Fourth Scourge of Star Wars

Chapter 497: Another Assassination

(Star Wars: Episode II: Attack of the Clones begins here. Yes, the time span between Part 1 and Part 2 is 10 years, and the time between Part 2 and Part 3 The span is 3 years. In addition, as before, I will try to write the plot of the movie as briefly as possible, but it must be written and cannot be skipped, otherwise, it will affect the reading experience. By the way, I will also write many plots that have not been filmed Write it down.)

The 13th year of the Great Synchronization Calendar of the Galactic Republic (22BBY), March 16th.

Today is a very important day, because just today, the Senate of the Galactic Republic will formally vote on the "Military Creation Act". Switch to war mode.

Naboo Senator Padmé Amidala is also preparing to take her own spaceship to Coruscant to vote. In this bill, she will firmly vote against it, because she insists that if the Galactic Republic passes the "Military Creation Act", it will give the Separatists an excuse to completely detonate the war.

During her tenure as Naboo Senator, she has worked to bring peace to the Galactic Republic, calling for restraint on many fronts in the Senate and resolving issues at the negotiating table.

But in fact, in this time when both sides want to go to war, her voice is so weak and powerless, but even so, because of her outstanding personal charm and charisma, there are still a large number of Senators who neither want to join Separatism, nor want to go to war, and those who are in a state of confusion gather around her.

By 22BBY Senator Padmé Amidala had become the leader of a Major Political Faction. Fighting against the "Loyalty Committee" as Palpatine's henchman, the "New Rim Faction" of Francis Underwood's Outer Rim Senators, and the Senators of those old developed planets, including Kuat.

They have been working hard in the Senate to fight for peace for the Galactic Republic, and unlike other factions with ulterior motives, they really do not want war and hope that the Republic can move towards peace and unification, and can go further and become better.

During the recent period, Padmé Amidala has been staying on Naboo as the Separatist Movement has intensified, and even within Naboo, there have been voices wanting to join the Separatist Movement and resist the Republic.

Planet Naboo is located between the Middle and Outer Rims of the Milky Way, so it is not surprising that such a voice can appear. Fortunately, because the Trade Federation's invasion of Naboo was defeated in the Battle of Naboo, the people of Planet Naboo hated these Corporate Giants, so the Planet's authorities were able to fight against the rising tide of Separatism standing firm.

After the bombing of the Galactic Capitol a month ago, everyone on Coruscant is now in danger. Senator Padmé Amidala's personal Security Guard and Assistant, Gregar Typho, has always opposed her going to Coruscant because as an Anti-War Political Leader, they must have countless pairs of malicious eyes staring at her.

"Only today, I have to go, Typho. This vote is very important." Padmé Amidala said to the communicator while putting on a gorgeous dress with the help of the maid.

"But your Excellency, the result of this vote can no longer be reversed. Now you just gave those opponents an opportunity." Typho said on the communicator.

"The result is not important anymore Typho, I know that we are powerless to stop this war now, but I must press the button in front of Supreme Chancellor Palpatine under the eyes of countless Senators and in front of Supreme Chancellor Palpatine for this negative vote." Padmé sighed, but her eyes were full of determination, "If I don't speak out for them, then there will be no peaceful voice in this Galaxy."

In the afternoon, a Naboo Royal Cruiser arrived in Coruscant under the escort of three N-1 Starfighters and docked on a towering apron near the Capitol.

Sure enough, just as the spaceship stopped, there was a sudden violent explosion! This explosion directly blew up the Naboo Royal Cruiser to pieces, and even those who were about to step off the spaceship were swept in by the explosion, and all of them died!

At this moment, Padmé Amidala jumped out of one of the N-1 Starfighters, and her substitute friend was on the Cruiser.

Padmé stared dumbfounded at the burning tarmac in front of her, and murmured, "No... I shouldn't have come... Actually..."

She never thought that the bombing of the Senate Building that happened just a month ago would happen to her now. If she hadn't continued her security habits as the Queen of Naboo and used a double in public, the person who was killed by the bombing now would be her.

Hearing that the Senator of Naboo was attacked again, Supreme Chancellor Sheev Palpatine urgently announced that the voting time for the "Military Creation Act" would be postponed until tomorrow.

His approach looks as if he respects Padmé Amidala very much. Even though everyone knows that Padmé will vote against him with the peaceful Senators around her, he will still respect Padmé Amidala's choice and does not hesitate to postpone the vote for this negative vote.

This approach has once again won many praises.

Palpatine is such a scheming person, he is often willing to help his enemies, but he himself will always benefit invisibly.

Then, Palpatine urgently summoned the Jedi Order.

Because of the seriousness of the situation, several members of the High Council of the Jedi Order, including Master Windu and Yoda, were summoned to the Supreme Chancellor's Office for discussion.

They discussed the imminent war again, and this time, the Jedi Order showed no opposition to the war. Master Windu, as usual, only meant that the Jedi Order was incapable of dealing with a full-scale war, but he did not propose to oppose war.

As always, Master Yoda's focus is on the Dark Side of The Force, and he is also silent about this war.

Silence often means acquiescence.

They also chatted about the assassination of Senator Padmé, but they did not come to a conclusion. Because of Padmé-Amidala's political inclination, it would be a thankless task to assassinate her, no matter which side she stood on.

In the end, Supreme Chancellor Palpatine proposed that the Jedi Order protect Senator Padmé.

For this matter, Padmé Amidala, who just came to the Supreme Chancellor's office, expressed objection. In fact, even if they are constantly fighting for peace, Padmé Amidala has the same attitude as many other members of the Senate. After experiencing countless things before, they no longer trust the Jedi Knights.

"I believe that sending a Jedi who is very familiar to Senator Padmé to protect her personally will be a choice that bests both worlds." Supreme Chancellor Palpatine said, "I propose that Anakin Skywalker and his Master Obi-Wan Kenobi go to protect current novℯls on fre𝒆web(n)ovel.co(m)
