Well my dear Bouldersan, you my friend have your work cut out for you.
To procure this many supplies we'll have to raid a great number of ships, or maybe just hit one of the nearby colonies and enslave them all to become an undead army to rule the world!!!!
Err...
my bad, thats not whats going to happen really.
::hushed whispers::
dammit Fred, shut up, that ISNT *wink wink* whats going to happen.
Err back to you my dear friend Bouldersan, Fred and I would be happy to accompany you on this journey to "procure" some........ commodities. yes.
If ye not be minding our company that is.

Bouldersan Ach. This list be gettin' rath'r long. I coul' be a while gettin' all o' this. Well, when all our pirates do is sit around admiring booty, smacking a** and putting down the rum all day, waddya expect. By god, we could be the most fearsome pirates around if we all weren't so lazy. ::hushed whispers:: damn straight Fred ::mew:: Spleens! yes! Spleens are the key to being feared! we shall take their spleens!!!

"Spleens? Well, that is one way to go about it. Though, if I might suggest something of a slightly different nature. Such as, taking ships a prize and leaving none but one man alive from each ship.
In the beginning, everyone will believe the one man to be a lunitic. After you've taken more ships than you can count (and being pirates, thats not many)... the survivors will begin to flood into the ports with stories of bloodshed and slaughter. Women will faint and children will cry. Mayors and Governors will wake from a dead sleep due to the nightmares... THAT, Mr. Whiskers, is how you become the most feared pirate throughout all the world. Trust me... I've done it.
Throughout all this, remember... it's not the act itself, it's the fear-factor... it's the gossip, that makes you a legend. Give them a story to tell and you'll benefit from it immensely. Raid a town and leave it in ruins. Take no Quarter. Once the story travels and is warped a tad' bit, it becomes a story of chaotic conquest. Your one town will become fifteen cities. The one village of people you killed and buried in quaint graves, becomes that of a great population that was cut down to nothing and left in a heaping mass of rotting corpses. It's called the "word-of-mouth" effect. Stories change as they are told. A man that tripped and sprained his ankle could be transformed into a man that fell off a cliff and died. Use the tool well and you'll find yourself with a reputation. Hopefully it's the one you want.
Oh, and remember this young friend...
Once the innocent are dead... that's when you take their spleens. It's called a trademark."
*Pats him on the shoulder and strolls off to his ship.*

This boy has obviously never heard of vengeance.
Leaving a man alive is all well and good, until you leave the wrong man alive. Then he spends the rest of his life trying to hunt you down for slaughtering all his friends.
But if you take their spleens, it weakens them. It makes them into mere shadows of the people they used to be.
Know this, the way to be feared isnt through death. Any fool with a sword, some strength and a few skills can butcher mercilessly.
But to truly become legend, to raise piracy to an artform, you must debilitate and leave as many alive as possible (spleenless, of course). And when the cities start filling with your victims, when you cannot look down a street without seeing one marked by you, that my friend, is when you become legend.
::hushed whispers::
And Fred also says that the last thirteen mayors and governors he met woke up without spleens. Screw that nightmare crap.
Go for the spleens!
