It was all insignificant to Birdie. The defense put up, the lives saved, he couldn't care any less to be honest. What he had succeeded in doing was showcasing his talents and ruining the world that the Nobles lived in. The thought of them being frozen in place and their legs being nothing but limp useless tools made it hard for Birdie to hold back a fit of laughter as he fled the scene.
Eager to flee the scene safely before something undesirable happened, he put the boost-ies on. Leaping off the ground at an enhanced pace, he leaped off the air itself multiple times above the crowd of fleeing civilians as a blur. This was thanks to his Kamisori ability. After which, he'd glide through the air at his natural maximum speed having instantly accelerated to a speed beyond that through usage of the Kamisori technique. All of his belongings were still on his person, but his "escorts" were left behind in the crowd of fleeing civilians.

Almost having slipped Birdie's mind however, the civilians would begin to faint one by one. There were even a small amount of Nobles naive enough to come down from their high horses and purvey what it was Birdie was offering at his food stall. While normally the concoction would kill those without a strong enough body, since it was diluted so heavily for a quantity over quality type thing it only rendered those who drank it unconscious. This was the power of a chemical cocktail known as Beelzebub crafted by Birdie himself. The city of Mariejois would undoubtedly be in a total state of unrest and it was for that reason that Birdie knew he needed to hall ass it get the fuck out before the opposition mobilized and began to seek out those who caused this catastrophe. For that however, Birdie had a few red herrings.

First was the Queen Anne's Revenge. That single peon Birdie had dispatched with the Fire Bombs earlier had arrived ahead of the hysteric masses, albeit he was incredibly exhausted from sprinting a long ways. The anchor lifted on the Queen Anne's Revenge, once this man boarded, the vessel would begin to drift off towards the New World, but at a slow pace. They still had some work to do, so they couldn't just skrt off with the swiftness. With a devilish grin on his face, one of the men aboard the ship would man the Gatling Gun that was mounted on the ship and begin firing on the crowd of fleeing people who were running towards the boats at the port or just running towards the port in general. The Firebomb man would climb the mast of the vessel and toss the Marine flag that wavered in the hostile air overboard. What he'd replace it with was a generic looking pirate flag with a typical skull and cross-bones Jolly Roger. From this positioning up high he'd be able to lob objects much further. When the Gatling Gun stalled or paused to be cooled off, he'd pull the pin on the Firebomb toss it towards the crowd of people. With the other he'd look for the most lavish looking ship in the port and he'd pull the pin and lob the bomb successfully on the deck of the ship. Even if there were attendants on board, the moment the bomb made contact with the ship it'd explode with impeccable timing. This would engulf both bombed areas in flames, burning people and a burning ship, a dynamic duo. From there the Queen Anne's Revenge would begin to depart at something much closer to max speed, but still not quite at it's fastest. The Navigator on board, Zed, was under the impression Birdie or Asher would be joining them on board so it was important not to stray too far away from port, but this was a lie. The only reason it was told was to draw attention to the vessel since it was the one they had publicly arrived on and where a new wave of chaos was unfolding. The flames would give birth to smoke surely warranting some kind of reaction.

As for Luther and the fleeing five, once they reached the bottom of the tower should it be now or later they'd head towards the Queen Anne's Revenge. At the end of the day even someone as potentially valuable as Luther was but another corpse to be thrown at Birdie's feet to pave the path to his dreams and ambitions. There'd be no way he'd be able to make it to the Queen Anne's Revenge, let alone board the ship with it having strayed from the docks less he jumped in the water and swam. The chances of him making it even that far were extremely thin however. Birdie and Asher were multitudes of meters from the Reverie building and on their way's to safety while Luther and his entourage would just now be getting outside of it. This meant they would be well within the scope of Baku and the Silver Foxes Haki. To add insult to injury the fact they were killing any Marines they encountered while they were descending the tower, each life force that fizzled out would more than likely be noted by one of these two marines. In Luther's mind he thought he was closer to the inner circle of Birdie's associates as he was told the fate of the fake Zed. This gave him the impression he was in on the real scheme making him feel like he was someone who could trust Birdie and vice versa. His hopes high, he'd eagerly push through all obstacles thrown at him in a metaphorical sense and unknowingly work as yet another scapegoat or red herring.

"This is Birdie. We're coming to the port now, be ready for us." This was all that Birdie would say through his Baby Den Den Mushi to Verde's own Den Den Mushi before hanging up. He didn't want to say much given their transmission could be tapped, but he hoped it was tapped given he said he was on his way to the port and had given his name so credit could be given where it was due. If it wasn't tapped, Verde would still know that the Owl's Haven needed to be ready for Birdie and Asher's arrival, so they could flee.

Birdie would arrive at the edge of the continental shelf with no more surprises or tricks up his sleeve to reveal or plague the Holy Land with. A grin on his face, he'd sustain his usage of Geppo while jumping in an upside down manner. Doing this he'd safely be able to traverse down the  1 kilometer tall shelf to make it to the Owl's Haven. On another side of the coin Luther who'd be fleeing towards the Queen Anne's Revenge would get tied up in some mess with a few Marines. Asked why he wasn't helping with the rescue effort and unable to answer he and his entourage were taken in for questioning. At the port Zed and his gang would have actually made it away safely. This wasn't part of Birdie's plans, but less lives were lost, so he couldn't really complain.

The fires would rage on however, the Gatling Gun would have sprayed however many people down and they'd make a clean get away.

Once Birdie reached the Owl's Haven, safely slowing down once he was getting close to the surface of the water, he'd enter through the hatch of the submarine and prepare to depart with the rest of the crew. Seeing Asher he'd smirk.
He was genuinely surprised he wasn't done in when the explosion with the fake Zed went off. He was also a bit content to see he didn't die as well though, even though he wouldn't have been too disheartened to know he was part of "collateral damages". "Didn't think you'd survive the blast. Guess I see your secret now?" He'd leave it at that, not really a question that needed an answer, just a fun poke at his rival and accomplice. Strapped in, they'd leave once everyone was ready.
