[Discussion] WHITEBEARD’S GURA PUNCH & GARP’S FIST PUNCH: Which is more destructive?

[sanninuto]

I just re-watched the first episode that WhiteBeard appears in, and it got me thinking about his Devil Friut being considered the strongest Devil Fruit in the Paramecia class. It mentions on the One Piece Wiki page that this particular Devil F could potentially destroy the world and is on par with Logia types, despite its user being vulnerable to physical attacks. Garp the Hero was powerful enough to go head-to-head with Roger Pirates. he also stopped Shiki at Marineford while everybody else panicked. Garp defeated and nearly killed off Don Chinjao, whose bounty was worth around 500,000,000 Beli in his prime and was said to be able to split a continent with a headbutt. He claimed to have crushed eight mountains during his training to face Chinjao.

I'd say Garp's fist, afawk Garp only uses his fist, for him to be on par with the likes of whitebeard his fist must be as strong (or nearly as strong) as WB's strongest attack, and iirc WB's punch isn't his strongest attack. Fist of love takes this for me.

not ruling out the fact that garps could have done same to marineford if he wanted to, i mean crushing mountains in place of sandbag, that's crazy!

There are theories that they didn't let Garp fight because he'd be too dangerous for Marineford.. He'd destroy Marineford if he'd fight.

Yeah ****ing right.

 

[MadaraReturns]

Yeah ****ing right.

Why else did the ADMIRALS fight and he not? Many hintings just like when that female vice admiral said that Garp'd just destroy their ship

Because he, like Sengoku, were to guard the scaffold.

Yeah, 2 strongest marines there.. Garp would've destroyed Marineford probably, Akainu even asked Whitebeard to stop destroying Marineford..

You do realize that was dry humor from Akainu and Whitebeard right. You really think Akainu was really just politely asking his enemy during a war to stop destroying his home?

There's no way Garp was the strongest Marine there. Akainu was. Garp didn't fight because if the scaffold was unprotected, then Sengoku wouldn't be doing his job right.

Okay man dry humor, he even said it again later and seemed more irritated, Akainu wasn't stronger than Sengoku and Garp.

When Byrnndi World returned he said there weren't much more people like
Garp, Roger and Sengoku, didn't even mention what's his name.
This confirms those three > All rest. Garp > WB, the reason Garp declined
admiral rank which would ascend him to fleet manager is because he'd be
forced to take out his enemies and we all know that isn't like him.

Any top tier could destroy Marineford with some effort. Hell even Luffy with a few KKG could flatten that sh!t
Garp was conflicted with himself so that's why he didn't do anything most of the time.. And it's not like the marines needed that much help either.

World is filler dawg.

By that logic that Vice Admiral would say the same to Sengoku at that time.. But she didnt.

 

[Hashirama Senjuu]

No one is stronger than Newgate.

Haki wasn't even thought of yet when whitebeard died. Imagine a younger whitebeard with haki. One hit GG ANYONE, besides maybe kaido

then i guess garp with the intention of killing or hurting Akainu was a 'joke'? no way
i don't think so, garp would have really hurt or probability killed Akainu if not for sengoku holding him down

Not true, Whitebeard used Haki against Aokiji with his weapon

How is it impossible for Garp to have been the strongest Marine at MF?

Whitebeard wanted to kill Akainu too but he just ended up losing half his face and Akainu was able to keep fighting for a long time afterwards.
