501.Clone Army
Kamino The capital Tipoca City is actually an extremely huge building complex on the sea. Countless saucer-shaped buildings stand in the sea full of stormy waves. This shape can minimize the impact of the waves on the buildings.
The fighter plane stopped on the tarmac. What surprised Obi-Wan-Kenobi was that even though he flew a fighter plane directly to Kaminoans's capital, they were not prepared at all. They just let him in generously and guided him on the course.
"I think Kaminoans is not a hospitable race R4, at least I have never heard of them. So, they just let me in like this. Is there any conspiracy?" Obi-Wan had no one to talk to, so he had to talk to his own navigation robot R4. By the way, it was also a record of the mission.
R4 made a beeping sound.
At this time, the door of the spaceport opened, and a Kaminoans with a slender neck, tall figure, and elegant figure walked out. She saluted Obi-Wan respectfully, and then said, "Jedi Master, our Prime Minister is waiting for you."
"Wait a minute, you mean, your Prime Minister is waiting for me?" Obi-Wan frowned.
"Yes, he has been looking forward to your arrival for a long time." Kaminoans said, "After all these years, we thought you had forgotten this place."
Obi-Wan frowned and listened to what she said, Kaminoans is waiting for the arrival of Jedi Knight? And Jedi Knight was here many years ago?
He followed this man all the way to the core of the city and met the Prime Minister of Kamino, Rama Su.
Rama Su bowed very politely and said, "You came at the right time, Jedi Master..."
"Obi-Wan-Kenobi." Obi-Wan introduced himself.
"Master Obi-Wan, I am honored to tell you that our work is going very smoothly and everything is going according to plan. 200,000 pieces of products are ready, and within the next six months, another 1 million pieces will be delivered." Rama-Su said, "Please tell Seve-Master Dias that we have lived up to his expectations and completed this project very well."
"You mean... Sev-Master Dias?" Obi-Wan frowned.
"Yes, this project was initiated by him. I think he should still be one of the members of Jedi Order High Council, right?" Rama Su said.
"No, Seve-Master Dias was killed 10 years ago." Obi-Wan-Kenobi was full of doubts, not knowing what Seve-Master Dias was doing with Kaminoans.
There were more and more doubts in his mind, so much so that he did not notice one of the details, that is, Rama-Su still believed that Seve-Master Dias was one of the members of High Council, but in fact, Seve-Dias was expelled from High Council by Master Windu 11 years ago.
"I'm sorry for his death." Rama-Su said lightly. Kaminoans is very dull in terms of emotions, let alone a distant Jedi Master, but he still added, "I think... he will definitely be extremely proud of the army we built for him."
"An army?"
"That's right, a Clone Army built for Galactic Republic. A Clone Army that is more powerful and more efficient than robots." Rama Su stood up, "I think you can't wait to review this army, right?"
And next, Obi-Wan-Kenobi saw a spectacular sight that he would never forget in his life!
Millions of embryos thrive in assembly-line laboratories, while clones of all ages are studied and trained according to their different stages.
They came all the way to a huge square in the periphery, only to see countless Clone Trooper wearing white combat armor, holding advanced standard DC-15A Blaster rifle, already lined up in square formations waiting for review.
These combat armors are quite similar in design to the Mandalorian commando armor, using lightweight polymer armor plates and a full-coverage helmet with a respirator and digital combat equipment. And because of Kaminoans's indifferent emotions, these armors are all white and look increasingly cold - although with Kaminoans's eyes, you can distinguish the subtle spectral color differences on these armors.
No matter from which angle you look at it, this army is extremely elite and powerful. If you look at it from the Galactic Republic Army that Obi-Wan-Kenobi knows, it is even more different!
But the question is, why would Seve-Master Dias build such an army?
The doubts in Obi-Wan-Kenobi's heart became more intense after seeing this army. Then, he learned from Rama-Su that this Clone Army's Primarch came from a bounty Hunter named Jango-Fett. Not only that, they also hired many other excellent bounty Hunter to train this Clone Army, making them better and more flexible, and able to adapt to every unexpected situation on the battlefield.
Obi-Wan-Kenobi frowned, and his intuition told him that there must be something wrong with this Jango-Fett! And he is so famous that even he knows that Jango-Fett is the title of Hunter, the strongest bounty in the galaxy.
After learning that Jango-Fett happened to be at Tipoca City at this time, Obi-Wan went to visit.
After seeing the person in person, Obi-Wan was even more certain that Jango-Fett was the one who wanted to assassinate Padmé-Senator Amidala! As long as we catch him and dig out the mastermind behind the scenes, everything will be revealed!
Now he didn't dare to be too presumptuous in Kaminoans's capital, so Obi-Wan returned to the space port and used the hyperspace communication on the Delta-7 fighter to report the matter to Jedi Order's leaders Master Yoda and Master Windu.
As expected, even Master Yoda and Master Windu didn't know about the Clone Army.
Master Windu frowned and said, "... It is absolutely impossible for us, Jedi Order, to build this army. Moreover, we don't have the money to build an army of such a size!"
"But Kaminoans's Prime Minister Rama-Su clearly said that Sever-Master Dias commissioned them to build the army." Obi-Wan said.
"Not only did they propose a commission, but they also brought financial support... There must be someone else behind Seve-Master Dias running this matter." Master Windu frowned.
"Jango-Fett said that he became Primarch on the commission of a person named Tyranus." Obi-Wan continued.
"Catch him back and interrogate Jango Fett." Master Yoda said.
"Yes." Obi-Wan nodded and closed the communication.
Master Yoda's eyes became extremely sharp in a rare way. He frowned and said, "We are blind. We are really blind. We have no feeling at all for an army built right under our noses."
"This shows that our control over the Force has been greatly weakened, and we can no longer see the future clearly." Master Windu said, "It's just that this army... If it was established for Galactic Republic, then why did the mastermind behind the scenes establish such an army?"
"Hmm..." Master Yoda didn't speak anymore, but looked ahead, thinking deeply.
Now that the war is getting closer and closer, the appearance of such an army is not a good thing in any case - for peace.
At the same time, at Kamino, after receiving instructions from Master Yoda, Obi-Wan-Kenobi decided to ignore Kaminoans's idea was to rush over and grab Jango-Fett. However, Jango-Fett had already sensed something was wrong and left first.
Obi-Wan-Kenobi pursued them in fighter planes, and tracked the hyperspace jump of Jango-Fett, all the way to a planet on the edge of the Milky Way.
Geonosis.
