After they entered the castle grounds, Gibson noticed barrels of rum, hay dummies, and cannons being repaired by pirates. Unlike outside the castle gates, the pirates inside were doing some kind of chores instead of being drunk and lying on the sandy ground. There were at least fifty archers atop the castle walls, all glancing at them. If they were to make a single wrong move, hundreds of arrows would riddle their bodies in a blink of an eye. Even if the archers had bad aim, they had the advantage of height.
In addition to the archers, several groups of pirates sat in groups around campfires. These groups were the pirate version of patrolling soldiers.
While Gibson was counting the pirates, Tiberius looked at the holes and remnants of cannon blasts in the castle walls. He could guess how many siege battles these castle walls must have gone through before submitting to the pirates.
