Hanji and Magath were watching the port from far away, watching every Jaegerist there as surveillance towards the surroundings.

"I can't believe Floch made it here this early", Hanji moves the telescope so she can see the big ship━

"It's all over for us if the Jaegerist destroy the flying boat", Magath turns his gaze to the smaller structure next to the huge ship. "Why haven't they done it?"

"Who knows. They're likely unsure that we're still alive and trying to stop Eren and (Y/n)", Hanji lowers the telescope as she glances at Magath. "Destroying the ship is simple, but after the world is destroyed, it'd take decades to recreate the technology. I'm sure they'd want a flying boat to explore the continents once it's empty. Perhaps their primary goal in occupying the harbor was to get the Azumabito with their ships and technicians under control. However, if they learn that we're here as well... I'm sure they'll smash that flying boat into pieces in an istant"

Magath lowers the telescope to listen to Hanji's words while behind them, hidden by the hill, the rest of the group were preparing with the equipment.

"Even if we had the power of the Nine Titans, stopping them would be difficult"

"But if we falter here, we would have no chance to take down the Founder", Magath turns back, but Hanji quickly stands up as her pupils constrict at the sight of something ahead, causing the surroundings to fall silent.

"We have to kill them all at once", Annie speaks, having the attention of the entire group. "That's our only way to secure the flying boat. We'll use the power of all our Titans alongside your weapons to do that. Okay? "

All the scouts were staring down, until Connie uttered the first word.

"Hold on a second"

"Why?", Annie asks, Connie opens his mouth to speak but not a word comes out so Mikasa speaks for him.

"If we indiscriminately attack the harbor, the Azumabito will get caught in the crossfire"

"She's right!", Connie says quickly.

"They might be distant relative to you, but to us, they're enemies who attacked our homeland", Annie speaks while looking at Mikasa.

"No", Pieck speaks this time, Annie turns to her. "It'll be a problem if we let the Azumabito die, Annie. Isn't that right?", Pieck looks towards Onyankopon and Yelena.

"Indeed. I should be able to pilot the flying boat on my own. But without the Azumabito mechanics, that thing is just a plain boat with no wings. Its wings are currently folded to make it easier to transport by sea", Onyankopon says. "And of course, just extending the wings won't be enough to make it fly. It was originally meant to be transported to the hangar, receive maintenance inspection and perform flight drills before it's used for operations.

"About how long would that take?", Reiner asks, Onyankopon looks away as a drop of sweat runs down his face.

"I don't know. Ask the Azumabito"

Mikasa sighs as she looks at her arm where the bandage covering her Azumabito tattoo was.

"I see. So we need to protect the Azumabito and secure them enough time to get the flying boat ready. On top of that, you're also going to tell me that you don't want to kill any the Jeagerist trying to stop us?", Annie speaks again.
