Maide's idea was simple, but undeniably effective. History had proven time and again that gaining the people's hearts often meant success, a fact corroborated by many historical instances.
Of course, just talking about it wouldn't suffice; it all depended on how Maide would act. If one had a beautiful vision but poor execution, it would all be empty talk, and idealists usually lacked the means to fulfill their ideals.
Gao Yang was just a passerby in Somalia; he had no concerns whether it would get better or worse. He also believed that the Skull Gang wouldn't end up well, for Maide's alliance would certainly face backlash from the pirates, possibly even getting strangled in its cradle by a collusion of pirates and maritime security companies.
