Welcome to NGB and our Like a Dragon Infinite Wealth Beach Guardian substory guide. The Beach Guardian substory line is composed of 3 substory’s all related together and each one can be found listed below along with what you’ll need to do in order to complete them.
How to Start the Beach Guardian Substory
In order to start the substory, you’ll need to travel to East Aloha Beach along the southern part of Honolulu. Once you’re there, dive into the ocean and approach the substory marker on the map in the center of the accessible ocean.
16 Beach Guardian: Water, Water Everywhere
A cutscene will start in the ocean near the center of the area where Kasuga sees a person drowning. Raymond quickly arrives and asks Ichi to help save the swimmer. As the cutscene ends, Ichi, intrigued by lifeguard work, offers to help, and Raymond tasks him with giving out bottles of water to the people on the beach within 3 minutes. Keep an eye on your mini-map while searching the beach. Blue dots on the map indicate people you can talk to. Look for those mentioning feeling dizzy or having red cheeks. After handing out all 10 bottles of water, another cutscene will play, completing the subquest.
Rewards: Resurrection Bolus which revives a fallen ally with all of their HP
17 Beach Guardian: No Kidding Around
Location: Honolulu – East Aloha Beach at the Lifeguard Shack
To start this substory, you need to finish substory 16 Beach Guardian: Water, Water Everywhere first. After some time, go back to the beach to find Raymond in front of one of the Lifeguard shacks. Talk to him to trigger a cutscene and choose “Help out” when prompted.
After agreeing to help, a lady will run up in a panic, saying her daughter Emmy is missing. She’ll describe the girl: wearing a red swimsuit and straw hat with a blue ribbon, and six years old. To find her, go east along the beach to the Swimsuit Changeroom. Emmy will be leaning against a tree to the right of the surfboard racks, past a tower of inner tubes. Talk to the girl, and she will confirm she’s Emmy, mentioning that she lost her mom while chasing a hermit crab. Kasuga will then escort her back to her mom.
Soon after, a Panicked Woman will show up asking for help finding her missing son Billy. He was last seen wearing white swimwear with an orange baseball cap and is 10 years old. To find him, head west along the beach to find the boy playing in the sand. Speak with him to confirm he’s Billy, and Kasuga will escort him back to his mom. This will lead to a cutscene, and the substory will be completed.
Rewards: You’ll receive the Heartful Golem comic that will increase Kasuga’s kindness stat.
18 Beach Guardian: Heroes of the Sand
Location: Honolulu – East Aloha Beach at the Lifeguard Shack
To kick off this substory, you’ll need to finish substory 17 Beach Guardian: No Kidding Around first. After completing that, wait a bit and then go back to the Lifeguard Shack to find Raymond. Talk to him to start the substory and choose “Can I pitch in?” when asked.
This time, Kasuga is put on trash duty… until a thief swipes a woman’s wallet! Being the hero he is, Ichi will chase after the thief, leading to a sequence where you have to hit button prompts to avoid people and objects on the beach while going after the thief. Once you catch him, a cutscene will play, and Kasuga will return the wallet. As a reward, Raymond will treat us to a cool drink!
After some time passes, Ichi will wonder why Raymond is taking so long and will head to the juice cart to look for him. Go west along the beach past the Lifeguard Shack to find him being hassled by the same thugs from before. Approach them to trigger a cutscene that leads to a fight against the group of level 10 Bothersome Tourists. Take care of them to trigger another cutscene and complete the substory.
Rewards: You’ll be rewarded with some Infrared Goggles
