"Retreat? Do you think that's possible?" Gel was now completely certain of the enemy identity of the Pure Black Mask. He wasn't the reckless type, so he was unwilling to casually groom his enemies, but he also wasn't someone afraid of trouble. Since he had confirmed the opponent's identity, the actions to follow were obvious.
As soon as he spoke, Luke had already darted out. While Gel was conversing with the Pure Black Mask, Luke had already begun moving quietly; this was the tacit understanding between the two. Even though they hadn't completely confirmed the enemy's identity at the time, based on their experience, they knew the appropriate response to the situation.
Gel naturally began speaking to draw the opponent's attention, while Luke quietly moved to the opponent's blind spot, waiting for an opportunity to act. It was clear that Gel's words were the signal to attack, so as soon as he finished speaking, Luke pounced toward the Pure Black Mask.
