Answer:

d.Pathos

Step-by-step explanation:

Pathos is a rhetorical device that is used when a speaker tries to elicit feelings of pity or any type of emotion from his audience.

Therefore, the words used in the question uses pathos to elicit emotion by describing how the navy of Japan launched an unprovoked attack against America.
