* ParentalAbandonment: Dragon's son, Luffy, isn't even aware he has a dad until Garp reveals to him during the Water 7-Enies lobby Arc. Being a revolutionary dedicated to the overthrowing of the World Government, forces him to cuts off his ties with his family so that they're not targeted. Iva notes that, when at his main base, Dragon would always stare towards the direction of East Blue, which would imply he's homesick. Iva also theorizes the news of Ace's execution would not only bring Whitebeard's attention, but Dragon as well, [[spoiler:though he turns out to be mistaken on Dragon's relation to Ace]].

** Crosses into [[FridgeBrilliance Fridge Heartwarming]] when one realizes that all the times he was ever seen smiling was related to Luffy.



** Played straight when it crosses into FridgeBrilliance: With the reveal that he felt sorrow in his decision to abandon Luffy, majority of the smiles he ever displayed are usually in relation to incidents revolving Luffy, like saving him in Loguetown and learning about his raid in Enies Lobby. Thus, it becomes rather sweet knowing that most of the times Dragon ever let out a genuine grin were because of the happiness and pride he feels for his son.

* ProperlyParanoid: [[spoiler:Kuma's flashback shows that he was curious about Dragon's relationship to Luffy after observing them visiting the Goa kingdom and Dragon keeping an eye on him from a distance. When he questioned Dragon about it, Dragon indirectly confirmed their relationship, but with a warning that Kuma should ''never'' talk about it ever again, otherwise he'd as good as sign Dragon's death warrant himself if the World Government ever found out he had a son. Given the same flashback showed that Kuma was coerced into a DealWithTheDevil with Saint Saturn to give up his humanity in exchange for securing a cure for his daughter Bonney, a fate that was the exact opposite of all he'd spent his life fighting for, it's clear that Dragon's extremely hands-off approach with involving himself in Luffy's life was the correct decision]].
