While I was munching on some food and forcing my body into overdrive in order to repair my body as quickly as possible, I watched the battlefield from the outskirts, and with Whitebeard now in the fray, it was practically one-sided; none of the marines were capable of stopping him, they were only able to slow him down, and even then, they were sacrificing many of their men to do such a thing. It was honestly an amazing sight to watch the strongest man in action; not only did it give me a more accurate goal of what I've been striving for ever since I was reborn in this world, but it also helped in deepening my understanding of haki since they way he was utilizing it was so advanced compared to how I used it.
'I might as well be a child to him; his haki, it's so advanced and refined, it's insane. It's even superior to the marine who was controlling those robots.' Thought Diddy with widened eyes as he stared fixedly at Whitebeard, watching his every move as he violently swung his naginata into the battlefield, causing hundreds of marines to be flung incredibly high into the sky.
I didn't know whether it was my sheer passion and desire to enter the battle once more or because my body was healing itself at an even faster rate than I had initially expected because of Freyja's lust empowerment, but I was finally beginning to be able to move my limbs without controlling Nimbus.
"FInaLly, I-i CaN taLk Now." Said Diddy in a raspy, broken voice as he lightly rubbed his neck, causing slight waves of pain to emit from his neck.
It still hurt to speak, so I didn't intend to do it much, but now that I was finally able to move on my own, granted, I was still pretty weak right now, though like that was going to stop me; I was in the middle of a war, and who knew when I'd get such a fantastic opportunity like this again. Slowly removing Nimbus from my body, I had it float beside me while I landed on the ground, taking a second to feel my body before I got on all threes and ran towards Moby Dick; the pirates were all too preoccupied with the marines and saving Ace that they didn't really care about me, not to mention I looked like shit, so they probably all assumed I was going to die here.
Once I arrived at the Moby Dick, I ran atop the side of the ship until I got on top of it, only to spot my bo-staff, which was lodged into the bow of the ship. Controlling Nimbus to enter Naga-sa, causing cloud-like symbols to emerge onto the shaft, I summoned my bo-staff into my hand and smiled as I regained my weapon.
However, just when I was about to lunge into the battlefield, two massive cracks appeared in the very air itself, causing what felt like the entire world to shake violently, and when I looked at Marineford, I saw it tilt to the side as a part of itself separated from the ocean.
"M-My goodness. S-So this is the true strength of the strongest man?" Muttered Diddy with a ferocious expression as he stared at Marineford and the ocean in awe and desire, watching as the world itself seemed to be on the verge of destruction.
Although Whitebeard's sheer might could alter the entire island and the surrounding ocean, the three admirals stopped it before it could reach the execution platform. With Whitebeard's display of overwhelming destruction, the marines began to quickly retreat behind the wall the green titan destroyed with his body, causing me to grin as I leaped into the sky, using geppo as I kicked the air and lunged into the battlefield with Naga-sa in hand.
"Hehe, what fun!" Yelled Diddy excitedly as he enlarged his bo-staff before slamming it through the wall, destroying it even further while killing many in the process.
While I was finally enjoying the battlefield once more, with most of the marines now hidden behind the wall, they created a powerful defensive wall, halting the pirate's advance; however, what made it even worse was that Akainu was launching hundreds of blobs of magma into the sky, which landed on the frozen water, melting it away and causing the pirates to lose their footing.

At first, I didn't care and just swatted away any of the incoming blobs of magma that were each the size of a small ship, yet, as the minutes passed, I began to notice the pirate's offensive was waning, and they were even getting pushed back.
'Tsk, this isn't good; I can't have either side losing yet; I'm still enjoying myself.' Thought Diddy with a slight frown as he gazed down at the frozen ground, which was rapidly melting, only to spot Luffy.
Glancing at Luffy, I saw him speaking with Jinbe, who grabbed the water before launching him high into the sky, causing me to grin as I realized what he intended to do.
'Hehe, what a crazy bastard; I love it!' Thought Diddy with a feral grin as he glanced at Luffy flying high in the sky before looking at Sebas, Freyja, and Mael.
Kicking the air, I swiftly flew down into the battlefield and grasped Mael's shoulder, only to make a sharp turn while heading towards Sebas.
"Ugh, what the hell was that for, Captain?" Asked Mael in annoyance as he glanced at Diddy, who merely chuckled.
"Hehe, you'll figure it out soon; grab Sebas." Replied Diddy with a grin as he lowered Mael just when flying near Sebas.
Once Mael grabbed Sebas, snapping him out of whatever he was doing, I made another sharp turn as I lunged towards Freyja, who was still battling against Hancock, if you could even call it as such at this point. Tossing Mael and Sebas into the air, I built up momentum with a spin before enlarging Naga-sa and slamming it into Hancock, who managed to block it with her arms, but she was still sent flying into the distance.
"Diddy! What the fucking hell!" Yelled Freyja angrily as she turned and glared at Diddy, who simply grasped her wing before also tossing her into the sky.
"Shut up! Don't think I haven't forgotten all that vitality you stole from me!" Remarked Diddy angrily as he eyed Freyja, who scoffed before grumbling under her breath.
Once I arrived in the sky beside everyone, I lengthened Naga-sa and placed it underneath everyone's feet, prompting them to land on it.
"You three, do you see, Luffy?" Said Diddy with a grin as Freyja, Sebas, and Mael all eyed the plaza where Luffy had just landed, facing the three Admirals by himself.
"Captain, you're not-" Asked Sebas with a slight frown as he glanced at Luffy before looking at Diddy, who tightened his grasp on Naga-sa before nodding.

Widening my eyes at what Diddy was about to make us do, I turned and glared at him, yet I was unfortunately too slow.
"Hehe, good luck!" Stated Diddy with a large smile as he violently chucked them towards the plaza, causing them to speedily fly through the air.
'FUCKING MONKEY BASTARD!' Thought Freyja furiously as she glared at Diddy with murderous eyes.
Angrily cursing Diddy at his suicidal plan of sending us to fight three Admirals when we were utterly helpless against just one, yet before I could further think, I regained my bearing and spread my wings, landing on the ground in front of the exhausted, wounded, and weakened Luffy as I coated my whole body in haki, blocking Akaniu from attacking him while Mael and Sebas stopped Aokiji and Kizaru respectfully.
"Insatiable." Muttered Akainu with a deep scowl as he eyed Freyja, who had managed to stop his enlarged magma fist, though just barely.
"Hehe, glad you remember me." Said Freyja with a faint, wicked smile as she narrowed her eyes at Akainu.
"Go on ahead, Luffy." "We'll handle these fools." Said Sebas and Mael respectfully as they stopped Kizaru and Aokiji, their words causing Luffy to smile faintly.
"Ho? Fools?" Said Aokiji with a raised eyebrow as he eyed Mael, who melted his ice before it could reach him.
"Hmm, what an old man." Muttered Kizaru lightly as he glanced at Sebas, who distorted the air around him, causing the beams of light to barely miss him.
With a grunt, I used all of the strength I could physically muster to push Akainu back, and although I very much didn't want to face someone this strong, since I was already here, I might as well see it through to the end.
'If I live through this, I'm doing something terrible to Diddy.' Thought Freyja viciously as she coated her elongated nails in an inky black flame.
Just as I was about to attack Akainu, Luffy suddenly shouted, grabbing our attention as we quickly looked up at the execution platform, watching the executioners attempting to execute Ace, yet before they managed to do so, a bundle of sand suddenly appeared and morphed into Crocodile, who killed the two executioners.
However, before we could do anything further, all four of us were attacked and sent flying out of the plaza by a wave of ice, though while that happened, thanks to the green titan, who happened to regain consciousness, the Whitebeard pirates managed to finally enter the place with a hidden ship that had just suddenly appear from underneath the water.
"Ugh, I'm fucking killing Diddy." Muttered Freyja in a pain-filled voice as she landed on the ground while burning the ice off her body.
