Has ability in buccaneering (3)

I believe the answer is:

can

'has ability' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'in buccaneering' is the wordplay.
'in' indicates a hidden word.
'CAN' is hidden in the letters of 'buccaneering'.

(Other definitions for can that I've seen before include "let go in the US" , "May" , "Possesses ability" , "has power" , "Metallic container" .)
