After the pirates had rammed the ship, Itzal had to steady himself for a moment due to the fact that he was almost knocked off his feet. Even if he had been, he always had the uncanny ability to land on his feet, however he didn't like that he had been rustled from his thoughts, especially by a bunch of sloppy pirates. When Cassius gave them the call to fight, Itzal smirked as he readied himself and his scythe before he started to gain up on one of the pirates, despite his nervousness in previous battles, Itzal found himself overflowing with confidence this time.

"Hey, you!" Itzal called out to one of the pirates, giving him a nice cat-like grin as he twirled his scythe. "Wanna dance~?" He asked playfully as he got into a battle stance and waited for the pirate to advance him. He was confident that his speed would overcome the pirate and he wouldn't stand a chance against him. However, he wasn't going to believe that something amiss could happen. He had to be on his toes like always as he fought.
