[While still mentally off-balance, by now Sanji realizes he needs to change his game plan if he wants to land a hit (wait, idiot, no--). So despite all protests, once he's righted on his feet and facing her, he doesn't move. With the momentum of battle pulling them into action, he suspects she'll show her cards before she can realize he's waiting for a hint.
And he gets lucky - marginally so. He notes the follow-up attack without knowing how to react besides dodge quickly and avoid his leg getting ensnared, skittering off to the left, but he's no closer to her and that's the problem.
Time to throw caution to the wind a little. He charges at her once her last attack fails, directly this time, hoping his new familiarity with her attack-style will get him closer]
