In "Treasure Island," the phrase "nor he weren't neither" reflects the dialect and speech patterns of certain characters, particularly those from lower socioeconomic backgrounds. The phrase is a double negative, used to emphasize that someone is not mean or cruel. This stylistic choice adds authenticity to the characters' voices and highlights the social context of the story. Overall, it showcases the complexities of language and character relationships within the narrative.

In Treasure Island who truly has the right to the treasure and why?

Assuming you mean "Treasure Island" by Robert Louis Stevenson, the treasure was put there by Captain Flint and his men. Flint being dead, it belongs to the crew. But, the treasure wasn't their property. It was stolen plunder. With the real owners being unable to trace, it would be considered abandoned property. With the lack of a local authority to accept the forfeit of all or part of the abandoned property (called "escheat"), it belongs to the finder. If you were to find a treasure nowadays, you would have to share it with the state if it is on state land or within three miles of the coast.
