Talk about One Piece: Stampedethe anime’s editors revealed:
“The original version of the film is very different from the version we know today. Initially, the focus will be on Ace’s unexplored love story. After the movie Gold, it was clear that Oda was overloaded, having to divide his time between manga and movies. Thus, Oda’s involvement in Stampede was minimized, serving mainly as author and supervisor.

Later, the idea was revised, especially since this is the 20th anniversary of the series.”
