Chapter 2 introduces the Pirate Coliseum in Madlantis, requiring ship and crew upgrades. Recruiting five crew members is straightforward, but the $10,000 ship repair presents a challenge. Three primary money-making options exist early in the game: bounty hunting, treasure hunting, and completing Honolulu jobs.

Treasure Hunting in Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth

Treasure chests are scattered across Honolulu and various islands, requiring raids to access. This method is time-consuming and requires leaving Honolulu.

Bounty Hunting for Fast Cash

Honolulu bounties offer the fastest route to $10,000. Smaller bounties yield around $2,000, while larger ones offer up to $16,000. However, higher-value bounties are significantly more challenging early in the game.

A balanced approach involves tackling lower-difficulty bounties ($2,000-$6,000). Utilize Goro's Sea Dog style for crowd control and switch to Mad Dog for boss fights.

Bounties are easily identified on the map by a red handcuff icon. Approaching a bounty marker displays its difficulty, reward, and details, allowing informed decisions.

Bounty fights function similarly to other combat encounters. Defeating the bounty boss and their henchmen awards thousands of dollars, quickly accumulating the required $10,000 for the Goromaru upgrade.

Completing several Honolulu bounties provides ample funds to progress the story. While combat-intensive, this is the most efficient method for rapid campaign advancement.
