In response to Shuri’s skepticism, Lin Rui couldn’t help but wear a proud expression on his face.
“While it’s true that Wakanda’s technology is far ahead of the outside world in many aspects, there are still areas where the outside world has advantages. With a larger population, naturally, there are more geniuses, and as a result, so advanced technologies may not be lacking.”
“Hmph, if the technology is really that advanced, then why are you so interested in nanotechnology? Without nanotechnology, can your Uncle Bucky create a suit like that?” Shuri countered unreservedly upon hearing Lin Rui’s sowhat disparaging words about Wakanda.
Shuri was well aware of Wakanda’s strengths and weaknesses. Although conflicts between various factions were frequent in the outside world, wars also served as catalysts for technological advancents.
Wakanda was well-inford about so black technologies in the world, such as Stark’s miniature Arc Reactor, Osborn’s gene therapy dicants, and strength enhancers, SHIELD’s antigravity engine, as well as the recently erged Spatial Teleportation technology and the Spaceship that had made headlines worldwide.
These technologies, referred to as “black technology,” might seem impressive, but from Wakanda’s perspective, they weren’t all that extraordinary. For example, Wakanda had its own vibranium version of the miniature Arc Reactor, which might be even more efficient in terms of energy usage.
For gene enhancent and treatnt, Wakanda had the Heart-Shaped Herb, a natural wonder. As for the antigravity engine, Wakanda had developed it years ago.
Regarding Spatial Teleportation technology and Spaceship, while Wakanda didn’t currently possess them, it didn’t an they couldn’t achieve such technology. True Wakanda was hidden in a unique space.
Otherwise, with so many satellites scanning the skies daily, how could they have concealed such a large piece of territory in Africa for hundreds of years?
Transitioning from the small African nation of Wakanda on Earth to the real Wakanda appeared as if they rely crossed an invisible energy barrier, but, in reality, they traversed a dinsional gateway. This demonstrated that Wakanda had considerable expertise in spatial technology; they simply focused on a different direction.
However, the world always had hidden geniuses working on things in the shadows. For example, Professor Pym, who had a falling out with SHIELD decades ago, had his Pym Particles and the Ant-Man suit, of which Wakanda had no knowledge.
Therefore, there was no reason for Shuri to assu that Bucky, who appeared average and had a “subpar” prosthetic limb, could possess a suit of black technology as surreal as the Ant-Man suit.
“If you don’t believe it, then just wait and see. Uncle Bucky’s abilities will amaze you,” Lin Rui stated confidently after hearing Shuri’s retorts.
If the plot indeed unfolded as Lin Rui knew, T’Challa’s team wouldn’t have an easy ti capturing Ulysses. Although they eventually captured Ulysses with the help of the CIA in the United States, he was later rescued by N’Jadaka during questioning.
N’Jadaka’s motive for rescuing Ulysses was to use him as a ans to enter Wakanda and confront T’Challa directly about his father, who had been the previous king and N’Jadaka’s uncle. In front of various tribal elders, N’Jadaka aid to prove his identity and challenge T’Challa for the throne.
In a life-or-death challenge, N’Jadaka defeated T’Challa, throwing him off a cliff, and leaving his fate uncertain. T’Challa had barely ascended to the throne when he was “killed” by a challenger, and under Wakanda’s archaic system, N’Jadaka’s takeover seed legitimate.
However, T’Challa didn’t die but regained his Black Panther abilities with the help of the White Gorilla Tribe and launched a counterattack against N’Jadaka. With assistance from various quarters, T’Challa successfully quelled the internal turmoil in Wakanda, reclaiming his position as the true king.
In Lin Rui’s view, if T’Challa’s team had been more cautious during the operation to capture Ulysses, ensuring tighter security after his capture or taking him away imdiately, the subsequent events might have been avoided.
Of course, if N’Jadaka intended to go to Wakanda even after Ulysses’ capture, T’Challa’s best course of action would have been to eliminate him, preventing him from obtaining an opportunity to challenge his rule.
However, in the original plot, T’Challa’s stubbornness led him to accept N’Jadaka’s challenge, and unfortunately, he was defeated in the challenge. All that would have been necessary to prevent the internal turmoil in Wakanda was for T’Challa to handle any situation before N’Jadaka challenged him.
So, this ti, Lin Rui had Bucky accompany T’Challa to capture Ulysses in South Korea, which could be seen as lending them an extra layer of security. If the events from the original plot did unfold, having Bucky present would provide an additional safeguard.
For instance, when N’Jadaka ca to rescue Ulysses, Bucky could have been prepared and waiting at the back entrance. With Bucky’s abilities combined with the Ant-Man suit, N’Jadaka wouldn’t have had a chance to escape safely with Ulysses.
“Amaze us? With my brother personally involved, your Uncle Bucky wouldn’t even have had the chance to take action!” Although Lin Rui was confident in his words, Shuri still didn’t believe that Bucky was all that formidable.
However, Lin Rui didn’t bother explaining further to Shuri. After their brief argunt, T’Challa and his team were already approaching their destination in South Korea. The speed of the Wakandan royal aircraft was incredibly fast, even surpassing the fifth and sixth-generation fighter jets currently used outside Wakanda.
Seeing that Lin Rui was no longer engaging with her and that T’Challa’s team was almost at their destination, Shuri decided to stop arguing. As a logistics support specialist located far away in Wakanda, Shuri needed to ensure the smooth execution of T’Challa’s plan.
Besides the frontline operatives needing to be exceptionally skilled, remote logistical support was equally crucial.
“T’Challa, Nakia, communication is normal, and you have reached the designated location. According to the intelligence, Ulysses will conduct the transaction at an underground casino. Please prioritize safety.”
“Received!”
