This guide explains how to unlock the strongest shinobi class in Sailor Piece, the exact stat and item requirements, and the most efficient boss farming strategy to get there. You’ll learn what to grind, where to grind it, and common mistakes that waste hours of progress.
What Is the Strongest Shinobi?
The strongest shinobi in Sailor Piece is the Rinnegan Shinobi, a hidden advanced class that requires you to complete a multi-stage questline and collect a rare drop from a level 2,500 boss. It is not a race or a fruit—it is a class that changes your fighting style, giving you access to six new moves, a passive chakra regen boost, and a 20% damage increase against boss-type enemies. Most players consider it the endgame PvE class because of its sustain and burst combo potential.
Full Requirements to Unlock
Before you can even start the unlock quest, you must meet these base requirements. If you are missing any of them, the quest giver will not appear.
- Level 2,000+ – The quest giver, the Hermit of the Hidden Leaf, only spawns for players at or above this level.
- 2,500,000 Beli – Required to purchase the quest entry scroll. This is consumed on first use.
- 1,000 Fragments of the Six Paths – Dropped by the Six Paths of Pain raid boss (see farm section below).
- Complete the “Eternal Duel� quest – Defeat the Shadow Ronin at the top of Mount Myoboku. This is a solo instance, and you cannot use allies or summons.
- 50,000 mastery in any sword – The class is sword-focused, so the game checks your highest sword mastery.
Step-by-Step Unlock Process
Once you meet the requirements, follow these steps exactly. Missing a step forces you to restart the entire sequence.
- Travel to the Hidden Leaf Village and find the Hermit NPC near the Hokage Rock. He appears as a blue exclamation mark if you are level 2,000+.
- Pay the 2,500,000 Beli and receive the Scroll of the Six Paths. Do not open it yet.
- Go to Mount Myoboku (north of the Wano sea gate). Climb to the summit and interact with the stone tablet. This consumes the scroll and starts the Eternal Duel.
- Defeat the Shadow Ronin. He has 15 million HP, uses a teleport slash, and heals 1% HP every 10 seconds. Recommended: use a water-based fighting style to slow him.
- After the duel, talk to the Hermit again. He will ask for the 1,000 Fragments. Hand them over.
- You now unlock the Rinnegan Shinobi class. Equip it from the Class tab. Your sword mastery stays, but your fighting style changes to the class’s unique moveset.
Boss Farm Breakdown: Where to Get Fragments
The only source of Six Paths Fragments is the Six Paths of Pain raid boss, located on the floating island above the Hidden Rain Village. The boss spawns every 30 minutes on each server, and you need to deal at least 10% of its total HP to get any drops.
- Boss HP: 50 million
- Damage threshold: 5 million (10%)
- Fragments per kill: 10–15 (random)
- Respawn timer: 30 minutes real time
- Recommended level: 2,200+
At an average of 12 fragments per kill, you need roughly 83 kills to reach 1,000. With a 30-minute respawn, that is about 41 hours of farming if you solo every spawn. In practice, you will join a farming crew, which reduces the time to about 15–20 hours because you can rotate servers.
Optimized Farming Strategy
Here is the most efficient way to farm the fragments without burning out.
- Join a 4-player squad – The boss splits its attention, and each player only needs to deal 5 million damage. A balanced squad is one tank, two DPS, and one support.
- Use the “server hop� method – Kill the boss on your server, then switch to a different server (via the server list) where the boss is about to spawn. Many servers have the same 30-minute timer offset.
- Focus the outer paths first – The boss has six sub-bodies (Asura, Human, Animal, Preta, Naraka, Deva). Kill the Preta Path first because it drains your chakra. Then kill the Deva Path to stop its AoE pull.
- Bring a water-style move – Water-based moves deal 30% extra damage to the boss because it has a fire affinity. This is a hidden mechanic, not stated in-game.
- Do not use summons – Summons take aggro but do not count toward your damage threshold. They also make the boss enrage (50% damage reduction) if they die.
Common Mistakes and Misconceptions
Many players waste hours because of a few avoidable errors. Here are the most common ones.
- Not meeting the level requirement first – The Hermit simply does not spawn below level 2,000. Do not waste time looking for him.
- Using the scroll before reaching the tablet – If you open the scroll in your inventory, it is consumed and you must buy another. Only interact with the tablet when you are ready.
- Thinking the fragments are tradeable – They are not. You cannot buy them from other players or the auction house.
- Assuming the class is a race – It is a class. You can still equip any race, but the class’s passive only works with swords.
- Farming the wrong boss – The “Six Paths of Pain� is not the same as the “Pain� boss in the Hidden Rain Village. The raid boss is on the floating island, not on the ground.
Is It Worth the Grind?
The Rinnegan Shinobi is the strongest PvE class, but it is not the best for PvP. Its high damage reduction against bosses and chakra regen make it ideal for raids and boss hunting, but in player-versus-player combat, its moves have long cooldowns and are easily dodged. If you mainly play PvP, consider the Mythical Zoan class instead, which has better mobility and combo potential. If you are a PvE player, the grind is worth it because the class cuts boss kill times by roughly 30%.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I unlock the Rinnegan Shinobi with a friend?
No. The Eternal Duel is a solo instance. Your friend cannot help you with the Shadow Ronin, but they can help you farm the fragments before that step.
What happens if I die during the Eternal Duel?
You are sent back to the base of Mount Myoboku and must climb again. The scroll is not consumed again, so you can retry as many times as you want.
Does the class work with any sword?
Yes, but the passive damage boost only applies when you have a sword equipped. If you use a fist or gun, you lose the 20% boss damage bonus.
How long does the full unlock take?
If you are already level 2,000 and have the Beli, the fragment farm takes about 15–20 hours with a squad. The duel itself takes about 10 minutes once you learn the boss’s patterns.
Is there a faster way to get fragments?
No. The drop rate is fixed at 10–15 per kill. There is no luck stat or game pass that increases it. Server hopping is the only way to speed up the process.
Can I reset my class after unlocking it?
Yes, you can switch back to any previously unlocked class for free. The Rinnegan Shinobi remains unlocked forever once you obtain it.
