hmm i don't think marine know about nika and the transfer of that fruit just saying elders wouldn't say that to them
that's a maybe. But there is no reason for them to not tell the marines or at least the fleet admiral. Basically, the marines works for them. And it is undeniable that the forces of the marines exceed those of the government (if we do not count the force of the gorosei which we do not yet know). it would be logical that unlike Nika, this time they decided not to make the same mistakes and to get help from the marines led by Akainu.
