Monkey D. Garp is one of the most well-known characters in the series and very possibly the most loved Marine as well. Garp made his first appearance back at Water 7, where it was revealed that he is the grandfather of Monkey D. Luffy. Garp is a vice-admiral, but his power is much greater than that of a regular vice-admiral.

A lot of stuff is still unknown about Garp, and you can’t help but feel anxious. Garp is definitely an interesting character and we will very likely see him many more times before the series ends. Here are 10 things that you might have never known about Garp:

10 Pirate Alliance

Monkey D. Garp is arguably the most powerful Marine to ever exist. Garp was given the epithet of “Hero of the Marines,” after the incident at God Valley. The God Valley Incident is something that is known to very few people, it has a huge significance in the history of One Piece. In the recent chapters, Sengoku revealed that in order to beat the infamous Rocks Pirates, the Marines (led by Garp) allied with the Roger Pirates. The alliance was powerful enough to take down the notorious Rocks Pirates and end their domination.

9 Member of Infamous Family

Monkey D. Garp might be a Marine, but his family is filled with dangerous criminals. Garp is the father of Monkey D. Dragon and the grandfather of Monkey D. Luffy. Monkey D. Dragon is the most wanted man in the world. He is the leader of the Revolutionary Army and is leading a rebellion against the World Government. Luffy is the son of Dragon and he is on way to become the Pirate King. It’s incredible when you realize that Garp is actually from the same family as two of the most wanted criminals in the world.

8 Mountain Breaking Fist

One Piece 10 Things You Never Knew About Monkey D Garp

At his prime, Garp was considered to be an equal match for any pirate. Garp is definitely among the strongest characters in the series. He is a top-tier character with insane strength. A huge testament to his strength is that Garp was able to crush mountains with his bare fists. This is no ordinary feat considering that Garp has no devil fruit powers to help him out. Another testament to his power is the Don Chinjao incident. Don Chinjao had a bounty of over 500 million and he was famed for his drill-esque head. However, it was a matter of extreme indifference to Garp, who simply flattened his head with just one strike.

7 Rivalry With Roger

One Piece 10 Things You Never Knew About Monkey D Garp

Garp is a unique Marine in several ways. One thing that immediately strikes your mind is his relationship with Gol D. Roger. Gol D. Roger was the first man to conquer the entire Grand Line. Roger and his crew became the most wanted group of pirates in the world. According to the Marines, Garp is said to be the only Marine who could rival Roger’s strength. Whether this is true or not remains to be seen as Oda hasn’t revealed any instance where it is shown that Roger and Garp were equals. It is only said that Garp managed to corner Roger several times, however, it should be noted that Roger was never caught. He just turned himself in.

6 No To Promotion

One Piece 10 Things You Never Knew About Monkey D Garp

Many One Piece fans were left confused to as why Garp is still a vice-admiral when he is known as “Hero of the Marines.” This was pretty confusing and the reason behind him declining the offers was only recently revealed. Garp wanted to remain a vice-admiral because he didn’t want to be under the direct control of the World Nobles of Mary Geoise. Garp has no intention of obeying the commands of the World Nobles. So, he rejected promotions to remain a vice-admiral. Garp also stated that he had enough authority as a vice-admiral to do whatever he wanted.

5 Golden Lion Shiki

Golden Lion Shiki is an infamous pirate, who was feared due to his strength. Shiki used to be a member of Rocks Pirate and when the crew was defeated at God Valley like all the other members, he left and started anew. Shiki became the captain of the Golden Lion Pirates. Shiki became a rival of Gol D. Roger and fought him many times.

After Roger turned himself in, Shiki was annoyed and so he went to Marineford. Shiki was only stopped by Sengoku and Garp, however, in the fight, Garp was seriously wounded by Shiki. This actually raises doubts over the claims of Garp being equal to Roger.

4 Portgas D. Ace

When Roger turned himself in, he had a meeting with a Garp. He told Garp that he was going to be a father. Garp was surprised to hear this and he was confused about why Roger was telling him about his child. Roger requested Garp to take care of his son, Portgas D. Ace. He told Garp that he would trust Garp like any other member of his crew. This was a hint to the God Valley Incident, where the two joined hands to take down Rocks D. Xebec.

2 Unique Laugh

Adding to Garp’s unique ideals, he also a unique way of laughing. Actually he has two types of laughs. While laughing Garp adds either “Wa” or “Bwa” before the haha part. Most characters in One Piece have only one laughter style, but Garp has two. He shares this distinction with Dracule Mihawk.

1 Theme

So, the final thing that One Piece fans should know about Garp is his theme. Garp has shown to have a dog-animal theme. He was shown to be wearing a dog mask and also his ship has a huge dog face on the front. It was revealed back at Water 7. In the end, I’d just like to say Monkey D. Garp is another amazing character from One Piece and I hope we see more of him in the future.
