How To Obtain The Dark God’s Violin

The Dark God's Violin is the first, and story-essential, Dark Instrument. Unlocked during Chapter 2, a crew member (Jason) leads you to a rendezvous with an old friend. This encounter introduces the Devil Flag pirates, who've killed Jason's friend and stolen the Pharaoh Stone. You'll meet Misaki, the friend's daughter, who joins your crew seeking revenge, triggering the side quest. Following the questline leads you to islands east of Madlantis, where a challenging battle against a stronger-than-usual Devil Flag fleet awaits. Focus your attacks on the boss ship to board and defeat them, earning the Dark God's Violin. The game then lets you test it in a 100-enemy brawl. Defeating the Devil Flags on the island initiates a cutscene introducing the fleet captains: Yakuza, Ronin, Shinobi, and Zeus, who challenge you, officially beginning the side quest. While not essential to the main story, defeating these captains is necessary to collect all Dark Instruments.

After the initial battle and brawl, Devil Flag markers appear on your map. Defeating Devil Flag ships earns you Devil Flags; 70 are needed to unlock Atali Island. Prepare a strong landing party, as this island features multiple waves of enemies. Defeat them to reach the treasure chest containing the Dark God's Ocarina, but first, you must defeat Devil Flag Captain Yakuza.

Following Captain Yakuza's defeat, cutscenes reveal a ruse; another 100-enemy battle ensues. The next objective involves Zeus on Flame Island. This stage requires at least a three-star ranking and 130 Devil Flags. Sail to the Flame Entrance Lighthouse, triggering a cutscene and unlocking four treasure islands (Sunset, Heatwave, Welldone, and Scorching Heat) to conquer. Remember, health items are unavailable on treasure islands; upgrade your crew for success. After conquering the islands, another fleet battle occurs; focus on the boss ship to board and defeat the first mate. Then, land on Flame Island with Jason, Masaru, Minami, and Saejima for optimal success. Several battles lead to a fight against Captain Ronin, after which you obtain the Dark God's Guitar.

A Pirate Rank Four and 220 Devil Flags are required for the final Dark Instrument. Sailing to the Frost Entrance Lighthouse initiates a battle against the Devil Flag fleet blocking Frost Island. Four more islands (Snowview, Coldwave, Icicle Island, and Glacial) provide opportunities for more Devil Flags. Defeat Captain Shinobi's first fleet before landing and facing more battles leading to a cave and recovery area. The final boss fight against Captain Shinobi is on Frost Island. After defeating him, a cutscene with Zeus ensues, ending with Goro obtaining the Dark God's Saxophone. A final, challenging two-stage battle against Zeus to rescue Misaki follows, though this is optional for obtaining the Dark Instruments.
