In the CIA site, Ross interrogated Klaue, who revealed the true nature of Wakanda, a rich African country heavily relying on Vibranium. However, while Ross confronted Black Panther about the matter, Erik Killmonger blew a hole in the wall to rescue Klaue. Another gunfight erupted, in which Ross was heavily injured while Black Panther failed to stop Killmonger and Klaue. Facing this defeat, Black Panther, Okoye and Nakia left Busan with Ross.[1]
