Is Sir Crocodile already stepping out of the shadows in season 2?
This inevitably means:Season 2 will at least prepare for the appearance of Sir Crocodile and, of course, the big Alabasta arc. The first season already laid the foundation for this when Mr. 7 (Ben Kgosimore) unsuccessfully tried to recruit Zorro (Mackenyu) for Baroque Works.
There’s also a persistent fan theorythat Crocodile was seen for a brief moment long ago. Whether the boss of Baroque Works and thus Mr. 0 will actually appear in season 2 of One Piece is currently unknown. It’s quite possible that Netflix will save his big debut for Season 3, but we’ll at leastget a teaser like the one for Captain Smoker
When season 2 of One Piece will start on Netflix is currently unknown.Shooting is still scheduled to take place in 2024, so a release in late 2025 to early 2026 would be quite conceivable.
