History

Gutt has presumably been a pirate for some time (evident by the amount of "Bounty" the pirates had collected), and recruited all the members of his crew by saving them from bad situations as Gupta and Squint both state Gutt rescued them all, and Shira expressing her loyalty, and that they owe their lives to the captain.

One day, Silas spotted an iceberg bearing four animals and promptly alerted Gutt. They hooked the iceberg to their ship where Gutt pretended to be a good Samaritan before revealing himself and his crew to be pirates claiming the iceberg for themselves. They captured the four animals, Manny, Diego, Sid, and Sid's Granny, and sang a song called "Master of the seas".

Gutt wanted them, Manny in particular, to join his crew but they flat-out refused. Seeing this as an insult,

Gutt almost had Sid and Granny walk the plank. But due to the intervention of Manny and Diego, the sh ip was destroyed, losing all of Gutt's bounty in the process, enraging him, while the pirates were separated from Shira. Flynn was the only one who wanted to search for her, but Gutt didn't care and commanded them to sail off without her.

They went to an island where they enslaved the resident hyraxes to make a new ship for them an

d take their food.

The next day, Shira turned up. Gutt acted relieved to see her when she revealed Manny and his friends were on the island. Gutt was furious to learn Shira did not kill Manny and unfairly reprimanded her before relieving her of her rank as First Mate and giving the position to Squint.

They heard the sound of a horn and saw the other hyraxes had come to do battle, backed up apparently by Manny. Gutt led his crew in a charge only to realize it was a diversion as the hyraxes quickly escaped and the "Manny" they saw was a decoy. Gutt noticed the real Manny, as well as Diego, Sid, and Granny, making off with the ship.

The Sub-Zero Heroes escaped on the ship, thanks to intervention by Shira, but Gutt managed to promptly make another ship by dislodging an iceberg and summoned his narwhals to propel it. Suspecting Shira to have betrayed him, he threatened her that by the time he'd had his revenge, he intended to have a tiger-skin hanging on his wall, and that he didn't care whose it was.

Gutt beat the Sub-Zero Heroes to the continent where he had taken Peaches, Ellie, as well as the rest of the herd hostage. Manny voluntarily came aboard Gutt's ship to exchange himself for his daughter, but Gutt went back on his word, stating Manny took everything from him and the callous captain intended to do the same when Peaches' friend, Louis, stood up to the big ape.

Amused, Gutt accepted Louis's challenge, telling Gupta to let the molehog have a weapon. Louis threw the weapon into the air, distracting everyone as he burrowed into the ice and popped up by Gutt, smashing a heavy piece of ice onto Gutt's foot. The pain distracted Gutt, enabling Peaches to escape as an all-out brawl between the Sub-Zero Heroes and the pirates ensued.

When it seemed the pirates had the upper-hand, Granny's pet whale, Precious, appeared and sprayed Gutt's pirates away (except for Shira who'd switched sides) while Peaches knocked Gutt away from her mother.

Not about to be outdone, Gutt tore Manny away from his herd, leading to a final battle between them as they rode an iceberg down a steep slope. Despite Gutt's acrobatics and swordplay, Manny managed to defeat him and send the pirate flying.

Gutt landed on a piece of ice and was enticed by a Siren in the guise of a female ape. Falling for the trick, Gutt was presumably devoured by the monster.

What became of the rest of the pirates is unknown.
