[God of War] Why didn't the gods just strike Kratos down when he's weakened?

We see that in GOW3 after Kratos swims the river Styx he is incredibly weakened, barely able to stand. So this seems to be the ultimate time for Zeus to come in and tear Kratos a new one. So why didn't he just teleport there and slaughter Kratos then and there?

(I'm just asking for the peeps who don't know. I already know a good enough reason why zeus would not.)

Zeus was too busy defending Olympus from the Titans to bother hunting down Kratos. Undoubtedly, he would have after the emergency ended, but Kratos managed to rejoin the fight quickly enough to make it not matter.
