I believe that when Oda chose the smile-style jolly rogers, he didn't have this whole story in mind at the time. When he desided upon it, he named the artificial fruits smilies so he can connect the underground with the said jolly roger style and set up the proper background. The only thing that bugs me is, why Kid has such a flag.
