One Piece's world explained in full.
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT The world of One Piece is immensely vast, and beginning that voyage can seem daunting - these are the essentials worth knowing before hitting play on Netflix's live-action One Piece adaptation. With over 1000 chapters of manga and 1000 episodes of anime released since the franchise began in 1997, Eiichiro Oda's One Piece is not a light undertaking.
Thanks to the Red Line and the Grand Line, passing freely between all four oceans is virtually impossible. Only a lucky few with the correct equipment and sailing expertise can move from one ocean to the next. The first step of Luffy's journey in Netflix's One Piece involves crossing from East Blue into the Grand Line.
Pirates In One Piece Predictably, the One Piece world is brimming with pirates. Piracy began a long time before Luffy set sail, but became considerably more prevalent thanks to the original Pirate King, Gold Roger.
The Straw Hat roster grows larger still, as Luffy's crew also contains two honorary members in Princess Vivi and Yamato, who are considered Straw Hats, but do not currently travel on the ship. Later in the One Piece story, the Straw Hats expand from a crew into a fully-fledged fleet, as other pirate captains pledge their allegiance to Luffy and fly his flag above their own.
Although the Gorosei were considered the pinnacle of political power for a long time, the One Piece anime and manga has since revealed an ominous higher power that even the Five Elders bow to. It seems unlikely that this figure will ever appear in Netflix's One Piece. Even so, Eiichiro Oda has clearly positioned them as the supreme ruler in his fictional world.
