Pluton had an extremely important reason for deceiving Swain. Its activation time was astonishingly long, requiring at least half an hour.
Such a lengthy activation time gave the enemy ample opportunity to react, especially someone as powerful as Imu.
Within those thirty minutes, Imu would have more than enough time to respond, potentially reversing the entire situation.
