Exegesis
The verse forms one compact narrative sentence centered on the subject ho de Iesous {ὁ δὲ Ἰησοῦς | ho dè Iē-soûs} and the main verb exepneusen {ἐξέπνευσεν | exépneusen} ‘expired’. The connective particle de links this climactic event with the preceding crucifixion narrative, marking either mild contrast or simple progression.
Root and etymology

In context — Mark 15:37
But Jesus , having let out a loud cry , expired.
