[break][break]
The slave trade existed as a show of wealth and power, though most only wished for the appearance of such, spending their life savings on unique specimens to add to their collection. Rather than a prize of self-accomplishment, it was the source of comparison in the lives of the rich. A member of the Longleg tribe went for a standard of 700,000 Belli on the black market. This was the higher end of the slave trade, but slaves had to wonder if their entire life was really worth that little.
[break][break]
Sold at fifteen, he was an adult by most standards and assumed that his master would subjugate him to intense manual labor for the best years of his life. Instead, he was sold to a warlord and arms dealer in the criminal underworld. Before he was purchased, other slaves used to tell him horror stories of the life that awaited; how his master-to-be would torture him and force him to work till he passed out. That this sadistic ruler would lash him for speaking out of turn, humiliate him in front of the world and make the rest of his life a living hell. Instead, his master was a calm and calculating businessman who came from oppression and saw opportunity in the oppression of others. Beneath the nose of the World Government, he supplied everyone from pirates to revolutionaries and even civilians under tyrannical rule.
[break][break]
He spoke to Alexander with respect, taught him the cruel and unforgiving rules of the world as well as the means to violate them. From his early enlistment in the black market, Alex was trained as an assassin and enforcer of the "Founder's Club" which represented a republic of key figures in the underworld from Drug Lords, to War Lords and Slave Traders. While he had assumed the worst, he was given the opportunity of freedom and meritocracy within an illegitimate business. Not only that but the chance to rebel against the world authority that overlooked suffering for the sake of wealth and power.
[break][break]
By the time their planet had passed through twenty-one cycles, Alexander had climbed the ranks and was now serving as one of the right-hands of the true Mr. Grimm—the chairman of the Founder's Club. He saw promise in Alex, but he also saw a blank slate and a chance to mold a young mind in his image. Mr. Grimm treated him like a father; he offered him the world at his fingertips in exchange for unquestioning loyalty. He spoiled him with riches, experiences unbefitting a slave and the rare opportunity of plunging teeth first into an exotic devil fruit. This was heaven on earth for a man who started with nothing.
[break][break]
In the end, his life was worth less than what Grimm paid. Alex was just another pawn, to be sacrificed for a "greater" goal. On the orders of his master, the young arms dealer was unknowingly involved in a conspiracy to overthrow the organization and take complete control. When the plans backfired, and the council learned of his actions, Mr. Grimm fell silent and played dumb to his leading role in the plot against them. As luck would have it, the council was already suspicious of Grimm, and a member of their investigative force stepped forth to expose the scandal—as he had witnessed the meetings between Mr. Grimm and Alexander.
[break][break]
The real Mr. Grimm disappeared, so to speak. While nobody knew what he looked like, he was a hugely influential figure in the underworld and the Founder's Club ordered Alexander to assume his identity for the sake of keeping his death a secret. The Founder's Club dispatched Alexander Grimm to a sect of the Revolutionary Army, where he would serve as an inside man and good favor of the Founders. On the surface, he was meant to advance the plans of the rebels, though he also supplied them with weapons, striking every opportunity to build on their relationship with the arms dealers and create profit for his bosses. He is known only as Asgard amongst the Revolutionary Army
