Chapter 2 introduces the Pirate Coliseum challenge in Madlantis, requiring ship and crew upgrades. Recruiting crew is straightforward, but the $10,000 ship repair presents a significant obstacle. Three primary money-making avenues exist early in the game: bounty hunting, treasure hunting, and Honolulu jobs.
Treasure Hunting in Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth

Treasure chests are scattered across Honolulu and various islands, requiring raids to obtain. This method, while viable, is time-consuming and requires leaving Honolulu.
Bounty Hunting: The Fastest Route

Honolulu bounties offer the quickest path to $10,000. Smaller bounties yield around $2,000, while larger ones can reach $16,000. However, challenging boss fights accompany higher-paying bounties, potentially overwhelming early-game players.
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 via 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. Defeat enemies to earn rewards; higher-value bounties may involve multiple health bars and challenging enemy types. Completing bounties provides substantial funds towards the Goromaru repair. Several successful hunts will quickly provide the required $10,000.
This strategy, while combat-intensive, accelerates campaign progression.
