[The soldiers should feel grateful, really. Ikki isn't making sure that they are dead so they can actually get away with their lives if they feign to be dead or just stay down, trembling because those pirates definitively aren't normal, and they weren't prepared to face this kind of threat. They are lucky, the ones at the fort in Nuevo Empieza weren't so much. Ikki had made sure that none of the soldiers he crossed paths with were left mentally broken or dead. If the display of violence now is grim, the one back then, when he smashed heads against walls and floors, cracking them open like nuts and pierced chests with his fist was much worse.
Ikki keeps ignoring Selphie and her looks towards him, no matter what Ace may say, words didn't fill up someone's energy and hers was running low. Instead, he busies himself with making sure that the area is clear and that the soldiers won't move for a while unless it's to run away. When Ace calls for him, though, he turns to look at him and approaches to hear the next orders. To say that he's pleased to hear that Selphie is given the same orders as him would be an absolute lie, but once more he chooses to not say anything.
He's in a crew after all, as much as he normally prefers to work solo, and as much as he would prefer for her to sit and rest for at least five freaking minutes, he knows that he can't go solo like that. Specially not when the captain orders it. That doesn't mean he can't give her a look that says that he's not going to be her babysitter, though. She has a mouth and a working brain, she should know better than anyone when rest would do her well, if she doesn't... It's not his problem. And if she's so bad at judging herself that she gets killed... Then she better not return to life like Sora did because he would kill her again himself if she did.]
Roger. Anything else?
[Because once he starts moving he's not going to stop until he's done with his job. And he still has plenty of energy to run at close his top speed.]
