A few days later
Zeus and the group arrived at Abyss Island. The group was dumbfounded and Reiju said "You own Abyss Island?!" Zeus sat on the front of the cloud and crossed his arms as he said "I made this Island what it is today. Everything to see was planned by me. The buildings, the courtyard, the Palace, the royal family."
Zeus chuckled and said "Everything here is mine." an obsessed light shone in his eyes as he looked at the massive City below him. He took out a snail and said "Meeting, now." before putting the snail back into the cloud.
Everyone in the group was awake now and were startled by the revelation. Abyss Island was one of the newest and fastest growing Islands in the New World! It made sense now, they looked at Zeus and were terrified, this guy was simply a monster!
Zeus flew towards the conference room and brought everyone inside. All the executives were already here and Zeus grinned as he sat in his seat. Bonney and Persephone transformed and sat in their seats.
Zeus ripped his suit off before changing into shorts and a black t-shirt before lighting a cigarette and saying "Reports." Crocodile said "We're around 70% of the market now." Zeus frowned and tapped on the table as he said "Not fast enough." Crocodile smiled wryly and said "We met a bump."
Zeus raised a brow and said "A bump?" Crocodile exhaled smoke from his cigar and said seriously "The emperors of the underworld." Zeus chuckled and a vicious light flashed in his eyes as he said "What emperors? I am the King around here. Which one?"
Crocodile chuckled excitedly and said "Drug Peclo, Giberson, Umit, Stussy, and Du Feld." Zeus looked down, only his ruthless grin visible as he said in an ice-cold voice "There's only room for one King in the underworld." everyone else in the room shivered and grinned excitedly.
Zeus looked up and said with his red eyes glowing "Kill the men, bring Stussy to me. She's CP0. If she isn't obedient she can enjoy the rest of her life as a toy!" Lucci and Persephone disappeared and Zeus grinned as he said "Anything else?"
Crocodile said "Isaac wanted to live here." Zeus nodded and said "Bring him up here later." Crocodile nodded and Shiruton said "More agents have been showing up, lately."
Zeus rubbed his chin and said "What have they been doing?" Shiruton said "Talking to Riku about the Reverie, but some of them are snooping around." Zeus nodded and thought for a moment before saying "Brulee, wipe the Mirrorworld clean and come here."
Brulee looked at Katakuri, who nodded and she walked over after flashing brightly for a minute. Zeus said "Bonney, take 27 years back." Bonney nodded and touched Brulee's arm, Brulee was startled as she started shrinking, her skin turned white and her nose returned to it's small pinkish, pointed state.
Brulee made a mirror and looked at herself in shock, she had returned to her 16 year old self! Zeus said "Join Shiruton and explain how your power works, hopefully you can awaken it as well and be able to make the Mirrorworld cleaner. Shiruton, Brulee will join Void along with Pudding."
Zeus waved and Pudding walked forward, no longer wearing her bangs over her third eye. Zeus pointed at Pudding and said "She can re-arrange memories, put in, take out, wipe, whatever she wants.." Shiruton was startled, perfect!
Zeus looked at Pudding and Brulee and whistled, a cloud flew in and Zeus took two books out, one of them was blank and the other was clearly labeled 'Pudding'. He gave them to Brulle and Pudding as he said "Read these, especially you Pudding. Your Third eye isn't just for show."
Pudding was startled and grabbed the book before walking behind Shiruton with Brulee, who looked a million times better now. Zeus added "I will get you a restaurant. Oh right, there's a special bit of information in the book I just gave you." he grinned and continued "You might want to take a look."
Pudding opened the book and flipped the pages before seeing a part in red, all three of her pupils shrank and started to glow with a feverish light. The words wrote 'If trained to the peak, the eye will evolve and be able to be hidden'.
Zeus grinned and said "Pedro and Pekoms will be your Executives Croc. Treat them well." Crocodile nodded and Zeus gave them two books as well. Zeus finally said "This is Katakuri, he'll be a new executive. Katakuri, you'll work with Croc."
Katakuri nodded and Zeus gave him a book. Katakuri took it and Zeus said "These two are Reiju and Caesar Clown. I'll bring them to the lab myself. The rest of you can walk around the city if you're bored after you receive all the introductions of your divisions."
Zeus looked at Tesoro and smiled wryly "Nothing for you this time, lover boy." Tesoro waved and said "I got enough." Zeus chuckled and said "You'll get one soon, I promise." Tesoro chuckled and shrugged, he was serious, he didn't need anything. Most of his time was spent with Stella anyway, she was almost stronger than himself!
Zeus stood up and said "Croc, show Katakuri, Pedro, and Pekoms around. After that bring Isaac here and let me know when he's up here. I'll be at the lab, just call me." Crocodile nodded and said "What about the raid?" Zeus was silent for a moment and said "Wait for the rest to come back. Big Mom is going to leave for Wano in a few days. After that, were raiding the entirety of Tottoland."
Bonney hopped on Zeus' shoulder as he turned around and walked out of the room with Reiju and Caesar, leaving everyone else in the room stunned. Katakuri let out a breath of air and said "He sure does hold a grudge.."
Crocodile was curious and said "What happened?" Katakuri explained what happened at the Tea Party Wedding, it was a good opportunity to make small talk and break the ice with the rest. When Katakuri finished, Crocodile and Tesoro burst out laughing, even Shiruton giggled.
Crocodile wiped his eyes and said "No offense but that old hag is an idiot! I knew she was going to do something, but that?! Hahahahaha" Crocodile started laughing again, Katakuri was confused and Crocodile patted his shoulder as he said "Let me tell you a story about Zeus."
Tesoro rolled his eyes, this fucking guy was so long winded when Zeus wasn't around. Shiruton also shook her head, Crocodile tells this story to every new person that gets recruited into Tartarus.
Crocodile cleared his throat and said "When Tartarus was just starting out, it was only a small scale organization. Anyway, eventually after getting bigger Zeus was invited to a meeting for a bunch of small time organizations to meet up. Now this had only been a few months in and these guys had been running the small time scene for years before."
Crocodile held back his chuckles and continued "When Zeus got there, only I was with him. The bosses of the other organizations put pressure on him and tried to humiliate him in front of the rest. Would you like to know what Zeus did?"
Katakuri and the rest of the new recruits nodded, already invested in the story. Crocodile grinned and said "He killed them all and swallowed all their businesses, goods, contacts, manpower. After that we went around and destroyed all their bases and robbed them all blind" Crocodile had a distant look in his eyes as if recalling a fond memory.
The new guys were startled and Crocodile added "Even when the government came to negotiate with us, Zeus threatened them to be respectful or sleep at the bottom of the sea that night." Crocodile sighed and shook his head "He doesn't like to be disrespected, and whoever does, whether they know or not, will pay a heavy price."
Crocodile just remembered and laughed "Tesoro's assistant gave him lip and Zeus still doesn't like her! Hahahahahaha" Tesoro had a wry smile on his face, Lucky had been apologizing for two years and Zeus still didn't care at all.
Katakuri and the rest were in awe, too tyrannical! Crocodile waved and said "Let's go. I'll show you around then you can see the city, even the government doesn't know that our base is here!" Katakuri nodded and followed Crocodile, Shiruton brought Brulee and Pudding along with her around the Void buildings and City.
Tesoro was alone and returned to the Entertainment district.
Zeus was in the lab with Ratchet, Caesar, and Reiju. Monet occasionally came by but she wasn't here today. Zeus assumed Croc had just finished with her and left her in his room.
Zeus said to Caesar "You have everything you need to work here. By the way, I don't want you to make world ending weapons. Who the fuck am I going to sell them to? Myself? Anyway, this is Ratchet. He has all your research notes on Smiles from Dress Rosa, the Tottatans work here as well, taking care of the Smile trees."
Caesar looked around and was impressed, this lab had everything, even human subjects! Zeus nodded and said "The human subject are the CP agents that got caught snooping around where they shouldn't be. I want to make this clear Caesar, if you need more, let me know. Do not just take from the city. The city and Tartarus are separate entities. I will supply you with CP agents whenever you need."
Caesar nodded and said "I probably won't need them anyway. There's enough here." Zeus nodded and said "Some of the lab is for synthesizing new drugs for selling, the rest is for the Smile stuff. If you need anything else let me know. I want perfect Smiles. Not those defective ones that cause people to permanently laugh if you don't become a Zoan."
Zeus' face turned ugly and he added "Also, make it normal. If I have to look at a human-animal mishmash I just might kill it in disgust." Reiju covered her mouth and giggled and Caesar grinned as he said "No problem."
Ratchet was silent the whole time and Zeus gave Caesar a book, it was haki, six powers, and everything he knew about devil fruits as an outsider reading the story as well as his own guesses and theories. Caesar read the book and looked thoughtful before walking into the lab, Ratchet followed him and rubbed his hands nervously.
Zeus chuckled as he watched Ratchet fan-boy over Caesar. He turned to Reiju and said "How long to you think it'll take him to even speak to Caesar?" Reiju giggled and said "Maybe a month." Zeus chuckled and said "Your job is relatively simple. Just watch Caesar, make sure he doesn't do anything fishy. If he's really working and not fucking around, you're free to do anything you want."
Reiju was startled and said "So much freedom?" Zeus pinched her cheek and grinned "Sanji's like a brother to me, that makes you a sister. I'm going to cage up my own sister?" Reiju smirked and said dubiously "You're OTHER sister, doesn't act like a sister at all.."
Zeus turned green and pinched angrily "Aiyo, already teasing me?!" Reiju broke free and ran away while laughing. Zeus sighed and left the lab, a few more things to take care of and he would be able to relax until the assassins came back.
Zeus and Bonney walked side by side on the streets. Zeus sat down on the edge of the fountain in the square and saw the other couples sitting together talking and laughing. Bonney leaned on his shoulder and said "You're really amazing, you know that?"
Zeus leaned his head on the top oh her head and smiled softly "Yeah?" Bonney nodded seriously and said "You made all of this... I'm so proud of you." Zeus felt his nose twitch and his eyes water slightly, a huge amount of pride welled up in his chest as he said "I love you Bonney."
Bonney looked up and smiled, her eyes turned to crescents as she replied "I love you too!" Zeus smiled warmly and caressed her cheek as he leaned in and kissed her soft lips, Bonney wrapped her arms around his neck and enjoyed the kiss while returning one of her own.
They separated and looked into each other's eyes. Zeus tucked her hair behind her ear and said "Its been a while since we've been alone.. Do you have anything to tell me?" Bonney was startled and said "What do you mean?" Zeus pulled her into his lap and caressed her stomach as he said "Did you think I wouldn't know?"
Bonney was startled and said nervously "You knew?!" Zeus smiled and nodded softly, Bonney said quickly "I didn't want to tell you because I thought you were going to make me stay, and I wanted to be with you! I don't want to stay here and miss you all the time, plus Persephone has been helping me a lot and I really don't want to stay here alone without both of you because I know that Persephone will go with you whether I'm there or not and.. and.."
Zeus kissed her gently and smiled "Calm down. I'm not going anywhere for now. We'll talk about it when the time comes. I don't want you getting hurt and I especially don't want anything to hurt the baby. I know you're really strong but I don't want to take any chances."
Bonney teared up and Zeus wiped her tears as he sighed "We'll see how you are in a month, okay?" Bonney nodded and leaned on Zeus' chest sadly, Zeus stroked her hair and sighed again "I will bring you with me, but don't expect to be fighting." Bonney was extremely excited and kissed Zeus deeply.
Zeus chuckled and wrapped his arms around her waist.
Bonney separated from him and leaned on his chest humming to herself while stroking her stomach. She had been pregnant for a month now, she didn't even have a bump yet. Zeus estimated by the time the events in Wano began, her stomach would only have a barely noticeable bump. She would just look a little bloated, but only if you looked really closely. If you took a casual look, you wouldn't notice anything different.
Zeus' snail started ringing and Croc said "Isaac." before hanging up. Zeus picked Bonney up in a princess carry and flew up to the top of the mountain and into the conference room. Isaac was sitting inside and Zeus smiled as he put Bonney down, carefully.
Zeus sat in the chair and took out another blue print as he said "Ready to complete the island?" Isaac immediately got excited and nodded as he said "Let me see!" Zeus chuckled and unrolled the plans.
Isaac looked at them and said "Not a problem! This is the wealthier area?" Zeus nodded and said "5 star shops, restaurants, entertainment centers and in the blank spots of the entire map I want parks. Trees, benches, maybe one of them for children. You know what I mean?" Isaac nodded and said "Trees.." Zeus waved his hand and said "I can give you a tree fruit. You can grow trees with it, I don't know it's other uses but it's useful for you."
Isaac said "Good." Zeus pulled out another map and said "This is what I want in the children park. Exactly this, understand?" Isaac looked at the map and was startled "Isn't this a little too grand?" Zeus shook his head and said "There will only be one, it has to be big! We will all help with the construction and everything, all you have to do is say when to start."
Isaac nodded and said "Immediately." Zeus nodded and said "You're not tired?" Isaac burst out laughing and said "I won't stop until this entire project is finished. This is the final part, after that I'm planning on retiring!" Zeus was startled and smiled "You have to retire on my Island?"
Isaac grinned and nodded "If you'll have me." Zeus grinned back and said "As long as you train some proteges, old man." Isaac burst out laughing and patted Zeus shoulder as he said "No problem Zeus! Gehahahaha!"
Zeus smiled and Isaac took the maps and left to go get ready, Zeus announced that the final construction would be happening and everyone will participate. After all, there would be no more after this and the island would be complete for a long time, thing would just need repairs.
Bonney looked at Zeus with tears pooling in her eyes as she said "The kiddie park for me?" Zeus nodded gently and smiled "Of course, baby." Bonney cried and hugged Zeus saying through tears "Wahh! I love yoooou!"
Zeus smiled softly and rubbed her back. He grinned and whispered in her ear "Don't think I forgot what you did at Whole Cake Island. You're getting punished tonight." as he chuckled evilly, Bonney blushed and said shyly "If you waant~" Zeus was stimulated and picked her up saying "I think we should get a head start!" Bonney giggled and melted into his embrace.
