Gasparde

General Gasparde (ガスパーデ将軍, Gasupāde-Shōgun) appears in One Piece Movie 4: Dead End Adventure. He is a former Marine turned pirate with a bounty of 95,000,000, mostly due to his betrayal of the World Government. Gasparde has eaten the Ame Ame no Mi (アメアメの実) giving him the abiltiy to turn any part of his body into candy syrup. It also allows him to make weapons on his own body from the parts turned to candy syrup as well as imitate the Gomu Gomu No Mi's power of elasticity.

He heads his own pirate crew and entered the Dead End Race after rigging it (apparently having won it the last few times), claiming it as a way to cure his boredom on the high seas. Like most villans in OP, he doesn't really think much of his crew refering to them as "underlings". And also scoffs at the idea of One Piece. In fact, as Luffy points out near the end of their fight, he basically a person using the word "pirate" in title only and nothing more. He also seem to have knowledge of Shanks as he recognized the straw hat on Luffy.

In the fight with Luffy near end of the movie, Sanji provided Luffy with bags of flour. This was the weakness that Luffy exploited in order to deal physical blows to Gasparde. He tried one last attack on Luffy by trying to impale him with a series of spikes emitted from his body. He failed, and was launched into a nearby cyclone by Luffy's Gomu Gomu no Bazooka (Gum Gum Double Barrel in the English dub), his fate afterward is unknown.

His name might be a reference to the pirate king Gasparilla a.k.a Jose Gaspar, he has a parade/festival/carnival/party in his name located in Tampa, Florida where he once attacked and used as a base.

Its is of note that acording to the recently revealed rank listings of the Marines, the rank of "Shōgun" does not exist in the One Piece Navy.
