1458. Sophistry and Investigation. Shakti had already expected Palpatine’s request. She replied: “The Jedi Order agrees to the Galactic Republic’s access to the Jedi Temple Library, and we will also open up all politics involving Jedi. and documents on military decisions for verification by the investigation team.”
"Maybe I didn't say it very clearly, so let me say it again..." Palpatine said coldly,
"What I'm talking about is - a thorough investigation. This means that we will investigate all information including the Jedi Temple Library and Collection."
"The Jedi Order has long been engaged in the study of the Force and the exploration of the nature of the universe. Our research results have no obligation to hand over to the Galactic Republic." Shakti said.
"The Galactic Republic will not require the Jedi Order to hand over their research results. All we need is to confirm that these things will not pose a threat to the Galactic Republic. This is enough." Palpatine said.
"The Jedi Order has sealed away all knowledge that may pose a threat to the galaxy, and once this knowledge is made public, it will truly pose a threat." Shakti began to feel something bad in her heart.
"Don't worry, Master Shakti. Our professionals naturally know what's appropriate. They will never let these things endanger the Galactic Republic." Palpatine said with a sneer.
Compared to Shakti, who repeatedly emphasized the safety of the galaxy, he emphasized the Galactic Republic both inside and outside his words, because as long as they grasp this, the Jedi Order will have no retreat.
When Zan heard this, Shakti also smiled coldly,
"Professionals? The Jedi Order has studied the ways of the Force for tens of thousands of years. In comparison, where do the professionals from the Galactic Republic come from?" Palpatine did not feel dissatisfied and said with a smile: "Not every Force Sensitive people belong to the Jedi Order... And if that doesn't work, I think I'm more professional." Shakti's face changed drastically, and she sternly scolded: "Daydreaming! So this is what you think, Want to seize the research results of the Jedi Order!" Palpatine raised his left hand that had been replaced with a mechanical prosthesis and said loudly: "I can swear that everything I do will not be harmful to others. The Galactic Republic is at a disadvantage! I have dedicated everything I have to the Galactic Republic, and I will never hide anything for myself! Even if the enemy’s iron hooves set foot on Coruscant, the one who fights to the end will always be me!! In contrast, I will be the one fighting to the end! Yes, you left us at the most difficult time of our war. What position does the Jedi Order have to say that you yourself will not be detrimental to the Galactic Republic?" Shakti said sharply: "This is absolutely impossible! Jedi Order I can swear by the Force that I will never release any forbidden research! I will never let this knowledge endanger the galaxy! Naturally, I will never let a Sith Lord get his hands on it!"
"Hehehehehe..." Palpatine laughed darkly,
"The oath of the Jedi Order...hehehehe, interesting, interesting! So since your Jedi Order claims to have always been the guardian of the galaxy, then you should be able to get more support, right? In this case, let's take this as How did our Galactic Council vote on today’s issue?”
"You have taken control of the parliament! Now tell me to vote, it is completely a conspiracy!" Shakti said.
However, Sheev Palpatine looked at her with pity in his eyes and said: "I have given you a fair and open opportunity, Master Shaak-Ti. I could have issued the order directly through emergency ruling authority. Yes, because the research secretly hidden by the Jedi Order has posed a threat to the survival of the Galactic Republic. However, even so, you still refuse such a vote. Why? Because you, the Jedi Order, know that you have no access to it. Any support, right?"
"Enough!!" A voice sounded from the side. Padmé Amidala, a member of the Naboo planet, stood up, pointed at Palpatine and said loudly: "The honor of the Jedi Order for tens of thousands of years is not yours. It's such a shame to put it on the council! Every word you say has a strong tendency! Even if the law does not stipulate that a Sith Lord cannot serve as speaker, as a Force organization that is hostile to the Jedi Order, you are not allowed to You should be involved in any decision-making related to the Jedi Order! If you want to talk about the Constitution, then this is what I want to tell you!" Hearing Padme's loud words, those who had been led by Palpatine Rhythm, the congressmen who were frightened and did not dare to have any public support for the Jedi Order finally had a backbone this time. They stood up and clamored loudly to support the Jedi Order.
"Silence! Silence!!" Deputy Speaker Mas Ameda, standing next to Palpatine, shouted with his loud voice.
After the surrounding voices decreased slightly, Sheev Palpatine looked at Padmé coldly and said: "As Senator Amidala said, I should avoid it. But nothing will change in this matter. , will vote on the investigation of the Jedi Order. Before that, every member of the Jedi Order will not be allowed to leave the Jedi Temple." After that, he controlled the anti-gravity platform and flew to his office. direction, after parking the car, we left without looking back.
Shakti didn't say much. With a gloomy face, she also turned and left, leaving only the parliament venue like a frying pan.
At the same time, a large number of Sparti clone soldiers swarmed in and surrounded the Jedi Temple from three floors to three floors. Not even a fly could fly out!
...The northeastern territory of the Milky Way, the outer star region, the planet Bandomire. A powerful fleet composed of hundreds of battleships is stationed here. This fleet includes a full 50 Jaeger-class battlecruisers!
This is equivalent to the size of the main fleet of a legion! However, for this fleet, this is only less than a quarter of their total strength.
Galactic Republic, the main fleet of the Second Galaxy Army! The planet Bandomire is the most important agricultural and mining area in the Northeastern Outer Rim. Not only that, this planet is also an important transportation artery in the Hydia hyperspace channel.
The planet Quan is also the gateway to the planet Mandalore. In the original plot, the Yuuzhan Vong invaded the Milky Way, and the planet Bandomire was their forward base for gathering fleets to attack the planet Mandalore. This also illustrates the important status of the planet Bandomire.
And now, also targeting the planet Mandalore, the main fleet of the Second Galaxy Army has naturally chosen this place as its base.
Through this planet, the Second Galaxy Army will be able to suppress the entire Neutral Galaxy Alliance, including the planet Mandalore!
