Early muzzle-loading firearms required the user to carry all the gunpowder they’d need themselves loose in a simple container like a powder horn. With early-modern storage methods being considerably less reliable than modern techniques, you needed to be really careful to not let the gunpowder get rain on or submerged since that’d make it pretty useless.

So, keeping your powder dry means being ready for action.

Have you played Assassin’s Creed: Freedom Cry? It’s not a perfect fit but you do get to hunt down slavers and slave ships.

(Edit: one way would be to) Provide funding and power to the IRS so they can chase after big fish. Turns out, the IRS has [a really good return on investment] (https://www.cbo.gov/publication/57444), so giving them the power they need to close loopholes and track down corporate tax evasion would be a boon to the nation’s coffers.
