But where does it say that garp didnt fight roger at his "strongest" and whitebeard did?, iirc when roger came back from raftel, he was drinking sake with whitebeard, so...they must have been on "alright" terms.
It doesn't have to say that. Look at the other facts and think for a minute. Put all the pieces together and don't just use a single one because it suits your arguement. That's wrong.
My point is that you keep saying that prime garp fought roger before his prime, but you have NO PROOF...there is no room for assumptions, the manga states it....
- You say Garp and prime Roger were equals which is incorrect. Manga states Roger only had one equal, Whitebeard.
Ok, that might not be good enough for you for whatever reason.
- After Roger's death, Garp did not become the strongest man in the world. Whitebeard did and he was equally as strong as Roger.
Ok, perhaps you're still not convinced for whatever reason.
- Whitebeard without a doubt lost more power than Garp over the years, yet he was still stronger than him.
Ok, now you must definitely be 100% convinced otherwise I don't know what the hell is going on.
Why is that? Because Whitebeard in his prime was stronger than Garp by a noticable amount. Take Luffy and Law for example. They are more or less on par. Would they still remain like that if one of them lost more power than the other? No, of course not. Thus, Garp was behind Roger by a noticable amount.
If me and you fight each other multiple times and we both nearly kill each other each time....it means that the gap in power is closer than you think.
Yeah, it would mean the gap between the two of us is
extremely small, that if either of us are not as strong as we were when we starting fighting and the other one was, that would no longer be the case.
