The Empire begins with the Fourth Scourge

1491. Execute Order 66!

"No! I'm not the chosen one!! Why did you let me suffer all of this!!" Anakin Skywalker stepped back again and again, shouting loudly.

"The Galactic Republic, it's time to take this step! The Jedi Knights have become a thing of the past! Instead, they have become a stumbling block hindering the progress of the Republic! Because of the existence of the Jedi Knights, we are about to lose this war! Look! Look at what the Jedi Order did! Even you, when you joined the Jedi Order more than ten years ago, how did they treat you?" Palpatine's voice gradually became louder.

"But... the Jedi Order..." Anakin Skywalker shook his head vigorously.

"Don't you think this is the Jedi Order you imagined? They formed an army! They have an inescapable responsibility for the outbreak of the war! They participated in countless massacres during the war! In the past three months Among the 14 orbital bombings that occurred before and after, which one was not signed by the Jedi Order?!" Palpatine was still aggressive, "Now Master Windu is leading my Second Galaxy Army expedition, if I want him to return Station, will he obey? No! He is embracing himself!"

Anakin Skywalker was speechless.

"Do you think I'm in a good situation now? Anakin. I've been cornered!" Palpatine's face turned grim, "Master Yoda blatantly wants to assassinate me! As the speaker of the Galactic Republic, I was assassinated by the Jedi Order in my office! Yet I dare not tell the public! Once I die, what will happen to this war? What will happen to the Galactic Republic?! I live every day in On the brink of death, Anakin..."

"Such a thing...shouldn't...shouldn't happen!" Anakin Skywalker was in agony.

"Do you know why I gave you the right to choose? Anakin." Palpatine pushed the two communicators in front again, "It's not the prophecy of the Chosen One, you should know that it's just a Jedi Knight The burden the regiment placed on you out of thin air. It's because of... trust! I trust you, Anakin! If anyone in the Jedi Order still has that unwavering sense of justice, it's you. "

He walked over to Anakin, then turned his back to him, opened his hands and said, "Make a decision, Anakin! Is it my fault or the Jedi Order? I am the Speaker of the Republic." With my identity, I give you this authorization!"

Palpatine said so, but he secretly began to use his powerful and dark dark side force.

Only he knew that what he gave Anakin was only a single-choice question. Because of Directive No. 65, it is absolutely impossible for him to grant authorization even as the speaker, because this requires the joint authorization of the parliament and the Supreme Court!

But Order 66 is completely different! Order No. 66, which was written in an unreadable word game, didn't even need to pass the parliament, he could launch it himself!

Of course, he was also prepared. Once Anakin chooses Order 65, he will directly attack and kill it!

A disobedient person, even if he is the chosen one, is also worthless.

"...Why can't we wait for the council to make a decision?" Anakin Skywalker closed his eyes with a sad face.

"I've said it, Anakin. When the Council makes its decision, I won't survive the night—the Jedi Order will do everything in their power to kill me. And I don't think I'm capable of standing up to the full force of the Jedi Order." Kill." Palpatine said, "You already have the authorization, let's make a judgment. Should I be arrested as the Speaker of the Republic, or should I arrest the Jedi Order?"

"Why do you force me?" Anakin-Skywalker still dare not make a decision.

"Because of the Galactic Republic after the transformation, you are the most important role, and you must participate. Whether you choose me or the Jedi Order, you should do your part and become the one who pushes the times forward! And this , is what you should do as the Chosen One," Palpatine said.

Anakin-Skywalker held the two communicators in his hands with trembling hands. His face was pale and his body was trembling, but as the minutes passed, his emotions became more and more stable, the expression on his face gradually became firmer, and his eyes became sharper.

This is the battle hero!

He closed his eyes again, everything that happened recently flashed through his mind like a lantern, and he seemed to experience those countless things again.

The cold eyes and doubts he suffered when entering the Jedi Order for the first time; the unacceptable relationship with Padmé; the Jedi creed that tried to cut off the connection between him and his mother; Ahsoka Tano who encountered injustice...

There is war, there is death, there is victory, there is defeat...

Some died, some left, some betrayed...

He has lost too much... lost his guide Qui-Gon Jinn, lost his master Obi-Wan Kenobi, lost his apprentice Ahsoka Tano, lost his best friend Jake Si Pawan lost the elder Master Yoda, lost the senior Sass Tin...

besides……

At this moment, the beautiful face of Padmé Amidala appeared in front of him, and there was another kind face...

Mother!

My own mother was turned into a walking dead by an angel of death!

Why! ? Why! ? Why! ?

Why am I the only one who lost everything!

Why? ? ?

It's this war...

Yes, this damn war! Stripped everything away, changed everything!

And the outbreak of this war, the Jedi Order, cannot escape the blame!

They authorized the formation of the clone army 13 years ago! And after the war broke out, it was also Master Shak-Ti of the Jedi Order who went to the Kamino planet to supervise!

It's the Jedi Order!

Maybe not……

But whether so or not, the Galactic Republic, the war, and the Jedi Order themselves must change!

Darth Sidious's voice sounded like a demon, "Make a decision... Anakin Skywalker. The Jedi Order, have only been squandering and using your talents! They have never just treated you as a Beware of danger! But only I know what you want in your heart... You long for power, you long for great power! And you deserve power! The Jedi Order will never teach you the essence of the Force... You don't even know How much powerful knowledge is buried in their library!"

"If you want to protect everything...then you must have everything! If you want to have everything, you must...change everything!" Darth Sidious's voice was still persuasive, "The power of darkness can also be created, it can be Guard! The collection of the Jedi Order contains countless studies on the Force! And the way to save your mother is in it! The reason why they never tell you is because they just want to use you as a tool! Come on ...It's time to make a change...Take this step, and then, hold that truly powerful power in your own hands!"

Anakin-Skywalker's chest heaved violently, he lowered his head, his gaze had already become icy cold!

Suddenly, he crushed the white communicator, then pressed the button of the black communicator, and said slowly in an extremely cold voice: "Execute, Order 66! Execute Order 66!"

[Execute Order 66! 】

[Execute Order 66! 】

[Execute Order 66! 】

"HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!" Darth Sidious laughed loudly, "HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! You made the most correct decision! Anakin Skywalker !Ha ha ha ha!!"

Amidst his laughter, the extremely powerful force of the dark side oscillated unscrupulously around.

However, Anakin Skywalker turned a deaf ear to it, and did not have any aversion to the dark side force shown by Palpatine.

"You will see that the Jedi Order will come to an end today!" Darth Sidious said loudly, spreading his hands.

Following his voice, the large-scale holographic projection arranged in the office immediately began to operate, and countless pictures were projected!

Anakin-Skywalker frowned, he felt that something was wrong, but at this moment he had already made a decision, and there was no turning back. Just watched it all happen.

...

On the planet Kashyyyk, the army of the Galactic Republic is forming an alliance with the army of the Wookiees, fighting fiercely with the robot army of the Federation of Independent Galaxy.

In the headquarters, several clone commanders, some ordinary army commanders, and several Wookiee officers were discussing the battle plan with a Jedi master.

These clone armies are all Spati clones. Although the Galactic Republic has just passed the proposal to use Spati clone soldiers on a large scale, but because these clone soldiers have been preparing for a long time, they have already appeared in various parts of the galaxy. The big battlefield, and join the battle.

At this time, the communication came, and the clone commander directly turned on the communicator, only to see Anakin-Skywalker's sinister expression and cold voice appearing on the screen, "Execute, Order 66!"

"Order No. 66? What is this order?" The ordinary officer on the side turned his head and took a look.

However, before the words fell, a clone soldier fired without warning! The Jedi master didn't expect such a thing to happen, and was shot in the back immediately! But he still pulled out his lightsaber to resist, but more clone troopers around him all shot!

Countless blaster beams exploded on the Jedi Master!

"That's the order." The clone commander said lightly.

Seeing this scene, the ordinary officers and officers immediately fell silent, not daring to say a word.

But the Wookiees roared loudly, and they chose to leave after witnessing this scene! They immediately decided not to serve with the Army of the Republic.

...

On the planet Felucia, in the boundless jungle and swamp, the army of the Galactic Republic is also launching a landing operation.

Master Opal Lanzisis, one of the members of the Jedi Order Committee, is leading an army to attack a stronghold of a robot army. Opal Lanzixis took the lead and charged forward, brandishing a lightsaber! Bounce back all the blast energy beams fired from all directions, and at the same time directly break into the biggest firepower point of the robot army!

However, at this time, not far from the rear, a clone commander turned on the communicator, and the image of Anakin Skywalker was projected on it, and the phrase [Execute Order 66! 】

"Fire." The clone commander pointed lightly at the back of Master Opal Lanzisis.

The heavy artillery behind several AT-TE walkers behind them immediately turned their muzzles and fired directly in the direction of Opal-Lanzisis!

boom! boom! boom! ! !

Among the countless artillery fires, the elder master was instantly overwhelmed.

...

Planet Salukami, outer space.

Dozens of Jaeger-class battlecruisers and five Knight-class star destroyers are attacking the main fleet of the Confederacy of Independent Systems led by General Grievous, and General Grievous is not in the mood to fight at this moment. The Republic fleet collided head-on, so he commanded the fleet and fought and retreated.

The master of the Jedi Council, Kit Festo, personally led an elite squadron of clone fighters to shuttle on the battlefield. This squadron is all equipped with new V-wing fighters. The excellent performance makes the Confederation of Independent Galaxies also a new type of combat unit. None of the triple robot fighters can resist.

However, when the fierce battle was in full swing, the face of Anakin Skywalker and the order of death appeared on the internal communication screens of the V-wing fighters who followed him along the way—[Execute Order 66! 】

Without any hesitation, all the fighters of this squadron fired at Master Kit Festo's fighter at the same time! Countless laser beams and missiles were fired from behind, making it impossible to guard against!

Not only that, but the surrounding battleships are also fully fired at the same time! All anti-aircraft fire is firing at Kit Festo!

The dense fire net instantly surrounded him!

I only saw the ETA-2 fighter jet flying around in the space with all its strength, but after all it couldn't dodge all the firepower. It was hit by anti-aircraft guns, hit by missiles, and finally exploded into a large burning fireball!

On the bridge of one of the Knight-class Star Destroyers, the clone commander put away the blaster pistol that was pointed at the captain's head just now. They put away their weapons.

"The order has been executed, well done." The clone commander dropped this sentence coldly, and led the other clone soldiers back to their respective posts.

...

Jedi Council Master Stass-Ali is also in command of the operation, and she is dealing with the raid on the outpost here by the Separatists from the direction of the planet Quill.

It's just that in the past few days Coruscant and the Jedi Order have disconnected by coincidence, and at the same time some sensational rumors are beginning to spread, which makes her feel a little uneasy.

After repelling yet another onslaught of Separatist battle droids, Stass-Ali resisted the army commander's plan to pursue the victory and shrink her army to the defense.

On this day, she was in the command center and suddenly saw a group of clone troopers approaching aggressively!
