Toru was still holding onto his ears, grimacing at the internal pain that he was experiencing
But came next was more pain and it most certainly knocked him out of the internal pain that was ringing through his ears. He, at first, tried to endure, tried to stick his entire being down into the water, but the blast was too much. Toru, just as much as Kobashi was launched backwards in spite of his attempt to remain planted. The concussive force of the roll of tags was simply too much even for the jinchuuriki to naturally hold onto. After all, he wasn't infinitely sticky, just pretentiously durable.
It was a rattling experience, though unlike Kobashi - who had been stumbling and put into a statue-esque state - Toru was able to maintain some dignity when he was thrown back. The explosion displaced a lot of water, and he was half flying through the air, and half blasting through water, which also hurt. There was no shoreline in sight on the other side, but Toru was certainly flying towards it.
He didn't know how long he flew, he just knew that there were the slightest scrapes along his cheeks and his clothing had taken some damage too. In the end, he landed like a skipping stone across the water, displacing more water until he came to a painful stop and started to sink into the water slowly, face down.
Not unconscious but mentally and physically displaced the Mizukage continued to lay there, having the slightest feeling that Kobashi was not in any state to be getting up immediately either, his frame fully submerging under water even with the shroud. He could breathe with the shroud activated, so it was not a huge issue. He knew, that he needed a major reset.
Rattled and ready to take a break, he would climb back up to the surface, gently sitting on his knees, palms pressing into his thighs as he tried to catch his breath. Kobashi was a mere speck somewhere on shore. Toru stood, his muscles aching, his legs especially now that they were holding up the rest of his body. The shroud helped him recover somewhat, but only just. That was quite an explosion, he doubted he had ever seen anything like it before...
There were a few fish floating up dead from their fight which was not the best sign. But hopefully the majority survived for the sake of the local ecosystem.
The young man started to move in time, one step after another. But he wasn't fast, nor trying to be fast, he was just closing the distance.
"Truce?" He called out, louder than normal to try and reach Kobashi. Unsure of whether they should continue or not, but from Kobashi's state, he wasn't sure if they should.
