The seed
Why this matters
Structural parallel to Karoo (Vivi’s Spot-Billed Duck mount, Ch. 110): every major-arc allied woman in the Whisky-Peak-to-Alabasta sequence has a non-human mount-companion. The pattern installs the female-character-with-creature-companion prop-coding axis.
Robin’s I-travel-alone-with-an-animal-companion register pre-installs her 20-year fugitive backstory (Ch. 391+): she has been moving across oceans alone for 20 years, and Bunchi is one of her transit-arrangements. The chapter renders her as self-sufficient-without-a-crew-ship, a reading that decodes much later when Ohara is canonized.
