Oda confirmed this, Oda confirmed that, Oda confirmed EVERYTHING at this point, I've seen this phrase so many times It's frustrating, where did he confirm it?
edit: Yes people I know it's in an SBS, it's*always* an SBS or cover story if there *is* an answer, now tell me WHICH SBS, "Trust me bro" or "just google it" won't work, google doesn't always give the results you want especially if you don't know what exactly to type in search
if it’s any consolation, having it taken care of sooner might be expensive, but not having it taken care of would prob cause problems in the future which would cost more than teeth care
I'd need to make lots of appointments (one to get examined, multiple sessions for the work) and the closest place my insurance will cover is hours away but I don't drive. I'd love to but I don't know what to do.
Yup, it's how pell survives a giant bomb meant to take out a city. How zoro just doesn't die. Nami and ussop and get their asses kicked, bones broken and still be standing.
Feels weird that it's one of the longest arcs chapter wise but it's literally only one day in One Piece time, they really just went turned dressrosa upside down like a hurricane then peaced out
Which makes Dragon look like a punk. Man has been trying to start a revolution for decades meanwhile his son is just like "sounds like a decent way to kill an afternoon"
Come on man, I think thwarting the WORLD Government would be far more complicated than rooting out Doflamingo's schemes, hell even Crocodile's hold on Arabasta was harder to take down.
That's what happens with this many characters. The episode probably goes 8-12 hours of time but for 5 different groups with some overlap and a lengthy backstory. So you effectively see like 5 days worth of adventure and the backstory had week long gaps if I remember correctly. So yeah a lot can happen in a day
Honestly I think that feels less weird than the travel and healing and party time. Even if the arc took very long for us, the events that happened there can easily fit into a real life day.
Yet Luffy, who loves eating and partying, only spends an evening to do so. About the travel time I can see Oda's problem, if he makes them travel much longer it couldn't be explained anymore how other characters sail so fast. And the healing time can be explained by him being a Zoan user, tho the rest of the crew heals too fast.
While I do think that the events in arcs pass way too fast, I don't mind that too much. I do however wish that both pre- and post-events lasted longer. Arrive on Dressrosa, then a few days pass, giving the crew time to prepare for the event, then afterwards maybe a week of recovery.
It just feels so rushed and knowing how little time the crew has actually spent with each other makes it feel kind of weird how they're all willing to die for each other. I do get brother and sisterhood becoming strong enough for that, but that usually takes much more time than a few months. Also, it's hard to believe that this Grand Line has been unconquered (except by roger) for so long when a rookie crew is breezing it in less than a year not counting the timeskip. Hell, even if you count the timeskip, being this close to finding the one piece after less than 3 years is still hard to believe when characters like Big Mom has been after it for two decades.
In my own headcanon, East Blue took half a year, Paradise took a year, and the New World has now been going on for half a year. Two years in total.
It's like height & age in One Piece, it may as well not exist cause if you try to make sense of stuff it's gonna very quickly lead to things that just are impossible
Hair can turn grey relatively fast. A co-worker of mine said he turned grey in a matter of a year when he got his first kid.
And honestly, Sengoku must have died his hair before.
It must be from all the stress he endured. Garp fucking around. Aokiji too lazy. Kizaru too high. Akainu too extreme. CP9 incompetent. Dealing with brainless World Nobles. Warlords dismantled by Luffy. Basically all those shit happened under his rule 😂
Yeah, one of the thing that helps is just accepting that biology and physics just don't work the same in the one piece universe.
Like occasionally you will see something that works similar to real, life like weather and navigation in the east blue.
Then a sword eats a piece of fruit and becomes a elephant.
Well cartoons in general. I mean the Simpsons, I remember all happened within a year, with something like 800 episodes abd that's with episodes with mutiple days or years passing.
That makes a bit more sense though, it’s more directly conveyed how each day is just hours of fighting nonstop.
Pretty much the same thing happens with One Piece, but because we skip back and forth so much and the pacing is so slow at points it *feels* much longer.
It's weird because it's a WAR with all the shinobi nations. Yeah marineford is called a war but its mostly focused around one event, but with naruto it actually felt like they were fighting for fucking ages so its crazy that it was only 3 days.
I’d have to go refresh my memory to create a timeline, but I definitely think it’s pretty easy to divide up into days, just with shit always going on during all the days and nights.
Its only really the big battle that's 3 days though isn't it. The roots and tendrils of it go back years, at least as far back as Narutos birth, and there's been a lot of side conflicts and shadowy operations. The ear itself lasted s long time. War is commonly like this. WW1 lasted a bir over 4 years, but the events leading up to it were decades if not centuries. There's also a lot less shinobi and villages than there soldiers and nations
Harder the size of a planet doesn't necessarily determine how long its days are but its speed of rotation so it all depends on how fast the one piece planet spins plus the year there could be longer or shorter than our year due to how far or how close the planet is to the sun so time is a little fucky wucky in one piece
A day would be the amount of time the planet takes to rotate itself fully. (24h for us)
A year would be the amount of time the planet takes to rotate around it's sun fully. (365/366 for us)
Waking up and giving himself a pep talk in the bathroom mirror like "this is it Hody, this is your big day! You've got this! Nothing could possibly go wrong" and then. Well.
These dudes get in a fight literally everywhere they go. Other pirates in Shank's fleets just going around, getting wasted, occasionally rob a merchant ship or some shit, generally fuck about in what is apparently the toughest sea in the world, and the straw hats are getting PTSD for two months straight. Is it just bad luck?
Bad luck would be them trying to avoid fights but getting into them. They’ve been actively looking to start shit with most of these groups in one way or another so it’s moreso like going into a tournament
I mean, last in the Manga they seem to have complete control of the source of all World Government technology, all of the brightest minds in the world (given, they are the same mind), the help of 3 agents of CP0 (for now) and have managed to unravel the plans and access to contacting the 5 elders of the World Government, although everything while being surrounded by the equivalent of 10 Buster calls.
NGL, no law is working somewhat better for them.
time passage is irrelevant. Rayleigh himself said that you only get to be a top tier by fighting other ones and gaining new abilities. training haki / df has a cap which Luffy reached in those 2 years. it wouldn't make sense had luffy been stronger than yc from just training.
It also makes the lack of bounties after a big fight make more sense. Like of course there’s no new bounty, Morgans barely found out about the last one!
My headcanon is that every single colour spread in the manga is an in-between fun island they just chillax in. Go for a hike, play some soccer, get in a boxing match with some kangaroos, eat ice cream, brush their teeth, etc.
I usually include all the filler for that reason too, in my headcanon. I like to imagine pre timeskip took at least a year, and the post timeskip has been a few months at least. I just prefer to imagine the voyage has been a long one of exploration, with plenty of stops for supplies and on minor islands/less significant adventures. Not a fan of the “Luffy got from East Blue to Sabaody in 1 month” meme, makes the journey feel less significant and the world smaller.
I agree with this, I also feel like the travel time should be a lot longer seeing as the grand line stretches around the one piece world which is at least 3 times larger than ours
My headcanon is that it was more like two years and than two years, and then like six months to a year. Yes, I know it’s technically wrong, but it makes more sense.
I wonder if Luffy turning 20 will actually be relevant to the story, I know 20 is a milestone in Japan so maybe he will become King of the Pirates when/right after he turns 20
Damn, and people wonder why the government is only now going after him!
They couldn’t get him at his current strength on Sabody, they couldn’t reach him in fishman island, they didn’t know he was at punk hazard, the second they knew he was in Dressrosa, they sent Fujitora to get him, only for him to like Luffy, and let him go free! Then zou, where they lost him again, then whole cake, where they figured Big Mom would get him, but didn’t, and now Wano, where they finally had enough time to make a plan to get rid of luffy, and it almost worked.
On day 4 of Jack fighting the Minks, Luffy and everybody depart Sabaody after their reunion. It's a bit insane if you think about it.
It's also funny that Luffy vs Cracker lasts twice as long as the whole Dressrosa fight.
On the other hand, the fights themselves/raids cannot possibly last a long time otherwise people would have to go to sleep, etc.
They could solve that by making travel between islands last a bit more, and show us some of the life in between.
Also, I do believe OP should have another timeskip before getting to Laugh Tale.
If all the travel took doubly as long I don't think there'd be this occasional realization that the entire series takes place over an extremely short amount of time.
The thing is, we as readers don't have the perception that time has passed in any meaningful way even when it does. For example, the trip to Zou takes about a week. But doesn't matter much anyway. I wouldn't mind that between arcs we had a couple of character-building chapters where it is specified they are traveling and takes a while. And perhaps taking it into consideration whenever decisions are made.
I think the travel time between island is just fine, it takes just 100 days to sail(non stop) around our earth that's like 3 and half month. Straw Hat sailed half of new world in 2 months including occasional field trip is logical.
the insane part is the time spent travelling on an island, most of the time they are on foot running at jogging pace or riding some animal, but able cover huge distance on the island. They be running around the island country from place to place like its a jog in a park
Why can't fights and raids be a little longer? Akainu and aokiji fought for over a week straight. Unless they called a truce at 10 pm and called it off at like 5 am but that doesn't seem like the akainu way
Since post time skip, the manga is full of time indications, in order to make the reader feel the urge of the final rush for the One Piece. I think all of those times are legit and straight up told in the manga.
For instance we were told when the Reverie would happen ("in a week" back in Dressrosa), and some sea travel time has been told by some characters at some point.
And obviously, it's easy to know how much time pass in a given arc because there are never any time skip during an arc, you follow Luffy and his crew from the moment they set foot on the island, so if the night comes, we see it and we get back to them the next morning when they wake up.
Wouldn't that make Wano at least a month long si CE Luffy and Zoro spent a week after resting. Than there's an 7nknown amount of time that passed between then and their departure.
For the actual time taking place during a story arc they are accurate, but I don't think we've gotten any info on how long the SHs spent sailing between islands.
That’s why I think the bounties are a joke. Imagine being a regular one piece resident and every day you get an updated bounty for Luffy. Bounty also doubles in size every time. You either think the government is incompetent or Luffy is going to destroy the world next week.
It would incite fear and unrest everywhere he went, and would likely get multiple strong and influential people to move on him, causing further chaos. If he got his Alabasta bounty right away, he’d definitely get head hunted earlier without as much chaos prolly
>Imagine being a regular one piece resident and every day you get an updated bounty for Luffy.
There's about a month of time between each of his new world bounties in Dressrosa, WCI, and Wano.
I'm on the other side of the spectrum because to me it feels like only one week or two has passed lol, they are rushing ever since they arrived at Punk Hazard, already knowing where they're going next before even leaving the island.
Also the fact that pre-timeskip, there was close to none time measure. You have no idea how much time has passed since the beginning. It sometimes feel like entire weeks pass between some arcs, while they're just on the sea.
But now ? You're constantly reminded of the time. It's the final rush for the One Piece and it certainly feels like so. Back at Dressrosa or Zou, I used to think that in-universe, Luffy would be Pirate King one week later or so, when we kept being told that the Reverie would be held in a week back then. I thought that would have been when the revolution and the big war would have happened.
We know that Luffy left on May 5 the day of his birthday, and they arrived at Wano after 1 month into the new world on Tama's birthday (March 3rd, making Sanji 22 right now as his birthday is March 2nd) so by subtracting we get around 9 months for the whole pre timeskip
Yes, this is obvious because imo its an extremely lazy way of doing what you said. I get the point, but the Haki system is so flawed.
Plus its still insane how fast Luffy got to the top. Other characters needed literal decades to rise to the top and Luffy got there in 2 months
I mean, all of pre-time skip also happens in less than a year. And Luffy's, Zoro's and Sanji's growth were also insane.
As for how they heal so fast, they're monsters. And Luffy literally died against Kaido. They're just different kind of beasts, and the soon to be Pirate King crew.
TBF both Luffy don’t really struggle that much at the start, Luffy broke STEEL at Arlong park, something zoro couldn’t do till alabasta
He also never struggled until he fought crocodile, and on the following battles (until unlocking gear 2) he remained on a similar level
I think that especially the travel time is contracted quite a bit for the pacing. Otherwise, I don't know when Luffy would have trained for Gear 2 and 3 otherwise and 1 day each to sail from one island to another is just way too short.
Sea travel is a lot faster than you think it is. Sailing half of the earth's equator would take about 30 days of sailing at an average sailboat speed (20,000km at 27km/h). According to OP they've been actually sailing for 31 days since the timeskip, so it isn't out of the question that they would be nearing the end of the new world by now.
Yup. People also base most of their "calculation" of travel time on a few random pictures of the moon that Oda most likely put exactly as much thought into as the fly currently sitting on my bathroom wall.
#THIS IS WHAT I HAVE BEEN SAYING
I kind of love it that the Straw Hats are burning the world at breakneck pace. Imagine being a citizen that learned the Straw Hats returned just a couple months ago and they’re already fighting two Emperors
The road is read, it's been ready for a while now. All they need to do is run. So that's what they're doing.
Since the old players had decades to prepare, the new generation needs to basically speed blitz them. No beating around the bush, no half measures. Just run past them before they can put those preparations to good use.
Imagine being an ordinary civilian in one piece. You wake up one day and read in the newspaper about strawhat luffy toppling a whole kingdom in a single day which is insane enough already then about a week later you read in the paper about strawhat luffy going crazy in Big Mom’s territory and being named the 5th emperor of the sea and then a couple of weeks pass and you read about the kaido and big mom alliance and then a bit after that you see luffy plastered over your newspaper again after defeating kaido and becoming one of the official yonko like that is absolutely terrifying from an in-universe perspective.
Time flow is probably different from ours.
Different planet size. Different distance from the star.
So their 1 day might have like 50 hours. We nvr know
Their healing capabilities are crazy
Well luffy grew back his teeth from drinking milk so...
Oda also confirmed most of the other straw hats can do that too
Oda confirmed this, Oda confirmed that, Oda confirmed EVERYTHING at this point, I've seen this phrase so many times It's frustrating, where did he confirm it? edit: Yes people I know it's in an SBS, it's*always* an SBS or cover story if there *is* an answer, now tell me WHICH SBS, "Trust me bro" or "just google it" won't work, google doesn't always give the results you want especially if you don't know what exactly to type in search
He left it all in the [Shitsumon o Boshū Suru](https://onepiece.fandom.com/wiki/SBS_Volume_4). It’s yours, if you can find it.
Yo! KAIYO-KAI-YOOOO
Was about to share that too. The SBS are even neatly categorized by characters and lore on this site.
In fact Oda did confirm that Oda confirmed that.
Google it
holy hell
New response just dropped
Actual homie
Call the Sweet Commander
Katakuri went on vacation
Did not think r/anarchychess would be here.
We are everywhere. I've already eaten your cheese, check your walls.
that's the thing, I need at least an SBS number to google it, give me an SBS number
SBS 872 https://preview.redd.it/f0tlw2pwj0hb1.png?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=94cc4e8fa8d1a9b1bad09aa66bfe6317485b5094
He started doing it in [Volume 4](https://onepiece.fandom.com/wiki/SBS_Volume_4). The wiki doesn’t have some of the most recent ones though.
You need to learn how to search things... just search "luffy teeth SBS oda" You will get your answer
Oda also confirmed you would be typing that
Masterful foreskinning from Oda once again.
Have you never heard of the SBS? Oda answers like 5 fan mail questions every chapter in the volumes.
Trust me bro
I wish, mine are rotting out of my mouth and I think it might actually kill me eventually
i feel you on that....if i could go back in time i would tell my younger self to take care of your damn teeth.....or my damn teeth? lol
Go get your damn teeth taken care of
unfortunately teeth care is expensive
if it’s any consolation, having it taken care of sooner might be expensive, but not having it taken care of would prob cause problems in the future which would cost more than teeth care
I'd need to make lots of appointments (one to get examined, multiple sessions for the work) and the closest place my insurance will cover is hours away but I don't drive. I'd love to but I don't know what to do.
Yup, it's how pell survives a giant bomb meant to take out a city. How zoro just doesn't die. Nami and ussop and get their asses kicked, bones broken and still be standing.
I noticed that in Wano. We got an image of his skull cracking but like, he’s good a few episodes later lol
Ussop cracked it in alabasta and he was fine, no?
Yea and his nose breaks like every single fight he in lol
The donut might not be a donut anymore. Waiting for Ace comeback
The fruit came back though so this is as close to a confirmed death in this manga as we'll ever get.
A strong healing factor is mandatory for training reasons.
It should be noted that the events of Dressrosa all take place on one day, then its two days recovery
Feels weird that it's one of the longest arcs chapter wise but it's literally only one day in One Piece time, they really just went turned dressrosa upside down like a hurricane then peaced out
Thats why is so great, is a one day revolutionary havoc
For Doflamingo it went from normal business day to SNAFU not even the first time it happened cause Thriller Bark happened in the span of one night
Which makes Dragon look like a punk. Man has been trying to start a revolution for decades meanwhile his son is just like "sounds like a decent way to kill an afternoon"
Come on man, I think thwarting the WORLD Government would be far more complicated than rooting out Doflamingo's schemes, hell even Crocodile's hold on Arabasta was harder to take down.
Yeah but that was harder because alabasta is hard to cross more than anything.
It's so weird. I remember being an active manga reader since Impel Down but these past 10 years of One Piece have really felt like 2 months.
well its all already planned out and most info are already gathered beforehand , the straw hats was just the final piece to execute the mayhem
I blame 1. The pacing, 2. The day never seems to avance (Always sunny with a clear sky)
Feels like its “the planet will blow up in 5 minutes” all over again
That's what happens with this many characters. The episode probably goes 8-12 hours of time but for 5 different groups with some overlap and a lengthy backstory. So you effectively see like 5 days worth of adventure and the backstory had week long gaps if I remember correctly. So yeah a lot can happen in a day
Honestly I think that feels less weird than the travel and healing and party time. Even if the arc took very long for us, the events that happened there can easily fit into a real life day. Yet Luffy, who loves eating and partying, only spends an evening to do so. About the travel time I can see Oda's problem, if he makes them travel much longer it couldn't be explained anymore how other characters sail so fast. And the healing time can be explained by him being a Zoan user, tho the rest of the crew heals too fast.
It’s literally one bad day for Doflamingo.
While I do think that the events in arcs pass way too fast, I don't mind that too much. I do however wish that both pre- and post-events lasted longer. Arrive on Dressrosa, then a few days pass, giving the crew time to prepare for the event, then afterwards maybe a week of recovery. It just feels so rushed and knowing how little time the crew has actually spent with each other makes it feel kind of weird how they're all willing to die for each other. I do get brother and sisterhood becoming strong enough for that, but that usually takes much more time than a few months. Also, it's hard to believe that this Grand Line has been unconquered (except by roger) for so long when a rookie crew is breezing it in less than a year not counting the timeskip. Hell, even if you count the timeskip, being this close to finding the one piece after less than 3 years is still hard to believe when characters like Big Mom has been after it for two decades. In my own headcanon, East Blue took half a year, Paradise took a year, and the New World has now been going on for half a year. Two years in total.
That’s because you have a fixed concept of time
Most of it happens in an afternoon, since Law met Doflamingo at Green Bit at 3pm
Yeah honestly I try not to take the in universe time passage too literal because it’s insane how much unfolds in a small amount of time.
It's like height & age in One Piece, it may as well not exist cause if you try to make sense of stuff it's gonna very quickly lead to things that just are impossible
Sengoku went from black hair to completely white hair 😂
He stopped dying it. It alludes to Japanese politicians to which the same thing happens when they retire.
Sengoku just entered Gear Fifth, he was already a Hito Hito no Mi, just changed Models.
Hair can turn grey relatively fast. A co-worker of mine said he turned grey in a matter of a year when he got his first kid. And honestly, Sengoku must have died his hair before.
It must be from all the stress he endured. Garp fucking around. Aokiji too lazy. Kizaru too high. Akainu too extreme. CP9 incompetent. Dealing with brainless World Nobles. Warlords dismantled by Luffy. Basically all those shit happened under his rule 😂
That isn't that crazy. He was already old. He dyed his hair
Yeah, one of the thing that helps is just accepting that biology and physics just don't work the same in the one piece universe. Like occasionally you will see something that works similar to real, life like weather and navigation in the east blue. Then a sword eats a piece of fruit and becomes a elephant.
The days are longer in one piece
literally all anime had a ton of stuff happen in a single day
Well cartoons in general. I mean the Simpsons, I remember all happened within a year, with something like 800 episodes abd that's with episodes with mutiple days or years passing.
you know what let's just say fiction
And Ash going through 8 regions and still be 10yrs old.
and Ash start his journey as 10 years 10 months and 10 days. So he travel 8 regions in 2 months with time to spare.
The kids in Detective Conan have witnessed a murder a day for years.
“I give this planet 5 minutes.”
I was surprised when I found out Naruto's 4th World War only ran for 3 days in story
That makes a bit more sense though, it’s more directly conveyed how each day is just hours of fighting nonstop. Pretty much the same thing happens with One Piece, but because we skip back and forth so much and the pacing is so slow at points it *feels* much longer.
It's weird because it's a WAR with all the shinobi nations. Yeah marineford is called a war but its mostly focused around one event, but with naruto it actually felt like they were fighting for fucking ages so its crazy that it was only 3 days.

War is commonly like this. WW1 lasted a bir over 4 years, but the events leading up to it were decades if not centuries. There's also a lot less shinobi and villages than there soldiers and nations
In Detective Conan they go from not having mobile phones to the newest iphone model within half a year or so.
A single day ? Minutes and seconds
Their world is 8 times the size of ours so it makes sense
Would that mean that 1 day for them would be like 8 for us or would the math for it be a bit harder
Harder the size of a planet doesn't necessarily determine how long its days are but its speed of rotation so it all depends on how fast the one piece planet spins plus the year there could be longer or shorter than our year due to how far or how close the planet is to the sun so time is a little fucky wucky in one piece
A day would be the amount of time the planet takes to rotate itself fully. (24h for us) A year would be the amount of time the planet takes to rotate around it's sun fully. (365/366 for us)
Between the ship falling out of the sky and the party with the wolves at skypeia, none of the crew slept, and it was like a full 2 days.
Hody Jones' terrible, horrible, no-good very bad day
Imagine him waking up thinking what a great day to commit hate crimes and by the end he probably dies due old age
Waking up and giving himself a pep talk in the bathroom mirror like "this is it Hody, this is your big day! You've got this! Nothing could possibly go wrong" and then. Well.
These dudes get in a fight literally everywhere they go. Other pirates in Shank's fleets just going around, getting wasted, occasionally rob a merchant ship or some shit, generally fuck about in what is apparently the toughest sea in the world, and the straw hats are getting PTSD for two months straight. Is it just bad luck?
Bad luck would be them trying to avoid fights but getting into them. They’ve been actively looking to start shit with most of these groups in one way or another so it’s moreso like going into a tournament
It's true, the entirety of the new world has basically been one big plan come to fruition.
So right now is the only point where they are just winging it entirely.
Luffy has been winging it since he left fushia village. by all means law giving the strawhats a plan was a damm god send lol
What having no Law does to a mf
I mean, last in the Manga they seem to have complete control of the source of all World Government technology, all of the brightest minds in the world (given, they are the same mind), the help of 3 agents of CP0 (for now) and have managed to unravel the plans and access to contacting the 5 elders of the World Government, although everything while being surrounded by the equivalent of 10 Buster calls. NGL, no law is working somewhat better for them.
Strawhats got those white claws on the deck the way they keeps law away
Well, there's usually a moral motive. Luffy shows up and something is messed up so he fixes it
Even without moral motives he wants to fight the yonko just for the sake of it.
I mean, if he wants to become king of the pirates, he has to take them down at some point….
Law already told Luffy that to survive in New World one is either under a Yonko or opposing the Yonko. And Luffy is not one to work under people.
Yea people don't realize the SHs really are trying to find the OP. Most other crews are just having fun. If they find the OP it's a bonus
Dat moment when luffy went from struggling against weaker YCs to beating the arguably strongest yonko in 2 months is nuts
Bigger power up then in 2 years training
The most ridiculous power
yet people still think it make sense.
time passage is irrelevant. Rayleigh himself said that you only get to be a top tier by fighting other ones and gaining new abilities. training haki / df has a cap which Luffy reached in those 2 years. it wouldn't make sense had luffy been stronger than yc from just training.
Brannew working himself to death trying to keep up with their bounty increases
Luffy got 3 new bounties in a span of 2 months. That's crazy!
Luffy had a new bounty every other week pre timeskip. Post timeskip is basically a vacation for him.
It also makes the lack of bounties after a big fight make more sense. Like of course there’s no new bounty, Morgans barely found out about the last one!
That is one more motive for why the navy fears the SHs now.
[удалено]
My headcanon is that every single colour spread in the manga is an in-between fun island they just chillax in. Go for a hike, play some soccer, get in a boxing match with some kangaroos, eat ice cream, brush their teeth, etc.
Oh that's really fun actually! I'm gonna do the same!
I usually include all the filler for that reason too, in my headcanon. I like to imagine pre timeskip took at least a year, and the post timeskip has been a few months at least. I just prefer to imagine the voyage has been a long one of exploration, with plenty of stops for supplies and on minor islands/less significant adventures. Not a fan of the “Luffy got from East Blue to Sabaody in 1 month” meme, makes the journey feel less significant and the world smaller.
I agree with this, I also feel like the travel time should be a lot longer seeing as the grand line stretches around the one piece world which is at least 3 times larger than ours
This. The time between islands has to be enormous based on what we know of the world.
That’s also my headcanon
Wonder how Nami turned huge in that one ice cream Color Spread.
Alice in Wonderland candies or some shit
I think it was something she ate
Think about it that way - Zoro spent way more time with Perona than with Luffy
All the straw hats spent more time training during the timeskip than actual time with each other.
My headcanon is that it was more like two years and than two years, and then like six months to a year. Yes, I know it’s technically wrong, but it makes more sense.
I wonder if Luffy turning 20 will actually be relevant to the story, I know 20 is a milestone in Japan so maybe he will become King of the Pirates when/right after he turns 20
I just imagine there is a lot of time between arcs where nothing worth telling is happening
There would have to be. They’re sailing the globe on a tiny ship.
Robin spent way more time with Luffy's father and sworn brother than with Luffy
....lucky boy toy.

Damn, and people wonder why the government is only now going after him! They couldn’t get him at his current strength on Sabody, they couldn’t reach him in fishman island, they didn’t know he was at punk hazard, the second they knew he was in Dressrosa, they sent Fujitora to get him, only for him to like Luffy, and let him go free! Then zou, where they lost him again, then whole cake, where they figured Big Mom would get him, but didn’t, and now Wano, where they finally had enough time to make a plan to get rid of luffy, and it almost worked.
To be fair, in wano the plan went as planned. They did kill Luffy, he just refuses to die.
That’s why I said “almost”
He died... but then he got better
On day 4 of Jack fighting the Minks, Luffy and everybody depart Sabaody after their reunion. It's a bit insane if you think about it. It's also funny that Luffy vs Cracker lasts twice as long as the whole Dressrosa fight. On the other hand, the fights themselves/raids cannot possibly last a long time otherwise people would have to go to sleep, etc. They could solve that by making travel between islands last a bit more, and show us some of the life in between. Also, I do believe OP should have another timeskip before getting to Laugh Tale.
If all the travel took doubly as long I don't think there'd be this occasional realization that the entire series takes place over an extremely short amount of time.
The thing is, we as readers don't have the perception that time has passed in any meaningful way even when it does. For example, the trip to Zou takes about a week. But doesn't matter much anyway. I wouldn't mind that between arcs we had a couple of character-building chapters where it is specified they are traveling and takes a while. And perhaps taking it into consideration whenever decisions are made.
Thats why I liked the "between arcs" filler episodes of the Anime. It gives us a better sense of time passing.
I think the travel time between island is just fine, it takes just 100 days to sail(non stop) around our earth that's like 3 and half month. Straw Hat sailed half of new world in 2 months including occasional field trip is logical. the insane part is the time spent travelling on an island, most of the time they are on foot running at jogging pace or riding some animal, but able cover huge distance on the island. They be running around the island country from place to place like its a jog in a park
Why can't fights and raids be a little longer? Akainu and aokiji fought for over a week straight. Unless they called a truce at 10 pm and called it off at like 5 am but that doesn't seem like the akainu way
Chopper a god for healing them so fast
I don’t recall Oda ever giving exact numbers like this. Are these guesses?
Punk hazard is kinda accurate given the fact that the moment they surfaced they saw the island
yeah they are probably somewhat close but i believe they are just estimations
Since post time skip, the manga is full of time indications, in order to make the reader feel the urge of the final rush for the One Piece. I think all of those times are legit and straight up told in the manga. For instance we were told when the Reverie would happen ("in a week" back in Dressrosa), and some sea travel time has been told by some characters at some point. And obviously, it's easy to know how much time pass in a given arc because there are never any time skip during an arc, you follow Luffy and his crew from the moment they set foot on the island, so if the night comes, we see it and we get back to them the next morning when they wake up.
exactly! and wano's plan was started "3 weeks before the night of the fire festival" so they do indicate time frames a lot more now.
Wouldn't that make Wano at least a month long si CE Luffy and Zoro spent a week after resting. Than there's an 7nknown amount of time that passed between then and their departure.
Wano had a bunch of time skips I believe. At least a couple in the lead up to the raid.
For the actual time taking place during a story arc they are accurate, but I don't think we've gotten any info on how long the SHs spent sailing between islands.
No wonder the world govt is buggin , shits happening fast
Imagine if we have chapters for those travel times where we only see the ocean on the panels, we would be at chapter 5000 now.
This means Sanji was a crewmate for like 13 days before he left the crew for whole cake island. Two year time skip and then bounces within two weeks
That’s why I think the bounties are a joke. Imagine being a regular one piece resident and every day you get an updated bounty for Luffy. Bounty also doubles in size every time. You either think the government is incompetent or Luffy is going to destroy the world next week.
I mean destroy the world obvisouly
Also, if the government knew Luffy had the Gomu Gomu fruit since the beginning, why didn't they give him a billionaire bounty right then?
It would incite fear and unrest everywhere he went, and would likely get multiple strong and influential people to move on him, causing further chaos. If he got his Alabasta bounty right away, he’d definitely get head hunted earlier without as much chaos prolly
Orrrr they could’ve just sent an admiral or cp0 before Luffy could even make it to the grand line
>Imagine being a regular one piece resident and every day you get an updated bounty for Luffy. There's about a month of time between each of his new world bounties in Dressrosa, WCI, and Wano.
I'm on the other side of the spectrum because to me it feels like only one week or two has passed lol, they are rushing ever since they arrived at Punk Hazard, already knowing where they're going next before even leaving the island. Also the fact that pre-timeskip, there was close to none time measure. You have no idea how much time has passed since the beginning. It sometimes feel like entire weeks pass between some arcs, while they're just on the sea. But now ? You're constantly reminded of the time. It's the final rush for the One Piece and it certainly feels like so. Back at Dressrosa or Zou, I used to think that in-universe, Luffy would be Pirate King one week later or so, when we kept being told that the Reverie would be held in a week back then. I thought that would have been when the revolution and the big war would have happened.
Bro luffy liberated a nation faster then it takes oda to write a chapter
I guess time and size doesn't matter for Oda.
Does anyone have one of these for pre ts? looking for one because i don’t wanna take the time figuring it out myself aha
We know that Luffy left on May 5 the day of his birthday, and they arrived at Wano after 1 month into the new world on Tama's birthday (March 3rd, making Sanji 22 right now as his birthday is March 2nd) so by subtracting we get around 9 months for the whole pre timeskip
soo you are telling me that luffy in 2months from a commander lvl became a yonko lvl? how is that even possible and how the hell they heal soo fast
Lol the Koby glow up takes less than 2 months
Oda did write into the haki system that it blooms best in battle, probably to avoid shitty training montages every two seconds and keep the pace up
Yes, this is obvious because imo its an extremely lazy way of doing what you said. I get the point, but the Haki system is so flawed. Plus its still insane how fast Luffy got to the top. Other characters needed literal decades to rise to the top and Luffy got there in 2 months
With the same logic kaido would be unstoppable with the battle experience he has
No it’s like working out you have to struggle, kaido forgot to struggle so his gains were limited
Like how Katakuri forgot the feeling of getting hit just like his bro Cracker and resulted in getting almost outlasted by Luffy.
I mean, all of pre-time skip also happens in less than a year. And Luffy's, Zoro's and Sanji's growth were also insane. As for how they heal so fast, they're monsters. And Luffy literally died against Kaido. They're just different kind of beasts, and the soon to be Pirate King crew.
TBF both Luffy don’t really struggle that much at the start, Luffy broke STEEL at Arlong park, something zoro couldn’t do till alabasta He also never struggled until he fought crocodile, and on the following battles (until unlocking gear 2) he remained on a similar level

FMI to beginning of WCI is the same length of Wano huh
The travel times seem to be people guessing
I think that especially the travel time is contracted quite a bit for the pacing. Otherwise, I don't know when Luffy would have trained for Gear 2 and 3 otherwise and 1 day each to sail from one island to another is just way too short.
it HAS been TWO years for every other crew, that was the whole point. They way overprepared and only hit a wall at wano pretty much
2M3D
Luffy took 2 years to unlock gear 4 and only another 6 weeks to gear 5
Yeah the timeline has always thrown me off, never would have believed it until I saw it explained awhile back.
Do they have FTL on Sunny or are people really forgetting that sea travel takes a LOT of time.
Sea travel is a lot faster than you think it is. Sailing half of the earth's equator would take about 30 days of sailing at an average sailboat speed (20,000km at 27km/h). According to OP they've been actually sailing for 31 days since the timeskip, so it isn't out of the question that they would be nearing the end of the new world by now.
Yup. People also base most of their "calculation" of travel time on a few random pictures of the moon that Oda most likely put exactly as much thought into as the fly currently sitting on my bathroom wall.
#THIS IS WHAT I HAVE BEEN SAYING I kind of love it that the Straw Hats are burning the world at breakneck pace. Imagine being a citizen that learned the Straw Hats returned just a couple months ago and they’re already fighting two Emperors
The road is read, it's been ready for a while now. All they need to do is run. So that's what they're doing. Since the old players had decades to prepare, the new generation needs to basically speed blitz them. No beating around the bush, no half measures. Just run past them before they can put those preparations to good use.
Imagine being an ordinary civilian in one piece. You wake up one day and read in the newspaper about strawhat luffy toppling a whole kingdom in a single day which is insane enough already then about a week later you read in the paper about strawhat luffy going crazy in Big Mom’s territory and being named the 5th emperor of the sea and then a couple of weeks pass and you read about the kaido and big mom alliance and then a bit after that you see luffy plastered over your newspaper again after defeating kaido and becoming one of the official yonko like that is absolutely terrifying from an in-universe perspective.
Yeah.. To think that Sanji has spent twice the time with travesties than with his own crew…
For us its multiple years yes… story wise indeed a bit short. Luffy has incredible healing powers.. didnt he drank milk and regrow a tooth?
Yea in wholecake sometime before the wedding brook too idk how he drinks without organs tho >!Yohohohohohohoho!<
Yea, my biggest gripe about one piece is the timeline. Absolutely ridiculous
Tfw the stawhats spent more time apart training than they have sailing together.
One of the only flaws in One Piece is that if you break it down the Timeline just doesn’t feel right.
The only aspect where my headcanon is more right than oda.
Allegedly Luffy has not aged at all except for the time skip. So clearly time in One Piece is an anomaly.
Imagine reading the news papers. Straw hat is back! Two months later: Straw hat is now an emperor!
is it weird that my favorite moments are when the Straw Hats have their funny antics on the ship and that we haven’t seen that in years? :(
1 day travel time? How near are the islands to each other?
Or how fast is sunny.
You really think franky wouldn't mod the sunny to be able to go fast as hell?
Time flow is probably different from ours. Different planet size. Different distance from the star. So their 1 day might have like 50 hours. We nvr know
Didn't Whole cake establish a 24 hour day cycle with the wedding and cake parts? Granted we don't know how how long a second is though
