"Adventure and experience could make people stronger, allowing them to catch up to and surpass opponents they could once only look up to. But if they were on the same team, going through the same adventures, then unless one of them encountered some other stroke of fortune, the gap in strength would only persist. The strong would remain stronger, and the weak would remain weaker."
Thinking of this, Mousse could not help smiling. He had realized why no one had noticed this issue. The reason was quite simple. "It's like the sun rising in the east and setting in the west. It's become accepted common sense. Other than someone like me, who would stop to think deeply about the reason behind such a phenomenon?"
And the reason was not hard to find. The growth brought by adventure and battle was multiplicative rather than additive, while it was rare for multiple members of a team to have the chance to reach that ceiling. Naturally, the extent of each person's growth would not differ too greatly.
Another question born from this, however, concerned Mousse even more. "It's understandable that the gap within the Giant Soldier Pirates did not change much, but according to these two, they also competed against that king after becoming pirates, yet the gap never narrowed. Why is that?"
