Tina walked up to Esdeath, frowning as she looked at the person in front of them.
If she wasn't mistaken, the person before them was that Marine General who had defected from the Marines for a Devil Fruit.
Becoming the Marine's biggest stain!
"Hahaha, it seems there are still people who recognize me!"
Gasparde let out an arrogant laugh, looking at the two women in front of him, then whistled, saying, "When did the Marines become so useless that they only recruit women?"
Two ice cones pierced his head.
But it caused no damage; instead, it directly passed through Gasparde's head.
A green, viscous substance appeared on his head, having directly dodged Esdeath's ice cones.
"Oh?"
Esdeath looked at this so-called Gasparde in surprise, then asked Tina beside her, "Tina, do you know him? What kind of Devil Fruit ability user is he?"
He looks a bit like a Paramecia and a bit like a Logia; it's a bit strange.
"Yes, he was once a disciple of Teacher Zephyr, and also a small genius in the Marines."
"Tsk, he's Teacher Zephyr's disciple?"
Esdeath glanced at this nominal senior brother, who had now become a pirate, and his reputation wasn't even that great.
She hadn't even heard of him; he was truly shaming Teacher Zephyr.
"That's right, for a Paramecia Jelly-Jelly Fruit user, he killed his comrades and defected from the Marines!"
"The Marines have been looking for him for so many years, and now they've found him here!"
Tina looked at Gasparde with disgust; she hated traitors more than anything else in her life!
"He's a Jelly-Jelly Fruit user?"
Hearing this, Esdeath finally remembered; wasn't this a Devil Fruit that existed in a certain movie version!
It was also the first time Luffy displayed a skill called 'Big Mouth Swallow,' biting off half of Gasparde's body in one go.
"Hahaha, I really like the Jelly-Jelly Fruit." He raised his hand, and his arm turned green and softened into a puddle of green jelly, with some excitement in his eyes.
"Don't you regret it?" Tina's eyes burned with anger; he killed his comrades and not only didn't regret it, but looked so excited!
"Regret what?"
"Betraying the Marines?"
"What's so good about the Marines? Getting that meager salary every month, fighting pirates to the death."
It seemed to stir up unpleasant memories for Gasparde, and his face twisted as he began to list the downsides of the Marines.
"You even get beaten and scolded by your superiors, and you have to work yourselves to death!"
"If you do anything even slightly wrong, both the World Government and the common people will unconditionally blame you!"
After saying this, Gasparde returned to normal, a familiar smile on his face as he continued to babble, "How good is it to be a pirate? If you're short on something, just go steal it!"
"As long as you have strength, everything will submit to you!"
"Look, who dares to blame me to my face!"
He raised both hands, looking as arrogant as possible; the Jelly-Jelly Fruit was his confidence!
"Such nonsense!"
A chill appeared beneath Esdeath's feet, slowly enveloping a hundred-meter radius, the freezing cold bone-chilling.
"What do you know!"
Watching as ice formed beneath Esdeath's feet with every step, approaching Gasparde step by step, Gasparde's hand turned green again.
"Jelly Impact!"
His entire arm transformed into a cone, charging straight at Esdeath!
"Shield!"
An ice shield formed, temporarily slowing the jelly's attack, then Esdeath lightly jumped, directly walking along the cone formed by the jelly.
"Naive!"
Seeing Esdeath's movement, the jelly cone instantly softened, losing its original shape.
"Huh?"
Esdeath found that she could move; her leather boots were stuck to the jelly, unable to budge!
She drew her long sword and slashed at the jelly beneath her feet, but the blade instantly stuck inside, equally unable to move.
"Hahaha, die!"
"Jelly Impact!"
His other arm transformed into a spear shape, instantly lengthening and thrusting towards Esdeath!
"Now let's see how you dodge this!"
Her feet couldn't move, and even her sword was stuck to the jelly; now she could only be a living target for the attack!
"Lady Esdeath!"
The worried Tina's hand immediately turned into a fence, and just as she was about to activate her ability, she heard Esdeath's voice stopping her.
"Don't interfere!"
Helpless, Tina could only stop, watching as the spear continued to thrust towards Esdeath.
"It has such great stickiness, but can jelly really compare to ice?"
She wiggled her feet, and with a slight exertion of force, both feet were pulled out, dodging the spear-like thrust of the transformed jelly, and where the jelly had been stuck, it had completely turned into shattered ice.
"Hmph!"
She let out a light snort; if this was all the strength he had, then she would be too disappointed.
After pulling out her blade, she continued to jog along the jelly spear, thin ice appearing beneath her feet with every step to protect herself from being stuck.
"Damn it!"
Gasparde cursed under his breath, immediately wanting to retract his ability.
However, he found that his movements had slowed down, and even every softened part of him was mixed with ice shards.
This caused his form changes to be delayed.
Seeing Esdeath about to reach his side, he could only whisper, "Soru!"
He vanished from his spot, reappearing not far away, and the jelly finally softened again, Gasparde breathing heavily.
He had been careless; he shouldn't have retracted the softened jelly!
"Oh? On one hand, you say you hate and despise the Marines, criticizing them from a moral high ground, and now you shamelessly use Marine techniques?"
Esdeath scoffed, looking at Gasparde; overly reliant on his Devil Fruit, how could such a person become a General at Marineford?
"Hahaha, as long as I can survive, can't I use any ability?"
He didn't care about Esdeath's scoffing; instead, he burst into laughter. He was no match for Esdeath now, but that didn't mean he couldn't run, did it?
"Lady Marine, we'll meet again!"
Turning around, Gasparde was about to leave; his subordinates were all dead, and he was now a lone commander.
He shouldn't have come to Shambles!
"Black Spear Array!"
Countless Black Spears formed from fences erupted from the ground, and even three or four Black Spears directly pierced his body.
Gasparde looked directly at the female Marine in front of him, not expecting her to also be a Devil Fruit user.
But she was clearly weaker than that other Marine!
"Jelly Impact"
He waved his hand, and a jelly spear appeared again.
"Black Spear!"
Spear against spear, a head-on clash!
Gasparde grinned and said, "Soften!"
The Black Spear directly broke through the jelly spear, piercing all the way to Gasparde's body, but the jelly wrapped around the Black Spear.
Spreading towards Tina's direction!
