As soon as Eric Killmonger finished speaking, everyone present was shocked.
They never expected that their seemingly fierce king would let T'Chaka and Zuli go.
In the situation just now, the two people had clearly confessed and were willing to die. Everyone thought that he would kill them and avenge his father. Unexpectedly, he actually planned to hand them over to the Presbyterian Council for trial.
Looking at Eric Killmonger's tall and majestic figure and his strong and resolute face, everyone present could not help but be impressed by his broad mind and fair handling. Perhaps, this is their real king, a
Qualified Black Panther!
Although Eric Killmonger has killed countless people over the years and even has the nickname of a murderer, he has never actually harmed a civilian.
All those who died in his hands were enemy soldiers or brutal terrorists and criminals, including when he was ordered to be an undercover agent to steal and rob vibranium weapons with Ulysses Crow.
In the name of encirclement and suppression, Ulysses Crow and his men were prevented from killing people at will.
With his reputation as a "murderer" and his cruelty in dealing with his enemies, no one would doubt that he is actually a pacifist!
As a loyal warrior of Hydra, Eric Killmonger naturally agrees very much with the purpose of Hydra.
Hydra is the guardian of the earth. They do not need to rule the entire earth because they already secretly control the situation on the earth.
What they need to do is to monitor the development of various forces on the earth, eliminate entities that threaten the security of the earth, protect the security of the earth, and respond to threats from alien planets.
Therefore, Eric Killmonger, who grew up under the training of Hydra, is not as cruel and murderous as in the movie, although he still inherits the ideals of his father Nijob and wants to help millions of people on the earth.
Hundreds of millions of black compatriots have escaped poverty and backwardness.
It's just that Eric is not as radical as Nejobu, trying to overthrow governments of various countries through force and let black people rule the world.
As a member of Hydra, his vision is no longer so narrow. In his eyes, all humans on the earth are his compatriots and need him to protect them. However, relatively speaking, those black people who live in poverty need him more.
Not only black people, there are 2 billion people living in poverty in the world, and these people all need his help.
And now Chen Mo gave him such an opportunity.
After returning to his hometown of Wakanda and becoming the king of Wakanda, he can use the power of Wakanda to help those in need according to his ideas.
He also got a detailed understanding of the circumstances of his father's murder that year from Chen Mo. As the god they believed in, an omniscient and omnipotent existence, he naturally had no doubts about what Chen Mo said. He had no doubts about his father Nejobu, King T'Chaka, and the high priest.
Zu Li, he also has his own understanding.
They all have their own ideals and codes of conduct, and work hard for their own goals, but unfortunately, their goals are contradictory, and this contradiction ultimately makes them stand on opposite sides.
And their own weakness, cowardice and extremeness further intensified this contradiction, and ultimately led to the final tragic ending.
His father's initial starting point was good, to save the black compatriots living in misery, but unfortunately he chose the wrong method. Because of his paranoia and radicalism, in order to achieve his ideas, he betrayed his motherland and
Ulysses Klaue was sent into Wakanda and brought huge destruction and casualties to Wakanda. This was his father's mistake and he was guilty!
Zu Li, as the spy sent by the king to monitor Niqobu, only reported the situation he discovered truthfully. Although he betrayed Niqobu, the boss who trusted him, there was nothing wrong in terms of national justice!
T'Chaka personally killed his father's murderer and abandoned the mother and son, leaving them to fend for themselves in a slum in a foreign country.
To be honest, Eric hated him in his heart, but according to Chen Mo, he originally wanted to bring Nejob, who had betrayed his tribe, back to Wakanda to face trial by the Council of Elders and give him a fair verdict.
It's just that his father Nijobu hated Zu Li's betrayal and raised a gun to kill him. In order to save Zu Li, T'Chaka accidentally killed him.
As for the regret he felt for abandoning the two of them and killing his brother with his own hands, he did not have the courage to face them both, so he chose to escape.
He was at fault in this matter, but the crime will not lead to death. If he is Eric Killmonger in the movie, he will naturally not care who is right and wrong, all he wants is revenge.
But Eric Killmonger at this time is different from the one in the movie. Although in the eyes of the outside world, he still climbed out of the slum step by step, he must have suffered a lot, and he must have suffered a lot for T'Chaka and others.
Hate to the core.
But in fact, after his father died, he was recruited by Hydra and carefully trained, and his mother was well settled, so the life of more than 20 years after his father's death was not too big for him.
How painful it is to hate T'Chaka just because he killed his father.
With the training of Hydra, as well as the subtle influence and brainwashing for more than 20 years, Eric Killmonger's mind is not as twisted as in the movie, and he is not as bloodthirsty and ruthless as he looks on the outside.
, on the contrary, he has his own calm and wise views on many things.
Although T'Chaka killed his father, his new values and beliefs prevented him from actually killing him to avenge his father. Just like in the movie, Black Panther let go of Baron Zemo who killed his father.
The hatred continues.
He believes in fairness and justice, and he himself is a member of the people who maintain justice on earth, so he will take away King T'Chaka's throne and give him a fair trial, just like he wanted to give his father, Prince Nejobu.
Likewise, the Elders will make a fair judgment against him based on the traditions and rules of Wakanda. No matter what the outcome is, he will accept it and completely let go of this hatred.
This is the change caused by Hydra's more than 20 years of training in him. Eric is still Eric, but his heart and thoughts are completely different. Paranoia, radicalism, cruelty, and murder have not appeared in him.
In body, on the contrary, Hydra shaped him to be calm, wise, meticulous and philanthropic.
He is more suitable to be the king of Wakanda than Chaka, and he will surely lead Wakanda out of its negative world, stand on the world stage as a powerful country, and show its power to the world.
Use their power to benefit the entire world and realize the true rise of Wakanda!
