Chapter 355: Battle of Naboo (7)

355, Battle of Naboo (7)

Sheev Palpatine, who was attending a political rally on the Pelemi Orbital Space Station, had to end the rally early and return to Coruscant. Although he wanted to stay at the rally, a series of unexpected events on the planet Naboo made him unable to do so.

Without remote control, at least the two idiots Newt Gunray and Rune Harkou wouldn't really mess things up.

Because just yesterday, after he gave the order for Newt Gunray to kill the two Jedi who went to the planet Naboo to mediate, Newt Gunray never mentioned it again, including when they later occupied Naboo.

When the whole planet captured Queen Amidala, they also didn't mention it when they sent him the news of success.

Darth Sidious only thought that the two Jedi Knights had been killed, just like what he had done before with the remote-controlled mercenary Velma on the planet Inchori. Killing the Jedi Knights was, for his layout,

It's not that difficult a thing.

Now that the planet Naboo has been occupied, all that remains is to get Queen Amidala to sign a surrender treaty as soon as possible, so that he can overturn the situation in the parliament and legalize the occupation of the Trade Federation.

"Newt Gunray, since you have captured Queen Amidala, she must have signed the surrender treaty now, right?" Darth Sidious asked in the communication.

"Well...that...Lord Sidious..." Newt Gunray looked frightened, lowering his head and not daring to look at Sidious's expression, "The Queen...she disappeared..."

"What did you say? She disappeared?!" Darth Sidious was stunned for a moment. Even if the city was as well-mannered as he was, he was almost furious with the news, but he couldn't lose his composure and could only forcefully suppress the anger in his heart.

Suppress it and force yourself to be calm.

"Yes, when we escorted Queen Amidala to the concentration camp, the two Jedi suddenly attacked the escorting team, rescued the queen, and also robbed a Naboo royal spaceship to break through our blockade.

The thread escaped..." Newt Gunray lowered his head and said.

He also understood that what he did was really stupid. Even if the Queen was rescued, he actually let them grab the spaceship! Even if they grabbed the spaceship, the blockade of 60 Rookery Hook-class cargo ships was actually blocked.

So breached by a Naboo royal ship?!

This is really a shameful failure that would be shameless to tell anyone!

Newt Gunray kept making excuses for himself in his mind. For example, the spaceships in the blockade were all cargo ships. Only 10 of them were equipped with turrets, and the coverage of the installed turrets was very unsatisfactory. Moreover, all the Vulture robot fighters they carried escorted C-9979.

The landing ship has entered the atmosphere of the planet Naboo and is not at the blockade.

However, the expected thunderous wrath of Darth Sidious did not come. He just said coldly: "I want you to find the queen and capture her and bring her back to sign the peace treaty! The time I can delay in the parliament is limited!"

"But... we have no idea where her spaceship went..." Newt Gunray's voice became smaller and smaller.

"Sith, omnipotent!" Darth Sidious said through gritted teeth. He waved, and Darth Maul came over and stood behind him, looking at the two idiots in front of him fiercely, "This is me.

Your apprentice Darth Maul, he will help you find the queen and kill the two Jedi!"

The communication was shut down, and Rune Harkor looked at Newt Gunray in horror and said: "Things are starting to get out of control! How come I didn't know there was a second Sith! How many are there?! Let's start from the beginning

You shouldn’t make a deal with such a terrifying existence!”

"Don't mention this matter again! At least they can help us sit in a high position and control the entire Trade Federation!" Before Sidious's terrifying figure, Newt Gunray had regained some dignity, and he sternly said

Said: "The most critical thing now is to find Queen Amidala as soon as possible! Otherwise, if the time drags on too long, the Republic Council will really make trouble for us!"

He looked at the planet Naboo outside the port window and said: "Disperse our entire fleet! Search for traces of Queen Amidala in all the surrounding galaxies. Be sure to catch her!"

"But what about the planet Naboo?" Rune-Harkor asked.

"The battle on the planet Naboo is over! We have occupied the planet, and naturally there is no need to blockade it. Moreover, we still have an army of 2 million robots on the planet. It is impossible for the planet Naboo to have any force that can match it.

! Leave our flagship as the robot control ship, and the other spaceships will set off immediately!" Newt Gunray said decisively, "And this can also reduce some of our political pressure."



At the same time, Queen Amidala and her party, who miraculously escaped with the help of Qui-Gon Jinn and Obi-Wan Kenobi, also encountered trouble.

When they broke through the blockade, the spacecraft engine was hit by the firepower of the Trade Federation blockade fleet, and the hyperspace engine was damaged. They had to fly to a nearby planet to seek help, and their chosen target was the planet Tatooine.

"An armed conflict on the scale of a civil war broke out on the planet Tatooine a year ago. Going to this planet now is definitely the most dangerous." said Security Minister Panaka, who escaped with Queen Amidala.

"In this case, our enemies will not think that we will come here. In short, Tatooine is located in the Hutt space. As long as we do not provoke the Hutts, we will not have much trouble, at least not more than now.

Oops." Qui-Gon Jinn said, "Until we repair the hyperspace engine, we cannot open communications, otherwise we will be tracked by them."

"There are two big cities on the planet Tatooine, Mos Eisley City and Mos Espa Port. Where are we going?" Obi-Wan Kenobi asked.

"Let's go to Port Mos Espa, the chaos there can just protect us." Qui-Gon Jinn made a decision.

The spaceship landed in Mos Espa Port. Qui-Gon Jinn and Obi-Wan Kenobi decided to try their luck in this city that can be described as a refugee camp, a slum or simply a ruin. Queen Amidala's men

One of the maids also insisted on going with them.

In the chaotic alleyways of the city, Qui-Gon Jinn suddenly saw some Cali men in black uniforms patrolling around among the crowd. They were extremely ferocious and would punch and kick local residents if they disagreed.

Dare to be angry but dare not speak. Whenever they see these Kali people, they bow their heads and leave.

"Be careful not to be noticed by those Kali people." Qui-Gon Jinn pulled Obi-Wan and whispered: "I heard Master Ki-Adi Mundi say before that they are on the planet Seriya.

They appeared during the civil war. They were the Kali people of Titan Security. They belonged to the fourth group and were in the same group as the Trade Federation."

"Planet Theria...The Fourth Group...Titan Security..." Obi-Wan Kenobi hid in the shadows, looking at the ferocious Kali people, and some bad memories came to his mind.

But fortunately, because these Kali people are too ferocious, as the saying goes, a strong dragon cannot suppress a local snake, no matter what they want to do on Tatooine, it is difficult, and the residents do not buy their account at all, Qui-Gon Jinn and the others

Neither was found.
