All Aces Battle Royale

The "All Aces Battle Royale," or simply the "All Aces," was a race hosted every ten cycles for ace pilots on the ocean planet Castilon. During the Cold War between the First Order and the Resistance in 34 ABY, the event was hosted on the Colossus refueling station, and many pilots—including Pamarthens, individuals from the planet Hosnian Prime, and the First Order operative Marnia Un'la'na—were among the aces who traveled to Castilon to participate.

Under the pseudonym "Bolt-Shatterer-K," Resistance spy Kazuda Xiono flew in the race using a borrowed backup racer and attempted to remain close to Un'la'na's ship to intercept a transmission she was sending to the First Order. He and several other pilots—including Ace Squadron members Torra Doza, Hype Fazon, Freya Fenris, and Bo Keevil—began the race together, flying out after announcer Jak Sivrak's announcement. After successfully capturing her data transfer using an encryption recorder, Xiono was knocked out of the race and crash-landed. Un'la'na won the race's top prize and set a new time record for the course, and Xiono later took the transmission he had captured during the event and delivered it to the Resistance.
