Sacrificing One's Life for Righteousness (Part 2)
Boom! Boom! Boom!! One Vulture droid fighter after another turned into fireballs in midair and crashed down.
A blur streaked past as the Eta-2 fighter swept through at unimaginable speed and agility. Its blaster cannons fired with pinpoint accuracy, shooting down a Vulture droid fighter with every volley!
Beyond its precise firepower, even when facing the siege of hundreds of Vulture droid fighters, along with the powerful anti-aircraft fire of the Victory II-class Star Destroyer—a defensive force that would leave several fighter squadrons helpless—it remained completely untouchable.
The Eta-2 fighter had been specially developed for Jedi Knights. It had no shields, virtually no armor protection, and was extremely small. Yet it possessed unbelievable maneuverability. In the hands of a Jedi Knight, the Force's foresight would make this fighter unstoppable!
"You idiots! You bunch of idiots! Why can't so many of you shoot down a single fighter?!" Alfred Ashford roared in furious frustration. "Are there any more fighters? Get them all airborne! Take off!!"
But aside from yelling, there was nothing else he could do.
At that moment, the Eta-2 fighter made a wide turn through the air, shot down several more Vulture droid fighters, and the instant a gap appeared in the defensive line, it suddenly accelerated again and flew straight toward the hangar platform of the Victory II-class Star Destroyer.
Seeing this, Alfred felt his entire body turn cold!
He finally understood what this pilot, who was clearly a Jedi Knight, intended to do—he wanted to break into the interior of his warship!
And more importantly...
To facilitate takeoffs and landings, the doors of the hangar platforms on both sides of this Victory II-class Star Destroyer had been left open. At the same time, the ship's Deflector Shield had not been activated.
