This makes perfect sense why Imu said fuck it and went for Elbaf anyways if you look at the timeline:
End of Wano Nika awakens.
Egghead was like a day or two in real time and reinforced Imus Nika/JB PTSD.
VP speech about the war still ongoing and not done yet.
All this explains perfectly why Imu is sending HKs again to Elbaf to take it over despite the risks for them dying to Loki.
