Since there was no request for a male specifically, Big Mom had no choice but to consider the unmarried females in her family that were within the requirements too.
Although she much preferred there to be a son who could help in producing her a strong and talented grandchild, she would have to settle with gaining a connection through marriage even if she had to consider some other options.
It was very likely that Alyssia did not wish for a partner who was affiliated with her family due to various reasons connected with her alliances and public images so there would need to be a plan from Big Mom to make it acceptable.
She already had a plan in mind which was to set up some children to try to gain Alyssia's affection enough for a marriage to take place.
Once it was confirmed to be a done deal, she would disown and cut off all relations with her child so that the relationship would not affect Alyssia's position.
After gaining some advice from her advisors, she came to understand that it was a smart strategy that cut off one of her children from the family in a public way letting everyone know of such an event if she was going to be able to fool everyone.
She would have to cut off contact with that child publicly and if it was possible to do so without getting caught then she would keep contacting them in secret to relay her orders and check on the progress.
If Alyssia proved to be a bigger obstacle during that time then she would have something arranged for Alyssia to be removed from the world.
Each of her children had a wide range of useful Devil Fruit abilities so it would not be difficult to pull off such a plan.
If her child betrayed her in the end and refused to go along with the plan then she would include them in her plans as someone to eliminate too.
Meanwhile on a distant island that had a single castle remaining while the rest of it was full of growing trees and wreckages of a past civilisation, three people were sat inside the castle.
One was a pink haired girl in a gothic style corset dress, the other was a green haired man with a sash around his waist with three swords hanging there and finally was a tall man with piercing eyes wearing a large hat and a large sword was resting very close to him.
Hawkeye Mihawk looked through the newspaper and his eyes widened upon seeing a familiar portrait along with the details of the article. "Wow.. it looks like I have another powerful person within my ranks.
I wonder what big changes she will bring to the Warlords.. I still remember my battle with her clearly and it still makes my blood boil. To think that it was not too long ago that I had fought her and suffered a defeat yet now she has went on to best Vice Admiral Garp."
There was a hint of respect in his voice as he spoke of Alyssia as if he greatly admired her for reaching such a stage at a young age. 'So many new talents are emerging in the world lately and even this new student of mine is proving to be worth teaching too. How fun the world is becoming.'
Roronoa Zoro listened quietly then reached out towards the discarded newspaper, he read it and then sat back in his seat with a defeated expression. 'My sole purpose in life was to become the world's greatest swordsman and defeat Mihawk but..
Now a lot of what I thought was a huge goal that I must strive towards seems so small now. I need to be so much stronger for Luffy now and I need to be able to become strong enough to fight off any of the biggest threats that we may encounter once reunited.
I cannot slack off and need to push myself even harder if we are to survive in the New World. Only then can I accomplish my goals without letting everyone else down.'
Seeing him lost in thought and in a weird state, Perona slapped him on the back of the head and scolded him. "Hey! Get your head out of the clouds and eat up what I prepared! So what if big things are happening outside, now you must focus on the present and train while you can!"
Zoro rubbed the back of his head then started to yell back as the two started to argue back and forth until they were scolded by Mihawk for being too loud.
The three ate and drank together quietly afterwards until they went on with their daily activities on the island.
