"Hey, you're back."

Seeing Naruse Mio and Wan Liya coming back, Duanmu Huai also raised his hand and said hello to them.

"How about it?"

"Not at all."

Naruse Mio didn't speak, but Maria shook her head with a disappointed look on her face.

"What kind of guardian of the Galactic Republic? I thought he would be so powerful, but he turned out not to be as good as a descendant of a high-level demon!"

"Huh? Are you really that weak?"

Gulea was somewhat surprised to hear Wan Liya's thoughts. You must know that in the battle group of the Tribunal, Maria is already at the bottom. The only ones weaker than her are the jellyfish sisters, Bambi and Kula - but these three are all auspicious Due to the nature of the creature, they would not be able to take part in normal battles.

In fact, if Maria develops her own nightmare power, her strength can be increased even more.

But it's a pity that she chose hand-to-hand combat...

"Really weak."

Wanria spread her hands again, looking speechless. Originally, she thought she would be able to show off her skills this time, but it turned out that the other party's strength was really... even bullying a primary school student didn't show off her skills.

"The psychic intensity here is generally not high, so it's normal for this to happen."

Duanmu Huai was not surprised. In fact, he discovered this when he came to this information. If we want to compare it with fairy tales or fantasy novels, then this place is equivalent to the end of the Dharma era or a fantasy world where the spiritual energy is exhausted. In the low-demon world--the great mage's unique skill is the five fireballs.

In a world of high magic, starting with five fireballs and drawing A would be a basic skill.

Naruse Mio and Maria are average in their own world, but there are indigenous gods at the upper limit of that world, and there are not even indigenous gods in this star field, let alone gods across the galaxy. So when they fight the Jedi, it's actually like the immortals in the Gods' List fighting the monsters in the fairy tale. It's completely crushing.

To be honest, in Duanmu Huai's view, it is a miracle that this star field has been able to develop peacefully to this point. With such a weak strength and no native gods to protect it... no one has paid attention to them, but think about it carefully. , if it weren’t for the oil in the Middle East, who would be willing to go to that sterile place.

Well, that's understandable.

Of course, the Tribunal is different. After all, the Tribunal's duty is to protect mankind, and it is still different from other gods.

"Let's just fight there. The fleet here is not powerful, and these Jedi are also weak. Why waste time?"

After complaining, Wan Liya looked at Duanmu Huai again and asked curiously.

"If we fight down, then we will be responsible for ruling this place. Do you think you have this time or I have this time?"

"Ah ha ha ha... well this..."

Hearing Duanmu Huai's words, Wan Liya also laughed dryly. Indeed, the biggest characteristic of the Tribunal is that it never conquers. Basically, after they deal with the trouble, they leave it to the locals to clean up the aftermath. So from a certain perspective, this is the reason why Duanmu Huai chose to cooperate with Palpatine - if Palpatine does not rule the Galactic Republic, wouldn't the Inquisition come?

He won't do it!

That's why Duanmuhuai cooperated with Palpatine's actions. The reason why he established such a place on Tatooine was simply to be like a special zone. To put it bluntly, it was to let Palpatine truly experience the treatment and status of humans by the Inquisition. Duanmuhuai is not worried about whether Palpatine has this level of understanding.

If he doesn't, then just replace him in the end. There are so many people in this world, and he is the only one missing.

At the same time, Qui-Gon Jinn and Obi-Wan on the other side also returned to the Jedi Council and reported the situation. It must be said that everyone on the Jedi Council was shocked when they heard their report. Not only because of the attitude of the Tribunal, but also because of the strength of the Tribunal. You must know that Qui-Gon Jinn is also a Jedi Knight who has experienced hundreds of battles. In the end, he was defeated easily by the opponent, and he was still twelve or thirteen years old. little girl?

"Aren't you showing mercy?"

The black Jedi stared at Qui-Gon Jinn in confusion and raised his own questions, while Qui-Gon Jinn shook his head.

"No, although I can indeed say that I was careless, but..."

As a Jedi Knight, Qui-Gon Jinn would not make excuses for himself in this kind of thing. Indeed, when he saw Wan Liya's appearance, he relaxed his vigilance towards her, and naturally he let his guard down. But the problem is that Maria's subsequent operations really shocked Qui-Gon Jinn.

Fighting a lightsaber with bare hands!

That thing could even burn through the deck of a battleship, but she fought it with bare hands, and even won!

Therefore, Qui-Gon Jinn felt that he had not lost unjustly. Any other Jedi would be confused when he saw this scene.

"I never expected that there would be such a strong person in the Tribunal..."

After listening to Qui-Gon Jinn's explanation, all the Jedi knights present took a breath. However, before they could calm down, they heard that Qui-Gon Jinn was silent again.

"I don't think that's the case. In fact, I think the two of them should be considered relatively weak in the Tribunal."

"Master? Are you serious?"

Hearing Qui-Gon Jinn's answer, Obi-Wan was dumbfounded. He was being beaten by the opponent. If he was a strong man, he would lose if he lost. But you said they are actually the weaker ones in the Inquisition?

"I thought so."

But unfortunately, Qui-Gon Jin obviously had no intention of saving face for his apprentice, and quickly gave an explanation.

"After defeating us, the little girl named Maria said, 'We can't even defeat us. It seems that this Jedi has no ability.'"

"……………………"

After hearing what Qui-Gon Jinn said, the expressions of everyone present became distorted, but what else could be done?

I can only endure it! So angry!

However, Qui-Gon Jinn was in a good mood and continued.

"Look, when she spoke, she used 'even we can't defeat', which shows that they themselves are probably not outstanding in the Inquisition. It's like someone challenges a Jedi Master, but even a Jedi Apprentice can't defeat them." Win, the latter would say the same thing, you can't even defeat an apprentice like me, and you still want to challenge the master? I think that's what she said."

"……………………"

Faced with Qui-Gon Jinn's answer, everyone was speechless. After a moment, another Jedi Knight coughed, breaking the awkward silence.

"So, what should we do now? Do we want to report truthfully to the Galactic Council?"

"So what if I report it? The Galactic Council currently cannot mobilize enough power to go to Tatooine. It is still the territory of the Hutts..."

"Sending Jedi Knights won't work either..."

Everyone discussed it for a long time, and finally decided to report the matter to the Galactic Council, and then leave it to the Hutts themselves. After all, it was the Hutt's own territory. The Galactic Council was beyond their reach. It was not impossible to send Jedi knights. After all, the Jedi This is the kind of beheading operation the samurai does. However, the problem is that just two people from the Inquisition can knock down Master Qui-Gon Jinn and his disciples. Who else are you going to send?

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that this time they showed mercy and spared your life. It is hard to say whether the other party will show mercy to you next time you go there.

"Teacher, I always feel like this is wrong."

After walking out of the committee door, Obi-Wan looked at Qui-Gon Jinn and spoke uneasily, and Qui-Gon Jinn nodded.

"I understand what you mean, Obi-Wan. This is not an act of justice, and you can be sure that once this matter is reported, the militant faction in the parliament will definitely become tougher, and things will probably get worse by then. tidy."

As Qui-Gon Jinn spoke, he looked out the window at Coruscant with worried eyes. He is very aware of the current situation within the Galactic Parliament. Due to the clamor of the Separatists, the conflicts within the Galactic Parliament are now intensifying, and more and more representatives have joined the ranks of the warring faction, that is, asking the Galactic Parliament to form their own army in order to Prevent the breakup of the Galactic Republic.

Their argument is also very reasonable. As the saying goes, if there is one, there are two. If the Galactic Council cannot severely crack down on the arrogance of these separatists, then other planets will follow suit. By then, everyone will go back to their homes to find their own mothers. Who will If you still care about the Galactic Parliament, by that time, the Galactic Republic will exist in name only.

So we have to hit hard!

Fortunately, the current Speaker Palpatine is relatively stable and does not blindly demand to strengthen the military strength. This is why the main war faction has not succeeded so far.

Therefore, Qui-Gon Jinn can be sure that when the Jedi Council reports the matters on Tatooine to the Galactic Parliament, the pressure on the main war faction will further increase. By that time, even Chancellor Palpatine may not be able to suppress it.

But in fact, Qui-Gon Jinn probably never expected that from the very beginning, this was a scene that Palpatine asked Duanmu Huai to cooperate with him.

Unlike Duanmuhuai, Palpatine was very aware of the status and influence of the Jedi Council in the Galactic Parliament. At the beginning, he indeed hoped to provoke a conflict between the Trade Federation and Naboo, and instigated it by blocking Naboo through the Trade Federation. The tension within the parliament, and then he debuted as a reformist member, supporting Naboo in exchange for the trust of the parliament.

But there is also a problem, that is, Palpatine must take action himself, and once he asks to build an army, it will easily arouse the suspicion of the Jedi Council.

But now with the Tribunal and Duanmuhuai, Palpatine can change direction, from a revolutionary to a conservative. He believes that under the pressure of the Tribunal, the following group of congressmen will take the initiative to submit suggestions even if they do not need to hint. Military bill!

In this way, not only did he achieve his goal, but he also successfully removed him from the Jedi Council's sight. By that time, no one the Jedi Council doubts will doubt him!

After all, it was cold weather, and it was others who took the initiative to give him—the pajamas for me to wear.

It’s not what I want to wear. It’s really hard to refuse such kindness!

Happy Children's Day everyone, but I have to update and can't celebrate the holiday. By the way, I finally found a drink I can drink. Yuanqi Forest has a bit of flavor and is sugar-free sparkling water, which is very suitable for me.
