Why this matters
Ch. 145 canonizes that Dalton’s Ch. 133-135 protector of this island identity is a post-defection role — he was a Wapol-regime officer before this chapter and broke with the king over Hiriluk’s death. The strike is the origin-moment.
Cross-link Dalton Disillusioned Officer Of Wapols Regime — the Ch. 142 World Council moral-awakening register pre-loaded this strike; Hiriluk’s death is the trigger event.
Forward-canon: how this strike resolves (Wapol’s counter, Dalton’s deposing / imprisonment / exile) is the next-chapter material. The Ch. 133-135 framing implies Dalton survived but lost his regime-position; he reappears as a civilian-elected leader by the time the Straw Hats arrive.
