I'll just copy what I already said.
The Marco vs Linlin clash seems to be going on for some time.
It most likely started here, back in chapter 992
Enough times has passed that Peros could get up above his initial position from next to Mama
to above ground
Linlin and Perospero seemed to have planned the assault on Marco, as each knew what they need to do, Linlin grabbing hold of Marco and Perospero having an arrow ready, and Linlin instructing him to do it and Peros noting he employed Mama's help
So it's a confirmed 2 on 1 against Marco.
As for the clash.
Marco matched Linlin's elemental attack head on causing destruction, with Linlin having access to all of her 3 homies
Destroyed her weapon
Prompting Linlin to double team him with her son
however, due to the interference of the sulong minks and them neutralizing Peros
Linlin decided to flee the scene
Due to the fan translation some people said she left for a more worthy adversary, however the Viz cleared it up. She didn't want the smoke and after having her advantage of another combatant on her side being neutralized she ran away because she, in her own words, could not deal with Marco now because she didn't have the soul weapons necessary to do it.
To draw a conclusion
> Clash starts out evenly
> Marco destroys one of her weapons
> Linlin uses her son to help her take care of Marco
> After having her 2vs1 advantage neutralized due to the sulong minks she flees the scene
> Tells Marco he can kill her another time
> Tells him she cannot defeat him now
