I agree that pirates are more free, but have to disagree on Arlolng vs Luffy

Arlong is a terotypical tyrant, terrorizing the townfolk and boasting how fantastic he is, untill he is defeated.

Now, why did Luffy fight Arlong? Because he wanted to save Nami, who was also "evil" in a way for being a thief. So, a "evil" person defeated an even more "evil" person to save yet another "evil" person. Of course Luffy had good intentions, of saving someone, but an even larger intntion of making Nami his navigaor on a pirate crew, which is a crime itself. So Lufy did a good deed, to preform an overall bad one?

But still, Luffy can't be see as "evil" as the WG would view him for the above^

Because he does things for civilians and others that are seen by us readers as "good".
