On September 21, 2026, we got the titles for One Piece live-action Season 3: “The Battle of Alabasta”

Episode 1: Where There’s Smoke

Episode 2: Home Fires Burning

Episode 3: Cellmateys

Episode 4: Dance Dance Powder Revolution

Episode 5: Battle Royal

Episode 6: Bet Your Life

Episode 7: X Marks the Spot

Episode 8: The Final Countdown

These episode titles confirm that Season 3 will strictly cover the Alabasta Arc (Chapters 155 to 217 or Episodes 92 to 130), close to the same pacing as Season 2 and with less additional characters or characters being removed.

Episode 1 would introduce all of Baroque Works, especially Mr. 2, who could encounter the Straw Hats here before Luffy’s encounter with Smoker and possibly the reunion with Ace in Nanahona.

The title emphasizing on Smoker is a good indicator Smoker could be more prominent here than in the original canon as although he was crucial as a pursuer of both the Straw Hats and Crocodile, it did not come close to what Season 2 did, as it set up the progression of Smoker’s journey into Alabasta and the hint from Vice Admiral Monkey D. Garp that the Marines had suspicions regarding Crocodile.

Episode 2 would follow through with Ace, maybe add more details, as well as Luffy’s scene of punching Vivi (who only wants to carry the burden of stopping the civil war by herself), which would be an interesting scene to show in the current modern day and potentially an opportunity to organically integrate friendly Pirates willing to help Vivi in her plan to save her country.

Episode 3 brings Luffy to Rainbase, where they get captured and subsequently released by Mr. Prince, aka Sanji.

In the original manga, Mr. Prince was a brief nickname Sanji gave himself during the same event as a way to divert Crocodile’s attention.

The live-action improved on that scene by having Sanji identify himself as Mr. Prince much earlier, to show that Crocodile had a threat to think about, a threat with a name.

Episode 4 will show the start of the Battle of Alabasta between the Rebels and Royal Army, with Baroque Works in both sides and Mr. 2 disguised as the King.

Episodes 5 and 6 should see the different battles, as well as Round 2 of Luffy vs Crocodile.

Episode 7 reveals the twist, of the Straw Hats marking themselves with an X to identify themselves, which was Zoro’s idea, after their encounter with Mr. 2, meaning this will show the battles against the top agents: Mr. 2 vs Sanji, Mr. 1 vs Zoro and Miss Doublefinger vs Nami.

Episode 8 will show the third and final battle with Crocodile in the Tomb of the Kings, where the series’ first-ever shown Poneglyph is, as well as the final countdown to the last bomb Crocodile launched, ending on Robin joining the crew.

There is still no confirmed release date for Season 3 other than being set for 2027.

The previous season aired on March 10, 2026, meaning Season 3 could fall around March as well.

The season finished production as of June 30th.
