I Tested Pirate Shop Token Clickbait Fortnite Shorts! | Transcript:

There are YouTube shorts claiming you can get the pirate ship token 100% of the time and unlock a secret golden Luffy skin. So today I'm testing 15 of them out and seeing which ones are real and which ones are just clickbait. You want to know how to get the pirate shop? Well, don't worry, I got you covered. First thing you want to do is get yourself in a squad cuz when you get any pirate loot, the entire squad gets it. You want to head POI cuz this place has more chest spawns than anywhere else on the map and nobody knows about it either because they're all underground. But first, you got to equip the plunder sprite cuz this little guy. So, when you

open a chest, you get the gold rush effect, which gives you a chance. Look at that. It's rapid. I got to try this. Let's check out the giant chest. Yep, it's still here on the island. And I've got the sprite equipped. My squad are flying in. And we have a load of buried treasure. If I open the first one, this plunderer sprite. Boom. Gives me the gold rush effect. Dude, they 100% put this sprite in the game just for people to open chests as quickly as possible. They knew what they were doing. The only thing is this sprite is extremely rare. It is a mythic variant and the rarest one in the game. But if

you or your friend gets one, make sure they let you extract it so you can all have it on. Oh no. People know about this spot. THIS LOOT IS MINE. LEAVE ME ALONE. See you later. Come here before this spot gets too busy, people. Is this for guaranteed ruby? Ruby what? Like a ruby item or a ruby chest. There's loads of epic chests. Oh, look at that. It's a ruby sprite chest. And it guarantees that you get the fortune variant on there. This vault is here at the ASAP Rocky Vault. There's loads of vaults around the island, but this one potentially is a guaranteed ruby chest. If you didn't know, sprite ch What the

is that gold? If you didn't know, sprite chests have a chance to be a different color, which guarantees a variant sprite within it. I've actually never seen one before. That's the first clip I've ever seen of one. To test this, I simply need to get a vault key, but these things are not always easy to find. Can't tell if there's one in there. There's definitely some sort of purple glow. Come on. Boom. That wasn't too bad. Let's go. If this works, by the way, the vault key can be used on any vault. When you get it, it will just highlight the closest vault to you. So, you could be on the other side of the map and come back to the ASAP Rocky vault if this works.

Let's take a look. This would be insane. There actually be a really good reason to open up vaults. They guarantee sprite variant chests. Ooh. Oh no. Wait. That's normal, isn't it? No. Don't tell me we've been click baited. Oh my. I was so excited for this one. Vaults are still amazing cuz I mean, look at all the chests. But I wanted a ruby one. Did you hear that? What? Oh, the coral buddies. Oh my goodness. I found the coral buddies. Let's go. Wait. Wait, there's more. You're g hearing all the secret loot.

Oh, you got to emote to get it. Wait, what the Oh my god. I need to try this out. Oh my gosh. What did we just looks insane? [screaming] Oh my god. There's no way. SHE GOT A FREE REWARD IN THERE. I just found a pickaxe. All right, I've done a bit of research and I believe that Happy Gal was inside this waterfall. Yep. I know it sounds crazy, but go up to the waterfall and boom, you can go in. There appears to be nothing when you first go in, but we know that she heard something. I can think I can just hear it. My sound isn't quite the same as hers, but we are in. Why they locked up the coral buddies, though? That's so sad. Okay,

the first layer of this place is true. And I really don't think Happy Gal would clickbait me. Free the coral buddies. Oh, I just killed it. Uh, sorry about that. My bad. I thought I was going to free you. But this second layer is what I'm interested in. Okay. Can you get through here? You can't break it. This is where she got one of her free items in there, by the way. Is that guaranteed? Oh. Oh, I thought that wasn't going to work for a second. We're in, baby. Sprite chest. Oh my god, this place is actually amazing. Okay. Can I get as lucky as Happy Gal? Can I please get myself? I'll take the gloves. Honestly,

I've not had anything so far. I'll take the gloves. I don't even mind. No. Anything free? Last chance, please. This is a great loot spot, though. I'm not knocking it, but I'm not as lucky as her, apparently. Invincibility glitch. Dash into the car. break the car and you can't take any damage. I mean, that seems OP. You could literally run around the entire island opening chests. All right, let's see. Free item. No. Okay, it's fine. It doesn't matter. It's not why I'm here. I'm here to uh try and go invincible if this glitch works. I would not use it to abuse free winds and annoy people. I would just use it so I

could open up all the chests on the island without being disturbed. That would be my goal. There we go. Boom. We got the Zoro sword. Perfect. Now we just need a car, I believe, which are actually pretty rare. There are they are on the island, but there's not many of them. Boom. Here we go. Oh, I think I need to dash into it and get into it at the end of the dash. That's not quite right. Does it go? 3 2 1. Oh, this is not easy. Oh, we're in. That count. Okay, then let's let's get to the passenger side. Use it. Boom. Stay in the car. Does this kill me? No, we're okay. Hey, are we invincible? Come on, shoot me. I'm over here. Let's test this out. Have we just

glitched the game massively? NO. I wanted to go around being invincible. You never know if these glitches are going to work. You know, road didn't listen to the sign. What? Oh my god. A They've added another troll sign. Okay, so I think he was here in the cavern. It looked like it, but I've not seen the sign before. Oh, it's right here at the top. Oh, I didn't even notice that. It's a bit bent. Okay, let's uh let's see what happens then. Oh my god. Yeah. Oh my Oh, thank goodness. You can't dive in full damage anymore. Dude, use this and troll your friends for sure. Oh, looks like we're staying here for a secret loot spot.

This time we're not going to get trolled. But instead, when the sun shines, what the where did they come from? All right, so we're missing that sign this time. Instead, we're going to drop in and wait for the right time of day. It looked like he was just stood here and chests came out of the ground. Genuinely, the stuff that's real looks like clickbait, and the stuff that's clickbait looks real. It's hard to know. That's why we do these videos, people. This is a guaranteed two epic chesters from being here at the right time of day. Hear that? How did someone discover this?

Out they come. That just as easy as that. I didn't have to do anything. It just And it gave me the loot. What? That's incredible. You don't even need to open them. Heals, weapons. Okay. If you notice the sun rising, head to this location because only the people that know about it will get this loot. How to get a free golden Luffy skin. Oh, can you get these out of chest as well? Golden apple. Wait, they still in the game. Eat the gum fruit. Oh my god. Head to the cursed cavern. Okay. Catapult through the eye.

Dude, we know there's a golden ASAP Rocky. Press unlocked. Oh my god. Back out the game. I need this, guys. If it's golden skins, I need them. You know what's sad is that apparently if you don't get the ASAP Rocky golden skin this week, they're just going to remove it from the free rewards list. So, I may never get it. But I'm getting the golden Ly skin. Just watch me. These things are really rare, though. I don't I think I Oh my god. That's so quick. That's not bad at all. I thought I was going to be searching a million bajillion fruit baskets to get that. That's huge. I think is with things that are this rare, like having a golden apple and following all these steps gives me hope that we

could be one of the first people in the world to get the golden Luffy skin. This would be amazing. I love his ability to just ye like that right next to the dark face over there. And we need to go through the eye to get this challenge completed. Fun fact, they had a golden Lara cross skin back in like late chapter 2, I think it was, and it glitched and never unlocked on my account, and I will never be able to get it again. Boom. I'm going to get this golden Luffy skin. 3 2 1 golden apple. Eat him. Cannot mess this up. Oh, if I didn't do that properly, I would have cried. Oh my god. Distance tra. Do you see that? Was there was some sort of thing there? Said distance traveled in the top left. Is that the right popup

though? Gold style. No, he's next to a gold pumpkin, but there is no golden Luffy. Seriously, all of that, all of that searching for a golden apple just to get click baited. This is the easiest way to unlock the pirate item shop token. Now, all you're going to do is go over to any vault and you don't need the key for the vault. All you have to do is go over to the window and you'll be able to shoot the floor through the window just like this. What? Or you can just shoot the floor there. And you can see that the chest opens up that we open up the chest.

What? This guy's thrown a bomb and open the He's got something. He didn't even go inside. I'm telling you right now that if this works, it is surely going to get patched within like 2 seconds. On screen here, I'm going to show a map which has all of the vault locations. And technically, if this worked, you don't need the vault key. You can just come here straight away. Now, I've got the bombs and I've got a weapon. I'm going to try both of these methods. You see, there's loads of loot in there. Loads of loot in there. Oh, so you can definitely shoot through. I caused some damage to that. Look, look, look, look. Bullets are going through, bro. This could work. Getting the shot is really Oh, there you go. I

can get the wall, but I need to get the floor if I want to break the chest. The shooting method is difficult and you can't even get all of a chest anyway, so that may not be very reliable. But I do have some bombs. Oh my god. Does that work? Yes. Look, some of the loot's on the floor. Oh my god. Okay, let's throw it in the corner. Oh, that work, dude. It opened the chest. Oh my god. Now, you don't need to actually press the whole button. You can get loot just by having a chest open up in any way possible. This is a legitimate way to potentially get the item shop token without even needing the key. You got to use this before it gets patched.

People the duck race. Oh, is it back? They got hats on. This is a new map. I know that either. Where are we? We're like cursed and lantern. Okay, my head is all the way around. Okay, so nothing. This is so good. I got some good strikes from it. I think they're around here. If this gives you loot, then it is a really good way. Yes, they're here. Hey, the pirate doggies. What's up, guys? My favorite ducks in the whole of Fortnite. This could be a great way of getting free loot. Like, they just literally get the loot for you. All you got to do is follow them. And don't forget, guys, it doesn't

matter who wins, but I'm always rooting for the yellow ducky. He's the original ducky, right? Come on, mate. You got this. And look, there's even like a little cannon chest under here as well that you can pick up along the way. Come on, duckies. Oh my god, that guy got yeated. Where's the finish line? Oh, it's just over there. Okay, we're almost at the end. Here we go. OH, it wasn't yellow. It doesn't matter. What loot can you give me? Please be good. Nothing mythic this season, but could get you one of those free rewards, which means it's worth it. All right, there's a mythic vault if you land at this island right here. You're going to want to find these frog statues

right here, and you have to turn them to the middle. What? Oh, just keep turning. Take and All right, there's one. We got to go to the next one over here. Let's go. Right here. And boom. Number two. There should be one more frog over there. All right, last frog right here. And then we should get the mythic vault. Turn. Secret. And the vault should have opened. Yep. What happened? Oh, what? The chest came out. I don't know what it is with epic and chest appearing out of the floor. I think it's meant to come out of this sand. Oh. Oh, no. I thought I could hear something. There's no way of getting in.

So, I guess we need to summon the frog gods and turn all of these statues. There's one thing I absolutely love when there's a new Fortnite season map. It's when a map is filled with Easter eggs and secrets. Epic have outdone themselves so far with this one. Humanist works. This is very, very cool. There's a giant sword in the ground over there. Never even noticed that before. What the heck? That's one frog facing in the right direction. Let's head over to the others. May as well pick up a free sprite. Okay, let's turn you around.

Boom. It takes a lot of turn. So, if there's people around you, just take your time. I don't think many people will know about this. You may even come to this POI in the middle of a game and someone may not have done it. Let's have a look. Last one over here. All right, let's turn you around. Nice. Imagine this does nothing. One more. Look. Are they going TO COME OUT? OH, they just rose out of nowhere. Yo. Oh my god. Got a mythic. Got legendary weapons, heals. Can't touch the chest, but technically they could give you free rewards, too.

Okay, this place is go. Do not overlook it. There's a broken glitch right now that lets you get a guaranteed pirate shop access, which gives you the entire Fortnite item shop for free for 2 weeks. So, to go ahead and do this bug, you want to load into a battle royale with no sprites equipped. Then you want to go ahead and purposely not deploy your glider so when you fall, you're one HP and make sure you get eliminated by another player. Once you do that, hit continue. Then equip a sprite from this screen and pick any bad sprite you do not like. Then you want to go ahead and click play again from this screen. Once you're in another game with the sprite equipped, land some armor to get a

treasure hunter's chest without worrying about anyone eliminating you. Once you find your treasure hunter's chest, you want to hit search chest. And the second you do that, unplug your Ethernet cable. And as you can see, it searched the chest, but it did not open it. This will also work if you're connected to Wi-Fi or on a console. just by simply closing the app the second you hit search. And since I disconnected my Ethernet, my game is completely frozen. So just go ahead and restart your game. And once you load back in, you will have a Pyop access. Okay, so if you've never seen anything about unplugging your internet in the middle of a Fortnite game, it basically freezes the game. It's really, really

buggy. So it may be tricking the game into not knowing Boom. Perfect. Not knowing what you actually got out the chest. Maybe this will work. So, we got to equip a sprite from this menu. Remember, it's going to put on the kelper. Boom. And then let's click play again. And then we just wait for a game. Okay. You could not get much further away from this. Don't think I've ever been here before, but it is a metal crab. Love that. Now, if I search this, I need to unplug my internet. So, let's get ready. Got to do this properly, otherwise it will open. Three, two, one.

Boom. I can't move. I can move. Well, I can move my view, but I cannot move anymore. The game is fully bugged out. Am I going to get it? I've logged back in. Nope. Everything definitely still cost money. Uh, if I had the icon, it would appear in the bottom right hand corner saying that I could unlock the item shop. Oh, wow. If that worked, everyone would be doing it. I guess we tried, but it is clickbait. This is new. So, around the map there's these wanted sprite posters. So when you interact with it, these are really cool.

It gives you a sprite treasure map. All right. So it's leading me in this direction. That's like the original treasure map. So it uncovers a sprite chest in the ground. Come on. Hey, it's a good one. Squibly. Now, I have spotted these posters or similar posters around the island, but they wouldn't let me interact with them. So, there must be some posters that don't do anything and some posters that give you sprites. The hardest thing about these posters is like Oh, look. Look, IT'S THE EXACT SAME COLOR AS THE WALL. HOW ARE YOU MEANT TO FIND THESE? I literally ran past this like five times. Okay, it's giving me a sprite thing. Nice. I love

that sound. I love that. Shout out to all the OGs that remember getting this treasure item back in the original chapter one. The thing is, it can be quite far. got often pulled into storm. Okay, this one's good. It's not far at all. We're in luck, people. Now, will this give me better loot and better sprites than normal or let's see, it's going to be a ruby chest. It's normal chest. Give me a plunderous sprite. Oh, hot trash, but it does work. Sprite chests from wanted posters. Keep your eye out for them cuz they're so easy to miss.

How to get captain? I should Oh, I saw this. Oh, yeah. Look, Speed's getting a new skin. What? To get it first, equip his back bling and Speed. Eat the gum fruit. I know Speed's a massive fan of One Piece. Three couches. Oh my god. We're doing the speed emote. What the speak? Wait, what? His logo's in there. Has anyone noticed that before? Oh, damn. Right, first things first. Boom. He's only got two skins. This will be his third skin. Totally not jealous.

Got to put the straw hat on. Luffy's straw hat. Boom. It looks sick already, to be fair. I found the gum fruit. I floated in the air waiting for this to come down. You are mine. We got to eat this. Then once you're at the Zars, we're going to be heading to the Loot Landing I believe it's called. We've technically merged Luffy with I show speed. What is this going to give us? Will it work? Loot Lagoon. Sorry, not Loot Landing. Loot Lagoon. Dude, if that speed logo is in the captain's room, this has got to work, right? All right. So, we got to do the crouches. One, two, three. I ain't hearing any barks. But

I'm genuinely interested to know if Speed's logo is actually hidden in this. Oh, that would have been a very cool Elise drag like hint to him coming. Not there. The skin is real, but you can't get it early. Best movement tech in a new season, right? Show me. Uh, this surely needs to get patched. If pro people are using it in pro games, this is crazy. All right, we got to find ourselves the new triple swords, please. Triple katanas, please. I need to try this. This feels like something that may get patched quite quickly. Please, please, please. Oh, a key. Thank you. I will take that. This could be my answer.

Getting the sword. I love how these are hidden. They're not very obvious unless you have the key. Boom. Oh my god. There you go. Look at that, baby. Can't leave any of these chests unopen, though. Please, item shop token, please. No. Okay, but it's fine. It's fine. That's not what I want right now anyway. So, all he was doing, I believe, is swapping weapons. Oh. Oh, no. We got it. Oh my god. Look at that. Boom. It infinitely lets you jump in the air. What? Oh my goodness. I feel like a god. The ultimate movement tech is real. I don't know how long it's going to be in the game for though. This season started two hours ago and bro has the max tier skin ace already.
