By the way what i am talking about is on chapter 530 page 6

Actually, the fact that killing him would do more harm than good is a form of influence ("sway"). As you have said many times, this is an organization that will hunt down and kill anyone related to those they consider major criminals. Considering that they have never killed Garp, despite his massive connections to the very elite of the pirate/revolutionary world, means that Garp has a major sway in the Marines, the world (public opinion supports him), and even the WG.
I'm not sure why you are arguing this point. Anyone who has the military history that Garp does would have influence in the world. That does not mean he controls anything of importance (he was tasked, way back in the beginning with bringing the nobody Morgan to a prison - I can't think of a lower task than that for a Vice-Admiral to do), but rather his name recognition is so great that people listen to his words, even if they do not necessarily follow his advice.
