Zeus and Dragon sat in Zeus' house, in Straw Hat Village. The rest of the crew went to their homes as well, Zeus maybe them a little more personalized according to their tastes.
Dragon said "I want to rebuild a new government." Zeus lit a cigarette and said "Go for it." Dragon said "I want you to be a part of it." Zeus laughed and said "I didn't know you liked to play jokes, old man." Dragon shook his head and said "It's not a joke."
Zeus shook his head and said "I don't want to be a part of that, Dad. I just want to relax for the rest of my life. I'll send Isaac with you, pick a good island and I'll give you a city blueprint with a governments building. Very beautiful, as long as you don't go crazy with power, it should be fine."
Dragon sighed and said "Fine. You have the blue prints?" Zeus whistled and pulled a thick stack of papers from his cloud before handing them to Dragon and saying "Go find Isaac..." he paused before grinning "I'll give you a 30% discount on goods."
Dragon scoffed with a smile "As Stingy as ever." Zeus grinned and said "Of course! I have 4 mouths to feed, maybe even 5 soon!" Dragon said "5?" Zeus smiled wryly "Persephone's pregnant again..." Dragon burst out laughing before leaving with a few words "I'll be back in 9 months."
Zeus cursed him saying "You damn bastard! I have to do everything myself!" Dragon laughed and disappeared.
Zeus grumbled until he heard a voice behind him "All by yourself huh?" Zeus started to sweat as he turned around and immediately flattered "Oh silly me! There's my beautiful wife! Hahaah" Persephone felt her mouth twitch and Zeus swept her off her feet saying "Aiya! I have to make sure you're really pregnant! Let's go check!" as he marched off to the bed room.
A while later
The door opened and a hand reached out, grabbing Bonney who walked by and dragged her inside, before closing again.
Years passed like this and 8 years later
4 small children tackled Zeus, who was sitting on a chair.
2 boys and 2 girls, strangely enough Bonney got pregnant again right after Persephone and they had the opposite genders again. Persephone had a boy, named Quinn and Bonney had a girl named Lilia.
Now Zeus had 4 kids, in order of their age, Ace at 8, Alicia at 8, Quinn at 7, and Lilia at 7. Zeus held them all and said "Aiya! Is this a murder?!" the kids laughed and Ace said "Not today." Zeus was startled and pinched his cheeks saying "OH? You have a plan to kill this father of yours? I don't think the younger ones will agree!"
He turned to Alicia, Lilia, and Quinn and said "Right, little monsters?" they all shook their heads vigorously and stuck their tongues out at Ace, who sighed and said "How am I going to be the strongest in the world, if you're alive?"
Zeus burst out laughing and said "Wait till I die, kiddo!" Alicia cried "Ahh Daddy! You won't die!" Lilia nodded and said "Yeah you won't!" Quinn shook his head and said "He will, but in a LONG time." Lilia snapped "What do you know?" Quinn shrugged and said "That's what uncle Sanji told me."
Ace said "Uncle Zoro told me that if I killed you, I would be the strongest." Zeus felt amused and said "Why do you want to be strong?" Ace said seriously "So I can protect everyone." Zeus felt his eye twitch as he smacked the bad of his head saying "Protect my grave!? Seems like Zoro needs a little refresher..."
Ace punched his palm and said "THAT'S RIGHT! I'm going to teach that old man a lesson!" Zeus grabbed his collar as he hopped off and Ace continued to walk in the air, Zeus chuckled and said "Who?! Just you? Your Uncle will chop you up in seconds, do you believe it?"
Ace crossed his arms and pouted "Make me stronger so I can kick his ass!" Zeus rubbed his forehead and said "Aiyo! You want to start training? Aren't you still scared of the dark?" Ace's face twitched for a second before he said "N-Not a-anymore!" Alicia giggled and whispered "Daddy, he's lying. I saw him run out of the bathroom when I closed the lights."
Ace shouted "Alicia! That was you!" Alicia spat out her tongue and snuggled into Zeus' arm. Lilia giggled and mimicked her sister. Quinn however was thinking, Zeus narrowed his eyes at Quinn, this kid was special, something about him. He was usually quiet and he liked to read, most of the time he wasn't reading, he was hanging around Sanji.
Also Zeus found out he followed Reiju around everywhere. Zeus theorized that his little boy had a secret crush on Reiju, that's why he was always hanging around Sanji. While he could definitely revert Reiju to a child... I'm not sure Bonney or Reiju would like that.
Because of his crush, he wanted to be a scientist. Zeus kept him away from Caesar as best as he could, the last thing he needed was Quinn running around laughing 'Shulololololo' everywhere he went.
Funnily enough, only Alicia hung around Zeus all the time. The rest had their own favorite people, that weren't him, this made him a bit sad, he was their father. What kind of kids were these?
Ace liked Luffy
Quinn was obsessed with Reiju
And Lilia liked Garp, of all people.
Zeus had, unfortunately, succumbed to his Garp transformation. Every now and then a 'Fist of Love' would make an appearance, but he did stop the laughter. Actually, Dragon and Luffy all had the 'Fist of Love', it was becoming a problem.
Of course, the kids all loved their parents, but Zeus was a bit upset that he wasn't all their idol! How could you like other people when your father was the most handsome person in the world and the Strongest too!
Nevertheless, Zeus put away his thoughts and scooped all the kids up before saying "Who wants to go to the park?" They all got excited and said "Me!" Zeus laughed and brought them to the park.
A while later
Zeus let them loose (Hahaha) and sat on a bench. He lit a cigarette and rested his elbows on the back of the bench as he watched them run around. Nami walked over and sat next to him saying "I don't know how you do it." Zeus exhaled and said "Do what?"
Nami said "4 at once! I can barely handle 2..." she muttered "The other one is always with her mother." Zeus chuckled and said "Still upset? You shouldn't have said yes. He would've listened to you."
Nami sighed and said "She gave me such a pitiful look, I felt bad refusing her." Zeus chuckled and shook his head. Shiruton appeared and said "Someone wants to talk to you." Zeus waved and said "Why are you still working? Don't you have your own kids?"
Shiruton sighed and said "They're with Kid." Zeus took the snail from her and said "Where did Killer go?" Shiruton said "Apparently, he and Carina are dating now.." Zeus said "Finally. It's been 3 years since you and Kid finally did something" Shiruton blushed and Zeus said "Abyss Island Divorce firm."
Kuzan's voice came through "You know how hard it is to talk to you?" Zeus chuckled and said "Kuzan! Why don't you just call my personal number?" Kuzan deadpanned "Never wrote it down." Zeus chuckled and said "And what can I do for you, Mr Fleet Commander?"
Kuzan said "I want to put a Marine building on Abyss Island. Before you refuse! I'll send Smoker there!" Zeus was silent before saying "Smoker, Hina, and Tashigi along with the G-5 marines only!" Kuzan said "Done. They're already there."
Zeus chuckled and said "You already knew?" Kuzan snickered and said "I had a feeling, maybe I can get one of your kids to enlist." Zeus rolled his eyes and said "In your dreams." before hanging up and handing the snail to Shiruton and added "Bring them here."
Shiruton nodded and disappeared.
Nami said "Marines?" Zeus sighed and said "They're better than before at least. Aokiji cleansed them, thoroughly. No more slave drivers. I heard they even have Fish Men and Minks now." Nami huffed "Sure would've been nice if we didn't get chased like dogs..."
Zeus chuckled and said "Where's the fun in that? I heard they chase even more now!" Nami giggled and said "Yeah well, when you're not capturing runaway slaves, you have more time to chase after real pirates." Zeus sucked in a cold breath and said "You're tongue is sharper now! Practicing at night?"
Nami blushed but smirked "What to try it?" Zeus laughed and said "Riiight, I don't need that head ache." Nami chuckled and the marines showed up.
Zeus turned his head and grinned "What's up Smokey? Miss me?" Smoker cracked a smile and said "Maybe a little."
Zeus laughed and flashed to him before giving him a bear hug. Zeus wrapped his arm around his shoulder and said "Any little monkeys running around?" Smoker coughed and Hina smiled slightly while rubbing her stomach.
Zeus laughed and said "Excellent! Hhahahaha" before whistling. 4 little monsters ran over and said "What! I was about to win our game!" Zeus grabbed Ace's face and said "You make up the rules, of course you'll win. This is Daddy's friend, Smoker." but he whispered "Unfortunately his a smelly marine."
The 4 kids nodded understandingly. Smoker was amused and Ace pointed at Smoker saying "You damn smelly marine! I'll beat you up!" he punched at Smoker and went right through him, Ace cursed "Just like the fucking old man!"
Zeus snapped "Who's an old man?!" Ace started to sweat and hid behind Hina and spat out his tongue. The other 3 said in unison "Nice to meet you, smelly marine man." Nami giggled and Smoker felt his mouth twitch as he said "Smoker." the 3 thought about before saying "Smokey."
Ace directly said "Smelly." Smoker was aggrieved and looked at Zeus, who shrugged. Tashigi crouched and said "Awwww you're all so cute!!!" she scooped them all up and hugged them, the 4 kids struggled and said "Daddy help! The smelly old witch wants to eat us!"
Zeus burst out laughing and Tashigi felt a vein pop on her forehead as she said "Smelly old witch?!" the G-5 marines covered their mouths and turned to the side.
Smoker chuckled and Hina smiled as she said "Let them go Tashigi." Tashigi let go and the kids all hid behind Hina saying "Thank you pretty marine lady!" Hina smiled and patted their heads.
Smoker said "Anyway, lets get to business." Zeus took a drag and gave a mysterious smile as he said "You don't know?" Smoker was confused and Zeus said "Come with me." The kids jumped on Zeus 4 limbs and latched themselves to him as he walked saying "See you later Nami."
Nami waved and looked back at her kids playing around.
Zeus brought all the marines past the bustling Immortal Lover's Courtyard and to a big building made of marble with a tarp over the front of it. Zeus snapped his fingers and the tarp dissolved before revealing 'Marines' on a sign in the front of it.
The marines were stunned, this was not a new building! It was also just as beautiful as the rest! Smoker said "You-" Zeus cut him off and smiled "I've been waiting for you. 8 years actually, you might be a marine but you're also one of, if not my best, friends." Zeus patted Smoker's shoulder and walked away saying "Swing by the house if you want, we still have dragon meat left.
Smoker watched him go and turned back to the Marine base, unable to say a word. Hina smiled and said "All of you in! Now!" The rest of the marines and Tashigi went inside and started running the building.
Smoker wiped his eyes a bit and felt his nose was a little sour. Hina rested her head on his shoulder as she said "Happy?" Smoker nodded and said "Maybe I waited too long." Hina smiled and said "At least you came." Smoker smiled and kissed her before walking into the building with Hina.
Zeus went back home and sent the kids to roam around and find their mothers, he had guards following them at all times. They were probably the safest people on the island.
Zeus walked into his study and looked at Tengoku sitting in a rack. He stroked it softly and said "I'm sorry old friend.. Perhaps you will be used in a while, but I've failed you." Tengoku buzzed sadly and Zeus sighed before smiling "I will put you into the right person's hands. I promise." Tengoku buzzed and Zeus smiled before whistling.
A cloud flew in and 4 podiums with glass casings appeared from the floor. The glass casings were empty. Zeus took out the String, Clank, More, and Goo fruits before putting them in their cases and labeling the cases accordingly.
He looked at the 3 empty cases above Tengoku and sighed before leaving, muttering "Soon.." The 4 casings stayed up and Zeus closed the door, who was going to come and steal from him? Nobody, that's who.
8 years later
Ace and Alicia were 16, and Quinn and Lilia were 15.
Currently the 4 were talking amongst each other. Alicia was hesitant and said "Are you guys sure?" Ace nodded and said "We have to! The old man has been training us for a reason!" Quinn said "It would be nice.." Lilia sighed and said "We've been training for 8 years now. There must be a reason for daddy to do that.." she hesitated and said "Maybe he wants this too?"
Alicia frowned, Zeus definitely would never want this. Ace said seriously "No hesitating! Let's go!" the other 3 finally agreed and snuck around the house with Ace. They passed by Zeus, who was sleeping with Bonney and Persephone on the couch along with a 4 year old girl, this was their youngest sister Amelia. Persephone was her mother, but to the kids it didn't matter which one they came from.
Both mothers loved them to the extreme, so did Zeus. It was debated between them that Zeus loved them more than their mothers did, but it was never confirmed. He said so, but Bonney and Persephone would say the same thing, so the kids weren't sure.
Regardless, now was the time to be sneaky not think.
Ace and the rest tiptoed past their parents and arrived at the door to Zeus' study. Quinn held the knob of the door and pushed it open slowly, while the others ran inside. He went inside after they all got in and slowly closed the door behind them.
Quinn turned around and said "Okay, I stole a book from here before! The String fruit can control strings, the Clank fruit is the one I want, the More fruit allows you to multiply things, and the Goo fruit will allow you to transform into goo, it's also a Logia!"
Ace looked at the fruit before looking at Tengoku and making a decision, he walked up and the sword buzzed. Ace reached for the sword and grabbed it, the sword buzzed in his hands aggressively but Ace said "Relax! You're mine! I will take care of you." the sword slowly calmed down and Ace grinned before backing up.
Quinn slowly lifted the box and took the Clank fruit, Lilia took the string fruit, and Alicia took the Goo fruit. Quinn said quickly "Don't eat them here! When you eat it, you will have a reaction! Let's go to our secret hideout!" the rest nodded and they all secretly and stealthily left the study and left the house.
Zeus, Bonney, and Persephone opened their eyes and Zeus smiled wryly "I didn't think they had the guts to steal from me." Bonney rolled her eyes and said "Then why did you leave those fruit out when the floor retracts?" Zeus touched his nose and Persephone giggled before saying "Interesting choices."
Zeus nodded and said "Ace surprised me the most, I thought he was going to take the Goo fruit.. He matured in recent years. It makes me wish they were young again.." he almost teared up and Persephone and Bonney were silent.
Zeus wiped his eyes and said "This little angel is still there though." as he stroked Amelia's hair. Zeus picked her up and walked to the study before whistling and pulling 3 more fruits out of his cloud.
He put the Unicorn fruit, the Disaster fruit, and Kaido's fruit, the Mythical Zoan: Ogre, inside the casings and re-labeled them. He looked at the empty sword rack and smiled a bit, before walking away saying "Maybe next time..." as he swept a glance at the 3 still empty glass casings.
1 year later
Amelia was sitting on Zeus' shoulders and staring at the newspaper he was reading when Ace, Lilia, Alicia, and Quinn came to him and sat on the opposite side of the couch. Ace said seriously "Dad, we need to talk."
Zeus was confused and put down the newspaper saying "What's up kiddo? We still have Dragon meat, I can-" Ace cut him off and said "We want to leave." Zeus froze and looked at his kids.
Ace had white hair with pink tips, it was long enough so he tied it up. He looked like a mix between him and Bonney, very handsome kid. He had a determined look on his face.
Alicia had black hair and looked like Persephone but had Zeus' eyes. She was extremely beautiful and she looked like a delicate little flower, but she was actually extremely strong. She had a sad look in her eyes at the moment, tears pooling by the second.
Lilia had really light pink hair and looked more like Bonney except she had red eyes. She was also very beautiful and looked like a little fairy. Her eyes were red and teary as well.
Quinn had black hair with white tips, he was the spitting Image of Zeus but he had Persephone's delicate nose, somehow, this made him even more handsome than his brother. He had a stern look on his face as if he had made a big decision.
No surprise. All of Zeus' kids were the cream of the crop in terms of looks. Even Amelia looked like a porcelain doll, she had Perephone's features but Zeus' eyebrows, giving her a tough look. Zeus was sure she would grow up to be a beauty for sure. Her hair was also pure white and her eyes were red. She was also extremely smart and sweet, she clung to Zeus like dog plaster and he loved it.
Currently, Amelia had a frown on her face as she looked at her big brothers and big sisters. She didn't want them to go. Then she would be all alone! She didn't like that, she loved Zeus but she also loved them. A massive internal struggle was going on inside Amelia's head at the moment, this would be a turning point in her life! Massive changes!
Zeus frowned and said "No." before picking up the newspaper and going back to reading. Amelia let out a breath of relief, thank god! Everything was staying the same! Happy days to come! Unfortunately, Ace wasn't having it and decided to crush Amelia's little dreams as he said "We HAVE to leave! I've been here for 17 years! You've done all these great things why can't we?!"
Zeus frowned and said "You all feel the same?" Quinn nodded, Lilia nodded before crying, and Alicia hesitated before bursting into tears as she said "Daddy.."
Zeus closed his eyes and said "No." Amelia nodded and said "We can't play if you're not here." the four of them felt bad hearing Amelia's words but Ace clenched his fist and said "We're leaving whether you want it or not! You can't keep us locked up on this Island forever!" before storming off angrily.
Quinn sighed and left, Lilia followed after them and Alicia lunged into Zeus' arms as she cried. Zeus held her and stroked her back with a small smile, but it wasn't a happy one. It was an extremely sad one.
His babies wanted to leave, it felt like just yesterday they were running around his feet, clinging to him. He taught them everything he knew, 6 powers, Rokugan, Haki, Semei Kikan, everything. He knew this day would come but he couldn't let go, he didn't want to not seem them anymore. Who knows what happens out there. It could be extremely dangerous, if even one of them died, he would blame himself for the rest of his life.
He said softly "You know I love you all right, baby?" Alicia nodded and held on to him tightly as she said "I love you too Daddy.. The rest do too but we still want to leave so we can make you proud outside and do what you did.."
Zeus trembled and teared up as he said "You do make me proud, you don't have to leave for me to be proud of you.." Alicia got off and wiped her eyes as she said "But we want to daddy. We all want to be like you. Not Uncle Luffy, Great Grandpa Garp, Uncle Zoro, or grandpa Dragon. You. Staying here feels like we're not doing anything to make you be proud of us."
She sobbed with a smile "We all want to have big adventures and travel around like you did. If we stay we'll all feel like we disappointed you instead. The rest all feel the same way. Even if they have different ways of showing it." tears fell from her eyes and she ran away crying.
Zeus looked down at the newspaper with a sour nose. Amelia patted his head and said "Don't worry Daddy! I'll stay here forever!" Zeus smiled slightly and tickled her feet saying "That's my girl!" Amelia started laughing and said "Daddy stop! I'll die!" Zeus laughed and stood up before leaving the house.
Bonney and Persephone appeared in the room and frowned as they looked in the direction Zeus left in. They could tell he was extremely sad at the moment, they were too. Those kid came out of them after all, of course they didn't want them to leave but sometimes you have to let go. They understood this but they knew Zeus was having a hard time letting go.
Zeus walked around Abyss Island with Amelia and bought her ice cream before sitting at a bench in the park. Amelia finished her ice cream and said "Daddy, can you push me on the swing?" Zeus smiled and nodded.
He walked over, put Amelia in the swing and pushed her. He was in a daze as he pushed her, thinking about what Alicia said. He didn't want to let go, he was proud of them already. He loved them with everything he had, they were the light of his life.
He never really had a childhood and he wanted to make theirs the best possible. He forgot that, this place wasn't the same. He decided to think about it later and focused on Amelia's laughter, at least he had one angel with him all the time.
A while later
Zeus was sitting back on the bench, smoking as he watch Amelia run around with the other kids there. Whenever she was about to fall he twitched his finger and a light wind picked her up and straightened her out. Amelia would look around with the cutest confused face, Zeus smiled softly and Amelia forgot about it, running off again.
Garp sat down next to Zeus and said "What are you smoking here for, brat." Zeus exhaled and said "What's it to you, old man? Why are you here anyway?" Garp pointed at the boy running with Amelia and said "I think you forgot, your brother has a ton of kids too."
Zeus chuckled and Garp said seriously "I heard." Zeus went silent and took a drag from his cigarette. Garp sighed and said "It was different for you and Luffy. Nobody really stopped you from leaving. Hell, even Luffy doesn't care if those little monsters of his leave, what are you holding onto?"
Zeus said sadly "I don't want them to leave! Even if they were stronger than me, I still wouldn't let them. I just want them with me, safe. What did I build and entire Island for? What did I plan for? Why did I make a kids park, the lovers courtyard, all the restaurants, and Straw Hat village for? Every single square inch of this Island is for them. Do they not like it? Are they bored? I'll just wipe Dress Rosa's old Island and make a giant play ground!"
His tone was almost frantic as he continued "They want to visit Raftel? I'll drag Raftel here, even if I have to strip my devil fruit and swim with a rope in my mouth! They want the world? I will be even bigger than the World Government! I'll even shrink it down and turn it into a snow globe, if I have to!"
Garp closed his eyes, and Zeus said, almost pleading, "Anything for them to stay with me! I even wiped out the World Government so that they would be safe! All I want if for them to stay here and enjoy their lives! I would be proud of them even if they were picking up garbage off the streets!"
Garp grabbed him and said "They can't stay forever! They need to leave eventually! It's the way the world works, Zeus! You can't keep them here! You're imprisoning them!" Zeus snarled "It's better than dying outside! I'll destroy the entire world if any one of them dies! Even if I have to use all the Ancient weapons!"
Garp slapped him and screamed "Shut up! It doesn't work like that! You think I didn't feel like you do, when you or Luffy left?! Even when your father left, I felt the same! You have to let go!"
It was quickly spiraling out of hand and people were looking at them.
Zeus grinded his teeth and got up before grabbing Amelia and flashing away. Garp sighed and said "Let's go, little Zeus." Luffy's son, Zeus, ran over and said "What's wrong with Uncle Zeus Great Gandpa?" Garp sighed and said "You're Uncle is upset. He'll get over it." Little Zeus nodded cutely and held his arms up, Garp picked him up before flashing away.
Zeus dropped Amelia off at home and said "Stay with mommy, daddy is leaving for a bit okay?" Amelia nodded and ran in the house. Zeus turned around and took a step, blurring before disappearing.
The crew and Bonney and Persephone appeared as soon as he disappeared and Luffy said "What happened?" Persephone sighed and said "The kids want to leave, but he won't let them go. Garp went to talk to him but I guess..."
Luffy nodded before disappearing, he reappeared and said "He's not here." Bonney said "Not on the Island?" Luffy shook his head and Persephone frowned, muttering to herself "Superman, where did you go..."
Luffy took out a vivre card and it was changing directions quickly, he frowned and looked out to the sea.
Zeus was currently flying away from Abyss Island, he needed to destroy something. He didn't know where to go, he went to Dress Rosa but there were people building stuff on it so he left. He arrived in the air of Punk Hazard and cursed, there were people here too!
He looked of in the distance and disappeared.
He arrived over Thunder Fire Island, well.. That's what it WAS called before, but now it was just Red Hell Island. There were no people here, perfect.
Zeus full transformed and destroyed everything. The mountains, the trees, the animals, the grass, until all that was left was a completely flat circle of land. With nothing left to destroy he flew off, he destroyed 3 more islands in a line until he stopped at a particular island, completely uninhabited with only a single hill and a grave.
Zeus flashed to the island and sat down in front of the grave before taking out a gourd and pouring a cup for his mother. He drank straight from the gourd and sat silently for a long time, until a sigh was heard. Zeus looked up and saw his mother before smiling.
Lily sat down in front of him and said "Why are you having so much trouble, baby." Zeus said "Am I not good enough for them? Why do they want to leave me?" Lily sighed and caressed his cheek as she said "Zeus, Honey. Look at me." Zeus looked up and Lily smiled softly before continuing "It's not that. They just want to be their own people, how can they do that if you're always behind them?"
Lily shook her head softly as she continued "You're doing the same thing that man did to you. You're keeping them shackled in your shadow. They need to leave the nest to fly, or they won't be happy. You want them to be happy, no?"
Zeus nodded and Lily smiled as she said "You have to let them go, or they'll hate you, baby. I had the same relationship with my own father, I hated him because he wouldn't let me leave. Eventually I ran away and was captured, if not for your father I wouldn't even have had the luxury of giving birth, even after I was free, I never went to see him."
Zeus teared up and Lily kissed his forehead saying "You know what to do, baby. Have faith in them." before disappearing. Zeus sighed and looked up at the sky before drinking from his gourd and leaning his back on the side of the grave and watching the sunset, hugging his knees.
A long time later
Zeus flashed back into the house on Abyss Island and holed himself up in his study before pulling out a bunch of blank books and started writing in them.
The next morning
The kids were awake and anxious, Zeus left yesterday and they didn't know where he was. Persephone smiled a bit at them before opening the study door.
Zeus was inside, sleeping at the table with a bunch of books on top of a crate, on the floor next to him. His hair was sprawled out on the table and his hat was on top of the stack of books, noticeably, there were no more devil fruits in the glass containers behind him.
The kids saw Zeus and the crate along with the books and hat. They felt their eyes turn red and their noses sour, Persephone also wiped her eyes before telling them to take the crate and books. Alicia grabbed the hat and looked at Zeus before putting it on her head and walking out of the study.
Persephone closed the door softly after they left and came next to Zeus, she moved the hair out of his face and kissed his forehead before leaving quietly.
A while later
Zeus woke up with a start and noticed everything was gone, he ran out of the study and looked around before not seeing anyone. He started to get nervous and ran out of the house before flashing to the port and seeing everyone there.
He landed on the ground and the kids looked at him. Zeus said "You weren't going to say good bye?" The kids teared up and tackled Zeus before bursting into tears. Zeus hugged them all and tagged them with his lightning marks before saying "I love you all. Please be safe." they nodded and left with the other kids.
Zeus directly disappeared, if he stayed any longer he would drag them back and chain them to the house. He flashed to the house and got Amelia, who was still asleep, before sitting on the couch and reading the newspaper.
Persephone and Bonney got back home and smiled before sitting next to Zeus.
8 years passed
Zeus sat in his study with a 13 year old Amelia and was reading the newspaper, there were newspaper clippings and bounties of all 4 kids sprawled across the wall. Amelia said "Daddy, are you scared I'm going to leave too?"
Zeus sighed and rubbed her head as he said "Are you?" Amelia shrugged and grinned "I don't know. Maybe~" Zeus chuckled and said "Nah. I'm chaining you to me with handcuffs! Stay with Daddy forever!" Amelia giggled and hugged Zeus she said "Silly daddy! Then how are you going to make more brothers and sisters?"
Zeus choked and saying "What are they teaching at schools nowadays?" Amelia laughed and said "Adult things~" Zeus shook his head and said "Ask your mother, if you kiss you'll get pregnant!" Amelia pouted "I told the teacher you said that and she said that Daddy was wrong! I wanted to punch her in the face!"
Zeus burst out laughing and said "That's right! Daddy is always right, that's why you should never touch or kiss any boys okay?" Amelia nodded and Zeus said "Or girls." Amelia nodded and Zeus said "Or anyone other than daddy." Amelia said "What about mommy?" Zeus thought about it and said "Only with Daddy's permission." Amelia nodded.
4 Years later
Zeus was sitting at a table with a furious expression on his face. Across from him was Lilia and a guy, who was sweating bullets.
The four of them came back a few months ago and just now Zeus had found out that Lilia had, in fact, not only found a boyfriend but was pregnant. That was yesterday.
Coincidentally, yesterday Abyss Island mysteriously lost a mountain.
Persephone and Bonney were sitting next to Zeus and Amelia was off to the side with her legs crossed shaking her head as she said "Ahh, you actually brought him here. Looks like you'll be a single parent sis!" Ace, Alicia, and Quinn flinched. Ace's flinch was a bit more noticeable and Zeus narrowed his eyes and said "Which girl did you knock up, brat."
Ace made Luffy's lying face as he said "Nobody~" Zeus grabbed his collar and said "Who?" Ace said "Ahh Emily!" Zeus' eyes widened and he snapped "Sanji's kid!?" Ace started to sweat and Zeus went silent before saying "I think you should start running now."
Ace was confused when an extremely loud shout was heard "ZEUS, YOUR BASTARD SON KNOCKED UP MY DAUGHTER!" Ace paled and disappeared, Sanji appeared and growled "Where is he!" Zeus sighed and pointed the way, Sanji nodded and disappeared.
Zeus turned back to Lilia and said "So you left and came back pregnant with some guy's kid?" he was eerily calm and Lilia said "Dad, he's not some guy! I love him!" In reality, it was Zoro's kid, Logan.
But Zeus nodded and said "Good. You'll love his ashes then." he raised his hand and Bonney grabbed his hand saying "Zeus! Enough!" she looked at Logan and said "Logan, Honey. Does your father and mother know?" Logan said "My old man'll kill me if I told him..."
Zeus snarled "I will too! You little bastard!" Persephone pinched his waist and said "Quiet!" Zeus grumbled and Amelia snickered from the side, Zeus looked over and said "Don't think I don't know where you go all day. I don't care if he's Smoker's kid, I'll kill him too!"
Amelia trembled but kept her cool and said "Nah! He's nothing, just a friend!" Zeus chuckled and said "Better be. Remember what I told you, little girl. I really will do it." Amelia saluted and said "Understood sir."
Zeus chuckled and gave Alicia a nod while smiling, and sighed at Quinn, who seemed dead set on making Reiju fall in love with him. Quinn grinned and said "She doesn't have a boyfriend still, there's hope!"
Alicia rolled her eyes and said "She's like 50 years old." Quinn scoffed "So? I love her." Amelia burst out laughing suddenly and said "Then wouldn't you be a double uncle for Ace's kid?" Quinn turned green and ran out of the house shouting "ACE, I'M GOING TO FUCKING KILL YOU!"
Bonney ignored him and said "Let's go to your dad's and talk with him." Logan sighed and nodded, Zeus stood up and walked out of the house.
He knocked on Zoro's door and Robin opened it before saying "Hey Zeus." Zeus smiled and said "I need to speak with you and Zoro." Robin invited him in and Zeus walked inside before sitting at the table where Zoro was.
Zeus looked at Zoro and said "So let's talk about why my daughter has a baby in her from your son." Robin and Zoro froze and Bonney walked in with Logan and Lilia. Persephone stayed at home with the girls.
Zoro glared at Logan and said "You better be ready to take responsibility." Logan was serious and said "I was ready a long time ago." Lilia teared up and said "Aww Logan.."
This was an extremely ballsy move from Logan, Zeus was basically a volcano about to explode. He was about one marriage proposal from exploding, sure enough.
Logan grabbed Lilia's hand and said "I want to marry her." Bonney ran over and turned Zeus into a child as he exploded in rage "AND I WANT TO TURN YOU TO DUST YOU LITTLE!!" Robin chuckled and locked Zeus up in a bunch of arms.
Even as a child Zeus was extremely strong. Zoro rubbed his eyes and 2 more heads popped out from the door frame to another room. They were Zoro's other kids, Olvia and Amber. They were both girls.
Olvia said "You think he's dead?" Amber said "80% I told him he was going to turn to dust but he wouldn't listen." Olvia sighed and said "Oh well. I get his stuff." Amber snorted and said "With just you?" Olvia sneered "You want a beating, bitch?" Amber pulled a sword from her waist and said "Somebody forgot what happened last time~"
Zoro looked over and said "Enough!" The two girls grinned and hugged each other saying "What are you talking about daddy? We're best friends! haha" before walking away, Amber elbowed Olvia and Olvia snapped "That's it bitch! I'm spanking you today!" Amber sneered and egged her on saying "Bring it, slut!" before they started fighting.
Back in the main room
Zoro looked at Zeus and said "Calm down, mask boy. I don't see a problem." Bonney sighed and said "Oh boy, here we go."
Zeus jumped on the table and grabbed Zoro's collar as he said "What do you mean Mosshead?! If that was your daughter, I'm sure there would be human ribbons on the ground right now!" Zoro sneered "But it's not." Zeus grinded his teeth and turned to the kids saying "How far along are you?"
Lilia flinched and said "6 months." Zeus clicked his tongue "Too late to take it out then.." Lilia said quickly "You'll have a granddaughter! Isn't that good?!"
Zeus calmed down and mumbled "Granddaughter?" Lilia struck the iron while it was hot and added "Yeah! AND she'll call you grandpa all the time and you can bring her to the park!" Zeus rubbed his chin and said "I DO like going to the park..."
Zoro frowned and said "Who said you'll take her to the park?" Zeus froze and turned to Zoro, his right arm turned into a dragon arm with 10 fingers as he said "Oh? You want to take my granddaughter to the park? You better hope she looks like my daughter, if she looks like you, all hope is lost! You're lucky all your kids look like Robin!"
Zoro snapped "Did you just call me ugly?!" Zeus sneered and said "I'm more handsome than you and I'm currently a child!" Zoro butted heads with Zeus and they argued.
Bonney and Robin looked at each other before shaking their heads, they turned to Lilia and gave her a thumbs up.
Zeus said "Wifey, turn me back to normal! I have to teach this bastard a lesson!" Zoro said "Honey, bring me my swords, if I don't cut this bastard today, I won't be the greatest swordsman in the world!" Bonney and Robin did as they were told and Zoro and Zeus disappeared.
Loud booms were heard in the distance. Actually they both went to a patch of land that Zeus had Trent make with a mountain so that they could fight whenever they felt like it without breaking anything. It was in the sea just a bit away from Abyss Island. There was an arena and everything.
Sanji flashed to the arena with Quinn and Ace in his hands. When he was chasing Ace, Quinn ran in screaming that Ace was ruining his chances with Reiju. Sanji didn't like that, so he took them both here.
Sanji cursed "These two bastards are fight over something stupid again!?" he shouted "Hurry up! I need to beat these two!" Zoro and Zeus looked over and Zeus sneered "Count your blessings my boys took an interest in your family shit-cook."
Sanji flared up and dropped Ace and Quinn as he said "What did you say, mask boy!?" Zeus sneered harder and said "You heard me shit-cook. You're lucky Ace likes your daughter and Quinn is in love with your sister!"
Sanji burst into flames and attacked Zeus as Zoro fell over laughing.
Luffy flashed over with grilled meat on the bone as he said "What's going on?" Ace said "So, Lilia is pregnant with Logan's kid and Emily is pregnant with my kid, also Quinn is in love with Uncle Sanji's sister, Reiju."
Luffy nodded and said "So a mystery relationship." Ace and Quinn nodded and Luffy chuckled saying "At least nobody is knocking up my daughter." Ace and Quinn coughed and Luffy almost dropped his meat before flashing away.
Soon enough a loud scream was heard "CHOPPER! AHHHHHHGH I'M GOING TO KICK YOUR ASS!"
16 years passed
Zeus just got back from a walk with his granddaughter and grandson and walked into his study. He looked at the three empty casings, his face slowly turned determined and he walked to the desk and pulled out a drawer, there were 3 DFE serum syringes inside.
He stared at them before taking a deep breath and stabbing himself in the heart. He pushed the plunger down and grunted. He dropped the syringe and sat down in his chair, he closed his eyes and frowned as he felt a prickling pain.
Soon enough
3 fruits fell into his lap. Zeus exhaled and looked at the fruits, one Thunder, one Dragon, and one Thunder Dragon. The Thunder Dragon fruit looked like a mix of both the Thunder and Dragon fruits. He picked all three up and opened two of the lower casings before putting in the Thunder fruit and Dragon fruit and labeling them.
He held the Thunder Dragon fruit in his hands and looked up at the middle upper casings. His face grew determined and he opened the middle casing before putting the fruit inside and labeling it 'Mythical Logia-Zoan: Thunder Dragon Fruit'
Zeus rubbed his chest and felt a bit weak but it was slowly clearing up. He removed the sword stand and pressed on the wood in two separate places. Two more casings showed up. Zeus smiled and walked out of the room before locking it.
Another 10 years
Zeus put the Age fruit and the Phoenix fruit in the lower casings and labeled them before putting the Phoenix of Life fruit in the left upper casing and labeling it 'Mythical Paramecia-Zoan: Phoenix of Life'
5 years later
Zeus walked into the room for what would be the final time. He put the Shapeshift fruit and Two Tailed Cat fruit into the middle level casings and labeled them before putting a new fruit into the right upper casing. He labeled it 'God Paramecia: Multi-Multi fruit'.
Zeus stepped back and looked at his legacy before grinning to himself and walking out of the room to join his family. Behind him an array of the 9 fruits that shaped his life, all having significant meaning to him. His life's work and everything he holds dear. Around on the walls are a myriad of bounties and newspaper clippings, of everything child, grandchild, and great grandchild.
The scene zoomed in and right in the middle of the wall, above the highest fruit casing was a picture of 4 boys all grinning with an orange haired lady smiling behind them.
The End.
(Author's Note)
What a ride people! Thanks for your support blah blah blah, you know the drill. You guys keep me going! Anyway! This is the end of Twins of the Sea! It's been a long time coming and I think I can honestly say that it was my best story by far! Also for everyone asking about Shadow King and the others, yes. I will finish them but I need a break from One Piece and Quirkless is just too short for me to continue, I feel like I should wait a bit before re-writing Quirkless. There were good parts but there were also some parts that were a bit... well stupid and not necessary.
I'm gonna take a break for a few days and research for the next book, there's a teaser in the Discord if you're interested though I might just put it here.. Idk! I don't have a name for it yet but I want to step out of my comfort zone and do something BIG. Sort of allow myself to deviate off cannon plots and broaden my writing skills and creative thinking! I hope you guys understand!
PS: If I really get asked a lot to put the teaser here I will, if you really can't get into the discord, I know its a bit wonky sometimes!
Also if you read the last part at the very end while listening to this, it will make it better: Hito no Dokuro ni Tee Dasuna
Anyways! Peace!
-The teaser-
A young man dredged through the hallways "another shitty day.." he thought as he was dragged off to an unseeable corner
The young man was laying on the ground beaten and bruised thinking about himself "why! Why is it always me!
"I can change everything boy, accept me and gain the power you seek!" The young man gritted his teeth and shouted "come!" As he grabbed towards a black substance
"It doesnt have to be like this! You can still go back!" The young man laughed chillingly "go back? But we've only just started! Kehahahahahah"
