Chapter 50 - Chapter Forty-Nine: The Hyperion!

Just as Koth and his team entered hyperspace, the Trade Federation and their Trandoshan allies on Alaris dispatched numerous droid forces to confront Attikook and Chewbacca's colonial team.

"Master, Koth just sent a message saying they've entered hyperspace and will soon reach the Kashyyyk system," Obi-Wan relayed the message to Great Master Qui-Gon, who was fighting on the front lines, after seeing Koth's holographic projection.

"Koth? How does he know about this?" Qui-Gon couldn't understand.

"Awoo, oh, whoa," Attikook, standing beside him, told Qui-Gon that they had called him.

"Wookiees have connections with Mandalorians?" Qui-Gon asked. Attikook then told Qui-Gon about Koth rescuing the captured Wookiees previously and giving them his business card, telling them to message him if they had an emergency.

"I didn't expect such a connection," Qui-Gon had just finished speaking when Vulture Droids in the sky began bombing the Wookiee camp on the ground, directly destroying the tent where the two were located.

Attikook, covered in dust, picked up his laser crossbow and shot at the Vulture Droids in the sky, while Wookiee cavalry riding Katarn faced the advancing B1 Battle Droid forces.

Tens of thousands of droid forces marched mightily towards the Wookiee front camp. The Wookiee cavalry, numbering only a few dozen, were completely unable to withstand the attack and were forced to retreat.

Meanwhile, deep in the jungle, hundreds of Trandoshan slavers were waiting for the Wookiees' ultimate defeat.

Seeing the cavalry beginning to retreat, Attikook dispatched more Wookiee crossbowmen to cover their withdrawal.

At the droid outpost behind them, the LUH-989 command droid, seeing the Wookiees still resisting stubbornly, pressed a button and deployed their newly developed superweapon—the Destroyer Droid.

"We need to retreat to the base behind us; there are tens of thousands of droids here!" Qui-Gon shouted to Chief Attikook, who was leading the Wookiee colony, deflecting a blaster bolt with his lightsaber.

"Awoo!" Attikook declared that he would not retreat and would not yield to those who were seizing his land.

But as the Destroyer Droid rolled out of the droid army at high speed and then rolled into the Wookiee crossbowmen's ranks, this battle was already lost.

The Destroyer stood up from its wheel form, activated its deflector shield, and aimed its twin laser cannons at Qui-Gon, who was attacking the B1 Battle Droids, firing a shot directly. Qui-Gon sensed the danger and leaped high backward, but the immense impact still blew Qui-Gon back two meters.

The Wookiees beside him, seeing how strong it was, immediately began attacking the Destroyer, but its shield was no joke. With the power of a laser crossbow, it would take at least ten seconds to destroy one Destroyer, but this time was enough for other forces to kill many Wookiees.

Attikook watched his kinsmen die one after another and had no choice but to order a retreat. But just as the Wookiees began to hide in the jungle, the long-hidden Trandoshan slavers began their operations.

"Watch out!" Qui-Gon shouted for everyone to be careful, but with pursuers behind and Trandoshans in the jungle, the Wookiees had no time to react and were directly caught by some Trandoshan traps.

Behind them, Obi-Wan, Chewbacca, and Shaolan were all anxious because no news had come from the front camp for a long time.

"Chewbacca, you and I will take some men to the front camp to see what's happening. Have Shaolan watch the camp," Obi-Wan told the equally anxious Chewbacca.

"Whoa!" Chewbacca nodded, took a few Wookiee warriors, and entered the jungle with Obi-Wan.

At this moment, in the jungle, Qui-Gon and Attikook had become separated, and the troops were in a state of high alert; any rustle would draw fire from the crossbowmen.

A group of Trandoshans perched in the trees watched Attikook and several Wookiee crossbowmen running through the jungle towards the rear camp.

Pekt's long tongue extended, licking his lips. He nodded to the several Trandoshans beside him, and instantly a large net rose from the ground, directly trapping Attikook and the other Wookiees.

One crossbowman forcefully tore open the net, and the few fell to the ground again. Pekt, from the tree, watched them cautiously observe their surroundings. What he wanted was to torment these Wookiees, to put them through mental anguish in repeated traps.

A large number of smoke grenades were thrown from the trees in all directions, directly engulfing the Wookiees and sending them into a panic. Several Trandoshans entered the smoke, capturing one Wookiee after another. Watching their companions disappear one by one made these Wookiees somewhat afraid, but they dared not rush out, fearing there might be more traps outside, until only Chief Attikook remained.

He watched his kinsmen gradually disappear and knew whose trick this was. Pekt, a slave, was a very famous slaver among the Wookiees. But hearing Chewbacca's shouts, he quickly shouted back to indicate his location, and the surrounding Trandoshans, fearing a prolonged situation, quickly dragged their spoils away.

Chewbacca heard his father's voice and rushed over with his men, only to see his father with multiple injuries. On the other side, Obi-Wan also found Great Master Qui-Gon with his men, but the droid forces behind them were already heading towards the Wookiees' last camp, and Vulture Droids in the sky roared, attacking the Wookiees in the jungle.

Just then, Obi-Wan's commlink buzzed. He answered it and heard Koth excitedly shout, "Who's calling the fleet!"

"This is?!"

"This is the hyperion! Hear her wrath!"

Then, a thousand-meter-long hyperion suddenly appeared in the sky, and its Yamato Cannon was charging and aiming at the Trade Federation's outpost. Various autocannons on the hyperion also aimed at the ground droid forces and airborne Vulture Droids and opened fire.

As the hyperion's most powerful weapon, the Yamato Cannon, completed its charge,

"The Yamato Cannon has completed ten percent of its charge, ready to fire!" the adjutant reported the Yamato Cannon's status.

"Yamato Cannon, fire!" Koth was beyond excited; this was the Yamato Cannon's first firing in the Star Wars Universe, but for the sake of the upcoming Wookiee colonization, he decided not to go for a kill shot.

Meanwhile, viking fighters swarmed out of the hangar. Orange Squadron and Gold Squadron faced these mindless Vulture Droids, destroying them in the sky with just one encounter!

As the gathered energy was fired, the entire outpost and droid forces on the ground were completely annihilated.

Everyone on the ground looked up at the hyperion, large enough to overshadow them, and its combat power, which instantly destroyed the entire outpost and droids, left them dumbfounded.

"Is this a new ship built by the Mandalorians?!" Obi-Wan exclaimed from below.

"Planetary defense forces can be this strong? But having such a powerful cruiser in the Outer Rim, won't the Republic investigate?" Qui-Gon pondered this.

However, they hadn't realized that this was only ten percent of the Yamato Cannon's attack power.
