2254. The black hand stirring up the situation
"Hahahaha!" A burst of mocking laughter echoed in a luxurious palace.
All he saw was a young man with long silver hair, a sinister face, and a scar on his face, drinking and having fun with two beautiful women wearing only hair in his arms.
This terrifying man is the leader of Zann Consortium, Shen Qiaoen's proud disciple—Tiber-Zayne.
"You mean, that guy Pre-Vizsla took the initiative to start a fight, but within a week he was shouting in front of a group of civilians that it was too much? Hahahahaha!!" Tiber-Zayne laughed so hard.
His crony, Ulay Fen, stood in front of him and said calmly, "That's right. He originally thought that the war would end within two or three days, but it lasted for more than a week, and he only captured Secundus City, a city controlled by the Rebel Alliance. And when Rebel Alliance started to counterattack, he had no supplies at all."
Tiber-Zayne raised his hand and pushed the two women beside him away. He was so strong that he pushed them to roll on the ground several times and hit the wall. Although the two women were in pain, they did not dare to say a word and just retreated with tears in their eyes.
"Then what? He came crying and begging me for something?" Tiber-Zayne said with a sinister smile.
"It's not like we are crying for our parents. On the contrary, he is threatening us." Ulay Fen said lightly, "He said that if we don't support him to win the war, he will hand over Mandalore to the Galactic Empire."
Tiber-Zayne showed an exaggerated expression, "Oh~~Leave it to the Galactic Empire! Our Pre-Vizsla was really thoughtful and hit our vital point at once! What should I do? I'm so scared... Tell him that there is not even a small can of explosive gas."
"I suggest that it is better to provide him with a little supply, at least to sustain him until the coronation ceremony five days later." Ulay Fen said.
"Well, that makes sense. Let's just do it." Tiber-Zayne thought for a while and waved his hand, "Give him a little thought and let him be crowned and ascended the throne with great fanfare. Ah... True Mandalor, what a resounding name, this will definitely be the most famous ruler in the Mandalorian history!"
"Then, when he starts the ceremony, the person who kills him and interrupts the ceremony will become a hero." Ulay Fen said slowly.
"Who is our brave hero? Jango-Fett, or Bo-Katan-Kryze?" Tiber-Zayne said, laughing again, "Hahahahahahaha!"
After laughing for a while, his expression suddenly calmed down and he asked in a deep voice, "Silri, how is she doing over there?"
"She is now at Smuggler's Moon-Nal Hutta, and she is ready. She has already negotiated with Black Sun." Ulay Fen said, "Just wait for Savage-Opress to meet her there, and then you can take action against Black Sun."
"Hahahaha!" Tiber-Zayne stood up, walked to the window and opened his hands, letting the sunlight shine on his bare chest. The solid muscles were covered with scars. It is not difficult to imagine how much pain he suffered when he was trained by Shen Qiaoen.
"I've been waiting for this day for a long time. It's time for them to take the field..." Tiber-Zayne laughed ferociously, "Dasi... Maul."
"Hahahahaha!"
"Ahahahahahaha~~~!!!"
Demonic laughter echoed in the air through the window.
In the distance, a tattered Hunter Class Battlecruiser was dropped from the sky, and countless fragments and parts began to scatter in mid-air.
Rumble, rumble... The battleship fell on the debris pile, making a dull loud noise, like thunder. However, no flames or explosions occurred. When the battleship was dropped, all fuel and energy supplies had been removed.
On the ground, there are piles of shipwrecks, as well as the remains of countless robots. In mid-air, countless engineering robots and engineering spacecraft are sorting and processing these countless fragments, and then disassembling useful things.
The warship models that can be seen from this mountain of scrap iron include Hunter Class, Victory-class, Luukri-Hok-class, Divine-class, Generous-class, Defiant-class, etc. You can even see the remains of the battleships Kohl-class, Hiigaran-class and Duchy of Dawn.
Here it is, Saleucami Planet.
It was once one of the main battlefields in Clone Wars and also the battlefield with the longest duration of the campaign. This is Confederacy of Independent Systems's last fortress and fleet gathering place.
After Darth-Vader captured Saleucami Planet, the destruction of Confederacy of Independent Systems was also announced.
However, now, Tiber-Zayne has launched the garbage disposal business of Zann Consortium here! This is simply incredible.
Especially now that Zann Consortium has been regarded as a criminal group by the Galactic Empire, they can still blatantly continue to smuggle battleship wreckage for recycling and transformation business.
There is only one answer to this - Zann Consortium, which is supported by a powerful person within the Galactic Empire. Moreover, this is definitely not official support.
Saleucami Planet once assembled Confederacy of Independent Systems thousands of capital ships, plus tens of thousands of small and medium-sized warships of various types, as well as a large number of armed space stations, Gauss Defense Platform and other orbital defense systems. And when attacking this planet, Galactic Empire also sent a larger number of warships, and at the same time suffered very heavy losses.
In other words, if Zann Consortium launches its garbage recycling business here, they will have an almost endless supply of battleship wreckage to use!
In the eyes of Tiber-Zayne, although they are young, but extremely sinister and cruel, it is impossible to see through what he is planning!
The only thing that can be determined is that whether it is Galactic Empire or Duchy of Dawn, they are all within the scope of his calculations!
Meanwhile, Dathomir planet.
Zabrak, who was extremely tall and tall, with yellow skin and black markings, pushed the door and walked into a very hidden underground base. Wearing heavy armor and looking fierce, he was discovered and trained by Mother Talzin of Nightsister Order, and then handed over to Count Dooku as a killer by Night brothers - Savage-Opress.
He walked into one of the laboratories and saw a large Bacta tank over four meters high, filled with expensive Bacta fluid.
This is top-notch medical treatment that only a few people can enjoy. With so many Bacta fluid, the price is completely astronomical.
Savage-Opress looked up at the huge Bacta tank and examined a person standing inside, connected by countless pipelines.
No, I should say, half a person. Because this man only has the upper body, but his lower body is missing.
This is Zabrak with half red skin, black lines, and an extremely ferocious face...
That's right, Darth-Maul!
Savage-Opress suddenly felt something and suddenly looked up, only to find Das-Maul opening his eyes and staring at him! In the eyes, the golden light looked extremely terrifying!
"My brother! You finally woke up!" Savage-Opress was extremely surprised, "How do you feel?"
Das-Maul opened his mouth, revealing the sharp and jagged teeth. He moved his mouth, and the low and terrifying voice suddenly sounded around him through the vibration of the Force, "Yes! I'm awake! And... better than ever!"
Savage-Opress pressed the button, and Bacta fluid was immediately emptied. Inside the jar, two mechanical arms grabbed Das-Maul's shoulders to prevent him from falling.
While the glass cover was rising, Das-Maul grabbed it with his backhand. The powerful the Force directly crushed the two mechanical arms into pieces, and then he slapped the jar suddenly, boom!!!
Bacta tank was shot into pieces. At the same time, Das-Maul's body jumped up directly and accurately landed on the two mechanical legs on the other side of the laboratory. In the center of the mechanical leg, the centipede-like device pierced directly into Darth-Maul's spine. The huge pain caused him to let out a ferocious roar, followed by a ferocious laugh.
"Ah!!! Hahahaha! I finally... woke up!! Obi-Wan-Kenobi! Today is the day you die!!" Das-Maul laughed wildly.
Squeak~~~Woo~~~~With the sound of a mechanical motor, Das-Maul stood up with the support of his mechanical feet. He raised his feet and moved around for a while. The movements were still a bit jerky. After all, he had lost his legs for nearly 20 years.
"Savage, my brother, I feel a powerful force from you that is no less powerful than mine! Have you completed the training? Hahahaha!" Das-Maul asked, "Then tell me, when is it now?!"
"It has been 20 years since you were injured in Naboo." Savage-Opress said in a deep voice, and then he roughly told what happened in the past 20 years.
From the failure of Naboo Blockade, to Palpatine becoming Chancellor of the Republic, to ten years of conspiracy calculations, to the outbreak of war, Clone Army The establishment of... then, it took nearly three years for Clone Wars, the destruction of Jedi Order, the rise of Duchy of Dawn, and the establishment of the Galactic Empire.
And the subsequent four-year siege of Saleucami Planet, the destruction of Confederacy of Independent Systems, and the death of Count Dooku. In the end, it was the overt and covert struggle between Duchy of Dawn and Galactic Empire, until now...
By the time I was almost finished, more than two hours had passed. But Das-Maul, uncharacteristically, listened quietly and did not do anything too drastic.
"Dass-Sidious and Darth-Malthael... they have actually reached this level!" Das-Maul said in a deep voice, "I have witnessed their past, one is Naboo Senator, one is Governor of Dawn Star Planet... But in just 20 years, they have become Emperor of the Empire, and Grand Duke of Dawn, they have all succeeded..."
He said with clenched teeth and a fierce look in his eyes, "I can indeed feel the vast darkness and despair from the Force..."
"What did you see? My brother." Savage-Opress asked.
"This era no longer belongs to me. I have been sleeping for too long. Although Das-Sidious is nominally my master, I have no use value to him." Das-Maul said, seeming a little frustrated, "It's too late."
Savage-Opress said, "No, brother! We still have a chance!"
Darth-Maul was arrogant and irritable when he just woke up. Now after feeling the boundlessness and depth of Dark Side Force, what followed was deep despair, "I know Darth-Sidious better than you! I understand all his plans! Now he has become Emperor of the Empire, but his master Das-Pregas has disappeared without a trace, which shows everything. His plan has been successful, Jedi Order and Galactic Republic have been eliminated! Das-Sidious will not leave any space for us..."
He looked to the other side and continued, "As for Darth-Malthael... I don't know much about him. I even heard about Sith title today. But I know what kind of existence he was 20 years ago. Comparing the two, you can see how much forbearance and development he has experienced! They will not let more uncontrollable factors appear in this galaxy... The hegemony of the galaxy is born between the two of them."
However, at this moment, Savage-Opress showed a weird smile, "Brother, no one can control the entire galaxy, no one! Just like now, we are... the biggest variable in this galaxy!"
He didn't say anything about Shen Qiaoen and Zann Consortium just now.
"You... what happened? Where is Mother Talzin?" Das-Maul finally realized something was wrong.
"Mother Talzin is now one of us..." Savage-Opress said with great pride and pride, "We rose from the ruins and developed in the shadows! In that corner that neither Galactic Empire nor Duchy of Dawn can touch, we established our own Shadow Empire!"
"This is not something you can do! Tell me, who is that!" Das-Maul's eyes became extremely fierce. He hated the feeling of being manipulated as a puppet.
"You should have heard of this name..." Savage-Opress said slowly, "Dasi-Tenebrus..."
Das-Maul's face suddenly changed. He took several steps back and said sternly, "I have heard of this name! I have heard it!! That is... that is Das-Pregas's master! But neither Das-Sidious nor Das-Pregas rarely mention this name!"
"Darth-Tenebrus, planned all of this! He played both sides between Darth-Sidious and Darth-Malthael, developed secretly, and finally chose this place - Dathomir planet!"
"Are we at Dathomir planet?" Das-Maul came to the door and sensed the Force, "No... this is not the feeling Dathomir once gave me!"
