They wanted to stop being pirates and, like people from the outside world, earn wealth through labor and work.

For the people of Briff Town, the doctrines were not their light—the Saintess was.
Thus came the question from the Lustful Divine Envoy.
"Will you stay on this island?"
Unfortunately, the Saintess was destined not to stay on this island.
