After receiving another letter from the Sultan in August 1499, Kamal set sail for the Ionian Bay. Venice is in great pain. A huge fleet sent by David Pasha to the Ionian Bay was waiting for Kamal Rais. The total number of his ships stood at two shows, of which there are twenty large galleys, two karaks, one karak is Kamal Rais's Goke, the other is Burak Rais's. On August 12, they were confronted by Antonio Grimani, Andre Lordan and Gianluigi Polani's fleet of 100 ships. The Venetian Navy has been the best navy in the Mediterranean for the last five hundred years. After three days of three-point clashes on August 12, 15 and 20, the final battle began on August 25. It was the first naval battle in the history of the world where both sides used artillery on ships. The range of the Turkish artillery was longer than that of the Venetians, but it did not gain much. The ships of Venice were avoiding the shelling by moving back and forth in the sea as they wished. Despite being freed from Turkish artillery, the Venetians were unable to escape the Turkish archers. They were joined by four huge French warships. This time the turn of the war turned. One by one, twenty Turkish ships caught fire in the attack of the revived Christian ships. Burak and Kamal became reckless. Both Lordan and Polani's ships were the biggest source of power in Venice. In an adventurous attack, Lordan and Polani's two ships collided head-on with Burak's ship.
Burak made a calculation in his cold head. There are seven hundred warriors in his ship, and twelve hundred in the two ships of Lordan-Polani. The three ships are bound together, it is no longer possible for him to do any damage to these two ships. He told most of his soldiers to get on another ship. Then he said Bismillah and set fire to the gunpowder store of his ship. Three ships were blown up in the blast. Burak Rais, Lordan and Polani were killed.
Seeing the bravery of the Turks, the French ship fled in fear. The rest were stunned by the sinking of the best two Christian ships, and Kamal's goke became terrified. The Venice fleet was devastated by the shelling of his heavy artillery. In the first battle of Lepanto, Kamal Rais snatched victory, at the cost of the lives of Burak Rais and three thousand other valiant warriors.
