Where They Are Now is a special mini-series published on the cover pages of each One Piece chapter. It is split into two parts by a cover story, and each part depicts the people of Skypiea (part 1) and Water 7 (part 2) after the departure of the Straw Hats from their respective homes.

It is similar to the Short-Term Focused Cover Page Serials, though more abridgred and lacking a narrative. Each page is labelled as a "shot" (SHOT（ショット）, Shotto^?).

Trivia

Iceburg holding auditions for a new secretary in the newspaper.

• Both parts were followed by a cover story 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.
