671. Traces of Venomous Fangs
Obi-Wan-Kenobi said, "... I will take full responsibility for the battle that occurred at Christophsis. During the battle, our communication system was invaded by Separatists spies and implanted Trojans, resulting in the issuance of wrong instructions. Moreover, we also lost the battle because of the paralysis of the communication system."
"This is an unforeseen factor!" Wullf-Admiral Yularen stepped forward and said loudly, "We could not have predicted the betrayal of a Clone Trooper! This shows that the soldiers Kaminoans handed over to us are flawed!"
The judge looked at Anakin-Skywalker and asked, "So Jedi Knight Anakin-Skywalker, do you have anything to say about this traitorous Clone Trooper, CI-3331?"
Anakin-Skywalker looked solemn from the beginning, and he said slowly, "I did not expect Slick's betrayal, but I cannot absolve myself of the blame for my neglect of management of the soldiers. I have nothing to say about this failure."
Ahsoka-Tano kept lowering his head and playing with the lapel of his clothes, looking frustrated and saying nothing.
After listening to statements from all parties, the judge announced that the verdict would be announced on another day. Prior to that, Obi-Wan-Kenobi and others were relieved of all duties and returned to Jedi Temple for retreat.
"It's not your fault, kid." Speaker Sheev-Palpatine's face was full of regret. He came to Anakin, patted him on the shoulder, then pointed out the window and said, "Look here, this is the world you protect. No matter how many failures you endure, you still can't change this fact."
Anakin-Skywalker lowered his head and said, "I have betrayed your trust, His Excellency the Chancellor. I have also betrayed the trust of the people."
"They have put you through too much. You should not be responsible for this failure, Anakin. However, I very much agree with one of the decisions of the military court - you should take a good rest." Palpatine smiled kindly.
"I will return to Jedi Temple for a retreat to reflect on everything I have experienced..." Anakin said.
"Then throw away your responsibility?" Palpatine turned back with some confusion.
"My... responsibility?" Anakin was also a little strange.
Palpatine- smiled slightly and said, "Senator Amidala, you're awake."
"Really!... Well, this is good news." Anakin almost couldn't contain the ecstasy in his heart, but he calmed down immediately.
"She needs to be protected now more than anyone else, Anakin. This is your duty, an unfinished duty." Palpatine said, "I will issue an administrative order to Jedi Order. Of course, it can only be a suggestion, but I don't think Master Windu will veto this suggestion."
Anakin-Skywalker took a deep breath, and his confused eyes became firm again, "This time, I will fulfill my duties, and I will not let anyone hurt Senator Amidala again!"
Palpatine smiled and nodded, "I always believe in your potential, Anakin. You should be unparalleled. Go ahead and don't let anyone stop you."
The spaceship landed on Naboo, and Anakin-Skywalker rushed out of the passenger spaceship like the wind, and took a Speeder straight to Padmé-Senator Amidala's residence in the suburbs of Theed City.
The door opened, and Padmé floated out in a suspended wheelchair. He burst into tears when he saw the young Jedi Knight in front of him, although he had not seen him for a few months, but his face had been tempered by the war.
Anakin could no longer hold back the excitement in his heart. He rushed forward and hugged each other tightly. Their hot lips pressed together tightly, feeling each other's breath and body temperature.
After a long time, they separated reluctantly. Anakin stroked the dry and bifurcated hair on Padmé's temples and his obviously thin cheeks, "I always thought I would never see you wake up again, Padmé... I..."
Before he could finish his words, everything he had experienced on the battlefield in the past few months came to his mind, and tears couldn't stop flowing out. He took a deep breath to stop himself from bursting into tears.
Padmé helped him wipe the tears from the corners of his eyes and said softly, "I am here all the time... I have experienced death, and I never want to be separated from you... ever..."
They lingered for a long time, talking to each other, and couldn't bear to separate until sunset.
"How long have you been awake?" Anakin asked.
"Four days ago. I also heard about what happened to you at Christophsis... I'm sorry, if I were still in the parliament, I would never let you suffer like this Judgment." Padmé said.
"I just hope you are safe and sound. Compared with this, accepting Judgment is nothing." Anakin hugged Padmé's hands with more strength, and then reluctantly separated, "I still need to see my mother."
"She is well taken care of. Let me go with you." Padmé said.
The two came to the secret residence of Anakin's mother, Shmi-Skywalker. A etiquette robot C3-PO installed with a golden shell opened the door. After seeing the two people, the electronically synthesized voice actually had a sense of surprise, "I'm glad to see you returned home safely, Master."
"How is mother?" Anakin asked.
"From a biological point of view, her body is very healthy." Another deep voice came, Rock-Johnson walked out, "But from a human point of view, she currently does not have a sufficient level of intelligence."
After returning from Geonosis where the war broke out, Rock-Johnson also went to Naboo to guard Shmi-Skywalker.
Anakin came to his mother, knelt on the ground, put his head on his mother's knees, and closed his eyes.
Shmi-Skywalker stroked Anakin's back and said somewhat dullly, "Little Ani, you work so hard every day picking up trash outside..."
"Picking up garbage?" Anakin was stunned for a moment, then his eyes turned cold, "Yes, I am indeed picking up garbage..."
With the end of Battle of Bespin, Battle of Christophsis and Battle of Falrin, Galactic Republic, which had lost most of its mobile fleet, had to shrink its defense line, but Confederacy of Independent Systems did not stop its progress. The powerful fleet attacked everywhere, spreading the war to more planets.
Phu Planet (Phu) In outer space, a squadron of five Hunter Class Battlecruisers left hyperspace and arrived here, preparing to establish a defense line here.
However, at this moment, the hyperspace detection device suddenly sounded an alarm, followed by a flash of white light, and a huge battleship broke away from the hyperspace channel and appeared in front of them!
The huge size of 4845 meters and the bow that looks like a bloody mouth make this battleship full of oppression. The only fly in the ointment is that a piece is broken below the bow of this battleship, as if a piece of its chin is missing.
Republic sub-fleet commander is a Puii native Jedi Master, Ares Nune. Seeing the appearance of this huge battleship, he immediately reacted and said loudly, "Send a request for help to Galactic Republic immediately! We have discovered the super battleship of Separatists!"
"General! The enemy ship launched a powerful electronic interference! Our communications cannot be sent out!" the communications soldier exclaimed.
