Zeke runs a quick strategic assessment in his head. With four Dreamers on the scene, they still had very little chance of vanquishing all these Torments -- it'd take a proper Unit working in familiar sync to handle this many smoothly. That being said, they could make a proper defense and, with luck, retreat in orderly fashion instead of a desperate rout.
This is actually pretty good, he decides! Rarely do opportunities come up to teach others when discretion is the better part of valor. Instilling in younger Dreamers, or even experienced ones, the notion that even if you're not going to get hurt in the waking world, it's still okay to withdraw, is a lesson that'll pay off in the long run for sure!
And if things go roughly to hell, he can always Unleash Shining Justice.
"With this many Torments, a Nightmare could arise. Watch out for any of them gathering! If you see that, direct any long range attacks into that cluster while melee pulls back, and put up any shields between the melee and it. Anyone getting overwhelmed pull back behind me, I can take hits! STRATOSPHERIC THUNDEEER!"
The size and mass of Zeke's ridiculous sword count for a heck of a lot in a fight like this, as the lightning-charged blade sweeps through several of the Torments to send them flying. More rush in to take their place, though, leaving Chaosbringer to parry and exchange blows with them as they scrabble in to try to take him down. The only people who think he's only a chuuni idiot have never seen him fight. (Though he totally is a chuuni idiot. Let's not mince words here.)
