How to unlock the The Ultimate Dual Blade achievement in FINAL FANTASY IX - Definitive Guide

Once you have finished in Terra, return on a chocobo to where the Shimmering Isle used to be (just south of the Lost Continent). You will find a few icebergs there. Give your chocobo a dead pepper to dive for treasure. Keep moving around in the small area between icebergs, feeding your chocobo dead peppers, until you find it. It took me eight or nine dives before I hit it.

The Ultima Weapon is Zidane's ultimate weapon and can be obtained during Disc 4 on the world map. This one is somewhat annoying to obtain and you will need at least an Ocean Chocobo to get it. Arm yourself with plenty of Dead Peppers (you can get 99 of them from talking to the chocobo to the left of Fat Chocobo in Chocobo's Paradise) and go to where Shimmering Island used to be, South of the Lost Continent. If you can't remember exactly where it was, press the to open a fullscreen version of the the world map and hover the cursor over the shining dot in this location.

Once in the approximate location, press to open the menu and select 'Eat a Dead Pepper'. Unlike other ocean treasures, there are no bubbles to donate this location so it will likely take numerous tries to find the right spot. Save your game beforehand, just in case you waste all your Dead Peppers. Eventually, when you dig and hit the exact centre of where Shimmering Island used to be, you will dig up a treasure chest and it will contain this weapon.

This weapon is at the bottom of the ocean in an unmarked spot near where Shimmering Island's location was (south of Lost Continent), and can only be found on Disc 4. You will need to use a Dead Pepper to blindly search and find the correct spot. There is no indication from the bird if you're close or not either. You can watch this video for a little help, but it will still take some attempts. You can get 99 Dead Pepper from the chocobo next to Fat Chocobo in Chocobo's Paradise, and you can save prior to making your attempts and reload if you somehow fail that many times.

After returning from Terra, to the place where Shimmering Island was. You need a sea chocobo and Dead pepper.

The main clue is written incorrectly.

The place is located slightly higher than Shimmering Island.
There are no bubbles there. A bit difficult to find. I did it about 20 times.
If you don’t have enough pepper, fly to chocobo paradise, in the lower left corner, there on the 2nd floor, to the left of the fat chocobo, another chocobo gives out for free.
