Weirdly specific ask, but I get it! There's something fascinating about that kind of flamboyant, performative, and lawless setting. Your best starting point is definitely the shonen manga and anime that originated the concept, 'One Piece'. The Amazon Lily and Impel Down arcs are the primary sources for Newkama Land aesthetics and culture.
For actual novels that capture a similar vibe, you'll need to look at LitRPG or cultivation novels with 'sect' settings that have a strong, eccentric cultural identity. I'd suggest browsing Royal Road for stories with tags like 'eccentric faction', 'unorthodox sect', or 'cultural clash'. 'Beware of Chicken' has a bit of this feel, though it's more pastoral. The genre is niche enough that you're hunting for mood matches rather than direct copies.
Honestly, you might have more luck with fanfiction set within that 'One Piece' locale, exploring side characters or original stories there. AO3 has a decent amount if you filter by the Impel Down tag and look for longer works.

One of the more fascinating layers in a novel like 'One Piece' is how a setting like the Kambakka Kingdom—Newkama Land—forces a character to confront parts of themselves they've either suppressed or never acknowledged. For someone like Sanji, whose entire identity and fighting style are built on a rigid, self-imposed code of chivalry, being tossed into a place that actively mocks and dismantles that code is pure narrative gold. It's not just about the gags or the shock value of the okama; it's a crucible.
Sanji's time there isn't just training. He's psychologically trapped. His deepest aversion is weaponized as his only path to survival and growth. The result is a kind of fractured development. He emerges stronger, yes, but also carrying the ironic weight of having his greatest weakness become the source of his new power. That dissonance adds so much texture to him post-timeskip. He's still the lovesick cook, but there's a new, grudging resilience woven in, born from pure, unadulterated torment. It's hilarious on the surface, but genuinely brutal character work underneath.

The whole concept of a 'Newkama Land' makes me think of that specific archetype in fantasy or adventure series where the heroes stumble into a hidden, often taboo, sanctuary. I'm leaning towards a mashup of the 'safe haven for outcasts' trope with a dash of transformative or gender-bending elements, borrowing from the 'Okama' idea you see in Japanese media. It usually isn't a peaceful retreat; it's a society that flips the script of the outside world, challenging rigid norms. I'm picturing a place introduced mid-series, maybe after a prison break or a shipwreck, where the crew is desperate and finds refuge with people they initially misunderstand.
The storyline potential is huge. It's less about a grand battle and more about a character study—outsiders forced to confront their prejudices, maybe even undergoing a temporary physical or social change themselves to blend in. The tension comes from whether this land is a true utopia or has its own darker undercurrents. The resolution often involves the main characters leaving with a new perspective, and sometimes an ally from Newkama joins their quest. It's a narrative pitstop that can be surprisingly profound.

Newkama Land, for those who don't know, is from 'One Piece.' It's this wild, gender-bending island in the series run by drag queens and okamas. The influence on character roles is honestly pretty fascinating because it's not just a one-note joke. It creates these spaces where characters who don't fit traditional masculine or feminine archetypes have agency and power.
Take Emporio Ivankov. They’re a revolutionary commander, a doctor, and a leader—their identity is central to their role, not a side characteristic. It flips the script on what a 'strong' character looks like. You get this narrative where queerness isn't just tolerated but is a source of literal world-altering power (the Hormone-Hormone Fruit). In fanfic or original fiction, that idea can bleed into creating societies where gender roles are completely reimagined, letting authors play with character dynamics outside of heteronormative expectations.
For romance subplots especially, it opens up avenues for exploring fluidity in relationships without the story needing to make it a 'problem' to be solved. The setting itself becomes a character that challenges protagonists' preconceptions.
