I don't think Percy will poseidon, as I think he learnt where hate for the gods can get you. Poseidon and Percy have had a rocky relationship from the start but over the years it has got better and it may be good enough to survive everything. I think Percy will just ask why he didn't help. I think from all the enemies that were his children, Poseidon was ashamed, to have Percy meet them, he was the same when Percy met Triton and Antaeus, he hated Percy meeting his children who were rude or plain evil. Poseidon may want to keep his distance from Percy because of that but I think it's something else.

I think that when Polybotes said if he killed percy Poseidon would be weakened, since Poseidon admitted he was his favorite son and most likely the Olympian council knew this and said he couldn't see or help Percy to try and break the closeness of the two so if he did die Posiedon wouldn't be weakened during the fight with the giants and Gaia
