Chapter 4: Third Birthday
After several more weeks of training, he mastered the spinning fire spear. It was now time to practice a few more other moves.
'Fireballs and fire spears. How much more practical does that get? Besides, I can always just use fire fists as Ace did', he thought as he released a sphere of fire above his hand.
What else was cooler than swords? Almost every protagonist uses a sword. Naturally, Lee wanted to make swords made of fire even if he didn't need to. Besides, there was a practical use for it. A sword of fire would have the flames and heat concentrated on the edge of the flame which was useful if he wanted a clean cut. Spears penetrated and fireballs explode. The flat part of the blade would also serve as a shield. Lastly, he might also stumble upon a sword duel or some other sword only challenge, although highly unlikely.
The mass of fire compressed itself. Months of training bore fruit. He flattened it into a plane. Faint wisps of fire occasionally appeared on the surface. The plane of fire stretched and shaped itself into the shape of a blade. The blade was four inches wide, four feet long, and the center was half an inch thick which narrowed towards the edge. The base narrowed ever so slightly towards the end of the blade. Around six inches from the tip, the blade abruptly narrows into a sharp point. An extra 1.5 feet of fire sprouted from the base of the blade. It formed a small rectangular handle eight inches wide and five inches long. The flames beneath it condensed into a cylinder a foot long with an inch long rectangular bottom. The sword was 7.5 feet long and was massive. Luckily it was made of fire. If it was made of steel, it would have taken a bear of a man to use it.
'So fucking cool,'
A few months later on Lee's third birthday...
Lee sat in a comfortable baby highchair and looked over a rectangular table 7 feet wide and 15 feet long. His mom sat on his left feeding him baby food and his dad on his right chatting with some old guys.
'I wonder. What devil fruit will I get next? God, I hope I get something useful. I don't want to be a caterpillar man or get the Hito Hito no Mi no offense to Chopper' Lee thought as his mom stuffed his face full of food.
"Oh look, Claus! Look at how serious his face is! He's so damm cute!", exclaimed Lee's mom. Her voice was deep, melodious and clear. It was powerful as if a lioness was talking.
Indeed, Lee was clueless at his current expression. He was a chubby little baby with porcelain white skin and a thin layer of golden blonde hair just peeking out from the top of his head. His eyebrows were furrowed and his eyes gazed seriously at an unknown location. His tiny pink lips were pressed together into a slight pout. He looked like the boss baby but with a thinner head and blue eyes.
"Of course he is Cassie. He's my son after all", Claus said absentmindedly.
"Oh. So he's handsome because he's YOUR SON", said Cassie, Lee's mom, with a sharp edge to her tone as she glared at her husband.
'Dam. She's really going to fight me for this', thought Claus. "Babyy-"
He didn't finish his sentence as Cassie punched at his face. Claus leaned his head back and managed to dodge. He stumbled out of his chair and almost tripped over the fallen chair's legs. Lee awoke from his contemplative thinking and stared at his mom. Cassie had stood up. Only this time something about her was different.
She seemed to be an entire head taller. She had grown from five feet seven inches to about six feet tall. She was now only one or two inches shorter than Claus.
Her pupils had a gold slit in the center in contrast with a fiery red and gold background. Red scales jutted out from the sides of her face, legs, and forearms. Her hands and feet had sharp three-inch claws at the end of them. A red four feet long tail extended from her backside. The scales seemed to act as some sort of light armor. Her hair seems to glow with red light making it seem as though her hair was alternating between black and red.
She grinned, showing her pearly white teeth and three-inch-long canines, and ignited her claws. Red flames covered her scale armored hand and claws. She leaped at Claus with both flaming claws aiming at his chest.
'Fuck so unreasonable', Claus thought as he put his arms in front of him. It turns out he was wearing a pair of silver gilded bracelets with patterns similar to tree branches or vines with leaves sprawling underneath his long sleeve shirt.
The bracelets glowed green for a moment before huge brown tree branches erupted. Wooden tendrils gathered into a ragtag shield in front of Claus.
Cassie's claws dove straight into the center of the shield. It was the thickest part due to Claus' quick reaction. He was obviously experienced with his wife's fighting style, to aim at his face.
Her claws penetrated two layers of five-inch wooden tendrils as hard as iron, sending several shards flying. Her claws continued to sink into the shield of wooden tendrils while the momentum pushed Claus four steps back and the flames burned the wood into charcoal.
Claus' skin glistened with a light sweat as his face showed slight panic.
'Shit, she's gotten even stronger than before. And her flames. Were they always so hot.'
He began channeling more of his mysterious power and the shield grew exponentially, pushing Cassie back four meters away in the process. She was not deterred and took a step back to analyze the situation. Claus took this chance to grow even more wooden tendrils and sent them flying at Cassie. Some of them were to whip her, some to tie her up, and some just to hit her.
Cassie jumped in between tendrils and zig-zagged through them. When she was a meter away she opened her mouth and let out a stream of fire. The fire was as strong and powerful as a flamethrower which immediately blasted some of the wood apart and began converting them into charcoal. She ducked to dodge two more wooden tendrils into a squat. Her leg and butt muscles tightened and spring into action, sending her flying towards the burnt area. She clenched her fists and punched out with her right while putting her left to her side for a consecutive strike. The burnt area immediately shattered apart and Cassie was infinitely close to punching Claus' face.
But she didn't manage to. Claus stepped back once again and managed to dodge. As Cassie was apart to punch with her other arm, Claus grabbed her right shoulder and pulled her closer. He quickly leaned in for a mouth to mouth kiss as he smothered her purple lipstick lips with his own pink lips. As Cassie felt her husband's soft and slightly salty lips against her own she felt soft.
Her body relaxed as she focused more on gaining dominance in the kiss, aggressively pushing against Claus' lips as both fought for dominance. Claus hugged her waist as both of them fell onto the coffee table in the living room and onto the living room floor. The two of them rolled around with arms around each other's neck and waist, bumping into and shaking whatever furniture was there. Claus' arm went down and his right hand grabbed a handful of meat from Cassie's butt. She felt a tingle from his touch that traveled up from her spine. As he massages her butt cheek she moaned slightly, but her kissing power didn't lessen.
'This is why I love her. So aggressive, so barbaric, so strong, so brave, so energetic, and so beautiful.'
'Dam what a great kisser. He sure knows how to use his tongue.'
Two beautiful and strong people, both spouses. At the same time neither knew what each other was thinking. It was the same with Claus. He was slightly better than a dildo.
On the other hand...
'What the fuck are these two doing in front of a 3-year-old child? I mean I guess I'm fine with it, but there are guests here too. Come to think of it I think some were here last time. Could they already know about mom and dads' lascivious personalities?', thought Lee.
"Claudius! Cassandra! Not now. Not in front of the boy. If the two of each other want some fun do it in another room. Why it's your son's birthday", said an old lady shaking her head while simile lightly. She looked like any other kind old lady on the street. Her head was hunched over slightly and her grayish-white hair was tied into a ponytail. She wore long robes resembling that of Asian descent but with Western-like flowery designs.
'Ah, so they aren't Claus and Cassie. It's just their nicknames' thought Lee. 'But thank god. I mean thank the old lady that they stopped. I don't mind, but this is seriously wrong for a three-year-old.'
The two lovebirds stopped and got up while brushing their clothes.
"Sorry about that. The two of us are still too used to doing such in tasteful things. We just finished our five-year honeymoon around the world!" Said Claus.
'Fuck so they were having fun outside the world while I was stuck inside a crib. And their honeymoon was five fucking years! I was born in the middle of it. Good thing they don't seem to resent me much. That honeymoon must have been goddam expensive and why is it so long. There's obviously a huge chance that it's because his family is fucking rich', though Lee.
The couple straightened their clothing as they made their way back to their seat. The two of them sat down and continued to do what they were doing before. Cassandra or Cassie continued to feed Lee while Claudius or Claus continued to mingle with the rest of the table.
'So friends? Family? Which ones are my grandparents?' Thought Lee.
CREATORS' THOUGHTS 
WetDragon
WetDragon Caught a cold. Sad. don’t know if there is going to be a harem. And even if there was it definitely won’t be a happy one and would be closer to an emperor’s harem. Marvel is full of strong beautiful women. The likelihood of them peacefully sharing the same man is low. The bisexual thing works, but only for one or two. A hundred bisexual heroines? Unlikely. The next 10 chapters will be boring training and devil fruits.
