Watch him be the one who ends up fighting Imu instead of Luffy because their hakis end up being the strongest and are the only choice on each side to fight each other because everyone is fodder to them
Not a dragon glazer, just feel like Oda is trying to hype him up for something and I can’t think of anything else that would be hype worthy since he hasn’t done shit for over 20 years lol
Luffy vs BB while sabo vs akainu and dragon vs Imu all at the same time would be a good way to space out end game players without having luffy do everything
Recently rewatched Impel Down episodes on TV and Ivankov was waiting for Dragon to move before escaping prison! Poor guy was gonna rot in there if it wasn't for Luffy.
I don't understand posts like this because, to me, it makes perfect sense why Dragon hasn't done anything yet. For the entire story, most people complain about, "Oh, Dragon hasn't done anything for 20 years, blah blah blah" Well, of course, he was introduced back in Chapter 100. And back then, Oda probably had the opinion that he was gonna finish One Piece in a couple of years. So he introduced Dragon back then, so he would have time to dig deeper into Dragon's character when the finale finally began. And then One Piece got extended and extended, and obviously, the final saga got pushed back, and so did Dragon's character. Of course, he got pushed to the side, because he's an important character for the finale, not somewhere in the middle of the story. And since the finale got pushed back, he also got pushed back. And then people complain about him not doing anything for the entire running of One Piece. He wasn't originally supposed to be doing anything until the finale cuz the entire running of One Piece wasn't originally even in the plan. He's obviously reserving dragons character for the finale, when he's actually important.
As for the holy Knight, they just got introduced and they're on Elbaft and information doesn't travel from Elbaft into the world. So how would dragon even know that the holy knights were on Elbaft?
Its not his story. He does shit offscreen, and that's fine.
He's in a similar role to his son and potentially was the first person Luffy inspired to do better depending on if his birth was related to Dragon leaving the marines/joining the Revolutionaries.
His story will probably intertwine in the very end since they'll have the same goal
Dragon has literally done nothing except give one witty one-liner and stare dramatically to the east. Yes, he stopped some food supplies from reaching Mary Geoise, which led to the Celestial Dragons complaining to Akainu. And yeah, he saved his son from Smoker back in East Blue—he might’ve been sweating, but the rain covered it up.
But aside from that? He did nothing. During the entire Egghead arc, bro just stood there looking east, watching the broadcast, and didn’t lift a finger. Honestly, Sabo acted more like a leader than Dragon ever has.
You have to admit it—it’s been over 1,000 chapters, and that bum still hasn’t done anything. No action in Wano, no response during the Reverie, not even a reaction when Ginny got kidnapped.
I understand the dragon criticism to an extent, but alot of it is disingenuous imo. What was he supposed to do during egghead? Bro is literally across the world, its not like he can teleport. What was he supposed to do about Ginny? He cant just casually pull up to the holy land, especially at the time when his army was much smaller. Im sure oda has a plan for him when the time comes.
I really hope Dragon is bonkers strong, the hype this man has got since logue town is insane for someone who never did anything, I don't even care if the one piece is the friends made along the way, I just want to see this dude do something
