Sea 3 and Shanks Gatekeeper

Sea 3 is locked behind a solo fight against Red Emperor Shanks. The Gatekeeper NPC triggers a cutscene and transports you into an arena where teammates cannot help. Defeating Shanks permanently unlocks Sea 3 travel. Read our Shanks boss guide and Sea 3 unlock walkthrough before accepting the challenge at low health.

Okuchi Mythical Fruit

Okuchi is Update 1's headline fruit — freeze abilities, melee combos, and a transformation with enhanced moves like Blistering Fury and Pursuing Serpent. See our Okuchi fruit guide and updated fruit tier list.

3 Sword Style

Unlock 3SS V1 by maxing three prerequisite swords at the Rock Shrine, or farm the 3SS Boss in Sea 2 for a rare drop. Upgrade to V2 at Doran the Forge with Ancient Blade Relics. Full steps on our 3 Sword Style page.

Storage Systems

Race Storage saves your current race while you spin for better rolls — up to five slots at 1,000 Gems each. Fruit Storage lets you bank valuable fruits instead of eating or dropping them. Details in our Race & Fruit Storage guide.

Update 1 Codes

Redeem launch codes immediately: OKUCHI (5 Race Spins), PATCH, HAZESEAS2026, RELEASE, FREECASH, and FREEGEMS. Full list on active codes. Haze Seas launch codes had not expired as of early July 2026 — legacy Haze Piece codes remain in our expired archive only.
