Both his lack of parenting and idiocy of loyalty to his job are ridiculous.
Garp tried to push this "why did you become a pirate bro" bullshit onto Ace when the reality is he would have been hunted down like and killed by the WG simply because of his name. What makes matters even worse is Ace was just a "regular" pirate, hes not a blackbeard nor is he a kidd who is mass murdering people.
It would be one thing if the WG were truly good or Garp was actually trying to change the org but neither of those things are true, Garp is well aware of the CDs and the misdeeds of the organization.
- That is not true. The World Government realized who he was and boosted his bounty higher than it should be and then gave him the offer to join as a Warlord. Ace denied that and chose to side with the biggest Mafia boss around.
- Yes and he is also well aware that 90%+ of the pirates of the world are criminals who raid/loot/and run crime syndicates...He while does not have the power to go against the World Government, he still believes it to better than being a pirate. Just as good man Luffy who loves people, is responsible for raiding Impel Down, and letting out henious criminals into the world that run major crime syndicates...like a mass murderer like Crocodile who's responsible for hundreds of deaths in Alabasta over the course of many years. Have you ever said anything against that??? Squardo attacked the Roger pirates, yet WB had him as one of his underling.
Good man Roger, is responsible for starting an age of piracy that brought vast criminals to the waters that were raiding and looting islands.
Good man Whitebeard, is responsible for starting a 2nd age of piracy, the aftermath of which was immideatly felt with pirates raiding and looting islands like Alabasta...
Are you holding them accountable for those things?? Or do they bear no responsibility?
We don't know what Garp's plans regarding the World Government itself are. We don't know how he became a marine. All we know is he keeps in touch with his son on a regular basis, his son that is standing against the World Government. For all we know he's simply waiting for Dragon to finish up what he needs to before the all out war..
The only "good guys" in this series are the RA. Literally everybody else has something fucked up.
