Yeah in the guild i think that nobody actually possesses higher magic power than Brandish, not even Laxus or Makarov. Although, maybe Erza could pull it off. You know, being connected to Irene, she could possibly have a lot of latent magic power. I think that Gildarts might as well have more mp than her, but most of these things are without any proof. That's why i hate op abilities, like matter, space, time manipulation. It's difficult for the writer to write a good battle, since almost always the way to counter op abilities turns out to be stupid and retarded.
