He doesn't really have a role anymore. More like an insignificant streak of piss(Kudos if you get the reference).

Gray's basically a guy whom people just expect to go up against a Shield. Like Laxus, Mira and Kagura. Although he's far weaker, moronic and cowardly than them.

He'll most probably end up having an extremely forced and revolting battle against Invel, most probably alongside Lyon and Juvia (and maybe Meredy). During the farcical battle, Lyredy and Gruvia will most probably sail and, during the Narutoesque epilogue, we'll get a nauseating scene of the disgusting spawn of Gruvia.

TL;DR: Gray's role boils down to having a mindnumbingly boring battle, then partnering up with Juvia to manufacture babies at a faster pace than rabbits.
