Komlan Kolonna looked at the soldier who was sending the specific signal and asked, "How is it? Can we contact the satellite and send the information out?"
Before the soldier could answer, a laser cannon shot directly pierced through the command vehicle.
"Boom!"
The command vehicle exploded violently, disintegrating instantly and killing everyone inside on the spot. Rachel's body was blown apart, and his remains were thrown into the forest, landing on a tree branch.
In the sky, Okoye smiled, satisfied with her attack.
…
Elsewhere-
The Black Panther father and son had moved to another street, continuing to eliminate the remaining mercenaries. Just after clearing the street, they were preparing to split up when they saw the Winter Soldier squad heading toward the command vehicle.
Seeing the squad, T'Challa said, "Father, let's take care of them, and then we'll split up."
"Alright!"
The next second, the two Black Panthers lunged at the retreating Winter Soldier squad.
"Rat-a-tat-tat!"
Seeing the two strangely dressed Black Panthers charging at them, two of the squad's assault troops immediately pulled their triggers, their rifles firing a barrage of bullets.
"Clang! Clang! Clang!"
The bullets clanged off the Black Panthers' vibranium armor, causing no harm and allowing the Panthers to close in.
"Boom! Boom!"
Two of the squad's heavy gunners fired grenades at the Black Panthers, hitting them squarely.
The explosion's shockwave sent the Black Panthers flying into two parked cars, smashing them.
T'Chaka and T'Challa got up unscathed, the explosion merely displacing them without causing harm due to their vibranium suits' strength.
Seeing that even grenades couldn't kill the enemies, a member of the Winter Soldier squad shouted, "Clear a path!"
Two soldiers in front quickly moved aside, revealing a soldier carrying a heavy machine gun with a large ammo box on his back.
"Rat-a-tat-tat-tat!"
The barrel spun rapidly, unleashing a storm of bullets toward the Black Panther father and son.
The squad leader then ordered, "Five and Six, suppress them and cover our retreat. The rest, follow me."
The other seven squad members nodded expressionlessly and began retreating quickly.
Soldier Five, armed with an RPG, aimed at T'Chaka, while Soldier Six, wielding a 12.7mm heavy machine gun, suppressed the Black Panthers, making it difficult for them to escape the metal storm.
Soldier Five was waiting for Soldier Six's ammo to deplete before delivering the final blow to hinder the Black Panthers' movements.
With a firing rate of 3,000 rounds per minute, Soldier Six managed to suppress the Black Panthers for a full minute.
The 12.7mm bullets were powerful enough to tear through armor. But the bullets from the heavy machine gun only managed to prevent the Black Panthers from advancing, causing no real harm.
With the ammo box nearly empty, Winter Soldier Six threw down the heavy machine gun and removed the empty ammo box. He drew a Soviet combat knife from his back, holding it ready in both hands as he watched the front warily.
Seeing this, Winter Soldier Five fired an RPG at the Black Panther father and son.
"Boom!"
Taking advantage of the moment the Black Panthers were blown back, Winter Soldier Five discarded the launcher, grabbed grenades from his gear, and tossed them at the Black Panthers.
In a matter of seconds, he threw ten grenades. After this, he drew his own combat knife.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
The Black Panther father and son were visibly frustrated. They had been suppressed by the heavy machine gun for a full minute, then blown away by the RPG, and now they are being hindered with grenade explosions.
But despite the smoke and fire, they suffered no injuries thanks to their vibranium suits. Though the relentless attacks had delayed them by over a minute.
Winter Soldiers Five and Six, holding their combat knives, watched the smoke and dust ahead cautiously. They knew their previous attacks wouldn't have killed the Panthers, but their mission was only to delay them.
Suddenly, two figures leaped from the smoke, attacking the Winter Soldiers.
"Clang!"
"Zzzzzz..."
Claws clashed with knives, producing metallic sounds and screeching scratches. Feeling the inhuman strength of their opponents, T'Challa said, "Father, they're like those enhanced soldiers from before."
T'Chaka nodded and used his suit's communication system to give orders.
"Okoye, we've encountered enhanced soldiers, possibly injected with super serum. Have the jets sweep the area and leave none alive."
Okoye replied, "Yes, Your Majesty!"
She then commanded, "All jets, initiate a search for seven enhanced soldiers using Soviet equipment. Engage and eliminate on sight."
"Yes, Captain!"
In the sky, several jets switched to scan mode, searching for the seven Winter Soldiers on the battlefield below.

Meanwhile-
Itachi Uchiha and four members of the Akatsuki had reached the depths of the forest, standing before Wakanda's barrier.
"This should be the place," Itachi said.
He grabbed a deer they had caught along the way and threw it at the barrier.
"Thud!"
The deer struck the barrier and fell to the ground. The barrier flickered with electricity, revealing a blue energy shield instead of the forest scenery.
…
In the laboratory, Shuri was monitoring border communications when she noticed an alert on the defense screen.
She saw a red dot indicating a collision with the Wakandan barrier, possibly from a deer.
Glancing at it, Shuri dismissed it. Since the border city attack, many frightened animals had been running wildly, frequently hitting the barrier. She briefly checked the alert and returned to focusing on the border city's situation.
She must do her best to ensure that the situation in Wakanda's border city will not be leaked.
