What I ultimately got from this thorough and informative deep dive on Garp is this: Luffy is much stronger currently than the fandom wants to give him credit for. If the original admirals are comparable in strength, and Garp is essentially pirate king level, then so is Luffy. Luffy hit Kizaru so hard, that, while he could’ve continued, he just said “F this, that punched sucked. I wanna stay down for a bit longer”. I understand Kizaru is the least of the 3 original admirals and may have a considerable less amount of vitality, as he relies mostly on dodging, he is still an admiral. If Garp “The Fist” can punch an Admiral (Kuzan) and he gets up and fights him tit for tat, then we have a substantial power scaling moment here. Luffy’s fists are getting damn close to his Grandpa’s (if not past them). Luffy WAS stronger than Kaido. Luffy is the only one who could really hold off the Gorosei. He is one of the truly most powerful characters. Like current top 3 active pirates. I’m not sure why the fandom wants to act like our protagonist isn’t there yet, but I believe he is. It’s time to recognize that.

Awesome vid Zage, I agree, I think when all were in their Primes, Roger and Garp were pretty equal, with Whitebeard being slightly above them due to being called The World’s Strongest Man even in Rogers Era

@@Rell.from.hideout And what you said just mean what? You think a pirate and marine just sparring and stop to take a rest after fighting? Garp is hunting Roger. You think them fighting is not to the death? And them surviving each times is a testament of their equality. Roger sent Oden flying with kamusari just to say "hello", what do you think happens when a marine and pirate of their caliber clash.
@Interlink. BY the time Akainu killed Ace he was Drained, if Garp had actually attacked him, especially with conqueror's haki, it's very possible he could've defeated him
Whitebeard had to be "nerfed" by Akainu so that he had a chance. That's something we always forget. But Whitebeard took a Sword through his body before he even started to somewhat fight.
His feat of one shotting Don Chinjao cannot be understated because his strength was such that he just punched straight through a character with some of the strongest haki in the verse at his prime and squashed him.
Chinjao also had the hardest head in the world that could split continents. People just think cause of his lower bounty that he wasn’t all that but the way Garp dispatched of him and latter gained his title Garp the fist cause of flattening his head hypes him up further.
Both Garp and Kuzan were implied to be nerfed mentally but Garp also had a fatal stab wond for Shiryu (who was stated to be the strongest member of the crew except BB so take that how you will) and he absolutely outclassed kuzan as soon as Koby needed him. (It is made clear in the anime that kuzan wasn't off guard he just got out done)
Garp for sure is the strongest. He’s got nothing but haki. No weapons. No devil fruit. No fantasy genetics like Lunarian fishman or giant. No physical enhancements like cybernetics or biotech. Not even bare handed martial arts like 6 powers or fishman karate. He is literally just a bar brawler with insane athleticism and mastery of haki, yet he’s on par with people that use weapons and devil fruits on top of that. Narratively this might not be true but on paper power scaling wise he’s got to have the best haki and the best athletic stats to be top tier despite having such a small combat arsenal.
6:51 One thing though, I believe an old man can still match the strength of a young man through pure strength training; it’s recovery that the old man lacks. In One Piece, I believe when Luffy is in his 70s, if he ever lives that long, his 10 minutes of rest after Gear 4 will be closer to an hour, if not longer.
I feel like you could interpret that in the panel where kuzan says he lives his life the way he wants now is him fully locking in on the fight I agree he wasn’t at first though that’s just how I interpreted that cause also unlike kizaru where there is a power gap with vegapunk I don’t think kuzan can afford to hold back in a sustained confrontation with someone like garp and also garps statement is just what he thinks about kuzans position kuzan is actively arguing back at garp
Luffy said "don't fight him" to his crewmates after Sanji of all people was speedblitzed. His cannon throw surprised them again, the big chain ball surprised us all. He one shot Marco and left him with a scar ... He left a scar on a Phoenix ... Now you tell me that is not a testament to his strength ... Marco clashed with many, including Admirals, he was not left scarred by them. Sengoku couldn't predict until the last moment that Garp would let Luffy hit him. Garp said he would kill Akainu ... Sengoku with the full composure during the whole war ... Stopped everything to go and stop Garp. He wasn't afraid to face Shanks as well if needed, unlike Akainu and Kizaru for Benn Beckman. After the timeskip, he had some ups and downs in terms of strength, but his lessons, courage and unwavering are some of his traits that inspire trough all.
At the very beginning of the arc the Titanic Captains said they had to hold back to not destroy Hachinosu but that's always conveniently overlooked when discussing this fraud. Aokiji would destroy Garp if he was serious.
People seemed to have missed that part. Kuzan is the one questioning garp’s stance here not the other way around which would support Garp having more emotional distractions first protecting the young marines, deciding wether or not to potentially kill his old apprentice, heck even Garp risked his life to save Koby’s which weakened him. He was easily more compromised more than Aokiji who had nothing holding him back besides just not freezing beehive that was it.
That was 100% evidence that Garp was also kinda nerfed a bit but Garp also replies by saying "DON'T BE TIED DOWN BY THIS NONSENSE, I TAUGHT YOU TO LIVE IN THE MOMENT" before bashing him in the fucking head with Blue Hole and saying "LISTEN UP KUZAN, WAVERING IS A SIGN.... OF WEAKNESS!". It's clear that both Kuzan and Garp had things nerfing their ability to fight at 100%.
Hey thanks for your video!! Quick question. What’s the song that’s playing at 5:00 min, I’m trying to place it, I wanna say it’s from bleach but I can’t place it and it’s bothering me…lol
i think that comes from the hachinosu incident. he had those typical lightnings when using his punch. its not confirmed yet but everything points to it
@@Fantastisch36 you dont become a legend that could fight the strongest pirates around to a stand still and not have conquerors hell ill say he is even more of a beast than white beard who wields one of the strongest blades in existence
I think the strongest Marine in history is Kong. He likely ate the ancient Zoan King Kong fruit, and it's possible that Kong taught Garp the shockwave technique, which made Garp incredibly strong.
Garp should have taken some vice-admirals or admirals to the island. He should have taken Sengoku with him. Pretty sure Fujitora would have joined if Garp had asked him to. Hell, even Smoker too. Maybe Kizaru as well since Garp was going against pirates.
They can't fight an Emporer without permission, and I doubt Akainu would give them permission, especially to save a SWORD member, for which the marine has no obligation to save them.
@@BarcaAlmighty Yeah Akainu might not give permission but since when that has stopped Garp? He don't give a f. Pretty sure Sengoku and Fujitora would disobey too.
I don't see Roger turning himself to just any marine or without a fight. Even though Roger was sick. He will only turn himself to a worthy marine he respects. As pirates, respect is best earned by might. Everyone thinks that's Garp, but my money is Dragon. Gives a lot of reasons why Dragon quit being a marine and created the Revolutionary Army.
It's crazy that some people in the comments can't tell the difference between current power and former power, yes aokiji can defeat current garp and that's completely valid because current garp is still among the top fighters, but hands down garp from 20 years ago would destroy him and that's a fact considering that man clashed with roger countless times meaning he could fight whitebeard aswell. I'd argue give aokiji another 10 years and he would be terrifyingly close to prime garp and that is a fight i would have loved to see but will never happen sadly.
@NathanielMDwastaken garp is the one who most probably killed rocks. Plus even oda stated garp and sengoku were physically the strongest during the paramount war
I’d say during marineford garp was for sure stronger but after the time skip it’s not crazy to assume akainu got stronger especially from a haki bloom with his fight with kuzan.
Garp had no confirmation of conquerors haki on Hachinosu but to be honest him not having it goes against the story somewhat. His comment in marineford makes it seem as though the color of the supreme king can be inherited. That plus dueling with Roger to the death and Sengoku having it as well, it’s hard to imagine him not having it. Otherwise great video
@@odin.... yeah I’m with you. Entirely defeats the purpose of conquerors haki if armament can match it to that extent. But on the other hand Garp being busted with armament haki could make sense story wise. I still do think he’s a conqueror because it seems as though all signs point towards him being one but he didn’t knock any fodder out so can’t really say confirmed
@Tem2900 tbh the fodders surviving made no sense. Even if that wasn't conquerors haki that explosion still blew up like a city block worth of area and obliterated tons of buildings. A normal human should not survive that.
Two characters I will always defend power wise from the old era are Garp & Rayleigh 😤. I keep telling folks Garp was up there with Roger & Whitebeard. If as stated they were equal (10/10) then I would give prime Garp a 9.5-9.9 💯. I had him and Rayleigh as top 5 during Roger era.. Personally I don't think another marine will ever reach his lvl. Koby will get strong but I feel will only surpass Garp possibly in ideology. Garp as we saw let his job win (which isn't wrong 😅) but i feel Koby will not let a job dictate what he does similar to Garp but better. I'm kinda happy Oda doesn't rush and show us old era characters or flashback fights so he can potentially develop more broken haki abilities 😅
@quilesboy you watching/reading the same thing lol garp washed him easy bb Pirates jumped him and still he successfully saved koby and got his crew safe
Garp is heavily disrespected in the community. I swear I be wondering if we are reading the same manga. Garp was obviously top 3 in his prime along with Gol D Roger and Newgate. All 3 are basically stated to be even since none of them ever soundly beat each other it was always a tie between the 3 of them.
Facts garp is that garp be soloing yonko crew and above yonko level and is a equal to roger and white beard and it stated and sengoku and shiki is a li bit weak since they under that
Garp in fact may of been the stronger of those guys, just based off his aura, the fact that he always sorta rides solo basically with fodder on his ship and has cornered roger and his crew, is considered to be a demon by pirates. Has pretty much the best physical haki feats without a doubt, doesn’t rely on any supreme grade blade or devil fruit. Defeated the rocks pirates with roger(meaning whitebeard got his ass whopped in this ordeal whether people want to admit it or not! alongside killing rocks) Garp literally also has the best old gen feats, he has no scars from his many legendary battles and he was carrying the Marines alongside sengoku against crazy stacked pirate crews and has remained active longer than roger, whitebeard or Rayleigh fighting and still chasing pirates till he met his demise due to plot convenience 😂
how does one “survive a fight to the death”. dude, if no one died it’s not a death match or “fight to the death”. They’re fighting and trying to kill each other, sure. But no one died, so it wasn’t to the death. I mean come on man use your brain
It is literally stated in the manga and by oda they could never actually kill each other despite then trying their hardest to how about you use your brain ffs
Aokiji is prime Garp with a busted Logia and Jinbe said that Kuzan was “entirely at his (Akainu’s) mercy” so at best Garp is 3rd strongest in the history of the Navy
@@isaiaguilar6982 Kuzan was mentally conflicted which canonically nerfs your fighting capability in One Piece. This has been stated many hundreds of chapters before Egghead was even a thing.
@Shadowwarrior996 the Battleship bag sequence only proves kuzan has the same physical strength as prime garp. They weren't using haki so garp still has far better haki and speed than kuzan. Garp was also severly nerfed in his fight with kuzan as he was getting attacked by an entire yonko crew, was stabbed through the stomach by shiryu mid fight, and had to split his focus between fighting kuzan and protecting koby and the others.
I think garp is definitely as strong as the admirals and mabe some of the yonko's but he just doesn't have the stamina which is his biggest issue and why he'd lose in a fight against most of the top teirs
@@zagessj I'm just going based on similar characters like Raleigh who says he was warn out after just fighting kizaru for a lil. Whitebeard also dramatically slowed down as the fight at marine ford dragged out
he isn't the strongest in the world Government. He was the strongest marine, when he was at his prime. But the strongest in the world government in Imu. Who is probably way stronger then garp or roger ever were.
If imu was that strong this long drawn out war would’ve been over already. Imu is strong but was trembling from sensing joyboy’s old ass haki from the past. Imu has to many crazy forces to not have won this struggle already. It simply just means he’s not as strong as people would proclaim or else he wouldn’t be trying to acquire more power in the mother flame and a lot more other things. Garp and sengoku fought off the monsterous pirates that imu or his faction couldn’t deal with. Imu and them have yet to even deal with dragon aswell someone who wants to take them down after all these years 😂
Also, prime Garp would beat and defeat both white beard and sengoku in the primes either separately or together he challenged Roger and rocks He was a second strongest rival of Roger. Newgate was number 3
Question : How we can know Garp is the strongest member of World Govt, if we never saw any Nobles (Knights, Gorosei, Garling and Ym) and maybe others we don't know for the moment ? Garp get rekt by Shiliew and Kuzan pretty easily, and he needed to be with Sengoku for take Shiki alone without his crew with all the Marines in their side and Shiki was able to destroy the half of the Map and Garp and Sengoku were injured as hell at the end of the Fight... So i dont think at prime they got Yonko lvls, or Shiki got the lvl of Roger but it will make no sense. Garp is admiral or between Admirals/Commanders and Yonkos lvl in his prime, if he was Yonko lvl at prime, he will just beat Shiki alone, and makes worse damage at Beehive.
Prime Roger was stated to have been cornered by Garp numerous times and Roger personally calls out Sengoku and Garp as people worth fighting during the Oden flashback. Also Old Garp put Shiryu down in one attack and he was blitzing Aokiji several times throughout their fight and inflicting visible damage to him. We've never even seen someone have that kind of commanding fighting against an Admiral until Luffy fought Kizaru and Shanks made Aramaki shit his pants.
@@Shoddragon It s just said Garp fought Roger few times, the Manga never said he did it when Roger was at Prime. Garp HIMSELF say about WB : It s was the only one who can keep it vs Roger, he doesn't said Shiki, Kaido, Mama or Garp himself a just said Newgate. Check the Manga bro
@@Shoddragon Check the Manga bro, Garp said himself only WB can keep a fight vs Roger, and we speak about the Prime Roger, not the Roger who we saw in Flashback of Oden, he was ill as fck, he split some blood.
@@Shoddragon Roger said too when he rekt Random Marines : Guys bring me Garp and Sengoku for we have some fun. "Some fun" Did u think Roger will say that if Garp could beat him ? I think not, Roger didn't wanted to be capture or make his crew in danger. If he said that, it s mean he could beat them easy too, Rayleigh old make flew away a Yonko Teach, the same guy who wanted to smoke Garp and Sengoku, but when he saw Old Rayleigh he flew. Everything is said.
even if this statement was legit that interview was like 12 years ago. It would sit alongside things like "eneru would have a 500,000,000 berri bounty" where the information is clearly out of date and not where Oda decided to take his series.
@@Shoddragon this example u gave is a false equivilence enels blue sea bounty being 500 million berri has nothing to do with the strength of akainu their are plenty of statements that already say that the 3 admirals are stronger than garp and we know objectively akainu is the strongest of the 3 because of the magma fruit ur dumb ashi ngl dont try to give insight on a topic u dont know nothing about
Na, Garp got exposed as a fraud vs Aokiji and half of BB's crew. Also, if you're including the entire world government and not just the navy, then Garp isn't even top 5, considering there's Imu plus the 5 elders.
sending Yonkou commanders flying with one punch and putting people like shiryu down with a single blow all the while blitzing AOkiji several times throughout their fight exposes Garp as a fraud? Yea okay.
now ofc there is the guy who trained both garp and sengoku he is prolly a monster but sinds in anime pupils tend to surpass masters,there is no way absolutely no way garp is not THE strongest in marine history he is currently 78 years old whitebeard died at 72 and garp is still kicking ass rolling up on a yonko crew by him self sure there where some with him but they cant handle yonko commanders yet, garp never used weapons just his fist showing his haki is second to none , im quite positive that if you take 2 dudes of the same haki level and one attacks with a fist and the other a swords that the sword guy does more dmg thats because it stacks up dmg haki merely cover what you already have all yonkos use multiple weapons ontop of their hakis and garp is rolling up on em everyday of the week and twice on sunday before sunset so my man could go to foosha village and beat the shit out of A S L, also dont forget every admiral has his unit and shit to go places when garp encountered ppl like roger ppl like whitebeard he did it essentially by themselves.. pre timeskip strawhats with no haki where whooping vice admirals ass left and right they do not at all equate to yonko commaders who can stall yonkos themselves and he was on equal footing with them thats all on him folks he did have one guy his right hand man who also trained koby hes never been shown in acting but to be garps right hand man he cant be no joke but its still 2 strong ppl vs a yonko crew full of monsters that insane no matter how you slice it , akainu may in the near future lose the little patient he has left and will start acting his whole things is absolute justice well sinds the paramount war he has been doing absolutely nothin i feel like he may even disobey his higher ups and go fight ppl thats how much he hates pirates and beliefs in his justice and sinds he is still very relevant in the story and oda quite likes the characters he might surpass garp but then koby will just top that right after so on and on garp is THE strongest has to he not only has the experience and fighting knowledge and iq but also absurd haki mastery he most definitely has a advanced version of every haki . Garp the fist/ Garp the HERO baby !!

Roger sent Oden flying with kamusari just to say "hello", what do you think happens when a marine and pirate of their caliber clash.
with what we’ve seen nobody has been able to fight against multiple admiral level powerhouses except garp
Great video!
Thank you so much for this video Zage. Keep up the amazing work!
Old garp is crazy strong. A lot of people tend to downplay him. The only old guy left to see is garling.
Exactly bruh. The amount of hate old garp gets is ridiculous
Because midkainu fans can't accept that garp would have clapped that him in marineford
@@ndibunwapeter9013 ong
@@ndibunwapeter9013 your delusional 😂
@Interlink. BY the time Akainu killed Ace he was Drained, if Garp had actually attacked him, especially with conqueror's haki, it's very possible he could've defeated him
Whitebeard had to be "nerfed" by Akainu so that he had a chance.
That's something we always forget. But Whitebeard took a Sword through his body before he even started to somewhat fight.
Well made video!!!! Garp is a legend!!!!
yo your vids are fye! keep it up king youll make it💯
4:50 based on his training on battle ships you can conclude that Garp PULVERIZED 8 mountains WITHOUT haki.
It’s possible but not probable considering he’s preparing himself to face Chinjao’s Haki.
@@zagessj his entire training is based on without haki
His feat of one shotting Don Chinjao cannot be understated because his strength was such that he just punched straight through a character with some of the strongest haki in the verse at his prime and squashed him.
Chinjao also had the hardest head in the world that could split continents. People just think cause of his lower bounty that he wasn’t all that but the way Garp dispatched of him and latter gained his title Garp the fist cause of flattening his head hypes him up further.
@avalac7412 yep people forget the bounty is threat level to the WG not power level
Both Garp and Kuzan were implied to be nerfed mentally but Garp also had a fatal stab wond for Shiryu (who was stated to be the strongest member of the crew except BB so take that how you will) and he absolutely outclassed kuzan as soon as Koby needed him. (It is made clear in the anime that kuzan wasn't off guard he just got out done)
Garp for sure is the strongest. He’s got nothing but haki. No weapons. No devil fruit. No fantasy genetics like Lunarian fishman or giant. No physical enhancements like cybernetics or biotech. Not even bare handed martial arts like 6 powers or fishman karate. He is literally just a bar brawler with insane athleticism and mastery of haki, yet he’s on par with people that use weapons and devil fruits on top of that. Narratively this might not be true but on paper power scaling wise he’s got to have the best haki and the best athletic stats to be top tier despite having such a small combat arsenal.

One thing though, I believe an old man can still match the strength of a young man through pure strength training; it’s recovery that the old man lacks.
In One Piece, I believe when Luffy is in his 70s, if he ever lives that long, his 10 minutes of rest after Gear 4 will be closer to an hour, if not longer.
In polls i tend to see Somehow Prime Garp, Sengoku, and Shiki below Shanks but Roger is unquestionably above.
I feel like you could interpret that in the panel where kuzan says he lives his life the way he wants now is him fully locking in on the fight I agree he wasn’t at first though that’s just how I interpreted that cause also unlike kizaru where there is a power gap with vegapunk I don’t think kuzan can afford to hold back in a sustained confrontation with someone like garp and also garps statement is just what he thinks about kuzans position kuzan is actively arguing back at garp
Garp is going to shock us on all out war. Imagine a galaxy impact with conquerors haki. He would look like luffy without a DF..
Luffy said "don't fight him" to his crewmates after Sanji of all people was speedblitzed.
His cannon throw surprised them again, the big chain ball surprised us all.
He one shot Marco and left him with a scar ... He left a scar on a Phoenix ... Now you tell me that is not a testament to his strength ... Marco clashed with many, including Admirals, he was not left scarred by them.
Sengoku couldn't predict until the last moment that Garp would let Luffy hit him.
Garp said he would kill Akainu ... Sengoku with the full composure during the whole war ... Stopped everything to go and stop Garp.
He wasn't afraid to face Shanks as well if needed, unlike Akainu and Kizaru for Benn Beckman.
After the timeskip, he had some ups and downs in terms of strength, but his lessons, courage and unwavering are some of his traits that inspire trough all.
prime garp is as strong as prime roger. he was his rival. and most rivals are equal when not having the plot armor.
glazing garp ill support it i like this guy
I think Luffy and Garp are descendants of the actual Joyboy and that it's just the Monkey D.'s thing to be absurdly powerful because of Joyboy.
This video is lowkey Koby gas👀
How so 👀
@@zagessjseems like Coby will surpass Garp
@@Tem2900 most likely
Garp Roger & Whitebeard were the strongest in their prime
if garps mentioned you alr know im finna be there
At the very beginning of the arc the Titanic Captains said they had to hold back to not destroy Hachinosu but that's always conveniently overlooked when discussing this fraud. Aokiji would destroy Garp if he was serious.
Aokiji glazers when they forget garp was nerfed to hell and back in this fight while aokiji had barely any
What about Whitebeard glaze next?
I already have a WB vid on the channel but I’ll probably update it soon
How was kuzan nurfed? lol he wasn't garp saying that was a reply to kuzan saying, "Can you kill your old student to save your new one"
People seemed to have missed that part. Kuzan is the one questioning garp’s stance here not the other way around which would support Garp having more emotional distractions first protecting the young marines, deciding wether or not to potentially kill his old apprentice, heck even Garp risked his life to save Koby’s which weakened him.
He was easily more compromised more than Aokiji who had nothing holding him back besides just not freezing beehive that was it.
That was 100% evidence that Garp was also kinda nerfed a bit but Garp also replies by saying "DON'T BE TIED DOWN BY THIS NONSENSE, I TAUGHT YOU TO LIVE IN THE MOMENT" before bashing him in the fucking head with Blue Hole and saying "LISTEN UP KUZAN, WAVERING IS A SIGN.... OF WEAKNESS!". It's clear that both Kuzan and Garp had things nerfing their ability to fight at 100%.
@@Shoddragon yep i wanna see a fight no blocks no nerfs on a deserted island

Got stuck trying to match background music with One piece… thank God I also watched Bleach.. 🙌🏼
Hey thanks for your video!! Quick question. What’s the song that’s playing at 5:00 min, I’m trying to place it, I wanna say it’s from bleach but I can’t place it and it’s bothering me…lol
Yeah it’s from Bleach. It’s called Soundscape to Ardor.
Garp ate kuzan's named attacks
Garp was probably also mentally nerfed against kuzan
Garp is a confirmed conqueror's haki user? I thought only Sengoku was the only one confirmed in the data books from among the navy
i think that comes from the hachinosu incident. he had those typical lightnings when using his punch.
its not confirmed yet but everything points to it
@@Fantastisch36 you dont become a legend that could fight the strongest pirates around to a stand still and not have conquerors hell ill say he is even more of a beast than white beard who wields one of the strongest blades in existence
I think the strongest Marine in history is Kong. He likely ate the ancient Zoan King Kong fruit, and it's possible that Kong taught Garp the shockwave technique, which made Garp incredibly strong.
Garp should have taken some vice-admirals or admirals to the island. He should have taken Sengoku with him. Pretty sure Fujitora would have joined if Garp had asked him to. Hell, even Smoker too. Maybe Kizaru as well since Garp was going against pirates.
They can't fight an Emporer without permission, and I doubt Akainu would give them permission, especially to save a SWORD member, for which the marine has no obligation to save them.
@@BarcaAlmighty Yeah Akainu might not give permission but since when that has stopped Garp? He don't give a f. Pretty sure Sengoku and Fujitora would disobey too.
@@ajmainfahim8569 Are we talking about Garp?! Your comments regarding Sengoku, Fujitora, and Kizaru, and my reply, those guys won't do it.
Indeed he is Zage if he became admiral as well as fleet admiral he could’ve saved his grandsons both of them in a what if that maybe you can do
He explained that you don't have freedom as an admiral. That's why Kizaru killed his friend, Kuzan quit, and Fujitora works in gray areas/gambles.
I don't see Roger turning himself to just any marine or without a fight. Even though Roger was sick. He will only turn himself to a worthy marine he respects. As pirates, respect is best earned by might. Everyone thinks that's Garp, but my money is Dragon. Gives a lot of reasons why Dragon quit being a marine and created the Revolutionary Army.
It's crazy that some people in the comments can't tell the difference between current power and former power, yes aokiji can defeat current garp and that's completely valid because current garp is still among the top fighters, but hands down garp from 20 years ago would destroy him and that's a fact considering that man clashed with roger countless times meaning he could fight whitebeard aswell. I'd argue give aokiji another 10 years and he would be terrifyingly close to prime garp and that is a fight i would have loved to see but will never happen sadly.
See the words is “can” yes he can he def can but i don’t think he would be leaving alive either
This was true before Sakazuki
He needs feats before we can saw for certain
@NathanielMDwastaken garp is the one who most probably killed rocks. Plus even oda stated garp and sengoku were physically the strongest during the paramount war
I’d say during marineford garp was for sure stronger but after the time skip it’s not crazy to assume akainu got stronger especially from a haki bloom with his fight with kuzan.
@@DeondreEwershell no akainu negs
@NathanielMDwastaken sengoku resigned himself. He wasn't forced by anyone to
Garp had no confirmation of conquerors haki on Hachinosu but to be honest him not having it goes against the story somewhat.
His comment in marineford makes it seem as though the color of the supreme king can be inherited. That plus dueling with Roger to the death and Sengoku having it as well, it’s hard to imagine him not having it. Otherwise great video
Was Galaxy impact not a Conquerors haki attack?
@@odin.... not to my knowledge. Wouldn’t be surprised if it was though
@Tem2900 what else would it have been though? I'm pretty sure Armament haki can't do allat.
@@odin.... yeah I’m with you. Entirely defeats the purpose of conquerors haki if armament can match it to that extent. But on the other hand Garp being busted with armament haki could make sense story wise.
I still do think he’s a conqueror because it seems as though all signs point towards him being one but he didn’t knock any fodder out so can’t really say confirmed
@Tem2900 tbh the fodders surviving made no sense. Even if that wasn't conquerors haki that explosion still blew up like a city block worth of area and obliterated tons of buildings. A normal human should not survive that.
Zage with another peak video(i haven't even watched it yet I'm pre glazing)
Yeeeessssss my fav character.
NO GLAZING BUT FAX W VID
Two characters I will always defend power wise from the old era are Garp & Rayleigh 😤. I keep telling folks Garp was up there with Roger & Whitebeard. If as stated they were equal (10/10) then I would give prime Garp a 9.5-9.9 💯. I had him and Rayleigh as top 5 during Roger era.. Personally I don't think another marine will ever reach his lvl. Koby will get strong but I feel will only surpass Garp possibly in ideology. Garp as we saw let his job win (which isn't wrong 😅) but i feel Koby will not let a job dictate what he does similar to Garp but better. I'm kinda happy Oda doesn't rush and show us old era characters or flashback fights so he can potentially develop more broken haki abilities 😅
Garp 🔛🔝
No weapon No Devil Fruit just pure Haki so yes he is the strongest in all One Piece
Kuzan bodied him. Garp's best feats are 2v1ing Roger offscreen and beating a Dressrosa G3 Luffy level Chinjao.
@quilesboy you watching/reading the same thing lol garp washed him easy bb Pirates jumped him and still he successfully saved koby and got his crew safe
W garp VID
Oda himself said Akainu is the strongest Marine in history and you made 17 minutes long video
Until he actually writes that and shows it his statement doesn’t matter yet cause garp canonically has far better feats than all of akainu combined
"akainu is the strongest marine ever"
Maybe
No akainu is not the strongest marine ever
Nuh uh, Akainu literally stated as the strongest marine in history. Definitely a Yonko glazer this one.
Incorrect. It’s a fake scan.
CORRECT
Garp is heavily disrespected in the community. I swear I be wondering if we are reading the same manga. Garp was obviously top 3 in his prime along with Gol D Roger and Newgate. All 3 are basically stated to be even since none of them ever soundly beat each other it was always a tie between the 3 of them.
Facts garp is that garp be soloing yonko crew and above yonko level and is a equal to roger and white beard and it stated and sengoku and shiki is a li bit weak since they under that
Garp in fact may of been the stronger of those guys, just based off his aura, the fact that he always sorta rides solo basically with fodder on his ship and has cornered roger and his crew, is considered to be a demon by pirates. Has pretty much the best physical haki feats without a doubt, doesn’t rely on any supreme grade blade or devil fruit.
Defeated the rocks pirates with roger(meaning whitebeard got his ass whopped in this ordeal whether people want to admit it or not! alongside killing rocks)
Garp literally also has the best old gen feats, he has no scars from his many legendary battles and he was carrying the Marines alongside sengoku against crazy stacked pirate crews and has remained active longer than roger, whitebeard or Rayleigh fighting and still chasing pirates till he met his demise due to plot convenience 😂
Akainu has been confirmed to be the strongest marine in history sadly 😞
He hasn’t. You’re probably thinking about fake scans.
how does one “survive a fight to the death”.
dude, if no one died it’s not a death match or “fight to the death”. They’re fighting and trying to kill each other, sure. But no one died, so it wasn’t to the death. I mean come on man use your brain
It is literally stated in the manga and by oda they could never actually kill each other despite then trying their hardest to how about you use your brain ffs
Maybe ? It's not maybe.
Anyone saying this and up to date with the manga is kidding then selfs.
Aokiji is prime Garp with a busted Logia and Jinbe said that Kuzan was “entirely at his (Akainu’s) mercy” so at best Garp is 3rd strongest in the history of the Navy
Aokiji isnt even able to pull off a galaxy impact on the same level as old man garp, much less prime garp. They're nowhere near the same level
Incorrect
@@zagessj that’s the whole point of the battleship bag sequence
@@isaiaguilar6982 Kuzan was mentally conflicted which canonically nerfs your fighting capability in One Piece. This has been stated many hundreds of chapters before Egghead was even a thing.
@Shadowwarrior996 the Battleship bag sequence only proves kuzan has the same physical strength as prime garp. They weren't using haki so garp still has far better haki and speed than kuzan. Garp was also severly nerfed in his fight with kuzan as he was getting attacked by an entire yonko crew, was stabbed through the stomach by shiryu mid fight, and had to split his focus between fighting kuzan and protecting koby and the others.
I think garp is definitely as strong as the admirals and mabe some of the yonko's but he just doesn't have the stamina which is his biggest issue and why he'd lose in a fight against most of the top teirs
He hasn’t displayed stamina issues. Just because he’s old doesn’t necessarily mean he has bad stamina.
@@zagessj I'm just going based on similar characters like Raleigh who says he was warn out after just fighting kizaru for a lil. Whitebeard also dramatically slowed down as the fight at marine ford dragged out
A lot of characters in onepiece can and do fight for 5-10 days without stoping and I just don't think garp could do that
Asskainu never finna reach these peaks
He has a chance don’t sleep
Yall sleeping and overhating
He will
he isn't the strongest in the world Government. He was the strongest marine, when he was at his prime. But the strongest in the world government in Imu. Who is probably way stronger then garp or roger ever were.
If imu was that strong this long drawn out war would’ve been over already. Imu is strong but was trembling from sensing joyboy’s old ass haki from the past. Imu has to many crazy forces to not have won this struggle already. It simply just means he’s not as strong as people would proclaim or else he wouldn’t be trying to acquire more power in the mother flame and a lot more other things.
Garp and sengoku fought off the monsterous pirates that imu or his faction couldn’t deal with. Imu and them have yet to even deal with dragon aswell someone who wants to take them down after all these years 😂
But prime akainu
Only time will tell
Also, prime Garp would beat and defeat both white beard and sengoku in the primes either separately or together he challenged Roger and rocks He was a second strongest rival of Roger. Newgate was number 3

@odin.... Guys it's literally stated in the data book "Akainu's the strongest marine in history." 😭😭😭
@TakenGTs debunked by sandman. The page that statement is from wasn't ever actually apart of the sbs.
First part is questionable and second part I agree with
Good video but Sengoku's existence unfortunately means this is inaccurate
Question : How we can know Garp is the strongest member of World Govt, if we never saw any Nobles (Knights, Gorosei, Garling and Ym) and maybe others we don't know for the moment ?
Garp get rekt by Shiliew and Kuzan pretty easily, and he needed to be with Sengoku for take Shiki alone without his crew with all the Marines in their side and Shiki was able to destroy the half of the Map and Garp and Sengoku were injured as hell at the end of the Fight... So i dont think at prime they got Yonko lvls, or Shiki got the lvl of Roger but it will make no sense.
Garp is admiral or between Admirals/Commanders and Yonkos lvl in his prime, if he was Yonko lvl at prime, he will just beat Shiki alone, and makes worse damage at Beehive.
Prime Roger was stated to have been cornered by Garp numerous times and Roger personally calls out Sengoku and Garp as people worth fighting during the Oden flashback. Also Old Garp put Shiryu down in one attack and he was blitzing Aokiji several times throughout their fight and inflicting visible damage to him. We've never even seen someone have that kind of commanding fighting against an Admiral until Luffy fought Kizaru and Shanks made Aramaki shit his pants.
@@Shoddragon It s just said Garp fought Roger few times, the Manga never said he did it when Roger was at Prime. Garp HIMSELF say about WB : It s was the only one who can keep it vs Roger, he doesn't said Shiki, Kaido, Mama or Garp himself a just said Newgate. Check the Manga bro
@@Shoddragon Check the Manga bro, Garp said himself only WB can keep a fight vs Roger, and we speak about the Prime Roger, not the Roger who we saw in Flashback of Oden, he was ill as fck, he split some blood.
@@Shoddragon Roger said too when he rekt Random Marines : Guys bring me Garp and Sengoku for we have some fun. "Some fun" Did u think Roger will say that if Garp could beat him ? I think not, Roger didn't wanted to be capture or make his crew in danger. If he said that, it s mean he could beat them easy too, Rayleigh old make flew away a Yonko Teach, the same guy who wanted to smoke Garp and Sengoku, but when he saw Old Rayleigh he flew. Everything is said.

even if this statement was legit that interview was like 12 years ago. It would sit alongside things like "eneru would have a 500,000,000 berri bounty" where the information is clearly out of date and not where Oda decided to take his series.
@@Shoddragon this example u gave is a false equivilence enels blue sea bounty being 500 million berri has nothing to do with the strength of akainu their are plenty of statements that already say that the 3 admirals are stronger than garp and we know objectively akainu is the strongest of the 3 because of the magma fruit ur dumb ashi ngl dont try to give insight on a topic u dont know nothing about
Na, Garp got exposed as a fraud vs Aokiji and half of BB's crew. Also, if you're including the entire world government and not just the navy, then Garp isn't even top 5, considering there's Imu plus the 5 elders.
sending Yonkou commanders flying with one punch and putting people like shiryu down with a single blow all the while blitzing AOkiji several times throughout their fight exposes Garp as a fraud? Yea okay.
@@Shoddragon
Whitebeard and Rogers would've done better. Even Sengoku would've done better.
The five elders are fodder💀 one of them got blitzed and lost an arm to atlas, who lucci no diffed
Wrong take on the Kuzan vs Garp fight. Do better
now ofc there is the guy who trained both garp and sengoku he is prolly a monster but sinds in anime pupils tend to surpass masters,there is no way absolutely no way garp is not THE strongest in marine history he is currently 78 years old whitebeard died at 72 and garp is still kicking ass rolling up on a yonko crew by him self sure there where some with him but they cant handle yonko commanders yet, garp never used weapons just his fist showing his haki is second to none , im quite positive that if you take 2 dudes of the same haki level and one attacks with a fist and the other a swords that the sword guy does more dmg thats because it stacks up dmg haki merely cover what you already have all yonkos use multiple weapons ontop of their hakis and garp is rolling up on em everyday of the week and twice on sunday before sunset so my man could go to foosha village and beat the shit out of A S L, also dont forget every admiral has his unit and shit to go places when garp encountered ppl like roger ppl like whitebeard he did it essentially by themselves.. pre timeskip strawhats with no haki where whooping vice admirals ass left and right they do not at all equate to yonko commaders who can stall yonkos themselves and he was on equal footing with them thats all on him folks he did have one guy his right hand man who also trained koby hes never been shown in acting but to be garps right hand man he cant be no joke but its still 2 strong ppl vs a yonko crew full of monsters that insane no matter how you slice it ,
akainu may in the near future lose the little patient he has left and will start acting his whole things is absolute justice well sinds the paramount war he has been doing absolutely nothin i feel like he may even disobey his higher ups and go fight ppl thats how much he hates pirates and beliefs in his justice and sinds he is still very relevant in the story and oda quite likes the characters he might surpass garp but then koby will just top that right after so on and on garp is THE strongest has to he not only has the experience and fighting knowledge and iq but also absurd haki mastery he most definitely has a advanced version of every haki . Garp the fist/ Garp the HERO baby !!
Imu and the Gorosei are right there 😅
