Cart Titan

After the Eldians in Fort Salta are transformed into Titans, Pieck is given the task of helping Reiner prevent the source from returning to Eren while Mikasa and Levi engage Eren directly with Armin. She attacks the source directly, but is quickly overwhelmed by the army of pure Titans along with Reiner and Annie.After Eren's death, the Cart Titan power ceased to exist along with the Power of the Titans

As the flying boat reaches Eren, it comes under fire from the Beast Titan. As the rest of the group jump from the boat, Pieck grabs the explosives and drags them out of the boat with her. Transforming midair, Pieck transports the explosives in her Titan's mouth while her comrades engage the Beast Titan. They make quick work of the Beast, but Zeke is not found in its nape. Pieck and the group retreat to give Armin room to transform and uncover Zeke's location with the blast, but he is overtaken by an army of Titans which begins generating atop Eren's Titan. Levi devises a plan to save him, but Pieck reveals that the Titans they are facing are former inheritors of the Nine Titans. Realizing that Eren can generate an infinite number of Titans, Pieck tries to rush to his nape on her own and use the explosives to kill him. She manages to set the explosives around his nape, but before she can set them off, her Titan gets impaled by Lara Tybur's War Hammer Titan.Exiting her Titan, Pieck quickly transforms again and kills the War Hammer Titan. She uses her Titan to kill nearby Titans attacking Jean, before ejecting from her Titan as it is torn apart. Transforming once more in midair, Pieck explains to Jean that the Cart Titan's endurance effectively allows her to transform as many times as she wants, essentially allowing her endless opportunities to fight the Titans spawning around them.Pieck's regeneration abilities reach their limit and leave her unable to heal her injuries, requiring Jean to return and save her. After she and Jean are saved by the Galliard brothers' Titans, Pieck transforms again and joins her resurrected comrades in holding off the remaining hostile Titans.

In order to gather companions, the Cart Titan feigns an attack on the Yeagerists' headquarters, and uses the chaos to abduct Jean Kirstein, Onyankopon, and Yelena. After shaking off any pursuers, Pieck rendezvous with her comrades, and later joins with the other members of the makeshift alliance.The following day, the Cart Titan is sent to scout Paradis's docks to see if it will be safe for the group to follow Eren. Pieck returns from her mission to reveal that the Yeagerists have occupied the docks in anticipation of retaliation against Eren.During the ensuing conflict, it is decided to take the flying boat to Odiha. The Cart Titan alongside its passengers then evacuate to the Azumabito's ship. As the Armored and Female Titan are overrun, Falco Grice rushes into the battle transforming into the Jaw Titan. The Titans along with the Survey Corps are able to defeat the Yeagerists but Falco quickly loses control of his Titan and attacks his allies. The Cart Titan's nape is almost crushed with Pieck inside. However, the Cart Titan is able to restrain the Jaw Titan long enough for Magath to remove Falco from his Titan.

After destroying the Marleyan airships, Zeke attacks the Cart Titan by throwing rubble from the Wall. Avoiding engaging Zeke in a firefight, the Cart Titan takes cover by clinging to the side of the Wall but is soon forced to flee across it due to a group of pursuing Yeagerists. As the Cart's pursuers are distracted maneuvering into a pincer, Pieck uses the opportunity to exit her Titan and feign defeat. While Zeke, and the pursuers are confused, General Magath shoots the Beast Titan through the nape, sending it plummeting down the Wall.Soon afterwards, Pieck returns to Titan form and reequips the anti-Titan artillery cannon. They fire another round into Eren's Titan's head, and readjust to aim at the Beast, who had survived the earlier attack. The pursuing Yeagerists run interference, forcing Pieck to fend them off. After killing all but one of them, the Cart Titan fires on Zeke again, seemingly finishing him off. Before they can fire at Eren, a soldier knocks off the artillery with a Thunder Spear, and another soldier then kills the last members of the crew defending her. Pieck proclaims it is over, before going to attack her assailants, who begin grappling towards her. Before the Cart Titan can engage its two assailants, Wall Maria begins to crack underfoot, signifying the beginning of the Rumbling.The Cart Titan and Magath retreat from Shiganshina's remains and observe Marley's airships leaving the island. While discussing the situation, the two are interrupted by an approaching soldier. Pieck prepares to attack but stops when the soldier insists that they and their partner are harmless. After finding their goals align, Pieck and Magath agree to join forces with the two.

War for Paradis arc

About one month after the Raid on Liberio, Pieck makes use of her Titan to sneak into the Walls, eventually infiltrating the Yeagerists once inside.In Shiganshina District, Pieck comes into contact with Eren Yeager, luring him into an ambush by the Jaw Titan. Though the initial sneak attack fails, Pieck is freed from her shackle which had been binding her to Gabi, allowing her to transform into the Cart Titan.After Gabi climbs into the Cart Titan's mouth, it runs away to meet with General Magath and his soldiers. The Cart Titan fills in Magath on the situation's details, surmising that the Founding Titan's powers will be activated once Zeke and Eren come into contact. Once Pieck finishes outfitting her Titan with an anti-Titan artillery cannon, Magath climbs inside, before the Cart Titan and the soldiers manning its cannon scale Wall Maria. As the Jaw and Armored Titan struggle against Eren's Titan, the Cart Titan fires a round into its head, compromising Eren's mobile abilities. After reloading, they shoot Eren through the head again, though the arrival of the Beast Titan ruins the Warriors' opportunity to finish him off.After destroying the Marleyan airships, Zeke attacks the Cart Titan by throwing rubble from the Wall. Avoiding engaging Zeke in a firefight, the Cart Titan takes cover by clinging to the side of the Wall but is soon forced to flee across it due to a group of pursuing Yeagerists. As the Cart's pursuers are distracted maneuvering into a pincer, Pieck uses the opportunity to exit her Titan and feign defeat. While Zeke, and the pursuers are confused, General Magath shoots the Beast Titan through the nape, sending it plummeting down the Wall.

Marley arc

Four years later, Pieck is present at the battle of Fort Slava during the climax of the Marley Mid-East War, but the use of her Cart Titan is prohibited under orders from Commander Magath, who could not risk losing a Titan to the Mid-East Allied Forces' anti-Titan artillery. However, once cadet Gabi Braun destroys the armored train carrying the artillery using explosives, Pieck is able to join the battle alongside Porco Galliard's Jaw Titan. Equipped with fully functional battle armor with four machine gun turrets manned by Marleyan soldiers, the "Panzer Unit,"[19] on the Cart Titan's back, Pieck enters the trenches of the Allies and destroys their bunkers, eliminating the outer defenses of Fort Slava.During the Raid on Liberio, Pieck has her Panzer Unit equip her Titan with the heavy machine-gun armament. Though it takes time, she believes it would be perfect against the anti-personnel vertical maneuvering equipment. When she arrives at the battlefield, she and the Panzer Unit take the Survey Corps by surprise with an artillery barrage from the roof of a building, saving Porco and killing several of the nearby soldiers. She stays perched on the roof and joins the rest of the Titans of Marley in a showdown against the Survey Corps.However, both the Cart Titan and the Panzer Unit are eventually ripped apart by Thunder Spears and the Titan plummets into the streets below. Jean Kirstein attempts to finish it off while Falco tries in vain to stop him; however, a burst of steam coming out of the Cart Titan hits Jean, and the Thunder Spear he shot misses its target. Pieck emerges unconscious and injured from the Titan's body and is rescued and taken away by Falco and Gabi.

Return to Shiganshina arc

Pieck's Cart Titan later appears during the battle of Shiganshina District. During the night before the battle, Pieck keeps watch for Survey Corps movement in the desolate regions of Wall Maria south of Trost District. Upon seeing the advancing soldiers, Pieck returns to the ruins of Shiganshina and informs Zeke, Reiner, and Bertolt of their approach.Later that day, Pieck's Cart Titan remains at the side of Zeke's Beast Titan, serving as a cargo mule of sorts for the Warriors' various supplies in addition to fetching boulders for Zeke to throw at their enemies. Bertolt is kept hidden in a barrel atop the Cart Titan's back as a plan B against the Survey Corps; upon Reiner's defeat at the hands of the Survey Corps' Thunder Spears, Bertolt is removed from the Cart Titan and thrown by the Beast Titan into the city. Shortly afterward, the Survey Corps chooses to engage in a suicidal charge against the Beast Titan in order to buy time for Captain Levi to move in for a counterattack. Pieck ventures away from the scene as Zeke decimates the Survey Corps, only to be quickly defeated by Levi who catches him unawares. Before Zeke can be captured by Levi, Pieck's Cart Titan comes to Zeke's rescue and carries his dismembered human form away.

Battle Cartman Pieck's Cart Titan during the battle of Fort Slava Sitting atop the Cart Titan's back, Zeke guides Pieck into Shiganshina to rescue Reiner and Bertolt. They find Bertolt incapacitated and captured by Eren Yeager but after seeing Levi atop the Wall, they leave him for dead. Searching elsewhere in the district, the Cart Titan rescues Reiner from capture before climbing atop Wall Maria where the Warriors are safe.With the battle over, the three survivors return to Marley.

Clash of the Titans arc

Five years into the mission to reclaim the Founding Titan, Pieck journeys to Paradis Island with Zeke and a contingent of Marleyan soldiers, using her Cart Titan to carry supplies for them. She is present as Zeke and the soldiers transform the inhabitants of a small village into Titans.

Speed

The Cart Titan also possessed great speed, similar to the Jaw Titan, which was used during the Battle of Shiganshina to retrieve a defeated Zeke Yeager and Reiner Braun while also catching Levi and Hange, two of the Walls' most talented soldiers, off guard.

Quadrupedal form

The Cart Titan stood out as unusual among the Nine Titans for its quadrupedal form, which may have been the source of its "Cart Titan" name. As a side-effect to inheriting the Cart Titan and staying in its form for extended periods of time, the inheritor was liable to forget how to walk normally and would instead crawl like the Cart Titan. Pieck was often seen crawling similarly to the Cart Titan when in the presence of few people, and also used crutches when getting around.In addition to its combat abilities, the Cart Titan was often used to carry supplies or troops during times of conflict. Examples of this include during the course of the Great Titan War, as well as the Battle of Shiganshina District and the Marley Mid-East War thousands of years later. In addition, the Cart Titan was also used as a mobile gunnery platform, being able to wear harnesses that could hold various weapons; this included several machine gun turrets and much larger weapons such as an anti-Titan artillery cannon.

Endurance

The Cart Titan possessed a level of endurance greater than that of the other members of the Nine Titans, allowing for the inheritor to partake in long missions without the need for rest. Its absorption resistance allowed it to maintain its Titan form for long periods of time, making it an ideal candidate for a variety of tactics, including the clearing of trenches and long-term operations into enemy territory. Likewise, Pieck claims that the Cart Titan's power allowed her to perform hundreds of consecutive transformations before she started to feel fatigued. On the downside, the Cart Titan had much lower defenses than the other Nine Titans and was more likely to be taken down by a critical or severe blow. Another major disadvantage was that Cart Titan appeared to not have the same regenerative speed as the other Nine Titans, requiring a longer period of time to heal grave wounds received on the possessor's body.

The Cart Titan was one of the Nine Titans with a quadrupedal form possessing devastating speed and endurance.
