Esperanza's Treasure
PR TIMESA billion-dollar treasure hidden by pirates 200 years ago. In 1816, the Spanish ship Esperanza was attacked by pirates and washed up on Palmyra Atoll, 1,600 km south of Hawaii. The ship's cargo was said to be worth $1 billion in today's value, including Inca gold, and no one has ever found it.
Spade Tucker (performed by Wheat People)
A moneylender who is said to have obtained "new information" about the Esperanza's treasure, he has come all the way from New York to the waters around Madrantis. He is extremely greedy but timidly vigilant, and appears and disappears from sight while being protected by strong guards.
Saeshima Taiga (Cast: Rikiya Koyama)
After the dissolution of the Tojokai and the Omi Rengo, he has been busy supporting the Kyokudo who have lost the backing of their organizations. However, when he hears that Majima, who was involved in a "new project" in Hawaii, has gone missing, he comes to Hawaii by himself. He is determined to bring Majima back to Japan safely.
Daisaku Minami (played by Hideo Ishikawa)
A former member of the Majima clan, he was the "number one henchman" of the clan. In his younger days, he was known for his love of karaoke, and was seen singing with a firm grip on the microphone in many parts of Kamurocho. He and Nishida, another former gang member, followed Majima to Hawaii, but were scattered when they went missing.
Nishida (Cast: Katsunori Okai)
Despite his unreliable appearance and weak presence, he has been through a lot of rough times. Perhaps as a result of being pushed around by Majima's reckless behavior for a long time, he is able to make an honest comment when Majima starts to say something outlandish.
He talks with his friends in the special "Kizuna Drama" event!
A special event called "Kizuna Drama" will occur as you interact with your friends at sea and in the city. Clearing these events will strengthen your abilities as a crew member.
Kizuna Drama Noah

It is a must-see to see how Majima deals with Noah's problems.
Kizuna Drama Jason
PR TIMESJason, a former treasure hunter, meets Majima and heads out to sea again with his son Noah. The film depicts the complicated parental feelings of a man who really cares about Noah more than anyone else, but is misunderstood because of his clumsiness.

Animal Protection
