Tilting my head in confusion at his weird antics, I shook my head and powerfully flapped my wings, lunging straight at him with my elongated nails, which were more like claws, considering their thickness. Nearing him, I slashed down toward him, yet he was able to block it, seemingly without too much difficulty; seeing that, I wrapped his arm with my tail and pulled him down, knocking him off balance, which I then used as a chance to kick him in the abdomen, flinging him several meters in the distance.
"I'm no fighter, but when you've lived with that battle-junky maniac for several years, some things were bound to rub off onto me." Remarked Freyja with her dual voice as she glared at Mini in the distance, squinting once she realized her attack did minimal damage if any at all.
"That was a strong attack. I'll give you that, but you're out of your element. If that was all you had, just give up now; it'll save both of us time." Remarked Mini calmly as he patted his seemingly pristine stomach with no signs of harm whatsoever, causing Freyja to click her tongue in annoyance.
'I might've underestimated him; I'm really going to have to use all my strength for this battle; even then, I don't know if I'll win. Tch, dammit, seems like Diddy's off the table.' Mused Freyja with a frown as she glanced at Diddy and Lindbergh fighting in the distance before focusing on Mini before her, giving up the idea of ambushing Diddy.
Seeing Mini speedily approach me using the same skill Diddy uses, I set my forearms on fire and propelled my body forward with a mighty flap of my wings. Once we neared each other, we erupted into a furious battle, with punches and kicks flying everywhere, yet, despite having eaten a Devil Fruit, I still wasn't able to acquire the upper hand during our exchanges; every one of his attacks was devastating, and if it weren't for my robust body Satan Soul provides, I'd already have been defeated.
(Note: Her appearance is on Discord.)
'Ugh, even so, my bones are cracking underneath his every punch and kick; they are far stronger than they look.' Thought Freyja with an ugly expression as she crossed her arms and blocked Mini's punch, her arms feeling like she'd just received a full-strength attack from Diddy.
Thanks to the copious amount of vitality I keep in reserve for situations like this, I'm somewhat confident if it really comes down to it, I'll manage to wear him out, but If possible, I'd prefer not to be forced to use my reserves. It's taken thousands of people for my reserves to get to this level, and unless my life is genuinely in danger, I'm very reluctant to use large quantities of it.
Pushing Mini off me, I opened my palm toward him and launched several fireballs toward him, yet he punched through them with ease before charging right at me like an unstoppable force, something I'm used to, considering I've been forced to be Diddy's training dummy for years on end.
Grunting, I lunged toward him as well, knowing throughout my numerous fights with Diddy, I couldn't allow Mini to stay on the offensive for long, since otherwise I'd be quickly pushed into a corner with the only option to remain on the defense until I'm eventually defeated.
Coating my wings in fire, I flapped them once more, increasing my speed as I swiftly neared Mini, taking him by surprise as I grabbed his arms and violently kneed him in the chin before following up with a headbutt using my two horns. Although I had used every ounce of strength in those two attacks, he seemed to brush them off with minimal injuries as he kicked me in the stomach, causing me to cough and spit in pain.
Releasing my hold on his arms, I quickly flapped my wings, evading one of his punches, yet his assault was relentless, forcing me into the defensive while I waited for a chance to counter-attack.
'There!' Thought Freyja as she an opening in Mini's attacks, using that chance and kicking him in the side, flinging him several meters back, but other than that, he seemed relatively fine while Freyja had seen better days.
"Tch, I hate to admit, though I have to give Diddy props, he may be a lunatic, but he's strong; to think he's confident in beating you in a fight." Said Freyja with a slight pant as she wiped blood leaking from her mouth, her body covered in numerous wounds, though most were rather superficial; however, that may not be the case for long.
"And you're a glutton for punishment; even after taking so many of my haki-infused attacks, you're still raring to go." Remarked Mini in good condition with a slight frown as he looked at Freyja's state, knowing it'd take some time to whittle her down.
"Hmm, haki-infused attacks? What's that?" Asked Freyja curiously, using this moment of respite to catch her breath.
"Nothing you need to know, though I'm sure you'll learn about it in Impel Down, as it is filled with many experienced and powerful criminals." Said Mini with a shake of his head as he powerfully kicked the air, propelling himself toward Freyja.
"Experienced and powerful criminals? Heh, Captain would call that Heaven; I'll make sure to keep that place in mind, Impel Down." Stated Freyja with a slight smirk as she mightily flapped her flaming wings and flew toward the incoming Mini with incredible speed, engaging in yet another intense battle, though just like Diddy, she was on the losing end.

"Monsters." Muttered Scar in awe while audibly gulping as he glanced at Diddy vs. Lindbergh and Freyja vs. Mini, desiring to one day wield such power.
"Yeah, you could say that again." Added Grand as he ignored the war happening around them and observed the two's intense and awe-inspiring battle, at least until they were almost hit with a cannonball.
"Ho, I know you two are fascinated by Freyja's and Captain's strength, but pay attention to your surroundings. Don't forget where you are at; this is a war. You're not like Freyja and Captain, who can shrug off cannon fire and explosions; if that cannonball hit you two, while neither of you may die, Scar, you'll lose a limb at the very least, and Grand will be out of commission for several days." Stated Sebas in an admonishing tone as he floated down from the air while hovering three cannon balls just a meter in front of them before sending them back to where they came from.
"Sorry, Father." Said Grand and Scar simultaneously as they quickly got back into battle mode.
"Anyways, Father, why are you here? Weren't you fighting against some marines?" Asked Scar curiously as he used his quick reflexes to dodge the gunfire from an approaching revolutionist before stabbing his dagger in his head, killing him.
"Hoho, I've already finished; they weren't anything like Vice-admiral Mini that Freyja is fighting, so it was rather easy." Remarked Sebas with a light chuckle as he pointed toward the five people floating in the air behind him; although each one was still technically alive, they might as well be dead.
"Huh, seems like Father is also a Monster, just like Freyja and Captain; took care of five Marine Captains like it was nothing." Said Grand with a slight grin as he grabbed a man riding a horse and threw him toward another rider in the distance, killing them both on impact.
"Hoho, I appreciate the compliments; I've been putting in hard work, so it feels splendid that someone noticed. Though I'll have to refuse your claim, Grand, I wouldn't quite say I'm at their level of strength; I'm confident I can reach Freyja's level of strength, but Captains, on the other hand, watching him battle it out against Lindbergh, a commander of the Revolutionary Army, I don't know." Said Sebas with a slight frown as he observed Freyja and Diddy, though, in reality, he was being a little humble.
"Besides, that isn't even taking into account Captain's transformation he has on the night of the full moon; even though I only managed to get a glimpse of it in his mind when we first met, it contained such power." Muttered Sebas with a slight frown as he subconsciously shivered from the thought, which would cause one only to imagine how Freyja felt, considering she's witnessed and experienced its power firsthand.
"Hmm, what did you say, Father?" Asked Trenza as she looked up at Sebas while using her stolen pistols to snipe people from distances one wouldn't even think given her weapons.
"Hmm, nothing dear; just an old man's mumbling." Said Sebas with a soft smile as he lightly shook his head and waved his hand, causing the five floating marines to be shot in various directions.
Since my fight was over, I looked around, noting that besides the area around Captains and Lindbergh's fight, the war was still just as deadly, although there didn't seem to be any prominent people I needed to worry about. The marines I had just fought weren't that strong, so I'm pretty confident Scar and Grand could deal with one of them each need be, but I figured it was better to be safe than sorry, especially considering there were five of them.
'However, while everything seems to be going fine over here, that's not the same case for Captain and Freyja; they are both fighting a losing battle. Hmm, what to do?' Mused Sebas with a thoughtful expression as his psionic force field around him blocked any and all projectiles from hitting him.
"I'll be back; I've got something important to do." Said Sebas with a thoughtful expression, the three nodding in response as he floated high into the sky, his figure eventually disappearing amidst the smoke-filled sky.
