If you have studied world war 2. We can make a more informed guess. The Japanese admiral considered the war doomed from the start, with the only hope being the destruction of all the 4 American aircraft carriers.

The battle of midway instead knocked out of all Japanese aircraft carriers. Unbeknownst to Japan, the United states was already pumping out several aircraft carriers per month and was also developing the nuclear bomb. The only possible change could have been surrendering to the Soviet union instead of United states. However, even that seems unlikely given the N bomb.
