The fight against the Jaegerists and the Titans continued, with Annie and Reiner easily overwhelming the men, destroying the roofs of the structures. Reiner struck two Jaegerists with his arm, knocking their bodies into the water. As the fight continued, some Jaegerists were on the rooftops near the basement waiting for those inside to emerge.
Hanji, Louis and Magath looked at Azumabito's men in surprise.
"Wh-What... did.. you just said?", Hanji asks.
"So I'm saying, it will take an entire day to prepare the flying boat for flight. With all the necessary facilities, we could try to make it fly in half a day"
"Half a day?", Magath looked at the men with a confused expression, disbelieving what they were saying. If what they were saying was true, that would mean they were going to take longer than expected. "You're saying we have to defend this place for that long? The enemy will send in ass many reinforcements as they need. The Titan's power could only last for a few hours at most, and we're supposed to seize this harbor for half a day? "
"We won't make it in time", Hange's voice made Magath and Louis look at her, seeing her worried expression about the information just now. "The Rumbling's march was faster than a galloping horse. And they can also ignore any obstacles on their way. In half a day, the Titans would already cross the shoreline to about 600 kilometers inland. It will probably only take them four days...to trample the entire continent"
Kiyomi felt a lump in her throat when she heard that.
"Even if we could stop Eren and (Y/n) with the fastest method possible..It'd already be too late for Liberio"
Louis gasped as sweat trickled down his forehead. A flashback to their time in Liberio came back to him, recalling some of the people he had met there. His brow furrowed as he gritted his teeth.
"No way.."
"Even if we got the flying boat going, we still don't Eren and (Y/n)'s location. It'll take even more time to locate them. To begin with, it's impossible to hold them off for even half of a day. This is..."
"I have an idea", Magath looked at Kiyomi.
Now everyone present went inside the basement where there was a map showing the location of both Marley and Paradise.
"On the South from here, there's a hangar owned by the Azumabito in the coastal Marleyan city of Odiha. It's possible to service the flying boat there",Kiyomi points to the island. "By hauling the flying boat with a ship, we could sail off at once, then complete flight preparations in Odiha",
"The Marleyan coast?", Hanji asks, placing her finger under her chin. "Given the distance..",She moves closer to the map. "Isn't it one of the cities about to be destroyed by the Rumbling?"
