Although the shore was bombarded by the people on the big ship, which caused casualties among several individuals, cheers erupted from the pirates onshore upon seeing the prospect of the ship sinking and its crew possibly perishing.
"Damn it, who knows where these savages came from, daring to ambush us. I refuse to believe we can't kill them all," a pirate cursed.
The injured were taken aside to heal, and the leader ordered some men to inspect the ship.
They found the ship charred, with no corpses visible—the cabin was destroyed with several large holes, signifying its inevitable sinking.
The leader instructed his men to secure the ship. A vessel of such quality could certainly be repurposed, especially its generator, which was the most valuable.
Pirates, after all, celebrated like victors with their drinking and feasting, but they also remained vigilant for potential attacks at sea.
