Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth - 2 - Chapter 2: Paradise, Hawaiian Style
3Chapter 2 opens as Ichiban and Sawashiro have a chat and the latter gives a revelation about Chairman Hoshino's death and has a favor for Ichi involving a passport and a meeting at Heian Tower, in Chinatown.
Which means the northern part of town is now explorable! So of course, I take a few detours to check out the places, like Seiryo High, and the various shops before heading to our destination.
Once there, Sawashiro reveals quite a few things about Sawashiro and Akane, Ichiban's mother, who lives in Hawaii where she was originally from! And thus, he plainly asks our hero to go there and meet her, quite the journey!
And that journey requires some preparation with Adachi and Nanba's help, including a trip to Arakawa's grave. Then the time to leave comes, but as we step out, a familiar situation presents itself to us and we need to deal with some Creep, reintroducing the concept of Sujimon as the Sujimon Sensei reinstall the Sujidex on Ichiban's smartphone, no doubt Hawaii has plenty of them in store too!
And as we finally leave Japan to set foot on beautiful Hawaii, Ichiban finds no shortage of trouble to get into, but also a valuable friend by the name of Eiji Mitamura!
And his help will come in handy as Ichiban finds himself confronted by a local Yakuza and his cronies. Eiji will support you with stat buffs, but you're still fighting solo, Grand Liner helps if you can line up multiple targets, otherwise make good use of furniture lying around to unleash Weapon Attacks to clear the crowd.
Once these guys are dispatched, Yamai himself will join the battle, putting Eiji out of commission for a few turns. Yamai attacks twice per turn, his Taste Steel hits twice, it's just a matter of timing to get both perfect guards in. Make good use of any weapons lying around to deal extra damage, and if none are available, it's the moment to unleash the Bat Breaker. A cutscene will eventually play, resulting in Yamai being knocked on the ground, a prime opportunity to unleash a big attack, which finished the fight for me!
This victory leads to a few cutscenes, ending the chapter of Ichi's eventful arrival in Hawaii!
