Matthew 16:18 says: "And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it."

However, if by 'pope' is meant the bishop of Rome, it is debatable whether Peter ever went to Rome. There is no evidence for it, and Clement of Rome, writing in 95 CE (1 Clement), seems to have been unaware of it. Paul found Peter in Jerusalem, where he was a pillar of the church, so perhaps Jesus intended Peter to be the Patriarch of Jerusalem.

Who wrote the Gospel of Jesus as St. Peter?

St. Peter was not the direct author of any Gospel. However, scholars think that Peter worked with Mark to produce Mark's gospel. Mark was not an eye-witness of Jesus, whereas Peter was. There is a so-called "Gospel of Peter", but it's not actually by Peter. Scholars generally agree that it was written in the 2nd half of the 2nd century, and is therefore pseudepigraphical (bearing the name of an author who did not actually compose the text - a fairly common and accepted practice in those days, not necessarily an attempt to deceive). It was rejected by the church fathers. For further info, see Wikipedia on 'Gospel of Peter'.
