"This time the silence was complete. Ralph's lip formed but no words came out."PAGE 181 This showed that no one was sad or surprised when piggy died. No emotion was not shown for a reason which is Piggy stood for unity and organization. Nobody payed attention to Piggy with his symbolism so I am surprised he did not die earlier than he did.
With Piggy gone there is no need for unity or organization cause that was the only person who got the meaning of that. When piggy died the conch was also smashed and the conch had the same symbolism which is unity. The journey to go get Piggy's specs turned into a bad thing. From there Jack and Roger just try to kill Ralph for leadership because Piggy is gone and if he was not he would not let that happen.
