2246. The Outcast of the Planet Mandalore (Part 2) [By the way, let’s learn about the customs of the Mandalorians]
“Listen to me...” Jango Fett walked over and wanted to say something, but Boka Tan Kriz interrupted him by pointing a gun at his head.
"Shut up!" She said coldly: "I asked this kid to take off his helmet. It has nothing to do with you."
Click~~~ There was a mechanical connection. The sound came, and Boba Fett had already pressed the buttons on both sides of the helmet and took off the full-coverage helmet. Under the helmet, there is a young face with curly hair, dark skin, and thick lips. He is almost the same model as Jango Fett.
Although his eyebrows are still a little immature, his face is full of determination at this moment. And the most important thing is that there is no trace of transformation on him.
At this time, Jango Fett also took off his helmet and came over and said: "I did not require them to always wear helmets. Complying with the 'Six Actions' (Six Actions) is our only code of conduct."< br>
"Tell me, what are the six elements." Bo-Katan Kryze said while standing on Boba Fett's side.
Now the pistol in her hand is still pointed at his head, and without the shield of the helmet, this shot can directly hit his head.
"Wear the Armor of Mandalore, speak the language of Mandalore, raise the sons of Mandalore; protect your family, dedicate yourself to your clan, and obey your calling." Boba Fett answered very fluently.
"So, did you do it?" Bo-Katan Kryze asked coldly.
"I don't have any children yet, and other than that, I swear by the Six Elements as my code." Boba Fett replied.
The so-called Six Elements, also called Resol'nare in the Mandalorian language, are very simple six rules, which are also the core rules of all Mandalorians since ancient times. Since the racial composition of the Mandalorians is quite complex, all people who follow the Six Elements will be considered a part of Mandalore. Because of this, the six elements actually cover a very wide range. After all, different races have different habits and customs, so it is impossible to restrict them with a strict rule.
The reason why Jango Fett made an additional request when he joined Count Dooku's clone army plan was to have a clone that had not undergone growth acceleration as his son was actually what he complied with. A manifestation of the six elements.
However, because the meaning of six lines is very broad, there are many explanations. For example, some clans among the Mandalorians interpret the first of the six lines, "Wear the Mandalorian Armor," to mean that the helmet should never be taken off. As for the new Mandalorians led by Satine Kryze, their interpretation of this article is to wear unified Mandalorian armor when they need to fight.
The symbolic meaning of the helmet is actually completely different in the ancient traditions of the Mandalorians. During the ancient Mandalorian Crusades, helmets only had meaning for Mandalore, who ruled the entire Mandalorian people. For them, Mandalorian helmets were equivalent to crowns. Again, Mandalore here refers to the leader of the entire Mandalorian people.
So whether to wear a helmet or not actually doesn't matter in Mandalorian culture, it's just a different interpretation of the six lines. But the reason why many Mandalorians wear helmets most of the time is actually just habit, or a tribute to Mandalore.
(By the way, in the episode "The Mandalorian", Bo-Katan Kryze initially called the Armorer's group of 'Watching Sons' a cult. This is why - -Because they are indeed a branch of the Death Guard, there is nothing wrong with saying that the Death Guard is a cult. In addition, their traditions are indeed much more twisted and extreme than the normal traditions of the Mandalorians, and the Kryze family is, after all. One of the legitimate ruling families of the planet Mandalore, Bo-Katan Kryze is indeed qualified to sneer at the rules of the Watch Children as she showed, such as helmets, black swords, and so on. You have to take a bath in the spring to atone for your sins, etc.)
(As for the tradition of the Black Sword, it is just a new rule that has lasted for more than 40 years in the Death Guard. Except for the Death Guard, there is no one else. The Mandalorians do not recognize this thing at all. Of course, if there is anything in the Mandalorian culture that everyone must surrender to, it is indeed the Mandalorian. Luo's helmet. Of course, this is only useful in the era of the Mandalorian Crusade, which is how the Invincible Mandalore ascended to the throne)
So, the same six lines, different interpretations, are expressed. The rules are very different. In today's era, the six elements actually have more symbolic meaning than practical meaning.
Hearing Boba Fett's fluent answer, Bo-Katan Kryze snorted and said, "You did raise your son up to be a decent person. It's a pity that his father is just a despicable traitor."< br>
"Boba Fett is my only hope. I have carefully trained him according to Mandalorian standards so far, just to continue the Mandalorian tradition. I have indeed abandoned the six lines, no more This qualification, but Boba is different, he is a true Mandalorian," Jango Fett said.
Bo-Katan Kryze was silent for a while, then snorted coldly, put away his pistol, turned around and asked, "Why did you come to me?"
"Transcendent- Vizsla is slaughtering the people of Mandalore, and I can't just sit back and watch, but our power alone is far from enough to stop him," Jango Fett said.
"Hmph, just go find the Principality of Dawn and send a fleet over directly, and everything will be solved." Bo-Katan Kryze said coldly.
"If I do this, the planet Mandalore will only become more chaotic. The problems of the Mandalorians can only be solved by the Mandalorians. Super Vizsla, he touched this bottom line, twice... "Jango Fett raised two fingers, "The first time, thirty years ago, he used the Jedi to massacre our soldiers in the Battle of Galedran. The second time, he colluded with the unknown mastermind. , slaughtered our people. Because of these two things, Chaozhou Vizsla must be executed."
"So you came to me, hoping that I would stand up and let the Mandalorians rise up. Resist and shed more blood?" Bo-Katan Kryze's tone was still cold.
"I came to you because I hope to serve you as my lord and be driven by you. Then, we will fight together against the extraordinary Vizsla. After that, I would rather make my own decision and end my blasphemous life." Zhan Go-Fett said seriously.
As he spoke, he put his right fist on his chest, saluted solemnly, and said loudly: "This is the way! (This is the way!)" (End of this chapter)
