Monkey Pirates is the Monkey Buccaneer's path 2 tier 4 upgrade in Bloons TD 5. It unlocks the MOAB Takedown ability, which instantly grabs the strongest target up to a BFB (including Blastapopoulos and Dreadbloon due to an oversight on the multiplatform version of Bloons TD 5), making it untargetable and deals 20,000 damage to the target after a few seconds (always 3 in the Flash version). In the multiplatform version, if multiple Bloons have the same strong priority, it will target the first of those Bloons, while in the Flash version, it will target the closest. In the Flash version, it does not generate any cash from instakilled Bloons. It has a 60-second cooldown (55 seconds in the Flash version).
