《Diamond Jozu (English)》Chapter ten: Diamond Jozu
Advertisement
...
After having carefully analyzed the advantages and disadvantages concerning Robin, Joz decided to recruit her.
He was going to recruit her but without openly revealing her identity. He did not yet have a strong crew like the Straw Hats to defend her (especially with the protagonist aura).
Other than himself, none of the other (unofficial) 'members' had the strength and determination to defend her.
The real question was whether Robin was going to accept ?!
Either way, she had nowhere to go, so he already knew the answer.
As he left his cabin, he felt that the atmosphere was calm compared to before. Logically, they had just gone the maritime territory of the kingdom of Prek for good.
"Captain!"
Seeing Joz's return, the 'crew' greeted him.
Joz nodded and said, "You can go wash and change your dirty clothes if you want."
Hearing this, the slaves were ecstatic: it had been such a long time, this foul odor.
Some had gone to change and wash, and others had preferred to rest.
Everyone accepted Joz's advice.
The slave who called himself chef had decided to go to the kitchen after changing.
"Sir, where are we going next?" asked the young navigator
"What's your name?" Joz asked without answering his question.
"My name is David, BOSS," said the navigator.
"Hmm, David, I'm going to be a pirate. Would you like to join me?"
"Yes, chief, you saved my life," David said without hesitation. He had no guarantee that he wouldn't get caught again by slave traders, so we might as well stay with Joz, who was powerful.
Especially since Joz had saved his life and, like many young people influenced by Roger, he had already thought of being a pirate.
After all, it's not the Golden Age of piracy for nothing. It was the children who Roger had most influenced; that was why the more the years passed, the more young pirates there were.

"No need to call me chef; you can call me captain."
"No problem, captain," said David enthusiastically.
Robin watched this scene without batting an eyelid: 'Pirate.' After all, the stolen ship was not that big, so many people could hear them.
The slaves who had heard this had all rushed and wanted to embark with Joz as a Pirate.
"Very well!" Joz said with a big smile.
"Thank you! Captain!" roared the crew excitedly.
"I'll give you one last chance to give up pirate life when we get to the next island," Joz said. He didn't know if these people wanted to become pirates out of envy or not to be isolated or killed.
"No problem, captain!"
..
"By the way, captain, what's the name of our crew?" David asked
"The name? I already have it in mind," Joz said with a smile.
Everyone was interested in the name; after all, they would have to wear it during their pirate life.
"The name of the crew will be .... Diamond Crew! We will be the Diamond Crew in the future!" Joz said aloud while transforming part of his body into Diamond. He wanted to wear the name 'Diamond King' in the future.
[Ding! The pirate mission has been completed. You get G1 demonic fruit pill and 5 HP]
[devil fruit pill G1: pill improving the development of devil fruit]
Just as the announcement of the crew name, the voice of the system echoed in his head.
The crew members celebrated the name!
"Diamond Crew! Diamond Crew! Diamond Crew!"
"From now on, we are the Diamond Crew."
With these exclamations, the resting slaves awoke, and when they heard the news, they all decided to join the crew.
With that, The Diamond Pirates had 21 members without taking Joz into account.

Joz lacked framework, and he didn't intend to make a crew as elitist as Shanks or Luffy (even if Luffy had an independent fleet).
He turned to Robin.
Joz wanted to make Robin a part of his crew. She had a paramecia-type fruit and was enormously talented; not to make it a framework would be a loss. In a fight, his entire team was no more substantial than her.
Robin felt Joz's gaze fall on her; she understood straight away what Joz wanted and said, "Captain, is there something wrong?"
Joz smiles when he hears this: "HAHAHA, well, I just got a crew, but there is still no frame. I think you would do the trick."
Robin thought for a moment and accepted the offer.
The crew was surprised to learn that the first executive would be a young woman.
"Captain, who is this woman?" David asked. He had noticed that Joz seemed to know this woman who was not yet with them in the arena.
"Nico Robin, bonus at 79 million Berry," explained Joz; he did not intend to create taboos in his crew.
"79 MILLION BERRY ???"
The eyes of the crew members widened. Such a young woman had such a great bonus.
Unbelievable
"Nico ... Nico .... Robin AH! I remember that was the girl nicknamed the demon ..." one crew member seemed better informed than the rest and suddenly seemed to remember a few things. He immediately covered his mouth for fear of offending the young woman with the terrible reputation: Especially since she had become one of the executives of the crew.

A Titan's Crusade
Erik Thayne spent most of his life being brutally ridiculed and tormented for his weight and physical appearance, among other things. A social pariah and diagnosed with an eating disorder no one has an explanation or treatment for, Erik spent years trying to overcome his issues with his personal image and escape the ridicule and vicious torment of his peers. After years of dedicated effort, and a fresh start in a town away from his childhood and adolescent tormentors, he had finally begun to truly realize what he'd been striving for all along. Only, fate apparently has other plans because in the blink of an eye, Erik found himself snatched from Earth and taken to another universe, another world, where he is offered the chance to be more than he'd ever imagined. Now, he has to fight to restore the Balance between Chaos and Order on a world of swords and magic, in a universe governed by the System's laws, which resemble those of RPGs from Earth. Erik learned to embrace the things about himself that others taught him to hate, using them to reforge his physical identity into something more removed from his old self-loathing. But can he learn to embrace the darkest parts of his mind just as he did the reviled aspects of his body and become who he needs to be to succeed in the task set before him? It might just prove easier to stalk in the dark as a monster than to walk in the light as a man... *This is my first time publishing anything I've written to a public audience. Due to formatting issues, I forwent traditional stat-screens for something a little less problematic, delineating stat screens by separating them from regular text with horizontal lines in a lighter-grey coloration. Let me know if you like them or not. Criticism is entirely welcome, but please don't hate on my work after only reading 1 chapter. This is a writing project I intend to complete but I have committment problems so we'll see how long this goes on. Also, fair warning, as the description implies, the main protagonist is intended to be someone who has been treated cruelly, developed antisocial tendencies, and ultimately has to question his own humanity--or lack thereof. This story is not intended to be brutally dark but I will definitely be trying to follow a darker theme. It is intended to be violent and some scenes later in the story might be...alarming. There will likely also be some light, non-graphic (think more implied with crude jokes and conversation than actual details, there will be no full-blown sex scenes)relationship scenes planned later and if you're opposed to either a bisexual or gay main character, stay away. I haven't yet decided which way he's going to swing but the odds on him being straight are relatively miniscule, and I've always wanted to write a story about a gay man who basically looks like a lumberjack because who doesn't like giving conventional stereo-types the middle finger? This will NOT be a harem story, and I have no intention to focus on romance over action--it's a consequence of character development where I'm concerned, not the be-all-end-all of the story. The cover-art does not, in any way, belong to me. It was an image titled the Druid King (by duskanmarkovic according to the file name) which I found on Google Images. Until I can get something commissioned, this is the best stand-in image I could find.
