While Freyja was making a complete mockery of the three Admirals, Garp and Kuzan were having their own battle off in the distance; it was rather hard to miss since their battle had been engulfed within ice, creating a frozen scenery of hell. As for Sengoku and Akainu, they attempted to stop Kaido, but they were met with fierce resistance, the former strongest creature living up to his name as he slowly but surely overpowered the two, his awakening proving too much for them to handle.
Blackbeard and Bullet were spearheading the army, charging through the army of two hundred million, yet they were brought to a halt when six of the seven Seraphim intercepted them; however, the two powerhouses were far from alone, Chala, Grand, Reiju, Burgess, Auger, Pizarro, Devon, King, Queen, and Jack helped them, changing the tides as they began to forcefully push back the six Seraphim with their aggressive and relentless attacks.
With the war in full effect, arguably the smartest and one of the strongest members of the Frenzy pirates was nowhere to be seen.

"I can feel the clashing of haki from way down here." "That's Chaos Kong's haki; it seems whoever he's fighting must be giving him one hell of a struggle." Remarked Betty and Sabo, respectively, as the former released a puff of smoke while the two stared at the top of the Redline, where violent and powerful waves of haki originated from.
"I now understand your concern about Chaos Kong, Lindbergh." Said Karasu softly as he stared at the turbulent sky, only for it to suddenly be illuminated by a bright blue flash, prompting Lindbergh's fur to stand on end.
"Tsk, you think I was just spouting nonsense? I should've killed him back when I had the chance." Remarked Lindbergh with a twitching expression as he eyed Karasu before folding his arms while shaking his head, prompting a hand to touch his shoulder.
"I'm not so sure about that, Lindbergh; without him, it would've taken much longer to get rid of the Marines, not to mention the actual act of invading Mariejois." Said Morley lightly as he gently patted Lindverghs shoulder, causing him to grumble before reluctantly nodding in agreement.
"Hoho, the way I see it is, without him, any attempt to invade Mariejois would've been a failure." Remarked Sebas softly with a faint chuckle as he patted his chest, his words causing Sabo to nod.
"Yeah, we may not like to admit it since Chaos Kong is a terrible person and is the Captain of an even worse group of pirates, but without his help, who knows how much longer it would've taken us to finally gain the confidence to take on the World Government." Remarked Sabo lightly as he tapped his pipe on his shoulder while glancing at Sebas, his sudden voice prompting the four Revolutionary Army Commanders to quickly surround him.
"Hoho, what cruel words, Chief of Staff Sabo, though, I will not deny them." Said Sebas lightly as he glanced at Sabo in amusement, only to raise his hands and block an attack of numerous black crows with ease.
"Ho, for being our supposed allies, that isn't nice, Karasu." "Sneaking atop the ship of a supposed ally doesn't seem very welcoming." Remarked Sebas and Karasu, respectively, as the latter narrowed his eyes, prompting the former to nod in agreement.
"Hmm, I would argue against you, but I didn't come here to partake in friendly conversation; I've come with a way to sneak you all into the depths of Mariejois." Stated Sebas lightly as he waved his hand, crushing the black crows into soot that floated back towards Karasu while Sabo and everyone else skeptically looked at him.
"What do you have in mind, Sebas 'Grandfather' Visage?" Asked Dragon as he suddenly appeared with a flash of lightning from atop the Redline, followed by a clap of thunder.
Although it was tempting, after my first encounter with Captain, I learned not to enter everyone's mind just because I had the ability to, though I was sure Dragon held a lot of information I'd love to learn about.
"One moment, if you will, Sir Dragon." Said Sebas lightly as he glanced at Dragon before raising his head, prompting everyone else to do the same.
"AHHHHHH!!" Yelled Janet fearfully as she tightly held her camera in hand, only for her to be brought to an immediate halt before Sebas.
"Haa, I'm alive, thank goodness." Muttered Janet with a sigh of relief as she glanced at the deck, only to notice Sebas to her left.
"Tsk, I thought you were supposed to be a gentleman, Sebas! What kind of gentlemen forcefully throws a woman off the Redline and has her fall to her supposed death!?" Exclaimed Janet angrily as she glared at Sebas, who waved his hand, gently placing her on her feet.
"Hoho, I do apologize, but it was rather urgent, as you can see." Replied Sebas apologetically as he looked at Janet before gesturing to Dragon and co, causing her eyes to shine.
"The Revolutionary Army top commanders!? Awe, Sebas, you shouldn't have!" Stated Janet in joy as she hugged Sebas before quickly taking pictures with her camera, causing him to chuckle.
"Janet Cander. Former WENP journalist and Granddaughter of Julius Cander. Eaten the Foto Foto No Mi, turning her into a photo human." Remarked Dragon calmly as he looked at Janet, who was taken about by his words.
"Eh, did you know my Grandfather?" "No. But I respected him as he was one of the very few people who wished to spread the truth to the world." Remarked Janet and Dragon, respectively, as the former shook his head while the latter nodded before proudly raising her head.
"Heh, so Sebas brought me here for a reason; what is it? Just know I'm not free. If you need my help, I demand an interview with each one of you." Stated Janet with a faint smile, only for her to narrow her eyes while pointing at the six, causing their expressions to twitch.
"Janet here can easily take a picture of your Army, and then I can bring her to the top of the Redline, allowing for easy infiltration without the World government ever discovering a thing." Said Sebas with a confident smile as he gestured to Janet, who nodded her head while creating a camera with her hands.
"How can we trust you?" "I don't." Said Sabo and Lindbergh, respectively, as the former stepped forward with a skeptical gaze.
"Hoho, trust me? My word will have to suffice as I will not put myself in a disadvantageous position just to earn your trust." Replied Sebas lightly as he glanced at Sabo while narrowing his eyes, his words causing them to frown.
"Hmm, well, I can trust him." Said Sabo lightly as he approached Sebas before shaking his hand with a smirk, causing him to laugh.
"Is that because I haven't attempted to enter anyone's mind?" "Yeah, that's part of the reason." Said Sebas and Sabo, respectively, as the latter nodded in agreement, causing the former to laugh in amusement.
"What must we do, Janet?" Asked Dragon lightly as he shifted his focus to Janet, his words causing everyone's faces to twitch, though they remained silent, trusting in their superiors.
"Um, other than promising me those interviews, nothing really; I just need to be high enough that I can get everyone into a singular picture." Replied Janet softly as he tapped her chin while glancing at Dragon, who merely nodded in response.
"Well, let's get to it; I'm eager to bring down the monster known as the World Government." Said Sabo with a grin, one that everyone could agree with.

"Beastly Extinction!" "Cerberus!" "Naginata Rasetsu!" "Divine Departure!" Yelled Diddy, Rocks, Whitebeard, and Roger, respectively, as they violently attacked each other, their haki creating a mighty explosion that shook all of Mairejois.
Facing the attack of three of the most powerful pirates to ever live, I merely laughed in joy as I surged my haki in response, overpowering their own, yet they weren't going to be so easily defeated.
"Gurarararara, I never thought I'd see the day when we all fought on the same side." Said Whitebeard with a smirk as he dug his feet into the ground, pushing against Diddy's bo-staff with all of his strength, causing the world beneath him to tremble in response.
"Wahahahaha, neither did I, but this is fun!" Remarked Roger with a smile as he looked at Whitebeard and Rocks before shifting his focus to Diddy, whose bo-staff was akin to an immovable object.
"Xebahahahaha, shut up and push harder! He's gaining ground." Yelled Rocks with a feral smile as he stared into Diddy's verticle-slit eyes.
Just as I began to slowly push the three backward, Linlin, Shanks, and Shiki joined in, combining their attacks with the other three, causing me to be overpowered as I was flung into the distance while coughing blood.
"HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!! C'MON, I'M NOT DONE!" Yelled Diddy with a ferocious grin as he regained his bearings before kicking the air, quickly lunging towards the six with seemingly endless energy.
"Tch, what a freaking monster; even after all that, only a single gash appeared on his body? What the hell is he made of?" Asked Shiki in annoyance as he grunted while attacking Diddy with his swords, launching blades of sharp wind that sliced through the air.
"It's his haki; his haki is unbelievably powerful, but the worst part is that he's still holding back." "Tsk, he's yet to take away our observation or armament haki." Said Shanks and Linlin, respectively, their words surprising everyone.
