"What is that?!"
The people watching the battle from atop the wall noticed the wooden barrel thrown by the Beast Titan. Everyone stared nervously at it, unsure what nasty surprise it held.
Armin stared at the barrel, deep in thought. Suddenly, he remembered that Bertolt, the Colossal Titan, had never appeared, which meant Bertolt was very likely inside that barrel.
"This is bad! That's Bertolt being thrown over here!!" Armin shouted in alarm, warning the others.
"What?!" Everyone paled in shock. After all, if the Colossal Titan suddenly transformed in midair, everyone in the area would be blasted to dust.
"Take evasive action immediately! Get away from the Colossal Titan!" Erwin knew full well how dangerous the Colossal Titan was and immediately issued an order.
"Yes!" everyone shouted, then hurried to evacuate the wall.
Mikasa gritted her teeth and glanced at Gu Shun, who was fighting Lin Yuqing over there, but still began retreating at the urging of Sasha and the others.
They watched the barrel sail over the wall and keep moving through the air.
"Damn it, he's too close! We can't get away!" Cold sweat poured off Armin as he watched Bertolt draw closer and closer.
"Move faster!" Levi was also watching Bertolt approach the others. All he could do was have everyone increase their gas output for greater mobility.
"Don't they want to capture Eren anymore?" Jean asked incredulously.
"It looks like they already know they can't take Eren away, so rather than let us evacuate successfully, they'd prefer to wipe us all out in one fell swoop." The clever Armin quickly guessed the enemy's intention.
Although everyone found this somewhat unbelievable, they knew it was the most likely explanation at present. All they could do now was get as far outside the Colossal Titan's impending blast
