Would be nice if the pirates became one with the sea - being able to summon an gigantic water wave or to draw powers from water attacks.
I like that idea. possibly it may be the re-animated spirit (soul, ghost, whatever) of the legendary pirate that when defeated by the Dark Magician, could have had his spirit torn from his body and sealed in the remains of the pirate legends ship (self assumption that the legend had a pirate ship). Centuries have passed and the seal imprisoning the pirate legends spirit has weakened enough for the legend break free. Since it would be a sort of spirit and having been in contact with the Dark Magicians seal for so long it could possibly have the new Dark element (which instead of a damage bonus on certain mobs could weaken monsters attacking power and defence or even curse them).
The storyline for the skills could see you travelling all over the maple world visiting the graves of your fallen comrades to commune with their restless spirits (this is turning into a heavy ghost type theme) learning the powerful skills and abilities they once knew to help return you to your former glory as the legendary Pirate Captain and to avenge their souls by defeating every trace of the Dark Magician from existance.
Few possible skill ideas.
-Summon the spirits of dead pirates to attack monsters arround you, that could also have a time based effect (Mix of BoT and Ninja ambush)
-Maybe raise a ghost ship from the dark depths to ram into monsters in front of you for massive damage ( like Latanicas boat attack)
It would be a darker sort of class whose story is more focused on hatred and revenge. All I can think of for now, I think it'd be a decent to play.
