*??? POV*

*3 days later*

"Oohh peek a boo! Peek a boo!." A giant man stood over a crib along with an old man and white haired woman while playing a game of peek a boo with a newborn wrapped in blankets. The baby had a bored look on its face as they stared at the man clearly bored.

"Why the hell are you doing that weird thing with your face?. I can clearly see that are you not disappearing when you do that thing with your face." I tried too say but all that game out of my mouth were babbles and coos as I waved my arms around in a attempt too slap this man but it just looked as though I was trying too grab the air.

They were currently in what seemed too be a small nursery where rows of other babies laid in small cribs while other families stood over these cribs while they either fed or tried playing games with these babies.

You wanna know something interesting about babies?. It sucks being a baby because since I'm too weak too do anything my life is basically just sleep eat some crappy mushy food that tastes like expired vegetables and suck some milk out of some woman's teat for milk or something.

Well actually that last part is what the other babies in the nursery have too deal with I'm formula fed because apparently they were worried the teeth I was already born with would've made things difficult for me too get breastfed. So they didn't wanna risk me biting my own mother so instead they just gave me formula but that's fine I don't wanna deal with this breast feeding stuff especially since I'm smart enough too know whats happening. Unlike the other babies in this nursery I can actually think for myself while they just eat or drink whatever is given too them without a second thought like mindless creatures.

That sucks too because I was hoping I could have some conversations with the other babies in the nursery but nope all they do is babble cry eat and sleep. I think I might've overestimated the intelligence of newborns but you start too get desperate too talk too someone when you cant have a conversation with anyone for three days straight.

Anyways some things have changed in the past three days so I might as well talk about some of the new changes in my new life. One of the biggest changes was the fact my name is no longer Rocks D. Xebec. Nope my new name in this new life is Spartacus the second.

I know its a bloody weird name but I sort of expected my name too change after all its not like that Odin dude promised he would make sure my name would stay the same in this new life. But hey a new name is not that big of a deal at least my new name isn't something dumb like Eugene Francis the third or something like that.

Anyways it seems as though the people who live in this new country call themselves Spartans and I don't remember any groups who called themselves Spartans in my past life so I genuinely have no idea where I am currently. And based off of the conversations I've heard these three people are my new family in this new life.

The giant dude with the bad hair is apparently my uncle and his name is Heracles and the old guy is my new grandpa named Suiryu. And the white haired woman is my mom a woman named Diane and these three have not stopped annoying me!.

Seriously I'm in a nursery where there are guards nothing bad is going too happen too me if you guys leave me alone for five seconds!.

For some reason though I have yet too find out who my dad is though....Welp I guess that's just one thing my new life has in common with my old one.

I tried too protest as Mo-no I mean Diane picked me up and began hugging me with a dangerous amount of force before spinning me around in her hands almost like i was a doll. The other two didn't even try and help me escape from this crazy woman and her clutches as she showered me with way too much affection!. I mean I've already been here for three days shes acting like this is the first time shes seen me so there is no need to show me this much love.

"Hello my sweet little angel you've gotten so big already! And lucky for you today the doctors gave us the all clear too bring you home!. I can't wait too show you your home your going too love your room and all the toys we got for you!." Diane said happily as she continued hugging me. I just tried too push her away from me with my weak pudgy arms but that only seemed too make things worse.

"Aw look hes trying too hug you!. Hes such a smart baby!." Grandpa said causing Diane too let out a squeal of happiness as she only increased the amount of hugs she began too give me.

"NO YOU IDIOT I'M TRYING TO DO THE OPPOSITE OF A HUG!. GET THIS LADY OFF ME!." I tried too yell but all that came out of my mouth was more babbling as I was attacked by a flurry of hugs and YUCK kisses.

I don't know why but the idea of someone doting over me like this even if they are my mother. Besides I feel even more weird about it because I had a mom in my past life and even though I don't like talking about her it feels awkward too just act as though my old mom never existed and act as though Diane has always been my mom.

*1 hour later*

"Welcome home little man!. Hope you like it here!." My uncle said as we walked into a large two story cabin. Diane was holding me in her arms and as we walked into the cabin I noticed its weird appearance. The cabin at first glance looked the same as any normal cabin with its large living room wooden floor and small kitchen but in the middle of the cabin was a stone fireplace and hanging over the fireplace were two circular shields that were blue and white in color with weird tribal markings painted on the shield. And over the shields a katana hung on the wall and over the sword was a white banner that had the words

"To honor Spartacus the first a true spartan."

"Huh is that like a memorial for this Spartacus dude?. Shoot I was probably named after him." I thought too myself as Diane and my uncle began taking me upstairs too the second floor but I noticed that grandpa stopped following as he stared at the banner.

"You may have been an asshole at times but it makes me truly sad knowing that you will never get too see the young man your son becomes." Suiryu said quietly a look of sadness on his face as he stared up at the banner before following the others up the stairs.

"And here is your room little man with all the toys you could need!." My uncle said as they brought me into a small room. The room was small and in one corner there was a crib and in the other corner there was a small pile of baby toys like blocks little stuffed animals and other useless stuff.

"Here why don't you rest in your crib for a bit while we prepare you some food?. We'll be back in a bit!." Diane said as she set me down in the crib before she and the others walked out of the room.

Huh so this is my new room huh?. Wait a minute are those crib bars made of steel?! Jesus Christ what type of babies are born here where they need too use steel for there cribs?.

Whatever that's the least of my worries I begun looking around my room and saw that there was a small mirror in the corner of the room which allowed me too see myself clearly in this prison of mine. I was abnormally big for a newborn I could be mistaken for a month old and even though my skin was paler then average I didn't look like a ghost like Diane did. And even though I was only three days old I had bits of dark red hair poking out of my head and pale yellow eyes. Minus my eyes I looked like an average baby nothing like I did in my past life but that didn't matter because something has been bothering me for a while.

Odin promised me I would have blessings from the gods so why haven't they kicked in yet?. I mean even though there weren't a lot of these blessings some of them should've made me much more different then the average person. I don't even know how too access that inventory thing Odin promised me.

As soon as I thought this I instinctively felt as though I had gained another invisible limb and at that moment I somehow knew how too control this inventory. And strangely enough I knew that there was a small slip of paper in this inventory so I reached into the inventory with my pudgy hands and pulled out a small slip of paper.

I grabbed the slip of paper and began too read the contents of the paper which read.

"Read this note too receive your gifts"

"Huh well this note is rather straight too the poin-OH MY GOD!." I thought too myself as the paper began too get enveloped by a golden light that lit up the room. As this happened I felt a pain in my head as a headache filled my head. As this happened information began flooding my mind as a new strength flooded my body.

[Blessings granted too you]

W-Wow all of these new skills are sort of overwhelming....I'm not gonna lie back when I saw that Odin dude I didn't really read the description and effects of the blessings I just asked for them all. But I did not expect this much power!.

By the time I finished memorizing all of these "gifts" I had already felt multiple changes in my body. I looked at the mirror in the corner of the room and saw that my body had gone through a change that would've been unnoticeable for most people but not for me.

My body no longer had that large amount of baby fat I had before now my body fat seemed more compressed thinner then it was before. Most wouldn't notice this slight change but I could feel what happened most of my body fat has now been compressed into dense muscle and unlike before I now felt as though I had control over my body and I now felt stronger then before.

"Great I no longer feel like a baby anymore and now I feel the same when I was five or four in my past life. Sure I'm still weak but not like before." I tried too say but all that came out of my mouth was a mixture of babbles and coos. Dammit even after all these changes i still cant talk like I did when I was first born. Same goes for haki no matter how hard I try I am unable too properly use haki even though I could feel it in my body.

"Welp I might as well try and get out of this cage." I thought too myself as I tried too stand on my feet which was surprisingly difficult. Even though I now felt stronger then before my webs were still wobbly and my limbs were now harder too control as I crawled around my crib in an attempt too stand on my feet. It was only till I grabbed one of the bars of the crib that I was able too start lifting myself too my feet using the bar as leverage that I was able too try and walk.

"Ok this is harder then I thought but then again I'm only three days old so that is too be expected. My body is still weak after all so let me just put one leg in front of the other and use a wee bit of effor-ACK!." As I tried too take a step forward I felt an intense pain flood my tiny body almost as though I was being crushed by chains as I felt the bar I was grabbing crush under my grip.

I severely underestimated the amount of strength that was in my body because as I used the littlest amount of effort too move my body I could feel my own muscles wrap around and crush the very bones in my body. I could hear my very skeleton crack as veins began too cover my torso causing me too fall on my back as I tried too relax my muscles. Luckily I was successful as I was able too relax my body entirely right before my bones broke and even though my body was in pain I let out a sigh of relief because I could feel that none of my bones were broken.

I'm not gonna lie I wanted too cry at that moment as I laid on my back because of the pain. I guess this was because of my undeveloped mind and body but I held my tears back as I began too think. What just happened was sort of scary and had I not stopped myself I might've died. I guess I underestimated the amount of strength I had gained from those blessings and had I increased the amount of force I was using by the slightest my muscles would've crushed my bones and I probably would've died.

"Well this sucks how do I plan too walk without breaking my limbs?. Well I could wait until I'm older too start walking or I could rely on some of my old techniques!." I thought as veins began too cover my torso and legs.

"If my body cant handle too much power being focused in one spot without breaking then I should spread out my strength evenly throughout my body. I must control my strength manipulate my muscles in a way which will let me walk without the risk of breaking. I guess its only been three days since I last used this technique so hopefully I'm not rusty." I thought as I began controlling the muscles in my body. It looked as though the veins covering my body were focusing around my arms and legs as I grabbed the now slightly bent crib too lift myself up as I tried too take another step.

"Welp hopefully this actually works!." I thought as I once again tried too take another step and for a moment I could feel a heavy weight on my body as my body once again almost crumbled as a weight was put on my bones. As that happened I controlled my muscles spreading them evenly throughout my body in a attempt too weaken the strain on my body and after a couple seconds the veins covering my body began too disappear as I gained control over my body.

"Alright that's the way too do it!. You know what they say walking is like riding a bike you never forget so let me just put one foot in front of the other and lets get too moving!." I thought as I began too take my very first step my legs wobbling a little as I struggled too keep my balance for a moment before taking a step towards the crib bars.

"Huh I wonder how much strength I can use too get out of this crib before my body breaks." I thought as I grabbed the bars with both hands as I began too focus my strength into my arms making sure not too break my arms as I poured my power into my fingers and palms.

"I wonder if its possible for me too use one of my old skills." I thought as veins began too cover my arms.

[Spirit style: Iron Spirit Smash!]

*CREAAAAK*

The steel bars bent as I tore them open with my bare hands making a hole just big enough for me too fit through. My arms were shaking a bit after using this technique as I tried too relax the muscles in my arms which were dangerously close too breaking my arms. I guess I should wait a couple years before I begin too train because I'll be damned if I sit on my butt when I have another chance at life.

I promise that in this new life I'll finish where I left off during my conquest for world domination.

"Welp I wonder if I should explore a bit." I thought as I stumbled out of my crib and walked up too the room of my door but I felt a bit disappointed as I got close too the door.

Goddammit this damn door handle is too tall for me too reach!. I take back every short joke I ever made in my past life.

Well this was a waste of time even after going through all that trouble too break out of my crib I cant even leave this room. Now how do I past the time?.

I glanced at the pile of baby toys in the corner of the room for a moment before shaking my head. Even if I'm physically there is no way I would play with a bunch of useless baby toys.

But then again....

*1 minute later*

"Were back Spartacus and we got your foo-OH MY GOD!." Diane screamed in a mixture of shock and horror as she walked into her child's room a small bottle of formula in her hand which she dropped as she stumbled back in shock.

What she saw was something she could never even imagine because not only was her child's specially made crib with metal bars forced open but her three day old child was calmly walking around the room as he made a mini tower of blocks.

"You know these blocks are actually quite entertaining its amazing all sorts of things you can make using these thin-OH CRAP WHERE DID SHE COME FROM?!." I dropped the block clutched in my hand as I turned back too see Diane staring at me from the rooms door a look of shock and confusion on her face as I heard a pair of footsteps running up the stairs.

"WHAT HAPPENED IS THE BABY OK?!." I heard grandpa yell as he and Heracles rushed into the room a battleaxe clutched in Heracles hand and a sword that I recognized as a shikomizue clutched in grandpa's. The two looked at the broken crib a fearful look in there eyes before they looked towards me and stopped in there tracks.

"H-How did he get out?." Grandpa muttered quietly as he dropped his katana too the floor before rushing towards me as he picked me up in his arms.

Meanwhile Heracles just walked up too my crib and began examining the bent bars with wide eyes. Even though most Spartan babies are born stronger then average it should be impossible for children too bend metal and walk perfectly let alone a three day old newborn. If Heracles wasn't there too see this incredible display of strength Heracles would've thought that something like this would've been impossible for a child too do.

Yet the proof was right in front of him in the form of a broken crib and his newborn nephew who was staring at the adults with a innocent look on his adorable face.

"T-This shouldn't be possible there is no other explanation as too how he broke out other then he used his bare hands too tear the bars of his crib open!. I mean after all there is nothing else in the room capable of bending metal like this but how does he already know how too walk?!." Heracles exclaimed in shock as Suiryu began too use observation haki as he examined his grandsons body.

"Hhmm this is strange...." Suiryu thought as he examined his grandson's body and saw that unlike before his body had undergone a new change. His muscles were abnormally dense and compact full of power. Muscles like these can only be obtained by years of training and yet this child has developed these same muscles in only three days.

"Its just like before....This is the second time I've seen potential like this. Heh I guess the saying like father like son is true because even though there not even a week old he already has some similarities with his dad." Suiryu thought as the face of a black haired man popped into his mind.

In the north blue an island known as the island of death exists. The island is rather large being 331,689 km in size with a beautiful and large jungle surrounding the island and is known for its giant and treacherous mountains which are said too be impossible too climb. Even by new world standards the world government considers this island the most dangerous place in the world with an 100% mortality rate for anyone who even attempts too visit this island. Even though this island could potentially be a gold mine of resources with its large amount of land and ores perfect for mining and farming most people wont even survive being close too this island as the gravity there is five times greater then other islands and would crush even the toughest men in seconds. And surrounding the islands are large rocks that could crush a battleship and sea kings tougher then the average sea king as they have evolved too these tough gravity conditions granting them abnormal strength and ferocity.

And even if someone could get past the violent waters rocks as tough as iron and deadly sea kings who are considered the most dangerous sea creatures in the world and could get on the island they will most likely not survive. Any animal born on that island is much tougher then any other creature due too evolving and adapting too the heavy gravity surrounding the island making them larger stronger and more violent then any other creature there are even reports of insects the size of battleships devouring tanks whole and insects possessing poison strong enough too kill a man in the span of ten heart beats. And even insects like these pale in comparison too creatures like lions with indestructible hides bears that can rip steel apart with there claws and the intelligent creatures who have created there own society like bloodthirsty orcs and brutal lizardmen. Even the plants on this island have evolved too the point they can devour and poison a man in the matter of seconds. And the extremely thin the higher you go making it difficult if not impossible for most people too breath.

And the weather on this island and this island only is incredibly abnormal no other island in the world is affected by the weather the same way this island of death is effected by it. During the winter the temperature can reach temperatures below zero with blizzards that can freeze normal men in seconds and during the summer the heat can be so intense normal men may even suffer from fourth degree burns. And for some unknown reason nearby islands are not effected by the weather in this way. Some even say this single island alone was cursed by the gods and anyone who even sails near this island are said too be cursed with bad luck.

This island earned its title of the island of death after a ship of 20'000 marines and one admiral were sent too investigate this island shortly after its discovery 68 years ago. And out of the thousands of men who were sent too this island only one came back alive and that was the marine admiral who after giving there report died too there injuries minutes after.

As a result this hellhole of an island is considered the one place in the world that is impossible for humans too survive.

And yet in the very middle of the island on the peak of the largest mountain a thriving society exists hidden away from the world with a population of over 150'000.

The people who live on this island call this island the land of Sparta and the men and women who live here are a hunting tribe of the land who call themselves Spartans. Despite the terrible conditions of this island the people here consider these conditions normal and there natural way of life and after centuries of adapting and surviving in these conditions they can be considered some of the toughest and strongest people in the world.

They are also responsible for wiping out 18'000 of the marines who invaded Sparta and severely wounding the admiral who lead them. If the government ever found out about these men and women they would be considered one of the most dangerous and efficient fighting forces in the world almost as deadly as the marines themselves.

And yet even by Spartan standards this child's abilities surpassed that of any spartan child born in the last century.

And with the proper training this child will definitely become a legend in the spartan community. He might even go down in history as the greatest spartan warrior in history.
