1490. Order 66 (ExecuteOrder66) (7)
As soon as he heard Palpatine say this, Anakin Skywalker's expression suddenly changed. He would not have connected the two things originally, but now under the guidance of Palpatine's nonchalant words, he immediately thought of another possibility -
This is a way to avoid liability!
If this is true, then the Jedi Order has already planned it!
Palpatine also added another blow at the right time, "Then a few days after the document establishing the clone army was signed, Master Seve Dias went to the planet Felucia to perform a mission. His fighter jet was Shot down, sacrificed on the spot—who shot down a powerful Jedi Master’s fighter jet?”
"Shut up?" Anakin Skywalker's face turned pale.
"How the Jedi Order planned this matter, even I don't understand now. That's why I asked the Jedi Order to open their collection." Palpatine said, he sighed, "So, I I'm sorry. Because the things involved in this matter are so big, I didn't dare to bring it out until now... You know, Anakin, I'm scared..."
"Afraid? You are the Speaker of the Galactic Republic." Anakin Skywalker said.
"You know what? If I had brought out this evidence when the war just broke out and questioned the Jedi Order, then I might not have survived for three days. The Jedi Order would have killed me without hesitation. With my It's the reason of the Sith Lord... Then they will take over this war, and what will happen then, I am really afraid to know..." Palpatine said this, his voice gradually became smaller and slightly Tremble.
He paused for a while, then swallowed hard, plucked up the courage, and his voice became much louder, "But now, I have the help of the knowledgeable people of the Republic! I have your help! Then, I can Survive and continue to lead the Republic in the right direction. So I'm really sorry that I didn't tell you the truth until now..."
"I...I don't know..." Anakin Skywalker took a few steps back. He was completely lost and didn't know what to do.
"This galaxy is full of dangers, Anakin." Palpatine's voice suddenly turned gloomy. "The Geth are killing people in the northern territory of the Republic. Tens of billions of people have died! Separatism still occupies half of the galaxy. Du The power in Count Ku's hands is comparable to that of the Galactic Republic, and his ally, the Necromancer, has always been plotting secretly. As I said before, the Necromancer has conquered the planet Korriban, and now he has obtained countless former Support from the Sith Emperor! Do you know what is buried on the planet Korriban?"
Palpatine said in a low voice, "...Buried are the kings of the Sith Empire of all dynasties, as well as countless powerful Sith Lords! They are truly existences that have been at war with the Galactic Republic for thousands of years! They are responsible for The hatred of the Galactic Republic is deep-rooted and unforgettable! And after the Angels have conquered them, they will undoubtedly inherit their will - to destroy the Galactic Republic!"
"So, the Angels of Death are the biggest enemies of the Republic! But...why doesn't the Jedi order attack such a dangerous person but always targets me? Is it because I am the Speaker of the Republic? Whose way am I blocking? "?" Palpatine's voice has become as low as a demon's groaning, making people involuntarily follow his words and think.
Anakin Skywalker lowered his head. He didn't know what to say or what to do. Just now, he didn't even know where he should go.
"It's time for Anakin to make a decision, just as it's time for me to make a decision." Palpatine stood up and placed two communicators in front of Anakin, one black and one white.
"What is this?" Anakin couldn't understand what Palpatine was doing.
"In such a crisis, we must win this war! And in order to win this war, we must unite the strength of everyone in the Galactic Republic! If we continue to fight like this, the final result will be destruction! As I said in my dream As seen in it.
So, let this internal fight come to an end... with the victory of one of the parties. Let us risk everything—including our own lives—to believe that the winner can bring victory to the Galactic Republic! " Palpatine said.
"End the dispute? Leave a winner? You mean..."
"Yes, choice." After Palpatine finished speaking, he pushed the two communicators in Anakin's direction.
"What on earth is this?" Anakin began to have some fear on his face.
"Order 65, Order 66." Palpatine pointed to the two communicators respectively. The black one is Order 66, and the white one is Order 65. "This is the second emergency order implanted in the clone troopers - 66 The order is to confirm that the Jedi Order is treasonous and arrest them. Order 65 is to confirm that the Speaker of the Republic is treasonous and then arrest them.”
Hearing this, Anakin's expression changed drastically. The two communicators in front of him could actually influence the fate of the entire Galactic Republic!
Of course, if you tell Tang Xiao this, he will tell you that sometimes the things that influence the entire world and even the universe are so simple and ridiculous, just like the nuclear bomb launch code of a certain country was set to eight zeros for a long time.
The end of the world is actually very close to us.
"This...shouldn't we wait for the council to discuss and decide?" Anakin asked.
"If we wait until the outcome of the council's discussion, then the Jedi Order will undoubtedly know - they have many informants in the council, and naturally one of them is one you are very familiar with." Palpatine said, "And fortunately Yes, I still have the power of emergency decision-making. On issues related to the life and death of the Galactic Republic, I can bypass the Parliament and issue direct orders. And this kind of efficiency is actually what I have been pursuing."
He patted the white communicator again, "As for Order 65, once you make a judgment, I will be in front of you. You can execute this order at any time. It is reasonable and legal."
"Why? Why should you leave such a matter to me to decide!!" Anakin Skywalker finally couldn't bear it anymore, he stood up and said loudly.
"This is your mission, Chosen One..." Palpatine's voice became distorted.

PS: I seem to have misremembered the instructions in the previous chapter. The one who arrested the Speaker should be Order 65 instead of Order 67... Order 67 is a parody of the order in Lego Star Wars, which is to make clones dance.
