"So he's fuckin' dead? Well now I'm even less impressed by him. The wanker was hundreds of kilometers across an' he still got done in, couldn't have been too brilliant. What'd have in that big ol' head of his, bloody rocks?
Your da slew a dunderheid." YES HE IS MAD. His pride's been damaged here, that's probably his most vital organ. The outright declaration that he, in all his obvious size and grandeur and magnificence here, wasn't that intimidating, was like an arrow shot straight through it.
This would have been the point, in far more serious stories with far more professional dragons, where the great beast would lunge and make it's fatal flaw. Expose it's soft belly, open it's mouth wide and have a sword jammed into the roof of it's mouth.
And to be fair, that's kind of what happened!
Only instead of having a two hundred foot long dragon trying to snap it's jaws around him, there's suddenly a very, very angry pirate with some very intimidating dentistry swinging a huge, beringed fist right at his face instead. FUCK YOU.
