Eiichiro Oda has created unlikely connections between One Piece characters, just like the vendetta between Akainu and Monkey D. Dragon. Fans have long speculated as to why Akainu harbored such a strong grudge against Dragon. Is it just because he's a Marine? Or did something happen between the two?
As the manga progressed, Dragon's history was slowly revealed, and a connection between the two characters was established. One theory is that the two have not always been enemies, but circumstances drove them apart.
Chapter 1097 of One Piece revealed that Monkey D. Dragon has not always been a rebel. In fact, he used to serve the World Government and was part of the Marines. He served for a short time and learned weaponry there. However, he began to disagree with the government's idea of justice, and incidents such as the Ohara Buster Call and the execution of Gol D. Roger made him pursue his own destiny.
