How to unlock the Dragon of Legend achievement in Yakuza 6: The Song of Life - Definitive Guide
Legend difficulty is unlocked immediately after just beating the game on any difficulty. For this achievement, we are gonna do an exploit that allows you to only have to do the last fight on Legend this glitch was in the PS4 version (I just did the glitch on Xbox and PC and it still works. If for whatever reason it gets patched out I'll update the guide). Once you’ve reached the point of no return in the final chapter when you talk to Nagumo in Serena to say you’re ready for the final battle. For now, you’re gonna hit no and you’re gonna go make 2 new completely different save slots. Now that you have 2 different save slots like save 1 and Save 2. Now that you have the slots go beat the game normally. After you’ve beaten the game you should see that you’ve unlocked legend go load up the save that doesn’t have clear data on it. Once it’s loaded up go change the difficulty to legend and go beat the game again and the achievement should unlock. On your legendary run after you've beaten the game you can finally skip the credits to make it go by a little bit faster. The achievement should unlock when you get to the results screen.

Can confirm, as of August 11, 2021, changing the difficulty to Legend before starting the final two fights will get this.

Worked like a charm, thanks for helping me get my first 1,000/1,000 ever in a Yakuza game.
I will say this though: Bring healing/items. The enemies hit extremely hard, even with maxed out stats. I was losing health quickly and almost died once because of it.

Unlike earlier games in the series, you do not need to complete the game on "Hard" before doing "Legend". As long as you have completed the game once, you can do a Legend playthrough.
When starting a Legend playthrough based on an existing Premium Adventure save file, you will keep the following:
- Skills
- Inventory and equipment
- Money
- Most Adventure and Minigame award progress
- All Battle award progress
- Kiryu Clan character levels and win counts
- Spearfishing collected spears
- Friendship level with New Gaudi patrons, up to level 3
- Hostess levels and profile progress, except for Diamond level
- Baseball player levels
- Cat friendship levels
You will not keep:
- Substory completion
- Kiryu Clan progress
- Trouble Missions
- Spearfishing level
- Baseball player recruitment
- Kiryu Clan members that are found in-game; members obtained through a code will be available from the beginning.
- Darts rival victories
- Cat collection (they must be found again, but they retain their full friendship level)
- Completion of Live Chat girls
Effectively, what this means is that any completions award tied to a substory, either directly or indirectly, becomes available again. You may find this very helpful if you're trying to complete the "Kiryu Clan Enforcer", "Peak Kiryu" and "Skill Master" trophies.
As with all Yakuza Legend mode playthroughs, remember to save often! You should be able to do the playthrough in about six hours while skipping cutscenes. Carry a full supply of goods from RIZAP, especially when going to the shipyards late in the game.
