[@Lunar Templar] Alex managed to avoid the shot, but he could still feel the force of power from the shot.  an RG Model was nothing to take lightly for sure.  Alex talked to himself: "If i stay this far away, I won't get much of a chance to hit her with any of my shots.  But if I get closer, it'll be harder to dodge her buster rifle.  *One second later*  Oh well.  Sometimes you got to be bold."  With that, he charges towards the Zero.  He barrel rolls to avoid another shot and fires the twin Balaena beam cannons from the shoulders upside down.

As the Guntank Block retreats, the Gundam lands on the beach.  That was a close shot from the cannon.  He knew it would be likely that she may start shelling the beachhead from a distance.
