Our reasoning for defending the islands is because, although we are often defending Navy strongholds, losing ports in the Caribbean to one enemy for the sake of isolating another doesn't usually end well. Not to mention, Roger's campaign is dedicated to have a vicious grip over all presences in the Caribbean.
The only real source of a "good guy" in this game is the townsfolk (NPCs.) The British Navy (who are second in line of "goodness") are corrupt in their inner circles, the East India Trading Company is a monopolistic organization dedicated to infiltrate the governments of the Caribbean by exploiting trade, and Jolly Roger is bent on slaughtering any ideas of freedom. And as for pirates, although we fight these forces, you have to consider us evil ourselves. We are designed to kill, pillage, and destroy ships, that might just "house innocent Navy soldiers" - after all, not everybody can be brainwashed, aye?
The only reason the pirates are considered as "heroes" is because they preserve the idea of freedom in a free world. If you take away our views of freedom, then you take away the one film that covers piracy in praise.
Overall, the game needs less of a superhero feel, and more of a piratic feel.
