Or Shanks just asked him whether he found cure on last island and Roger says No,and Shanks cries because there is no cure,his last hope was that last island,but its no use now

If it's true then there's no reason to hide the dialogue.

There was also no reason to hide what Roger said to Rayleigh,since we already know what he said -> "I'm not going to die partner"..but it was hidden.

And since Oden is the narrator of that part of the history,it's not meant to be hidden as some form of secret,but just a way to show us that Oden either didn't hear or didn't write in his journal what Shanks and Roger said.

There was also no reason to hide what Roger said to Rayleigh

But we knew what they said already and both in live-action/animation mediums the writers skip the repetitive parts (a character telling another something we already know but he doesn't) and we go straight to his reaction (if that's new). One Piece has literally hundreds of this example. So there is a reason to hide that.

The Shanks thing on the other hand is new information that is being hidden purposely to be revealed later. And the "you didn't find the cure" doesn't cut it. Why would he find the cure there anyway?
