Your God complex theory is very interesting, especially considering the makeup of his personality: his devil fruit which gives him the power to manipulate the people around him as if he were the master of puppets, combined with the literary influence of his character from Don Quixote who indulged himself in vast sums of power that which is not in his possesion, yet. Though the most interesting thing that I find about this is his psychological resemblance to Hollow Ichigo. When I first saw him in Bleach, compared to Ichigo, my initial thought was that he was a vicious, sadistic, impulsive, bloodthirty animal who relies purely on the instinctive aspect of existence. But then I saw him again when he was expressing his thoughts on his symbiotic relationship with Ichigo. In a nutshell, he explains that they're relationship is similar to that of a king and a horse and even though they both possess equal form, ability, and power, the true "king" is determined by his pure instinct to mercilessly crush and slaughter his opponents. With this I thought that this dude was an underlying genius or he is an unfathomable madman! He may be one, he may be both, he may be none of the above. Now going back to the Whitebeard War, I noticed that Doflamingo was never as lively before as he was on the battlefield. That made me realize, coupled with his ludicrous ideology I think that he truly exists not in a world of good or evil, but in a world ransacked with endless chaos. I believe that he looks to declare himself a god, or to be in possession of godly power, and stand atop the mountain of the world and look down as everything burns and returns to its primordial age of chaos. There is a disturbing air of the Batman's archnemesis the Joker surrounding him(maybe the clue to his alias) and his personal views on the world at large. This is just me thinking out loud but I am more than excited to see how Oda unfolds Doflamingo as a character as the series progresses. Whatever the case, he is a character to be wary of. For someone who looks so far down on the world government I would not put it past him to knock off some pretty powerful individuals, especially before they even anticipate him to be an enemy. Also with his Joker alias and him having dangerous subordinates like Vergo(who supposedly spent 15 years climbing up the Marine ranks to earn trust) and Caesar Clown(who has been in hiding biding his time creating mass murder weapons), I'd say he he is working towards some form of an extreme endgame, and just like the sea train, no matter what person or event that tries to hinder its progress, it will inevitably reach its predestined course.
