One Piece season 2 is finally here, and this season of the show brings forth something distinct from the first season: a single powerful villain. While the first season focused largely on a variety of distinct battles, One Piece season 2 features Mr. 0, aka Crocodile, as the primary villain.
So, who is Mr. 0 in One Piece? Here is a detailed breakdown.
Who is One Piece Season 2’s villain, Crocodile aka Mr. 0?
The second season of One Piece hints at Mr. 0 from the start, but it is not until the fifth episode that the season’s big bad is revealed. Played by Joe Manganiello, the fifth episode does not immediately reveal the villain but gives a glimpse at his abilities.
The subsequent episodes delve deeper into the character, who looks as intimidating as he sounds.
“Desert King” Sir Crocodile, also known as Mr. 0, is the head of the mysterious crime syndicate Baroque Works. One of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, Mr. 0, is a formidable villain who is powerful, commanding, and has a mission that poses a great threat.
Crocodile maintains a public facade, helping both the people of the Arabasta Kingdom and the Marines, while using his people to weaken Arabasta for conquest.
By the end of season 2, Mr. 0 announces his plans for Operation Utopia, which is designed to take over the kingdom of Arabasta. This means that the third season will delve into this saga, and viewers will get a better glimpse at Mr. 0.
Apart from his physical strength, Mr. 0 possesses the Logia-type Sand-Sand Fruit, which allows him to create, control, and transform into sand at will. His powers make him an extremely difficult adversary. There would be much more of him in the coming season.
All the episodes of One Piece season 2 are streaming on Netflix.
