A friend once told me that the most powerful combat force in the Navy Headquarters is not the three generals, but Lieutenant General Garp. The reason is very simple, because there are three naval generals, but there is only one naval hero.

A friend once told me that the strongest combat power of the Navy Headquarters is not the three generals, but the Lieutenant General Garp . The reason is very simple, because there are three Navy Admirals , but there is only one Navy hero.

I think what he said makes sense. After all, Garp once had a glorious experience of defeating the unparalleled Rocks Pirates , and in many years of fighting with Roger, the Pirate King, Garp became more and more courageous as he fought.

And since the One Piece manga has been serialized, no one has ever seen Garp seriously fight, so Garp's combat effectiveness has always been a mystery.

Let’s talk about Blackbeard next. After Blackbeard became the Four Emperors, his behavior became very strange. On Daughter Island , Blackbeard left the Empress without tying up Mrs. Yazhai, but instead kidnapped Lieutenant General Kebi. This wave of operations is really unpredictable.

Some friends who believe in the conspiracy theory speculate that Blackbeard captured Kirby out of drunkenness. His real target is Garp. He first used Kirby to lure out Garp, then used Garp to draw out and Luffy to , and then catch them all in one fell swoop. This was Blackbeard's strategy.

I personally think this conjecture is a bit outrageous, because as of now, the goal of the Blackbeard group is to snatch the historical text of the road sign and the scarce fruit ability. Hunting the naval heroes is not in Blackbeard's plan, and killing Garp will not help Blackbeard become the Pirate King.

So I predict that if Garp goes to Blackbeard to ask for someone in person, Blackbeard will obediently let Kerby go, just like Blackbeard let go of empress in front of Rayleigh .

So, if Blackbeard and Garp really fight, who has a greater chance of winning?

I personally feel that Blackbeard is now in an all-powerful state. He easily defeated Ace back then, and now he can defeat Trafalgar Law without a single blow. Blackbeard's current strength has probably surpassed Kaido , and may even surpass Roger.

Therefore, even if Garp is at his peak, facing today's Blackbeard, the chance of winning is less than 50%. What's more, Garp is already old and frail. I think that once the two conflict, Garp must be determined to kill the thief and there is no way to save the day.

However, if we only look at it from a physical point of view, Garp is very restrained by Blackbeard. It is not an exaggeration to say that Garp is the character who restrains Blackbeard the most in One Piece. This natural suppression is not inferior to Luffy's restraint on Eneru.

Everyone now knows that Blackbeard's fighting method is to rely on his super resistance to resist the opponent's first wave of attacks, and then use the Dark Fruit's ability to neutralize the enemy, and then use Shock Fruit to completely defeat the enemy.

Therefore, Ace and Trafalgar Law, who relied too much on Devil Fruit abilities to fight, suffered a big loss. Moreover, Ace and Law's physical skills were very average, and their bodies were relatively thin. Ace, in particular, was defeated by Blackbeard with a few flat A's.

However, the naval hero Garp is completely different from Ace and Law.

It can be seen from the appearance of the character that Garp is a typical strength hero. He also likes close combat in his usual fighting style. Garp disdains those flashy fruit abilities, and he himself is determined not to eat any Devil Fruits.

Garp believes that he has personally proved that only domineering can lead to the king.

You can find that all of Blackbeard's skills are weakened in front of Garp, the Dark Fruit is almost useless, the Shock Fruit is as destructive as Garp's Iron Fist, and in terms of physical skills, Garp undoubtedly crushes Blackbeard.

Therefore, even if Garp is no longer at his peak, he has a low chance of winning against the final BOSS level character Blackbeard, but Garp's characteristics are too restrained for Blackbeard. If the two start a fight, Garp will definitely be enough to give Blackbeard a drink.
