The goddess Nu Kua fought and defeated the chief of a neighboring tribe, driving him up a mountain.
Floods poured out, inundating the world and killing everyone but Nu Kua and her army; her divinity made her and her followers safe from it.
Nu Kua patched the hole with a plaster made from stones of five different colors, and the floods ceased.
Nu'u and his company were saved by entering into the Great-Canoe, a large canoe roofed over like a house, which had been given them by Kane.
The canoe contained a number of things, and Nu'u ruled over the whole like a chief.
The waters came up as a wicked brother-in-law of Nu'u was indulging himself in pleasure.
The water covered all the ground and drowned all the people except one man, Nu-mohk-muck-a-nah, who escaped in a large canoe to a mountain in the west.

In Hawaiian mythology, Nuʻu is a figure associated with a flood myth that bears some resemblance to the story of Noah from the Abrahamic traditions.
According to the legend, Nuʻu built a large canoe with a house on it to survive a great flood.
After the flood receded, Nuʻu landed on Mauna Kea and made offerings to the moon, mistaking it for his god, Kāne.
Kāne then descended on a rainbow to correct Nuʻu's mistake and receive his offerings.
This Hawaiian myth of Nuʻu shares common elements with other global flood myths, including the preservation of life through a boat or ark and the offering of sacrifices after the flood subsides.
