You are an ordinary person, walking down a street when a voice introduces itself as Truck-Kun and says "Greetings my child. You have been selected to be reincarnated because you are cool." Then, a truck hits you and you die. While traveling between yours you hit a crab that was travelling to your world and swap bodies, becoming a crab with the mind of a human.
[Welcome, hero! You have entered the domain of the System Archipelago!]
[You may contact other islanders (Population: 2) and trade.]
[You may also construct known blueprints with appropriate tools using the System.]

Your goal is to defeat Crabzilla, who murdered all the sentient crabs in the Archipelago.
What do you do?

I'd try to use system commands and see if it's hackable or there's commands I can use, and failing that, do my best to communicate with the other residents of the island, probably via writing and emphatic clawclicking. Through either of these means, I'd try to find a way to a nice non-crab body without yeeting anyone else out of theirs.

I'd then ignore my goal, unless I find out a reason it's actually relevant or useful to not ignore it -- all the sentient crabs are dead, sure, but unless Crabzilla threatens something else, it's literally just a danger to me at this point. I didn't know those crabs, so I have no particular sense of crabvenge.

What do you do?
I search for a freshwater source. While I do so, I see if I can trade for water via long distance System. If neither of those works, then I die.
I gather food and do my best to find nonperishables or long-lasting foods, as well as prepare them, or trade. Otherwise I die.
I do my best to hide in the area in which Crabzilla sleeps. If it for some reason as ridiculously great senses on land, despite being originally aquatic, then I die.
I wait until Crabzilla is sound asleep, subsisting on food and water. I head into nostril (or other breathing apparatus. Depends on how mutated Crabzilla is and in what way), sideways scampering as quickly as I can. I tear up crabzilla's lungs. I head on out. If lungs deflate and encase me like plastic lamination, then I die.
Otherwise, I succeed!

You know, this is uncannily similar to a novel I was planning to write. A girl would be reincarnated as a crab alien, in a pre-cambrian planet, and she would do an epic journey to rise as the dominating species of said planet. But no Truck-kun, she would die hit by a meteor while camping.

Well, if I need to murder Crabzilla, and I have no allies, why would I murder Crabzilla? We should become allies.

in the premise, crabzilla murdered all other crabs, and you're likely to be next

Jaw's theme playing in the background...
Doravg approaching slowly and hiding in the murky seawater...
She pokes her head up, and holds a waterproof sign...
On the sign it is written, in a chicken scrawl so bad, one can barely understand it...
Did someone say BL sentient crabs?
No, no one has said that, but it is the story the BL community doesn't think it needs, and doesn't actually needs, but will get anyway.
In German!
