American Comic Dimensional Trading Device

With the technological essence of multiple universes combined, Yuri's army could easily defeat the Rising Sun Empire, as easily as beating a son.

It was only because of the unique nature of the Shinra Research Center that Nagasaki became one of Yuri's key targets in his attack, and that he did not immediately use weapons of mass destruction.

Unlike Tokyo, which went straight for the Ivan IV...

Yes, that's exactly what made Shinji Shimada despair.

Accompanied by a mushroom cloud that shook the earth today, Josie's dream of a great undertaking was easily accomplished by Yuri.

Their Emperor, so powerful and arrogant, is gone.

As for the Nagasaki main force, even the ultimate unit, the Oni King Mech, couldn't even get a hundred meters out of the camp before being blown up by a particle cannon from Yuri's spaceship.

Even the ultimate Super General Executioner mech only took fifty more steps than the regular Ghost King mech.

"You forced me to do this, so I have no choice but to release that devil!" After a long silence, Shinji Shimada raised his head with a ferocious expression and pressed the remote control that he had been hiding on his body.

The next second, the lights in the dark laboratory deep underground at the Shinra Research Center suddenly came on.

The figure inside a special culture tank also opened its eyes, and a bright blue light shone in its gaze.

The next second, the entire sturdy Shinra Research Center building was blasted apart from the inside by an invisible, powerful shockwave!

Such a terrifying scene instantly alerted Yuri, who was calmly observing the entire battle from his flagship.

...Damn it, my priesthood!

Upon seeing the exploded building, Yuri's expression instantly turned grim.

The Destroyer robot was alright; even if it was damaged by such a shockwave, it could be recycled.

But the priesthood might not be so.

An attack of this magnitude might not be able to protect them even with vibranium suits.

"How is the situation with the clergy?" Yuri asked immediately.

"Most of the priests have completed their mission and returned. There are probably still fifteen people in the building!" Fortunately, the news from below eased Yuri's expression somewhat. He could still afford the loss of fifteen people.

His gaze then shifted back to the ruins of the Shinra Group.

Is this power the true form of Yuriko?

That's amazing!

Chapter 243 Anakin

Josie was unaware that Yuri had easily swept through the Rising Sun Empire and destroyed the entire Shinra Research Center in the Red Alert world.

He was in no mood to care at that moment.

Because at this moment, he was facing a new trading partner, a partner who surprised and delighted him.

However, while there was a pleasant surprise, there was also a slight sense of regret.

Because this trade partner, like Abidis in the Azeroth universe, is still just a child, although Abidis is slightly older.

Fortunately, this child was even more sensible than Abidis, and Josie did not encounter too many obstacles in communicating with him.

The child's name is Anakin Skywalker, and he comes from the planet Tatooine in the Star Wars universe.

"Can you help me and my mother gain our freedom?" Anakin asked Josie after a preliminary exchange and learning what the dimensional trading device was.

"Of course, Anakin, I can mint countless Upi Upi coins if needed. I also possess other high-value items beyond your imagination. Not only can I buy your freedom, but I could even buy the entire planet Tatooine. I can even provide you with a massive robot army to wipe out Tatooine and make you its king... But child, what price are you willing to pay?"

Josie isn't exactly a Star Wars fan, and her knowledge of Star Wars is limited to the movies. She can't really assess the combat power levels in the Star Wars universe, so the claim that she wiped out Tatooine is basically just bragging.

But do you need to pay taxes for bragging? No.

However, acquiring Tatooine is indeed a possibility.

The Upi Upi he mentioned is the unique currency of Tatooine.

The most commonly used currency in Star Wars is the Galactic Credit, or Credit Bar. Whether it's the Old Republic, the Empire, or New Commonwealth Russia, they all use this currency because it is not issued by the government, but by a group called the Interstellar Banking Corporation.

Tatooine is an exception, as the planet is not part of the Republic but is part of the Hutt Space, which is controlled by the Hutts.

The currency used by the Hutts was a metal coin called Upi Upi.

Its purchasing power is slightly lower than that of credits; basically, 1 Upi Upi = 0.6 credits.

However, credits cannot be used in Tatooine.

Because Tatooine cannot use credits, Qui-Gon Jinn and Amidala were unable to redeem Anakin and his mother in the movie, nor could they pay for the repairs to their ship.

Anakin needs to win the shuttle race so they can repair the ship and gain their freedom.

How much money would be needed to ransom Anakin's mother?

It's only 200 black skins.

Anakin had previously shown this currency to Josie.

At first glance, it looks no different from a gold coin.

In fact, after metal detection, it turned out to be a gold coin, one of the things that Josie had no shortage of.

Although I don't understand why such an advanced world still uses gold as currency, it's a good thing for Josie, isn't it?

“I…I don’t know…” Anakin stammered upon hearing this. As a slave, he naturally didn’t think he could offer anything of value.

Without a doubt, Anakin, as the chosen one of the Force, was an exceptionally intelligent child. At the age of nine, he was able to assemble the etiquette robot C-3PO to help his mother with chores. His hands-on ability was even better than that of Tony Stark, the future genius of Josie's world.

But in the end, Anakin is only a nine-year-old child.

That's right, Anakin was only nine years old at this point in time and hadn't finished assembling the C-3PO yet.

This means that Qui-Gonjin and Amidala have not yet reached Tatooine.

It's fair to say that now is the best time for Josie to invest in Anakin.

Those were real Jedi Knights!

A hint of eagerness flashed in Josie's eyes.

However, timing is one thing, but things that are too easily obtained are not easily valued, especially for a child like Anakin whose worldview is not yet fully formed.

Josie shared this view in her attitude towards Abidis.

After all, they are two extremely important promising talents, and I cannot allow them to be misled because of my presence.

“Anakin, you actually possess potential beyond your own imagination, you just haven’t realized it yet… But I think you should have already discovered the difference between yourself and ordinary human children, right? Ordinary humans, let alone children, even an adult, can’t withstand the pressure of the shuttle, can they?” Josie said.

"Do you know why?" Anakin couldn't help but ask.

“Do you know about the Force?” Josie asked.

Anakin shook his head.

Unlike those who have just seen the movies and know what the Force is.

This thing has always been a very high-end concept in the Star Wars universe. The common people have no idea that it exists or how to train for the Force. Even Jedi Knights, unless they reach a certain level, are not unaware of what it is.

Not to mention a poor, slave boy from a remote, desolate planet.

Would a child in a poor mountain village in ancient times know what the Imperial Guards were?

Therefore, it's normal that Anakin knew nothing about the Force at this point.

So Josie explained the Force and the existence of the Jedi to Anakin.

After hearing Josie's explanation, Anakin's eyes lit up instantly.

Even with Josie's explanations, Anakin still struggles to grasp the true strength of the Force and the Jedi.

But he understood what Josie meant when she said that every Jedi was a great hero.

Which child hasn't dreamed of being a hero?

"I must become the most powerful Jedi in the world!" Just like that, Anakin, who didn't yet have a clear concept of what a Jedi was, immediately made up his mind.

"I do hope you become the most powerful Sith Lord..." Josie thought to herself.

After all, his code of conduct seems more like that of the Sith than the righteous Jedi.

"But how can I become a Jedi?" Anakin asked Josie again.

“Wait, child, the time will come soon. As long as you give me some of your blood regularly, I can send someone to redeem you and your mother, and then buy the shop in Wotu. You can then wait there for your fate!” Josie said with a smile.

Why Anakin's blood? Because of the filosomes in his blood that give him the Force.

According to the original storyline, fibroprotozoa are difficult to transplant, and even if transplanted, they cannot grant one the Force; only those with the original ability possess it.

But what if we can learn from others' experiences?

Josie has to try before she'll be satisfied, right?

"...Of course, shall we begin now? How can I give you my blood?" Anakin, upon hearing this, readily agreed, completely disregarding the possibility that such a transaction might cause him physical harm.

After all, that's freedom, something Anakin had always longed for since he was a child.

Many people say that you only know how precious freedom is after you've lost it.

For Anakin, however, that was a luxury he had never had before.

"Don't worry, child, I'll send someone over to help you get the training. You mustn't do it yourself!" Fortunately, Josie wasn't a heartless businessman. Although she was very eager for the Force, she didn't want to hurt this child with unlimited potential.
