This probably comes down to convention. Since the default (in common usage) is for the sei within the quote to not be regarded part of the quote, you would have state somewhere outside quote that you are using a different convention in your text.
.i «lu li'o sei [sa'a [nai]] broda li'u» sei ro zo sei cu pagbu lo sitna selsku [gi'e se sitna]
If you stick to this convention throughout an entire book, it would be enough to mention it once in the beginning.
