'One Piece' Episode 783: Key Visual Art, Voice Actors for Sanji's Siblings Revealed
The Japanese anime series "One Piece" is at the threshold of the highly anticipated Whole Cake Island Arc. And now that the Sanji Retrieval Team is once again out of food, will their hunger drive them much sooner to the island or will their growling stomachs sidetrack them for the second time?
Luffy and his crew may have managed to leave Fron Island will all their limbs intact and much of the Marine Base's food ration in hand, but leaving Pedro and Pekoms on the ship for hours with not a single crumb to eat ended up working to the crew's disadvantage. The two Minks along with the rest of the crew sat down and feasted on their loot, much to Nami's chagrin. Can the Sanji Retrieval Team survive long enough to get to Whole Cake Island?
The trailer for the next episode titled "Sanji's Homecoming — Into Big Mom's Territory!" shows a brief glimpse at a gaunt-looking Luffy catching what looks to be an enormous fish, which should be enough to tide them over for days; that is, if he successfully reels it in.
