One Piece: Into the Grand Line will be making its debut with Netflix this March, and the second season of the live-action series will be introducing the deadly Baroque Works group as the first major set of antagonists for Luffy and the Straw Hats in the Grand Line.

One Piece: Into the Grand Line will be picking up right from where the first season left off as it adapts the Loguetown, Reverse Mountain, Whiskey Peak, Little Garden, and Drum Island arcs of Eiichiro Oda’s original manga series. This first wave of arcs forms the first half of the greater Alabasta saga of the series, and at the center of it all is their leader, Mr. 0. Known by his real name of Sir Crocodile, Joe Manganiello will be bringing the famous villain to life in the new season. But it’s yet to be made clear how much he’ll actually be around.

The first look at his silhouette here teases how his shadow will loom everything we see here, but fans of the original know he plays a much larger role in what’s coming next. A third season of the series is now in production for the remainder of the Alabasta saga, and Manganiello will have a more regular role there. With how much the live-action series changes everything from the original, we could be seeing much more of Crocodile than fans might expect in this new season.
