When two space swordwomen clashes in battle, there can only be one victor

Gamora

As a Zehoberei, Gamora naturally possesses physical capabilities beyond that of an average human. This was enhanced further by Thanos having her altered with a cybernetic skeleton, ocular and respiratory implants that enhanced her durability, stamina, and senses with a regenerative healing factor. Thanos also had Gamora trained in numerous martial arts and weapons, though she prefers bladed weapons like swords.

Holo-Pearls: Pearl can create hard-light holograms of herself that are independent of their creator and serve as training dummies that act on a combat level setting.

Pearl gulped nervously as she stares outside the arena.

Earlier on, a boy and a giant dinosaur-like creature were killed by horde of smaller dinosaurs.

Pearl thought to herself.

Pearl: I sure hope I can make it through this.

The announcer steps up and he announces.

Announcer: Ladies and gentlemen, it's time for our next match! First up, we have Pearl of the Crystal Gems!

The door slides open and Pearl widens her eyes in shock as she heard the crowd cheering for her.

Pearl steps outside and she waves and she nervously smiles to the crowd.

Pearl: Uh...hi.

The announcer began announcing Pearl's opponent.

Announcer: And on my right, we have the daughter of Thanos herself! Gamora of the Guardians of the Galaxy!

There was a mixture of cheers and boos as a tall green woman steps out.

Pearl gulps nervously as she faces Gamora.

Gamora draws her sword and she got into a battle stance.

Pearl draws out her spear and she readies herself.

The announcer then announces the start of the match.

Announcer: Let the battle begin!

Gong!

The priest hits the gong, signalling the start of the match.

Gamora: Had enough?

Pearl coughs out and she said.

Pearl: I won't let you beat me!

Pearl began creating a holo-dummy of herself and she signals it to attack.

Both Pearl and her duplicate attacks Gamora by swinging their spears at her.

But Gamora deflects the blows with her sword before kicking them back.

Pearl fires a fireball at Gamora, causing her to scream in pain.

At the same time, the Pearl-dummy sprints forward and it swings it's spear at Gamora, knocking her down.

Gamora: You're next!

Gamora retracts a throwing knofe from inside her hilt and she throws it at Pearl.

Pearl dodges the projectile before launching another fireball at Gamora.

Gamora jumps over the fireball and both women continues to trade blows.

As Gamora swung her sword, Pearl began creating a cloud out of thin air, creating a smoke screen across the arena.

Gamora growls and she looks around.

Pearl charges forward with her spear ready.

But Gamora ducks and she thrusts her legs up, kicking Pearl in the stomach.

Gamora kicks the spear out of Pearl's arm and she slashes the Crystal Gem with her sword.

Pearl screams in pain as Gamora slashes her sword across her.

Gamora: You're done.

Pearl: I don't think so!

Without warning, Pearl throws one powerful punch into Gamora's face, sending her flying backwards.

As it turns out, Pearl has whipped out her sword and she used it to stab Gamora by the back.

As she drops Gamora down, Pearl whips out a battle axe and she swung it across Gamora's neck, instantly decapitating her.

Pearl gasps in horror upon realizing what she had done.

But as Gamora's head rolls across the floor, the announcer began announcing the winner.
