[Discussion] Crocodile vs Gladius

[Uzumaki Macho]

Not when he's dried out. His body would be too frail to move. All Croco has to do is slam him with his hook once.

Like I said above, Gladius can keep Croc at bay with some of his attacks.

Hardly. Super Arena takes some time to go off, so Crocodile could dry him out before the Rupture and smash his head in, stopping it. The Full Body thing, Crocodile could simply transform into sand and move away from the explosion. Crocodile ambushes him through the smoke, as Gladius would think his plan worked. Not only that, but Gladius failed to put down Bartolomeo. I doubt he could take down Crocodile, who could take at least one hit from Jozu.

I was referring to attacks like Punk Hair, Blackium, and Catapult Punk, they should be able to hold off Crocodile. You act like Gladius is just going to stand there and let Croc attack him. Bartolomeo only beat Gladius because Gladius was focusing on killing Robin and got distracted by Robin and Hakuba escaping Punk Super Arena.

Crocodile could simply transform into a sand cloud and move out of the way. Those attacks failed to put down Bartolomeo for good, and Crocodile could take a blow from Jozu, a top tier, which Gladius clearly is not. Gladius' attacks aren't gonna put down Crocodile for good before Crocodile whooshes over to him and robs him of his moisture. Gladius hasn't shown any considerable speed or maneuverablity feats.

Gladius can just use Blackium if Crocodile tries to rob him of his moisture.

Funny how you ignore the blows that came before that, as well as the fact that Crocodile was on his feet afterwards and still fighting after that. Pointless scan is pointless. Gladius still can't put down someone with one blow that Jozu couldn't put down in one blow.

Gladius uses Blackium, launching shrapnel. Crocodile gets pierced a little bit, remains alive and in fighting form. Gladius receives a Barchan to the face, he's a frail skeleton. Crocodile wins that clash.

Blackium creates an explosion as well so Croc gets pierced and blown back by the attack.

Crocodile swipes him with Barchan before the rupture goes off for Blackium to work.

When Gladius sees Croc coming, he can charge up Blackium and hit him right away when he comes within range.

And yet, when Gladius did that first part against Cavendish, the second part never happened.

He was just about to use it, but then got distracted by Barrier Bulls.

Gladius low diff the overrated Crocodile

Crocodile also has the option of slicing him in half from below using La Espada, the same attack that was able to strike Akainu. Gladius will probably go to blow up the ground, as he tried against Bartolomeo and Cabbage. Crocodile could simply turn into a sandstorm and fly above. As shown with Cabbage, Gladius doesn't even make sure the person was caught, he just assumes they were. Crocodile has the perfect opportunity here to sneak past using the ground and smoke as cover, and land a fatal hit on the overconfident Gladius

La Espada only hit Akainu because he was focused on killing Jinbe and Luffy, and it was dodged by Alabasta Luffy. Hakuba is a lot faster than Crocodile so I wouldn't be so sure that Crocodile can fly out of Pun Super Arena's range.

And Gladius will be focusing on Crocodile, as the Espada travels underground like with Akainu. And why are you bringing up Hakuba? Cavendish and Hakuba clearly have different levels of speed, and we saw Cavendish's speed being unable to avoid Punk Super Arena. Crocodile could also simply hover above the ground and the explosion.

 

[Bogard]

Crocodile is too slow for Gladius. He won't even hit him. Gladius could literally run circles around him without him even noticing, finishing him with his explosive moves

Where the speed feats at doe?

Like how he blitzed dressrosa speedsters(dwarves) or the thunder soldier with no difficulty?

The thunder soldier isn't even that fast, evading fodder is suddenly impressive? Come on now.

I didn't say evade, i said he easily blitzed them and those "fodders" have much better speed feats than Crocodile
