First of all Whitebeard could have stopped all this if he called back Ace like Shanks asked him to. but we are talking about WHITEBEARD here, and shanks also said in the end while drawing out his sword that "noone could have stopped this vampaging point of this era" so Whitebeard knew what was going to happne in the war but he still went and if it was about going to imperaldown to rescue ace then Whitebeard himself was enough to do that.
