If there had been NO attack at Pearl Harbor, there would have to be another reason for war between the US and Japan. Without a reason for war; there would be NO confrontation between the US Navy and the Japanese Navy. If the question is asking: Could the Japanese Navy stop the US Navy in 1941 (which was the year of the beginning of the US involvement in WWII...the Pearl Harbor attack); Yes, the Imperial Navy was MUCH BETTER trained and equipped than any other navy in the world in 1941.

Why was it morally justified for japan to attack pear harbor?
It was not morally justified for Japan to attack Pearl Harbor. Elements of the Japanese Imperial High Command believed that conflict with the United States was inevitable and that a "first strike" would knock the Americans out of the war. The Japanese had hoped to catch the three American carriers at anchor in Pearl Harbor, but failed. While the Japanese seriously damaged the American fleet, it failed to land a lethal blow. The American carrier-fleet helped to stop the Japs at Coral Sea and then at Midway a few months later. The Battle of Midway began the reversal of Japan's fortune in the Pacific.
