She clearly wanted them on her side very very badly lmfao:
Well first of all, it is not the Admirals’ job to conquer territory and never has been lmfao. That’s the job of the Holy Knights and the Gorosei. Go ask Garling and the Jobosei why they were never man enough to fuck with Elbaf lol.
Second of all Elbaf might be militaristically above the WG. Dorry and Broggy did just fine against Warcury.
I see no evidence they want revenge on her at all lmfao. They literally tried to ally with her via marriage.
