Mission to Kamino ( Separatist Crisis ) Near the end of the Separatist Crisis , Jedi Knight Obi - Wan Kenobi traveled to the planet Kamino on a mission to investigate who was involved and responsible for the plot to assassin ate Senator Padmé Amidala of Naboo . Prelude . The Jedi High Council gave Jedi Knight Obi - Wan Kenobi the task of discovering the identity of the bounty hunter responsible for the plot to assassin ate Senator Padmé Amidala of Naboo . While his Padawan , Anakin Skywalker , was given an assignment by the Council to protect Amidala on Naboo , Kenobi went to see his old friend , the Besalisk Dexter Jettster who was nicknamed Dex — in Dex ' s Diner in order to find more information about a toxic dart that was taken from the body of Zam Wesell , who had been shot with the dart and killed before she could release information about the assassinate plot . Dex told Kenobi that the dart belonged to the Kaminoan s , a species who lived beyond the Outer Rim Territories . After he left the diner , Kenobi , with the assistance of Librarian Jocasta Nu , used the Jedi Archives to find the planet of Kamino , which was missing from the archives for unknown reasons , suggesting that it didn ' t exist . Troubled , Kenobi decided to discuss the issue with Jedi Yoda . In the Jedi Temple , Yoda was instructing a group of youngling s , which one of them suggested that Kamino had been erased from the archives , and Yoda told Kenobi to travel to the coordinates . Kenobi found Kamino where the coordinates said it should be , near the Rishi Maze . He landed on the rainy , ocean planet and was greeted by Kaminoan Taun We , who took Kenobi to Lama Su , the Prime Minister of Kamino . Su told Kenobi about a clone army that they had created for the Galactic Republic and to tell the Jedi Master Sifo - Dyas that the order will be shipped on schedule , confusing Kenobi as the Jedi Master had been dead for a decade . The two Kaminoans revealed that the host was a bounty hunter named Jango Fett . Taun We took Kenobi to Fett ' s living quarters in the capital , Tipoca City . Fett ' s genetically unaltered clone child , Boba Fett , allowed Taun We and the Jedi to enter . Jango soon approached the group , and We introduced the Jedi . Kenobi subtly interrogated Fett about the plot to assassinate Amidala , but Fett did not reveal any information . Fett , however , told Boba to close a closet door which contained his Mandalorian armor before answering his questions . He also denied knowledge of Sifo - Dyas , stating that he had been recruited by a man named Tyranus . As We and Kenobi exited Fett ' s quarters , Fett and his son prepared to leave Kamino immediately . Kenobi contacted Yoda and Jedi Master Mace Windu , who asked if the Kaminoans were involved in the assassination attempts but Kenobi disregarded this after he reported his discoveries , including that Sifo - Dyas had somehow managed to order a clone army for the Republic despite being long dead . Yoda ordered that he bring Fett back to Coruscant for further investigation . Duel . While loading cargo onto the " Slave I " , Kenobi ran out onto the landing platform where " Slave I " was docked . Kenobi ' s presence alerted young Boba , who shouted to his father that the Kenobi had found them . Kenobi ignited his lightsaber , which forced Fett to pull out his twin WESTAR - 34 blaster pistol s and open fire on the him who was able to deflected the blaster fire , forcing the bounty hunter to ignite his jetpack and hide himself on top of a lighting fixture who fired the jetpack ' s missile at the Jedi that exploded nearby , causing Kenobi to lose his lightsaber . Inside " Slave I " ; Boba activated the starship ' s heavy twin blaster cannon s and fired towards Kenobi . The shots hit nearby , and Kenobi was thrown backwards across the platform . Jango reemerged from the fixture and flew towards Kenobi , who Force jump ed and kicked Fett , knocking the bounty hunter to the ground , and causing him to loose both of his blasters . As the two engaged in hand - to - hand combat , Jango tried to grab onto the Jedi . With a quick kick at the bounty hunter ' s helmet , Jango was forced to release Kenobi . Upon regaining his feet , Fett stood up and headbutted Kenobi with his helmet , causing Kenobi to fall back onto the platform . The Jedi noticed his lightsaber near the edge of the platform and tried to call it to him . Jango shot his whipcord launcher at the Jedi , and the cord wrapped around the Jedi ' s outstretched hand and yanked him away from his lightsaber , dragging him across the platform . Kenobi tangled the whipcord around a lighting fixture , causing Jango to crash onto the platform . The jetpack was released from his armor and exploded nearby . Standing up , the bounty hunter grabbed onto one of his fallen blasters and fired at Kenobi , who was running towards Jango . Kenobi kicked Jango off the platform , and then realized that he was still connected to the whipcord around his hands . Kenobi was flipped onto the side of the platform and slid down towards Jango . Desperate to save his life , Jango activated a series of grappling tools on his arm and dug them into the platform to slow down his fall . Kenobi , however , slid past Jango and off over the edge of the platform , where he dangled , held by the whipcord . As Jango ' s grappling tools were failing due to the added weight , Jango released the whipcord , causing Kenobi to freefall down towards the ocean . Using the Force , Kenobi managed to throw the cord and attach it onto a structure below the platform . After making sure that the Jedi was nowhere to be seen , Jango used his grappling tools to crawl back to the top of the platform . Meanwhile , Kenobi flipped onto a ramp and reentered the city to catch up to Jango , who was boarding " Slave I " . Kenobi reemerged onto the platform and quickly recovered his lightsaber . Both Fetts , however , were aboard " Slave I " , which was now lifting off , and Kenobi to threw a homing beacon onto the side of the starship ' s hull . Aftermath . After Jango and Boba Fett left Kamino , Kenobi boarded his Delta - 7 Jedi Starfighter and tracked " Slave I " in the Geonosis ; the capital of the Confederacy of Independent Systems . Once more , Kenobi engaged Fett over the asteroid field above the planet and would go on to learn more of the assassination attempt on Amidala on Geonosis when he intercepted Fett .
