Unlocked in Chapter 12, Cloud and friends will gain access to the Tiny Bronco. This airplane-turned-boat gives you the ability to freely roam the Meridian Sea, and with this new freedom is a quest to hunt down lost pirate’s treasure. Located on the dock of Costa Del So, the treasure chest contains a map with four lost locations. There’s a powerful fiend at each grotto guarding a valuable treasure. If you find all four pieces, you’ll be able to transmute a useful treasure. Here’s everything you need to know about the Pirate King’s Treasure.
Use the chest on the Costa Del Sol dock to find a treasure map. The map shows four locations on the Meridian Sea. Each location has a powerful fiend and a piece of a powerful accessory. Collect all four pieces to transmute a unique end-game accessory. You can complete the four grottos in any order, but this is the order we completed them in.
Pirate King’s Grotta Gamma: Located to the northeast of Costa Del Sol. Take the Tiny Bronco up through the rocky shoals to find this grotto, guarded by a powerful fiend.
Pirate King’s Grotto Delta: Travel north from the previous grotto to reach a large island to the south of Midgar. In the northwest corner of this island there’s a small inlet with a dock.
Pirate King’s Grotto Beta: Located to the southeast of Junon. Follow the shore from the giant cannon city. Just south of the normal explorable region, you’ll find a dock leading to this treasure site.
Pirate King’s Grotto Alpha: Found far south of Costa Del Sol. Travel further south from the Gongaga Region port and circle the rocks to reach this hidden port.
Collect all four pieces, then open the Item Transmuter in your menu. Select the Accessories Tab then craft the Corsair’s Compass.
After crafting the compass, a special cutscene will trigger. The compass also leads to treasure. Follow the pointer to discover hidden treasure on the Meridian Sea. The compass will point out Pirate’s Jetsam containers. What are those for? You’ll have to wait
