The seed (and immediate payoff)

Ch. 170 p. 7 — Nico Robin names her own Devil Fruit on-page for the first time: Hana Hana no Mi (Flower-Flower Fruit). She uses it against Pell at Rain Dinners, demonstrating the Spanish-numeral Fleurs attack-grammar (Tres Fleurs, Seis Fleurs Clutch).

Why this matters

Closes the unknown-power-of-Miss-All-Sunday mystery thread that has run since her Whisky-Peak first-appearance (~Ch. 0114). Earlier hints: arms sprouting from Vivi’s shoulder, the invisible-hand exposition. Ch. 0170 finally names the mechanic on-page.

The Spanish-numeral naming-grammar is also load-bearing — pre-loads forward-canon every Robin technique (Tres Fleurs, Cuatro Fleurs, Cinco Fleurs, Seis Fleurs Clutch, eventually Mil Fleurs Gigantesco Mano in the New World). The Spanish-vs-Japanese language choice canonizes Robin as the only Strawhat with a non-Japanese attack-name-grammar (until Sanji’s French additions in Sky/Water 7).
