Watched One Piece Season 2 in an absolute frenzy and worry you missed key moments? Relatable. Here’s a quick recap of how the season ended, plus the biggest unanswered questions we have going into Season 3.

And they liberate Drum Kingdom while they’re at it! All the doctors are freed, the citizens are finally at peace, and Dr. Hiriluk’s cherry blossom potion is released across the island—lighting up the sky.

The cutest talking reindeer you’ve ever seen is officially the crew’s doctor, and joins them aboard The Going Merry as they continue their adventures on the Grand Line in search of The One Piece.

A new story arc is incoming: the Straw Hats will reach Alabasta and help Princess Vivi save her kingdom from Baroque Works’ sinister plan to insight a civil war. Of course, Smoker and Tashigi are hot on their trail.
Mr 0’s Identity Is Revealed
Speaking of Baroque Works’ sinister plan, it’s helmed by Mr. 0, whose identity is revealed in the last moments of the season as he plots something called “Operation Utopia.” Turns out Mr. 0 is none other than Sir Crocodile, an infamous Warlord who wants The One Piece all for himself.
