Question: is garp stronger than akainu?
Answer: Yes,at the time at Marineford, Garp could have killed Akainu. However,it would be extreamly close fight, harder than that between Akainu and Whitebeard. ... Garp was stated by Oda to be the strongest Marine at Marineford, and considering that Whitebeard was sick, I would say that he and Whitebeard were equal at that time.
