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

...
The shock wave had made Joz back two steps and Mark 4 back. So we could already see who had the advantage.
Joz was shocked that someone could take his diamond punch.
Mark was also shocked at the strength of Joz's fruit.
When Joz saw the transformation of Mark's fist, he immediately understood how he had been able to resist.
Mark had a fruit almost identical to Joz's except that instead of being diamond, it was iron.
Joz's crew was shocked to see this transformation.
"He has the same type of fruit as the captain."
"It seems to be made of iron."
"In terms of logic, the captain should win since diamond is stronger than iron, right?"
"It depends on the user," Daz said with a grim face.
..
Mark's fist was iron, and Joz's was diamond.
Seeing this, Joz smiled and turned his body into a diamond (all except the eyes), and Mark did the same.
"Looks like our fight will be hand to hand," said Mark.
"Diamond vs. Iron," Joz replied, smiling.
"I would break your diamond, know the" Mark had said this sentence not out of confidence but arrogance. He thought that even if the diamond was harder than iron, he could beat it a lot with his mastery. After all, he had already beaten plenty of demonic fruit holders (zoan).
"That's what we are going to see."
The two men rushed towards each other.
BOOOM BAMMM BOOOOM
Each hit was given to not only kill but also to show who had the better fruit.
'BOOST' thought Joz, who was about to give a 'DIAMOND PUNCH' to Mark's face.
Mark was planning to parry by attacking with his fist.
BOOOOOOM
To everyone's surprise, Mark flew into the crowd behind him.
"Tsk, I feel like he's hitting harder," Mark said, coughing up blood.

He stood up, and you could see that his fist was slightly deformed.
"HAHAHA, not that strong!" Joz looked at Mark with contempt, and he knew this type of person well: if you don't reframe them, they will be and will remain arrogant (crocodile, enel, rob Lucci, arlong, etc ... even if for enel it is a bit different).
"Ready for round 2," Joz said, striking a fighting pose.
BOOOM BOOOOM BOOOOOOM
Their fight was simply a pure hand-to-hand fight, but to the disappointment of the Bena family, it was Mark who ended up on the ground: k.o
His body had Joz's fist marks on him, proving that Joz was doing him a lot more damage than he thought. Joz's body was average; without his diamond body, it looked like he hadn't fought.
If Mark was still alive, it was because Joz wanted to recover his fruit. He had seen the potential of this one, and he would miss more than to find the ideal person.
"Boss Mark!"
"Impossible that he loses!"
The members of the Bena family had their mouths wide open, and they had never seen Mark lose, so it was hard to believe.
The number 1 of the Bena family had just collapsed in the face of Joz's blows.
"An ant that wanted to kill the elephant, arrogant Tsk, you thought with your poor iron you could beat me," Joz said, looking at him.
"The captain is amazing."
"HAHAHAHA, I always believed in it."
"Same I did not doubt for a second"
"The captain's fruit is the most powerful."
David and the others were laughing and applauding Joz's victory. The contrast was visible between the two camps.
Daz's tense muscles relaxed, and so did the worries in Robin's heart.
..
Joz walked over to the mansion, and the members of the Bena family were scared. With each new step, Joz took, they backed up. Their rifles were shaking, the drops of sweat were more and more numerous.

Those soldiers who were feared were afraid of one man.
But can we blame them?
Joz was too strong: bullet-resistant + defeated Mark = INVINCIBLE (in their heads).
"I leave you two choices: death or flight," said Joz with murderous intent that made them tremble.
If Joz made this proposal, it was because he knew he couldn't destroy the Bena family. However, he could still beat them by killing all the high-ranking officers.

A Sinner's Eden
The Earth of the future is united under a single government, but not all things are well. The shape of the playing field may be changed, but the powerful still rule the weak.And those who do not conform with the rest of society are exiled to another world. A world that not even the technology of the future managed to tame.It should have been humanity's New World but ended up as nothing more than a penal colony. A place where the exiled are sent to die. Motivated by revenge, Magnus sets out on a quest to bring his own justice to his enemies. For that purpose, he is willing to go further than most others.But then he learns that if he truly wishes to change things, he can only find his answers beyond the gate. Having lived most of her life as an exile, Astra is a woman of few interests aside from survival and climbing the ranks of her clan.To achieve those goals, she certainly won't be squeamish when a chance literally falls into her lap, or will she? ——————————————————————————————— I am trying to go with a survival/medieval setting in this one. People from a technologically advanced society are thrown into a world where they can't maintain their tech. They are forced to rely on medieval technology where they have to make do with the limited resources they have and what little of their old technology is still working. Their gene manipulation allows them to have something akin to superpowers, but that doesn't help much against the monsters of their new world. Not sure yet whether sufficiently advanced technology will be discovered later on to count as magic. ——————————————————————————————— Author's Comment: I was asked about reading my work on other sites. The answer is simple: Currently, I am not active in any other networks than royalroadl.com. Only here, I correct mistakes and errors. If you read it anywhere else and have to pay for it or have to deal with an annoying amount of advertisement, You Are Being Betrayed. You would do good if you make other people in that network aware of it. This is a free project of mine for the purpose of having fun. And if people try to make money with it you shouldn't bother visiting their website. The only one whom I actually allowed to have my work on his website is Armaell who invested the time to compile them into pdf. (http://armaell-library.net/author/andur)

8 53Beta Test
I'm sure I'm in for some colorful criticism, But if even a few people enjoy this, I'd be happy. As of right now the story is set in Delaware around 2005'ish'. A young man from the streets, aquires a beta test invitation in an unorthodox way. The plan is to have a comical adventure in an experimental virtual reality game. I can easily transition it to a full story if its well received. If not I hope atleast one person kinda likes it. P.s. This is a work of fiction, with made up characters. Any likeness is coincidence.
8 268Jordan Leoren – A Tale From The Wizarding World
Jordan Leoren is, unfortunately, not your average 10-year-old boy. He is handsome, from a rich family, and has been a very popular child model and actor since the age of 4. His long golden locks and piercing blue eyes could be easily identified by anyone in England and many across the world...and he hates it. He doesn't want the fame and attention, nor does he want jealous looks from other boys when the girls swarm him. All he wants from life is to explore and discover the unknown. From artifacts and treasures located deep in dungeons to strange glyphs or languages found covering ancient ruins. He longs for adventure and to be free of his constricting schedule. If it wasn't for his parent's proud smiles and expectant eyes, he would have long ago quit and lived normally. He lives a kilometer or so from the small village of Godric's Hollow in his family's manor. This manor has been in his family for generations and they are considered one of the founders of the village. This, and the small-town vibe, basically ensure Jordan cannot go anywhere in the village without being immediately noticed and called for pictures, autographs, or asked to meet people's sons or daughters. Jordan's saving grace is the huge plot of land that his family owns around their manor, and it is his one source of adventure and escape. It is in this large expanse of rolling hills, lush and verdant forests, and rocky crags that he finds a secret. A secret found just days before his 11th birthday. A secret that truly starts his life. No more dreaming of adventure, it is time for him to experience it and discover the mysteries of a strange new world and his family's legacy. The legend of Jordan Godric Leoren is about to begin.
