Chapter 787: Seeking Skin From a Tiger
"Whatever the Republic wants to do, we Hutts are not afraid." Upon hearing Mira Han's words, Oruba snorted and said, "In fact, it's you, Mira Han. You've interfered too much in the war between the Desilijic Family and the Besadii Family. Involving yourself in our Hutts affairs is not something someone who wants to live longer should do."
"The matters of the Desilijic Family and the Besadii Family are their own choice. Zorba Desilijic has ruled the Desilijic Family for many years; he surely understands the reasoning involved, and I am merely doing some work for his money." Mira Han said, "Speaking of Terminus, you know this Planet actively joined the Galactic Republic and entered the war. This also indicates that your plan has failed."
"Hmph!" Oruba appeared quite displeased. "I've mentioned it before. The Republic doesn't concern me."
"If you are familiar with Wilhuff Tarkin's methods, you should understand that once he takes control of Terminus, you will have no chance. Don't forget, Terminus had already reached an agreement with Tarkin to suddenly join the Republic when we launched our attack, which is what caused us some unforeseen difficulties. Do you think he will continue to tolerate your actions?" Mira Han said.
"Alright, let's talk about your terms." Oruba agreed immediately.
He has a very sharp mind and quickly figured out the problem.
He initially targeted Terminus, hoping to take advantage of the direct and indirect conflicts between the two Largest Families of the Hutts—the Desilijic Family and the Besadii Family—to expand his own influence.
The Gorensla Family, as a newly emerging Family, has to struggle to carve out their share, whether in the Hutt Space or among the countless Smuggling Routes across the Galaxy. The sphere of influence had already been divided, and no share was left for them.
And Terminus is the target he has carefully chosen. As long as he can establish his influence here, he can control much of the Smuggling Activities in the Western Reaches of the Galaxy and Wild Space. Follow current novᴇls on NovᴇlFir(e).nᴇt
