As the logline says:

“a rebellion threatens to tear the nation apart, fuelled in secret by one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, the ruthless Sir Crocodile, and his underground syndicate Baroque Works, who seek to conquer Alabasta for themselves. In a season defined by unbreakable bonds and impossible choices, the Straw Hats must face a brewing civil war and a powerful warlord to save Vivi’s kingdom before it crumbles into the sand.” 

The press release has full cast details, some photos from the Cape Town shoot and a reminder we can see the new season in 2027. We’ll keep you posted.
