That container came from the Empire and it was deliberately programmed to open early, so that it could infect the crew of the Bentenmaru and put them into quarantine. If all had gone according to plan, Bentenmaru's Letter of Marque would have expired during the quarantine.

[[WMG: What message did Marika sent to Yotof while Gruier was off the bridge?]]
I think it was, "I will be carrying two cannisters of anesthetic gas when we board the Ghost Ship."

Note the way Ironbeard addresses her - calmly, firmly, without overt aggression or rudeness - and informs her that the Galactic Empire's Empress has charged him with returning her to the Empress' side. Also note that they're both theoretically equals, being pirates recognised by the Empire, and yet Ironbeard kneels before her on one knee, as if a subject before royalty. The last hint is how he tells her he intends to ensure her safety - and Ririka, who's now a member of Ironbeard's crew, foils the attempted assasination.

Most of the time, they take over the other ship's control systems before boarding, and in that case they use normal docking procedures. But in the last episode we saw that they can engage in boarding a ship they don't control, by ramming it. That worked pretty well for Shangrila, but it didn't penetrate very far because of its blunt shape. The blade shape of the Corback class and the Talbot class is more reinforced and should penetrate better, increasing the chance of reaching corridors in the target ship. The dual-blade Maracot class doesn't do this, but by the time that class was designed, the shipyards were already experience building blade-shaped hulls, so the design included two of them.
