“Because the last time the law got its hands on a pirate of that stature, it yielded the following... anger, hostility, resentment, purges to combat it all that only resulted in amplifying it all, and a resistance movement that, since Captain Vane was hanged, has done nothing but grow strong enough to control almost every part of this island outside of Nassau. And you ask why I chose not to help start the cycle all over again?” - Max

BLACK SAILS MEME: 2 ladies - Eleanor Guthrie (2 of 2)

“This is Eleanor Guthrie, the trade boss of Nassau, the woman who lorded over a savage pirate kingdom as if it were a plaything. And without whom it cannot function. Imagine, sir, how London would react to the arrival of the queen of thieves. Imagine the spectacle of her trial. Imagine the celebrity that'll be heaped upon her captor.” - Captain Hornigold, S2E9

Billy must have made Vane recall his own discussion about Eleanor and power in 1x5. It was that discussion that made Vane actively seek out power for himself, starting with overthrowing Albinus and then seizing the fort from Hornigold. 

Billy makes Vane realize that all the power he has acquired will mean nothing if Nassau once again falls under English rule. And the only way to prevent that from happening is if all pirates work together. To save Nassau, old enemies must if not become friends at least become allies. And that’s why Flint must be rescued.
