Everyone was thoroughly drenched. It was just the natural state of being on this island these days. And after three days of rain, Aku-chan's threats of flood were showing. Everyone was sloshing through ankle-deep water to get to their destinations - at least the water hadn't gotten inside yet.
Jin Suzumiyatake had a few solutions. The first was the tall geta he owned. Yep, six-inch bottoms on those things, and though they forced him to move a little slower, his feet just cleared the water mark. He'd be safe for another day or two.
The second was the lacquered parasol he owned. No, it wasn't ideal for rain, but it was better than nothing, and at least it kept the water off of his upper body.
