If you are grinding Sailor Piece right now, you probably noticed that this update quietly changed the entire meta. Two new legends entered the game — Qin Shi Huang and Aizen — and both of them completely rewrite how boss farming and PvP flow. I spent real time testing both, watching how they behave in actual combat, and this guide breaks down exactly how you and I should obtain them, use them, and decide which one truly fits your playstyle.
Sailor Piece Qin Shi Huang and Aizen Guide
Aizen is introduced as a sword-type legend built around ranged pressure, burst windows, and passive damage buffs. Qin Shi Huang is a melee legend designed for close-range domination, sustain loops, and aggressive boss melting. These two were not added as filler — they were added to replace old meta picks.
How To Obtain Aizen
Aizen is unlocked through a full questline and is not purchased directly.
NPC Location
Aizen’s main NPC is found on Hueco Mundo Island.
You must complete the questline given by this NPC to unlock Aizen.
Boss Drops
The Aizen Boss also spawns on Hueco Mundo Island. This boss can drop additional Aizen-related items required for progression and trait rolling.
Secret Damage Buff
There is also a secret Aizen NPC hidden in the same world. Interacting with this NPC grants a permanent damage buff to your Aizen, which massively improves both PvE farming speed and PvP kill pressure.
How To Obtain Qin Shi Huang
Qin Shi Huang is obtained through a vendor system rather than a questline.
Vendor Location
The Qin Shi Huang seller is located on Boss Island.
Boss Island works similar to Saber Island — you spawn the area and interact with the vendor to unlock Qin Shi Huang directly.
Aizen Combat Breakdown
When I use Aizen, the first thing I notice is how oppressive his pressure feels. His sword abilities allow you to apply damage while maintaining safe spacing, which makes him incredibly strong against aggressive melee players. His damage scaling becomes even scarier after unlocking the secret NPC buff, turning Aizen into a boss farming monster.
Aizen excels when you prefer:
Ranged zoning
Controlled spacing
Safe burst windows
Fast boss clears with minimal risk
Qin Shi Huang Combat Breakdown
Qin Shi Huang is the exact opposite playstyle. When I run Qin, I stay in the enemy’s face, stacking pressure nonstop. His melee kit rewards constant aggression and sustained damage uptime. He shines in boss fights where you can stay locked on target and melt HP bars with uninterrupted combos.
Qin Shi Huang excels when you prefer:
Close-range domination
High sustain
Aggressive boss farming
PvP pressure through raw damage
Which One Should You Choose
If you want safe, high-damage farming with strong PvP zoning, Aizen becomes your best long-term investment.
If you want raw aggression, faster solo boss melts, and direct melee pressure, Qin Shi Huang fits your style better.
Both are meta-defining, and whichever one you build, you are stepping into the new top tier of Sailor Piece power.
This update did not just add two characters — it reshaped the entire endgame.
