Fair enough, just remember that there are many who have started off as starry-eyed dreamers and have been forced to give up their dreams due to the harshness of reality. Crocodile and Gecko Moriah are two examples. Beige did go to join Big Mom and plan to assassinate her, but he seems to be more of a planner from what we have seen and less of a risk-taker than Drake. Drake chose to leave the marines out of curiosity of what a life as a pirate was like and he fought against Scotch and a pacifista due to what seemed to be spur of the moment decisions at the time. I am not saying he is not planning something, but against the Yonko even the best plans go wrong. I am simply saying that it is possible that for now he is serving until he sees an opportunity present itself. No point in him risking his neck unless it is a spur of the moment decision in this case without at least making sure that he has a chance of not getting eaten. Same with Hawkins, he seems to be fighting on Kaido's side likely because his cards indicate better odds that way. If things change in their favor then these two might decide to ally with Luffy and Law. I know that Kid will fight with them if only to get back at Kaido.
