Patron As Pirate Tag

Status: stub · seeded by Ch. 41

Source context

From Vault/Chapters/0041.md:

> [!evidence|ch=41] Page 11 — *"Since we're all pirates, we might cross paths someday..."* (Kaya self-IDs as pirate, playful register)
> Kaya pirate-tags herself in the parting register. The line is throwaway-comedic but introduces a structural beat: *the patron of the Straw Hats is co-tagged as a pirate*. Forward-pattern: every later patron (Iceburg, the Wano daimyo, Vivi as Alabasta-princess-cum-Straw-Hat-ally) gets a similar pirate-affinity tag from the Straw Hats. recent-chapter: small seed; may not pay off independently. Propose new [[Foreshadowing/Patron As Pirate Tag]] (optional).
