How to get the Heart of a Champion ability in Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth
To acquire the Heart of a Champion ability you will need to complete both substories that center around Asakura. Namely, these are substories 43 and 44, called A Man Named Asakura and A Changed Man.
Completing substory 43 involves beating Asakura. This substory will also unlock Merciless Melee, another handy ability.
Once you beat Asakura in substory 43, you'll unlock substory 44 where you're tasked with beating him once again. However, now he will be level 26, so you're going to want to make sure not to go in under-levelled for this one. You can start this substory to the west, near Harbor St.
What is the Heart of a Champion ability?
As mentioned before, the Heart of a Champion ability is for our main man Ichiban Kasuga, and it can actually be used with any job.
The ability boosts Kasuga's Attack and Defense as he gets more into the zone and it will only set you back 10MP. As far as stat buffs go, this makes Heart of a Champion one of the better ones.
