I'm sorry, what?
You can just say you've never played Monkey Island, it's not a problem ;D
Compared to the rest of the world at the Golden Age of Piracy, pirates were actually often on the better side.
Luffy in One Piece also wants to be a pirate, but seems to have no idea what pirates actually do. In Monkey Island, the worst thing a pirate might do is insult you. They fight with wit; the swords are just for aesthetics.
If you haven't played them, I highly recommend it. At least the originals. It's like playing a 90s cartoon. Like all the Lucasarts classics.
