Yama is a legendary sword in Blox Fruits, one of two cursed katanas in the game, known for high damage and fast slashes. To get it, complete at least 20 Elite Hunter or Player Hunter quests in the Third Sea, then pull the sword from the Secret Temple behind the waterfall on Hydra Island. Thirty qualifying quests guarantees the pull will succeed, while 20 only gives you a random chance.
| Qualifying quests completed | What happens when you pull Yama |
|---|---|
| Fewer than 20 | The sword rejects you, and your character dies |
| 20 to 29 | A random chance to receive Yama |
| 30 or more | Guaranteed success |
How Many Quests Yama Needs in Blox Fruits
Yama's requirement adds up your completed Elite Hunter and Player Hunter quests together, so you don't have to stick to one type. Fifteen of each makes 30, the same as thirty of one kind. Player Hunter quests can take a while, especially when they send you after bounty hunters, while Elite Hunter quests are generally faster and more consistent.
The number to aim for is 30. Twenty qualifying quests lets you attempt the pull, but at that count the result is random. Thirty removes the randomness, so the sword can be claimed once you reach it.
Farming Elite Hunter Quests in the Third Sea
Elite Hunter quests are one way to build your count, and the loop is the same every time:
- Head to the Castle on the Sea in the Third Sea. The Elite Hunter NPC is there.
- Click the Elite Hunter and accept the quest to defeat an Elite Pirate.
- Travel to the island the quest marks and defeat the Elite Pirate.
- Return to the Elite Hunter, accept another quest, and repeat.
Elite Pirates most often spawn at Floating Turtle and Hydra Island, and only occasionally at Great Tree and Port Town. Unlocking portals makes getting between islands quicker.
Entering the Secret Temple on Hydra Island
Once your quest count is ready, head to Hydra Island in the Third Sea and look for the waterfall. Walk through the base of it, and you'll come to a blocked gate. That gate is the entrance to the Secret Temple.
The gate won't open on its own. You'll need to break it with a destructive move, meaning any move that can break objects in the world. Once it's gone, walk through to the next room.
Defeating the Five Ghosts Inside the Temple
Five Ghosts wait in the room past the gate, and you must defeat all of them before you can take Yama. They're relatively easy to beat, so the main thing is to clear the room completely before moving on. Once it's clear, walk up to the Yama sword at the center of the room.
Pulling the Yama Sword and Reading the Result
Click the sword repeatedly, up to four times, until the game shows a message.
If the message says "The sword has accepted you as its new owner!", Yama is yours. Getting it also unlocks the Demon Mode title.
If the sword rejects you, your character dies and the attempt is over. Under 20 qualifying quests, you need to build your count before trying again. Between 20 and 29, a rejection is just the random chance going against you, so keep completing quests and pull again. At 30, the pull can't fail.
