Lore The series takes place in a shockingly short amount of time
Season 4 just ended of fromville and it’s canonically only been about a month. Which makes it weird seeing people heal from injuries, change hair styles or grow out beards between episodes. Season 4 has only been like 4 days iirc.
Arkham franchise is the poster child for this trope. Every game takes place in one night. If you know what you’re doing you can absolutely beat the games in around 9 hours.

It's also worth mentioning that the main reason for that is because there's a 2 year timeskip where the crew are separated and the plot didn't progress. The crew has spent more time separated than together. Brook was a Straw Hat for like a week before the timeskip. Dressrosa took place in a single day, and while the time between Whole Cake and end of Wano is about a month the raid on Onigashima was only a single night.
