@AdawgDaFAB: Yeah I don't see a way to beat him with no revives there (no robin, no vista, no max merry, no max special mihawk ...). The debuff protector and no 30 stam just make him so much harder.
If you rather use a few gems than go through an hour long fight, your options are:
- G3 captain, Nami, Helmeppo, Hina, Coby and MAX Nami friend: Use this team if you're confident with your perfects. Assuming you lock at least 2 INT orbs (and hit with the 3 INT units last) you'll need about 7 turns.
- Nami captain, Buggy, BP Chopper (free chopper for beating Drum Island), Coby and Hina (or Krieg): If you're too scared of using G3, this is a more forgiving option but it'll cost you about 4 extra turns.
You'll be able to attack him 6 times before dying for the 3nd time, so that's 3 gems. Afterwards, he'll start spamming 10k so you'll need to revive every turn or two (the G3 team might have over 10k HP).
So basically 3-4 gems with G3 (at the price of having to only hit perfects) or 7+ for Nami.
@Sasuke: Yeah the HP is high enough, you can stall correctly and get 5 turns, a couple meat orbs and you get your 6th turn.
