Dark Instruments: Yakuza Pirates in Hawaii Guide

Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii introduces two distinct combat styles for Goro Majima. His pirate-themed "Sea Dog" fighting technique features four powerful crowd-control finishers. However, collecting all Dark Instruments in Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii requires significant effort.

Acquiring the Dark God's Violin in Pirate Yakuza

The Dark God's Violin serves as your initial Dark Instrument in Pirate Yakuza, and it's uniquely tied to main story progression. This quest emerges during Chapter 2, when crew member Jason directs you to meet an old acquaintance. During this encounter, Majima's crew clashes with the Devil Flag pirates, who murdered Jason's friend and stole the priceless Pharaoh Stone.

Players then encounter Misaki, the daughter of Jason's slain friend, who joins the crew seeking vengeance. This sparks the side story that leads you east of Madlantis to obtain your first Dark Instrument.

You'll face unusually strong Devil Flag pirate ships - focus attacks on the flagship to board it. Victory awards the Dark God's Violin, followed by an opportunity to test it against 100 island enemies.

After defeating island foes, captains Yakuza, Ronin, Shinobi, and Zeus challenge your crew. While optional for the main story, defeating them all becomes necessary for completing your Dark Instrument collection.

Securing the Dark God's Ocarina in Pirate Yakuza

Following your first major battle, Devil Flag markers appear throughout sailing routes. Each defeated pirate ship contributes toward the required 70 Devil Flags needed to unlock Atali Island.

Prepare a strong landing party for Atali Island's multi-wave assaults. After overcoming these challenges and defeating Captain Yakuza, the Dark God's Ocarina becomes yours.

Obtaining the Dark God's Guitar in Pirate Yakuza

Captain Yakuza's apparent tip about the Pharaoh Stone's location proves deceptive, triggering another large-scale battle - perfect for testing your new Ocarina.

The crew learns of Zeus's Flame Island destination, requiring 130 Devil Flags and at least three-star ranking for success.

After collecting flags, sail to Flame Entrance Lighthouse to unlock four challenging treasure islands with health item restrictions.

Following island conquests comes another naval battle - prioritize boarding the flagship.

Select Jason, Masaru, Minami, and Saejima for Flame Island's battles against Captain Ronin. Victory rewards the Dark God's Guitar.

Earning the Dark God's Saxophone in Pirate Yakuza

The final Dark Instrument demands Pirate Rank Four and 220 Devil Flags. Increase rank through story missions, recruiting, and side activities.

Approaching Frost Entrance Lighthouse triggers Devil Flag fleet encounters and unlocks four additional islands.

Defeat Captain Shinobi's First Fleet before island battles lead through caves and recovery zones.

The Frost Island climax pits you against Shinobi's forces. Victory yields the Saxophone, though Zeus's hostage situation requires one final confrontation.

The optional Zeus battle presents significant challenge but completes the Devil Flag storyline satisfactorily.
