"Trouble!"
"From the looks of it, I can't handle this alone!"
Ann hovered in the air, looking at Sengoku standing beside Ace, Zephyr, and Akainu beneath the execution platform.
Her expression turned grave. She could not do it alone, much less with two Marine Admirals still present.
Hmm!
Kizaru was excluded. He was an ally.
Whoosh!
Tap! Tap!
Ann descended from the air onto the deck at Whitebeard's bow.
"Do you have a plan? At this rate, rescuing Ace won't be easy!" Ann asked.
"No rush."
Whitebeard stared at Sengoku and said, "We still can't see the Marines' exact formation. It's not time to go all out yet."
"Then when do we wait until?" Ann was growing anxious. Every extra minute meant more danger for Ace.
Whitebeard explained, "I have my own plan. Just act according to your own judgment."
"My own judgment?"
"That's right!"
"All right, then."
Though she did not understand Whitebeard's specific plan, Ann was not about to press him for details.
"If that's the case, we should push the battle line to the plaza first. We're still too far away."
Ann watched the battlefield gradually draw closer to the plaza and made her assessment.
Only when they were close enough could they respond quickly if something unexpected happened.
If that was the case, then it was time to go!
Ann's gaze sharpened. Leaning forward, she shot toward the plaza with a whoosh.
This time, she was not planning to go through the air. Instead, she charged straight across the frozen surface of the bay toward the plaza.
Along the way!
The Psychic Armament around Ann's hands shifted and transformed into blade-like shapes.
"Slash Wave!" Ann gave a low shout as she cleared the way. Her hands flashed rapidly, sending countless Slash Waves crashing toward the Marines.
