Modern squid tend to use hand-held artillery to defeat their enemies, and have developed jet-propulsion techniques to allow them to travel great distances through the air, even on land. Their cromatocells have also become highly adapted, resulting in what appears to be high fashion inspired among various cephalopods and even crustaceans.

how they defend against other squids?
it's simple!
weaponry. ranging from bathtubs to umbrellas, to tattoo machines, to paint sprays, to soda cans, to gigantic stamps, to missiles.
