Answer:

Zeus sends dangerous storms to punish Odysseus and his men for their actions on the island of Cicones.

Step-by-step explanation:

After Oddyseus and his crew visited the island of Cicones to get everything they could eliminating men and making women slaves, it was evident that they were driven by avarice and hunger of conquering these people.

So, just before they sail away from the island, the Cicone tribe attacks them., and after that, when they are already navigating, Zeus sent many storms to punish Odysseus and his men for their greediness and the terrible acts they had carried out.
