Hoof of The Soaring Dragon

After receiving a beating for my hysterical laughter I was approached by the slave trader who originally got me out of my cell. He guided me through the hall to an extravagant door which I assumed was the door to the main event. He entered first and some guards came from behind me and unlocked my chains. From behind the door I heard a voice:

"To start the auction off, we have a very strong specimen. Just at 10 years old, he has the power of 15 adult humans. Additionally he ate the hone hone no mi(bone bone fruit) and became a bone human. The first bid starts at 100 million berries"

The slave trader said, as I was pushed to the stage. Looking around I could see the Celestial Dragons dressed in their unusual astronaut attire. I scowled at the crowd. I realised after getting whipped that I wasn't free yet and the world nobles aren't the best slave owners. I had two options from now on: try to escape myself or wait for the arrival of Fishertiger. The second option was logically the best but I didn't know if Fishertiger is already dead, maybe I was sent to the world of One Piece after Fishertiger's raid on the Holy Land.

Suddenly the room erupted in shouts

"150 million"

"200"

"400"

"Do I see a 500 million?" the auction leader asked

"1 billion" a female voice said

When I looked up my heart froze the person who bid that crazy amount was Saint Sharlia. From what I remembered she was sadistic and liked torturing slaves.

"Going once, going twice" the gravel hit the table "Sold for 1 billion berries!" the auction leader announced. I tried thinking of ways to get out of this situation, I don't want to be her slave. I was guided by some armed CP0 agents out of the luxurious auction room, and into a smaller room in which you could see Saint Sharlia. "Is this the strong human slave?" she asked the agents.

"Yes." the CP0 agents responded without any hint of emotion.

"Good! Bring him to my estate and brand him with the hoof of the soaring dragon."

With that said the agents dragged me away and put me in a cage which they covered with cloth and I could sense us moving. 30 minutes later I could feel us stop and my cage was uncovered. I was dragged around through the halls of what seemed like a prison with multiple cells. In the cells I could feel other slaves looking at me with pity.

The guards took me to a badly lit room where they strapped me to a bench with my face down. I knew what would happen but I couldn't ever be ready for the unbearable pain I felt on my back 5 seconds later. I could feel a burning sensation on my back, my skin being charred. After the burning rod has been lifted off my back my new burnt skin went in contact with the air around the room. My whole back was stinging I couldn't move even after being unstrapped. Why did I have to be sent to the world of One Piece as a slave?

I lost consciousness soon after and woke up in what seemed like a cell I could still feel my back burn. I couldn't do anything now. I need to think about what should I do next, I need to find a way to get stronger.

I found out that I have a devil fruit, the ability really has potential, I can create and manipulate my bones. I can test some of my abilities, but I think the cell is made of sea stone and it's making the use of my devil fruit hard. From what I tried I can grow bones through my skin and break them to use as weapons. I found out that my bones are more durable than normal ones. I need to not rely on my devil fruit too much. The main power I should perfect is haki. Right now I can't train haki as there aren't any concrete methods to train it.

Right now I can only train my body and devil fruit powers. For the next days I trained my body to the limit doing body weight exercises such as push-ups, sit-ups, pull-ups and squats. And as I rested for optimal muscle gain, I thought of ideas for my devil fruit. The first ability I developed is controling the density of the bone, you can make it lighter so you can move faster, or you can make heavier so you have higher durability. I have made another 2 abilities for offensive purposes: Bone Claw in which you create bones coming out of your knuckles and Bone Staff in which you make a bone staff out of the thick bones you create. You can also control the density of the bone weapons. The higher the density the harder is it to create and the heavier it is.

As I was resting from my rigourous work-out, an armed guard came and opened my cell.

"Get up, slave!" he said.

I stood up and he began to walk through the cell block. We walked for a while until I could see some light at the end of the hallway. After walking towards the light, I finally saw what was there.... an arena of sorts. I finally understood, I was going to fight for the amusement of the world nobles. Out of the other side of the arena a giant door was opening and out of it walked....
