Black Shark "Erl" grinned bitterly in anger. "An accident? My men saw only two of you escape to the island. Now, how many of you are there? No wonder the people I sent out have disappeared." With that, he swung the sword in his hand and charged at Gavin.

Gavin swiftly sidestepped, narrowly avoiding Black Shark "Erl's" sword as it crashed into a nearby wooden pillar, sending splinters flying. The Blood Dragon Guards quickly surrounded Black Shark "Erl," trapping him in the center.

Roaring in fury, Black Shark 'Erl' wildly swung his sword, attempting to break free from the encirclement.

Watching him struggle like a cornered beast, Gavin calmly ordered, "Knock him out. I want him alive."

Without hesitation, one of the Blood Dragon Guards raised his powerful arm and struck Black Shark "Erl" on the back of the neck with a thunderous blow. Erl's vision went black, and he lost consciousness, his body collapsing limply to the ground.

Gavin stepped forward, glancing at the unconscious Black Shark 'Erl.' "Take him away. We're moving forward," he instructed. The Blood Dragon Guards quickly acted, lifting Black Shark 'Erl's' body and following Gavin as they exited the room in an orderly manner.

Meanwhile, outside, the pirate camp had descended into chaos.

A patrol team of pirates heard the screams coming from the hall and hurriedly made their way toward the source, their expressions filled with dread.

At the entrance of the hall, the Blood Dragon Guards stationed outside stood like statues, exuding an intimidating aura.

As the pirates arrived, brandishing curved blades, the Blood Dragon Guards immediately sprang into action.

One pirate was the first to charge forward with his curved sword. The Blood Dragon Guard deftly dodged and struck a powerful punch to the pirate's abdomen. The pirate bent over in agony, and the Blood Dragon Guard swiftly took the pirate's sword, slashing it across his neck, causing blood to spurt out.

Seeing this, the remaining pirates shouted angrily and charged forward. The Blood Dragon Guards immediately met their attack, engaging in a fierce battle.

The sounds of metal clashing echoed through the night sky, and blood splattered, staining the ground.

The commotion from the brutal skirmish attracted more pirates, who arrived holding torches, lighting up the bloody battlefield. The newly arrived pirates shouted chaotic battle cries as they also joined the fray.

However, the Blood Dragon Guards were far stronger than the pirates had anticipated. Despite being outnumbered, the Blood Dragon Guards consistently held the upper hand, driving back and slaying wave after wave of pirates.

At that moment, Gavin arrived outside the hall. By now, over a hundred pirates had gathered, and more were continuously pouring in.

Without hesitation, Gavin drew his Flame Blade, and his sword instantly ignited with magical flames, standing out vividly in the night sky.

With the fiery sword in hand, Gavin swiftly charged at the pirates ahead, followed closely by his Blood Dragon Guards. The power of the flaming longsword was astonishing; each slash cleaved both pirates and their weapons in two.

Gavin also sent waves of blazing fire surging forward, setting dozens of pirates' clothes ablaze, who writhed in pain, screaming as they burned.

Gavin and his group of Blood Dragon Guards cut through the pirates like a hot knife through butter. Wherever they passed, blood sprayed, and flames soared into the sky as they swiftly made their way toward the port.

By the time they reached the port, some pirates were already attempting to board the ships. The Blood Dragon Guards quickly set up a defense, preventing the pirates from escaping.

After a brief but intense interception, most of the pirates failed to board, with only a few managing to climb aboard one of the longboats.

Gavin took the bow handed to him by a nearby Blood Dragon Guard and aimed it at the pirate longship.

A fire arrow suddenly appeared on the sturdy bow, and Gavin released it without hesitation. With a thunderous explosion, the side of the longship was torn open, and seawater rushed in violently, flooding the vessel.

The ship began to slowly tilt, and the pirates aboard scrambled to jump off and flee for their lives.

The pirates, witnessing Gavin's miraculous power, were filled with fear at the unknown force. Many of them, collapsed to their knees, muttering prayers as if begging for divine forgiveness.

Gavin looked coldly at the panicked pirates, his gaze sweeping over them.

At that moment, a Blood Dragon Guard holding Black Shark "Erl" approached and slapped him awake.

Seeing their Caption captured, the pirates grew even more terrified.

Still dazed from the slap, Black Shark "Erl" had no time to react before Gavin, in front of all the pirates, swiftly severed his head with a single strike.

The head of the black shark "Erl" rolled to the ground, blood splattering everywhere.

Then, Gavin, holding the blood-stained longsword, pointed it at all the pirates before him. Suddenly, the blade burst into intense flames once more.

The searing flames illuminated the pirates' terrified faces, and their eyes were filled with awe and fear of the unknown power. This horrifying scene overwhelmed many pirates, who could no longer withstand the pressure and fell to their knees.

Gavin's voice rang out, "Kneel before me, and from now on, obey my commands, and I will spare your lives. Otherwise, any who do not kneel shall meet their end today."

The pirates, already shaken by the supernatural displays, had no will to resist. With no further hesitation, they all knelt and lowered their heads, pledging their allegiance.

Two days later, in the now cleaned-up hall, Gavin was studying the recently obtained island map while listening to a report.

"My lord, the statistics are complete. Currently, there are 1,673 people on the island: 782 former pirates, 346 shipbuilding slaves, and the rest are indigenous people of the island and some pirates' families. There are 11 longships, 3 large sail warships, 2 ships under construction, and 5 longships awaiting repairs. Additionally, there is an enormous warship, the Black Shark, Under construction."

In the hall, Hassan was reporting to Gavin, who sat on the throne.

Hassan was the former captain of the "Golden Fleece" ship. After arriving on the island, he had been imprisoned by the pirates in the dungeon, enduring a life of darkness and torment, until one day Gavin, like a ray of light, freed him from the endless gloom of the prison and appointed him as the overseer of Shipbreaker Bay.

Upon regaining his freedom, Hassan learned of Gavin's deeds on the island. He had heard how Gavin, using almost miraculous methods, killed Black Shark "Erl" and defeated and conquered the pirates of Shipbreaker Bay.

Hassan had also witnessed Gavin's magical abilities with his own eyes when he was on the ship before.

The strength and mystery of Gavin filled Hassan with deep admiration. He silently vowed to serve Gavin with all his heart and repay the life-saving grace and recognition he had received.

At this moment, Gavin was still focused on the island map in his hands and did not look up, instead asking, "How are the supplies being accounted for?"

"My lord, there is enough grain on the island to last everyone for a year. There is also a considerable stockpile of other supplies, as well as a large number of timber for shipbuilding. Furthermore, in Black Shark 'Erl's' treasure vault, we discovered a total of 230,000 gold dragons in gold and silver. There are also various smaller treasures, including jewellery, gemstones, pearls, dragon bones, and some other artifacts," Hassan respectfully reported.
