Battle 7

Defeat all the bosses (0/1)

This is a 3v1 battle but don't underestimate Yukikaze, especially if you haven't farmed for EXP and you're short on additional ship girls to join your fleet. She's very sturdy and self-sustaining heal. If your damage output can't keep up with her healing, then you'll have a hard time achieving S-rank until you're able to dish enough damage to ignore her effective healing and defense.

You'll be facing Takao, Atago, and Yamashiro in a 3v3 battle. This should be a very straightforward battle, especially if you already have a complete set of main and support fleet members. If you're having problems taking them down reliably, consider farming in the previously cleared battles to have enough parts to upgrade your equipment and level up your ship girls.
