I would have to disagree with both Roberts and Blackbeard as candidates for the "best pirate of all time". You can keep Captain's Kidd and "Calico Jack" Rackham and the all the others as well. In my mind the world's greatest pirate was none other than Henry Morgan. Though he would have prefered to be called a privateer. He had a colorful career and wound up knighted and then made the Lieutenant Governor of Jamaica. He died a wealthy man in Port Royal in 1688. Now that's the way to end your swashbuckling career!
