Yeah, it does, though there's a bit of a loophole in the system too. Thing is, if you can interact with a canon character and not change the character or the history of the series, then it should be perfectly fine. So I had it that Chris receives training from Shanks during the time skip, which means he gets to know and train under Shanks, but there's enough vagueness there to not change Shanks' character or disrupt anything about the Red Haired Pirates and their activities. So long as I don't add any important or big amounts of information like "Chris left a scar on Shanks' chest," or "Chris' actions caused Shanks to get into a fight with Blackbeard" or anything the like, then things should be perfectly fine.

If Oda reveals any more information on what Shanks and his crew have been up to during those two years, then I'll be forced to follow what he says, change what's already been added, or simply remove any connection Chris has with Shanks at all (which would be the hardest thing for me to do, as it disrupts an important piece of One Dream history.)
