It Was Him!

In the council chamber of the Wakanda Royal Palace, almost all of Wakanda's top officials were present.

This includes the elders of the five tribes, the leaders of the Border Tribe, the Commander of the Wakanda army, the W'Kabi, the leader of the Jabari Tribe, M'Baku, the strongest warrior of the five tribes of Wakanda, the former Black Panther T'Challa, Princess Shuri, the head of the Department of Technology, as well as the former King T'Chaka and the former High Priest Zuri.

Of course, there was also their king Eric Killmonger, and his comrade-in-arms, Wakanda's honored guest, Chen Mo.

Eric Killmonger sat on the throne, with Chen Mo sitting beside him at the same level. Everyone else sat around the throne on either side, while the lithe female warriors of the Dora Milaje stood behind the king, holding Vibranium Spear.

When Eric Killmonger announced that Chen Mo would be the Commander of this foreign military operation, everyone present looked at each other, somewhat at a loss. Only Princess Shuri sat there, rolled her eyes, and remained silent.

W'Kabi and M'Baku are very powerful warriors who lead their own tribes. M'Baku can be considered the strongest warrior after the Black Panther, while W'Kabi is the Department of Defense of Wakanda.

From any perspective, without King Eric Killmonger personally in command, the Commander of this massive military operation should, in any case, be chosen from either of the two.

Instead of letting a seemingly weak outsider lead them and command this military operation that concerns Wakanda's future.

So the two immediately protested against Eric Killmonger.

"How dare he, an outsider, lead the strongest warriors of Wakanda!"

"This operation is of utmost importance. Although he helped you kill Ulysses Klaue, you cannot let emotions cloud your judgment!"

Both of them are straightforward and don't hold back their opinions; they speak their minds directly to Chen Mo's face.

They could not disobey the king's orders, but they would not hold back any dissatisfaction. They would not be polite to Chen Mo.

The others nodded in agreement, echoing the sentiments of the two men.

Although Chen Mo and their king killed Wakanda's enemy, Ulysses Klaue, and Chen Mo was also a friend of the king and considered a guest of honor in Wakanda, they had no hostility towards Chen Mo.

But he was, after all, an outsider, and they didn't know him well. They were unwilling to let an outsider they didn't understand make the decision on such an important matter concerning the future of Wakanda.

Eric Killmonger was taken aback at first, but unlike the female warriors of the Dora Milaje behind him who had imagined that he would be furious because his decision had been questioned, he couldn't help but smile.

"It's my fault; I haven't formally introduced myself to you yet."

At this point, Eric Killmonger stood up and came to Chen Mo's side. After Chen Mo nodded slightly in agreement, he turned to face the crowd and spoke slowly.

"Although Wakanda has been secluded for decades, we are not completely isolated from information. You should all know Chen Mo, the war hero and Special Operations Team Commander from seventy years ago, right?"

"Are you talking about that Commander who supposedly wiped out the entire HYDRA single-handedly?"

"Didn't he crash into the sea seventy years ago, piloting HYDRA super bomber he intended to use to destroy the world?"

The crowd below nodded in agreement. It was a name even more familiar than Hitler's. If Hitler started World War II, then Commander Chen Mo personally ended it and brought peace to the world.

"That's right, but that's all in the past. Not long ago, the United States found that plane in the North Pole ice, and the Commander was frozen inside it."

Eric Killmonger's words caused a stir among the crowd.

You mean...?

Everyone had their own guesses, and looking at Eric, they asked uncertainly.

"That's right. We in Wakanda also have cryogenic hibernation technology. The Commander with extremely strong physical abilities did not die, but entered hibernation under low temperature."

The expressions on everyone's faces changed as Eric Killmonger spoke.

"He has now been thawed and is right in front of you."

"This is Commander Chen Mo!"

Amidst the stunned expressions of the crowd, Eric Killmonger continued.

"Back then, as the Commander of the Special Operations Team, he led the Special Operations Team to complete a large number of arduous tasks, eliminating all HYDRA base and troops. His command ability is beyond doubt."

"As for his personal strength, I believe everyone has heard of the legends. What I want to say is that his strength is no less than the rumors suggest. If anyone has any doubts, they can challenge him. The facts will tell you everything."

After Eric Killmonger finished speaking, he glanced around at the crowd below and said slowly.

"Does anyone still have a problem with him being the Commander of the operation?"

Few in the world are unaware of Commander Chen Mo's deeds. As the Commander of the Special Operations Team, he led the Special Operations Team to eliminate HYDRA. No one doubts his command ability, which is a skill truly honed and tested on the ground. He is far superior to those who have been at peace for decades and only know how to talk about strategy on paper.

As for his strength, legend has it that he can cleave tanks with his sword, kill people as easily and quickly as cutting melons and vegetables, and wipe out an entire HYDRA Legion equipped with advanced armored weapons by himself. These are things that even they would find difficult to do now, which shows just how strong he is.

After learning that Chen Mo was the legendary Special Operations Team Commander, W'Kabi decisively gave up his plan to compete for the Commander. He knew his own limitations; he was no match for Chen Mo in terms of either combat strength or command ability.

M'Baku, on the other hand, wasn't interested in commanding the operation, but after learning Chen Mo's true identity and formidable strength, his warlike nature resurfaced, and he immediately challenged Chen Mo.

Chen Mo did not refuse his challenge, but instead kindly taught him how to be a person.

M'Baku's battle this time was even worse than his previous fight with Eric Killmonger at the waterfall.

Faced with the ferocious attacks launched by M'Baku, who was as tall and strong as a Man-Ape, Chen Mo did not dodge but instead chose to fight back with force.

M'Baku unleashed a powerful, heavy punch, clashing with Chen Mo's own. The two fists collided, and M'Baku felt as if he had punched steel; his finger bones seemed to shatter under the immense impact, causing him excruciating pain.
