Chapter 62 - the terrifying avalanche

unleashed a chaotic, terrifying avalanche of heavy iron rods, local firecrackers, and precise military rounds down into the narrow metal corridor.The mercenaries were caught in a brutal crossfire inside a solid steel cage. They scrambled frantically, trying to find cover, but Kazeem was moving the massive harbor cranes back and forth like a god playing chess, dropping twenty-ton metal boxes from the sky, completely crushing their tactical lines and trapping them in a maze that was actively shifting.Within exactly four minutes of total, chaotic destruction, the automatic gunfire faded, replaced by the heavy sound of the falling rain.Twenty-five of Valerie's elite international operators lay completely neutralized on the concrete floor, their weapons scattered in the pooling water. The remaining five, including the bleeding mercenary leader, threw their rifles onto the floor, lifting their hands in total, terrified surrender as Sledge and his boys descended from the containers like a human wave.Adekunle stepped out from the main gantry into the heavy rain. His tailored shirt was soaked, his skinhead buzz cut dripping with water, but his eyes held the absolute, supreme dominance of a young warlord who had just broken an international syndicate. He walked slowly over to the bleeding mercenary leader, pulled out his phone, and accepted an active video call from General Bello's private line.He turned the screen toward the defeated leader's face, showing the complete slaughter of the black-ops unit live to the Abuja office.General Bello sat behind his desk on the screen, his face completely pale, his starched uniform medals suddenly looking heavy and pathetic as his mind went entirely blank."General Bello," Adekunle whispered, his voice cutting through the storm like ice as he leaned over the phone camera. "Your international mercenaries just failed their final exams inside my shipping yard. My father takes the official oath of office as Chief of Army Staff in exactly three hours. Tell Valerie her two hundred million dollars now belongs to the trenches. The game is officially over."
