In Anime/Manga One piece, when straw hat pirate had finished explore the
entire island ( or beat the bad guys ), straw hat pirate will continue their
journey to the next adventure ( a.k.a next island ). They travel around grand
line using Going Merry soon will be replaced with Thousand sunny. The
manga/anime never mention how long they have been in sea ( cause using a boat
to travel in sea would be take a month maybe a year ). In anime/manga it's
like the distance between previous island and the next island only take an
hours to make it. Is the distance of island in one piece not really that far ?

question
one-piece
How much time did straw hat pirate need to travel to the next island?


No, usually it takes them few days to reach that destination, why that is not
shown is because nothing interesting is happening. We usually are only shown
the stuff that is happening or when there is some important crew interaction
ongoing.

One of the earliest examples i can think of is when Luffy has recruited Ussop
and they meet the two bounty hunters(Joni&Yosaku). They are talking about a
chef and they tell Luffy that he can find one on a sea restaurant, but it will
take them 2-3 days to reach it from the place where they currently are (the
chapter in question is 42, page ~19). Another example is the travel time
between Dressrosa and Zou.

Most islands require some time to pass, but since nothing interesting is
happening there, Oda just skips those days.
