How to Upgrade Cannons in Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii

In Chapter 2 of *Pirate Yakuza*, you'll explore the vibrant hubs of Honolulu and Madlantis, where your journey truly begins. As you progress through the main quest, you'll meet Julie, the skilled mechanic who runs the GearWorks shop in Honolulu. She's your go-to for upgrading the Goromaru, including its cannons. After meeting her, you can return to her shop to enhance your weapons and even recruit her to your crew.

Upgrading cannons requires various materials, which you can gather by defeating enemies. Here's what you'll need:

• Components
• Quality Components
• Superb Components
• Miscellaneous (animal parts, fruits, stones)

Approach Julie at GearWorks, select the cannon you want to upgrade, and provide the necessary materials. Once upgraded, head to the crew formation menu on your ship to equip the cannons on either side of the Goromaru. Below are the cannon types you can upgrade to, along with their requirements:

Shark Cannon

The Shark Cannon inflicts elemental damage and boasts a quick reload time. However, its damage output is moderate, making it a good choice for early upgrades or as a secondary option. Consider saving your resources for more powerful cannons, but it’s a great way to bring Julie onto your crew.

Egesta Cannon

The Egesta Cannon is perfect for strategic play, dealing slow but steady damage. It fires two rounds at once, compensating for its longer reload time. This cannon allows for diverse damage types, enhancing your tactical options during naval battles.

Laser Cannon

The Laser Cannon is a top-tier choice, delivering devastating damage despite its long reload time. It's highly recommended to save your components for this upgrade, as it can obliterate weaker ships instantly and significantly damage boss ships.

Super Laser Cannon

The ultimate weapon upgrade, the Super Laser Cannon, requires rare components and becomes available later in the game. Its long-range capabilities and immense power make it worth the wait, especially as you tackle tougher battles in the Pirate Coliseum and against the Devil Pirates.

By following this guide, you'll be well-equipped to upgrade your cannons and rule the seas in *Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii*.
