In April [[2526]], during [[Operation: SILENT STORM]], the [[SPARTAN-II]]'s and [[21st Space Assault Battalion|Black Daggers]] armed themselves with octas alongside [[HAVOK tactical nuclear weapon]]s for an attack on the Covenant planet of [[Zhoist]] and the [[Ring of Mighty Abundance]]. During the mission, the Spartans and Black Daggers of [[Blue Team|Blue]] and [[Green Team]]s planted octas throughout the facilities of the Ring they passed through, destroying each facility.<ref>'''[[Halo: Silent Storm]]''', ''chapters 26-27''</ref> | |||
During the battle, eight of Green Team's Black Daggers were picked up by ships of the [[Fleet of Inexorable Obedience]]. The Black Daggers managed to sneak their octas onboard with them when they were captured, running on the sixty minute automatic countdown and as a result, only laughed in the faces of their captors when interrogated. When the timer ran out, the eight octas detonated, destroying six Covenant ships to the astonishment of the watching UNSC forces from their hidden [[Prowler]]s who realized what the Black Daggers must've done even after being defeated.<ref>'''[[Halo: Silent Storm]]''', ''epilogue''</ref> | |||
