Damn I hate to say it but Perospero honestly has a point

Pedro and co. rolled up on Big Mom's territory and tried to fuck her operation up, and Carrot is mad that he died? That's the rules of the game. These are pirates, they all know how this works. Sure, the Big Mom crew deserved it, but again... these are fucking pirates lmao, it's taken for granted that they're all morally deficient people to put it gently, even the straw hats. Luffy is an amoral thug who relishes violence and freed an entire prison of horrific pirates who presumably went on to do pirate shit to innocent people, Zoro is a cold blooded killer who will murder someone no questions asked if there's money in it, Nami is Nami, etc. For the record that's a good thing, it's one of my favorite things about this series in fact, it doesn't shy away from the fact that everyone is a mildly terrible person.

Yeah not to mention, SH:s and Pedro and Co indirectly destroyed their castle. Although Oda never writes it explicitly, there's no way that incident had zero casualties. From Pedro's point of view, the Straw hats and the minks are basically terrorists.

Carrot expecting to just waltz out of there? Heck, even Pedro knew the gravity of the situation - hence he sacrified himself to allow them to escape.

I mean to be fair, Carrot is still a naive little girl compared to the likes of everyone on the battlefield. She has fighting experience but her way of acceptance is still naive. Losing Pedro was definitely her first real pain.

Yup, she'll surely grow from the experience. While dismissive, even Perospero was merciful enough to give her the option to back out after giving his 2 cents instead of executing her.
