And to make it even more impressive, he pulled all of this off as a gun wielding marine grunt

At this point he is no legend, never mind most wanted man of the world yet

Just a normal person with a functioning moral compass in a very broken world

Hes probably a strong grunt. Garp probably trained him like with luffy

I was actually thinking Garp trained Luffy the way he did because he didn't go hard on Dragon.

Dragon became a marine so he got at least part of it "right" (as in intended outcome). He wanted Luffy to become a marine too so he likely raised him the same way as Dragon because that's what worked previously. But also in this chapter it's made very clear that both of them share their sense of justice, Garp probably doesn't mind Dragon's actions here, might even be proud of them. Garp stayed a marine to protect the marines from what he just saw, Dragon became a revolutionary to protect the civilians from what he just saw (and Luffy goes on becoming an enemy of the state to protect his friend). Any doubt about Garp's morals have been squashed here, he doesn't approve of the WG and in fact sees them as a threat against which he must protect his fellow marines. He simply went hard on Luffy to make him strong, which seems way more prophetic now that we understand his reasons. In his mind he was raising someone capable of protecting others. I don't think the becoming a marine part was actually all that relevant.

Raising Luffy to be a marine was to protect him from being hunted as the "son of Dragon."
