The fact that the Trade Federation had simply run away was something neither the Galactic Republic commanders nor the Jedi Knights had anticipated.

Despite their resentment and helplessness, that was the reality, and they had no choice but to accept it.

Currently, it seems they simply do not have the strength to suppress that mysterious fleet.

Although the clone army fought a fierce and evenly matched battle with their opponents on land, the Galactic Republic, having lost control of the universe, could no longer allow them to continue fighting.

Doing so would only make the clone army a sitting duck for enemy warships, subjecting them to devastating attacks.

As the Trade Federation evacuated Geonosis with a wealth of valuable data and advanced robots, the massive warship, having completed its mission of destroying the robot manufacturing plant on Geonosis, quickly retrieved its carrier-based aircraft and army.

The heavily damaged patrol fleet had completely lost its ability to stop the enemy from leaving.

The Fuxing-class Star Destroyer and eight axial gun frigates swaggered away from the Republic Fleet, seemingly not taking them seriously at all.

Faced with such an arrogant enemy, the clone army could do nothing but watch helplessly as the enemy withdrew.

"We need more powerful warships and aircraft," Master Yoda exclaimed after reviewing the entire battle.

The moment the enemy successfully seized control of the universe, their defeat was already inevitable.

The enemy's fighter jets were like an impenetrable wall, tightly blocking the Jedi Knights' assault and rendering their attack completely ineffective.

The enemy warships completely suppressed the Republic's fleet, leaving it powerless to fight back on the battlefield.

While the fact that the Cheerleader-class cruisers were not adept at space warfare was a factor, this was not the fundamental reason for the Republic Fleet's defeat.

In fact, apart from newly built warships such as the Cheerleader-class cruisers, the Republic Parliament did not even have a single armed ship!

This is undoubtedly a huge legacy of history, leaving the Republic in a completely passive and vulnerable position when facing the enemy's powerful firepower.

Those triangular warships and those stick-like axial-gun warships became the nightmare of many commanders of the Galactic Republic in the days that followed.

The powerful firepower and advanced technology of these warships made the Republic's fleet appear so vulnerable in their presence.

However, the current commanders of the Republic remain convinced that as long as the new warships can be put into service as soon as possible, all problems will be solved.

Amidst the chaos, a battered Jedi fighter made a difficult emergency landing on Geonosis.

Numerous cheerleader-class cruisers also docked here, making the entire planet resemble a giant parking lot.

Obi-Wan Kenobi slowly emerged from the cockpit, his gaze sweeping over the bustling scene around him, but he did not, as usual, call for someone to repair his fighter jet.

During the intense battle just now, Obi-Wan sensed a familiar force from the dark side of the Force.

The source of this primal force was that special spherical fighter jet that had been relentlessly pursuing him.

This undoubtedly reveals a startling fact: this fleet actually belongs to the Sith!

The image of the mysterious Sith woman he had met earlier flashed into Obi-Wan's mind; her figure loomed faintly in his memory.

Obi-Wan Kenobi did not hesitate to pass on this important message to Master Yoda. When Master Yoda heard the news, his already furrowed brows became even more furrowed.

However, the focus at this moment was no longer on the Sith fleet itself, but on the Republic Parliament far away in Coruscant.

The combined attack of the Jedi and the clone army should have been invincible, but in the end they suffered a crushing defeat.

This outcome not only exposes Palpatine to severe accountability from numerous senators, but more importantly, it will seriously damage the credibility of the Galactic Republic.

After all, if even the mighty Jedi Knights and clone troop legions could not defeat the enemy, then the leaders of other planets would naturally have deep doubts about the Republic Council's ability to protect them.

This collapse of trust will plunge the galaxy into panic and chaos.

Palpatine, or rather Darth Sidious, was filled with anxiety at that moment.

His meticulously planned schemes seem to be spiraling out of control, and the Parliament's trust in him is gradually crumbling in the wake of this crushing defeat.

However, this event unexpectedly prompted the Galactic Republic Parliament to quickly pass a bill to expand its military and prepare for war.

Those planets whose interests were closely tied to Palpatine did not hesitate to start their war machines, and a storm was about to sweep across the entire galaxy.

Quarter Shipyard demonstrated remarkable efficiency, completing the construction of the new warship—the Jagdpanzer-class cruiser—in a short period of time.

Palpatine expressed great satisfaction when this colossal ship, hailed as the prototype for all Star Destroyers, made its first public appearance.

The Jagdpanzer-class cruisers far surpassed the Cheerleader-class cruisers in space warfare capabilities, and the latter were reclassified as landing ships after the lessons learned from this intense battle.

Palpatine, citing the insufficient number of clones, decisively proposed a bill to increase clone production.

Although the primary responsibility for this battle lay with the navy, the performance of the Stormtroopers also put immense pressure on the councilors of various planets.

Therefore, this bill, which aims to expand ground combat capabilities, also received the support of a majority of lawmakers.

Massive amounts of supplies began to be prepared. As the inner ring planet took the lead in expressing its stance, the members of the middle and outer ring planets who were still in the council had to start making full preparations for the upcoming war under tremendous pressure.

When the Jedi Knights finished cleaning up the battlefield and returned to Coruscant with the defeated soldiers, they were shocked by what they saw.

Coruscant, the once bustling capital planet, is now permeated with a thick atmosphere of war.

High above Coruscant, the brand-new Jagdpanzer-class cruisers, like a group of enormous steel behemoths, carried a newly trained legion of clones, cruising above the city.

The appearance of these cruisers gave people a sense of the Republic's powerful military strength.

Moreover, armies from various planets have gathered in the capital of this galactic republic.

They come from different races and cultures, but at this moment they have all come together for a common goal.

These troops brought a wide variety of weapons and equipment, creating a tense atmosphere on the streets of Coruscant.

Even more noteworthy is that a large number of old warships without weapons have been put back into service.

Although these warships are old, after being modified, they have been re-armed and are ready to return to the battlefield.

Palpatine seemed to have planned all of this in advance, and he arranged a grand military parade.

In parliament, he spoke passionately about the importance of the military parade in boosting national morale.

He believes that this military parade can showcase the Republic's military strength to various planets in the Milky Way, while also inspiring people's patriotism and fighting spirit.

Ultimately, the Jedi Knights and the clone army were also inexplicably drawn into this grand military parade.

Dressed in neat uniforms, they walked with firm steps through the streets of Coruscant.

While the parade was spectacular, it was filled with confusion and unease for the Jedi Knights.
