Knowing Yagyuu, though, he was already doing something to that effect.
The singular advantage to being small in a situation like this was needing less space than everyone else. Cradling her close to him, Bunta takes three seconds to study the traffic patterns and concentration points of the crowd for the best path to the stage. Then he steps down from the dais and weaves around the back. The crowd is thinner through this path on the far side of the exit. And if how tightly he holds her through the relocation is more than a safety measure, he's not aware of it. At least not until they reach the stage, and it's the most reluctant he's ever been to give his muscles a break. He chalks that up to adrenaline.
He sets her on the platform floor, climbs up, and helps hoist her back to a stand.
