Generally 24-hour time is pronounced not as indivudual numbers when spoken, but as two two-number groups such as:

0500 > 'oh/zero five hundred'

1100 > 'eleven hundred'

1130 > 'eleven thirty'

2245 > 'twenty-two fourty-five'

If using military time, often 'hours' is placed at the end, i.e. 1600 > 'sixteen hundred hours'.

As Zuikaku is indicating that she is annoyed by having to use military time rather than 'normal' time, using the numbers straight does not convey that she is stopping mid-way into the time, whilst I believe that the words show that better, since you can cut off a word half-way through.
