The seed

Why this matters

Chekhov-explicit foreshadowing at the arc-clock register — Oda installs an explicit deadline that the next several chapters must operate within. Pre-loads not just the brother-meeting scene but the transit-set-piece chapter arc (Drum-to-Alabasta sailing chapters are calibrated against this ten-day window). The reader is told in plain text: Ace is in Alabasta; Luffy must get there within ten days; do not miss the meeting.
