During a later scene, Netflix’sOne Piecereveals Vice-Admiral Garp has been investigating Baroque Works activity in East Blue.

Baroque Works will change that inOne Pieceseason 2.

That isn’t to say every single villain inOne Pieceseason 2 will be employed by Baroque Works.

However, Baroque Works will still provide the constant, long-term thread thatOne Piecehas thus far lacked.

For starters, the new villains will trigger an influx ofDevil Fruit powersinto live-action.

Of Luffy’s season 1 antagonists, only Buggy the Clown has eaten one ofOne Piece’s infamous fruits.

This alone will makeOne Pieceseason 2 a very different visual spectacle.

Baroque Works is also directly responsible for introducing major new allies to the Straw Hat Pirates.

That said, Baroque Works' presence on the show will continue past season 2.
