What if the child is a girl? Just to break the cycle further. Because they're both sons
Ohhh a girl yes yes. Cute
I think it would be so important to them to respect their child's autonomy and personhood!
Babies start getting a sense of gender and gender roles around 2-3.
I imagine it going down kinda like this 🥰
The straw hats are visiting Wano again a couple years after Yamato and Ace's baby was born.
Baby Ash is three years old and has been playing with his aunts and uncles on the Thousand Sunny. They are very excited!
Luffy comes galloping in with the toddler on his shoulders and bounces baby along back to the dad. Baby Ash is breathlessly recounting all the day's pirate adventures, all the ways they played pirates with the king of the pirates!!
Baby Ash: Daddy daddy daddies daddies!! I pay wif capn Uncle niper king and Franky make me fwy VOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMM! Bobin can play all games wit me. Daddy when I gwo up I'm gon be a gwil so I can hit boyth with climb-climba-... Clima... Weahver stick, funder boom!

Yamato: OH BRAVE AND KIND OFF SPRING IF YOU ARE A GIRL WHO HITS BOYS WITH STICKS THAT SHOOT THUNDER WE WILL ADVENTURE TILL WE FIND THE GRANDEST AND MOST POWERFUL WEATHER POWERED MELEE WEAPON ON THE GRAND LINE!
Ace, swooping baby Ash into his arms: you know baby, that any people of any gender can fight. But baby if you're a girl who is gonna be a weather witch, that's perfect.
