Peter is opening his ship as shelter again for non combatants or people who needs to take a break and hide for the monsters. If Akira wants to go there, feel free to assume Peter let him knows about it. He will make a network post to let people know, but just in case...

He will be using his own Chimera's Claw to fight, however, most likely as a dragon, a giant hawk, or a t-rex. Akira could see him doing that.
