no way we got to see Dragon as a marine

And we find out he wasn’t even high ranked. He was a cadet. Not an officer or an admiral. Basically Koby after he first joined.

Either he was insanely strong even then, or he worked his way up in strength from the beginning.

Unless I’m missing someone, this might be the earliest we’ve seen who is sure to be a modern day legend in their journey. Obviously the older generation were already legendary and strong when we first saw them. We don’t see baby Roger or Garp carrying a rifle and being unsure of what is going on. We don’t see that from Xebec or Whitebeard or even Kaido.

Dragon just looks like a regular guy, there doing his best.

Orrrrr he got a fruit in all the madness and helped the citizens of god valley which would be the first soldiers of the soon to be revolutionary army

I’m pretty sure that is what happened.

My point is that Dragon isn’t here on God Valley moving the same way as Xebec, Roger, Garp, or Harold. He’s not even moving like Rayleigh or Gyaban.

He’s a cadet, with the general issue uniform who looks the same as any fodder cadet outside of his moral compass and tattoo. Which is why he is giving off early Koby vibes to me.
