In the current episode of One Piece, Garp shows what power he has. The vice admiral may be 78 years old, but he is in no way inferior to the young fighters. He uses his ultimate attack to raze part of a city to the ground.
Beware of spoilersbecause this article is about the status of episode 1114 (corresponds to manga chapter 1081).
How strong is Garp? Monkey D. Garp is Luffy’s grandfather and after the time jump he is already 78 years old. But he still has a lot to offer for his age. In manga chapter 1080 we were already able to see his Galaxy Impact attack.
In the manga, however, the attack was only represented by a large energy ball. With its use in the anime, it finally got the look we would have expected from a galaxy attack. The X-Account of newworldartur shows the gigantic attack:
Instead of a simple energy ball, we see Garp coming down to earth as a meteorite from space. His attack creates a gigantic energy wave that destroys the houses in the surrounding area.
The attack seems so exaggerated that he actually deserves a place among the strongest fighters without a devil fruit. Unfortunately, it is uncertain how Garp fared after the events on the island. But in his best days, he would definitely have made it to the top spots.

The SWORD unit must save Korby
What happens in episode 1114? One episode before For the Dear Student: The Fist of Vice Admiral Garp! was Korby had already been freed from the Blackbeard Pirates’ prison by Perona. The SWORD division of the Marines had set out to free the marine.
In the new episode, more members of the unit are introduced. One of them is Garp. He uses his Galaxy Impact to destroy part of the island where Korby was held captive. It is the base of the Blackbeard Pirates.
Let us know in the comments: Which version of Galaxy Impact did you like better? The one from the manga or the one from the anime?
Like Luffy, Garp belongs to a D. family. A syllable in the manga has now sparked the wildest speculations about the will of the D. You can find all families that have a D. in their name here: One Piece gives clues to a big mystery, keeps fans guessing
