In *Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii*, Goro Majima's "Sea Dog" pirate fighting style boasts four powerful finishers ideal for managing large crowds. However, unlocking all the dark instruments can be quite the adventure.

How To Obtain The Dark God’s Violin in Pirate Yakuza

The Dark God’s Violin is your first and mandatory Dark Instrument to unlock in *Pirate Yakuza*. You'll encounter it during Chapter 2 of the main storyline when your crew member Jason directs you to meet an old friend. Here, you'll confront the Devil Flag pirates, who have killed Jason's friend and stolen the priceless Pharoh Stone.

Following this, you'll meet Misaki, the orphaned daughter of Jason's slain friend, who joins your crew seeking revenge. This sets the stage for the side story. To obtain the Violin, follow the questline leading you to the islands east of Madlantis, where you'll face a stronger fleet of Devil Flag pirates. Concentrate your attacks on the boss ship to advance to the next stage of the battle onboard their vessel. After defeating the pirates, you'll secure the Dark God’s Violin and can test its finishing move in a 100-enemy brawl on the island.

Post-battle, you'll meet the fleet's captains: Yakuza, Ronin, Shinobi, and Zeus. They'll challenge you, officially beginning the side quest. While you can bypass this for the main story, collecting all Dark Instruments requires defeating these adversaries.

How To Obtain The Dark God’s Ocarina in Pirate Yakuza

After securing the Violin and engaging in the initial brawl, you'll notice Devil Flag markers across the seas. Defeating these ships earns you Devil Flags. To progress towards the next Dark Instrument, you'll need 70 Devil Flags. Engage any Devil Flags you encounter, whether sailing or guarding treasure islands, to quickly accumulate them.

With 70 flags, Atali Island unlocks on your map. Prepare a robust landing party for this challenge, as you'll face multiple waves of attackers. After navigating these waves, you'll reach the treasure chest containing the Dark God’s Ocarina, but only after defeating Captain Yakuza. Once the boss is down, the Ocarina is yours.

How To Obtain The Dark God’s Guitar in Pirate Yakuza

After defeating Captain Yakuza, a series of events unfolds, leading you to an island where the Pharoh Stone is supposedly hidden. This turns out to be a trap, resulting in another 100-enemy fight. Use this opportunity to test your new Ocarina.

Next, you'll learn that Zeus is heading to Flame Island. You'll need a three-star ranking and 130 Devil Flags to proceed. Ensure you engage every Devil Flag pirate you encounter to gather these flags. Upon reaching the required amount, sail to the Flame Entrance Lighthouse, triggering a cutscene and unlocking four treasure islands: Sunset, Heatwave, Welldone, and Scorching Heat. Remember, these islands don't allow health item use during battles, so upgrade Goro and your landing crew accordingly.

After conquering these islands, you'll face another fleet battle. Focus on the boss ship, board it, and defeat the first mate to land on Flame Island. Choose Jason, Masaru, Minami, and Saejima for the landing party. After smaller skirmishes, you'll face Captain Ronin. Utilize your Dark Instruments to defeat him and claim the Dark God of the Earth’s Guitar from the treasure chest. Only one instrument remains.

The Dark God’s Saxophone is the final Dark Instrument, requiring a Pirate Rank Four and 220 Devil Flags. Increase your rank through main story missions, recruiting new crew members, and engaging in mini-games and side quests. Sail to the Frost Entrance Lighthouse, triggering a cutscene and enabling you to fight the Devil Flag’s Fleet blocking Frost Island. Four additional islands (Snowview, Coldwave, Icicle Island, and Glacial) will be available for plundering more Devil Flags.

Defeat Captain Shinobi’s First Fleet before landing on Frost Island. Navigate through a series of battles leading to a cave and a recovery area to restore health. The final boss fight on Frost Island is against Captain Shinobi. After defeating him, a cutscene unfolds where Zeus takes Misaki hostage, ending with Goro obtaining the final Dark Instrument.

The last challenge is defeating Zeus to rescue Misaki. This two-stage battle is intense and requires a nearly fully upgraded Goromaru. While not necessary for obtaining the instruments, it concludes the Devil Flag saga.

And that is how you obtain all Dark Instruments in *Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii*.
