boat he was on. The oil would ignite on impact with the water, due to oil resting above the water this would result in a wall of fire right in front of them which would prove challenging to pass through.

He would turn his attention to the other three boats now, swiping at them with his spare left hand, sending a powerful blade of wind in their direction from the side. They would either have to stop and go backward or power forward into the wall of fire in order to avoid the blade which would severe the boats in half. He was using up more of his immense chakra pool than he would like, guessing himself to be resting at about 70% capacity right now.

It was time to try and use the swamp against them. Michirama created the handseals for Boar - Dog - Bird - Monkey and finally Ram. With the use of the Water Release: Great Waterfall Flow Technique, a very basic but very useful water technique, a large Whirlpool would begin to swirl around the remaining three boats, drawing them to the center faster and faster, as they begun to spiral into the center they would be spinning rapidly, becoming dizzier and dizzier. They would need to focus their attention to escaping the Whirlpool, effectively stopping them from attacking his allies while also leaving them open for a final nail in the coffin. If they couldn't manage to free themselves they would be dragged under, crushed and drowned by the whirlpool.
