Karoo Shot Combat-Casualty At Alubarna Beat

Status: pending · Technique: chekhov-explicit

The seed

Ch. 0183 p. 9. SHFF / SW…UMP…?! — Karoo shot. Vivi: KAROO!!! YOU’VE BEEN SHOT!!!

Why this matters

First on-page Karoo combat-casualty at firearm-tier (Ch. 0120 was beating-torture-tier; Ch. 0125 was wax-ball-strike-tier). Pays off the Ch. 0125 I’m not losing my friends loyalty-doctrine + Ch. 0120 silent-protector register at the Alabasta-saga endgame tier — Karoo bleeds in the line of duty. Forward-canon: Karoo is operationally incapacitated for the immediate-next-chapters; Vivi carries him onward to find medical care.
