@Fragile Finger Also Garp hasn't turned blind eye to the message Government makes, he has turned blind eye more towards the things his family does, it's one of the reason Ace doesn't ask Garp to save him and neither does Sengoku and he was ready to throw it down with Akainu. He is there to protect people because sometimes that's the only place he could do it.

Leaving it meant leaving behind a huge chunk of people who were dependent on him.

I think Garp knew Dragon was going to cause a rebellion and that's one of the reason he let him go so easily.
