## One Piece Chapter 187, pages 8-8: Even Match - Chapter: 187 - Pages: 8-8 - Characters: Koza, rebel soldier ### Summary Page 8: Koza is on his knees, panting heavily, "HUFF... HUFF... NGH!". A fellow rebel runs up to him, asking, "KOUZA! Is the bullet wound from Nanohana still hurting y-". Koza cuts him off, gripping his sword tightly, "This is a battlefield! Stop worrying about such trivialities!" He stands up, declaring, "In any case, I need to get myself a horse! If I can just make it out of the town center, I can then head to the Northern Block where the palace is!" The rebel is shocked, "That's crazy! The Northern Block is guarded by the bulk of the Royal Army, not to mention Pell and Chaka!" Koza ignores the warning, stating, "I'm going to demand a surrender from the king." He leaps forward, shouting, "LEND ME A HAND!" The rebel tries to stop him, "There's no need for you to risk going in deep alone! Most of us rebels haven't even arrived yet! We still have reinforcements coming in from the other towns!" Koza simply replies, "...It's already too late."
