The seed
First on-page articulation Ch. 92 page 16 — Arlong (looming over pinned Luffy with the Shark Saw raised, SW UP!!): “ONCE WE HAVE CHARTS OF ALL THE WORLD’S OCEANS, NOTHING CAN STOP THE FISH-MEN!! THE WHOLE WORLD WILL BE MY KINGDOM!!! DRAWING CHARTS FOR ME ALLOWS NAMI TO DO THE THING SHE LOVES BEST!!! AND SOON I WILL ACHIEVE MY AMBITION!!!” The chapter escalates the Ch. 71 Arlong Empire Will Rule East Blue declaration from East-Blue-scale to all-world-oceans-scale. The Nami-as-cartographer-slave arrangement was always for global, not regional, dominion — the Ch. 79 Nami Charts As Survival Currency utility-skill seed gains its end-state-purpose canonization: Nami’s cartography is the intelligence-tool that enables fishmen-world-conquest. Luffy’s response (same page, panel-cascade): “I SEE… …THE EAST BLUE!!! THIS ISLAND IS THE STEPPING STONE TO…” — first on-page Luffy comprehension of geopolitical scale, the witness-without-context register ends. Forward-payoff: Hody Jones’s New Fish-Man Pirates’ plot (Ch. 631+) inherits this fishmen-global-conquest doctrine at full-world scope — Hody is the inheritor of Arlong’s-global-fishmen-conquest doctrine, not just Arlong’s-East-Blue-conquest doctrine.
