The seed
Ch. 71 page 15 — COCO VILLAGE signpost; palm-lined dirt street, wooden buildings, thatched-roof bus-stop structure, signposts. Ch. 71 page 4 — Nojiko’s arc-geography map (Arlong Park / Coco Village YOU ARE HERE / Gosa Village).
Why this matters
First on-page village-center of Coco Village. The chapter installs the village-center geography (palm-lined dirt street, wooden buildings, central square) for the arc’s combat-climax setting. The Ch. 70 outskirts of Coco Village caption is here extended to the village proper.
The Nojiko-sketched arc-geography map (page 4) provides the regional context: Coco Village sits between Arlong Park (west) and Gosa Village (east). The Merry Go is anchored between Coco and Gosa.
Forward-payoff: every Arlong-arc movement scene reads against this geography. The climax fight at Arlong Park will be staged with reference to the Coco Village outskirts; the Bell-mère flashback will be staged at Nojiko’s tangerine-grove house on the outskirts; the resolution will be staged at the village square shown here.
