What Caused the Timeskip in One Piece?
The timeskip in One Piece came about 'cause Luffy realized he and his crew weren't strong enough to face the New World's dangers. After their tough loss at Sabaody Archipelago, where they were completely outmatched by the Warlords and the Navy, Luffy sends a secret message to regroup in 2 years. Each member goes off to different parts of the world to get stronger and level up their skills.

I'd argue the timeskip in One Piece wasn't just for power-ups. It was a crucial narrative move to show character growth and maturity. Post-timeskip, the Straw Hats aren't just stronger, they've also evolved in their understanding of what it means to be part of a crew, and how serious their journey is. It's more than just a training montage; it's about setting up the stakes for the New World.
hot take but the timeskip was just a way for Oda to power up the Straw Hats without showing all the grind. They needed a glow-up to keep the story spicy.
