《Diamond Jozu (English)》Chapter three: Diamond Jozu

...
The audience was surprised; how is it possible that a weak man could make a giant tiger fly?
The tiger's eyes were red: he was furious, his tail was moving in all directions.
ROAAAAAAR
With that roar, the tiger rushed forward again and jumped on Joz.
Joz took his time to build up the rest of his strength (he didn't have all his power). Joz gave it an uppercut in the jaw when the tiger was within range, which made it fly again.
Without his Devil Fruit, Joz couldn't have punched this tiger. His skin and fur were thick and challenging, but nothing like a diamond which was one of the most rigid materials in the world.
The tiger stood up and continued to attack Joz furiously. When in Joz, he kept his guard and continued to dodge the scratches and bites of the tiger; he counterattacked at times with powerful hooks or uppercuts.
This scene astonished the public, who were immediately cheerful; they shouted to encourage the tiger or Joz.
The arena host was glad to see that he had just acquired a new nugget. He was planning on extracting all the money Joz could bring him until he was no longer profitable.
..
As time went on, both creatures got more and more tired.
Joz, not wanting to fail his first mission, chained the tiger until he fell dead. (Luffy vs. Lucci)
Everyone was surprised at this result. Considering the situation, the two were sure to collapse from exhaustion, but Joz surprised them. The arena remained silent upon seeing the death of the tiger.
[Ding! the mission was successful, and you received 'elixir of physical strengthening (G1) and 5 HP]
[Elixir of physical strengthening (G1): Elixir that improves physical attributes, penalty: the more the product is consumed, the more resistance to it increases]

[System point: currency in the system store]
The voice echoed in Joz's head again.
'Status' thought Joz, and with those words, an interface appeared in front of him.
[Host: Joz
Age: 24 years old
Physics: lower level 2
Devil Fruit: Kira Kira no mi (stage 1)
inventory: Elixir of physical strengthening (G1)
PS: 5]
Joz wasn't exactly surprised that his physique was so weak; he was a slave after all. Even his fruit was not at its peak, but he was still amazed that he could use it even with such a weak physique.
Blackbeard could use the white beard fruit after consumption in the original artwork because he had a solid and energetic physique.
The physique is, after all, the foundation of a person.
Without a muscular physique, Joz will not be able to show good aptitudes.
He knew that an ordinary man (excluding monsters like Big Mom or Douglas Barrett) had an 'ordinary' physique with the information received. In a weakened state, he was 'inferior.' Above ordinary, there was intermediate then superior and many others. Each row was separated into 3 'floors': lower E1, E2, and E3, with E3 the strongest of the three. So one could quickly notice that Joz's condition was not at its peak.
..
Joz looked at the spectators, who were screaming in excitement, coldly.
..
Inside a VIP room at the Colosseum.
The arena managers watched the arena scene via video snail, and his face was excited. "This slave turned out to be a demonic fruit user."
It seems that a new Colosseum star has appeared.
The supervisor took the snail phone directly and called the host.
In the same room, another person was there, wearing a dark green coat that covered his body and head. But you could still see part of his face. This person appeared to be a woman.

On the high platform, the host who had received the call from his boss shouted: "WHAT AN AMAZING SCENE, THIS SLAVE SUCCEEDED IN KILLING THE WILD BEAST."
"OUAAAAAAAAAAA" shouted the audience
"How is it possible?"
"A crystal man?"
"Diamond, I think."
"Ouaaaah, he is so powerful."
Everyone was talking loudly.
The slaves behind Joz were shaking (excitement); thanks to Joz, they had managed to get out of this Colosseum.
They gazed at Joz's body which was still wrapped in diamonds with admiration.
"Ladies and Gentlemen, I bring you good news. I just received the advice from the manager of the Colosseum. In the future, this slave will become an official gladiator of the arena," said the host enthusiastically and continued: "If you didn't understand the situation that had unfolded, this new gladiator ate the diamond fruit: Kira Kira no mi .... YES THIS LEGENDARY TREASURE CURSED BY THE SEA."
"Devil fruit?"
"So that was it aaaaaaah, BREATHTAKING, I want one."
"Transformer in jewelry"
The vast majority of the public was surprised; the other part (the nobles) were proud to have been able to discover their secret before the plebs. They (the nobles) looked at the rest of the audience with contempt.
"WOULD YOU LIKE TO SEE MORE ?????" cried the host
"YES! YES! YES! YES! BLOOD"
The arena echoed in unison.
"Okay, the next fight will be against Brony, who has a 10-game winning streak," the host said excitedly: he was looking forward to it too.
..
Joz's eyes were cold.
This man had decided on his new identity!
TSK!
A vial shining with golden light had suddenly appeared in his mouth (Joz).
The next moment, the golden liquid flowed down his throat.
Immediately, immense energy invaded him and spread through his body.
His body had become stronger!

The Struggles of a Modern Vampire
I don't think I'm doing this right.... Wait is it typing? I think... wait... Damn nails. What if I click No, I don't want to see cat... that quite cute actually. Can I order it? Wait... Greetings cattle with eyes! Yes, it is I, Richard Wythenshawe. Do not be afraid, I can't hurt you, but feel free to comment your name and blood type. I have suffered in silence long enough and I have found this place of royalty to express my dire feelings of discontent through the medium of literature. BEHOLD MY WIT, HOW DO I.... Behold my journal of darkness, my fiendish ramblings, my exorcizing of my discontent of being a night dweller in this age of technology with eye pads and eye phones. Honestly, how is a blood sucker supposed to get a meal around here when there's so many eyes? It sounds unnatural, and that's coming from me.

8 100Moonlight
Three powers were discovered and harnessed so that they could be controlled. These powers are required to keep the planet alive, and need human bearers to focus and amplify their individual powers, but at what cost to their bearers? Power over the elements, controlling the flow of time, and dictating life and death are the powers that three young adults wield in Moonlight, but their lives will be changed forever. Moonlight follows the stories of Claire, Jayden, and Seraphine, as they learn to control these powers that desire to consume them. Author Notes: Hello! This isn't my first attempt at writing a story, and it isn't even my first attempt at writing this particular story, but I'm not in any way what I would call "experienced". I decided to upload my writing here because I just wanted to get my ideas out there, and I wanted to get some constructive criticism for my writing from the RRL community. All comments are welcome, but please try to keep them positive and constructive! If you leave a rating, I would appreciate it if you left a short explanation of what you liked and what I can improve on. I'll be uploading each chapter as I finish them, but this is still the first draft so anything and everything is subject to change. The cover art is drawn by me, but I'm in no way married to it. I just wanted something that showed the three magical sources, as I picture them in my head. If you do any art based on this story, send it to me! I would love to see it. I'll stop talking now, I hope you enjoy the story!
