Generally speaking, Japanese can be read multiple ways depending on certain factors, so words often have multiple meanings. It's a context thing in the end, and contextually speaking I'd imagine the dragon meaning fits this best, as he was considered to have a lot of potential by pretty much all of the other assassins. It sounds similar to the phrase "a sleeping lion," I'd say.
