Trivia

Iceburg holding auditions for a new secretary in the newspaper

• At 7 installments, this is the shortest mini-arc so far.
• This is the first and so far only mini-arc to be in two parts divided by another mini-arc. The first part featured characters from the Skypiea Arc and the second featured characters from the Water 7 Arc.
• Both parts were followed by a mini-arc starring the antagonists of their respective history arcs, a mini-arc with Enel in the case of Skypiea and a mini-arc with the CP9 in the case of Water 7.
• In Episode 381, Iceburg can be seen holding auditions for a new secretary in the newspaper Crocus is reading. The photos used for the front page depicting his auditions are the same as the cover chapters from this mini-series.
