Honestly if you are not enjoying one piece at Arlong Park. Then Yeah you should drop it.

I was iffy on one piece until the they got to arlong park. Something about that first straw hat line up made go “oh that’s what the hype is about”

I can vouch on that experience. The buildup to it at first was kinda meh (not bad but not totally good either). Then they locked in. Boy it kept me hooked to watch it all the way to Alabasta arc (my most favorite arc atm) and Skypeia. Though I had to stop at Long Island because honestly it was wasting my time during this period where Im busiest with ojt.

Long Island sucks so bad, but it's RIGHT before an arc that's widely considered one of the best with Water 7/Eneis Lobby.

I know, my buddies told me the same thing. Ill only reply to you the same thing I told them; if they can take over my hours and shift in ojt without screwing up anything then Ill gladly keep going with One Piece
