Chapter 1238 So, What Kind of Monster Is That? !

"Shadow Bear Tibbers' Plane Journey ()"

Anakin really never imagined that ten years ago, he, his teacher and those Jedi masters were caught on this planet and almost shot to death! And ten years later, when he grew up and successfully counterattacked from a slave child on Tatooine to become a rich and handsome Jedi warrior, he was captured here again by the guys from the Separatist Alliance, and he and Padme And some Obi-Wan, who was also unlucky enough to get caught here twice, was hastily tried and sentenced to death by those Geonosians on ridiculous charges of 'spying'?

But it's okay now, he wasn't too worried...

That's not because Anakin is not afraid of death, but because he calculated the time several times and came up with a favorable number that is slightly dangerous to them? Anyway, no matter what, at least, he felt that what happened now was within his acceptable range.

Because, those damn Geonosians didn't directly pull the three of them out to shoot the battle robots, but held a 'farewell' ceremony very considerately, as if they wanted to put them in this huge ancient arena In the same place, countless Geonosians were allowed to witness the death of the three of them in some kind of ceremony?

And this is Anakin's chance!

So, he happily cooperated with the actions of those Geonosians, watched them put themselves on a suspended chariot and walked around the huge arena, and let them finish the demonstration Finally, he was tied to one of the four stone pillars in the middle of the arena and cheered and howled enthusiastically.

And when those insect-like Geonosians tied him up and flew away, did he realize that Padmé and Obi-Wan, who came before him, had been tied to the stone pillar for a long time?

"Padme!"

"Great, you don't have to be afraid, I'm here to save you..."

After watching those Geonosians tie themselves tightly to the stone pillars with iron chains and leave, Anakin smiled and looked at him with round eyes in disbelief. Padmé said with a grin.

Although, what he said over and over again, the words that came to rescue Padmé, didn't seem to be convincing at all?

"you……"

"Anakin!"

"I don't understand, you are...wrong! Why are you here? Shouldn't you have stayed on Naboo or returned to Coruscant?"

Thinking about the situation when Obi-Wan detected that Anakin was still staying in Naboo before he and others were arrested, Padmé couldn't help but be a little surprised and asked back with a sad expression.

Although she was very happy to be able to see the other side before she died, but that should never be the case! !

"Of course I came to save you!"

"The warships of the Trade Federation have attacked Naboo again. I know this negotiation must be a conspiracy, so I came to rescue you as soon as possible!"

Anakin hurriedly explained.

However, he did not say what happened on Naboo, nor did he say that his swarm had wiped out the fleet of the Trade Federation attacking Naboo and that he was sending the extremely powerful zerg battleship 'Leviathan' to Gio The thing about Nosys.

"Anakin..."

"I'm actually not afraid of death, it's just...it's just that I didn't expect that you would be implicated in the end..."

"You shouldn't have come..."

The other party can come and save herself immediately, Padmé said that it is impossible not to be moved, but she does not want to see the other party rushing to die in such a reckless manner, because it is not worth it, That would only make her feel more sad and blame herself after being moved!

"What nonsense are you talking about!"

"Padmé, do you know? If there is no you in this world, what is the meaning of this world?"

"No matter where you are, even if you go to hell together, I will accompany you without hesitation,

I will not be indifferent knowing that you are in danger here, never! ! "

Seeing the helpless and desolate expression on Padmé's face, Anakin couldn't bear to see her in such pain, so he hurriedly spoke softly to comfort him, and firmly stated that he himself did not regret breaking into Gionossi Si Xing here, even if they are tied here like this, ready to let those Geonosians watch them about to perform some kind of death!

'Anakin...'

'Padmé...'

Just like that, Anakin and Padmé looked at each other deeply.

At this time, they only had each other in their eyes, and they didn't even pay attention to what the Geonosians, Earl Dooku, and the proud governor of the Trade Union, Newt Gunley, said on the viewing stand. Listen, they just looked at each other affectionately amidst the cheers of those Geonosians.

"Hey Hey hey!"

"You guys are enough!"

Finally, Obi-Wan hanging on another stone pillar next to him seemed a little bit unbearable.

"I don't understand, Anakin, what's going on with you, why are you here?"

"All right!"

"I mean: you bastard, what the hell are you doing here?!"

Obviously, Anakin, who was supposed to be on Naboo or had already returned to Coruscant, unexpectedly appeared here, and was caught by the Geonosians and was about to be executed together with himself and others. , Obi-Wan said it was a little difficult to understand.

"Of course I came to save you!"

Anakin replied confidently. Although his rescue process was not perfect, and he was caught without even seeing Padmé in the middle, he still firmly believes until now that the final result of this matter Shouldn't be too frustrating?

"Save people?"

"Ha! Is this how you came to save people? Well, you did a great job, and you really deserve to be the apprentice I taught you!"

After confirming it, he found that the other party was really Obi-Wan who came here alone, so he mocked and mocked Anakin with a bit of hatred.

Sure enough, what he said to Padmé when he was on the spaceship was not wrong. That kind of emotion that shouldn't have really ruined Anakin. Look at what the other party has done. The most basic rationality and judgment that a Jedi should have have been lost. Just such a person came here to die and still look happy?

"rest assured!"

"I'm here to save Padme, not you!"

Listening to the other party's sarcasm, Anakin also spoke the truth bluntly.

That's because of Padmé. If it was just Obi-Wan who was caught, he might at most notify the Jedi Council immediately, or secretly let the swarm come to save him, but he definitely wouldn't come here in person. To this planet, right?

"very good!"

"Then may I ask His Excellency Anakin Skywalker, have you successfully rescued him?"

Obi-Wan stared at Anakin with that hell-like expression, wanting to see what he could say.

"this……"

"When I came in, I met our teacher and our teacher's teacher. I couldn't beat them, so..."

So Anakin was caught and brought here.

However, although Padme has not been able to be rescued yet, he believes that as long as it is delayed for a while, it should be almost enough! Because he felt that his insect swarm had been very close for a long time, and he might have sensed his situation, so he was speeding up?

"very good!"

"Anakin, you are so good!!"

Obi-Wan, who was talking ironically, turned his head away angrily, as if he was extremely ashamed and indignant at such a stupid Jedi he had taught him?

"Hello!"

"You two, who do you see coming?"

Without waiting for Anakin and Obi-Wan to continue to say something, Padmé suddenly reminded them both in a low voice.

Because she saw, in the distance, a certain familiar figure came to the three of them on a small suspended vehicle, jumped off, and then walked towards the pillar step by step with his hands clasped in silence. come.

"Anakin, Obi-Wan, and..."

"Padmé..."

Looking at the three people in front of him, two of them are his apprentices, one is the former queen of Naboo, Padmé Amidala, who he has known ten years ago and has a good personal relationship. Members of Parliament and leaders of the peace faction, he didn't know what to say for a while.

'...'

'...'

'...'

Obi-Wan, Padmé, and Anakin were not in a hurry to speak, they all looked at the Jedi Master they admired so much standing in front of them with their hands clasped together, and each had mixed feelings in their hearts. , and never imagined that they would come to this confrontational situation today.

Of course, maybe it can't be said to be antagonism, but just a difference in concept?

"Obi-Wan..."

Finally, after feeling emotional for a while, Master Qui-Gon Jinn spoke, walked up to Obi-Wan's pillar first, looked at his first apprentice and persuaded:

"You still haven't figured it out yet?"

"You also know the identity of Supreme Chancellor Palpatine, and the Second Republic Army is all a conspiracy planned by him... Now, ten years have passed, the situation of the Galactic Republic is already very dangerous, and the entire galaxy is also in an abnormal situation. It's a terrible situation, the stubborn and old-fashioned elders can't save this country, now only the Alliance of Independent Galaxies can hope to defeat Palpatine and restore everything!"

"so……"

"It's still too late for you to choose to join us. As long as you nod your head, I will ask my teacher to let you go. You shouldn't put your hopes on that Jedi committee that you can't protect yourself!"

Qui-Gon Jinn tried to persuade Obi-Wan with some distress, wanting to persuade Obi-Wan to give up the unrealistic ideas held by the other party's stubborn and conservative Jedi Temple and Jedi Elders.

"No! Teacher Qui-Gon Jin!"

"Both Anakin and I believe in you, but I don't believe in your teacher. It is you who should wake up! He also said that he is Darth Sidious's apprentice and has also studied The dark force, such a dangerous guy, how dare you trust him?"

"If he is really for the Galactic Republic, he should have informed the Elder Council of the facts earlier, and then cooperated with the Jedi Knights to eradicate Supreme Speaker Palpatine, instead of gathering so many galaxies and separatists to form the Independent Galaxy Alliance!"

"besides!"

"Teacher, regardless of whether what he said is true or not, and whether it is true that he broke up with Palpatine and turned against each other, it is not difficult to judge based on what he has done in the past few years. That ambitious man like the Sith Lord!"

"So teacher, wake up, and quickly send the information back to the Jedi Temple, maybe everything is still too late?"

Yes, on the day of the arrest, that Earl Dooku and the teacher Qui-Gon Jinn in front of him had persuaded Obi-Wan to let him know the current status of the Galactic Republic and the true identity of Supreme Speaker Palpatine. Identity... However, when he was skeptical and didn't choose to believe it completely, he planned to send the information back to the Jedi Temple, but he was locked up by them, and he hung up here with Padmé and Anakin. The dueling grounds of the Geonosians are here.

"No……"

"Obi-Wan, sir, he does have ambitions... But, I believe what he said, and, after so many years, you must have seen the current situation of this galaxy and the Republic. I think it's time for a change."

After shaking his head and sighing, Qui-Gon Jinn, who knew he couldn't convince Obi-Wan, turned to Anakin's pillar instead.

"..."

"Anakin, what about you?"

"You are the most talented apprentice I have ever seen, and you should be able to go further in the future, so... May I know what you think?"

After a pause, Qui-Gon Jinn stared at Anakin's eyes with his cloudy eyes with a hint of sadness and asked as if begging.

"teacher......"

"I'm actually not as enlightened as Obi-Wan. I don't care who the Supreme Speaker Palpatine is, and I don't care what the galaxy will look like in the future. And to be honest, I don't care about certain rules and old-fashioned rules of the Jedi Temple. I have long complained about the Presbyterian Church..."

"So, if you let Padmé go, teacher, then everything is negotiable, really!!"

Under Obi-Wan's incomparably sad eyes and Padmé's astonished and slightly moved expression, Anakin said such a very serious sentence, and immediately turned his head and gave it to the two of them. An apologetic look.

In fact, this is indeed Anakin's sincere words, because as long as that Earl Dooku and the Trade Federation don't bother Padmé, he definitely doesn't mind temporarily changing his flag and joining the independent galaxy. in the league.

After all, in Anakin's view, it's the same to beat everyone now, anyway, sooner or later, he will have to fight again!

Moreover, it doesn't matter whether that Earl Dooku is ambitious, because he himself is an ambitious man, and has been planning to overthrow and control the Galactic Republic all the time this year in order to obtain that supreme power? Therefore, any righteousness, position or conspiracy really doesn't matter at all, and the only person who can still make him feel scruples is Padmé alone.

"..."

Qui-Gon Jinn didn't speak, because he couldn't satisfy Anakin's seemingly simple condition, so he could only turn around slowly with a sullen face and walked to the last pillar, which is the stone of Padmé. in front of the pillar.

"Padmé..."

"Do you know? I really want to save you too. Think about it ten years ago, we were in trouble together for a long time. We are old friends... It's a pity that those guys in the Trade Union hate you to the bone. , and the only condition they are willing to join the Independent Galaxy Alliance and provide a lot of funds and troops is to kill you..."

"So, I'm sorry, I can't seem to save any of you..."

In fact, Qui-Gon Jin wanted to pull out his lightsaber and save the three people in front of him, but here on Planet Geonosis, apart from being able to speak a little in front of his teacher, Earl Dooku, there was nothing he could do at all. Without any influence or power, even if he makes a bold move now, it is estimated that it will only add one life in vain.

Moreover, once he does that, even if they can escape, it will be difficult to monitor his Mr. Dooku, and it will be difficult to monitor and ensure that the other party can really do what the other party said. Great vision too. Because, like his teacher, Qui-Gon King himself hated the corruption of the Republic and the stubbornness and conservativeness of the Presbyterian Church.

"Master Qui-Gon Jinn, you don't have to blame yourself..."

"I know that all of this is not your fault. If everything you said is true, then it is not too great to exchange my life for the republic not to fall into the hands of Lord Sith. Pity?"

"But you have to be careful of those guys from the Trade Union and your teacher. I always feel that if this galaxy is in their hands in the future, it will probably become a little worse than the current Republic. !"

Padmé doesn't care about her own life and death now. After seeing Anakin running to save herself regardless of knowing that she might die, she has nothing to regret.

So, after she finished speaking, she turned around and sent a look of gratitude and admiration to Anakin who was beside her.

"..."

"Feel sorry!"

"Padmé, Anakin, and Obi-Wan..."

"I'm really sorry……"

At this time, Earl Dooku and the leader of the Geonosians on the viewing platform of the arena had finished their speeches, and the entire arena gradually became quiet. At the same time, there were several Geonosians at the entrance of the arena. The Sri Lankan had released some kind of monster from a cage, so Qui-Gon Jinn knew it was time for him to leave.

Although, he was a little reluctant, very unwilling, and couldn't bear to see the three of them die here... But unfortunately, he had no choice.

"..."

"Padmé, don't worry, I will definitely rescue you!"

Seeing his teacher turn his head and walk away step by step, Anakin hurriedly said to Padmé who was a little nervous because he saw the monster in the distance.

'Anakin...'

"What I said is true!"

"I feel it, the Force tells me that none of us will die here today!"

'...'

Padme forced a smile to herself. She felt that the other party's reason was far-fetched, and it was just to comfort herself?

"Hello!"

"Anakin, why are you so sure, did you inform the Jedi Council or that old guy Palpatine in advance before you came, and they will send troops to rescue us?"

"No! I didn't remember to do that!"

"Then how do you know we won't die today?"

"Obi-Wan, that's what the Force told me, there will be a savior to save us today!"

"On the contrary, Anakin... My Force tells me that we are all dead today and will definitely return to the Force!"

Obviously, unlike Anakin's optimistic attitude of opening his eyes and telling lies, Obi-Wan was already completely desperate, and he didn't think that anyone would save them in this situation.

Not to mention that Anakin didn't send a message to ask for help before coming here. Even if he did ask for help, the Jedi Knights who had suffered heavy losses here would definitely not be able to launch another attack! As for the Speaker Palpatine and the Army of the Second Republic, if they really told Count Dooku what they said, they probably wouldn’t be so active in sending troops to rescue them. Therefore, the three of them seemed to be dead. deal.

"Maybe!"

Anakin didn't explain, because he felt that the savior had arrived, and he would definitely not die this time. Although it was indeed a little reckless for him to come to Geonosis, he had made a record! So, at this time, he just frowned and looked at the three-headed monsters that were being driven by those Geonosians, thinking about countermeasures and how to fight them and protect Padmé in the future, so that Try to buy a little time?

"!!"

"look!"

"what is that?!"

Suddenly, as battles and explosions sounded in the distant sky, Padmé and Obi-Wan exclaimed and looked into the sky, and they saw a...or a very huge ship And the huge strange creature battleship is flying above the planet, and released many strange flying creatures to strangle with the robot space fighters of the trade union.

At the same time, the huge weird biological warship moved downwards almost simultaneously, and dropped similarly huge sac-like things with countless crazily twisting tentacles one by one towards the arena they were in. The speed smashed towards the open space of their arena and its surroundings?

boom! boom!

Immediately afterwards, those sac-like things with countless tentacles twisting wildly were like bombs, and slammed into the open space of the arena and the auditorium viciously, making the Geonosians and the battle robots of the Trade Union present become horrified. While causing chaos and causing certain casualties, countless springtails, hydralisks, etc. crawled out of the big pits created by the impact in a violent manner, and blatantly rushed towards the Geonosians and those fighting The robot jumped on it.

boom! !

boom! boom! boom! !

Soon, as the sac-shaped thing with countless crazily twisting tentacles was continuously thrown down by the terrifying giant biological warship, the defense lines of the Geonosians and the battle robots of the Trade Union broke down. It started to collapse, and was crazily strangled by those ferocious and terrifying monsters that kept rushing out of the big pits...

Fortunately, those terrifying monsters seemed to be fighting with the army of combat robots and the same number of Geonosians who were constantly mobilized, and completely ignored Anakin and others who were being chained to the stone pillar. people?

"terrible……"

"Then, what kind of monster is that?"

"never seen it......"

"Anakin, who are they? Are they the saviors you just mentioned?!"

Seeing this, while Obi-Wan began to struggle and tried to open the chain in his hand, he did not forget to shout at Anakin immediately.

"I have no idea!"

"You think they'll look like they know me?"

Anakin said this against his will and asked back.

"Certainly not!"

"I've never seen those scary guys!!"

"Anakin, Obi-Wan, can you stop wasting your time! What should we do now?!"

"!!"

"No matter who they are, let's run while they are fighting!"

As he said that, Obi-Wan, who seemed to have been prepared for a long time, quickly got rid of his chains, and then watched those terrifying unknown monster races rushing around vigilantly, and found that they seemed to only want to find the Geonosians As well as the troubles of those battle robots, after he really didn't want to deal with them, he quickly picked up a blaster rifle that the battle robots dropped on the ground, and with two hits, Anakin who was still hanging on the stone pillar And the chain in Padme's hand broke and let the two fall directly.

"Obi-Wan was right!"

"Padmé, let's get out of here first!"

Seeing that he didn't need to admit his relationship with the swarm, Anakin was also happy to continue to play dumb, and directly pretended to be very nervous and took Padmé's hand and echoed.

"My spaceship should still be near an air vent not far outside. If we can find a means of transportation, we should be able to get there soon, and then we can safely leave this damned planet!"

Safety is definitely safe, because the swarm will definitely clear a passage for him, and Anakin believes that the worm queen in charge should know what to do.

The premise is...

Don't they be so stupid as to send some idiot bug to run up to him and ask for his order at this time?

"Look!"

"How about that hover car pulled by that animal over there?"

Padmé pointed to the backward and advanced suspension chariot pulled by an unknown species of animal that pulled the three people one by one to 'parade' to demonstrate in the distance.

"good idea!"

"What are you waiting for?"

"Come on, Obi-Wan, do you want to die here?!"

"!!"

"Hey! You two guys wait for me!"

Seeing the distance, and seeing their teacher Qui-Gon Jinn looking at them from a distance, he took the vehicle and took the lead to turn around and escape. Obi-Wan didn't dare to delay, and hurriedly jumped onto the road that had been surrounded by Anakin and him. The chariot driven by Padmé, the three of them quickly fled towards the outside of the arena by relying on this suspended chariot powered by animals and consuming a handful of grass for 100 kilometers...
