They sent 2 Seraphims + Coby with bustercall fleets after Hancock
They sent bustercall fleets with 3 serpahims after Buggy , they unleashed seraphims only WHEN CROCODILE APPEARED to save Buggy
Greenvull went after Weevil when he soloed bustercall fleets
Even Fuji and VAs were sent after Doffy, Law and Luffy
So why didn't WG consider Posthawk dangerous enough as other Warlords?
Mr. 3.5B pirate, the so called Yonko level dude can't even be taken seriously by WG and others
No wonder why they view him below Buggy in power
A fraud

There's the argument that Mihawk was TOOO STRONG so they didn't send the top tiers to fight him because they would lose.
Of course, this argument is stupid because in this case it would be stupid to send fodder to their deaths(his nickname was marine killer) and it would make way more sense to kill/capture the strongest one first with all your strength (admirals, seraphins and marines), use it as a morale boost that the WG don't need the warlords and go after the others after that. A decapitation strike before the news hit would also make sense.
So this argument can only convince people that are too stupid to think properly.
There's actually a better reason that does not seem to contradict canon and wouldn't muddle the waters much:
The WG wasn't sure of some of the warlords locations, specially Mihawk. After all, he has no crew and moves as he wants. Every time there's a fight with important people you can be sure that he will be in another location or will find a excuse to go away. The same can be said about Crocodile and weevil to be honest. Even Boa and Buggy could be in another location so they had to make sure that they pin they down.
So they send a bunch of ships to their islands to confirm if the warlords are in their usual locations, ships lead by vice-admirals. Their purpose is to fight and keep them busy until the big guns could be employed. We saw that with Boa (she was fighting fodders and, after they confirmed that she was there, her clone and mihawk was employed). If she wasn't there, the fodders could destroy the island and give her a reason to send her neck to be cut.
The admirals and seraphins were employed when they confirmed their locations. When Croc appeared Mihawk still hasn't been spotted (running away is his specialty after all) so they send the last batch fully since Buggy was considered a genius and a menace and with Croc they could win. The fact that they escaped must have given reason for that fear.
Then Mihawk was spotted and managed to escape right away. He didn't fight strong enemies because they were busy and the actual battles was harder than they thought. As a example, Boa almost fodderized everyone before Rayleigh and BB appeared.
So this shouldn't be used against Mihawk. I don't personally like the character but it makes sense with the way things were displayed in the manga.
