Whether out of necessity or because it was feasible, this daring foray into the lion's den would be the Jedi Contractors' last chance to end this trial!
Kirk and Young Master Bai sighed. This Julia, as a member of the Universe God Race, was supremely confident, bold enough to take on anyone. Even when discussing the murder of the Sith Dark Lord, she was decisive and utterly unruffled. During the battle just now, Julia had spent a substantial amount of Contribution Value. She had thought she could stop Padmé from being kidnapped, but then Wang Han had appeared out of nowhere. Now, with her Contribution Value nearly depleted, she could only set her sights on this assassination mission.
Master Yoda brought two TIE fighters to a steady stop in front of Anakin, jumped down, and looked at him sternly.
Even though Anakin's temperament had changed drastically, Master Yoda's imposing presence still checked his fury. His gaze unconsciously softened.
"Senator Padmé was kidnapped?" Master Yoda stared into Anakin's face.
Anakin felt a warmth in his heart.
Though Master Yoda had never thought much of him, he had helped him again at this crucial moment. By calling Padmé a senator right off the bat, he had defined the incident as a kidnapping.
That meant Master Yoda, representing the Jedi Council, wouldn't immediately pursue the matter of Anakin and Padmé secretly marrying. Instead, he would first deal with the senator's kidnapping.
"Do you have any leads? Who did this?" Master Yoda pressed him.
"I suspect Supreme Chancellor Palpatine!" Moved by Master Yoda, Anakin resolutely revealed the greatest secret in his heart.
"Oh?" Master Yoda didn't seem as shocked as Anakin had expected. He appeared to have been prepared for the news. "Are you sure it was him? Why?"
"Because he's a Sith Lord!"
