Our Captain [ he offers politely ] has a different definition of what a pirate is meant to be. It happens to suit us just fine.
[ The most ridiculous and endearing thing about Luffy is his misguided definition of piracy. At Baratie, it didn't matter whether someone was a pirate, a Marine, or just a seafarer- everyone ate and no one fought. Sanji thought he knew well enough what a pirate was meant to be like until Luffy and the rest of the crew walked in and subverted all his previous expectations.
At the heart of it all, they're just five people out to try and reach for their dream. While they're all driven by something personal, Luffy is their captain and they'll get involved in whatever he decides is a worthy cause. ]
Perhaps that's what a pirate should be. To Luffy, it's about freedom and adventure.
