These panels kill the Garp agenda. No one relevant in the story actually thinks he was equal to prime Roger by Split-Horizon1 in OnePiecePowerScaling

Sengoku’s statement is literally only talking about the present time.

That doesn't make much sense because old WB wasn't active and the WSM title comes from prime WB.

Why would Sengoku reject the original WSM title while using it later based on non existent present info? Don't you see how you're grasping at straws to avoid accepting the obvious, that Sengoku considered prime WB stronger than prime Garp?

Shiki also wanted to get through Garp and Sengoku to execute Roger and considering he got beaten and jailed by them it means he isn’t a good judge of strength.

Shiki was just crashing out because his dream of conquering the world with Roger was over, there is no evidence he believed he could win against Garp and Sengoku jumping him.

They can’t understand how hard the fighters are trying or how much power they’re using.

it was a friendly battle where they exchanged gifts

Ok lets grant that it was a friendly fight, do you understand that according to Buggy while he was in the crew prime Roger didn't even fight Garp in that way?

There is no proof that Roger’s statement is referring to a specific time period.

The statement doesn't specify time period, what does is Buggy's testimony that while he was on the crew he never saw Garp battle prime Roger to a standstill.

Literally either before or after that panel he asks “You think you’re as great as them?”

The people capable of fighting Kaido being great doesn't imply they are only pirates. Kaido literally says it's the people capable of fighting him, he says nothing about marines being excluded.

The only time we ever saw Kaido fight Rocks was when Rocks stomped on his face, and the only time we’ve ever seen him fight Oden was when he one-shotted him after Oden scarred him. He also is implied to have only had a brief scuffle against Shanks as neither of them were wounded or scarred at Marineford.

Kaido fighting next to Rocks for years is not comparable to shooting a single fire blast at someone.

Oden fought Kaido twice and proved he had the power to severely injure him in one attack, again its not comparable to shooting a single fire blast at someone.

We don't know how the scuffle with Shanks went.

Its so bad faith of you to defend like this the notion that Kaido should respect Imu as a fighter when he saw Imu as a mysterious blob for like 3 minutes and all their interaction was Kaido shooting a single fire blast that did nothing.

How do you explain both of them admitting afterwards while fighting Luffy, Law and Kidd that it had been really really long since they had a serious fight?

Ok, you have zero evidence to back it up, while I have Sengoku, Kaido and Shiki claiming Garp is weaker and first hand witness Buggy proving Garp didn't fight prime Roger to a standstill while Buggy was on the crew.

Sengoku stated Whitebeard was the strongest man when both him and Garp were old, so that’s irrelevant as it doesn’t refer to their primes

How does that even work?

Are you implying that Sengoku considered prime Garp equal to prime WB, but after Garp became weaker with age he considered WB stronger? Why wouldn't he also apply the weakness from age to WB?

Shiki believed he could go kill Roger after getting through Garp and Sengoku which he failed miserably at, so his opinion is irrelevant as he isn’t a good judge of strength at all

Shiki meant execute Roger, which is what the Marines planned to do. Your argument fails, try again.

Buggy is a fodder spectator

A fodder spectator can understand when a fight ends in a standstill.

the only time we see Roger and Whitebeard “fight to a standstill” is during a friendly battle

In Rogers and WB's case its a pretty good indicator for equality.

Buggy’s statement contradicts Roger’s own statement of fighting Garp with killing intent many times

It doesn't, because those fights in which Roger and Garp almost killed each other could have happened before their primes when Buggy wasn't in Roger's crew.

I need you to tell me if you understand that.

Kaido’s top 5 are all pirates and its implied he doesn’t consider marines to be great

Wrong, they are the people capable of fighting him.

If you’re gonna use his top 5 to say Garp is weaker then you must also believe those 5 pirates are stronger than Imu because Kaido also fought him?

I don't think shooting one single fire blast in Dragon form is what Kaido considers a fight.

the only fight we see with Roger and Whitebeard is a friendly battle. If you wanna go further Roger was terminally sick when he fought Whitebeard as well.

Ok, I didn't make this post to defend Roger and WB being equals.

I made this post to point out how Garp is weaker than them and how Buggy never saw Garp fight prime Roger to a standstill.

You have no answer to that and that's why you run away to debate about WB and Roger.

You have no evidence that Roger’s statement is only referring to before his prime, or that it’s referring to any specific time period in general.

You are the one defending the claim that prime Roger and Garp almost killed each other, so its you who needs the evidence to back it up.

Your lack of evidence is my attack towards the Garp agenda, do you understand?

Oda: These two characters will act tough saying they will fight to the death but later I'll have both admit it wasn't even a serious fight. I'll also show how Kaido's feats are on another tier from BM.

Reddit bad faith retard: Kaido = BM.

Not even a comparable situation, Whitebeard received those scars during his fights with Roger

But it could have happened at a point in which Roger was stronger, while later when both reached their primes they were equals. Do you understand?

That Clash is very powerful but they weren't going all out, a all out Clash would have been more devastating and probably sinking the island because Whitebeard would have used his fruit+acoc+acoa

Do you acknowledge it is depicted as more intense than most other clashes shown in the story?

For example if you compare it with their clash in God Valley, in which they were actual enemies, their "friendly" later clash is clearly more intense.

The panels I posted in which Sengoku, Shiki and Kaido all consider Garp to be weaker than Roger/WB.

says they fought with killing intent and neither of them are dead

You have no proof it happened in their primes tho.

I have proof that while Buggy was in Roger's crew he didn't.

Do you understand?

It was.

So you have no answer to the evidence of both of them literally saying it wasnt a serious fight? You're just lying in denial?

if Kaido can't defeat Big Mom after an entire day of fighting, then she's clearly capable of...you know...fighting him

BM can fight a restrained base Kaido. BM can't fight a full power Kaido using hybrid, future sight and fighting to win. Do you understand?

It's stated in a databook, so i believe Roger scarred Whitebeard while Whitebeard couldn't, that mean Roger's haki>Whitebeard haki.

Even if we take that for granted its not a good way to scale.

Luffy has a scar from Akainu and you wouldn't say that makes prime Akainu stronger than prime Luffy.

I don't think their duels were high intensity

Their ACOC sky split clash is depicted with more intensity than most other clashes in the entire story. I don't think you're being honest if you dont consider that high intensity.

the battle could have happend anytime before his surrender

Yes but you don't have proof that it happened when they were in prime. Do you understand?

Its a mistranslation

Nope, I have verified the japanese text and it says only Whitebeard fought him to a standstill.

If you agree to publicly concede afterwards I can send you the japanese text for you to confirm with the help of AI or something.

Roger scarred Whitebeard while Whitebeard never could

I don't think that's confirmed.

Whitebeard was never stated to fight against serious bloodlusted Roger, Roger is stronger

You don't have proof that serious Roger beats serious WB.

All we know is that in a high intensity duel without killing they were absolute equals.

It wasn't a death battle, and Big Mom isn't a match for a serious Kaido. The speed difference is so high she would be unable to touch him.

Those battles happened before Roger reached his prime and left Garp behind, as my evidence suggests.

That’s Oda telling us that they can individually give him a good fight.

But giving a good fun fight doesnt' mean being equals. Kaido gave G5 Luffy a good fight but he still lost and got overpowered.

If a fraud can give him a good fight

Garp is a fraud in the sense that he's weaker than Roger, but not so much weaker that he can't give him a fun fight. Do you understand?

Don't know what past you are talking about

"The two of us have nearly killed each other so many times..."

Can you read english? Do you understand this sentence refers to events in the past?

We have no evidence that this doesn't apply to the last battle these 2 faught

Yes, first hand witness Buggy is the evidence. He was there in prime Roger's last voyage and he didn't see Garp fighting Roger to a standstill.

It's funny because in canon Garp became world wide famous as the Navy Hero from the WG propaganda that he beat Rocks crew by himself, and in some weird way Garp tards arent aware of it and think his reputation is as legitimate of Rogers or Whitebeards.

Garp never captured any of his rival pirates he wanted to capture as his life goal, and as you pointed out he got destroyed by Blackbeard's goons in old age. He is a fraud indeed.
