I am surprised you didn't recognise the bottom pic there as Guybrush Threepwood. And great answer by the way.

Well.. Stereotypes aside, Pirates.

Pirates have the Blunderbuss, Wheelock, and Flintlock pistols. Also including muskets. They have the Cutlass, a weapon used for close quarters. But lack education, and hygiene.

Ninja's, without stereotypes, are farmers trained militia to preform assassinations on oppressive leaders, and don't walk on water... Wearing a black jumpsuit during the day is going to make yourself obvious. They weild the Shrunken, and Katana. Or if not the case a Sickle, or an incredibly modified hoe.

Now, given the fact one is a night assassin, and the other is a privateering band of misfits in the day, I'd assume there is no "oh but the ninja kills the pirate at night" drama becuase this is a fight. And to fight they both have to have clear eye contact with the other, or know they are there.

Pirates, becuase a ninja cannot dodge a bullet like the f***king matrix. There is even a time difference from both. A Ninja would either be killed by the gun, or if he got close would have to try and use a long blade against a Cutlass, a blade specifically made to counter longer blades, and get in close quarters.

Modern day ninjas one could say are the Yakuza. And they certainly do use guns. Not sure if they ever wore black jumpsuits.
Modern day pirates do use guns and modern tech also. They usually raid cargo ships or engage in drug and people trafficking these days though.

The original post here didn't differentiate between the two or even mention which era of pirates and ninjas was up for discussion.

Pirates because Jack Sparrow. Yes I'm aware movie pirates aren't the same as real pirates. Calm down.

Just think about it though. He must of stank so badly. He was in disgusting dirty sea water half the time, getting caressed by freaky fish men that most likely smelled even worse. He would bring a new definition to the word salty. His smell would make a clean modern-day person cry.

He smells of sexy pirateness and that is all. How dare you even suggest he smells bad when he has cheekbones like that? Use your sense man!

Don't care,

Why post in topics where you don't care what the OP is?

That's ok, if Jack Sparrow doesn't wanna smell nice for us there's always Will Turner Savvy?

Pirate Ninjas.

I don't care about "Uh, it's not JUST time periods you know" I have my opinion on the golden ages of both occupations..
