No, the Void Century is 800 years ago. In which before, there is known to be a flourishing civilization that dissapeared (no name for their civilization) after which, the World Government was control, as is still the case today.

-Also, she mentioned in ep. 91 about someone named "D", right?
No Kureha is the first to mention the Will of D. Although we don't know much about it, it would seem that 5 characters mentioned in the plot so far carried the name; Luffy D. Monkey, Portugas D. Ace, Marshall D. Teach, Jaguar D. Saulo, and Gol D. Roger. While we don't know what the D stands f or we know a few things. Oda stated in an SBS that the family name of c haracters in One Piece could be their first, their middle or their last name. We know that Ace and Luffy are brother's so we know the D is their name link as family. We know that Saulo said that everyone in his family has D in their name too, and we know the attitude of those who carry the D are quite similar (refer to any SBS about Ace to see similarities to Luffy, and check out the time Blackbeard meets Luffy (hes Marshall D. Teach).

-I dont think that was the pirate king but someone much greater than him
No she says "so he's called that now?" as she only knew of him under his propername. A similarity will probly be in Luffy being called Straw Hat Luffy by the world, an not by his rightful name.

-That someone much greater than Roger is probably involved in the void history too.
Possible, but so far the series has made out Roger to be the greatest man who ever lived, with a pride that could not be shaken right p to his moment of death.

-"D" may be a leader of some kind of a clan and all of his decendants has carried on the middle intial of "D".
As I stated, it is likely just the family name, but there is a belief that the D. named people have a relation to the lost civilization of the void century. Possibly the only line of descendants still alive.

-Infos about "D" is top secret, and Robin's biggest role in One Piece would be to uncover all these mysteries.
Regardless of if Robin and Luffy's past are bound to intertwine (which Im sure they are), Oda would never make another character just as a character to expose anoher if they become one of the Mugiwari. Too trivial of a role in tha fashion, it would be like telling Sanji to just be the chef, and nothing else.

Robin's role will expand the longer she's on the crew, like the rest, and will add her personal touch to everthing.
