New GPO Update: Balancing Tweaks, Unveiling Turtleback

The popular Roblox pirate adventure, Grand Piece Online, has launched its February mini-update. This update introduces a new island, the Kira fruit, and various balance adjustments.

The new island, Turtleback Cave, located north of Rose Kingdom in the Second Sea, features a new boss, Juzo the Diamondback. Defeating Juzo rewards players with the Turtleback Armor and Helmet, with a 5% chance to drop the Kira fruit and a smaller chance to obtain a Mythical Fruit Chest. Juzo respawns every 15 minutes. A new player list displaying crew and player names has also been added.

Crew updates include five new shop items, an expansion of crew shop slots from four to eight, increased mythical fruit chances in the shop, and the ability to purchase current and past Battle Pass outfits.

Significant balance changes have been implemented. Arena Storm has been replaced with a countdown system, determining winners based on damage dealt and remaining stocks (each stock equals 10,000 damage). Numerous fruits and fighting styles have received adjustments, aiming for a more balanced gameplay experience. These include changes to Tori, Pteranodon, Buddha, Venom, Yuki, Gold, Zushi, Mochi V2, Snowcap Scepter, Inferno Rocket Blade, Abyssal Karate, and 3 Sword Style. Specific changes are detailed in the patch notes below.

While this update is considered a "mini-update," it demonstrates the ongoing development and support for Grand Piece Online, which initially launched in 2018. Following the January 17th update focusing on water and travel mechanics, players eagerly anticipate the next major content drop.
