After regaining Esquie’s ability to fly with passengers, Expedition 33 can fully explore the Continent. This allows you to reach new islands and floating areas to find new weapons, Pictos, cosmetic items, and even fight optional bosses. To find the Powerful Shield Pictos, fly east beyond the main ocean to reach the Endless Night Sanctuary.

This is a hidden area full of powerful enemies like the Sakapatate, made by Gestrals. Fight through the area until you reach the end, where the local Gestral Merchant, Anthonypo, has set up shop. This merchant is tall and lean, unlike most Gestral Merchants you can trade with. However, they will not trade with you unless you beat them in battle. Pick your strongest party member and defeat Anthonypo. After winning, you can buy the Pictos for 80,040 Chroma.
