This is Page 5 of One Piece 1167, click or swipe the image to go to Page 6 of the manga. Harald is blaming his own kind, his own people because of ignorance. This is really important. To this day we create inner enemies for a country (just like harald and the "Evil giants") instead of seeing what the real issues are. No giant is the enemy of elbaph and harald just keep pushing on what he believes to be the right thing. Oda is really talking politics.

Almost feels like oden flashback when he
decides to do the dance. We all know how this is gonna turn out.
Tragic.
It's interesting how back in the drum arc, kneeling instead of fighting
recklessly to protect your people was one of the lesson luffy learned
from vivi. Here, we're shown how sometimes you actually gotta fight,
bowing and trying to get out of it won't help you in any way.
No hard rule in the world ultimately. Harold is the weakest strong
character in one piece. Submits willingly after his friend is killed by
the very government he so desperately wants to join. This to me isn’t a
satisfying sacrifice, he just sold out everyone dear to him. Admittedly
he probably doesn’t know the true colors of imu but it still sucks to
see.
It’s not a matter of strength. Harald’s story is a tragedy of irony.
Had he gone to see god valley, he’d have understood the full nature of
the world government.
As is, he’s using his strength to create what he thinks is the best
future for his people without the full knowledge.
