Elbaf (Ch. 1127)

• Nami’s thundercloud homie is at Nami’s side when she wakes in the giants’ village (“Good morning, Nami. Where are we?”, p. 3). She uses him through the Green Fairy hallucination — “Extend, Zeus!!!” and zapping the “monsters” (pp. 6–7).

Wano Country — Onigashima (Ch. 1041) — chooses Nami over Big Mom

• See Nami, Big Mom’s Soul-Homies Can Be Turned Against Her — Zeus Defects To Nami.

Wano Country — Onigashima Raid (Ch. 1016)

• Reborn as Nami’s weapon homie. When Hera was about to absorb him, Zeus’s soul “slipped out of [his] original body” and was pushed into Nami’s Sorcery Climate Baton at the instant Hera bit down — “I’ve been reborn!!” He now fights as “the mighty Zeus, right arm of Nami,” manifesting a Weather Egg / storm cloud for her lightning blast (pp. 5–10). The recurring-asset facet of the homie-loyalty seed pays off — see Big Mom’s Soul-Homies Can Be Turned Against Her — Zeus Defects To Nami.
• Notes he cannot leave the baton without “Mama’s power.” Nami offers to rename him “Fluff”; Zeus rejects it and keeps the name Zeus (p. 10).

Wano Country — Onigashima Raid (Ch. 1015)

• Resurfaces living inside Nami’s Climate Baton, fully defected and retaining his doting personality (“My Climate Baton… just talked!!” / “Heh heh ♡” / “I’m glad to hear about Straw Hat…”). Payoff of his Big Mom → Nami defection. See Big Mom’s Soul-Homies Can Be Turned Against Her — Zeus Defects To Nami.

Wano Country — Onigashima Raid (Ch. 1013)

• Replaced by Big Mom’s new homie Hera and permanently renounced (“Wrong, Zeus. I don’t need you anymore!!”).
• Despairing and alone, makes a final open rebellion against Big Mom to cover Nami’s escape — “I’m going to rebel! For the first and last time!!” / “This is how I want to be remembered!!”
• Hera devours his soul on Big Mom’s command before he can act; reduced to a soulless husk who can’t even eat the black balls Nami throws him (pp. 9, 11–12). The climax/recurring-asset facet of the homie-loyalty seed. See Big Mom’s Soul-Homies Can Be Turned Against Her — Zeus Defects To Nami.

Wano Country — Onigashima Raid (Ch. 1012)

• Appears mid-melee searching for Big Mom and Nami — “Where’s Mama?! I’m coming to help!!” / “What about Nami?!”

Wano Country — Onigashima Raid (Ch. 1011)

• Referenced only (not shown): Big Mom’s side notes “I thought we captured the lightning already” — Zeus is now with Nami, prompting Big Mom to replace him with the new homie Hera (p. 3). (Referenced only — no last_appearance advance.)

Wano Country — Onigashima rooftop (Ch. 1009)

• Answers to Big Mom on the rooftop (“Zeus?!”, p. 15; “Help me, Zeus!!!”, p. 19), despite the earlier defection to Nami (Ch. 0903) — homie-loyalty tension unresolved on-page. (Whether this is the same homie is a forward question.)

Wano Country — Onigashima Raid (Ch. 1004)

• Channels Nami’s “Thunder Lance Tempo” against Ulti in the Skull Dome (pp. 11–12).

Wano Country — Onigashima Raid (Ch. 988)

Wano Country (Ch. 933) — summoned by Nami at Orochi’s banquet

• Summoned by Nami (“You called, Nami?!”); offers her a “weather egg” and unleashes a lightning blast that blows the disguised Straw Hats free of Orochi’s collapsing banquet hall (pp. 15–16). Still housed in Nami’s “Sorcery Climate Baton.”

Wano Country (Ch. 930) — referenced, absent

• Arriving at Wano, Big Mom demands his return — “it’s time for you to return to me, Zeus!!!” (p. 7) — as she challenges Kaido at the entrance falls. Zeus is not shown (he is still housed in Nami’s Sorcery Climate Baton). Record as a reference only.

Reverie / Levely (Ch. 903)

• Permanently relocated inside Nami’s upgraded Clima-Tact (“Sorcery Climate Baton”); content as her live-in thundercloud, boasting “I get to live in a baton that never leaves contact with Nami’s body… Nice to have a powerful servant. BUT LET ME BE CLEAR!! I WAS HER SERVANT FIRST!!!” (pp. 2–3). Resolves the WCI defection of Ch. 890. See Big Mom’s Soul-Homies Can Be Turned Against Her — Zeus Defects To Nami, Nami.

Whole Cake Island — drained “into oblivion”; offered to Nami (Ch. 890)

• Lured by treats and made to dump his charge into Nami’s Clima-Tact (“Electric charge black balls!”), Zeus is discharged “into oblivion” and reduced to a shrivelled, dying husk (pp. 15-19). Brook — immune to lightning — is the safe bait.
• Nami offers the spent homie a choice — “Will you be my servant?… Or will you die?” (p. 20) — the first move toward Zeus crossing from Big Mom to the Straw Hat side by force. See Big Mom’s Soul-Homies Can Be Turned Against Her — Zeus Defects To Nami, Homies.

Whole Cake Island — berated; summoned back to Mama (Ch. 889)

• Berated by Prometheus for having let “that enemy woman” (Nami) use him “like a tool” and for going back to eat wildfire; warned he is “done for” if he betrays Mama again over treats (“I’m sorry…”).

Whole Cake Island — confirmed gone from Big Mom (Ch. 879) — referenced, absent

• Confirmed no longer with Big Mom: she gripes “Now where did Zeus go?! It’s his job to help Mama cross the sea!!” and resorts to a candy-slug homie to cross the water (pp. 6-7) — a downstream beat of his defection to Nami. See Big Mom’s Soul-Homies Can Be Turned Against Her — Zeus Defects To Nami.

Whole Cake Island (Ch. 876)

• Now deployed on Nami’s side: his lightning powers the giant Climate-Baton bolt that buries Big Mom (she splits the crater open and climbs out). When the bolt also strikes the Straw Hats, he apologizes — “Sorry!! It wasn’t my choice!!” — a divided-loyalty tell (p. 17). See Big Mom’s Soul-Homies Can Be Turned Against Her — Zeus Defects To Nami, Homies.
• Big Mom remarks the “lightning cloud egg sure was tasty” — she ate his lightning (p. 17).

Whole Cake Island (Ch. 875)

• Revealed to be a glutton who cannot resist storm-cloud “treats”: Nami lures him from Big Mom’s side with a “gourmet” weather egg “packed full of juicy storm clouds,” and he eats it despite his master’s orders (pp. 6, 11–12).
• Nami detonates “Tempo!!!” inside him, turning the swallowed weather egg into a massive lightning strike that scatters Big Mom’s pursuit (p. 13). First time a Straw Hat manipulates Zeus through appetite rather than the vivre card. See Big Mom’s Soul-Homies Can Be Turned Against Her — Zeus Defects To Nami.

Whole Cake Island — defects to Nami (Ch. 874)

• Eats Nami’s storm-clouds and abandons Big Mom. His soul-origin is stated on-page: “the cloud was created from Mama’s soul” / “mama can ride me, because she gave me her soul” (pp. 10–11). When Nami offers “black balls to eat every single day” and asks “Will you be my servant?”, Zeus agrees — “I WILL!!!” (pp. 11–12). Shows a soul-homie can be turned by appetite. See Big Mom Controls The Weather Through Prometheus And Zeus, Soru Soru no Mi.

Whole Cake Island — thunder strike on Judge (Ch. 871)

Wano Country — Onigashima (Ch. 1046)

• With Nami amid the fire; asked to make rain on the flames — balks (“That fire’ll give me burns!!”, p. 7).
