Jack begins by telling them, "We'll hunt. I'm going to be chief," in this way immediately distinguishing his style of leadership from that of Ralph, and "the crisis passed easily" by him taking command in this way. He then tells them they won't dream in this portion of the island, and after that he tells them they will hunt pig and give some of the kill to the beast. When they raid Ralph's camp for the fire, he tells his tribe "Go on--now!" and then repeats that order. Two boys raise their spears and respond,"The Chief has spoken," implying that Jack has ordered them to behave in this way to give recognition to his leadership.
