Why this matters
A Chekhov’s-gun dropped as casual exposition by a primary-source witness (Roger’s first mate). Oda routinely back-loads a single throwaway line into a saga-defining mechanic; this one quietly rewrites the rules of Poneglyph literacy and pre-loads the Pirate-King-lineage power register. Routes to Voice of All Things, Joy Boy Identity, Void Century and Ancient Kingdom, Will of D.
