The Colossal Titan, with terrifying power, instantly destroyed all warships in Reberio Port. Armin then emerged from the Colossal Titan's body, gazing at the naval base he had just annihilated.
Countless lives were lost in his single strike. Perhaps this was the scene Bertholdt had witnessed. Armin, his expressionless face, fired a flare into the sky; his mission was complete.
Meanwhile, Jean, wielding a thunder spear, charged rapidly towards the defenseless Cart Titan. However, Falco timely intercepted him, standing before Pieck. Yet, Jean still fired the thunder spear.
At that very moment, Pieck released a large amount of steam, causing the thunder spear to miss its mark and deviate. It's unclear whether the steam affected the trajectory or if it was intentionally misaimed subconsciously.
Concurrently, Miss Pieck also detached herself from the Cart Titan's body. Other Survey Corps soldiers, seeing Pieck on the verge of death, immediately prepared to deliver the finishing blow. However, Captain Magath timely led his warriors in a counterattack, covering Pieck's escape.
Gabi and Falco quickly lifted Pieck and fled into a building. Galliard, enraged, felt that not only Warrior Zeke but also Pieck had fallen victim. The thought fueled his desire to eliminate Eren.
Galliard then swiftly lunged at Eren. Eren, however, retaliated with a hardened punch, smashing towards Galliard. But Galliard, with agile movements, evaded Eren's attack, and in the same instant, bit off Eren's right arm.
Seizing the advantage, Galliard followed up with a strike, like a "Nine Yin White Bone Claw," injuring Eren. Eren could only desperately use his hardening crystal to block, but to his surprise, the Jaw Titan's claws managed to scratch the crystal.
Eren observed the scratched crystal on his hand, lost in thought. Perhaps this was the unique power of the Jaw Titan, but Galliard was far too crude, not on the same level as Ymir's Jaw Titan.
On the other side, Gabi and Falco anxiously checked Pieck's condition. Her injuries were too severe; the healing brought by Titan power could not keep up. Gabi anxiously asked Falco where Reiner was. Falco, however, didn't know how to explain to Gabi.
Falco informed Gabi of Reiner's location, but he felt it was best not to disturb Reiner at that moment. Hearing this, Gabi said nothing more. Gabi then walked towards the window, intending to observe the battle.
At that precise moment, the roar of airships swept across the entire battlefield. Looking up, amidst the darkness of night, a giant airship, guided by searchlights on the ground, sailed towards the Reberio containment zone. Inside the airship, Hange, with excitement, commanded Olo-Olo to pilot the airship at a low altitude and slow speed into Reberio.
The plan was to pick up all their comrades from the containment zone along the way. This was Hange's mission; the opportunity was singular. Missing the airship would mean certain doom. If the airship was shot down midway, it would be collective suicide.
Hange couldn't help but marvel at the madness of the plan. Meanwhile, Galliard noticed the enemy's intent and prepared to destroy the low-flying airship. However, a whirlwind slash from the Anti-Titan weapon directly severed Galliard's legs. Galliard immediately fell from the sky, only to be firmly grasped by Eren.
Eren retaliated by tearing off Galliard's arm and then delivered a fierce kick to his body.
Galliard lost all ability to resist. Eren then shoved the War Hammer Titan's core into the Jaw Titan's mouth.
Using the Jaw Titan's sharp teeth, cracks appeared in the War Hammer Titan's crystal. Eren immediately intensified his pressure on the Jaw Titan's mouth. As the crystal shattered, the War Hammer Titan exploded.
Eren then immediately began consuming the spinal fluid of the War Hammer Titan, and the memories of the War Hammer Titan flooded his mind. After consuming the War Hammer Titan, Eren intended to also seize the Jaw Titan, which was now completely powerless to resist.
It could only be at Eren's mercy. Eren then grabbed Galliard by the neck, preparing to tear into him. Just then, Gabi, from a balcony, desperately cried out for Reiner.
Even Falco, who had initially been reluctant to disturb Reiner, joined the chorus of calls for Reiner. Their cries echoed across the entire battlefield, and Reiner, deep underground, naturally heard their pleas.
At that moment, Reiner felt the outside was too noisy; he just wanted to be alone. Yet, the children's desperate cries were so piercing. After a surge of anxiety, Reiner chose to open his eyes once more.
Reiner couldn't understand why these brats wouldn't let him die in peace. Just as Eren was about to devour Galliard, a flash of golden light illuminated the battlefield as the Sea Titan reappeared.
