## One Piece Chapter 179, pages 11-12: Showdown at Alubarna - Chapter: 179 - Pages: 11-12 - Characters: Kouza, Chaka, Alabasta Royal Guards ### Summary Page 11: A large group of rebel soldiers is shown charging fiercely across the desert on horseback and camels, kicking up massive clouds of dust. A narration box reads, "Meanwhile, the rebels led by Kouza, Continue to quickly close in on Alubarna." Kouza is shown in a close-up, his face scarred and furious, wearing his tinted glasses. He yells out a challenge to the king: "Just you wait, Cobra! We won't allow you to do as you please with Alabasta anymore! We'll be the ones to protect this country!" Below, a map of the Alabasta Kingdom illustrates the strategic situation. It shows the Rebels moving north from Katorea towards Alubarna, while the Royalists are stationed at Alubarna. Another narration box states, "The Royal Guards led by Chaka," setting the stage for the inevitable clash between the two massive forces. Page 12: At the capital city of Alubarna, the Royal Guards are frantically preparing for the rebel attack. Soldiers are seen moving a massive cannon into position. "MOVE THE CANNON TO THE SOUTHERN GATES!" one shouts. "HURRY UP AND BRING MORE AMMUNITION!" yells another. A narration box notes, "Continued to fortify the capital for the impending assault." Inside the palace, Commander Chaka is speaking with a subordinate. "Commander Chaka, the enemies reportedly number over 2 million," the soldier reports. Chaka asks, "You there... What do you make of his majesty's appearance at Nanohana?" The soldier replies, "Well, as a faithful soldier who's served him for over a decade, I can't quite swallow it... There's no way he would have done such a thing!" Chaka agrees, "Exactly my feelings too... Something sinister must have happened to his majesty!" Chaka's face hardens with fierce determination as he declares, "That's all the more reason why we cannot afford to lose this battle! Do not hesitate at the enemy's numbers! For the sake of our king... And princess Vivi... WE MUST PROTECT THIS KINGDOM!"
