User blog comment:Blackendedsoul/An Ideal Pirate VS an Unruly Subordinate/@comment-4618942-20120213220241

1. there is no such thing as an ideal pirate. Pirates are people who just do whatever the hell they want on the seas and dont care about nothing else and it is all up to the government or the public to say whether they are a pirate or no. For example look at g5 the only reason they arent considered pirates is because they are under a marine flag and obey orders from their superiors once in a while.

2. Ace really was an unruly, obnoxious, compassionate and loyal guy and saying that i dont that he should have been the type to follow someone else i mean he has most of luffys characteristics both good and bad like loving to fight strong guys and that annoying selfishness and he is also way smarter and more polite than luffy making him an ideal captain though he is an egotistical bastard who relies on his self more than anyone else. Saying all that i believe that because of his leadership qualities joining whitebeards crew was the first step to him dying. Also Soul you are mostly dead right about ace
