"Your Majesty, since the transaction won't conclude for another five years, it means the transaction hasn't even taken place yet, so there's still room for negotiation, isn't there?"
"For this, we are willing to pay a higher price than the Five Great Nations. With this money, not only your royal family can live a better life, but also your people."
"Your deals with the Five Great Nations could be easily handled by simply reducing production each year or canceling the final year's deal."
Vail proposed his own solution. For him, achieving his goal through a simple business transaction would be ideal, but if the other party refused, he would have no choice but to resort to force.
Upon hearing Vail's suggestion, T'Chaka frowned slightly. It seemed that some forces and individuals were eyeing Vibranium again. This scheme had been in place for 25 years to convince all nations that Wakanda truly had no more Vibranium. In another five years, he believed that all nations would also believe that Wakanda's Vibranium had been depleted.
For this plan, T'Chaka couldn't possibly abandon a plan he'd been laying out for years just for a little profit. Besides, what the other side had to offer was really beneath the notice of the real Wakanda.
Does Wakanda lack money? Does it lack those orders? Not at all.
As for basic infrastructure aid, that's a joke; Wakanda doesn't even care about outside technology.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Vail's offer is very sincere and tempting, but I really don't have any more Vibranium, and I can't afford to offend the Five Great Nations of Wakanda."
"Perhaps the Five Great Nations still have unused Vibranium, which Mr. Vail could acquire from them."
Hearing that the other party was not only unmoved by his words but also suggested that he trade with the Five Great Nations, Vail's smile vanished instantly, and he looked at T'Chaka with a serious expression, saying, "Your Throne Room, are you really not going to give me a chance?"
(In another time and space, when someone asks you not to give them another chance, you are not only giving them a chance, but also giving yourself a chance.)
T'Chaka shook his head. "I'm sorry, it seems we're not meant to be. Wakanda cannot cooperate with you."
Upon hearing the rejection, Vail showed a hint of disappointment and said, "Why not choose a perfectly good business partnership instead of forcing me to resort to violence?"
"Move! Capture the King and Prince of Wakanda!"
At Vail's command, the three Winter Soldier beside him immediately took action.
The moment Vail gave the order, T'Chaka sensed something was wrong, but he didn't panic because his son T'Chaka had already become the Black Panther of this generation and inherited his Suit.
Although he himself did not have the Black Panther Suit, he had taken the Heart-Shaped Grass and, despite his age, his combat abilities were still quite impressive, not to mention he had a team of Royal Guard members with him.
Two Winter Soldier rushed towards T'Chaka and T'Challa respectively, while another charged towards the women wielding spears.
However, what happened the next second made Vail's eyes widen.
He saw that the Winter Soldier he had brought was not defeating and capturing the enemy as easily as he had expected, but was instead embroiled in a fierce battle.
Furthermore, the opposing prince, after putting on what he considered a leopard helmet as an ornament, immediately unleashed terrifying combat power.
Sensing something was wrong, Vail immediately pressed the Bluetooth Headset he was wearing and shouted, "Something's happened, call for backup!"
"Repeat this: Call for backup if the situation changes!"
T'Challa had now transformed into Black Panther, his claws fully extended, and he attacked the warrior wielding a dagger in front of him.
At that moment, Winter Soldier No. 1, wielding a dagger, swung it with incredible speed, slashing T'Challa several times.
However, instead of the sensation of a dagger slicing through muscle, there was a metallic scraping sound. After a few cuts, T'Challa's suit was torn, revealing the Black Panther Suit he was wearing underneath.
However, T'Challa had already put on the Black Panther Suit underneath when he arrived; the suit on the outside was just a disguise.
T'Challa threw a punch, slamming it into the opponent's chest and sending him flying, crashing into the conference room table.
He then leaped forward and caught up, engaging the opponent in battle once more.
T'Chaka, however, did not have it as easy as T'Challa. He passed the Black Panther Suit on to his son and did not wear it himself. However, with the power of the Heart-Shaped Grass, he was no less capable than the Winter Soldier.
Moreover, because of the pre-entry inspection, the other party was not carrying firearms. Although it wasn't as easy as his son's situation, he wasn't particularly embarrassed either, and instead managed to stop the other party.
The members of the royal guard did not actually use their Vibranium weapons at this time, but rather treated them as ordinary spears.
The six men working together were no match for the man before them. Seeing that they couldn't subdue him without using Vibranium weapons, Okoye immediately decided to leave no survivors.
The spear in his hand emitted a beam of laser light.
"Zzz~ Boom!"
Winter Soldier No. 3 was instantly hit by the laser and sent flying, crashing into the wall.
Seeing that Captain Okoye had used Vibranium weapons, the other guards also stopped holding back, and their Vibranium Spear immediately unleashed lasers.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
The Winter Soldier, who was already wounded, was instantly riddled with holes and died immediately.
Upon witnessing this, Vail's eyes widened: What... what kind of weapon is this?
Is this still the Wakanda he knows? This leopard-headed king is dominating the Winter Soldier, and the king is no less skilled than the Winter Soldier in hand-to-hand combat.
They have a big secret, and these secrets must be passed on to the organization.
At that moment, in the jungle outside Wakanda, an armed helicopter took off, aimed at the house where Vail and the others were, and a missile was launched instantly.
At this moment, T'Challa the Black Panther had just defeated Winter Soldier No. 1 and arrived at his father's side. The Royal Guard had already arrived at the King's side and taken over the King's opponent.
T'Chaka looked at his son and said, "Capture that Vail. I need to know who's targeting us."
"Yes, Father!"
Before T'Challa could act, the missile struck the building they were in a second later.
"Boom!"
In the instant of the explosion, T'Challa pulled his father into his arms, shielding him from the shockwave.
However, the members of the Royal Guard were not so lucky; they were instantly swept away by the shockwave of the explosion.
Fortunately, the armor they wore was not ordinary either; it was made of Vibranium, and its defensive capabilities were in no way inferior. However, since it was not full-body armor, it did not provide complete protection.
Two of the six guards died instantly, and the remaining four also succumbed to their injuries.
T'Challa looked at his father in his arms and cried out anxiously, "Father, Father, are you alright!"
