Sharkstones can be acquired via various means throughout the game. One of the main methods to get them is to buy or trade for them. This can be done through merchant ships which will roam near the safe waters around lighthouses.

You will either see the option to trade for them in exchange for some other other resources, or to straight buy them. Additionally, the money option is likely going to set you back by quite a bit, so only do it if it is necessary, and you have the cash to spare.

However, the above method is quite unreliable, as merchant and trading ships do NOT appear all the time. Moreover, even if they do appear, there’s no guarantee that they will have the specific item you are looking for.

Gunpowder Bill

Fret not, however, as there is a more consistent way to acquire Sharkstones (if you have the money to spare). This is Gunpowder Bill. He wanders with his cart near Fuji St. He will be selling lots of resources you will need to upgrade your ship. Gunpowder Bill will sell Sharkstones, Ethereal Egesta, tiers of components, etc.

However, be careful, because Bill isn’t the bravest of fellows. If you start a fight near him, he will run away from the area. Therefore, it is best to avoid any fights near him.
