With them running away and being overwhelmed? You argument is basically "I don't like his attitude so therefore he must be weak". Story wise he obviously is going to be among the lower ranks of the 12....but that is probably still stronger then everyone else they have faced before~ That is the terror that Zeref is bringing, the fact that his lackeys just so happen to all be stronger then the bosses they fought until now.
I actually think Mashima overdid it with their power because in a way you are right as he is "1st wave of bad guys therefore he is going to be among the weakest of this group" and it has been stated that everyone of the 12 is at or above the strongest wizard saint on their continent.
isnt the first wave... all of them?
Seems only like 4-5 are coming right now? I would have to count again but didn't seem like it was all of them (as much sense as that would make).
Seems like the 1st really screwed up for being such a genius...how is she totally caught off guard by this?
we only saw a few but i thought 2 of the incoming armies had 3 each plus a few of them in the city itself
and less caught off guard more "oh shit worst case scenario" how can you prepare for an overwhelming force?
Well she stated while they were planning that Zeref isn't going to pussyfoot around and is going for the throat but now she seems surprised by it which is what seemed weird.

its definently more "oh shit he sent more then we can handle were just screwed"
I liked this chapter! Felt like it had been a while since FT members had a big 'oh crap we're in trouble this time' moment, start losing confidence and get pushed to their limit. Nice to see for a change.
So.. time for a "what's under natsu's bandage on his arm" discussion,as it's pretty obvious that the "oh shit" moment that natsu needed to unveal his hand is here.
basically he has demon markings on his arm, which allow him to turn into a dragon as his demon form (we know by now that natsu is a demon of zeref, like those of tartaros, and they could transform into a demon to become stronger)
plus++ Very first picture in the spoiler below--, that's a deformity in his arm, trying to come out. So it's 100% some kind of transformation or something is living in his arm. + Show Spoiler +

- Igneel bit the arm of Acnologia - Acnologia is missing an entire arm and plans to take it back at the dragon festival - Natsu has bandages around his arm and something is trying to come out
I thought it was obvious that Igneel got one arm off Acnologia (maybe with the power to suck out souls or whatever Acnologia did to the other dragons) and gave it to Natsu.

gave it to him when? we saw igneels final moments
and your theory is what? that Natsu chopped off his arm and stitched a new one on?
nope, she didn't even get naked yet. This chapter was just to set up the perfect Lucy fan service next week. She is undressing though. To get serious for a moment, there was a lot of battle scenes, including a new transformation for Mira (so manly lol), guys kicking each other in the nuts to keep morale up. And Brandish being in Lucy's house taking a bath :D Looks like she is blushing, but more likely just sweating from the hot water. I still like her and am happy she shows up with a plan that is not "imma destroy all of you and get rekt by the power of friendship". But some of the drawing angles once again made me realize that the Mangaka probably takes way too much pleasure in doing this. :D
But the plot did progress, new fighting form, enemy on the inside, Natsu growing up and planning his attacks T.T

what plan? she showed up without being detected and instead of fighting is now announcing herself TO THE ENEMY and giving them a chance to remove her from the fight
if Lucy had a way to seal her then she insta loses
