The '''Kraken''' is a legendary, monstrous {{w|cephalopod}}-like sea monster in ''[[Kingdom Hearts III]]''. It originated from Disney's ''{{w|Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest}}''.

Only the Kraken's tentacles holding the ''Pearl'' are very vulnerable. The ones being used as barriers are much tougher, and requite a lot of time to wear down; this however, is a very poor choice, as it will allow the Kraken to crush the ''Pearl'' uninterrupted. The ''Flying Dutchman'' also assists the Kraken by firing on the ''Leviathan'' from different angles.

The best method is to fire at the gaps in the Kraken's tentacles to damage it. Take out the ''Dutchman'' by firing on its orbs, powering up the ship's bombarding attacks and use them on the Kraken to deal a huge amount of damage at once. Make use of the barrier to hold off fire from the ''Dutchman'', and then retaliate with cannon fire to allow time to fire at the Kraken.

==Origin==

The Kraken first appeared as an antagonist in the 2006 film ''Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest''. It is based on the {{w|Kraken|mythological entity of the same name}}. In the film, Davy Jones has the power to summon it and use it to attack whatever he commands, due to Davy Jones's power to mark those who owed him debt with a black spot. The Kraken destroys two ships; the first is the ''Edinburgh Trader'', which Will Turner is on. It later destroys the ''Black Pearl'', in which it seems to swallow and kill Jack Sparrow, although it took him to Davy Jones' Locker. In ''{{w|Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End}}'', Davy Jones is forced to kill the Kraken under the orders of Lord Cutler Beckett, who controls his heart.
