Although Vic only comes once a year, the time the family of four spends together cannot be calculated in real time. Although it's only a few days in reality, it's no less than a year in the illusion, so Vic can't be considered to have abandoned his wife and children.
Moreover, because Vic created the illusion, the two children's development was different from other children their age. Vic's illusion was the ability to deceive the brain. As long as Vic started and ended it seriously, the brain would not realize that it was a dream or an illusion.
In other words, in the subconscious of the two children, their brains and mental age are already that of four years old, which makes them seem like geniuses to outsiders and even more lovable.
Their physical growth is influenced by their brains, exceeding that of their peers, making them significantly taller than normal people their age. Of course, in a world with such a wide range of body sizes, this is not surprising at all.
So in the eyes of the two children, Vic only spends a year with them every other year. But with Gion, a woman who Vic to the core, smoothing things over, the two children have no complaints about Vic.
Although Vic had confessed his illusions to Gion, Gion's mind showed no resistance whatsoever. Generally, when people know about illusions, their minds instinctively want to resist entering them. However, Gion managed to tame her subconscious mind so that her family could live happily in the illusions.
Moreover, Vic's illusions are different. With the help of the Rumble-Rumble Fruit, even if the mind is on guard against the illusion, the real electrical signals transmitted cannot be faked. People with weak wills cannot resist them and will soon fall into the world woven by the illusion.
This is why Rebecca and the others, even knowing that Vic had been using illusions to help them cultivate and could keep pulling them into those illusions, never actively resisted Vic's illusions.
The same thing happened in the Matrix. Didn't Morpheus and the others know that the Matrix was a virtual world? But once they were connected to the neural hub, they had no choice. In the illusion, they would still get injured or die as they were supposed to. Only Neo, the savior, was able to transcend it after dying once.
This is the difference between neural electrical signals and pure hallucinations. As long as there is an electrical signal input, the brain will operate according to instinct. Therefore, Vic's hallucinations cannot be broken simply by knowing them.
There are only two ways to avoid this: one is to use powerful Armament Haki to sever the Rumble-Rumble Fruit's ability.
Another method is Observation Haki Killer, which directly blocks the illusions created by Vic's Observation Haki. However, there are not many people with this ability, and Vic has never used illusions to fight, so he has never failed.
Vic sensed that only Gion and the two children were in the house, so he pushed the door open and went in. Although Vice Admiral Tsuru cared a lot about his younger sister Gion, he couldn't stay with Gion and take care of them forever.
The Donquixote Family in North Blue has been causing quite a stir in recent years. Last year, they even shot and killed Donquixote Rosinante, the adopted son who was sent by the Sengoku period as an undercover agent. Yes, Rosinante experienced a life-or-death separation from Rosinante last year and ate the Op-Op Fruit, thus escaping the Donquixote Family.
Therefore, out of respect for Sengoku, Vice Admiral Tsuru could not slack off on the Doflamingo matter. Vic had reminded Sengoku of this matter out of a desire to Sengoku a favor, but Sengoku did not heed the reminder from this traitor.
At that time, Vic was being hunted by the Holy Knights and also had to help Rebecca and the others train, so he didn't get involved. Op-Op Fruit no Mi, and Vic didn't care much about it.
Law is indeed a talented individual, but Vic felt it was better to let him develop on his own, as they were destined to be on the same side in the future. Meanwhile, Doflamingo became even more aggressive after learning about the title of Shichibukai, trying to attract the World Government's attention.
He also wanted this title, otherwise he wouldn't dare to seize Dressrosa as a pirate. Therefore, Vice Admiral Tsuru had no time to care about Gion and hadn't returned to Marine Headquarters for a long time.
"Dad!"
"Dad!"
When Vic opened the door, he attracted the attention of the three people in the living room. The two porcelain dolls immediately recognized Vic and happily abandoned their elderly mother, running to the door to hug his legs.
This reminded Vic of when Kuina was little, she would run over and hug his legs like this. Coming back to his senses, Vic's face lit up with a big smile, and he picked up both children, one in each arm.
In his previous life, Vic died suddenly before getting married. In this life, however, he has such a pair of well-behaved and adorable children. If it weren't for the war that would sweep the world in the future, he really wanted to take them away from this vortex.
But reality doesn't allow it. Once you're involved, you can't just ignore it anymore. Living in such a corrupt world isn't comfortable either; you'll encounter unpleasant things wherever you go. How can you live happily? You can't just find a deserted island to live in seclusion; that would be too cruel for the two children.
"Hahaha! Did you miss your dad? Mua! Mua!"
Vic laughed heartily and kissed each of the two porcelain dolls on the cheek. Gion, sitting upright on the sofa, watched the father and son and father and daughter with a smile on her face, without any jealousy.
In Gion's heart, Vic's position was above that of her two children; the two children were more like objects she could turn her thoughts to when Vic was not around.
While it's true that being a mother might be a bit inappropriate, even among children, there are differences in who you like the most and who you like the most. Parents can't possibly love all their children equally, let alone the relationship between a husband and children!
Gion had a child with Vic because she was so deeply in love with him that she couldn't extricate herself from it. So the premise here is that Gion Vic, which is why they had a child together. Therefore, it's understandable that Gion Vic more, but that doesn't mean that Gion didn't love the child.
"Think!"
"I want to! I really want to!"
The two children obviously missed Vic; otherwise, they wouldn't have rushed over to him the moment they saw him!
Vic carried the two children and sat down next to Gion. He then pulled Gion into his arms and kissed her on Gion cheek. Gion didn't want to get that kiss so easily and quickly turned her head, pouting her lips as she searched for Vic's lips.
But Vic didn't do as she wished. The child was still in his arms; kissing and wet kissing were too much and would have a bad influence. There was plenty of time; what was the rush?
Although Gion was furious, she was helpless. She knew she couldn't force Vic, and she also understood that Vic could easily make her feel like she was in heaven!
I don't know how Vic developed such a lewd ability, ugh! Just thinking about it makes me blush! But the physical sensations are hard to suppress, which is one of the reasons why she was so obsessed with Vic back then.
" Vic! Have you been secretly visiting me and the kids lately? Why haven't you shown up? Are you afraid I'll eat you alive?"
Gion the unusual behavior her child had exhibited in the past two years, Gion bit her lower lip and asked, her face slightly flushed.
"No! I've been too busy lately, I haven't had time to come see you all!"
With Vic's current strength, it would be easy for him to see the children. He just needs to be careful and there's no need to be so secretive as to guard against Gion and the two children.
